So some dude got sent to the hospital with cyanide poisoning because he was eating cherries and decided, for some fucking reason, to crack the pits open and eat the meat inside.

“I didn’t think nothin’ of it. Thought it was just a seed.” 

“Deep breath”

I SWEAR TO THE FUCKIN GODS…..

(cue 25 minutes of unintelligible yelling)

….and that is why being separated from our food’s origins and not knowing anything about botany is what is wrong with the world today goddamnit. 

[systlin]

I bet some people would eat castor beans too. Or yew. Or just fuckin’ snack on some hemlock because it’s natural, man. 

Fucking incredible. 

[systlin]

LIKE IT TAKES SOME FUCKING EFFORT TO GET A CHERRY PIT OPEN FUCKING W H Y

[arandomblackbook]

Question: Is it the same with plums? I used to do that occasionally when I ate dried and seasoned Asian plums as a kid.

[systlin]

Yes. 

Plum pits do not contain as much as cherry, but they do. 

Do not eat stone fruit pits, people. Or bitter almonds. 

They all have cyanide in them.

Oh boy, apricot kernels. The amount of people I see lauding those as a “cure for cancer” is… demoralizing. I can’t find it right now but I believe there was a mother in the past few years who was taken to court for child endangerment/neglect for feeding those to her very young child as a cancer treatment.

[systlin]

I saw this horror last year, and yelled for an entire hour. 

To be fair, I bet if you die of cyanide poisoning the cancer won’t kill you.

I have been wanting to use these photos for months.

The recommendation is to only eat 3 in one hour. because that is just the most filling snack and of course they will stop at three.

But then they say DON’T EAT MORE THEN 10 A DAY.

It’s not even FDA approved. “may be toxic”.

[systlin]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[beka-tiddalik]

Just because it’s natural doesn’t mean it’s good for you.

Just because it’s food for another creature doesn’t mean it’s fine for you.

Best case scenario it’s like grass which is basically neutral- it’s generally not going to kill you but there’s no nutrition for humans in it, and enough will probably make you sick.

Worst case scenario it’s something like belladonna berries which taste sweet but will kill you stone cold dead.

Same for the wrong kind of mushrooms, other berries, leaves and barks. Before consuming, CHECK. If you can’t check, don’t put it in your mouth.

Just because it’s natural doesn’t mean it’s good for you.

Just because it’s natural doesn’t mean it’s good for you.

Just because it’s natural doesn’t mean it’s good for you.

I’ve been saying this for so long, oh my gosh.

Friendly reminder that the laws on supplement labeling in the US are super lax and haven’t been updated since 1994. That’s nearly 25 years ago!

Oh hey, forgot to mention I tweeted @ apricotpower on twitter about how their product is poison and they blocked me.   You should all tweet at them too.

WITCHY REMINDER

All of these witchblrs that you are learning from, finding resources via, being inspired by, and asking for help are spending many many hours of their day working for free for your benefit. There are countless hours of research, practice, reading, trial-and-error, and personal evolution that lead to the knowledge we give out. Our insight is the product of our blood, sweat, and tears. It’s the accumulation of /so/ much effort and hard work.

What may look like a quick correspondence post, a tiny witch tip, or a simple reading likely took the knowledge of many days’ (or weeks, or months, or years) research and practice to build up to.

In order to answer your questions, they’ve probably had all of this as well as the rude anons, the accounts that demand free services, the hate mail, and the stress of everything else going on in their lives.

Please, thank your witchblrs. Learned something from a post? Say so? Like an idea? Compliment it! Have a favorite witchy blog? Go tell them how much you love them!!

There’s so much work that goes into this all. Please. Let your favorite blogs know how much you appreciate them. Gods know they deserve it.

Remember to take care of yourself. There is not a single reason that exists in this universe that would justify otherwise.

To any suicidal followers I may have: This is a sign to not kill yourself. You are loved and the world is special because you are in it.

When Someone Asks if You Cursed Them

[scaredykyleisgonnagosoon]

Them: Omg you’re a witch!? Have you cursed me before!?!

Me: Nah, you fuck up your life well enough on your own.

Something I’ve noticed is that some people who have no knowledge of witchcraft whatsoever have their own small rituals (whether consciously or not) and I’m so in love with it.

- A young boy I know tells me he wears a necklace to help him run faster, and whenever he looks at it he gets a boost of self-assurance and luck. And I couldn’t help but smile when he told me this - it’s his self-created talisman, whether he knows it or not.

- A woman I met recently told me that writing a letter to someone and then burning it is extremely cathartic. It reminds me of spells performed to release negative emotions.

- My mother has a cup of tea around the same time daily, using her favourite mug and sitting in her favourite chair as a way to reduce stress. A calming self-care ritual.

- Even before I discovered witchcraft, I did things as a child like projecting my anger and negative emotions into a stone and throwing it into a body of water so it would leave me alone. I felt better after that, even without knowing it was basically a spell.

I see it everywhere, all kinds of people doing relatively mundane things to achieve better outcomes for themselves: strength, calmness, healing and more. They have their own, personally-developed rituals and magicks - not necessarily of huge proportion or complexity, but effective nonetheless - and I find it so beautiful.
