Long-time Hypno top.

So LA has been — and continues to — protest against ICE. These protests haven’t gotten any smaller or lost any momentum, but social media wasn’t reflecting it.

TikTok users, realizing that the platform/other social media are censoring/deleting/shadowbanning these protest videos, decided to find a workaround.

They’re calling it the LA Music Festival. Ice detention centers and other protest locations are “stages.” The hottest band is Rage Against the Machine. “Here’s what gear you should be bringing to stay safe at the LA Music Festival.”

And it fucking worked.

TikTok has become a proving ground for a lot of new music, meaning lots of labels and organizations have lucrative deals with TikTok to promote their new artists and music festivals. So they absolutely cannot censor the words “music festival” or train the algorithm to ignore it, or they risk endangering that very important revenue.

None of these terms solely classify the “inhuman”. The beginning of a fundamental misunderstanding. This is not an ironic reclamation of any term, it’s a sincere connection between ideology and identity.

I don’t believe those who would call themselves bimbos are less than or princesses more than, so where does this belief come from? How did you arrive at a place where you can criticize the use of these terms as inherently negative? Are you superior to those who express sexuality and personal identity by using these words? Are those who do so really responsible for perpetuating facism?

Imagine wandering into a corner of the internet where gay people are very clearly playing with power dynamics, calling each other “sissy” and “fairy boy” deliberately, consensually, and because it turns them on and I say, “you’re perpetuating homophobia.”

“By using their words” is how you put it. If you expect to rid every term in your vocabulary which has been co opted by authoritarian power and whose meaning is shifted and weaponized against the marginalized you’d be better off not speaking. What if I said “Trailer trash against toxic runoff” would you denounce my language and say this term is used by fascists, therefore perpetuating wealth inequality?

Your objection flattens all of that nuance. It treats context, consent, colloquial terminology, and subcultural language as irrelevant. That isn’t radical critique, it’s just analytically lazy.

BDSM, sexual denigration, and power dynamics have ancient roots. This exploration of identity and sexuality has and will again exist without authoritarianism, they are not irrevocably linked, and use of these terms does no inherent harm.

Subverting the monopolistic control power has over sex requires authentic unapologetic sexual expression. Embracing terms like these and “keeping them in the collective conscious” is not something that fascists benefit from. It is sacrosanct personal expression of sexuality and it is sexual liberation. It’s not irony, again, it’s identity. Historically fascist powers deployed sexual repression legally and culturally to uphold its structures. This entire topic was laid out in Reich’s Mass Psychology of Fascism nearly a century ago.

Originally, Reddit's own rules discouraged posting your own content to the site (but did not ban, instead encouraging a 9:1 ratio of <other content>:<your content>). This was partially because that's advertising and they could be selling that advertising space, but also because people don't generally like ads mixed in with their 'list of actually interesting content' and they didn't want the place overrun by self-serving bots and corporations. You can see a reflection of this in Rule 2 of their rules, but adult workers posting links to images of themselves is entirely normal for the site.

Links can only be posted in subreddits, and those subreddits are generally themed around a certain topic. Technology posts in /r/technology, Minecraft in /r/minecraft, nude selfies in /r/gonewild (hosted offsite in the beginning because Reddit didn't host images, and now ), erotic hypnosis in /r/EroticHypnosis, etc. (Technically, you can make a subreddit called '/r/guzumptomini' and say it's for posting content relating to third century Egyptian art. The name is not a rule, as you will see later.)

So going into Reddit with the understanding that much of it is NOT about 'you', but is about 'topics' and 'themes' is a helpful perspective and understanding to have. It's not Twitter. It's not Tumblr. It's not Fetlife. It's about "content aggregation". It's not about you, it's about the content. If you want to post bimbo content, there's probably several subreddits for that, and depending on what else is going on in that content, it can be posted to a bunch of other subreddits, too.

Links shown to you on Reddit come from the default selection of subreddits you start out subscribed to by default as a new user. If you don't want links from /r/TwoXChromosomes showing up in your feed, unsubscribe from that subreddit after creating an account.

They may also have an algorithm style insertion of links for trending posts or suggestions based on what you interact with, but that can result in content showing up in your feed that you don't want to see. Mine's off, so I *only* see content from subreddits I'm subscribed to. Hence why I'm less sure about their injection of other links: I haven't seen it in years. It may be on by default.

