Smoked cherry bourbon glazed ham. Dry rubbed with a candy bacon seasoning we found and fell in love with. Here's the recipe from insta. This can be done in the oven if you don't have access to a smoker. Just add about a teaspoon of liquid smoke to the glaze.
If you like frogs. Or possums. Or cool builds. Or happiness. This is the video for you.
Father son project bikes. Need to put together a makeshift work space since we don't have a garage and the shed is to small. I'm itching to start tearing into these bikes. But the weather hasn't been cooperating. I might do something with the shed so we have a protected work area. I do have to remove my son's engine to work on it. Not sure about my bike yet. We're working nights right now so probably won't do anything till we switch back to days in 3 weeks. My son's bike should take a weekend to rebuild. But mine. It's been sitting for over a year. She said it just stopped running one day. So she started throwing parts at it. Might pull engine out so it's s easier to diagnose. But first. I think I'll throw some good gas in it and make sure the cooling system isn't all gummed up. And try to start it. Since me bikes black on black. I'm thinking I'll call it the dementor. Although my son and I have a plan for a car build with that name. I'll get into that idea later. But I will say this. It starts with the world's darkest black and a fire spitting engine. 😈😁

Did a thing this morning. 03 Kawasaki Vulcan Classic 800. Definitely needs some work. But for less than $500. Couldn't pass it up. The girl I bought it from said just need to finish the tune up and rebuild the carburetor and should fire right up. Needs tires,front forks and all the lights replaced. And front windscreen. New hand grips and clean up the wiring. Polish the chrome and make it look pretty. Looking forward to building these bikes with my son and going for rides.
Oh yeah. "Ain't got no gas in it. " If you know. You know. Lmfao.

Our 18 yo did a thing a few weeks ago. Found himself a motorcycle for $600. Need to rebuild the engine. Got a message from the people he bought the bike from. They have the engine rebuild kit. Came with the bike when they bought it. Told them to ship it and we'll pay shipping or hold on to it till next weekend and we'll come get it. Paying for for shipping is cheaper then the several hundred dollars and who knows how much time to source the parts needed. Proud of this kid. His first job out of highschool and he's making almost 40k a year.

I've already asked JD this question but it was actually meant for you :) so... how can I be more seductive for my Daddy?
It's not that he asked me to but I want to be it for him. I've always been a tomboy and I still am, I started to explore my feminine side only with him and for him and I love it! But I don't know how to flirt, how to talk and move in a more feminine way.
I'm not talking about clothing, I'm talking more about demeanor and bearing. I don't even where to start from lol
I’m not sure that I consider myself super sexy honestly. The most I go out of my way to try to connect is to cook in the lingerie which I know not everyone can do. I think that one good way to explore your feminine side is to allow the proverbial bud to be driven. Holding hands/ linking arms while walking. Him having his hand on the small of your back when you are together. Touching and grazing erogenous zones (with consent) can help remind our Daddy’s we are there. When Daddy drives, I reach my arm over and put my thumb in his pocket closest to me. That’s something that’s little that I think goes a long way. The more domestic I get as an adult, the more into service submission I am. I’m not sure what moving in a feminine way is but I know that sometimes you just have to get close and hold that person or sit on them and hug them and even that position is a somewhat ‘sexy’ position I think anway. I’m sorry, I’m not sure this was helpful at all.
I have a question anon. Are trying to look or feel more feminine. Because there is difference. You can be feminine and wear t-shirt and jeans all the time. Getting dirty doing whatever. That doesn't mean you're not feminine. Bells not very feminine. Tomboy. But for me. She wears make-up and dresses. We recently had a conversation about this the other day. And she said that it's things I do that help make her feel feminine. Holding her hand. Guiding her with my hand on the small of her back. Telling her she's my good girl. So it may not be you. It may be your SO. Definitely a conversation you can have together over lunch. Just ask him. What can I do for you to be more feminine? What would you like? And go from there. As for flirting. LMFAO. Bells the worst. But it's cute as hell when she tries. Don't worry about moving in a feminine way. Your Daddy loves you the way you are. Just ask him what he thinks. Give him the opportunity to lead you. It's open discussion that should be fun. You both should be laughing at crazy ideas. And poking fun at the irony of the conversation. It's a seriously not serious conversation. But it will open doors for further communication about likes and dislikes. Wants and needs. Comfort and boundaries. .

