The Charlotte Pendragon Diaries by Charlotte Pendragon

That Old Black Magic

“The most foolish mistake man often makes is believing that evil lurks only in the darkness. There is no safety in the sun. Only shadows fear the sun. And shadows are just the dark reflections of daylight. True evil is as at home in the bright light as it is in the darkness. And it has no qualms about snatching you right out in the open…

What David Lynch showed us about permission to be strange.

Plant Sentience

There is provocative evidence that plants possess a form of sentience. This discovery challenges deeply entrenched assumptions both in biology and also in other scientific domains dominated by a materialist and reductively mechanistic paradigm. The properties and potential quantum physical processes involved in plant sentience also have deep and broad i…

Your health under attack

“In the Lower East Side of New York City, he noted, 500 physicians catered to Jewish societies alone. Among blacks in New Orleans there were over 600 fraternal societies with lodge practice during the 1920s.” ~ David Beito, Lodge Doctors and the Poor, Anno Domini 2010…

The Library of Celaeno

Collateral and the Remembrance of Death

Sometimes, when I’m considering what to write next, a number of ideas for different essays coalesce into one, like different streams flowing into a single current. A number of people have written interesting things about the Los Angeles Fires, to which I had hoped to respond, and I had given a lot of thought to…

Chris Rufo is Right

I hadn’t meant to write another essay so quickly after my previous one, but I think I might have something useful to contribute to the right wing crisis du jour. In case you missed it, Chris Rufo, NormieCon-adjacent nemesis of DEI, put out a series of posts on X that read as follows…

Sasha V's Sesquipedalian Soliloquies

Against the Theory of Everything

“Your theory has no answer to this question!” Actually, it does, allow me to explain. “Oh yeah, well what about this other question?” That’s outside the scope of my theory, and thus not relevant. “You don’t have an answer, I win!” Sir, I’m an embryologist, and you just asked me a question that only a geologist could answer…

Death of Decency

Apparently Netflix has released a behind-the-scenes documentary about one of the most baneful television shows in history, “The Jerry Springer Show.” I use the word ‘apparently’ because I have not had the streaming service for years, so I have to trust reports in that regard; those reports suggest that the documentary reveals Springer’s televised insane…

Hi, I’m Nathan,

I’m Nathan. A man trapped in his own Groundhog Day loop of drudgery and responsibility. My life has mostly been the same. I start my day the same way. I shower, I get dressed, I make tea, I grab a prepared lunch to take to work that I’d made the night before and I leave for work. I try to do everything possible to stave off uncertainty. It’s all just re…