If you are only subscribed to /r/aww, and all 'suggested' insertions are off, you will only see content posted in /r/aww. This is how you control your feed of content you see.

Almost every subreddit was started by a user, and users selected by the owner of the subreddit to be moderators moderate the subreddits in their own time.

Reddit Admins are the people responsible for policing the general rules of Reddit as a whole, and generally don't interfere in moderation decisions. But they absolutely will ban someone for saying (with seriousness) "all <gender/sex> are a disease" anywhere on the site. I've seen it happen, and am thankful for it.

Each subreddit has its own rules; for example, if you sell content online *anywhere* and you post a nude selfie in /r/gonewild? You'll be banned from /r/gonewild so you can no longer post or comment there.

Subreddits being run by users mean that a subreddit can be about a different topic than what its name may imply. For example:

/r/conservative is practically nothing but Russian Propaganda and you will be banned if you question the current narrative.

/r/trees is about marijuana, /r/marijuanaenthusiasts is about trees, /r/treelaw is about stories involving people facing justice for harming trees that don't belong to them (though it has slowly changed over the years to also become a place for legal advice about trees).

And /r/legaladvice is significantly populated by police giving out bad legal advice, as well as armchair "lawyers" with no law experience or degree handing out incorrect advice with ChatGPT-level confidence.

The rules for each subreddit are posted on a 'sidebar' in that subreddit. Sometimes the rule is "don't post content that goes against <link to long list of banned content>", and you'll need to click the link to see whether or not your particular kind of content is banned. There are many many subreddits that allow for posting adult content if you are a seller; /r/gonewild is simply explicitly for non-commercial users, because that's what the people there want.

Technically I believe uploading adult images to Reddit is disallowed, but I believe there is little to no enforcement of this? But to do so you may need to find workarounds past any part of their interface that prevents uploading images to something marked NSFW. It's easier to post the content elsewhere and link to it; Redgifs is the commonly used site for this purpose. Other sites may be auto-blocked by moderation tools.

Soundgasm.net was originally made for /r/gonewildaudio, and is generally the place most people will upload adult audio.

If you want to post your own content to Reddit, there are two or three avenues. Keep in mind that I don't post my own content, so I'm describing this based on my general impressions I have from seeing what others do.

One is to post it to your personal profile. (You can pin a couple things in this as well, and sellers will generally have at least one post that is either a direct link to where you can make purchases of their content, or a text post similar to a pinned post here on Tumblr.) This content is basically only seen by users who visit your profile, and may or may not get a lot of views. (The newer Reddit interface may provide for more notifications about content of this nature, but many of us still use the old-school interface, which does not.)

Secondly is to post it to subreddits relating to the content. Hucow themed? /r/hucow. But also maybe /r/erotichypnosis, /r/lactation, etc, depending on if there's a thematic link. And each of those subreddits has their own rules which may or may not allow your content. For example, you can only post self-promotional material on /r/erotichypnosis once a week. (That subreddit is much more for discussions around the topic than it is for porn.)

Posting to subreddits people are already subscribed to is generally how you draw people into your profile, and eventually your own subreddit if you have/want one. If comments allowing mentioning your content are allowed on a subreddit, a user may post a comment pointing people to their content on a link they posted (but I rarely see this, so I suspect many subreddits do not allow this).

The third option for posting content is to create your own subreddit (typically named after your username on the site OR a username you're well known by on some other site) and to post your own content there. Keep in mind that I have the firm impression that if you do this, you must *actively* respond to any messages sent to your moderation queue by users, or Reddit will eventually decide that your subreddit is unmoderated and ban it. And people won't generally 'naturally' find your subreddit unless you're posting your links to something they're already subscribed to, and they look at your profile to see the content posted to your subreddit as well.

Finding appropriate subreddits to post content in is likely going to be the first struggle. Google can help, but so can finding other users who post content similar to yours, checking out their profile, and seeing if any subreddits they're posting to fit the 'theme' of what you're aiming for.

Putting a coat on the back of a chair by the door is fine, but if you prefer, use coat hooks and a large catch-all basket for dropping keys, hats, gloves.

