Continuing the theme of finds from Bluesky – this lovely image comes courtesy of Sacred Sadism via Your Master Gardener. Although I have zero interest in gardening I always find these kind of shots very appealing. I think it’s the combination of objectification combined with being made into something desirable and aesthetically pleasing. I suspect for a lot of male submissives that’s not a common feeling.

Blue Skies Ahead
A funny thing has happened over the last week. There has been a flood of people – including a lot of sex workers – to the Bluesky platform. Just a few posts ago I was fretting over my usage of Twitter. Now it seems my problem might be solved. The vast majority of people I follow there are all actively migrating to the new, cooler place to be.
There have been attempts to replace Twitter in the past of course. Switter and Mastodon never really caught on. Threads got users but is incredibly unfriendly to adult content. The combination of Musk wrecking Twitter and Bluesky creating a very close equivalent seems like it might actually overcome the tricky network effects of moving people between platforms. It even got the menswear guy.
One tip for new users: If you don’t like the app, then use the web interface. The app on the iPad is terrible – just a port of the phone version with a tiny viewport – but the web version works great.
If you’re creating a new account and looking for people to follow there are a ton of starter guides floating around. For example, here, here, here and here. You can also just go look at who others follow. My profile is here and as you might expect, there’s a lot of kinky people in my follow list. Also, as Miss Pearl points out, it’s a great opportunity to find new people to follow.
I’m sure it’ll have a bunch of teething issues and technical glitches given the flood of new users. It’s a small company and there will be growing pains. However, I’d rather have a vibrant and adult friendly community with the odd glitch than the right wing cesspool that Musk seems determined to create.
Here’s some sexy media content from Bluesky. Specifically, the account of Goddess Ivy Harte, as posted here.
Rapunzel
This beautiful artwork is by Cathexis. Their twitter feed has a series of fairy tale themed drawings, but this is definitely my favorite of them all. They also created the Sex Therapy comic series.
Sweet Scenes
Continuing with a theme of positive, uplifting femdom images. This sequence of sweet scenes is by the artist Brandimus. Sadly, apart from a few posts to Reddit a couple of years ago, I can’t find anything else by them. That’s a pity, as these are all very cute.
The Twitter Dilemma
Well that fucking sucked. A truly miserable election outcome. Competent women are out and chaotic lunatics in. After living in the US almost 25 years I’m now seriously wondering if it’s time to head back to the UK.
In the meantime I have a Twitter dilemma to consider. I dislike Musk almost as much as his new political friends. And browsing social media is definitely not good for my mental health. However, Twitter is the one mainline social media site that allows adult content and that sex workers can still use. I get a lot of blog content from it and there are lots of great dommes still tweeting. So by following them and staying on Twitter, am I supporting sex workers or supporting Musk?
Here’s a nice example of the quality content that can still be found on Twitter. It’s not all racists, spambots and Trump fans. This was posted here by the Lady Lux. She’s a Dutch pro-domme whose professional site can found here. I’m sure a lot of us could use a hug in bondage now.
Problematic Pegging
Two interesting pegging images here to compare. I stumbled across the second one while trying to track down the artist for the first. I liked the playfulness of the first image and I’m always a fan of showing dommes having fun. Despite that, something did feel very slightly off about it. Wasn’t sure what.
The second image looks to come from the same source, but is clearly AI. The table legs don’t make any sense, there’s a weird corner to the table and he appears to have 6 toes. So rather than an artist I guess I should have been looking for a prompt creator and a really big data center.
I often track down unidentified artwork by spotting different identified works that are from the same creator. Interesting that the same approach can be taken for AI.
Monsieur Hire
Today’s post is a deep cut, triggered by reading of the death of the French actor Michel Blanc. He had a long career as a French writer, actor and director, but wasn’t well known outside that country. I only know him from the lead role in the 1989 movie that titles this post – Monsieur Hire.
He plays a lonely, middle aged man who spies on his young attractive neighbor (Sandrine Bonnaire). She catches him in the act but, rather than be angry, she is intrigued and becomes friendly with him. Matters are complicated by her boyfriend – a violent petty criminal – and an unsolved murder in their building.
I wouldn’t say it’s a femdom movie per se. There’s no explicit domination or kink. But I think it would appeal to the femdom fan. While he is clearly infatuated with her, it’s less clear what her motivations are and how she really feels about him. The movie turns around that ambiguity.
It looks like it’s available for rent/purchase via a few different stream services (e.g. Prime and Apple TV). Worth a watch if you like independent films.
Nipplegasm
I’m not sure if Nipplegasm is a real word, but I’m willing to argue it should be. As this Guardian article explains, nipple orgasms are a thing.
One big part of my kinky journey has been learning to develop erogenous zones and in particular the nipples. Previously I treated them as pointless fleshy chest blobs. Now, after years of incorporating them into kinky play, they’re magic buttons of pleasure. I’m not sure I’ve ever had a pure nipple orgasm, but they’re certainly a big part of my play. Worth working on if you’ve not yet done so.
This drawing is by the artist Minahon. You can find their twitter here.
Red Rump
A final post on a femdom artist from years past. This is by Red Rump, a spanking specialist who regularly posted his excellent drawings to his blog between 2011 and 2015. Then he vanished from the internet and, as far as I know, never published again. One can only hope he has simply been too busy getting spanked to keep drawing.
This drawing is from a series in his last blog post. It’s a good example of both his style and the humor he brought to a lot of his drawings.
Rodzo
I think I’m due a series of posts on old school femdom artists. The kind that have been around for years and maybe not got the recognition due to them. First up is Rodzo.
Their artistic style and themes are unmistakable. You can always tell it’s a Rodzo drawing immediately. Scanned versions of their art has been online for a long time – I added it to my gallery back in 2011 – but I’ve never found any background information on the artist at all. As far as I know, there’s also been no new work produced in many years. I’d love to know the story behind the art and the artist but it seems destined to remain a mystery.
