The slop keeps “improving”, and it makes me worry for the generations that are to come after me…will they be able to tell the difference between real and artificial? The content Is one thing, but the automation of other aspects of our lives is even more horrific. We are speeding to a dark dystopia.

Overnight Segufix I configured myself to hold me down securely. After a few hours I regretted both not giving myself any room to wiggle at all and drinking far too much water. The cycle of waking to total immobility, pissing myself, and then having no choice but to drift back to sleep was glorious.

I’m considering adding a pack with my next order. Do they function and have the same fit as the Megamax does? I usually lean away from the cute and colorful, but I am strangely attracted to the wetness indicator “badges” and am intrigued to see how they react to various stages of utilization.

Well this is a fine mess I’ve gotten myself into…I locked the belt on and can’t remember where I hid the key.

Not a friend, I guess…just a random follower. For decades I thought the last lyric referred to being “good” if you have to break-up with someone, but as I’ve aged I realized it can also mean being “good” if you have to outlive that special person. youtu.be/h5vYXt7Nruo

Then, don‘t rely on those tools! People wrote the most incredible, depraved and smutty literature long before AI existed. You do not need AI to write quality smut. I would argue that using these types of tools degrades the quality of one’s writing.

As someone who’s nips are heavily wired, one getting worked on is quite nice, but two are indescribable. Getting them properly worked on while simultaneously getting slowly edged creates an out of body sensation. Clips or clothespins are a nice substitute, but nothing beats experienced fingers.

ABDL can also stand for “Always Be Drinking Liquids”. Staying hydrated helps keep energy levels high, is good for your skin, and results in lower concentration of urine, which means less odor and skin irritation.

Hope it all went well. Every time I have had one I feel loopy and out of sorts for a few days.

I need some refurbishment on mine. What technique did you use to remove the old lining and adhesive residue, and what materials did you use to replace it? Is it something someone with almost no craft skills can do well If they take their time?

Hey, I think we competed together at IML a few years ago.

Wrestling is ridiculously intense. I tried it for about six months years ago, and the workouts and training matches kicked my ass like nothing else. Gave me a whole new appreciation for the sport. It’s a phenomenal workout if you can handle it.

There is an active group called Puddle Scouts Chicago. @puddlescouts.org They host several social events every month. I have never been to one, (too shy), but they seem to be a legit and friendly group.

As a sub, doing a personal “ultimate” dream scene on someone else, and them reciprocating, is a gateway drug to becoming a switch. Once you realize you can “teach“ each other what really gets your juices flowing via demonstration you’ll find yourself getting hard and drippy even when you are on top.

Also, that is undeniably hot, and I’m not just talking about the temperature.

You be careful friend, heat exhaustion can kick in fast and can cause reduced cognitive ability. You might become incapacitated before you realize what’s happening. Stay hydrated and use the buddy system.

Chicago Pride Fest was so expensive. The same drinks that were $9 at Sommerfest in Andersonville last weekend cost $15! The food and drink pricing was outrageous. We enjoyed two vodka lemonades inside the Cellblock for less than what one wine seltzer sold for out on the street.

Strappeddown @strappeddown.bsky.social · 19/06/2026

Lol. It’s not my thing, but I think it’s such a fun fetish to observe. Some guys get off on some sort of activity that might cause unexpected balloon popping, others just vibe on the way the balloons feel, rubbing on them and such. I love seeing people really enjoy the things they really enjoy.

Mom would buy a bushel of green beans at the farmers market and we kids would spend all afternoon removing the strings and snapping off the tips. She canned most of them, but also steamed up a pot of them with chopped bacon for dinner. They were so damn good fresh. Nothing compares.

I found this old VHS tape I purchased (ahem) a few years ago during the heyday of the Academy Training Center. I chatted with those guys back in the day and they invited me to bring my football gear down to their facility in Georgia to have some bondage fun and make a movie. I regret that I didn’t.

Kinksters, me included, were made in well-equipped play spaces. It isn‘t as simple as “If you build it they will cum”, but there is something correct in both building a space to play, and fostering a local community to play with. The solutions for an absence of local kinksters Isn’t insurmountable.

The table is over 20 years old. It was created from a wooden door, eye hooks, foam padding and vinyl, and has hosted hundreds of guys passing through the Grand Central Dungeon. If you have the space and are motivated, creating fantastic dungeon furniture from Home Depot supplies isn’t difficult.

It’s not mine, it belongs to close family friends of mine from Akron, OH. I’ve been strapped down to that table more times than I can count!

Not 24/7 but certainly more frequently than most! One great thing is how generally available and relatively inexpensive it is compared to stuff like latex and leather. Another is acceptable public exposure. Outdoor exercise and sweating in it feels good in a different way from lounging in it.

