2025.01.21 00:44 CuteLittleKittenMeow Burning at the beginning of penetration
I've suddenly started experiencing a burning when starting penetration that wasn't there before. For context, I have sex every day except when I'm on my period. This past week I had my period and the day I started having sex again, during the initial penetration it burned so bad. After a few minutes the pain completely goes away but it's really painful for the first minute or two. It's never been like this before, and it's continued for the past few days. At first it would burn when I peed immediately after, but now it only burns during the initial penetration and no time after. Does anyone have experience with this? I've had UTIs/yeast infections before and this doesn't feel like that so I don't know

I have a Goodman Amana furnace that had stopped working, ended up being a fault in the control board. I ordered a new control board and installed it, now my furnace works but my thermostat isn't getting any power. I have made sure everything is wired properly about 10 times at this point, I changed the 3a fuse, I cleaned the condensation drain line, I tried to find the float safety switch but it appears I don't have one.
Does anyone know what the issue could be? My furnace was down for a bit so I don't know if that's what's causing the issue but I did have power to my thermostat before I replaced the control board.

2025.01.21 00:44 alcofrybasnasier "Interview" - Someone kindly reached out to me and asked some questions about what I think of the following topics. I was a bit busy at the time, so my answers were brief. I decided to take the questions, though, and expand on my answers. as an "interview" *The interviewer chooses to be anonymous.
Interviewer So can you tell me about why are you studying it all?
** alcofrybasnasier** I am studying and practicing Theurgy to ultimately experience union with the One. The insights that I have gained while practicing theurgy have helped me improve my self-confidence, illuminated with internal self-awareness, and enabled me to piece together a coherent narrative of my life experiences. Since I have begun practicing Theurgy I’ve recovered numerous memories that have lain dormant in my unconscious and which may have otherwise died. Their recovery has helped me answer nagging questions and to address long-standing emotional issues. While this might seem quite mundane, the level of what I consider to be magical moments has increased. Avenues of intellectual and spiritual awareness have grown.
Interviewer Do you consider yourself a Neoplatonist?
** alcofrybasnasier** More a Brunian Theurgist with Neoplatonic roots. Neoplatonism laid the foundation for thinking of the universe as an interconnected whole. My Neoplatonic allegiance is owed to Iamblichus, whose work on theurgical praxis includes contacting and maintaining relationships with otherworldly entities. I believe he learned this from the Egyptian Hermetists, along with their rituals and belief-patterns. His understanding of magic and theurgy is still misunderstood. Iamblichus believed that theurgy is philosophy in action. By way of purification one attains ever higher levels and states of consciousness and deeper insight into Reality.
Interviewer Brunian like Giordano Bruno? Right?
** alcofrybasnasier** Yes
Interviewer Why him though?
** alcofrybasnasier** Because he evangelized the new, true model of the universe and practiced Magic as part of this discovery. He attempted to rethink the entire basis of religious and philosophical metaphysics based on these scientific discoveries. Even though he did not discover the infinite universe, he understood its implications better than anyone else of his own time and even into the 20th c. If he had not been martyred and his work been understood, it’s possible the mind-body problem, the empty universe void of spiritual value, the materialist nightmare, and the religious and political
Interviewer How did you find out about him?
** alcofrybasnasier** To tell you the truth I believe I was guided to him by Hekate. She has guided my learning since I devoted myself to her. I have asked her to teach me the pathways of magic and wonder, and ever since my spiritual and intellectual path has become richer and more enlightening. I am finding new thinkers and encountering ideas that are expanding my self-awareness as wells my intellectual understanding of reality. Back to Bruno. He’s a very complex thinker, deeply profound but immensely rewarding. He’s the greatest Renaissance thinker and Magus, in my eyes. But he’s hard to understand because he’s extricating concepts and beliefs from Medieval ways of thinking, recalibrating them to Renaissance insights and then blazing past his contemporaries with immensely revolutionary scientific thought. The academics are still wildly divided on what he actually taught and the meaning of his work. When they discovered his magical writings that sent them all back to the drawing board. In my mind, most have tried to rationalize what these writings meant. Some even still seem to want to pass them off as aberrant. But I think Paola Zambelli is correct in her understanding of Bruno’s magical understanding.
