always felt called to witchcraft and folk magic but i call on the saints and don’t want to infringe on closed practices

my religion has kind of always been over the place. i was technically raised methodist, but most of my family was catholic. however my mother and my aunts raised me to be either agnostic or spiritual. now that im coming into my own i feel a bit stuck because i have a hard time with the idea of god but i always call on the saints. and they always seem to help.

my problem is i can’t really find a good religion/sect for white people who want to practice witchcraft and connect with the saints at the same time. my aunt suggested santeria but i know that’s a closed practice. how can i go about this?

i meant to post this in the witchcraft subreddit but it directed me here? i didn’t know such a thing existed. this kind of feels more my speed. i’m sorry i’m still really new to this and trying to figure my beliefs out

hit and run ocd mixed real event

was making a long drive to see my friend, i was in the fast lane going 10 over. saw some flashing lights ahead of me but assumed it was a truck on the other side of the highway. suddenly saw a pulled over car with some people in front of it. slammed on the brakes and swerved out of the way last minute.

when i swerved into the next lane i realized why they had the flashing lights, they must have hit a deer and were trying to keep cars away. i ran the deer over anyway, so did the car in front of me. i was on edge about it, but not too concerned. even laughed to myself thinking “haha you’re gonna think you hit a person later.”

of course, ten minutes later i start panicking thinking i might have accidentally hit the person i saw before i swerved. it didn’t help that i saw a cop car and an ambulance going the other direction.

i turned around and found where the ambulance and cop car stopped, it didn’t look like where the deer was, but i still asked the sheriff what had happened, kind of explained, and he told me i need to leave. but im still so freaked out about it. i don’t know what to do. please help.

if i EVER detrans its because the t somehow made me a man bun cuck millennial

i don’t even know how to properly express this through text because i’m drunk but i think id rather be an extremely male presenting « wombynly» butch who is 50/50 on ftm vs mtf than be a dude who is 100% cis but also 100% watching his wife get fucked by someone with a bigger cock on the reg. is this what hefabs are taking about when they discuss the people who only physically transition due to « societal standards » am i faketrans
