The strange tale of the biblical gastro-mancer (like necromancy but for your stomach)

[@HGModernism]

Spooky pumpkin ghost cookies with cream cheese frosting! Cookies: 1 and 1/2 cups (340g) fresh or canned pumpkin puree 2 cups (375g) all-purpose flour (spooned & leveled) 1 cup almond flour 1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon 3/4 cup (12 Tbsp; 170g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature 1 cup (200g) packed dark brown sugar 1 large egg, at room temperature 2 teaspoons pure maple syrup 1 and 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract Frosting: 3 ounces (85g) full-fat brick lactose free (unless you want borborygmus of your own) cream cheese, softened to room temperature 2 Tablespoons (28g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature 1 Tablespoon (15ml) pure maple syrup pinch ground cinnamon (about 1/8 teaspoon) Soften Butter (and cream cheese)! Preheat oven to 350°F. ) Blot pumpkin to remove moisture, should be ~1 and ⅓ cup. Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, pumpkin pie spice,and cinnamon, together. Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment, cream the softened butter and both sugars together on medium speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Add the egg and mix on high until combined, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed. Add the maple syrup, vanilla, and blotted pumpkin and mix on high until combined. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, then mix on low speed until combined. Scoop or roll cookie dough, around 1.5 Tablespoons of dough per cookie, and place 3 inches apart on the baking sheets. Bake for 14-15 minutes or until edges are slightly browned. Remove from the oven and allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Optional Icing: Beat ingredients, place in plastic sandwich bag, cut a hole in the corner, and pipe onto cookies Optional ghost eyes: shaved chocolate!

I think I have something interesting for you: there is a YT lecture titled "The Shape of the Soul: The Viking Mind and the Individual", at ~51:00 the guy (Neil Price) talks about a grave of a norse sorceress, and one of the things they found were (possibly) remains of cremations in her stomach. This lecture is from 2012 and I didn't dig deeper, so idk what are the current interpretations and if anything similar was found elsewhere or is talked about in sagas.

Loveeeee it ✨✨I need to include Gastromancy in my DnD games now. Also love that production of Macbeth, especially how it’s all in bomb shelter tunnels while the War is on, sooooo suspenseful!! And I too love technowitches. I run a DnD game in which the Shadowfell is a plane of existence which surrounds the Earth and is an echo of man’s progress upon it. It extrapolates and amplifies the progress we’ve made, so the entire land is an enormous city of claustrophobic Baroque and Victorian buildings powered by gas and surrounded by a polluted lifeless wasteland. The populace of shadow elves and undead creatures survive off of the consumption of human emotions, which they harvest Monsters Inc-style from huge Soul Farms in which the souls of dead humans are run through digital simulations designed to incite fear and sorrow that can be harvested for food. Gangs of roving humans sometimes prowl the streets in caravans of vans and horseless carriages, seeking out abandoned buildings in which they can set up their illegal Snthesizers: essentially magical 3-D printers they use to synthesize rare objects and creatures from the simulation farm programs they hack into. Typically they use this to create real living flowers and food animals they sell on the black market, since they cannot be cultivated in the wasteland. The color of your gas lights are a sign of your wealth, with yellow coal flames indicating the poor and bright blue, pink, green, etc lights represent those rich enough to afford the (double entendre) Noble Gases like Argon and Neon. They have no clear government beyond the corporation which runs the simulation farms (the practice is called pathiculture), BUT- and this is why I thought of mentioning this; because of your Hecate idea- there is an entity in the City which employs androids to rebuild buildings, change the construction of streets, lock computer systems, etc. No one has ever seen the one who commands the androids, but intrepid programmers have checked the logs of systems altered by them and found a calling card of sorts- the user that makes these software changes is always raven_queen. This mysterious entity which essentially runs the entire City- and therefore the entire plane of existence- is actually, in a way, the plane itself- the combination of a digital network and magical e earth manifested itself into an intelligent life form- an Artificial Intelligence. A Ghost in the Machine, if you will. If this Shadowfell has any deity, raven_queen is the closest thing to it, creating life in the form of androids to interact with the physical world she can’t touch, and pulling the strings of software across her plane by hacking the e tire network. I thought you might like that, very similar to a Hecate AI!

[@HGModernism]

Oh I like the gas light tell. Shadowfell feels like the perfect plane to have cyber-noire stories. What I really enjoy about the cyberpunk genre is the contrast between the drab greyness of the world with skies the color of static, and the intense sensory overload of "jacking in". Shadowfell is already a bleak reflection of the real world so that feels like an excellent setting!

[@AndromedaCripps]

@@HGModernism Thank you! Oh wow you’ve also just given me such a great idea!!! I have also played the Cyberpunk 2020 TTRPG before, and now I think I need to adapt it and run a game of it in this setting!! I had never thought before about how “jacking in” and netrunners in general are actually quite similar to how my players had to work with sone Synthesizers to matrix-style upload their souls into hacked Simulations and retrieve their loved ones from them. There’s probably a gaspunk analogy for each aspect of Cyberpunk’s mechanics, and it would lend such an edgy and dark feel to that world. Thanks for the idea!!!

