@neil I have Mastodon on my desktop PC set to always show CW'd posts and only hide it on my phone where I might be in public, so I can't tell how much is CW'd or unCW'd. I boost porn when I see it, as my account name would suggest. But it seems to me like there is no hashtag or group that aggregates these posts any more. There used to be smutstodon but it doesn't seem like it is used much any more. Maybe a note like "boosts appreciated" could encourage more people to boost the porn?
@ApostateEnglishman@thomasfuchs Biologist here. I'm not quite sure what your argument is. That developing the capacity for speech is equivalent to stealing every text humankind ever put into writing in order to reproduce human speech patterns?
For #TerryPratchettDay I want to share one of my favourite quotes. There are many, but this one just resonates with me as a writer. Sir Terry Pratchett's work is about how important stories are to humans and as a storyteller who grew up loving his books, unsurprisingly I feel the same way. He was the first celebrity where I was truly gutted when he died. Much love to everyone who was touched by his stories. ๐
@Gargron I am a woman and I adore Davidson's Cool Water and Hot Water. In fact, I use Hot Water whenever I put on any perfume. It's unlike any of the smells you describe.
Happy #InternationalAsexualityDay to all who celebrate. ๐ค ๐ค ๐ I recently learnt that I have quite a few ace readers and I know a few ace erotica writers as well. Ace representation is pretty bad so I tried writing something sweet a few years ago. I hope you enjoy:
The Ace Couple has a great podcast on asexual rep, history, and life through an asexual lens. I didn't know them yet when I wrote the story back in 2020 but highly recommend them now:
@mike@ploum I think most of continental Europe consider Brits Europeans ๐ Britain usually excludes itself, not the other way round (most devastatingly with Brexit, of course).
Come April, I'll be out of freelance work. Anyone need a freelance writer? I only talk about my erotica here but I am a biologist with a uni diploma and I have a background in biotech and pharma.
So I'll write something sexy or something educational or both, I'm your ho.
"Book publisher #HarperCollins said it will start translating romance novels under its famous Harlequin label in France using AI, reducing or eliminating the pay for the team of human contract translators who previously did this work."
@SJAsh_03@light I think Herakles wearing female clothes and do "women's work" is just supposed to be funny. Kinda the same vein as Hulk Hogan as a babysitter. Or if Superman had to wear a dress and do housework.
Graeco-Roman paganism had mystery cults with a "special" afterlife, the most well-known is Orphism. Early Christian writers slammed the pagan gods as horny and immodest. Not sure if consent of women was a priority for early Christians, it certainly isn't for recent ones.
The preliminary results of Germany's election are in and 20% of Germans voted for the far right party AfD and 28% for conservative party CDU, joining France and Italy in strengthening the far right and conservatives in Europe. Once again the majority votes against their own best interests. Both conservative and far right parties make policies for the rich, not for the majority and not for the poor. Please, #Europe, don't repeat the 1920s! ๐คฎ
Several generic porn accounts following me lately.
What I love, instant follow:
- People being sexy on their account, i.e. posting suggestive and nude images of themselves and their consenting partner(s) - People horny posting on their account with actual articulation of horny thoughts - People promoting their own adult creations of all kinds where I can see that it is actually made by the same person
What I don't love:
- Generic porn accounts posting unattributed porn showing other people
Last night was the longest night of the year in Greece, so #Helios had his shortest work day.
"At the winter solstice, the sun would seem to be a little child like that which the Egyptians bring forth from a shrine on the appointed day, since the day is then at its shortest and the god is accordingly shown as a tiny infant." Macrobius, #Saturnalia
