It is going to cost me $6,000-$12,000 to fight CBSA as they criminalize me, a sex worker, for "smuggling obscenity" in the form of 60+ works of popular fiction by authors like William Gibson, Anne Rice, JG Ballard and Murakami

Please help me survive this!

This reads like hyperbole but I promise you it's not. It's a ludicrous amount of cruelty-based overreach on the part of CSBA and stands to set a very dangerous precedent around what counts as Obscene.

Reminder: there are a *very* limited number of copies of this 280 page compilation of cartoons from 2020-2025, and an even more limited number of special signed edition copies. Since this was a DIY Kickstarter effort there's not going to be a second printing! www.tomtomorrowstore.com

Goodnight.
‘Mostly it is a pale
face hovering in the afterdraught
of the spirit, making both ends meet
on a scream. It is the breath
of the churchyard, the forming
of white frost in a believer,
when he would pray; it is soft
feathers camouflaging a machine.’ ~ R S Thomas, Barn Owl.

Before they were arrested- Vets are demanding an end to the war on Iran at the Cannon Building in Washington, D.C.
I AM THE MAIN CHARACTER
You must know how the thing you are doing, the thing I don't have to pay to view, the thing that you can do and I can't doesn't completely and totally satisfy me!!
Clear your schedule so I can tell you how you've disappointed me and let me down!
FOREVER "TOO SUGGESTIVE" 😑😑
There are “doers” & there are those who either are too scared to try, or simply prefer to fantasize about things instead of doing them.
As an educator, I love helping the scared ones find the bravery to go do things.
In my personal life, though, I prefer the company of fellow doers. Full stop.
Had a question you've always wanted to ask me?
Want to hang out for a little bit?
Hear all sorts of spicy stories and behind the scenes shenanigans?
I got you! Join me May 2 2026 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM EDT for my very first AMA! It's gonna be very not boring 😉

As promised, here's a quick portfolio post for all the new people. I do satellite laser ranging for a living now, but have spent years as a photographer, mostly birds, space, underwater, and other stuff as it presents. Here are 4 of my best. :) 🐙🦉📷🌿🧪🔭 Prints and stuff at www.myhawaiianimages.com
Spring is a lie
In which I have given myself the challenge of writing about nature 52 times in a row...
And finding out I will have to find a new way to describe snow for 5 months straight.
I was promised an explosion

Ty! 🙏
I only started doing nature photography around 2 months ago, as I have started a new year long nature photography project.
I've been really enjoying it.
I can't wait to see where I'm at at the end of the year. I love learning so much 😄

That boundary between fantasy and reality is an important one in our kink world; it's essential for keeping things ethical. Don't let your role swallow you whole.
I feel like I'm actually losing my mind. They're just getting on TV and saying "why aren't we knocking up the 15 year olds anymore" and that's just a thing they're saying. in public. on TV.
