Asking "is magic real?" is an inherent misunderstanding of what both "magic" and "real" are.

Yes. No. Either. Both. It's missing the point.

(Same for "god(s)")

The idea that things either Are or Aren't isn't a necessary, inherent feature of the universe. It's a philosophical claim.

One that's been presupposed by an entire culture and canon of philosophical thought, sure. But it's an ideology, not a conclusion.

Hi my name's katt and I feel like I've broken the universe a little.

@starkatt Don't worry. It needs breaking every now and then.

@starkatt y’know, if you’re gonna change the fabric of reality, you should probably at least have a burrito, a beer or a cigarette to bridge the gap.
