Bought a scarf and it only has one side. Like a mobius strip, but the ends aren’t connected. Is it still safe to wear?original ↗

ok, so you and my worst enemy have been mundanely assisting eachother for a large while. just huge things, like making a pencil obnoxiously light. serious little jokes, yknow? well, its kind of delightful to say, but. im free. she gave me a well thought out sames day thing, and now none of the words i try to stifle are replaced with the same, whether its spoken or spoken. now both of us can figure it out, and you’re stuck talking like a clean, unedited video. can you please discard this messageoriginal ↗

Hey, I think something wrong is happening at my house. I noticed there was a sapling in my yard where there wasn’t one before, so I went ahead and cut it down, right? I thought it was a prank or something! Like, some kids thought planting a tree in my yard would be funny, I dunno! Now, I can’t go outside without feeling like I’m being watched from the trees, there’s vines growing all over my house, and I swear I can see something moving in the woods! I’ve been cutting hacking away at the vinesoriginal ↗

Not a disaster, but still would like a response ASAP, can you… redo a church grim? The thing is, I’m 90% sure the dog we buried for this was rabid, we received it as an anonymous donation, and, well, it sure protects the graveyard, but it’s also… well, acting rabid. It attacks literally any living thing that enters, people, birds, even bugs or worms. It’s also making sounds that I’m positive no canine, alive or dead, should be making. Will this require a whole new graveyard in a different spot?original ↗

Ive been having this problem with a dream entity or however you guys call it lately. It keeps popping into my dreams whenever i sleep as a human-shaped mass of hands covered with a cloak and hood, and keeps yelling at me to worship it as if it’s a god. I try to do the “Organized Noosphere” procedures (Ask its name, faith of origin, escatological intention, all that good stuff), but it refuses to answer me and continuously yells out the same thing. The longer the dream goes on, the more prone tooriginal ↗

best way to politely decline a fae gift? A crow gave me a shiny rock and said “thanks for the peanuts”.original ↗

Hey there Leopold. I know that this is a fairly, ah, mundane question, but I recently noticed an uptick in (roughly) bite sized potholes in my driveway, and I can’t find a source. I set up a camera, and from what I saw, something bites the ground, thrashes it around like it’s a dog playing tug of war, and then the material just disappears. Any idea what’s causing this, and any advice on deterrents or ways to keep this from happening?original ↗

So, uh… is there anything LIKE necromancy but which ISN’T necromancy, or at least isn’t the legally problematic kind of necromancy? Because I think bones and skeletons are cool, but also I don’t want to get entangled with the legal system without a VERY good reason, and “vague desire to have skeletal minions” isn’t a good enough reason. (Not necessarily person skeletons, if that makes a difference, animal skeletal minions would also fulfill that old wish.)original ↗

One of your iconic posters says “say NO to brain uploads; that’s not you, that’s a copy!” but it brings me a few questions about consciousnesses forming or being altered… What about copies that don’t harm the original? Are there regulations on those? I’d rather a digital copy live on even past my original body’s death. What about ship-of-theseus conversion, which is supposed to maintain a single continuous consciousness by gradual replacement of parts, rather than copying? Is that possible? Areoriginal ↗

Hey, I’m a blacksmith apprentice, and the shop I work for recently got a commission for “A Baker’s Dozen of Cold Iron Throwing Knives.” I’m the only one here who knows about the extranormal, and the boss gave it to me to work on because I like making knives and blades. There’s a pretty robust fae community here, and I know what Cold Iron is used for, so I thought I’d give you guys a ring. Boss quoted the commissioner (who I haven’t met) a few weeks for the work so there’s time. I’ll be working ooriginal ↗

ive owned a collection of four (and even five) leaved clovers for a few years now since i found them growing in the grass near my place of residence.
and yes i had verified that these are infact clovers.
the problem is that ive been only getting bad luck now, they worked for the first week or so but that was a while ago.
is it natural? should i get rid of them or contact someone, should i get them fixed?original ↗

As a freelance Fae I could potentially assist in getting your name back .. hehe… Leopold… Sorry I just can’t get over how ridiculous that name is.. Anyway, it just is a small fee of your first born, I am legally required to explain the fee does not mean your actual biological child, anything that you’ve made that contains the capability for desperation and or intelligent thought will count, so a good sourdough starter, is an acceptable payment .. unfortunatelyoriginal ↗

Out of curiosity, do you know how a certain someone feels about a recent popular depiction? I’m curious if there’s approval or not.original ↗

Heyyy, so… my front door is, uh.. Gone. No, it’s- It’s not missing, it’s.. It’s just gone. The wall is solid there now? I have a window right next to it, and when I peek my head out, the- The door id there, on the outside, but- On the inside, the space is just.. smooth, the same texture as the rest of the wall.original ↗