Small bookcase end-table next to the couch to store craft projects, books, and other things being worked on for easy access.

Add a storage unit near the dining room table to transition between eating and working there.

Daily toiletry items should be stored in a basket that you can move easily

Extra toiletries and medicine cabinet items go in open shelf/basket storage so they can be seen and used easily. If items no longer fit, purge the excess. Don’t obscure the view!

If you disrobe in the bathroom, place a tall hamper in there.

Keep a set of cleaning supplies in each bathroom

For once, a NT author sat down and took the time to really understand adhd and rearranged their whole methodology just to fit, and it shows. She explicitly says that a well-organized adhd house will not look like a well-organized NT house, and that is absolutely fine. Organization has to be about what works for you.

BUT! This shit WORKS. And I want/need our home to work for all of us.

So the solution has been figuring out what spaces really need what solutions. Like…I don’t go hang out in the bathroom, so that’s a good space for transparent organization to work- with me taking the opaque drawers for my use because the others don’t like them. The play room is an obvious space to prioritize my daughters needs, to. If I want her to be able to clean up after herself, then I need to make that easy for her to learn to do herself, in a space that works for her.

But the livingroom, where I relax, and where people come over, is a space mostly free of these techniques. Instead, we take turns doing 10 minute clean up’s per night. Since it’s only one comparatively small space and we have a well established and shared routine, that always keeps it easy to tidy. Also, most objects that might have accumulated there have a well established other home to go to.

The kitchen had to be a compromise zone. If there’s stuff all over the counters the space feels upsetting and unusable to me. But things that are in opaque cabinets functionally cease to exist for the other two. The compromise turned out to be keeping some visually not too busy items on the counter, like spaghetti, in a clear container, but to otherwise keep the countertops clutter free. Items like spices, ladles and stuff were replaced with cheap but reasonably aesthetic versions and put on shelves. See, organizing them in a pretty way isn’t just to make my kitchen instagramish. Use of things like grouping, pattern, respect for color harmony, and material reduce the amount of visual noise, which leaves me ok having them visible, without them being hidden.

I want/need our home to

work for all of us.

1. are all involved parties adults? (including planned observers)

2. did all involved parties give informed consent while able to give consent meaningfully (including uncoerced)?

3. did the actions stay within the bounds of said consent, not adding on new things while someone was unable to meaningfully consent / revoke consent?

if yes to all three: IT'S FINE

if it passes all three conditions and you still think it's morally wrong: you're judging based on your own sense of disgust, not any reasonable moral framework!

if you are trying to say "okay but what if...": did you read what i just fucking said??

If you live in the US and you have a phone you need to keep secret for any reason, make sure that it is turned off at this time.

Yes, I'm doing this months in advance, and yes, my blog has very little reach, but I figure better to post about it more than less.

TURN OFF YOUR OTHER PHONE AND DO NOT TURN IT ON AGAIN UNTIL YOU ARE ALONE AND SAFE BECAUSE THE ALARM WILL COME THROUGH AS SOON AS THAT PHONE IS POWERED ON.

AGAIN I REPEAT:

OCTOBER 4, 2023

THE ALARM WILL COME THROUGH AS SOON AS THAT PHONE IS POWERED BACK ON.

SO ONLY POWER IT BACK ON WHEN IT IS SAFE TO DO SO.

OCTOBER 4, 2023

If this doesn't make sense, then good news it's not for or about you but still reblog it because you never know who may need to know this.

Well.. I was extremely excited and horny and couldn’t wait any longer to use the toy so I gave in, and as promised, here is the recording. 

This recording wasn’t spurred by anything other than my desperation so I did zero planning, this means it’s definitely not my most polished or thought through recording. 

There’s a fair bit of preamble, and some time where I just decide on the spot what it is I’m gonna do. It was the first time I’d had any toy in me for at least a month, and the first vibrator since April. So.. it doesn’t take me very long at all to edge each time and my mind breaks fairly quickly. This was great, obviously, and as it should be. But content wise it means there are a few short bursts of edging in between quite a lot of mindlessness. it also means towards the end I’m silent for quite long periods of time as my mind is not functioning at all, and at the end I literally drop away mid sentence.
