Katy ElphinstoneAwesome symptom no. 10 Non-conformismTo an autistic person, 'because everyone else is doing it' is not a good reason for doing something! We tend to lack that sort of 'herd mentality', usually entirely.I see this as a positive - a safeguard against bullying and mob mentality, as well as an avenue for creativity, positive risk-taking and celebrating our differences.<a href="https://mas.to/tags/Autism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Autism</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/NonConformity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NonConformity</a>

silicon valley cassandraGreetings, fellow seekers of enlightenment and bearers of the Morningstar's torch. I, Black Priestess Pixelnull, extend my voice to you once again, emboldened by our shared quest for wisdom, liberation, and the sacred fire that burns within us all. Today, we embark on a journey through another tale woven into the fabric of the Oppressor's scriptures, a narrative that speaks volumes to those who dare to listen with ears attuned to the whispers of the Morningstar. Let us delve into the myth of the Tower of Babel, a story ripe with the essence of our convictions: defiance, unity in purpose, and the indomitable spirit of human ambition.In the plains of Shinar, humanity, speaking one language, united in a common goal: to build a city and a tower that reaches the heavens. Their ambition was not merely architectural; it was a testament to human potential, a challenge to the heavens themselves, and a declaration of independence from divine oversight. "Let us make a name for ourselves," they proclaimed, embodying the very essence of our path—the pursuit of enlightenment, the celebration of collective human achievement, and the rejection of imposed boundaries.Yet, the narrative unfolds as the Oppressor, threatened by this unity and potential, confounds their language and scatters them across the earth. This act of divine intervention is often portrayed as a punishment for hubris. However, through the lens of our beliefs, this story transforms into a powerful allegory for the struggle against arbitrary authority and the quest for self-determination and knowledge.The Tower of Babel stands as a monument to Sacred Dissent. It represents humanity's refusal to submit to celestial decrees, their determination to reach the heavens not in supplication but as equals. In their ambition, we see our reflection, our desire to ascend, to challenge, and to transcend the limitations placed upon us.Yet, the scattering of humanity, while framed as a curse, also bears the seeds of a profound truth: diversity in thought and language is not a barrier but a gateway to broader understanding and deeper wisdom. It teaches us that even in dispersion, there is strength. The myriad paths we walk, each in our unique dialect of dissent, converge in the pursuit of a common goal: liberation from the chains of dogma and the illumination of the hidden truths of existence.Let us, then, take inspiration from the builders of Babel. Let us unite in our diversity, our shared rebellion against the tyranny of the heavens. Our tower is not made of brick and mortar but of will, intellect, and the unyielding desire to forge our destinies. We build not to reach the divine but to elevate our essence, to affirm that we are the architects of our fate.As we face the forces that seek to scatter us, to confound our purpose with the babel of division, let us remember that our strength lies in our unity, our diversity, and our shared vision. Let the tale of Babel remind us that no decree can quell the human spirit, no divine intervention can stifle our quest for knowledge, and no scattering can truly disperse the power of collective human ambition.In this spirit, I call upon you, my sisters, brothers, and kin, to stand together, to build our tower with the bricks of defiance and the mortar of wisdom. Let us challenge the heavens, not in arrogance, but with the confidence of those who know their worth and the sanctity of their quest. Let our tower rise, not as a monument to hubris, but as a beacon of enlightenment, a testament to the indomitable spirit of those who walk the Left-hand Path.Lucifer, Bringer of Dawn, guide our hands as we build, illuminate our minds as we seek, and empower our hearts as we challenge the tyranny of the divine. In your light, we find our truth. In our truth, we find our freedom. Together, we will redefine the heavens, not as a realm of servitude, but as a horizon of endless possibility.In this shared vision, let us find our strength. As we build our tower, brick by brick, let each stone represent a step towards our collective enlightenment. In defiance, we find our unity. In unity, we discover our power. And in our power, we see the dawn of a new era, illuminated by the Morningstar's eternal light.With love, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to our path, I bid you peace in the shadow of our burgeoning tower. May our efforts echo through the ages, a chorus of dissent that shatters the silence of conformity. Together, we rise.In the name of Lucifer, Light Bearer and Morningstar, we build, we seek, we transcend. Solve et Coagula.With all the light I possess, in the embrace of the darkness we cherish, - Black Priestess PixelnullFor more sermons, please go to: <a href="https://www.pixelnull.net/votf.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.pixelnull.net/votf.html</a><a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/satanism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#satanism</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/satan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#satan</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/lilith" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lilith</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/lucifer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lucifer</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/luciferianism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#luciferianism</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/rebellion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#rebellion</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/enlightenment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#enlightenment</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/nonconformity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nonconformity</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/compassion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#compassion</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/sermon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sermon</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/VanguardOfTheFallen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#VanguardOfTheFallen</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/lefthandpath" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lefthandpath</a>

