There's a bill in Oklahoma (SB593) that is seeking to make it a felony to produce, trade in or otherwise possess "obscene materials" with a penalty of 10 years in prison and a permanent place on the sex offender registry. This bill is a bounty hunter law, which means any person can report you and receive a reward. Listen up because if you're reading this, this law will apply to YOU.

What are obscene materials?

Obscenity is an intentionally vague category of unprotected speech that according to SCOTUS in Miller v. California includes the following:

The average person sees the material as having or encouraging excessive sexual interest based on community standards.

The material depicts or describes sexual conduct in a clearly offensive way as defined by applicable state law.

The work, when considered in its entirety, "lacks serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value."

When questioned about at the time, the court responded with "You know obscenity when you see it."

"The average person" is the composition of the court, which Republicans control. The definition of "excessive" is up to people the Christo-fascist Dusty Deevers who drafted the bill. The "community standards" are the sexual mores of right-wing evangelical legislators and the "applicable state law" is this law, which the MAGA movement is seeking to test in Oklahoma and take nationwide, as affirmed by Speaker Mike Johnson, a man so corrupt he somehow got elected without a bank account and sends reports about his porn consumption to his underage son. These people are crazy, they're dangerous and they're coming for YOU.

What is being targeted?

Porn, obviously, but also fanfiction, romance novels, movies, and anything else that could be viewed in public that doesn't cut to black when sex comes up. Anything involving LGBTQ+ characters or anyone the right has successfully fetishized the existence of. Furries, monsterfuckers, ACOTAR girlies, everyone and everything that is not procreative, heterosexual coupling is liable to come under the definition of obscene. If it is on the internet, it is public enough to count. This affects EVERYONE.

How would they enforce it?

Selectively. The point of floating this legislation is not to target the Republicans who shut down Grindr when they gather in one place. It is not to arrest the guys protecting and advocating for child marriages or who don't believe in the marital rape. It isn't to prosecute the known chomos that occupy our halls of power or the convicted serial rapist that sits in the oval office. They are coming for you and me, because felons aren't allowed to vote and this law makes felons of ALL OF US.

If you ever had an abusive parent, a toxic partner, a boss or coworker who sexually harassed you, anyone with an axe to grind that you got away from, ANY of them can turn you in for money. You don't have to be kinky or queer or darker than blue. I'm a cis straight white man and they'll come for me too. If this law passes ANYWHERE, it will affect us EVERYWHERE. Do not let it.

What do we do?

Oklahomans, roll out. Call your state representatives. Show up at their offices. Show up at the state house. Protest. Make noise and spread the word. But this can't all be on you.

If you're in a red state, this bill WILL get shipped to you if it fails. And they will try over and over and over until it sticks. Make that option untenable. Grind your state government to a halt. Remind that you are here and you have the numbers.

If you're in a blue state, pressure your governments for sanctuary laws. Make your lawmakers promise to protect your right to speech and expression. Hold them accountable and let them know that this is unacceptable.

And if you're a MAGA nut or some accelerationist fuckwaffle who thinks this won't touch you, remember that snitching goes both ways. I'm willing to bet the stuff in your homework folder is worth a lot more years than any of ours, and I could use the cash.

It does look that way. I took on sword maiden's adventure journal as a literary project. The posts are answered with the same time delay I received them with a week offset. They've been scheduled for a while and when I don't post anything else, they post in isolation.

I have been away much longer than I've intended. I'm still not well, but I've traded some old ailments for new ones. I'm mostly fighting off some injuries at the moment. My good hand tore a tendon in the wrist and will once again be essentially useless for some indefinite period as it heals. My hip has a hole in it that bleeds sporadically and somewhat profusely. My lovely wife was kind enough to do some triage on it and it's bleeding red now, which is an improvement. I'm still sleeping a lot, but it's more likely because of the steady blood loss than the medication now. Still, I hate being away.

My absence has also drawn the attention of poachers, so I need to make something clear:

If you approach one of my subs and try to take them from me, I will hear about it.

The holiday season knocked me out pretty hard this hard this year and I've been gone too long. So many Good Girls have been worried and while I haven't been able to respond, I have read your well wishes and I'm deeply touched. I have gotten my health back under control and it's time to be back.

I will be going through old asks and trying my best to answer as many as I can. I've got a few other posts that I'll be throwing in there too. I'm working on a few other creative endeavors and once I wrestle them into a stable form, I'll be sharing what I can.

Sorry I've been slow and away. I know I've really been dropping the ball lately and it's bothering me quite a lot. I've been dealing with some medical issues and I just haven't been around as much. I'm still recovering and it's nothing major, but I haven't been responding to messages or keeping up with asks like I should. I still read every ask that comes in and some of you need to hear that I'm very proud of you and that no matter what, you are worthy of love. I'll make sure to be more specific when I get back to answering.

On the brightside, I'm pretty sure I'm losing some weight, which isn't how I wanted to do it, but is nice that I haven't had to work for it. Hopefully once I can stop this immense drain on my body's resources, I'll have more energy and less me to carry around. I want those of you reaching out to know I'm not ignoring you and I haven't forgotten about you. I'm just decomposing a bit and I need to convince an organ or two and this rather insistent fungus that I am, in fact, still alive. Until then, zombie Daddy is going to be a bit slow.

It's a new year and I'm going to be doing my best not to burn out so often. For that reason, I'll be posting Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. I'm posting this on an off day so it can be seen better.

I reserve the right to post older asks on off days just to get through those that I can, but know that I'm saving some energy for other important projects.

Relevant to this blog, I'm scripting and will soon be recording an "album" of audio files that can be used together for Good Girls looking to start their journeys or just reinforce the basics. I would like to get to a place where I'm releasing files regularly, but that will depend on my time management, which I'm notoriously bad at. Still, more "albums" are in the works, so those looking to progress their programming will have their turns too.

Other projects will require our current house to cooperate. If it does, I'll be trying my hand at Vtubing on Twitch and YouTube. If it does not, I'll be seeking out a more cooperative building to live and/or work in and then doing that. The timeline for that will depend primarily on the circumference of the cable person as the crawl space entrance is both narrow and load bearing.

I worked too hard and damaged my back rather badly. I'm stuck on the couch for the foreseeable future and literally unable to move.

That being said, I've been away for too long so while I'm still not answering asks and don't have the stamina for in-depth sessions, I do want to make a few posts. I'm still not "back," but I think a few reminders that I'm not dead would be helpful.
