I Can Fix Him

A close up look at a white A4 poster glued, probably with wheat paste, onto a disused glass door of a shop. The remnants of a mostly-scraped off poster are above, and there is an old sticker advising what credit and debit cards the shop used to accept. There is a graffiti tag in rich purple paint obscuring some of the main poster, but it can just be seen through, a bit, with a close enough look.


The main poster is drawn on white paper with, probably, a semi-thick felt-tipped pen. It simply depicts a woman with hair down to at least her shoulders, full lips and big eyes that have long lashes. She is drawn with only the most essential of features. Words above her head read "I Can Fix Him.


The poster is signed BIMB0, whose website is at https://bimb0.bigcartel.com/ and contains links to the artist's instagram and Tik Tok.

Spiritually Convenient Landline

We look at a display in a shop. It is magnificently garish. The colour pink leaps out at us, a defence against those who only love dullness and drabness. The walls are pink, the shelves on the wall to our right are pink, the cylindrical display pedestal right in front of us is pink. On a far wall, above a cabinet fridge, the words "Spiritual Convenience" are painted. On the shelves to our right are dozens of open compartments, each containing a different mineral.


On the pink pedestal is a display, a riot of items that could be used for fun or for rituals that focus one's intent. On top of a narrow black container with 18 squarish compartments is a pink hair dryer, like one sat under in a old-fashioned hairdresser's. Other items are displayed on the top of the pedestal. There are star sprinkles, essential and scented oils, various small minerals, holographic stickers, tubs of "wish powder" and so on. In the front and middle of the display, on a round lavender-coloured mat is a peach-shaded old landline telephone with a rotary dial. In the centre of the dial, a small sign reads "Thank you for witching with us".
