My girlfriend is amazing! While out grocery shopping, she texts me "The question is, how much do you need this?". I respond "Yeah, I'd unironically wear that." She comes home and tosses me this badass t-shirt. I spend an hour and a half later that night cutting it up and tying it back together. *Poof* new tank in my favorite shirts drawer. --- Before y'all are like "Wtf Alice, Twilight??" —I just rewatched all five of them with my other girlfriend, and they are all amazing movies...for learning how to spot every possible red flag in a relationship. And I love them. Besides, Alice is great. #Metal #Twilight #DIY #Clothing

Wow, I just got hate-speeched (I think) in public for the first time in a long time 😮 (so #CW) Earlier today I was over in Mercer Island for lunch with my mom. On the walk from the car to the restaurant, after some guy was leering at me as we crossed he street, I mentioned that I'm used to getting disapproving looks from the church crowd, or guys checking me out creepily, but no one around Seattle actually *says* anything gross to my face. Well, prove me wrong! A little later, as we were walking back from lunch to the car, a big black truck rolled by with its tinted windows down, and two 20s-ish guys in it. They were yelling stuff out the window at me (which I assume was queerphobic or sexist—based on their demeanor, but asshats rarely understand how sound compression works, so they're almost always unintelligible as they drive by). That event led to us having an actual, open conversation about some things that we've never talked about before. Which is how my mom and I both found out the other had been sexually assaulted, twice. Her when she was 18, and again in her 20s, and me when I was 13, then again just a couple years ago. I think that's the most real conversation we've ever had (and a sad thing to bond with your mom over). #SA #Sexuality #Sexism

Is it spike strips? God I hope it's spike strips...

God, how do normal people even browse the internet anymore?

I needed to make some room in my closet, so this weekend I tried on a bunch of old clothes before deciding what to give away. I also recently posted about how I hadn't been making much adult content lately, so I thought I'd take a few photos during the process. I'll be writing spicy alt-text for them and posting it along with the images in this thread for the #AltAfterDark community... Because #AccessibilityIsHotAF 😉

CW: #EmotionalUnpacking #Sexuality While talking about poly relationships this evening, my observant ace girlfriend pointed out that just last summer my sexuality would've made bunnies blush, but these last few months I've been leaning more tortoise than hare. I gave it some thought, and I believe there are a few things at play. Thing the first—and most obvious (to me)—I gained a few pounds. Not much, but just enough to make a few pairs of my already skintight jeans too tight to wear comfortably. The funny thing about unrealistic beauty standards is that you can know they're bullshit, and that they're designed to make you feel bad so you'll buy more shit, and that you wouldn't hold anyone else to them...but that doesn't make you go any easier on yourself when you fail to live up to them. Thing the deuce—I made a friend a little while back, and the relationship got pretty sexually charged. We ended up spending a couple nights together, having sex a few times, and taking a bunch of hot photos...then they kinda ghosted me. There was more to it than that, but the short is that I felt pretty burned, and I've only done a few nude shots since then. Thing the trois—the US is pretty fucked right now, and the creeping taint has kinda taken a toll on my mood. It takes more energy to just exist day to day, and the result is that I'm being less social—I haven't been to any social events lately, I haven't gone dancing, and I'm even having trouble rallying to go to protests. I'm sure a lot of folx are feeling similarly. Finally, I've noticed a sharp drop in flirting around here, which I suspect is a result of the general tone of doom in the air. ... So that's why I haven't been posting new adult content, or giving #AltAfterDark the love it deserves, or going on new dates, or posting #FediRailed Lovense links, or starting punnuendo threads lately. That all said, I still have two amazing partners who I love very much, and a fantastic sex-life—which is plenty. But a little more flirting wouldn't hurt 😉
