Are We in a β€˜Smut Renaissance’?

Sure, we're in a "smut renaissance," but maybe you've noticed we're also in a Christian Nationalist censorship regime that is trying to restrict the internet. (Might be worth mentioning!)

These aren't unrelated. As "hardcore" is demonized and erased, social acceptance of "softcore" rises.

do cosplayers at cons do big hotel orgies? I imagine it’s like the olympics. and doesn’t everyone want to fuck mario or toad or batman or something? or are the costumes too fragile and precious

cosplayer bait (compliment)

working on more gay hockey game cutscenes. each character is actually made of clones that I toggle on/off, easier to pose / choreograph blocking like this #screenshotsaturday

The Neoliberalism of Robert A.M. Stern The passing of postmodern architecture’s last living holdout marks the end of an eraβ€”and reminds us that we’re in a new, worse one.

wrote about robert am stern (rip) and how postmodern architecture worked to disguise the rise of neoliberalism www.thenation.com/article/cult...

I think I agree with @kkukshtel.bsky.social 's comment on the page... like an AI chatbot companion isn't super different from a messaging-app-themed visual novel dating sim thing?

we shouldn't pretend time is a unified construct. like the famous last line of the great gatsby, let us all "bareback ceaselessly into the past"

if anything, we don't have enough arbitrary clock changes!! I think all gay people should go 6 hours into the future

sorry I like daylight savings, it's a nice reminder that time is arbitrary and we can just change the numbers when we feel like it

In May '25, a beloved Australian games website was sold off. It went dark then, a month later, rose from the dead but stuffed full of gambling links and AI authors.

It wasn't the first time, or the last time, this exact thing had happened. And it's still happening.

My months-long investigation πŸ‘‡

we switched mostly for cheaper domain / email, and it's been mostly fine, just expect the feature sets to feel like 10 years ago. e.g. drive app phone photo sync is weird, mac drive app can't sync shared folders yet... lots of multi-platform edge cases

watched Tea & Sympathy (1956)... tried it for the queer themes, but stayed for the drama, and the age gap stuff still feels transgressive today
