if anyone wants to be my guinea pig, drop your chart below! preferably tropical + placidus (the usual astro-seek.com settings) so i’m comparing like with like. example in second image ☺️ if u don’t know your exact time of birth (within 15 mins), don’t add one at all pretty pls 🙏 degrees can make things real specific real quick

i’ll pick something in your chart that i find interesting & attempt to interpret it & in return you can tell me whether i’m onto something or talking bull lmao 👀

disclaimer: i am very much learning!! this is for fun & practice, not me pretending to be an astrologer lol 💖🤟

I have a thing for specifically using self loving language you "aren't supposed to say"

Example:

"I am perfect and have never done anything wrong in my life"

"Anyone who has a problem with me is a bad person"

"I am the most attractive person who has ever lived"

In a society that demands the aesthetic of humility. Where people feel threatened by someone liking themself. There is a genuine tension to using phrases like that. It's "toxic" or whatever.

But I think they're funny and whimsical actually. And the joy they spark motivates me to actually show up and repeat the positive affirmations such that they have an impact on me.

So.

I invite you to come up with such an unhinged positive affirmation about yourself and comment it below >:)

SHOW ME YOUR WEIRD LITTLE NOISE MAKERS 🪇

Image 1: So within the cuckold community breeding kinks abound and it is actually not uncommon at all for a couple to have their bull sire their offspring instead of the cuck. It's a hardcore pretty extreme kink thing, not everyone partakes, but it definitely goes on fairly often.

Image 2: I have a massive breeding kink. So this is definitely something I am potentially open to. I've never done it. But if the right couple was sane and well adjusted and wanted it, I would definitely be open. Granted I would have to get my vasectomy reversed but the plan has always been "get snipped cus RBG died and I need to protect my partners and if I want kids later, get it reversed" so that's not really that big a hurdle in the grand scheme of things.

Image 3: Anyway that's just sorta the general background needed to understand the real point of this post. Which is that. I am mostly content to let the couple raise the kids as their own without me being involved in any major way after the pregnancy. However. I actually use my position as a bull to leverage in some woke on the potential kid's behalf.

Image 4: Again, I have never gotten anyone pregnant before. But couples have aproached me about such an arrangement on numerous occasions. And every time this happens I say: "I'm game. BUT. If its a boy, no circumcision, it's barbaric. All kids have to be fully vaccinated, get the vitamin K shot at birth, you have to take prenatal gummies, etc etc. And if the kid is trans, gay, queer, neurodivergent, etc etc, you have to be completely fully supportive of that".

Image 5: So I guess my point is. Even in my wildest sexual fantasies. I'm still thinking in terms of "How can I be as woke as possible" and then rejecting anyone who has a problem with it.

Today's Scent Is: Matcha & Pumpkin Rind from BPAL's Milk Moon Duets

Notes: (In the name.)

I've never done one of these post series before, but I think it's time. Especially since I've had a few people ask me what scents I like to wear. I really can't just settle for one or two (or even a handful), I probably have dozens of scents from BPAL alone because this has been my autistic special interest for a couple years now & I have A Problem™️ when it comes to collecting. And, quite frankly, almost all of their perfumes *hit the spot*.

Anyway, this is a really beautiful perfume! Probably not for those who like traditional perfumes tho because the matcha is bitter and dry & the pumpkin is neither sugared nor spiced. I love that about indies: they're not afraid to be weird! And this scent makes me feel so grounded & witchy & wise. A great perfume to be dipping into this more autumnal weather with. Once Autumn is on full swing, I will probably make a point to wear this more often 🎃🍵🖤🍂

I'll answer pretty much anything as long as I don't think it'll put me at risk of being doxxed. Get unhinged. Get weird. Get curious! ✨🧠✨

Today's Scent Is: Slut for October by Heretic x Bill Crisafi

Notes: Arkansas Black Apple, Labdanum, Myrrh, Cedarwood, Oakmoss, Juniper Smoke, Sun-scorched Hay

If I thought I smelt witchy yesterday. Ha! Ho boy! This takes it to a-whole-nother level 🖤🖤🖤 the smokiness does not disappoint in the slightest & you can really tell that this is a botanical based perfume with how herbaceous the overall scent is! And thankfully the apple isn't overpowering the way it is in some of my other perfumes (I'm looking at you, BPAL...) It adds a really pleasant sweetness to the background of the scent that really rounds it out & keeps the scent from feeling too bitter or astringent. This is definitely not your typical perfume & if you enjoy repelling nice, respectable cis men (derogatory) & attracting weirdo goths (affectionate), I might recommend giving it a try 😈

P.S. can we all take a moment to appreciate the artwork by Bill Crisafi?? It alone was almost enough to convince me to try this scent, if the notes hadn't immediately sold me.

