Navigation of a fallen world confronts us with the dilemma of steering between politics and morality. We discuss how that choice can be taken, and how to position ourselves beyond politics without adopting a centrist position. We also talk about the cancellation of our new edition of Magick Without Tears following warnings of legal action against the publisher from the OTO.

Regarding the OTO's ownership of Gérard Aumont's copyrights: “Our ownership of his rights will […] give our legal department basis for inhibiting the online dissemination of disinformation about Crowley.” See: Hymenaeus Beta [William Breeze], “A Note on Gérard Aumont”, https://tinyurl.com/572dtuhr (oto.org), accessed July, 2025.

Music: (Intro) "For Her Demon Lover" by OEITH; "Missing Pieces" by Shedding Feathers; "Here's Where I Lost You" by OEITH; (Outro) "Breeze's Biscuits" leaked by a disgruntled OTO member.
