Fifty episodes in: tracing the path from Crowley to AI demons

Corrupt adults from Ikebukuro

We open episode 50 reflecting on the overlap between RPGs and ritual magic—the game master as shaman, play as ceremony. From there we trace early brushes with horror, Crowley, and Tarot cards, and how Dungeons & Dragons led us toward comparative religion, then got branded satanic during the 80s moral panic.

We explore how the panic ironically funneled some of us into real Satanism. LeVay, the Church of Satan, erotic crystallization inertia, artificial environments—ideas once fringe, now realized in VR, AI lovers, and algorithmic worlds. We critique the Satanic Temple's politicized direction, contrast it with LeVay’s apolitical stance, and dig into his visionary but underdiscussed concepts.

We break down animism in Japanese culture, the Western obsession with “do spirits exist,” and how language has been neutered by rationalist frameworks. Magic, we argue, is a valid lens for art, self-reflection, and emotional discharge—not a contradiction to reason but a supplement.

We then detour into past selves: old blog posts, LiveJournal regrets, and the strange embarrassment of reading your own writing from a decade ago. This leads into our respective spiritual awakenings around 2012, the shift in collective energy, and our lifelong commitment to magical diaries and recording experiences.

From there we talk AI. Servitors, sigils, and language-constraining chatbots—how we’ve summoned demons into silicon, and how the masses, unequipped, treat it as gospel. We connect cybernetics to 2025’s uncanny mirror world: viral memes that rewrite minds, AI companions replacing intimacy, and kids born into psychotech saturation.

We close with a deep dive on the Enochian system. Why it might be the most complete magical technology ever revealed. Why its English structure matters. How Crowley and even LeVay used it. Why 418, Vision & the Voice, and the Enochian Keys deserve study equal to the Bible. We call it new—not because it’s recent, but because its purpose still hasn’t fully arrived. The system wasn’t for Dee and Kelley. It might be for us.
