to any of my followers who aren't on the pervert transbian side of tumblr: please, if you do anything, kill the protestant puritan inside of you. you need to accept that people will have kinks you do not like and that your disgust is not moral righteousness.

Okay, great my landlady is on the warpath and I can't really blame her. I'm behind on April's rent and I have May right on my doorstep. Which means I've got about a week to get $3,000 in or I'm evicted and homeless.