Interviewer Hekate? A goddess of magic? How did you meet her?
** alcofrybasnasier** Yes. That’s a secret:) I can tell you it started with a buried memory, which I had unearthed during deep meditation. Now, it’s like I suddenly wok up and she was there. I have felt her presence several times. And she’s blessed me by teaching me about magic in my dreams.
Interviewer Alright I actually envy people who had some transcendental experiences I find it fascinating
** alcofrybasnasier** Absolutely. I’ve always sought the source of these people’s experiences and have sought them for myself. From the Beats to Zen to Romanticism to religious saints, I’ve sought what they experienced. If there’s been a mehod, I’ve thought about it and tried to see how I might implement in my life. I feel that I’ve experienced the sense of wholeness and oneness that many describe. My method has been more like what ken Kesey preached in the Electric KoolAid Acid Test. Taking acid in everyday life so that it’s not an exception to reality but is a real part of reality.
Eric Auerbach’s description of St Francis’s approach to spiritual reality also impacted me. Francis never read the Bible as a book. He lived it. When he heard the words from Bible he imagined himself there in front of Jesus as if it was everyday.
I wanted the same thing for any spiritual experience I might have. I didn’t want it to be a figment of my imagination or “psychological”. I wanted it to be as real as a hammer and nail but Transcendent at the same time.
As to method, my visions and paranormal experiences were a result of the rather hodgepodge, chaotic way I lived my life at the edge of society. Long periods of isolation and intense spiritual hermeneutics, as Algis Uzdavinys calls it. These helped me to create the conditions in which those experiences could happen.
Interviewer But as for me any spiritual practice is hard since I have problems with concentration And controlling my mind overall
** alcofrybasnasier** You might wish to look at prayer of the heart. No need to “control” thoughts, just let stuff flow through your brain. If you want, you can add a short mantra-type saying. Om, Hekate daughter of light, etc.
Interviewer How do u see magic by the way?
** alcofrybasnasier** It has several aspects. Perhaps the easiest to understand is the creation of circumstances whereby chance and coincidence correlate to create meaning and alter reality. Bruno calls magic knowledge put into action. He thought that it is the operational aspect of cosmology. That is, cosmology identifies and explains the origins of matter and spirit in the universe. Magic is the way that the individual can manifest in the world their understanding and awareness of cosmological principles.
At the most basic level, following Wylundt’s Book of Incense, magic increases the occurrence of coincidence. That is, if I have the conditions correct and my will is sufficiently focused I can make things happen that are in accord with my desires. Abstractly, it’s the coincidence of thoughts and materiality with one’s will. Using magic I can create the conditions under which things and events will increasingly align with my wishes and desires. Some people call this a form of confirmation bias, but that’s just a way to lie to oneself about one’s true power.
Another level of magic is what Stephen Skinner talks about: the invocation of otherworldly entities. Iamblichus’ cataloging of these entities provides an entry into understanding their activities in the mundane, everyday world. By petitioning them, I can gain their service in attaining various material or spiritual things.
Interviewer That looks hard
** alcofrybasnasier** The best things are hard
Interviewer Yeah Can you explain the concept of world soul to me please? It looks hard to get what it is
** alcofrybasnasier** World soul has many meanings, depending on who you ask. It originates from Plato’s Timaeus where it means the energy that sustains and gives life to all things in Nature. The Chaldean Oracles call this energy allay, or strength. It’s the literal power for things to exist and maintain themselves. There are parallels of this in Nietszche’s thoughts on the will to power. It has ramification in the political world but only as a substrate of what a community requires to begin to exist.
