Eldtritch has gone stale everybody, we're all thinking it! I'm so tired of hearing about "summoning" a creature from " la most terrible and tenebris maw" why does everything have a maw? What the fuck is a maw? Give me a grimoire that summons a goblin that looks like a ciao ciao that does my taxes or some shit.

    The Commodore 64 Programmer's Reference Guide felt a bit like a grimoire at the time.

    If dog-themed accounting software is what you're after, it contains all the knowledge you need to write some.

      Isnt that what deamons are suposed to be non material entities that poses form without substance. That sounds a lot like compuetr code.

        If that's the case, then pretty much any corporate Git repository should count.

        Or SVN if you want something eldritch.

        Or Microsoft SourceSafe if you want something really demonic.

    The Guitar Grimoire is a great reference for chord construction with interesting relevant non-Western modes

    There once was a very weighty book that was owned by all households all across the land. None read it cover to cover, but all used it for hidden knowledge, at need. There were white pages and yellow pages to aid the seeker, and all was arranged most orderly. Alas, but this font of knowledge is gone from this land, and I have not seen its like for many a long year. New-fangled methods have lured seekers of knowledge to other sources, and its venerable wisdom is sought no more. Seek ye the telephone book? Ye shall not find it, though ye search the length and breadth of your grandmother's attic, for it was recycled long ago.

    Just open Deliveroo to quickly summon a wretched and oppressed creature whose pitiful state is only matched by it's shocking banality.

      I do self-criticism constantly because I’m trapped in a Maoist cult where comrades (white terrorists) criticize me mercilessly for having a fascist credit card (VISA Silver Signature Rewards)

      They won’t let me invoke elemental spirits from the astral plane anymore because the phone is fascist and "summoning my daemonic slaves with a bourgeois app" is "bad vibes"
