My existence is political. Through no choice or fault of my own. I'll go exist somewhere else. See ya.

I’m glad I got on your radar somehow. And once there, I hope the read was worth the time spent! 😀 Thanks for taking this one for a spin. I love how it turned out.

It inspired a great deal of fear in evil, wealthy men. But you're right. Not enough. It was a warning from a populace that's stretched tight as a drum. When you have average people celebrating an assassination, and the terrifying deaths of five uber-wealthy people in a terribly designed submarine, you know things are about to bubble over. A reckoning is coming. And it will not treat the wealthy kindly. And you know? It's what they deserve.

Yeah. The problem is that it'd take using those same tools on the far-right element of our country until they decided it's an issue worth dealing with. If it doesn't affect them, it's not a problem. That's how they see things. A CEO of a rapacious corporation getting gunned down on the street DID get their attention, though. If that's what it takes? Well ... then that's what it takes.

It infuriates me. That this country is so paralyzed by bowing to the orange king. By "the right to bear arms." That it'd give up the right to life by those too young to even know why they're being murdered. We have the right to bear arms. Make it reasonable. Make it make sense. I grew up around guns. I had one at twelve years old. But I was taught to respect it. To take great care where it pointed, and that it was a tremendous responsibility resting in my hands. But I'd give it up. If it meant Sandy Hook never happened. I'd give it up.

Skyrim is a HUGE game. Well done. And there are so many little stories buried in it. Even books to read within the game itself. Nice job!

It's an ancient game now, but Planescape: Torment won many awards for its storytelling. It spawned novels and features an incredible plot and wild characters. You can find art and creativity in unexpected places. Video games can be vapid, just like any other medium, but they can also be chillbump-raising experiences. Not from fear (well, sometimes!), but from intensity of emotion. I appreciate them. I play them. But only the ones that inspire something.

Well, you knew you were allowed to grope him. That's the important part. Welcome back, tim.

Please, give him our love, Mike. We'll see him when he's ready.

I think the six posts in the DiC main forum probably exhausted our collective expertise.

Thank you, tim. I was going to ask for some moderation in relation to all this ... straightness.

Yes. And how was the ... service?

Yes. From all of my research, Doms love being called "softies."

See? Poetry. NOW I'm being a smart ass. 😛

Usually, but in this case, I'm not kidding. Who better to describe your life than you? We both know there's a lot of misrepresentation and co-opting of D/s in ways that don't tell the whole story, or worse - in ways that twist it into something it's not. I myself had a dismal opinion of D/s until I met tim and you (for reasons we've discussed). You're an authority. If you wanted to, you could.