Many, many times, sadly 😔
Today I had to get after another departments leadership to help a young lady with a robot issue. She's still learning and they left her alone. Unfortunately I know less than she does in this situation. Hears the guys talking shit about her not knowing what she's doing. I snapped back at them. Why don't you guys come do it then. Since you know what's what. Oh wait. Your fork lift drivers that SHE trained.
The I made call over the radio to the guy that's been training her. He got pulled to another project and she got left hanging. He came over immediately and walked he through the process. I had her write everything down and take pictures with her phone. Then we went to her office area and put it all in the computer and made a work instruction sheet. Now I have a copy and so does she. Her copy stays with the robot.
I could tell she was feeling defeated. So I did what I do. Built her up. Explained how it wasn't her fault. That her leadership failed her. And that she doing good for having zero experience in her position. And she really is. I stuck around a little while longer to make sure there weren't any more issues. Smooth sailing the rest of the day.

Hi! I have a question but if its too personal, please ignore!!!
I have been with my Dom for 4 years (we have been practicing DD and D/s for 3 years) and we are both at the point in our lives where kids is something we really want! We are a little curious/worried with how adding babies will affect our dynamic since we both don’t want to stop DD and D/s. Have you thought about how potential kids will affect your relationship?
Obviously we both know changes will have to happen but that is scary and unknown! I’m trying to not get anxious because I’m not even pregnant yet but with a major change comes worries:( Any advice?
Hi! I appreciate the consideration but this isn't too personal, no worries. :)
We've definitely thought about managing D/s after babies but of course, all we can do is daydream and guess, we won't really know what it's like until we get there. I can definitely empathize with how it seems scary and unknown.
When you compare it to other things, it really highlights how wild it is? Imagine having to decide to accept a job that you can never leave, and have to be 100% emotionally committed to for the rest of your life, without ever having worked a day in that job before. That would be nuts! But that's basically what parenting is...and it's the most important work that most people ever do with their lives, in my opinion. So, I don't know how anyone can be super duper confident that they're ready to be a parent. I think it kinda requires a big leap of faith...I feel like I have to go into it recognizing that I have only a really basic idea of what to expect..and even those basic expectations could be wrong. You never know what your baby will be like. So in my mind, it's a decision that I have to make while recognizing that we'll just find a way no matter what happens...but that's definitely scary as I'm not someone who likes risk-taking usually.
Anyway. That's kind of how I feel about the idea of planning to have a kid in general, and I guess I don't see D/s as that much different. CD and I have had some fairly significant life changes since we first started D/s. We've moved houses a couple of times, shortly after we started D/s I had a couple seizures, CD has been self-employed and has been traditionally employed, I've had some milder job changes too, I was a cancer caregiver for a few years, we had a disabled dog for about a year so we had that caregiving responsibility, both of our dogs died, my dad died, we've had mental health diagnosis' and trauma epiphanies and of course we've both just gotten older and experienced personal changes the last 7ish years, too.
So with some of those changes to our lives, our schedules or just ourselves, we've adjusted our D/s along the way. We try to look at our current needs and desires and structure our D/s around those, rather than trying to make life fit our D/s if that makes sense. This has meant that we've had phases with a longer list of rules/expectations/protocols, and other phases where we've had very few. It just depends on what we can do in the chapter we're living in, and what our needs are.
So, my guess is that we'll try to do the same with parenting. I wouldn't be surprised if we tweak our D/s during pregnancy, and again after a baby and as they get older their needs change and our schedules change. I can't really begin to guess exactly what that will look like, but I think that as long as we're able to communicate our needs and wants with each other as we go, we'll find a way. So that's what I put my faith in.
Sorry this isn't very concrete! People who have been D/s before having kids and after might have a lot better insight for you. :)
You will make adjustments to allow for kids. Or as well call them. Cock blocks. We have 4. All boys. You learn how to maintain the dynamic without involving the children. Children are not part of the dynamic. They are part of your life. There is a difference. You'll figure it out along the way. You will miss what you once had. The dynamic that once was. But the new life you're planning. Will be even more amazing. And just how you guys negotiated and communicated to build this life. You'll do it again to build the new life. You'll have to excuse me. I think one of my crotch goblins needs some assistance.