At one time, Hekate in the Chaldean Oracles was identified with the World Soul, but that has been found to be inaccurate. The notion of a World Soul was strongly fought against by the Catholic Church and its Fathers. No doubt, they felt that it detracted from the life-generating power of the Christos as depicted in the beginning of the Gosple According to John, as well as Paul’s epistle to the Colossians. There are echoes of the World Soul in the notion of the Holy Spirit.
In the Renaissance, Marsilio Ficino resurrected the idea and used it extensively in his theory of the progression of God’s powers throughout the universe. It served as the interface where natural and supernatural world connected. Perhaps Ficino was echoing the Chaldean Oracles where the Hekate calls the “a girdling, intellectual membrane” in Fragment 6.
Giordano Bruno - like with much else in his thought - exploded the metaphysical distinction between spiritual and material but there is in the world Mind and its spirit which correlates with World Soul. This is part of his teachings on panpsychism and animism.
***Interviewer* ** I remember Plotinus saying in enneads part 2 that world is reflects itself and therefore astrology works. Do you think it’s true?
** alcofrybasnasier** I don’t believe in astrology. I’m a Brunian, remember? :)
Like Bruno, I understand how astrology is a powerful mythology and ancient language that taps into aspects of the human that other ways don’t and cannot. I guess this would be a faint Jungian side to his thought. But I wouldn’t push that too far since Bruno was a realist philosophically and empirically. Magic doesn’t just live in the mind. There’s a cold hard, brute reality to the stranger levels of reality which he investigated. He believed in demons, and not in a “metaphorical” sense; in a “real”, everyday mundane reality sense. What you want to do with that in estimating his thought and its value is up to you. I personally have had experiences that do not obviate the reality of what he thought.
***Interviewer* ** What is Bruno’s view of magic?
** ** alcofrybasnasier** ** I mentioned some of this above. For Bruno, magic is knowledge. It can be used for good or bad. There’s a big debate among Brunian scholars about what Bruno meant by magic. Most of the commentators don’t like talking about it and are somewhat embarrassed that his writings on magic exist. It wasn’t until the late 19th century that they came to light, and some scholars at first denied their authenticity.
But when that was proven, they downplayed their importance in what he was doing, attempting to say it was merely a residue of his times and that he was trying to use the natural philosophy aspects of magic to formulate his thought on psychology. There’s even the idea that it could form a primitive form of modern scientific thinking, such that modern technology could be seen as “magic”.
Other scholars make his writing on magic central to his thought. They say he probably performed magical rites, perhaps following Trithemius and d’Abano’s grimoires.
I think magic is definitely central to Bruno’s thought. I think he did invoke entities for various reasons, perhaps intellectual and spiritual journeys. In many of his works, he starts out with imagery of traveling to the stars. This follows certain themes common in his day, like Dante’s journey thru hell, purgatory, and paradise. But they also read like the journeys that we read about in the so-called Mithras Liturgy and Eight Book of Moses.
Bruno felt that there were legitimate and illegitimate uses of magic. For instance, he cautioned against consorting with demons to produce false knowledge. He felt that that sort of knowledge must be gained through honest effort and strenuous intellectual reasoning. What he did produce as far as practical magic is on binding, where he identifies way to bind people to one’s will. Many have seen this as a primitive form of propaganda primer. I think of it as a very powerful form of Aristotle’s Rhetoric, which explains the ways to use speeches to persuade others to do one’s will.
That work stands as his most public statement on magical processes. He probably felt it was as much as he could have gotten away with without incurring Inquisitorial snooping. Of course, they were on the look out for him long before he penned that treatise, which he never had a chance to publish because he was martyred.
Paola Zambelli thinks that he would’ve written a companion treatise on binding entities, given the notes he left and the research into Trithemius and d’Abano. But again he did not have a chance to.
Interviewer It was long time ago [that I resd him] and I won’t say that I understood a lot
** alcofrybasnasier** It’s hard getting to the core of what Bruno means by magic, because he’s seeing it completely new and in a different light. This is the world-shattering light of his awareness of the infinite universe. He used the texts of d’Abano and Trithemius it seems, and he knew Agrippa very well.
