The prompt is #Substance
The Cure, “A Short Term Effect” from Pornography, 1982
Lyric:
A day without substance, a change of thought
An atmosphere that rots with time
Colours that flicker in water, a short term effect
#TheCure had evolved steadily since their debut,Three Imaginary Boys, by the time they produced this atmospheric proto-#goth release.
I can't help but hear these lyrics as almost comically stereotypically goth-dreary now - the perspective of maturity, or world-weary cynicism? -
but they do reflect lead and driving force #RobertSmith's self awareness about the substances he and his bandmates were reputed to be indulging in at the time, and when I let go and sink into the music, yeah, it still works.
Happy anniversary to Joy Division’s single “Love Will Tear Us Apart”. Released this week in 1980. #joydivision #iancurtis #lovewilltearusapart #substance #factoryrecords #petersaville
The Witch’s Toolkit: Sound, Substance, and Sight
Over the years, I’ve taught classes and presented workshops on a variety of topics… and I’ve written about many more here on my blog — everything from Alchemy to Yule (sorry, couldn’t think of a cool witchy word that started with “Z” to fully complete the A – Z effect).
But three of them in particular have stuck out to me as being the most important and impactful.
And while I won’t frequently post or fill your inboxes with something like this, I am really excited for what I’m about to tell you. Aside from my wife, you’re the FIRST to hear…
This summer, I’ll be offering a class series that explores three different topics in depth. I’m calling it “The Witch’s Toolkit: Sound, Substance, and Sight.”
The Witch’s Toolkit: Sound, Substance, and Sight
Starting in June, we’ll meet for one class a month. They’ll all be live and online via Zoom, so no worries about having to meet somewhere physically in person. And if you can’t make the exact date and time, I’ll have recorded replays for you to watch. You can choose a single class for $25, but there’s a discounted rate if you want to attend the entire series.
The first class, “Harnessing the Power of Sound,” will teach you new and exciting ways to incorporate sound and music into your practice. No, it isn’t a singing class, but I will be helping you hone your magickal voice. The second class, “Crafting Magickal Fluid Condensers,” will take a look at substances that can transform your spellwork. You’ll learn how to make custom fluid condensers at home and also understand that they’re already all around us. And the third class, “Intuitive Reading with the Runes,” will primarily focus on the Elder Futhark alphabet, but some of the intuitive concepts we’ll go over can be applied to any form of divination.
Look, it doesn’t matter what path or tradition you follow — these are things that we can all benefit from talking about. And there’s no pre-requisites or existing skill levels required — you can come as a baby witch or as an experienced practitioner. All are welcome!
Here’s a closer look at each one of the classes…

Substance from 1992 still relevant today. Existential dread as catchy pop
We danced the dirt with
Surrender for our drumbeat
Danced for the balance sheet
Died for the kind of
Lasting peace that pleases the world policeman
& fatherland raped motherhood
& told her it was for the global good
& now we ring the mission bell
To warn their children

Song: The Apology Of The Thai Drug Runner
By: TISM

Take this package quickly pal
They've come to chain me fuckin down
They bolt me to a concrete floor
Don't get all moral son
There's 60 of us goes in here
We all think that drugs are fun
Fifty years in a Thailand hell
Twenty grams of smack up my ass
Why? 'Cause drugs are fuckin fun
Why the fuck you need to ask?
Let's do the deal
Hey! It's #FortnightFridayMusic

Song: Genius
By: Custard

Doubling on Custard (nod to @electric_gumball ).
Count the numbers two and four and
Sit down on the couch
Listen to the vibrations
Coming from their mouths
He's 38 and reinvites himself into his life
He says he's never been there, he say neither has my wife
The camera dollies round and disappears from sight
It takes substance to re-evaluate your life.

Jim Croce - Time In A Bottle
"If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I'd like to do
Is to save every day 'til eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you"
For #Substance themed #FortnightFridayMusic
Swamp Dogg - Synthetic world
"Your world is plastic
Can see through to the other side
Your cities are made of wood
Antiques are what you've got inside
Houses are paper
But folks don't hear a word you say
Friendship's like acid
It burns as it slides away
So you see, my patience is growin' thin
With this synthetic world we're livin' in"
For #Substance themed #FortnightFridayMusic
Sweet Bitter Love - Aretha Franklin
"Sweet, sweet bitter love
The taste still lingers
Going through my helpless fingers
You slipped away
Ooh, yes you did"

MacArthur Park - Paul Shaffer + CBS Orchestra feat. Jim Webb
"MacArthur's Park is melting in the dark
All the sweet, green icing flowing down
Someone left the cake out in the rain
I don't think that I can take it
'Cause it took so long to bake it
And I'll never have that recipe again, oh no"
