The World On Her Head by Rimma 'zooyeglass' Deli

First an important note on:

How to tell a Witch from a Wizard

1. A Wizard has a Tower, a Witch has a Cottage
2. A Wizard is an introvert, a Witch is also an introvert but is one of those sorts that has to extrovert constantly as part of their job.
3. A Wizard paid a lot of money to know things. A Witch put in hard work to know that the wizard got themselves into student debt for no good reason.
4. A Wizard wears a pointy hat which shouts, “I AM THE WIZARD.” A witch wears a pointy hat that calmly informs you, “I am A witch."
5. A wizard knows what a spell does. A witch knows what the spell is for.
6. A wizard has ampules, phials and flasks. A witch has jars, pots and jugs.
7. Wizards and Witches are both fond of pickling things. You are more likely to be able to eat whatever the witch pickled.
8. A wizard hates people. A witch hates what people are when left to their own foolish devices.
9. A wizard expects to be reimbursed for their “services.” A witch never expects to be reimbursed, but they always are anyways.
10. Having a wizard in your community is like having a mildly unstable nuclear bomb on hand. Having a witch in your community is like having a fully staffed social services program and a fairly decent hospital. Guess which one regular folk prefer?

A Witch who cackles is barely better than a Wizard. Note that one of the differences is not gender, a Witch or a Wizard can be any gender even if ignorant townsfolk might make assumptions if you have a pointy hat and a beard.
