Its not really a spell per se but its very interesting to see that in the face of the phrase 'there's no honor among thieves' we see described a place where thieves climb to their honor as the only valuable thing they have left

'To wolves who still were able to catch some rabbits, it has meaning that an old wolf who lost his fangs was still eating' #pillastorytime #MalcolmX

Time to start adding cws to these posts so i can post more heavily

20) Human communication is the ur-spell, the magic that makes all the rest of these spells work reliably. Of particular interest to me is how naughty spells like these are passed down, you have to do it in the right way or things can get bad for you and your whole coven

21) If you got a good crew tho, here's all the things you need to do to steal an entire store in minutes #pillastorytime #MalcolmX

16) everythings a hustle but some hustles pay more than others. Providing a condom to a horny guy makes a lot more than hustling hand towels
17) some hustles are -very- profitable because the local authorities dont want people to have a certain thing. Ive posted before about how witches and gangsters are similar because they exist in the space between how society says it operates and how it actually operates

Its too cold to do jewelry work in the garage so im malcolmx posting. In chapter 3, malcolm learns some naughty spells 😈

13) just by being from the same place as someone can get you your first crucial foot in the door
14) getting a steady stream of tips from combining shame with nice fresh towels
15) having a skill is its own magic. You can do something others cant, whether its to shine a shoe or perform surgery. Learning to do it with excellence often pays dividends

A lot of powerful spells only work if you know something that other people dont know. You can turn nothing into something by
5) stealing stuff
6) cheating at a wagered game
7) just getting a better position than someone trying to do the same thing as you

Because these rely on metagaming, they are inherently cursed! Everyone cant just go do them or they dont work! (Compare to growing your own food for example)
