richlind33: OK, I did some quick research -- yes, wikipedia... yes, I feel ashamed lol -- and Satanism is considered by some to be an offshoot of Crowley's occult mishmash. So point to you for technical accuracy. Occultism is the better term.

toxicTom: Occultism fits, although it's a pretty broad term.

IMO a good way to get "into" Crowley is John Symonds' The Beast 666 https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/990537.The_Beast_666

Symonds is not a fan or follower of Crowley, but he has enough insight into the occult scene at of that time to both value Crowley's achievement and point out his failings.
Have you read the book, and if so, what did you take away from it?

I've read it twice, with more than 10 years in between... I gave me something each time, but to put it in words will take more time than I have right now, sorry ;-)

Is it true that Barbara Bush was his illegitimate daughter?

She does bear a striking resemblance to him. lol
So I've been seeing vids about this child named Desmond Is Amazing for a few months now, and I've come to the conclusion that his parents are amazingly fcked up. I can deal with this child being a "drag kid", but why is he dancing in a bar that serves liquor, being ogled by men and given "tips", and why is he hanging out with "Party Monster" Michael Alig, who served 17 years in prison for murdering his roommate/drug dealer???

Wow. o.O

Careful, you don't want to get into trouble for homo- or transphobia, do you?

Because nobody wants to go to a bar that doesn't serve liquor. DUH!

Living dangerously is how I roll. lol

But seriously, why is this child hanging out with a convicted felon that is still using hard drugs? What the hell?

I used to hate myself, tinyE, but I reached a point where I realized that I didn't have to, that I could choose to learn how to love myself. And so I did, and it was the wisest thing I've ever done, by far.

Of course it's totally degenerate, Desmond's parents are irresponsible sickos, and in a sane world, child protection services would intervene...but we're not living in a sane world.

If you keep doing that, you'll grow hair on your palms and go blind.