Beast
One last thing. What your children will see is two partners caring for each other in ways there friends parents don't. There will be questions. How you answer those over time is up to you. You will teach them how to lead and how to follow. Which makes for amazing leaders for tomorrow. Even should they be submissive.
Hi! I was wondering what you and CD do for aftercare? I always see so many D/s posts on Tumbler but I rarely see aftercare specific posts:(
Hi! Good question, I can see how hearing specific examples could help so I'll share mine and then invite anyone else on here to share theirs! :)
What we do for aftercare varies depending on what we did. I think everyone is different, but the ultimate goal of aftercare should be to leave both people feeling good (or at least normal/okay!) following sex or play.
So for us, what we do varies depending on what we think we need in order to feel good after what we did, basically.
Sometimes that means just cuddling each other after until we've "come back down" and are ready to go about our day/night. Often our cuddling includes talking and us both lightly touching each other like petting their hair or running our fingers down their back or similar).
Sometimes it means giving praise and/or verbal reassurance. If anything seemed to be challenging or not go as good as we had hoped, we reassure each other that it isn't a big deal or that we did well, etc. Or it can be sharing views/beliefs/feelings to contradict any concerns of anything we did or said being internalized poorly. For example, most of the time if I'm denied an orgasm I don't really need any additional aftercare. However, if we are doing denial in a way that is pushing up against my tolerance, I sometimes start to struggle with it emotionally. In the past when CD has suspected that we're bordering on that territory, he's said things like "You know I'm just denying you because it pleases me to see you handle frustration for me, right? You deserve pleasure."
If I get into really strong subspace, we move around less to give my body more time to adjust. Sometimes if I am having strong subspace and try to move around I'll feel dizzy. So we give me extra time to "come down" when it seems needed.
For longer spankings he'll rub my butt and apply lotion. We didn't used to use lotion but the last couple of years my butt skin gets sort of rough feeling if I get a good spanking but don't use lotion after.
Anytime either of us have any insecurities or other signs of 'drop' we address the concerns or insecurities with each other and provide reassurance to those specific things. We also will stay physically together for a long time if anything like that happens. To the point of, even if one of us gets ready for bed, we'll stay in the same room even if that means one of us sleeping on the couch to stay nearby, or the other person coming to bed despite staying up on their phone or computer.
A lot of people reference food/snacks/drinks as part of aftercare. We've never made any specific routines for that, but if either of us feel hungry or thirsty after then we eat or drink as we see fit. :)
I think that's mostly it for us! Again, others feel free to join in with sharing your aftercare examples for anon. :)
Some stuff that my play partners and I do is on this list, but to the point that aftercare is different for everyone, me and my boyfriend actually spend time apart right after. He likes to clean up and get dressed right away and then engage in something non sexual like smoking or watching TV. I prefer to be given time alone to recover physically and allow myself to come back to myself before getting up. Subspace makes me dizzy too sometimes, especially with standing up. Only after I've come back to myself and gotten cleaned and dressed do I get close to him again. Usually with cuddles, or if its late, he'll just plop into bed and pull me close.
After times when I've topped, there is usually more emotional aftercare too. One time I accidentally hurt him, bad enough that we considered calling a doctor for help, and I felt awful about it. Even though he was the one physically hurt, and I did clean up our space and give him time to himself to have his time, when we came back together he was the one reassuring me that he had a great time and he was okay and that I didn't mess up. Cuz accidents happen sometimes. So his aftercare was more about me adjusting our shared space and mine was verbal reassurances. The goal of any and all aftercare is always that all parties feel good, cared for, and taken care of at the end of play.
Like everyone else. Aftercare varies. Depending on the intensity of the scene. My aftercare for Bell ranges from cleaning her up and getting her food. To cleaning her up and pointing the fan at her because she's overheated. Sub drop for Bell takes a day or so. So I'm watching her closely. Listening to her words. Tone of voice. How she responds. I've found that a good pasta dinner helps curb the subdrop. And prevent it. You burn a lot of carbs in scenes. We also talk in depth about the scene. Or whatever sexual activity we had. Words of affirmation and praise. Making sure she knows how I happy and proud I am. My aftercare is different. I need to do something to keep my mind busy. I have a mechanical brain.