This would be the second level of what Bruno means. The first level is seeing it as knowledge. What we call technology would fit under his first definition of magic I believe.
The second level involves actual magical praxis based on grimoires and invocation. For many contemporary scholars, this would not be like Bruno, since he stressed reason and rationality. But even in his most mystical text, the Heroic Frenzies, there’s wide disagreement over what he’s getting at. He’s definitely attacking the idea of Platonic rapture, but he’s following the goddess Diana and being consumed by her dogs. Is this the mystical rapture of the saint being consumed by the god or is he saying that it’s a stage in what will eventually evolve to a different state of awareness?
His commitment to the oneness of materiality and the spiritual would seem to align him with modern physicists who have broken through the old concepts of materialism and see the universe as manifestations of mind. Where time and space break down into illusory perceptions. The mundane everyday world becomes less knock on wood material and instead a collection of sensa that the mind pieces together according to convention and imagination have their reflection in Bruno’s work on mnemonics. This work is a really difficult part of his thought, but it seems to have links to his magic as well. It’s almost as if he teaches that the way we organize the pictures of how we understand ourselves and the world we can change reality as well.
All of his ideas challenge the notion of the individual and raise the question of our purpose in life. Consciousness remains a mystery and Bruno tackles this notion in his philosophy. One avenue of thought is that his new psychology based on magical concepts could bridge the fault between materiality and consciousness which is bugging physicists these days. Another avenue is the simple fact that the human will can affect materiality; that is, create the conditions in which coincidence and chance create situations beneficial to human activity. And finally, with his awareness of other intelligences, which he called demons, how they can be controlled and used for beneficial impact personally and communally.
Interviewer Isn’t [Bruno’s work] rooted in Neoplatonism and hermeticism? And what do you think about chaos magic?
** alcofrybasnasier** Rooted? His thought had some major influences from Neoplatonism and Hermetism. If you follow the groundbreaking work of Yates, you’d think Hermetism was the entirety. I wouldn’t disagree on Hermetism’s influence but I would disagree with her as to the idea that it was a dead end. There are others like Clucas and who see Bruno’s Hermetism as a powerful, meaningful way to describe his revolutionary thinking about the infinite universe, and the demise of the Ptolemaic model used by so many philosophers, theologians, and maguses. I like the direction that writers like Clucas, Ramon Mendoza, and Gatti take. They recognize his magical writings while celebrating his profound and prophetic anticipation of modern physical and astronomical concepts.
He was beginning to see a different path after his enlightenment around the infinite universe. The ontology and epistemology are completely different. He saw magic as a vocabulary for voicing the mystery and absurdity of the world. He felt the deep mysteriousness of nature, far beyond the level of simple calculation and hypothesis. That doesn’t mean he would’ve repudiated these, but he would have sided with those physicists and geneticists today who are finding an intelligence in the universe.
Anyway, the underlying assumptions of chaos magic seem apt. That is, I see the demythologization of magical principles and processes very akin to Bruno’s attempts to unlink magical from the Ptolemaic model and Christian metaphysics.
I am not so sure about Chaos Magic’s ethics. But I’m not that well-versed in Chaos Magic. I only understand what I gleaned from Burroughs, who called himself a-moral; almost anti-moral.
Interviewer What is the role of correspondences in magical practice in your opinion?
** alcofrybasnasier** There are definite psychological aspects to using what the neoplatonists call synthemata. These are divine elements of the sacred mystery which when combined together in rite create powerful links to the divine world. They have the power of purification and can energize us in our journey to the spiritual realms. Psychologically, one believes in a connection with various powers and process in nature, and ultimately impacting time-space.
Many people feel a connection with the artifacts of the earth. Who doesn’t feel attracted to various rocks, stick, and other natural artifacts? We can form emotional attachments to them. Built into this natural attraction, a long tradition of meaning and interpretation has built up. Books like the Cyranides and Aleisiter Crowley’s 777 lists the elements and the entire spectrum of links they have to terrestrial and celestial planes.
