clarify what you mean

I just mean that if you don't feel better mentally and physically after a sexual session whether solo or with a partner, then it's not done right. By "the idea" I just meant, that should be the intention going into it always, not just to have an empty release.

yes, we still remember that embarrassing thing you said 25 years ago

If you remember pointless stuff like this, you didn't have much to think about during that period.

has the potential to push one into a headspace for a while of not thinking about or being interested in sex

That was the original idea of chastity after all. Even without a cage I think without enough stimulation it dies off even if doing denial, especially combined with being tired from work and etc.

It felt like I was touching my main sex organ

Yep, you're on the right track.

And my mood improved.

This should always be the idea!

That's so cute and really hot! 🧡

And then we wonder why more people are becoming cynical.

Communication that can’t be shut down

Uhm, it can definitely be shut down with enough funding. We're at the mercy of rich people in any case.

Whether we wanted to be or not, we’re building the resistance network.

I'm sorry, but I can't take this seriously right now. How are you resisting exactly? It's not as if you're building a whole new infrastructure from scratch, you're just rearranging the same pieces over and over again and it leads to no changes in the foundation.

Self-hosting is cool, but it's not a meaningful change in the big picture. As you saw, one manufacturer decided to do something stupid, RAM prices went up, that's it, simple as that. And you depend on that, unless you have a way to manufacture it yourself, you're at their mercy.

Self-hosting social networks doesn't fix the foundational problems with online human communication right now either. It helps a bit, but fix, definitely no.

When self-hosting becomes too expensive, what can you do? Nothing, absolutely nothing.

Now, my goal is not to discourage trying, but looking at what we're actually doing and how to actually make a change. Chasing our own tails will get us nowhere and I fear that's what powerful people are counting on. "Go play with your cute toys, leave the toy making to us!"

There are hot single bots for sure.

I don't think there's any toy that can taste like pussy right now. Maybe there is some Japanese lube which gets close to smell and taste, but the material of the toy itself will always feel off. There probably are some DIY projects to make it a bit closer, but I haven't looked into that.

That's perfection! 💖

Yeah and seem to mess with blood pressure way too much.

Hmm another mention of poppers, but they still scare me a bit. 😅