Absofuckinglutely! 😐😕
My grandma asked me last week if I was working a lot. I told her absolutely not. 40 hours a week. Working my minimum and thats not changing any time soon.
I recently got passed over for a promotion that I feel I more than earned. Don't get me wrong. The guy that got promoted is a great person. I like and respect him. But I've put in more time and effort. My knowledge base dwarfs his. I've been doing the job for 2 years. Without the title or the pay. Then to have it given to someone under qualified and considerably younger. The to be told that the only thing that set us apart was his detailed notes. Yeah. I'm jaded. I'm fucking pissed. Now I have to train him to do what I've been doing all along. Yes there will be more opportunities in the very near future to get promoted. And they've noticed me doing the bare minimum now. Not going out of my way to do the work. The major difference between us is he's and Electrical specialist. I'm a mechanic. He doesn't know anything about the mechanics of the machines we work on. I know almost everything. I've read every single book multiple times. I have have dozens of binders full of notes and modifications that our engineer's use to better the machines to maximize production and profit. Now I'm hyper focused on learning the electrical side of things. I'm already fairly knowledgeable of the programmes and logic. But now it's time to become an expert. Every piss off someone with ADHD? Yeah. My 5 year plan just became an ASAP plan. To make upper management as soon as possible. To become the king of leader they can't deny deserves and earns the promotions coming.

A bitch like you couldn’t handle an alpha male anyways 🤷♂️
🚨 gets no pussy alert 🚨
Alpha Male: an anonymous online bitch who can’t handle putting his name behind his own opinions. See folks I told you alpha males are just a bunch of scared pussies. I hope Santa brings you some courage little scared alpha male. I doubt it though.
Here my take on alpha's. They're immature and need attention. They don't know when to lead or how to lead properly. Tend to be abusive narcissist's. They command attention in a room by being the center of attention. Generally personable. But full of themselves. Not really liked, but a good time when in public. Until the crowd grows tired of their antics. Not the first person called when someone needs help. Girls fall for them for a little while. Until their true colors show. And then it's never their fault when things didn't work out or go the way they want. All in all. Alpha's tend be over opinionated cowards that won't own their mistakes. Abusive narcissist's with a pitty me complex.
When a dominant walks in the room. They are respected and acknowledged by all. They know who they are and what they want. Dominants tend to be quiet and organized. The guy sitting in the corner chair watching. Learning the room. Intimidating because they don't need attention. It's freely given. Not commanded. They speak with elegance and confidence. They listen to hear not respond. Learning the whole way. They earn what they have with honor and humility. Never bragging to or ridiculing those that have less. Their opinion is educated and heard. Taken to heart. Because a dominants sole purpose is to lead.by example. To set the standard and help those willing to learn. Achieve the best versions of themselves. Be it in a relationship or workplace. Their friends are fiercely loyal.
I can go on and on about the difference between and alpha and dominant. But I think you get the point. A dominant would never message anyone saying "you can't handle whatever". But instead may message something " I noticed you're posting and had some time to talk."
Something along those lines.

These two misfits always gotta be starting shit. Lol. Call them the twins because they're identical robots. And one always has to messing with the other. Like twin siblings. Wish I could get a better angle of the whole process. Still amazes me that this is my job. Most days it doesn't feel like I'm working because I absolutely love what I do. Oh. Next to this area is the electron beam welder. EB welder. That monster is a pain in everyone's ass. If a machine was an abusive sadist. The EB welder is the worst. Talk about no fucks given with an extra large side of FAFO and you can forget about even thinking about using a safe word. Lmfao. And the company. I couldn't be happier. Skilled labor got a $4 raise. And production workers got a $2 raise. Cost of living increase is what they're calling it. Winter shutdown starts Friday. Paid vacation without using any vacation days. And then 80 hours PTO on Jan 1. Thats for everyone over their 90 day mark. Everyone under 90 days gets 40 hours. This is the only company I've ever heard of doing things like this. Management can be less than desirable most of the time. But it's what you make of it.
