Please RT/QT for visibility and reach. I'm curious what your local leather/sm club dues are, annually? And what do those dues get you? In Vancouver, VML's dues are $25 (plus processing fees of like $1.70) Members get exclusive events (BBQs, etc), retail discounts, advanced Rsvp'ing etc

@iml-imbb.bsky.social featuring its streaming establishments on social media means that IML Bingo might be going corporate in Vancouver next year (also we can't do it at my house again because I'll be at IMLBB)

The idea of someone doing this is one of those things that's a hilarious hypothetical until you find out that this has actually happened before and probably more than once.

Nope. I'm glad I did it as an exercise in video/audio editing and as something to do during covid, but transactional social dynamics and parasociality ended up being something I didn't like. Feel free to reach out to me so I can tell you where to donate money to if you ever nutted to media I made.

I'm much more of a "Master of a human dog" type than a pup handler type. I find the energy of a highly trained service dog very appealing, less so the bouncy energy of pups.

Not without gear or SM. It's just how I'm wired.

ngl.link/stiefelkopp1 Too mentally drained to do quality work today, so distract me by asking me anything.

The leather contest scene could use a badass/heel in it. A real Pete Weber type of character who has his own "Who do you think you are? I AM!" moment when he wins a title and his speeches are about how the other contestants are lousy at sex.

Responding with "oooh big stretch!" when a sub prostrates himself before me

Master @stiefelkopp.bsky.social and I redden his slave's ass. #paddling

Serious wondering if I would be able to write and publish a production-quality version of @reconnews.bsky.social's new web app before they do (they have it slated to be released in 2nd quarter of this year), and might actually try to during evenings/weekends as a fun challenge.

Everybody wanna to be an obedient service object but don't nobody wanna decorate the back of the bar for a community fundraiser

I'm told the gym I have been going to this weekend in PS is not good because it's not cruisy and the equipment is a few years old My usual gym is a community centre where the last upgrades were done before I'm born, the fact that there is a flat bench and an incline bench is a luxury to me

I wish I was a pro wrestler, not for the homoeroticism or the fame, but for the airline points I would accumulate

It only took 9 hours but I have prod running. 2-3 significant documented bugs to hammer out in staging, writing documentation so that I can safely *redacted* myself when somebody tells me they don't like the shade of blue I use, and then this can go live.

Today's comedy of errors is going to be setting up the production environment for the VML app.

Have you ever written a D/s-heavy text message to a play buddy and send it, then immediately hear a family member's phone ding in the other room and get worried that you accidentally told a relative you want to waterboard them with your morning piss? Or is that just something that happens to me?

Just saw a guy describe himself as a "dominate [sic] service top" and a "straight-leaning queer" and immediately started projectile vomiting

Most of my 2026 goals involve buying and wearing leather and uniforms.

I asked chatGPT to generate a file I can import into Anki and it responds with "Now you're starting to understand what it means to be a beginner language learner -- sentences are not just words put together, they are the essence of A1 German" Cool, great, I'm so glad 5 trees died to shit that out.

"This is quite an invention. What do you call it?" "The contrapti--- err, the fruit machine"

It may have been a human rights violation, but I still think it's funny that to try to keep gay men out of the RCMP, they basically invented the Avro Arrow of jacking off and strapped recruits into it

I can tell I'm in a foul/depressed mood because I want to post hot takes.

Saw this and immediately thought to myself "Someone should assemble a centralized archive of these old leather-related websites" and then "I'll probably be the one who has to do this" and then "This means my old hell.com ripoff artfag website project is on hold again"

I checked out the new Recon layout to see how it's coming and I'm here to tell you all that modernizing a layout to look a decade old while further separating all users from real-life community is going to suck so bad

I regret to inform you that Canadian Tire has made the SS bolt Christmas decorations woke

Going to PS for NYE. I'm gonna need to know what's happening that weekend and which dads I should meet

You, a fraud with a sash: "Something something community service, be honorable and accountable" Me, a serious Leather Community Leader: "Sign my petition to force the LA&M to recognize Clarence Carter's 'Strokin' as the first JOI music video"

Oh, I also built functionality that will allow our sponsors to include their messaging in our E-Blast. If you'd like to sponsor a Leather club with ~170 dues-paying members and access our mailing list of ~500 verified users, hit me up. Or if you want to use my software we can figure something out.

I'm really proud of what I've built! I took a lot of inspiration from www.15sf.org in functionality but made it work for what our club does. We are going to run through a bunch of workflows and fix bugs before I share the link, but if your club/group is thinking of ditching Wordpress, HMU.

My home club, Vancouver Men in Leather, is ditching Wordpress, in favor of a custom-built solution I've been writing for a little more than half a year now. The new application is ready to start testing, and I wanted to write a bit about why I think this is a positive step forward:

I'm in Chicago, I'm horny, I have gear and toys, and I want to have sex with a stranger

Dems are going to pay someone $13m to figure out how a campaign that talked to normal people and addressed the problems they face became popular. They will conclude it was tiktok and we will get 3 years of octogenarians explaining "better things aren't possible" while they hit the griddy

Poppers, bondage, milker, full rubber and some time spent in storage and under the sublime control of @stiefelkopp.bsky.social in His dungeon, made for a happy gimp. A truly amazing Sir.

Not gonna block the new US fed accounts that popped up on here, not because I want to read their posts but because I can't figure out how to block a big list of accounts all at once

Got up way too early to make croissants and thought to myself "okay the oven is at 350f which means they'll be done in half an hour at 420am"

If they bring group chats to this website I'm going to make one and invite anybody to it who wants to shout about the news and show eachother what their ass looks like in old timey jodphurs

Seeing ads for pan kink vs gay kink parties is always amusing. Pan is always like "if you give fully informed enthusiastic consent, you might meet a new friend!" and gay stuff is always like "real whores will cum shovel scalding hot tar into the gaping holes of the world's most disgusting f4ggots"

My shirt isn't wrinkled, but AI that I can't turn off on my phone decided it needed to be

"don't you want me" by the human league came up on the playlist while in the dungeon and I fuckin couldn't, thanks to camp

My son's name is also the Chicago Eagle

I'm seeing double... FOUR Chicago Eagle bars???

Got fired from my job for posting politically violent rhetoric because I said that French Stewart wasn't actually receiving messages from the big giant head, he was just doing a funny voice

Today's the big day where a bunch of numbers get spoken into a microphone sequentially and I get kinda weepy

When a newbie asks how to be a real Leatherman, the correct response is "very carefully"

Fake wood bedside table with a fake marble top holding a fake old clock radio with a fake wood veneer I'm going to fake shooting myself in the head with a fake gun

Wandering Central Park is great. Walking around like "ayyy, it's the rock where Little Nicky did a paid product placement for Popeyes Chicken ova heah!"

Being an adult gay means coming to the realization that external validation from internet strangers is my primary motivation for fitness and instead of analyzing why that is, just leaning into it and eating like a reddit gymbro to appease my tens of adoring fans

When a sub is like "is there anything I can do to please you, Sir?" My cock immediately goes "tell him you want him to tribute you a full leather uniform because the idea of wearing a physical manifestation of the depths of his submission is super hot" but I just reply "I'll let you know, boy"
