Hi, I was the breakup ask! I’m sorry for not doing not research before sending you an ask. That’s something I actually do try to be conscious of /: I think what was driving me to ask you specifically was my wanting to know if you had any tried and true spells in *your* mind as opposed to a web search- but the phrasing didn’t make that super obvious. Also you’re not obligated to fix my or someone elses problems! Ever!! I hope I didnt give that impression either. Again I’m super sorry about that.

It’s totally fine, it’s something that’s been coming up a lot which is why there’s a couple posts about it on my blog – they weren’t targeted at you specifically and I apologize if they came across that way! And apologies for the misunderstanding, the problem with our main communication being writing on here is that sometimes things get misread or lost in our own personal translations. 

The closest thing I have to what you’re asking is this spell:

This spell has been super helpful for me, but a little edit I haven’t made is if you’re flushing paper down the toilet it should be toilet paper, not regular paper! You could also burn the paper. Hope this helps!

just so you know

the US minimum wage that we all agree is too low to live on ($15,080/yr) is far more than many legally disabled people receive in benefits

the maximum SSI for a single person is $8,796/yr
if a disabled person marries another, each drops to a max of $6,600/yr

while you’re fighting for 15 maybe look at that too

Not to mention we aren’t allowed to have more than $2,000 saved at a time. EVER. Like EVER or we lose all benefits completely. In the bank, in cash, it doesn’t matter. The government literally keeps us poor, while also making us pay immense amounts of money for health care that we require to even survive or function (let alone work enough to be able to get off of benefits, not to mention that there are a ton of people who will never be able to do that anyways). It’s a very, very broken system and not one that was ever meant to actually help anyone. 

Plus, “marriage equality” is still a huge problem for disabled people (as you can see), which is something almost everyone is ignorant to/doesn’t care about. 

DO NOT LEAVE DISABLED PEOPLE OUT OF YOUR ACTIVISM. 

Btw that’s $733 a MONTH they want us to use for rent, food, and everything else. I asked once why it’s so low- how that’s even fair. She responded that they only factor in how much it would cost for rent and for food (with food stamps). That’s it. That’s all the government thinks we need to live. Rent and food.

And in case you weren’t aware, the disabled cost of living is much higher than the fully abled cost of living.

Mobility aids are expensive.
Medications and supplements are expensive.
Special diets to accommodate illnesses are expensive.
Avoiding a long list of allergies is expensive.
Wheelchair accessible home and car modifications are expensive.
Hiring someone to do all your cleaning and laundry because you can’t is expensive.

And yet they still give us so little money that abled people couldn’t possibly live on it.

Also, disabled people often are less able to cook cheaper healthier meals, which almost always take more energy, time, and physical effort (not to mention being able to go grocery shopping) than, say, ordering a pizza, or even just throwing a premade pizza in the oven.

Just a reminder that I really appreciate it when people make an effort to research/find things before sending me an ask. A majority of the asks I get I simply link some tumblr searches and tags that lead people to dozens of resources. It’s not my job to search through those tags for you and I frankly don’t have the energy to do it. When I do link tags, it’s not to be passive aggressive, it’s just to give you the resources I would use. 

I’ve also gotten so many asks that are phrased perfectly for a google search, and while don’t (usually) simply copy and paste your words into a google search and link that – it is tempting! I’m a person, not a search engine. Google first, then ask people ❤

I am more than happy to:

  • Give you some search parameters and key words to use if you aren’t finding what you’re looking for.
  • Speak my opinion on certain things, or how I personally incorporate things into my practice.
  • Clarify conflicting information you find (if I can).
  • Answer additional questions you have (if I can).
  • Post your question to my followers if I don’t have an answer for you to the above things!
  • Honestly if you take the time and look and tell me that, I appreciate you SO MUCH! It feels like you value my time, my energy, and my input. 
  • Also a huge thank you to everyone who is polite in their asks! 

This is not to be elitist or rude, but witchcraft involves a time investment and research – please don’t expect me to do those things for you if you don’t also put effort in!

Important to remember, witches! The witch community has compiled such incredible searchable resources. Bigger bloggers like Mouse can get hundreds of asks, and in most cases, this is their hobby, not their job. Witchblur is also populated by quite a few spoonie, neurodiverse, and poor witches who often have limits on both their time and energy. Please be considerate of that and save your search engine questions for Google, or their resources pages. So many of us have a resource page already compiled – even me, and I’m not even a big blog. Take advantage of it and be respectful.

❤️❤️❤️❤️
