Lugh Sulian Standing on the Ledge · Rebuilding from the Rubble Lugh Sulian is a working name for a working moment. This profile exists to hold Standing on the Ledge: Rebuilding from the Rubble—an ongoing, real-time record of what happens after collapse, when old rules stop functioning and new ones haven’t yet earned trust. This is not myth reenactment. Not spiritual bypass. Not curated healing. It’s a field journal from the threshold. The name Lugh points toward skill, clarity, and responsibility carried with awareness. Sulian gestures toward sight—what can be seen when illusion drops away and pretending becomes too expensive. Together, they frame the posture of this work: to look clearly, act deliberately, and refuse to rebuild what already failed. Through short-form video, spoken reflection, and long-form writing, this project explores: Collapse without spectacle Responsibility without authority Burnout as a systems problem, not a personal flaw Pagan cycles as lived practice, not aesthetic Small fires instead of grand rebuilds This space is intentionally unfinished. It documents: Standing still without freezing Moving forward without rushing Learning from rubble instead of hiding it Unplugged-Pagan.com serves as the grounding—seasonal awareness, ritual stripped of performance, and meaning built from experience rather than doctrine. Standing on the Ledge is one expression of that grounding, focused on the human cost of broken systems and the slow work of rebuilding integrity. This is not a teaching platform. It’s a shared watchpost. If you’re here, you’re likely between versions of yourself—tired, alert, uncertain, and still standing. You don’t need answers yet. You need honesty, boundaries, and permission to move at the speed of truth. No conclusions offered. No certainty promised. Still on the ledge. Still watching. Still working the rubble. Godspeed. Optional Short Versions (for profile headers or bios) Short bio (Facebook / site header): Threshold work. Pagan-rooted, process-driven. Documenting collapse, clarity, and the refusal to rebuild what failed.

Cameras For Printer

I have a dedicated Print shack set up for my printer, and winter is on its way. I have decided to break down and buy a camera so I can keep an eye on my prints from the cozy warmth of the house. Yes, I had an empty insulated garden shed. Long story, it housed bats for a previous tenant who had been sent merrily on his way after one too many disagreements.
I am slowly converting it to house my new hobby.

For the most part, the shack is off-grid for lighting, but the heater and printer are still tied to the grid. Has anyone out there tried running one of these things off an inverter? I know, at least for the moment, the heater draws too much current to do so. I would have to invest in more panels and a 3000-watt inverter, and most likely a few 6-volt AGM batteries. For now, that is just too many greenbacks for the savings on hydro it would afford me.

New Hobby

I have not been here for a while. Work has kept me busy to the point of near exhaustion. It’s time to take back some personal time. As the post says, I have taken up a new hobby, 3D printing. I have long wanted a 3D printer, but the money just wasn’t there. I bit the bullet and bought one. Two weeks ago, a Flashforge AD5X multicolor 3D printer arrived at my doorstep. And I have been busy finding things to print. Goofy things, practical things, and fun things have been printed. I will be sharing some of these things later. I just wanted to check in and say Hi, I am still here.

Black Falcon Drone Review

Well, ordered a pair of these, my order was supposed to be as follows:

2 x black falcon drones 4k with dual cameras
1 upgraded battery
1 Spare replacement rotors

I have to say this: the drones shipped did not have dual cameras; the “upgraded battery” was no different than any of the others. I had to double-check the shipping label. Indeed, the drones were to be dual cameras. The drones were shipped in a “bag,” not a box, and the bag it self was not even a bubble wrap type. The soft cases are flimsy and probably provided little protection during shipping. I am surprised they made it in one piece.

Review of the drone itself: Well constructed??? The bodies are flimsy, and the rotors are secured with plastic yolks to the motors. The arms, well, let’s say the arms fold back in rather easily—a little too easily. Camera is well protected.

First flight: Take off was no problem, but I constantly had to adjust drift. The controls took a little getting used to from my other drone, and I still have to continually adjust for drift. Hovering in one place is a pain. Nimble and quick in the air, once I got used to the controls. Now let’s talk camera, Definitely NOT 4K, how High Up am I??? Your guess is as good as mine. The software app did not give you that information, and the ads in the software are NICE… NOT Taking Pictures and videos are Um Pain in the behind.

Time to Land…. SMACK going down hard. Wait, why did it flip over while coming down? That must have been a fluke; let’s try that again, Second landing attempt; try to make that a little more gracefully. Nope, same thing. SMACK down hard, and this time, the battery flew out. Nice retaining clip for the battery, and the arms folded in on themselves on landing. Wait, that should not happen.

I may give this a little more getting used to, but for now (considering I lost one of two drones. More on that in another post), I am not impressed. And No, Black Falcon, I am not looking for a refund, And I am not looking for you to send me anything. And No, I am not taking this post down. Overall, though, I recommend this drone that I got off Amazon, and again I am not endorsing it, but it seems to be a lot better than the Black Falcon, and the phone software has no ads.

Heathen Bedtime Prayer

My Day is done, it’s time for bed

Odin bless my sleepy head

Earth and Water, Air and Fire

Bring gentle dreams as I retire

When the evening moon does rise

May Thor bless my open eyes

And if I should die before I wake

I pray to Hel my soul to take
