float ❤️

inspired by the song from Janelle Monae's Age of Pleasure. This month I want to make work that reminds my mind and body of ease, of sensuality, of cool queer confidence, of deep pleasure. The Age of Pleasure feels like the perfect soundscape to inform that process.

29 y/o nature loving dyke looking for a friendship/penpals/connections

Hello, I’m 29 dyke with a weird relationship with gender and located in western Montana USA. I work in natural resources doing large scale restoration and spend much of time traveling, kayaking, bouldering, and caving. Love to travel with someone else in my truck around the country (don’t worry, I’ll drive), bake for, and generally share the time together, even if it’s brief. Would love to get to know you, from snailmail to the internet to coffee and talk about our interests! You can message me @ghostpyre​

30 y/o butch dyke looking for friends, penpals, and maybe more

I am a brand new gardener in central florida. I enjoy reading, especially fantasy and sci-fi. Just started getting into ren faires with some friends. And i absolutely love crafting/being creative. I would absolutely enjoy a penpal or two. Listening to other people talk about their days/lives/whatever they are passionate about is something i eat up. I am butch4butch and flirting is always fun, if something more happens i would not be upset about it! We can connect on here and figure out the best way to communicate after :). @lookingforjunipero​

Nonbinary tmasc lesbian seeking connection

Hiii! 24 y/o from Maryland!! I like drawing (mostly ocs), gardening, and entomology. I am also a novice at crocheting and fishing. On weekends and evenings I enjoy visiting art museums, going to shows (I’m into noise rock, industrial, and post-punk), watching movies, playing games, and going to local queer events. I’d love to find like-minded people to text or hang out with :) you can reach me at @autoparasitoid​ on here, IG, or discord (preferred). I’m a recent grad (env sci) starting work + audhd so I may be slow at texting but I’ll try my best

[farmerlesbian]

Sorry if I double-submitted just now, I tried to submit a personal but tumblr threw up an error so I assume it didn’t send so I rewrote it :(

💔 i didn’t receive either one :(((( try again!

i haven’t rejected any personals, so if you tried to submit one and it hasn’t been posted, it’s because i didn’t receive it. please send it again! i’m sorry tumblr is having issues with processing submissions 😩 it’s breaking my heart, i want to post all your personal ads!

if i have any issues or questions about your ad, i will reach out to you in a DM from my main blog @invisible-explosions. usually it’s just that people forget to indicate how they want interested parties to reach out to them, no biggie.

I noticed this tag on the personal ads post and i’m bummed to see someone is feeling that way

i am totally aware that tumblr and this blog’s demographics skew Western, but I know for a fact that it’s not exclusively. a couple years ago I did a survey of followers and there definitely were people from every part of the world. i also have had a tiny bit of code on my blog theme that picks up visits to the blog - now this isn't perfect, because not everyone actually goes to farmerlesbian.tumblr.com, most people probably stay on their tumblr dash, whether on a computer or a mobile app, but it does show a small sampling of where people are looking at the blog from - and it has always shown visits from across the globe.

you absolutely can and should participate! a lot of the personals so far have been from people in the west but not all, and it doesn’t have to be. by no means do you have to send in a personal ads post, but if you are wanting to, you really should think about it! the ads don't even have to be in english. these personals ads are for YOU i promise. if you want to and are comfortable sending in a personal, you should go for it. i am sure you’re not the only one thinking it isn’t for you. it is. personals are for all of us, everywhere.
