Small public counter-spells for re-humaning everyday life.
A JINX is a designed or discovered moment that interrupts the ordinary curse of disconnection: a flicker of shared attention, humor, coincidence, participation, or mutual recognition in public life.
Some JINXes are created on purpose.
Some happen in the wild.
All of them remind us: the spell can break.
