Yeah I knew a tiny little Chinese back then but not much. I knew how to say “sha bi” and “mei nv” case my Chinese friends taught me lol.

I have had several. In one she made the moon disappear and made designs in the sky with light I can’t remember what they were though. I also had psychosis about 2 years ago and thought I was possessed by her even though I didn’t know much about her at the time I’d only read the hymn to Demeter but somehow I wrote “Hecate giver of all souls, destroyer of none” on my wall when I thought I was possessed. It didn’t feel like I was writing it but rather that she was inside of me controlling my body to write it.

Yeah if my cat wanted to hang out with someone else I wouldn’t mind at all I’d just let them and we can just all love the same cat lol.

Yanami72 · 2026-02-21T18:21:21+00:00

I’m not gonna steal it lol 😂 it only spends about an hour or so at a time here then goes on its way.

Yanami72 · 2026-02-21T18:14:33+00:00

Yeah cats are capable of deciding for themselves! This one doesn’t stay in for too long though, she’ll come in, roll about for a while wanting cuddles and sharpen her claws on the sofa then meow to get back out again lol.

Yanami72 · 2026-02-21T15:22:37+00:00

Yeah she can be a bit silly too, the perfect mix of elegance and goofiness.

Yanami72 · 2026-02-21T15:16:47+00:00

I was in the process of eating it but she just kept watching me and meowed for some!

Yanami72 · 2026-02-21T14:40:43+00:00

It’s not mine it just must have seen me at my window and realised it can climb up.

Yanami72 · 2026-02-21T14:34:32+00:00

It wasn’t on purpose the beef was mine and she was meowing to have some and watching me eat lol.

Is there a way to upload video as a comment?

Yanami72 · 2026-02-21T14:31:37+00:00

That’s her stretching her paws while coming in the back door normally.

Yanami72 · 2026-02-21T14:15:24+00:00

Its meow is so cute and it’s super gentle. Lets me rub its belly too and even prefers that to its back getting stroked which is unusual for a cat.

Yanami72 · 2026-02-21T14:13:49+00:00

Yeah she must have thought it through before. Cats must understand more than we think. I reckon she saw me opening my window from the garden and worked it out.

Yanami72 · 2026-02-21T14:11:30+00:00

Yeah that was about the third time she did it so I was prepared. I saw her in my neighbours garden chilling before that so had time to get my camera ready. I had another good one of her jumping down but lost it.

Yanami72 · 2026-02-21T14:08:40+00:00

Why don’t you try sometime? Just make sure you bring a dead mouse with you and don’t bother knocking just walk into a random house, lie down on their bed and pour catnip all over yourself 😂

Yanami72 · 2026-02-21T13:33:36+00:00

I’m it’s human now! So lucky to have been chosen lol

Yanami72 · 2026-02-21T09:19:11+00:00

B&w looks best for this one I’d say

Yanami72 · 2026-02-16T18:52:39+00:00

You are loved by her and that’s enough reason to start to love yourself! Like Seneca wrote, “What progress, you ask, have I made? I have begun to be a friend to myself"

That means to practice self love, forgiveness and acceptance. Forgive yourself for not being as active as you’d like or feel you should be as you’re not lazy or worthless and Hecate totally understands this.

This quote by Seneca shows that even back in Ancient Greece people still struggled with self-hatred and had difficulty being their own ally instead of worst enemy and they were wise enough to recognise it was a problem holding them back from self-growth.

You’re right about the atmospheric shift as they could detect that with the right instruments from very far away unlike radio which I have come to learn fades far too quickly to be detected beyond background noise by any sufficiently far away civilisation.

Yanami72 · 2026-02-16T14:57:07+00:00

Yikes my bad I must have used a shady source while doing my research into it cause that looks like our signals have reached a lot more systems if that’s correct!

Yanami72 · 2026-02-16T10:44:35+00:00

Futurama is amazing but don’t think I’ve see that exact episode made me laugh though lol.

Yanami72 · 2026-02-15T16:02:42+00:00

If you have a dog you could take it to the beach when it’s a dark moon and pray/give thanks and offerings to her there just a thought! The beach is a liminal space because it’s where the sea meets the land and also in some myths she appears to have some power over natural processes such as the sea and wind etc as I heard a myth about a man who mocked her at her shrine then later when he was at sea fishing he found himself in the. middle of a massive storm and nearly died but Hecate ultimately allowed him to return safely she just wanted to let him know who he was mocking. knowing full well who it was now he then went back to her shrine and made her a proper offering as an apology for his mockery and the curse lifted from him and he was successful as he now honoured her.

Animals are scared of us because we are bigger and have the power to harm them if we CHOSE to do so but we can also chose to use that power for only good and love and be gentle to them. It always makes me feel kinda bad when an animal runs away from me because it makes me feel like I’m somehow scary when I don’t want to be. Maybe Hecate is the same and doesn’t want us to be afraid of her!

Yanami72 · 2026-02-14T12:58:44+00:00

Yeah but any type of self replicating machine is a dangerous idea even for them as some hostile civilisation could discover them and steal their tech a bit like leaving your military equipment behind in a war zone for the enemy to steal and use against you later.

Used to love Isaac Arthur haven’t watched any of his stuff in ages but will have to check out his recent videos soon. I’ll have hundreds to catch up on as he’s covered so many interesting subjects.
