I don't see anyone talking about it on tumblr yet, but forums.rpgmaker.com is going down on June 18th and being deleted entirely in December.

Hey what the fuck

Fun fact: Doxing myself but I live in the blast zone if that thing ever goes up! It's even immortalised in a local artwork:

Image ID: Text "Fourteen inches and seventeen pounds of cast iron penis. My late husband found this in the walls of an early 1900s farmhouse that he helped a friend demolish. He wanted to throw it in with his scrap pile and I wouldn't let him. I mean seriously...who would scrap this?!?" Under this are three pics of a dildo plus balls made out of cast iron. The member is placed on a work table and 2 of the pics also show licence plats and things hung on the wall behind it. The penis it's self shows the signs aged cast iron does, slight rusting and tarnishing. It has a rounded end with a little ring at the tip end, and has a sligh curve to it making it look quite fallic indead. It looks as though, with the balls, it could have been used with a harness, or for personal use. End ID

I remembers reading about how women in Nantucket and New Bedford and what not, would keep "he's-at-homes" (scrimshaw dildos) for use while their husbands were out whaling (which was like a multiple years at sea job)

I love that it's not just that they had dildos while their husbands were away, but that presumably their husbands gave them to them. And not just gave them to them – scrimshaw is the art of the whaler, carving sculptures from the bones and baleen on their catches. So the husbands probably carved them for their wives. The 'think of me' on the one above seems like confirmation. That's love, that is.

To answer some questions: this is properly called a Chinese Thread Book, or Zhen Xian Bao. I followed the tutorial below when I made mine several years ago. It's not one single piece of origami, it's actually 31 (very repetitive) pieces that lock into each other. (If memory serves, I believe I added a bit of glue when I attached them to make it extra secure.)

One time when I was a kid a group of girls and I had to treat another student for hypothermia by ourselves because she had so many invisible health issues that the adults we asked for help didn't believe us. The student in question was actively hallucinating. When I finally ran for help the people I grabbed were slow as shit to respond, casually joking about how "dramatic" the person in question was.
