  2. BlueSky Is A Platform For Attention Whores With No Standards

    I’m convinced that Bluesky is the platform for attention-whores who perform and humiliate themselves for validation and affirmation. It’s really sad. I don’t feel bad when bad things happen to them as a consequence because they were already warned, yet they prioritize fitting into a culture and refuse to deal with their feelings of inadequacy. The reason they stay is that the bar is low for meaningful engagement, allowing them to indulge in their obsessions and compulsions while being rewarded for self-destructive behavior. It truly is quite pathetic.

    I initially joined Bluesky for the sexual content because people on Mastodon have little interest in sex and much more elaborate norms around sexuality. Contrary to what people think of me, I don’t actually use social media in the conventional way most people do. I view it on an abstract, non-algorithmically served layer via my network analysis tools, and I interact with YouTube in a very constrained way. So, I wasn’t aware of how bad things were until I started using Bluesky conventionally. The men on Bluesky are just plain repulsive to me. Desperation, neediness, lack of independence, and obsessively posting about a single topic (like sex, religion, or politics), instead of developing a genuine hobby that demonstrates skill, progress, and mastery, are major turn-offs. I find a lack of standards absolutely disgusting.

    For example, if someone abhorrent gives you a compliment, you don’t accept it. If an abhorrent person follows you, you block them. Yet what I see are men posting sexual content and seeking attention and validation from anyone, regardless of who it’s coming from. If I look through someone’s activity and see nothing but low-effort posts interacting with nothing but sexual content or obsessive engagement with that type of content, I lose interest immediately.

    A reason why my husband has held my attention for over a decade is that there is always something new with him. He is always randomly looking into developing a new skill. One day, he started randomly speaking Mandarin to me, which I did not know he knew how to speak. He had told me he had been learning Mandarin. Yes, my husband is neurodivergent and his interests are cars, but that doesn’t displace all other things. Another reason why my husband holds my attention is that he can keep a conversation going and match anyone’s changes. It’s not one ritualistic or compulsive thing every single fucking day.

    A very real consequence of the lack of standards in gay sexual spaces, especially given that many misogynistic, homophobic far-right men suppress their homosexual attractions, is that many of the fetishes in gay sexual spaces are reminiscent of manosphere content. Because of what I do for a living, I have access to audience segmentation metrics and social embeddings of how content is served. Manosphere content clusters with homoerotic content that men consume. At some point, obsession became so normalized that people stopped realizing it was problematic.

    Unless gay men set boundaries and tell manosphere bros, “we’re not having that,” you’ll see what I see on Bluesky. I’m actually very sexual myself, and I frequently go to bathhouses—those that have very explicit rules—sex parties, and orgies.

    The funny thing is that I have had plenty of really deep philosophical conversations sitting in the hot tub of a bathhouse with naked gay men. Because of health codes and all that, you can’t do sexual things in the pool or the hot tub, so those areas were places for genuine play and conversation, while spots like the saunas were the fuck spots. I recall a particularly interesting conversation I had with an older gay man who had been going to that bathhouse since the ’80s. He explained to me the social context of the HIV epidemic and how, basically, no one knew it was sexually transmitted, so everyone was still barebacking at that exact same bathhouse we were in.

    The issue here is people who fuck and sexually perform for awful people who want to murder them because they have absolutely no fucking standards and are so emotionally needy that they forgo all forms of self-preservation. I’m a computer scientist, so I have access to a lot of data tools. I can tell you for a fact that there is a strong correlation between men who want to murder gay men and trans people and the ones liking, engaging in parasocial dynamics with, and commenting in their replies. You’re willing to take sexual attention from people who want to kill you, and that blows my mind.

    In their minds, Bluesky is better if it is not a Nazi strip bar but a Nazi BDSM-furry-kink club? What the ever-loving fuck?! Honestly, I watch a lot of feminist content that rips manosphere content apart, so much so that I can instantly recognize coded things. The “fuck no!” moment for me is when I saw manosphere-coded things being fetishized in the ego networks of large gay adult content creators and OnlyFans creators in social network embeddings. It’s not like it is insidious. If I see it, everyone else sees it; they are just ignoring it because they are prioritizing sexual validation and their obsessions.

  4. CW: BDSM Sharps Play. No blood. Fishhooks. Body horror (ymmv)?

    Ok uploading higher res images again because you wanted that I am sure?

    I had done fingertip needles before but yeah, hooks are well above that. 20G initial needle, 19G hook fed through so reaming out the hole a bit.

