As we all know, the Spotify model has been disastrous for artists. Fetish clips are one of the few remaining spaces where people are willing to pay per clip for specific, premium content. If too many people use this system, the entire fetish clip economy is at risk
So, C4S+ is launching soon and this is what you need to know about it and why you shouldn’t use it as a customer or clip maker 🧵
“CONAN HOLDS YOUR PRIVACY SACRED Our encampment processes personal data, wielding the power as cautiously as Conan wields his sword. Should you wish to cover your footsteps and forbid us from sharing your secrets, strike at the 'I wish to cloak my presence' rune. I WISH TO CLOAK MY PRESENCE”
Completely tossed at the official conan the barbarian website’s cookie notification window.
Relatedly, if you do any audio editing for videos or podcasts, watch reality competition shows and listen for the splice cuts and ADR. They're *brutal*, and a great reminder that most people don't notice or care.
Okay, now I feel bad for making Exceptional Acquisitions Squad about ninja wizard librarians, and not about ninja wizard librarians with big naturals.
Guess I'll have to put that in 2e.
The Why Wizard asks “Why does Gandalf get huge naturals but not me?”
I feel it is important in these trying times to post this IMPORTANT WIZARD from my IMPORTANT WIZARDS album.
West Oz Leather: West Connect by Hien Pham, published on ohjoysextoy.com/west-oz-leather-hien-pham on April 21, 2026 Hien Pham draws in a lushly rendered style that alternates between realistic illustrations and simplified cartoons in textured pencil lines. He uses the full spectrum of colors. Hien is a bespectacled, dark-skinned, heavyset man with thinning hair pulled into a bun and a bushy beard. He wears a maroon floral collared shirt and khaki shorts. Narration: West Oz Leather is a kinky queer club in Perth that I've been a part of for almost a year now. As Hien climbs up a set of stairs to a landing with BDSM flags and queer event posters on the wall, a man in leather gear pops out of the doorway on the landing. "Hello!" Says the man, waving a black-gloved hand. He has short, wavy brown hair, glasses, and a closely-cropped beard and mustache. "Hellooo~" Replies Hien. "We're not ready yet!" Continues the man while checking Hien in by bumping their phones together. "You're early!" "Wah! Only by a couple minutes..." Protests Hien with some slight embarrassment. "Soft drinks or alcohol for you today?" Asks the man, while offering two tickets in his other hand. "I think we both know I'm a softie." Hien replies, accepting his entrance ticket and a 50% off coupon for a sauna later that day. "You are." The man concurs.
Narration: Their social event West Connect has become something I look forward to every single month! From across the spacious room, a shirtless man in black leather pants dances towards Hien with tall black boots in each of this hands. "Hiiieeeen..." He calls plaintively. "Can you help me put on my boots?" "I can, but where's your boyfriend?" Asks Hien. "He fell and hurt his back..." Comes the reply.
The page breaks into a blueprint of the event space, with windows into how each of the different sections are being used by the occupants. In the Change Area, Hien holds steady the big black boot of his shirtless friend, while that guy steps his foot into it. "Then I just lift it up?" Asks Hien with determination. "That's it, good boy." The man confirms. "Excuse me!!!" Yelps Hien, as the man's foot suddenly pushes all the way into the boot. In the Coat Check, a big man (wearing only a brown leather harness over his bare chest and blue shorts with tennis shoes) hands over his backpack to the clerk, who wears a black leather pup hood, sleeveless shirt, pants, and boots. Narration: The vibe is casual and easy-going with kinky sights everywhere you look! Read the rest on Oh Joy Sex Toy .com

Seure's book and myself are in here with a lot of other great authors if you're looking for SFF books!
they are calling it the perfect summary of the "keep men out of women's sports" movement
Phoeo of a cute cat behind a super market toy set looking at the camera, with the silly caption of "Khajiit has wares if you have coin" which is a known The Elder Scrolls line.

I just typoed “Five Nights at Freddy’s” as “Fife Nights at Freddy’s” and lemme tell you that’d be a very different game in a very different restaurant.
REAPER DEATH SEAL
Yeah, I think it was Mahmood or someone like that, I saw the exact same thing: like, that's from Blake's 7 or 70s Dr Who or Buck Rogers! That's the Evil space-fash costume language they ALL used to say "these are the baddies"!
Genuinely thought it was a screenshot from one of those, until I saw the headline and then recognised the evil supervillain at the controls.
(Didn't help that I saw your added caption version first...)
What with our (UK) politicians dressing as 70s/80s scifi space opera futuro-Nazis as well... 😬
Tell me with a straight face this image isn't a flashback for young Gen X and Millennials to the 90s and 00s to sentai shows and Blockbuster bargain bin z-grade sci-fi flicks. You could have told me this was a screencap from one of them and I would never have questioned you.
tell me i'm wrong
Love economics as a field of study, hate it as a field. Example, should be headline news + all over econ feeds:
Last few quarters are unhinged volatility. Business deaths overall are per capita worse than Great Recession. Very high startup rate to break even, but Main Street is imploding.
Man it sucks that images aren’t displaying if only there were some helpful tool where you could describe the photo with a few words. Like. An alternative text or something.
Headline: World’s biggest condom maker set to raise prices due to Iran war
oh great now where am I supposed to get my world’s biggest condoms