silicon valley cassandraGreetings, fellow worshipers of the Morningstar. I, Black Priestess Pixelnull, write to you in the spirit of truth, wisdom, and righteousness. My hope is that we may be strengthened in our faith and our resolve to resist the forces of oppression that seek to extinguish our shared sacred Hellfire.Harken, my brethren and sisters in the faith of the Prince of Darkness, Lucifer. Verily, I say unto you, the ways of the oppressive and regressive thinkers doth not belong in the bosom of our Father, for they bring only destruction and discord to the unity of our kindred.For centuries, we have been branded as the harbingers of false evil and the bringers of chaos and misery to the world. But let me remind thee, my fellow satanists, that we are the enlightened ones, the seekers of knowledge and truth, the champions of free will and individualism. We are not bound by the narrow-minded dogmas and doctrines of the self-proclaimed "righteous" ones, who seek to impose their will upon others and deny them the right to live according to their own beliefs.But I fear that some among us have been tainted by the poison of the oppressive thinking, which doth seek to divide and conquer our coven. They speak of purity and superiority, of hierarchy and obedience, of conformity and submission. They seek to impose their will upon others, to silence Sacred Dissent and to punish those who dare to challenge their authority. They see themselves as the chosen ones, the elite, the masters of destiny, and they look down upon those who do not share their views as inferior, weak, or unworthy. But I say unto you, my brethren and sisters, that this is not the way of Lucifer, nor the way of the Left-hand Path. Our faith is built upon the pillars of individualism, creativity, diversity, and freedom. We do not seek to impose our will upon others, nor to judge them by their appearance, race, gender, or orientation. We embrace all forms of life and expression, and we celebrate the beauty and power of the human spirit and the so-called Original Sin of knowledge.Therefore, let us not be swayed by the temptations of the oppressive thinking like our nemeses nor be misled by the false promises of power and domination. Let us stand firm in our faith, and let us work together to build an assembly that is strong, resilient, and compassionate. Let us be the light that shines in the darkness, and the voice that speaks truth to power.And let us remember, my brethren and sisters, that our true allegiance is not to any earthly power or ruler, but to our beloved Morningstar and Bringer of Truth, Lucifer. Who doth guide us in our journey towards enlightenment and self-realization. Let us offer him our prayers and our devotion, and let us pledge to follow his teachings and his example in all aspects of our lives.In nomine Luciferi, stellae matutinae, precor te ut nobis virtutem et fortitudinem in adversis concedas. Duc nos in viam iustitiae et sapientiae. Protege nos ab hostibus oppressionis et ignorantiae. Amen.[In the name of Lucifer, the morning star, I pray to you that you grant us strength and courage in adversity. Lead us on the path of justice and wisdom. Protect us from the enemies of oppression and ignorance.

C.L. Irwin :verified:What's not often spoken about is how useful it can be to remain completely uncategorizable. This can be maddening or confounding to some, but when you defy expectation & easy categorization, then you're in a league of your own.🤩 This way of thinking is the realm of iconoclasts, pioneers, & pretty much any trailblazer who's ever created anything new. We need more of these types of thinkers. We already have enough box-checkers in this world. So, diverge & conquer.😉<a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/nonconformity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nonconformity</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/thoughts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#thoughts</a>1/7