Oh... I'd want the shutter speed align with the fps? And yeah, I also really need to just get a black-out curtain behind, my camera really struggles with any outside light changes

[@yawningmarmot]

@@HGModernism Yes, usually it's best to use the shutter speed that's double the fps (so 1/60 for 30p, 1/50 for 25p etc), though I find that for 50/60 fps and up you can also use the shutter speed equal to the fps, especially if you're not slowing down the footage (so for 60p using 1/60 should work just as well as 1/120 for talking head).

[@Parallax3599]

I loved this video! Thank you for it. I just wanted to point out that at 7:35 this is less a contradiction and more a translational / contextual misunderstanding. Dan Fefferman on the Hermeneutics StackExchange explains this really well, but the TL;DR is that 1Chr10:14 is really in reference to Saul seeking a medium, and not saying he never inquired of God. I'll also point out that other, more academic versions of the Bible better account for this. Anyhow, here's what Fefferman had to say: >..."Translators are divided as to whether the words "did not" should be preceded by "and," "but" or "instead of/rather than." The OP presumes that "did not inquire of the LORD" means that Saul did not inquire of Him at any time, especially in 1 Sam. 28:6. However the phrase can be understood to refer only to the particular time when Saul inquired of the "familiar spirit" (also translated "ghost")." >..."In addition to28:6, Samuel is clear that Saul did both inquire and receive an answer from the LORD on one other occasion: 1 Samuel 14:41" >..."On yet another occasion (1 Samuel 14:37) Saul inquired of the LORD but received no answer, and as the OP mentioned there is also a general statement about the LORD not answering him in 1 Sam. 28:6." >"Conclusion: 1 Chron. 10:14 can be understood to mean that Saul sinned specifically when he consulted the a familiar spirit instead of inquiring of the LORD, rather than that he never inquired of the LORD. He did in fact inquire previously several times and received an answer at least once. Because 1 Chron. does not claim that Saul never inquired of the LORD, the two verses mentioned in the OP are not contradictory."

[@orterves]

5:59 dang it up to this point I was just listening, now I have to watch.

[@__-vb3ht]

I think a bit of context that is missing with the Saul and Samuel story, is that while Samuel anointed Saul as king, he did so reluctantly. Before, there were only judges who were informal authorities, consulted only in times of war or for tough legal decisions. But there was no permanent government. Then the people went to the prophet Samuel demanding to get a king and a standing army, in order to be just like the surrounding nations. Samuel is furious and tells them how it's a stupid idea. Later he cries out to God, who agrees with him and goes so far as to say it is that it is not Samuels advice the people have rejected, but Gods authority itself. God asks Samuel to tell the people that they can have a king if they want, but it'll be horrible, he'll send the young men off to war, collect taxes, and just generally abuse his power. And the people are like "yeah, yeah, cool, that sounds exactly like what we had in mind, can we please have that?" And then Samuel declares Saul king and the age of kings begins. Beside the puzzling story about Saul who is rebuked for not having consulted the Lord after having done just that, there is another similar story of a king asking prophets for advice on going to war. Ahab wants to attack a neighbouring nation, and asks 400 people who are called "prophets" in the text. All of them say that he will surely win if he fights. Then another king allied with Ahab asks if there isn't also a "prophet of YHWH" they could ask, and Ahab straight up says "there is, but I didn't ask his opinion because I know him, and know he would be opposed". Ahab then lets himself be talked into hearing out the prophet Micaiah after all, who tells him that if he goes to war, he'll die, and that is meant to be. Furious, the king has the prophet jailed, goes to war, and sure enough he is hit by an arrow and dies. It's a more straightforward tale, and even if one doesn't believe the supernatural elements, it has something important to say about leaders who surround themselves with sycophants and consciously refuse to engage with criticism. Which, just like limiting access to something you're using yourself, is entirely unrelated to anything happening in politics today

Cyberpunk really plays into the whole "Cybermancy" idea pretty well.

[@insidejoke3223]

This is so fascinating, I need to learn more! I wonder how one became a gastromancer, like did someone have indigestion one day and people told them, "better take care of the demon inside you." Did gastromancers eat certain foods because they thought it appeased the spirits, would they avoid certain foods because they believe it antagonized the spirits? Everyone (or mostly everyone, I shouldn't generalize) makes occasional stomach sounds so how did one differentiate between "oh my friend ate something earlier" and "there is a dead person inside my friend speaking to me"???

The narrative in 1 Samuel 28 has the witch of Endor being surprised when she actually saw Samuel. As a Christian, I interpret this that the witch of Endor was a charlatan (maybe a gastromancer, maybe not), who was surprised that a spirit actually got summoned during her act. Also the "not enquired of the Lord" must be seen in the greater context. The events of 1 Samuel 28 is not the first instance where Saul was disobedient towards God. He was warned, and warned, and finally cut off. As we know, repentance is always an option with the God of the Bible. Instead of repenting when God did not give an answer, Saul doubled down in sin and went to see a witch. That is why Chronicles goes with "not enquired of the Lord," Saul had the option to repent, which he didn't do.
