An old, dog-eared novel, a grizzly hide rug,
the corniest puns wrapped in baritone hugs,
black licorice toffee, something absurd,

I prefer more flexible than "you can cast these spells, which always have the same effects" but not so flexible that what I can and can't do depends more on the GM's mood than anything else. Ars Magica and Mage: the Ascension are good examples, IMO.

As an abolitionist anthropologist, I offer that this is a result of our carceral culture.
We have been convinced, to the benefit of capitalists, that some people are "bad" and only "bad people" do harmful things. Thus we collectively let them throw racialized men in prison & invade "evil" countries

I remember at least one time where I ended up in an unnecessary conflict because I interpreted someone else's phrasing or tone as an attack and unthinkingly went on the defensive. We both got a bit heated before I remembered that I didn't care at all about the topic, and was just mirroring energy.

I relate too well. Conflict exhausts me so fast, and I rarely have much emotional energy as it is.
