What the fuck is this? A curse didn't kill the man.

[–] Bebopalouie@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 hours ago

Hehe never seen final destination?

The curse puts the necessary things in place for it to happen I thought?

This might be the single greatest advertisement those etsy witches will ever get.

[–] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 73 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

The 2-3 weeks delivery time was, apparently, pretty spot on.

The article says they bought the curses at the end of August.

[–] RFKJrsBrainworm@sh.itjust.works 14 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Damnit....I just looked at the article publish date, I didn't read it...I suck

[–] I_Fart_Glitter@lemmy.world 10 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

Still pretty good for a brain worm! 🪱

[–] hddsx@lemmy.ca 3 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Dunno, that brain worm must be malnourished

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

feed the worm

Is "Etsy Witches" a new dark-web term for a hitman?

[–] gibmiser@lemmy.world 56 points 23 hours ago (3 children)

Oh lord, the fallout if it was one of these "witches" who got a gun and offed him

[–] hddsx@lemmy.ca 2 points 7 hours ago

In the style of the late great Charlie Kirk:

You know, I think this particular unfortunate death due to firearms is worth it to maintain our access to firearms.

[–] SPRUNT@lemmy.world 44 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

I don't think anyone would be surprised to find out the call is coming from inside the house.

The longer they continue protecting pedophiles, the more unhinged their unhinged base becomes.

[–] gibmiser@lemmy.world 27 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Wasn't charlie super pushing for trump to release the files then got called in by trump and shut up immediately after the meeting?

[–] SPRUNT@lemmy.world 27 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Well, one shot one kill from distance, and no suspect in custody.... Doesn't sound like an amateur.

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 21 points 22 hours ago (2 children)

Whoever it was, they didn't spaz out and get caught, just did the job and walked away.

[–] Noodle07@lemmy.world 12 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Just made sure not to go to McDonalds afterward

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 1 points 2 hours ago

Give them time

[–] SPRUNT@lemmy.world 11 points 22 hours ago

Well, if Etsy Witches are indeed witches, then hear my plea: May all video and image evidence they find of the Charlie Kirk shooter have a single suspect that looks exactly like Luigi Mangione.

[–] twice_hatch@midwest.social 9 points 20 hours ago

I'd really love a big fight between the people who wanted to protect pedophiles, and the people who were just racists and homophobes. Nicer to have two small rivals than one big one

[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 14 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

You gonna look twice at a goth chick with a cello case on a university campus?

[–] gibmiser@lemmy.world 25 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago) (2 children)

I mean hell yeah I am, but not for that reason...

[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 15 points 18 hours ago

I admit, after I wrote it, I anticipated the response.

[–] jballs@sh.itjust.works 11 points 18 hours ago

Lmao do you suppose this author would be charged for hiring a hit if that was the case and they didn't know?

Like, prostitutes ask if you want a "date". Drug dealers ask if you want to "party." Strangers online ask if you want to "curse" someone.

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 22 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

Literally pulling “The Alchemist” by H P Lovecraft into real life? Not on my bingo card

[–] brown567@sh.itjust.works 3 points 12 hours ago

Chuck Wizard's curse of shoot you in the face

[–] SPRUNT@lemmy.world 8 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

I'm really curious how complex the spell was.

I mean, I like to burn candles and the occasional incense stick, and curse at those motherfuckers a lot, but I don't want to be responsible for anything.

[–] gibmiser@lemmy.world 8 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Its why you never cast spells when drunk

[–] niktemadur@lemmy.world 6 points 14 hours ago

That's a movie elevator pitch, right?

Etsy witches got game fr

[–] dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 25 points 23 hours ago

I think it worked, y'all

[–] DarkDarkHouse@lemmy.sdf.org 15 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago) (1 children)

Well, here come the political witch hunts.

[–] Vanth@reddthat.com 8 points 20 hours ago

I've been traveling and not reading news for a couple days. This thread has been a hell of a way to hear about the shooting. Took me to the second comment to smell it.

[–] CurlyWurlies4All@slrpnk.net 10 points 21 hours ago

Thank God for the witches

[–] Olgratin_Magmatoe@slrpnk.net 5 points 18 hours ago
[–] atomicorange@lemmy.world 8 points 21 hours ago

The “poop your pants” hex apparently worked. This is what happens when you toy with forces beyond mortal ken!

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 6 points 22 hours ago (1 children)
[–] robocall@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

It's like US$3.50 for a witch on etsy

[–] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago

Only 3.50?

Man I could get a high end witch for $20 or even premium if I'm willing to splurge
