Welcome to Winter Term at Psyhigh for the 2024-25 school year. Also the 5125-26 (Kaliyuga year), 274-75 AE (Anthropocene calendar), 12024-25 HE (Holocene calendar), 7532-7533 AM (Byzantine calendar), 1446-1447 AH (Islamic Hijri calendar), 5784-95 AM (Hebrew calendar), 2567-68 BE (Buddhist Era), Renchen (Chinese calendar, Year of the Dragon), Reiwa 6 (Japanese Imperial Era), and the 13th Baktun, nearing the 14th Baktun (Mayan Long Count) school year.
You may remember that our attempt to include synchronization with extraterrestrial calendars became too complex in that students from planets with exceptionally short years demanded early graduation, and other students from long period planets were having to attend for hundreds of years, which is why the Psychic School Board now officially recognizes only terrestrial calendars. Put it in your calendar!
So, where were we? Ah, yes, the Reality Accident. Mobile classrooms and dormitories have been set up in the old bean field, potter's field, stoolball, rounders, and quoits fields to accommodate the influx of new students. Negotiation for the temporary use of the Corn Field are ongoing, and we hope to come to a peaceful resolution with the Scarecrow people very soon.
The quick fixes put in place following the last Reality Accident seem to have imploded, and the psychic weather report says it looks like the only way through this one is, well, through it. Which is why the school is committed to serving all refugees that come to our door, whether that means placing them in classes or finding them berths on the Psychic Underground Railroad.
But don't think our mobile dorms and classrooms are second-rate! We had help installing them from my on-again, off-again, often charming but sometimes detestable paramour @
Seketus Reed, who knows where to get deals on yurts and arctic expedition equipment. I am in fact heading out later this evening to his own model yurt, complete with fireplace, faux-fur rug, and ambient chill-out playlist where we can "try it out." Can't wait! Ha ha jk. Yeah he wishes.
So, welcome to Winter Term! Please take a moment to introduce yourself by clicking on the "Add a journal entry to Winter Term 2024-25" link at the end of the latest entry, and you'll be making psychic friends before you know it! Or at least people will know whether or not to keep their distance.
Sincerely,

Sure is cold here. I'm used to seeing my breath in 7-11s, but not in libraries and cafeterias. I heard they are keeping it cold to accommodate the visiting clan of teen ice giants.
the other day i was just reading the astral ripples and i saw some snarky senior do drugs on one of them.. where can i report it
My Seven Psychic Fruits have not fared well since summer.
"Eat us! Eat us!" they kept imploring me. "Eat us before it's too late!"
I was so enamored with them. I was in love with the way they looked, intoxicated by the way they smelled. I just couldn't bring myself to do it.
"I want to save you!" I said. "I can not be the one who ends you!"
Through the fall their cries grew more faint. They became confused, their tiny minds festering and fermenting.
They are still on the balcony of my dorm room. I can not bring myself to open the sliding door.
"Oh! Dude! Do you know what's out here? GROSS!"
I live in Thornycroft dorm and why do kids never use their psychic powers to pick up all the dirty dishes and stuff they leave in there?
We are PSYCHICS people this is so much easier for us!!!
I just got did a big Sorcerer's Apprentice on it all but the next kid I see leave their crap in there, I swear....
had a great time with all my new besties at the franz kafka outlet mall picking up some last minute holiday gifts
it's really awesome you can take the teleportation circles on a trip to prague any time you want but you do have to sign up ahead of time and sometimes get a teacher to go with you
Well it's getting pretty damn cold outside Psychic High School waiting for a goddamn invite. "Encrypted Psycode?" Sounds like some classist capitalist bullshit. I'm going though the recycling looking for something to burn before I use up all my matches.
Got my holiday hat on tonight! And the crystals are all in synch, and I am celebrating various solstice adjacent holidays in multiple realities all at once.
Which is awesome but it's kind of a super lot of shiny lights all shooting into my eyes from various crystals in my hat and looking forward to sleeping in and not doing anything for awhile.
