I sent another email to their subscription support email address, even though the last one wasn't answered within a month.

I've also now tried their public Contact Us form to explain the billing issue.

If this doesn't work, I'm not sure what options I have besides disputing the transactions with my bank. I don't really want to do that.

I canceled a monthly subscription to a news outlet, and they've now billed me twice despite the cancellation

My account on their site says I have no subscription

I emailed them last month, no response

I can't find the link for their Discord anymore b/c it's a subscriber only benefit

Jer-Bear is grumpy

Aaaaand I’ve now deleted the two Instagram accounts I was using a couple years ago. I haven’t been on them for a while, but nevertheless, I will not tolerate Meta products anymore. Fedi is the place to be.

Really regretting selling my Horn of Greed a year ago 😭

Also, this will be the first time I've used true fetchlands (Bloodstained Mire and such), and holy crap they're awesome. No wonder they're so expensive. Getting two landfall triggers and the land enters the battlefield untapped. And it can tutor nonbasic lands with basic land types. So much value

OK here is 1.0 of my Lord Windgrace landfall deck.

It seems like a pretty balanced build that goldfishes well. Once the cards come in the mail and I sleeve it up, I'm very excited to put it to the test.

Primary wincon is tokens, secondary is a blowout with Exsanguinate et al.

Interested in comments and criticism!

And here's why I'm bothering with this project: I hadn't read the fine print on Principle 1, I thought it was about not believing everything you're told. Which is a fine principle, of course - but Atheopagan Principle 1 is specifically about religious experiences. It's about separating the subjective from the objective.

I wonder which areas of my life can be improved by being mindful of this principle.

I took the last few days off of my weekly #Atheopagan principle focus. Now it's week 1 of the new year, so I'll start off with principle 1: Skepticism and Critical Thinking.

"I understand the metaphorical is not literal."

This principle allows an Atheopagan to do many fun/meaningful Pagan things (work with gods, conduct rituals, etc) while remaining true to the "science-based" aspect of the faith. It encourages me to distinguish perception from reality.

A very enlightening, if depressing, read from Jezebel about how men accused of sexual assault at colleges can get special treatment out of it, while women victims get re-traumatized by the institution meant to help them. https://www.jezebel.com/not-only-do-campus-sexual-assailants-go-unpunished-they-also-often-get-special-treatment

Happy Midwinter y'all. May this toot find you cozy and warm, surrounded by blankets and loved ones of your choice, enduring the cold and dark until the return of springtime's embrace. #pagan

Maui Luna waits for me in the bathroom while I shower. Once I’m finished, sometimes she indulges me in singing the Happy Song:

🐻: 🎶If you’re happy and you know it, say meow 🎶

🐱: ❤️MEOW❤️

🐻: 🎶If you’re happy and you know it, say meow🎶

🐱: ❤️MEOW❤️

🐻: 🎶If you’re happy and you know it, and you really wanna show it, if you’re happy and you know it, say meow🎶

🐱: ❤️MEOW❤️

Y’all it makes my whole day 😍🥰

I've struggled with integrity all my life. I grew up without an authority figure who taught me what is right and what is wrong. My father was absent, and the only thing I learned from my mother was to hide from uncomfortable things, especially the government and racial minorities.

My sense of right & wrong has been hammered out by years of practice, and absorbing the words of better people than I on the Internet. It's an ongoing project, one day at a time.

I am a bad #Atheopagan. I don't even know the 13 Principles by heart. So, I have been doing a thing, in which each week I look at one of the principles and keep it in the back of my brain throughout the week, and see how it relates to my life. I'm supposed to also write about it, but I'm total shit at journaling and can't keep a habit.

Anyway, this week's principle is #12, Integrity. "I conduct myself with integrity in word and in deed." Seems super important these days.

I finished my first #Discworld book last night. On the advice of a reading order I found online, the book was Mort. I was pleased with the whimsical writing, the intriguing setting, and the relationship between Mort and Death. Looking forward to starting another one.

Happy Friday the 13th!! May a black cat cross your path. Not for misfortune, but because it would be one more cat in your life, and that’s wonderful. #witch
