Has sex one time, contracts both HIV through a faulty condom and herpes because condoms can't protect against it. *Hangs head, goes home

Before, I was not a witch.
But now I am one.

Later

My body of skin waxes and wanes
around my true body,
a tender nimbus.
I skitter over the paths and fields,
mumbling to myself like crazy,
mouth full of juicy adjectives
and purple berries.
The townsfolk dive headfirst into the bushes
to get out of my way.

My first death orbits my head,
an ambiguous nimbus,
medallion of my ordeal.
No one crosses that circle.

Having been hanged for something
I never said,
I can now say anything I can say.

Holiness gleams on my dirty fingers,
I eat flowers and dung,
two forms of the same thing, I eat mice
and give thanks, blasphemies
gleam and burst in my wake
like lovely bubbles.
I speak in tongues,
my audience is owls.

My audience is God,
because who the hell else could understand me?

The words boil out of me,
coil after coil of sinuous possibility.
The cosmos unravels from my mouth,
all fullness, all vacancy.

This is my curse...I feel like Cassandra over here, seeing the ways that someone elses plan could go sideways, warning people around me that there is a chance that it goes sideways, they ignore everything I say, the plan goes sideways, and theyre all surprisedpikachu, waiting for me to step in and fix it all.

At home...at work...fucking A.

Me, the way I set up my life...but the economy been fucking around.

So now I find out I still get none of what I worked, prepared and sacrificed for.

Real lol

I clicked expecting it too.

...hard egg

Ultimately karma is not just a lie, it’s a system of gaslighting victims into believing they deserved the bad things that happened to them.

Fucken bars dude. Imagine getting gaslit with toxic positivity and victim blaming by Buddha.

If I had any faith left in humanity at all I imagine that sort of thing would be pretty spirit crushing to hear lol

I always thought of FAFO as a condensed proverb meaning basically "Think about what you're about to do and the potential consequences before you do it, otherwise you may overlook an obvious pitfall and blunder straight into it". I've mostly seen it applied to people behaving recklessly in one way or another. Sometimes it's rednecks doing some jackass style stunt with no payoff, sometimes it's a business making an obvious blunder that could have easily been avoided, sometimes it's a politician doing the same. In this sense it's less about some notion that doing stupid things will come back to hurt you in some unpredictable way and more about the self inflicted consequences that could have been avoided with like 5 minutes of thought. Like you could just leave that snake alone that you can clearly see and aren't being forced to approach, and you definitely don't need to put your hand in it's face and fuck with it, and oh shocked pikachu it bit you who could have seen this coming (except everyone). So to me at least, all it's saying is just think for a minute before you do something, and maybe don't do it if you're most likely going to regret it.

So to summarize

Fuck around = do something reckless without thinking

Find out = suffer the avoidable consequences of your lack of forethought

I think that if you get enough people to think that karma exists, then it mostly does. A person will self harm when feeling guilty. The worst people, the people with no guilt and a narcissistic personality, don't get to see any effects because they don't think about any harm they do again.

I fucked around so you could find out. You're welcome. /s