I believe it’ll take more research in Quantum physics to understand the spiritual links completely. Quantum physics gets called on a lot when it comes to the occult in nature. I don’t profess to understand Quantum physics. And I don’t say that even in the sense that Richard Feynman meant when he said, “Anyone who claims to understand quantum theory is either lying or crazy.” My ignorance of the subject doesn’t even rise to that level. But my imagination sure takes leaps when I hear the experts describe various quantum phenomena and their links to biology.
The quantum phenomenon of entanglement really does stand out for me as a legitimate way to explain correspondences. The apparent fact that once two particles come into contact and are forever entangled evokes tremendous imaginative associations. Whether what occurs at the minuscule levels of quantum reality plays out in the macroscopic mundane, everyday world is what we need to understand. Parapsychologists like Dean Radin seem to have experimental designs to test various aspects of these things and the experimental results show the reality.
Interviewer Does Bruno have the idea of sympathy in his works?
** alcofrybasnasier** Yes. He believes in panpsychism and in an animistic universe. All things are connected by Mind and spirit. Intelligence threads its ways throughout the universe. Contrary to modern science which basically sees chance ruling the connectedness of things, Bruno saw meaning and mind. The lowliest of things was connected with the highest. All things have soul, even rocks. This interconnectedness means that things impact each other, often in wonderful, mysterious, and magical ways. This concept must be linked up in the modern way of thinking as the quantum phenomenon of entanglement. In this scenario, once two particles interact they are forever entangled. They can be on separate ends of the universe and still be connected. An action on one is an action on the other. We need to think of ourselves in this way. Seeing the universal connectedness and panpsychism will begin to disintegrate the false ideals of solitary individualism, social classism, and religious intolerance.

2025.01.21 00:44 Subushie I need heads to help test my 'Custom Joker Framework' mod. Sign-up form attached.
I couldn't find a simple mod that allows user's to create custom Jokers. So I made one. Naming it 'Custom Joker Framework' (CJF) After some short testing with friends, I'm realizing that the possible interactions in-game will require more hands than I have. I need help from creative persons to QA their creations and report issues to me. Google Form to signup if interested. I would recommend having some basic technical understanding if you sign up (know the difference between a jpg and png, know how to copy/paste). Signup will close on 01/26, messages to applicants will be sent next week (01/27 - 01/24) describing the beta installation and a google form for reporting defects and feedback. I'm attaching the description that will be posted the Nexus below to help you see how it works before signing up. +++NEXUS PAGE+++ cjf header 'Custom Jokers Framework' is a mod allowing players to add their own custom Joker cards to the game using a JSON file and image of the card. At the moment the mod only allows the current existing Joker effects where you can adjust the parameters, I am planning to add new functionality soon and have it prepped, but I need to be sure the core functionality works for; outline of planned features are at the bottom. Custom Joker Framework allows users to create personal jokers with their own names, rarity, cost, image, applied effect, and card description. New Joker cards appear naturally within the game. Find them in Buffoon Packs or store based on the rarity. Actual edits I've made to the source code are minimal so should have almost no impact on other mods or core functionality. Instructions Note: BACK UP YOUR SAVE FILE BEFORE INSTALLATION. Mod hasn't broken a save yet, it actually integrates and is removed from existing saves then I thought, but better safe than sorry cuz it's deff possible. Installation: Using Nexus App
CJF Uses a straightforward JSON format to define all the card details, a formatting template and card PNG template is provided with the mod to assist with card design. JSON Usage Breakdown Note: The JSON file must contain all parameter's above in the correct format or the Mod will not accept it. I like to use https://jsoneditoronline.org to ensure I don't miss small things like commas. Add the information to a simple .txt file in notepad and rename the file extension to .json.
Disclaimer: These are the effects found in the source code and should work with this mod, however a majority are untested and I'm not 100% what they do or if they'll even work without further edits to mod.
