With the weather getting colder, I need a new thermos for tea water after the lid to the last one broke. I saw this one, and kinda want it because I’m a dope. But, £50 😵
It’s called The Pearl Royale,
and its appearance suggests it’s fit for a queen. Created by Australian
jeweler Colin Burn, the made-to-order piece is composed of solid
platinum and bejeweled with pink and white diamonds, blue sapphires, and
South Sea pearls. Stylistically, its crown-shaped top connotes royalty
– or, say, something that would be perfect for the paramour of a
Russian oligarch. The South Sea pearl at the top of the device functions
as a key to operate it or can be detached and worn as a necklace. If
you want all your friends to know just how fancy you like your bespoke
love, the custom tool comes in a wall-mountable display box.
Love too surf the internet at 2 in the morning.
They also have a £138,000 king cobra-shaped platinum cock ring (“Thought to be the most exclusive cock ring in the world”), but I hear the silver one works nearly as well in terms of ostentatiously preserving your vile tumescence.
Granted, I’m only 40% certain they’ve ever actually sold a single product.
Reminded by my tag commentary here, the Roanoke and New River Valleys did/probably still do have bigger queer communities than some people might expect.
Not so much on the party side–at least before I left–but pretty good areas to live and work if you are interested in going about your business without a lot of shitty interference. (In general, but also enough to get specifically mentioned as an oddity. Nope, not just imagining some differences there.)
And I can’t help but miss that sometimes, tbqh. Really was not well prepared for living somewhere that the general approach is…really not like that. At all. When a lot of people would just assume it would go the other way.
been watching livestreams of US news channels lately and
1) they have a LOT of commercial breaks
2) i didn’t realize that ads for medicine were actually like this
ppl keep reblogging this and asking “well what are the medicine ads like in your country” and like…there aren’t any? It’s literally illegal to advertise prescription medicine here?
Like the same people who call out creepy or annoying behavior in men specifically, will encourage it or cheer it on of a lesbian does it.
Man to a woman with a book who doesn’t look like she wants to talk: “you’re hot.”
Tumblr: “this is why I hate men. Can’t they get a clue???”
Lesbian to a woman with a book who doesn’t look like she wants to talk: “you’re hot.”
Tumblr: “Yaaaaas! Put that book down and converse with the love of your life!”
Also applies to women who do this to men. Accept of course that a man who doesn’t immediately give the woman attention is shamed and hated, while the same reaction to the action for the reverse is frowned upon and portrayed as sexism.
I was having weird ambivalent feelings about “lesbian desire is not predatory” and I think you just articulated why.
Desire, in and of itself, is not predatory, and WLW should not fear being predators because they happen to desire women.
But anyone can behave in a predatory way and use the fact that they feel desire to excuse it.
Remember our history. Our discourse cannot be sound without it. This is our legacy.
i’m pretty sure i’ve reblogged this before, but i’m gonna go ahead and do it again because the late ‘80s / early ‘90s were fucking terrifying. queer rights was literally a life and death struggle.
I would just like to add that this isn’t just history. It’s still happening. HIV/AIDS is still a problem worldwide, and yes, that includes the US. Even with all of the medical advancements that have been made over the last 30 years, we’re a long way out from eradication.
In fact, here’s some news about how the Trump administration is affecting the ongoing fight against AIDS. It is not good.
Sure, this epidemic used to be worse. But it’s not over.