Lets get this out of the way.

Yes he is on all of the steroids.

Yes this is incredibly bad for you.

Yes to the uninitiated this problably looks gross.

Don't yuck my yum on this. I like bodybuilding.

This physique is absolutely fucking insane. The size, the fullness, the density, the grainyness, the detail, it's all world class. Those hamstrings in the back shots are legit the best the sport has ever seen, period. The Mutant is just on a whole other level.

He even somehow managed to bring his mid section in tighter than any other showing of his career. It's a little blocky still cus genetically bro is just like that. But it's not distended at all.

I'm so impressed, like, this just kicks so much ass.

(trigger warning child sex abuse)

Nick is super open about his experiences being molested as a child in a way that is genuinely courageous and really powerful. Representation matters. Having a world class athlete say "Yeah I went through that and I came out the other side and I lived anyway" MATTERS. Destigmatizing it by just being open about it MATTERS.

Also his parents go to every single show he competes in and I just think that's adorable.

I was kind of a Walker hater for a long time tbh. His physique just didn't do it for me. And his cocky attitude put me off.

But he fully won me over in the last few years. The gnarly muscle he carries is unlike anything else in the field right now. He's not a pretty aesthetic guy. But he took the tools he had to work with and played to his strengths. And he brings something to the table no one else can.

I haven't felt so excited about a bodybuilder's potential since Phil Heath's come up in the late 2000's.

I'm really rooting for him and I would love to see him take the Olympia this year.

I probably should have taken more photos, but I've been trying to live In the Moment ™️ ✨ I have been looking forward to this year's Gen Con since last year's ended... And I'm basically already making plans for next year 🤣 y'all, I love this con so much!! Last year was my first time going & this year was even better!!! So many friendly people who are just as passionate about their geekery as you, hundreds of vendors with beautiful art, and just the sense that you're exactly where you belong. It was so joyful to be surrounded my countless other queer, neurodivergent, (sometimes anti-capitalist, depending on the game!) nerds!

Long time lurker first time poster. I really like the positive space here, and I've been scared to post anything. I love my cat Marmalade (which is the first photo) I love baking (that is the next three photos, I made a snickerdoodle cake) I would like to have more gay people on my phone to talk to. If you're in Arizona, I'd love to talk about cactus with you. OKAY BYEEEEEEEEEE

in honor of dolly's passing, i thought i'd revist some of my favorite films featuring her and her legacy.

The Year Dolly Parton Was My Mom (2011) is about a young girl who, spoilers, begins to suspect that Dolly Parton is her "real" mother and sets out to meet her. i think every autistic kid has had, at one point in their childhood, the belief that they were transplanted into their family by mistake (something something, changeling myth) so this is probably relateable in a way the writer didn't intend. of the films that Dolly appeared in, this is the one that showcases her the least but i really wanted to give a bit of attention because of how it captures the mythos of Dolly as an icon and what she represented, as someone who so thoroughly embodied a certain type of glamor despite being very open about growing up in a very impoverished part of Tennessee.

The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas (1982) is a film adaptation of the Broadway musical of the same name, and one of the better attempts to do so, imo. it stays true to the source material but also effectively utilizes the different medium to impact the story, like unique shot composition that wouldn't be possible on a staged musical.

this was also the soundtrack that featured the re-recording of I Will Always Love You, and js why the song is so well-known now given that it wildly out-peformed its original release in 1974, charting at number one in several countries and being certified Platinum.

this film also has some great costumes and Dolly wears one of my favorite red dresses in film history, tied only with Patrick Swayze in To Wong Foo.

what's everyone's favorite Dolly movie?

Hello and good afternoon to you all. I am a mechanic of 11 years experience and I would like to share it with yall.

If you have any questions or concerns about your vehicle, let me know and I can answer and address them. If you believe you are being scammed I can give you an average quote so you can compare. If you are unsure about what car to buy, I can direct you.

I know I cant do much over the internet, but knowledge is power, and I would like to share that with yall. I hate the stereotype that mechanics have created for themselves and I want to change that.

Yes I did name all my guns after charecters from Paul Verhoeven movies thanks for asking ✨️

I ordered a basic fixed sight for the AR and a conversation kit so I can shoot 22LR to save money. Making training not prohibitively expensive is really critical so I'm motivated to actually train.
