Just watched ep. 1 of Boots (Netflix). Reminded me of school. But reminded me less of school than 'If' did.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Trust the neoliberal BBC to completely ignore income inequality in this social phenomenon.

In fairness to Kwasi Kwarteng and Liz Truss, Simon Wessely has done more damage to the UK economy imho.

So, I have my bone scan results and I have pretty bad osteopenia. Likely a result of Crohn's Disease effects limiting exercise and immune suppression meaning I am told to stay out of sunlight to avoid (more) skin cancer). It will not have been helped by the years of neglect from andrology too.

I not infrequently use 'breeder' as a mild slur -- but no-one can be sure whether I mean 'heterosexuals' or 'intact men'. It has ambiguity. I use it for both in different contexts of exasperation.

I was going to say something, but then thought stfu. Hugs to those who deserve them.

I've signed, have you?

Until about 3 minutes ago I thought it was Saturday 🙃

Today, Crohn's is playing up. Absolute exhaustion.

I just got back from a bone density scan at Broomfield Hospital. The thing is easy and takes all of 10 minutes... and isn't even in any department or part of the building connected to where bad things happened to me. ...

A Fetlife DM conversation. Really important to say because A) give me verbal, I'm bored; B) if you're considering body mods for kink, once it's done, you'll live normal life & the mod won't hit the fetish spot. I was castrated for medical reasons, so have thankfulness for being cured & don't mind.

Some thoughts of the day.

Totally love this... from a eunuch perspective, the contrast is compelling

Being a faggot has brought me joy and fulfillment and love and hope beyond anything else. And they will never for a fucking second make me feel otherwise.

I do not consent to having my art policed. I do not consent to puritans. I do not consent to big corp. I do not consent to this tyranny.

Remember, they hate trans joy, they hate gay joy, they hate Black joy, they hate Native joy, etc. they hate when we can laugh and love and live our lives in our own skin. They hate that we can find our way without their rigid rules. To find joy and thrive is a great act of resistance too.

none of the gotcha examples of "out-of-control scientific spending" bother me in the slightest. isn't science about finding shit out? "they spent a million dollars of taxpayer money to see if they could make mice sexier" okay, well, what was the answer? I want to know too

WEAR YOUR FAVORITE SHINY THING.

Some time a go, a friend died who had told us that knowing us gave him the security to say (to us) he was gay. He had a family, and was happy with that... but it's something about life in that generation, and the lives people had to craft, I suppose. We heard some time after the death...

Absolutely exhausted today

Finally fully (fully) healed up. I think because of a lot of distractions stopping me messing with it...

Dumbass idea for an island nation not to just put them in the sea. The bases of wind turbines for instance.

The unsavvy talk about furries like they're some hypersexual excretion of modernity, but drawing animal-people is one of the top 10 neolithic human activities. It's up there with collecting berries and producing clay figures of fat women.

The most annoying thing about being #castrated as someone who enjoys playing about with sex, is not being able to join in the whole #chastity toys scene as easily. But I found a cheap eBay seller of the #tetherspout , so I'm going to have a muck about with that when it arrives...

I had a Crohn's infusion earlier... absolutely wiped-out. But then gain, I was wiped-out before it. Slightly different kind of wiped-out.

As one skin disturbance retires into smooth scarring, another decides to play up (this is where that small skin bridge was)

You can just tell how tired people are about all the BS these days. There are so many clouds hanging over the internet.

SPREAD THE WORD SUPPORT OUR UK FRIENDS SAY NO TO ONLINE CENSORSHIP petition.parliament.uk/petitions/72...

UK users when the website asks them where they're posting from today.

''Ello 'ello 'ello, yew got a loicence for dat wank?'

Just age-verified for this site. I think the UK is going to have a massive problem. Lord Sumption has made the point that democracy has offered ✨nothing✨ to millennials and younger folk whatsoever, and now it's rubbing salt in the wound. Welcome to pre-revolutionary England. Hold on tight.

Anyone else have the hots for the Wolf in the OG Stronghold game? (Random nostalgia thought)

The US right now is like a Netflix adaptation of Suetonius.

so this.

On this topic, I think it would be totally fun and valid for, say, people experiencing limb loss to, for example, play croquet with the amputated limb to give a big FU to fate and to show agency and so forth. ... My instincts about rituals of reclaiming do not suit 'polite' tastes...

Today is International Non-Binary People's Day and the first day of Non-Binary Awareness Week The day was first celebrated in 2012, started by Katje van Loon. The date was chosen for being precisely midway between International Women's Day and International Men's Day.

Reminds me of Lord Clark talking about Montaigne in Civilisation -- 'he examined the only person he could interrogate with out scruples -- himself' (or words to that effect)

would you fuck your fursona how would you fuck your fursona I think I would eat out mine. Or play with the robot's joystick. I would not damage the dragon, where the fuck am I gonna get the pieces to repair

Increased temperatures also increase adrenaline. If you have orthostatic intolerance, tendency to tachycardia, an anxiety disorder, or anything else where elevated adrenaline increases symptoms, be very cautious in July, hottest month of the year.

Idk if other people have this with kink talk... but if I don't think I'll talk to someone very long, I can play along with pretty much anything. But if I feel like there'll be sustained conversations I'm pathologically unable to talk fantasy without footnotes of what is and isn't irl-able.

Still alive... just. This heat is absurd.

Happy Independence Day to my LGBTQIA+ friends in the United States. May your solidarity never falter, and your ammunition never be depleted.

I was having a conversation with a straight kinkster on an app earlier, about whether eunuchs/castrated guys are in any way more 'game' for (intact) straight(ish) men sexually. Something interesting is that a big part of all of it seems to be down to whether sexual activity + or - status. ...
