Consensual Non-Consent In Real Life A 3 panel comic Panel 1: Kink Negotiation Blushing Person: I was thinking maybe we could try out some CNC play... Person #2: Yeah, we can totally try that out, sweetie! We should plan out what we're willing to do! Panel 2: "The Scene" Person #2: The sex pollen.... it's... taking over. I... I can't...Hnngg.... Blushing Person: Noo! Please, you have to snap out of it! Panel 3: Aftercare Blushing Person: Thanks so much, that was fun. Let's do it again sometime. [end of comic] "The Scene" is the fantasy within a CNC framework. Some fictional works tell a story depicting two (or more) characters following the process of doing CNC kink, just as they would in real life: Consent discussion, Kink negotiation, “The Scene", and Aftercare. [image of a blushing person reading the above comic] Some fictional works focus on “The Scene only. A framing device is not required, as the fantasy is contained fully within the story. This lets the reader engage in the kink the same way as if they were engaging in “The Scene" portion of the CNC play. [image of a blushing person reading only “The Scene” panel from the above comic] CNC play, and both sorts of fiction are normal and healthy!

A comic about CNC kink I've been thinking about for a few years, and I finally decided to sit down and make it.

A man stands on an outcrop of rebar in the space between two massive stone walls. In one hand he struggles with a lamp hanging on a long heavy chain while his other grips a rusted piece of metal anchored to the stone facade. Up high and barely visible is a thin line of hazy daylight that he can't see because he's looking down.

a drawing of karkat. His body is only visible by the red blood dripping down his body, silhouetting it against the black background.

sketches of mu qingfang, one a portrait and one where he is shirtless with his hair down. there is a doodle in the corner of him fussing over an ornery shen qingqiu.

only really exposed to the illustrations of him in the book, read some fic where he had a mustache and looked up the animated version, but i must speak my truth, the mu qingfang in my head is large and soft

A three panel sketch of shen qingqiu (shen jiu) getting ready. From left to right he's applying makeup, then perfume, then putting his hair up.

The Texas GOP’s ‘Unprecedented,’ Risky Gerrymandering Scheme A redistricting expert discusses Tom Delay, ‘dummymanders,’ and the long history of racial gerrymandering in the state.

There are reports that Republicans will try to redraw as many as five currently Democratic districts—from South Texas and Houston to Dallas and possibly Austin—to favor the GOP to flip in the upcoming midterms. That’s a tall task and a politically dicey maneuver—and one we saw 20 years ago.

KOSA is back, speak of the devil. Let's kill it again!

how I feel since 2016 or so

I think continually calling visa and mastercard is good and I think people should also call their reps about KOSA with the same level of intensity.

“Only after having met you did I discover that it's such a simple thing to be happy.” #tgcf

So, obviously the whole Itchio / Visa / Mastercard thing is very bad, and I see a lot of calling campaigns kicking off, so I tried to put together a list of things that can move the needle at a call center. Do with this info what you will.

Yeah, I worked in customer support and, if it's a 'peak' of one day, they will not care. They'll wipe their hands and say "ok, volumes are back to normal, it's fixed"
If after a week they are still receiving pressure... Then they'll begin to get nervous

Angry(?) Binghe 🐺

instead of vowing to take itch down with your justified anger, redirect that anger at the institutions who are directly responsible for strong arming every single platform that sells adult and/or queer art:

i'm going to keep making adult art and so should you. humans have been recreating sacred glimpses of sucking and fucking ever since we had enough hand dexterity to hold tools, and these rat kings of capitalism are at best a few centuries old. don't be scared, art and our humanity will outlive them

It is so, so important to learn to understand the difference between A Gross Thing That Freaks Me Out, versus A Thing Which Causes Actual Harm In The World

because as long as you can't navigate the difference, your disgust is a lever that can be used to manipulate you

Also, it's really weird how this conversation always revolves around "Making farm jobs good enough for Americans."

Farm jobs should be good jobs no matter who's doing them.

Even a lot of self-described progressives seem to have a hard time getting that!

knock it off it's weird