    This was hard. Immediately broke out in a sweat and involuntary hand shaking on the first one.

    Deep visceral body going "noooo. god no what is wrong with you." moment.

    Love it. Hate it.

  5. Watching The Witcher S4.

    Incredibly bad scripting and acting.

    Why am I doing this?

  6. 🥳 Who knew #ZFS was moonlighting as a #samurai, slicing through your #data and your sanity with the precision of a butter knife? 🗡️ Apparently, surviving its #encryption gauntlet requires a PhD in #masochism and a #backup #plan involving an abacus and prayer. 🙏

  7. 🎨📏 Behold, the revolutionary Two Slice font: Because reading shouldn't be enjoyable, it's now possible to squint at text that mimics microscopic ants! 🐜🔍 Perfect for masochists who consider 2px tall fonts a design "breakthrough." 🙄🎉

  8. BB6 is #Hard #Antihydra (2024): 🤯 Behold, #mathematical #masochism at its finest! If you enjoy endless sequences that make your #brain perspire and want to brag about it on #Discord, this one's for you. Just remember, the only thing harder than #BB6 is explaining it to your friends without losing them. 🤓💁‍♂️

  9. CW: Blood. Needles. BDSM. NSFW.

    Beads in needle play are a logistical (and obvious bio) hazard. On the up side the blood made them sticky enough to kind of stay put a bit. Still had to be careful.

  10. CW: NSFW Needles, no blood, some big ones

    Haven't gone through the photos sent to me yet but this one was available right away. This was super cool. I think again everyone is happy with how it came out. The two experimental 8g were way easier than I was expecting lol.

    Happy pride and all! #NeedlePlay #BDSM #masochism

  11. CW: NSFW - [Transfem][Smacking Dildo on Gock][Masochism]

    This shit fucking hurt 😭, but it felt so good 😝. I guess this is one way I can reduce my testosterone now.

  13. CW: 🩸 Blood. Honk. This is your blood warning. This image has blood in it. 🩸

    Beautiful little rivulets #BloodPlay #NeedlePlay #BDSM #Masochism

  14. CW: BDSM needle play. Needles! Tiny tiny spot of blood.

    Ok so the 7 o'clock needles really really fucking hurt lol. I think I've found another of my sensitive spots. I think the back of the thighs hurt more than the front even if we put much bigger sharps in the front. #BDSM #masochism #NeedlePlay

  15. #TIL that #MarianneFaithfull was related to Leopold von Sacher Masoch. I also learned that LSM didn't approve of the use of his name in the word #masochism invented by a conpemporary psychiatrist. Marianne's mother, who appears in this lovely photo gallery, was a Sacher-Masoch: theguardian.com/culture/galler

  16. I need to recommend a book on S&M to help a patient better understand their urges.
    It’s literally been decades since I read on the subject. Can anyone help with suggestions?
    #Bookstadon #Domination #Masochism #Kink something more accessible than encyclopaedic.

  17. As a practical matter two distros for maximum pain and three use candidates.

  18. CW: #NSFW (?), #Masochism, Question

    Random Question popping in to my mind: how much from a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being the highest of a mashocist are you if you feel noticeable disappointed that a bruise you have don't hurt as much as before? ​:nko_think:​

    This question is brought to you by a post from
    @[email protected] which made me remember about the bruise i had couple days ago ​:nko_hide:​

  19. Took me half a day to install ikea blinders in my bedroom. Good job!

    How can I gratify myself now?

    A nice session at Dark Souls remastered, of course!

  20. Given how infuriatingly rigid some of the assessment question answers are and how poorly phrased some of the questions are, I really do wonder why I subject myself to these assessments more than once. 🤔

    #Masochism?

  21. #BDSM is a combination of 3 acronyms:
    1. Bondage and Discipline (B&D)
    2. Dominance and submission (D&S)
    3. #Sadism and #Masochism (S&M)

    It is the giving and receiving of sexual pleasure through the above practices (which can be exceptionally varied and beyond the scope of this article), engaged in voluntarily and with predetermined limits and safety rules set and agreed to in advance by all participants (this is sometimes referred to as "safe, sane, and consensual": SSC for short. RACK is also often used: "risk-aware consensual kink"). Practitioners of BDSM are often termed "kinky."

    - #sadism + #masochism and turning pain into pleasure
    - #exhibitionism
    - #spanking
    - #spit and #bodyFluids
    - #boobs - probably pretty cliche but I fucking love tits (and yes that includes my own, they are pretty great and my nipples are very erogenous)
