Well, Wyrdlings, that does it for today's #WyrdWednesday! We hope you enjoyed today's elixirs and concoctions (and that you will recover from them safe and sound) and so until next time...
In 'The Nutty Professor' (Paramount Pictures, 1963), a timid chemist Julius Kelp discovers a potion that unleashes his darker side as Buddy Love. The film's French title, showing it's literary origins. #WyrdWednesday #JerryLewis #StellaStevens #Film #60s
#WyrdWednesday “Elixirs” pt 2 After drinking tea made from the oasis Ashaddon was restored, and more he became an avatar of Baal-Saphon and could call the storms. He promised Baal-Saphon to do justice first to remove the usurpers and restore the righteous throne. 2/🧵
Come, bitter conduct, come, unsavoury guide. Thou desperate pilot, now at once run on The dashing rocks thy seasick, weary bark. Here’s to my love! (drinks the poison) ~ Romeo #WilliamShakespeare #WyrdWednesday
In 'Broom-Stick Bunny'('56) directed by Chuck Jones, Witch Hazel's claim to be the ugliest witch of all, is threatened by a Halloween witch who turns out to be Bugs Bunny. She inadvertently takes a concocted potion meant for Bugs that in turn makes her beautiful. #WyrdWednesday
#WyrdWednesday here my drawing (2013, no AI) "The Green Fairy" the green liquor Absinthe which green colour was enhanced originally with copper sulfate and antimony trichloride which caused toxicity and poisoning, and thus cause hallucinations (and green fairies of course)
Joe Netherworld, aka America's Favorite Satanist, collaborated to make a number of cocktails and brews featured on "Cocktail Vultures". Including a revival of The Pink Squrriel. (The original had ice cream!) More drinks: cocktailvultures.wordpress.com/page/2/ @WyrdWednesday #WyrdWednesday
Absinthe - or the Green Fairy - was a mildly hallucinogenic spirit laced with wormwood. By 1860, the drink was so popular in France that 5.00-6.00 pm was called 'the Green Hour'. By 1910, the French were drinking 36 million litres a year. #WyrdWednesday #folklore #history #art
When life gives you lemons, do what Thor does and utterly pulverize them into a powerful, highly-fermented lemon-ale while screaming, “I AM THE GOD OF THUNDER AND DESTROYER OF TROLLS!” You’ll grow as a person in the process. #WyrdWednesday @PointsinCase pointsincase.com/articles/when-…
The #Hyades were five #nymphs who wept for their brother #Hyas until Zeus turned them into stars. They may be found in the constellation #Taurus. As the “#AprilRainers,” their rising is said to bring the spring rains — joy from sorrow, as rain is the best #elixir. #WyrdWednesday
#WyrdWednesday As well as frequently drinking Xocolatl [chocolate], people in Mayan society consumed hallucinogenic beverages made variously from Tobacco, Peyote [a type of cactus], Morning Glory seeds and Balché bark mixed with honey & water ...

#WyrdWednesday @WyrdWednesday “After the first glass of absinthe, you see things as you wish they were. After the second, you see them as they are not. Finally, you see things as they really are, and that is the most horrible thing in the world.” —— Oscar Wilde The Absinthe…

Thanks to @RGeirsson for the last round! @PrairieBones would like to see what concoctions you brew up on today's #WyrdWednesday with our topic of Potions and Elixirs!🥂
nowadays, industrial pollution is blamed when the Esolt River occasionally runs red but the Sisters of Demayne always knew better - it's the Best Below shedding ...bottled, such precious liquid becomes a potent ingredient in spells and invocations #WyrdWednesday #BledbrookeTales
#WyrdWednesday In Medieval times monks used Mandrake Root in elixirs to cure all sorts of ailments, from ulcers to asthma to arthritis. It was thought to have magical properties, and today is refined into hyosine, the main preoperative sedative used in hospitals around the world.
Though the alchemists are most famous for trying to turn lead into gold, that was merely a step towards their ultimate goal - the potion of immortality. They felt spiritually purifying lead to become gold would help show them how to spiritually purify human bodies. #WyrdWednesday
#Celtic #WyrdWednesday: “A wine made from honey, #mead figures in a number of #Celtic myths and legends as a drink favored by warriors. Its most consistent mythological association is with the goddess/queen whose name is the same as the drink, #Medb, and who represented the 1/2
