Flavour text
Certain initiates into the Skirsdag cult take a vow of blindness, pledging obedience to none but demonkind.
Rulings
Because targets are chosen before costs are paid, you can activate Skirsdag Flayer’s ability targeting itself and then sacrifice Skirsdag Flayer to pay the cost.
You can sacrifice any Human you control, including Skirsdag Flayer itself.
