Warning, she'll cum if you touch her

You should do it

The funny thing about running a small kink blog is that the longer you do it the more you realize you are engaging in an art form, and this, like all arts, leads you to have a deep respect for those who are really masters of the medium. Hornyposts made for the benefit of others are much like writing, say, a tragedy for the benefit of others. You're looking to stir up a specific emotion in your reader, and people who are able to do that really well are masters of their medium. So even though I never post on here, and there are one or two people who actually follow this blog at best, I thought I'd shout out a few people who I think are really good at this whole "being horny on Tumblr as a public spectacle" thing.

Now, my favorite and personal inspiration, unfortunately, has deactivated, but shout out to Ms. Natalie Sapphicwork, @saphiccwork, she was truly wonderful at this.

@pokeballvictimized doesn't post longform hornyposts often, but when she does, they're always a treat. Unfortunately, Tumblr staff killed the poor girl for being transfem a while back, and I don't believe a lot of her better stuff was archived, so there aren't too many still kicking around. Warning for sexualization of pokemon and CNC posts. Though she and I generally post from opposite sides of the dom-sub spectrum, I know she's brilliant at this medium from the near fanatical devotion she sometimes gets in her tags.

And, last on this list for now, @ace-trainer-alice, is absolutely lovely, and if you haven't heard of her, I would recommend looking through her posts to see if that appeals to you. Much of what she's into and posts about is the kind of thing I very much am not into, but that doesn't mean I respect her as an artist any less.

Magic Lesson 1: belief and intention

Part 1: Belief

I have a question for you. How can someone scrutinize the world scientifically and think through the world logically, while also actively practicing the magic only seen in fiction? These things should be counterproductive, or at least counterintuitive. However, when you realize that beliefs from knowledge and experiential beliefs can co-exist, I hope you will see that the opposite could not be further from the truth. 

To explain what I mean, lets explore how the average person creates knowledge. Logically, one would use the explanation that takes the least assumptions into account. To see this in action, lets use a scenario. Lets say for example you order delivery and the food is colder than you expect. Now you could assume that the delivery car went through the artic to get to you, but that would be making many assumptions (the driver would somehow make it to the artic, find a way to drive through the intense snow and ice, would think to go there to get to your house, would not stop to pet the penguins, etc.). Using deductive reasoning however, one would narrow down the assumptions as to what happened to more educated guesses (the driver left the window open, it sat in the restaurant for too long, etc.). This is how most people make conclusions. They take the beliefs they have and interrogate them with proven facts about their world. Putting it simply, belief + proven facts = knowledge. More often then not, they are correct to use this method, at least on some levels. However, what if this explanation is not enough?  

I saw no point in school as a child. I did not understand why I had to spend every day filling out papers, listening while adults talked at me, and be judged based on how well i preformed. However, it made the adults around me happy when I did do this, so I justified it to myself in the only way I knew how. I reframed school as a video game of sorts, where I was the hero making friends, fighting monsters, and saving the world again and again. This is what I will call experiential beliefs. Beliefs you choose to take on for any reason other than factual evidence. This is what happens when you believe in something because it advances your personal narrative, you just enjoy it, or any other reason. Now, I can see how someone would find these beliefs useless. After all, what use is a belief if it cannot be justified by the world around you? However, these are some of the most practical beliefs one can have, because they are the most empowering. By making your beliefs, and LARPing them into existence, as it were, you become inherently magical. You don't need evidence from objective reality to power your beliefs, because they don't come from objective reality to begin with. Most freeing of all, knowing the truth of these beliefs can keep yourself scientifically minded and skeptical, while also retaining your magic. 

Before I move on to my next point, Lets give a magical example with both frameworks. In particular, lets say a tarot card reading that you got was scarily accurate. Using the first framework, the evidence that we currently know about the world states that the accuracy was nothing more than our natural pattern seeking brains, and the archetypical nature of tarot relating to almost any situation. However, an experiential framework would state that the spirit of the cards/a deity/etc is using the cards to tell you a message. One framework is not inherently better than the other, and most important of all, they do not contradict each other. 

In terms of the experiential framework, it is also important to address any internal biases that may be influencing them. I believe that these narrative based frameworks are a work of art, and as with any art, the artist should review them for any of their personal biases leaking in. These biases are not inherently bad, as long as they are not hateful, or bigoted in nature. By realizing the truth of the experiential framework, I hope you can make your practice more inclusive and considerate of the world around you. As well, it is important that your experiential framework does not eclipse your physical safety (this is not to say it has to be "realistic", nor that you have to cater to societal standards to fit in, just  make sure that your experiential belief that you have wings does not convince you to jump off of any cliffs, etc.). 

That being said, It is one thing to know how to believe in something magically, but it is something completely different to know how to practice this magic. 

Part 2: Intention

Lets take two situations, both alike in many ways but with one very important difference. The first situation is as follows: following a power outage, someone lights a red candle with a match, in order to light the room around them.  The second situation is very similar: the red candle is still lit, but it is lit with the intention to cast a spell of protection. Both cases involve the same effort from the caster, and using proven knowledge, achieve the same result. The difference however, is simple: intention. 

Intention alone is what separates a mundane activity from a magical one. This is the key to your practice. You do not need any specific ritual, or to put in any extra effort to preform magic. All that is required is that you decide, in the moment, to make what your doing magical. Another example is this: your daydreaming can become travel to the astral realm without putting in effort to make it more immersive, or using meditation, etc. to amplify your mental world. You simply just have to decide that you are entering the astral realm, begin to daydream as normal, and Voila! You are there! As well, try not to worry that your belief isn't "strong enough", just saying the words "this is a ritual/astral travel/etc" or any variation of that is more powerful than you may think!

Overall, this is what makes magic so freeing. You can decide that anything can be a spell, and that anything you do can be magical. Wanna shoot fireballs at monsters? Just decide that your room is a battlefield, your action figures are monsters, and your hands can shoot fireballs. Wanna explore strange lands? Just daydream and decide that you are exploring the astral, or take a walk and allow yourself to believe that you are in a new world! This can be applied to any individual, in any way possible. I feel like I end all of my writings in the same way, but it could not be any more true. Go on, and create your magic. In my opinion, make-believe is the highest and greatest form of art, and is a way that anyone and everyone can be magical.

The Princess lives in a big mansion with her two favorite knights.

They always say such silly things about trying to embarrass me. It’s really funny because they know they would be executed for something as foolish as taking upskirt photos of their lady, executed by my loyal knights

#OTD in 1366 – The Statutes of Kilkenny are passed in an attempt to prevent Norman settlers becoming ‘more Irish than the Irish themselves’.

The Anglo-Irish parliament met in Kilkenny and produced a body of royal decrees that became known as the Statutes of Kilkenny. The statutes aimed to prevent English colonists living in Ireland from adopting Irish culture and mandated that the Irish conform to English customs before they could obtain certain social, legal, and religious rights. In particular, the statutes prohibited marriage…
