This is why magic is “magic” and not Magic™
>>24685593>magick>dark magic>chaos magic>forbidden magic>divine holy power>make up a random word by smashing your keyboard and selecting a vaguely pronounceable string of lettersthe possibilities are endless
>>24685834“No it’s psionics it’s not magic” etc
>>24685593bigger magic!
>>24685596/thread Magic lies inside the mind’s eye
>>24685593>call something technology>something even more bizarro shows up>can’t call it technology because the name is already in use
>>24685856Super magic
>>24685885Well, technology is quite literally just applied science/physics, so… even a stick is a piece of technology, technically speaking. The wheel, is technology. The problem is so many, TOO many, think that magic is some specific something, like glowing blue goo, rather than a way of looking at something. That glowing blue goo may not be seen as magic by some sufficiently high iq alien who understands it as just another facet or product of physics.
>>24685593>>24685856>>24685916You’ll notice that magic is a game of punking. “No it’s magic!”, “No it’s Magick!”, “No it’s a miracle!”, “No it’s science!”, etc. Magic by any other name.
>>24685924Magic is ironic and full of pretension.
