yes, we still remember that embarrassing thing you said 25 years ago

If you remember pointless stuff like this, you didn’t have much to think about during that period.

That’s so cute and really hot! 🧡

And then we wonder why more people are becoming cynical.

Communication that can’t be shut down

Uhm, it can definitely be shut down with enough funding. We’re at the mercy of rich people in any case.

Whether we wanted to be or not, we’re building the resistance network.

I’m sorry, but I can’t take this seriously right now. How are you resisting exactly? It’s not as if you’re building a whole new infrastructure from scratch, you’re just rearranging the same pieces over and over again and it leads to no changes in the foundation.

Self-hosting is cool, but it’s not a meaningful change in the big picture. As you saw, one manufacturer decided to do something stupid, RAM prices went up, that’s it, simple as that. And you depend on that, unless you have a way to manufacture it yourself, you’re at their mercy.

Self-hosting social networks doesn’t fix the foundational problems with online human communication right now either. It helps a bit, but fix, definitely no.

When self-hosting becomes too expensive, what can you do? Nothing, absolutely nothing.

Now, my goal is not to discourage trying, but looking at what we’re actually doing and how to actually make a change. Chasing our own tails will get us nowhere and I fear that’s what powerful people are counting on. “Go play with your cute toys, leave the toy making to us!”

There are hot single bots for sure.

I don’t think there’s any toy that can taste like pussy right now. Maybe there is some Japanese lube which gets close to smell and taste, but the material of the toy itself will always feel off. There probably are some DIY projects to make it a bit closer, but I haven’t looked into that.

That’s perfection! 💖

Yeah and seem to mess with blood pressure way too much.

Hmm another mention of poppers, but they still scare me a bit. 😅

Literally me.

It sounds like your sexuality is expanded overall (like multi-dimensionally)

That’s such an interesting way to say it, haven’t thought of it that way before. Now you got me thinking. 😅

I always practice it either by edging without release or by doing anal play, but I haven’t caged myself long term yet.

The effects for me are:

• being on the verge of arousal all of the time, which is such a fun feeling
• being a lot more in touch with my kinks and sexuality, without any shame
• a significant reducing of overthinking
• a lot more leaking, which I find really arousing
• sexual fantasies are longer and more detailed
• I appreciate my whole body a lot more, I can just touch everywhere forever

What’s the longest you’ve gone without an orgasm?

For me it was 30 days.

If done intentionally, what were you hoping to achieve?

The first time I did, it was just to see how I’d feel. Since then it has become a normal part of my sexuality. What I’m hoping to achieve every time now are the effects I listed above.

Why did you end the orgasm denial streak?

Sometimes it’s by accident, but I’ve gotten better at this. My discipline is definitely a lot better now. When it’s not by accident I just felt like I’ve pushed myself enough and allow myself a release. Sometimes I set a specific amount of days as a minimum.

Did you do it solo or with a partner?

For me it’s been solo.

Also, if you’re into this sort of thing

I definitely am as you can probably tell and I instantly subscribed, thanks for making it! We definitely need more proper communities for this topic. Also thank you for making this post!

Ah I see, well still nice, but yeah like you said it’s not something that can be done often.

I agree.

I’ll probably skip them for now, but thanks for sharing! I’m sure that most people who use poppers responsibly are fine, but I’m just not feeling too comfy with them.

Oh interesting, I’m sure such a come up would make the trip really nice afterwards.

I’ve been curious about them as well, but they kind of scare me. Also the short duration seems weird. I wonder if nitrous will have a similar effect.

Have you had any bad side effects from poppers?

I’m assuming the trip didn’t involve a high dose, because my comedowns on higher doses were always weird.

Well Cannabis is definitely very different for everybody. Not only that but a single person can have different “phases” with it. I’ve had periods where I’m sure it wouldn’t have worked for me as well. At some point I just felt it doing it for me, that’s when I started using it more for sex.

I’m definitely curious about psychedelics with sex, I hope to eventually try that. Although it’s not something you can do often. My idea with the post is if people have a substance they often use in a sexual context.

I feel like from the psychedelics, 2C-B probably has the highest potential to be very erotic. From my experience it doesn’t push you deep in your mind the same way mushrooms and LSD do and as a bonus it’s quite stimulating. The sensitivity enhancement is also quite impressive. It has a reputation for being erotic. I’ve never tried it with sex or masturbation, but I can definitely see the potential from my experience. People calling it a weird mixture of LSD and MDMA, I think are right, at least it felt that way to me as well. Although again, it probably depends on the person and it definitely depends on set and setting.

LSD and mushrooms I also haven’t tried for sex or masturbation. By intuition I feel like in lower dosages they can probably work. It’s not impossible in higher dosages, but I feel like you won’t be able to focus as you’re exploring your mind and your environment and also your perspective on sex might feel quite alien, not to mention the body load probably feeling distracting. I might be totally wrong though so take it with a grain of salt, that’s just my personal thinking about them right now.