Strappeddown @strappeddown.bsky.social · 06/06/2026

My husband loves me and all the things I’m into. Feeling weird or uncomfortable around a partner shouldn‘t be a thing. The whole point is for them to see and love all the parts of you, and you them. Every kink. Every good day. Every angry outburst. Every sorrow. The whole point is to love all of it.

I have seen many do the “self bondage“ thing online for over a decade. The thing is, some of them just quietly stopped posting. It’s impossible to know what might have happened, perhaps they just moved on. It is also possible something went awry and the unspeakable happened. It’s not worth it.

Strappeddown @strappeddown.bsky.social · 30/05/2026

I love total immobilization, but there is also something to be said when there is some limited mobility, an illusion of partial freedom, just enough room to move just so you get a sense that there might be relief, so you keep testing the limits only to find no escape. This is fucking awesome.

Strappeddown @strappeddown.bsky.social · 30/05/2026

It may seem that way, but in reality it’s a bell curve, with many people in the middle. The loudest voices, like the ones who use slurs, aren’t a majority. If everyone took just a few minutes to research and vote with conscience, and not by blind party, it would be different. People don’t vote.

Strappeddown @strappeddown.bsky.social · 30/05/2026

Good BDSM group weekend parties are like that. Just friends hanging out, chatting, eating, playing games. But we also put each other in straitjackets, chastity, bondage, etc. Oh and getting each other off. Safety in numbers too, if gosh forbid a scene goes awry there are plenty to jump in to help.

Friday night locked. There is something that “clicks-on” in my head when I stare at a newly started timer, regardless of duration. A different kind of horny. The cage is hard to ignore. When I think about it, I get hard. Then it squeezes me, edging me, until I submit and forget. Then this repeats.

You may have gotten shit for this, but it’s shit like this that turned me on to football gear bondage. For me, something about the tight uniform compressing the pads on my body already evokes feelings of bondage, but being restrained such that I can’t escape or remove the gear is the ultimate.

Strappeddown @strappeddown.bsky.social · 29/05/2026

Being simultaneously locked and diapered are like chocolate and peanut butter, both are great on their own, but when combined they become this very different thing that somehow significantly amplifies both experiences in a way that is hard to describe. Add some Segufix and it’s nirvana.

A cool front came in but I still wanted all the windows open to air the stale winter out of my house. Tight neoprene is the perfect way to stay warm and get chores done. I wish wearing wetsuits casually outside of water sports was acceptable. I would love to go grocery shopping dressed in this.

Try to break that sweet and caffeine craving, or at least limit it. A lot of it is purely mental. You can associate a nice tall glass of cold water with feeling refreshed and energized. Think of how much better your muscles work when properly hydrated! The energy boost from sugar/coffee is a lie.

Back in the early 90s, shiny Lycra was everywhere. Castelli used to make these incredible metallic silver bib tights! Nearly everything had intense colors and a “wet“ shimmery look. Most modern cycling gear has gravitated to matte finishes. I miss the old days.

It has been nearly 30 months for me. It is very discouraging to continually receive those automated rejection responses. I think the issue is that bots flood the systems with hundreds of applications, the HR departments can’t investigate and respond to every single one.

Fantastic day for cycling in some of my tightest jersey and bibs shorts.

It isn’t new. It happens in every group, large or small. Who do we let in? Who do we want out? If we let anyone and everyone in, what are we? You have to appreciate IML. It occasionally challenges the community to talk about these things, and through that dialogue people’s prejudices can change.

That looks fantastic. Love the way it hangs there.

One thing led to another and I‘m still locked up, thanks to a few extensions from Sir. No release for the next 12 hours. I might end up going through to Monday afternoon after all! When the key is free tomorrow morning, I’m considering switching back to one of the Carraras and finish how I started.

You don’t need a big box. A bicycle lock will do. Just thread the leg holes of the underwear through the cable rendering them useless. Then lock up the key in a small timed safe. You could also voluntarily submit to forcing yourself to wear padding all weekend. Give yourself permission to have fun.

Strappeddown @strappeddown.bsky.social · 23/05/2026

I locked it on for 6 hours. Chores got completed. That belt is a lot of maintenance if worn continuously. I switched to the acrylic cage, and locked that up for the next 12 hours. It’s a little easier to keep it clean.

Strappeddown @strappeddown.bsky.social · 22/05/2026

Days?!?! I hadn’t thought of days. I just wanted to be able to stay focused long enough to do laundry and some chores. However, just considering this makes things feel very tight down there. The keys are in the safe, but I haven’t decided on the length or engaged the locking mechanism yet.

This chastity belt has a way of taming my carnal instincts. I’d been horny all morning, wasting time edging to porn and feeling feral. I was lubed and about to beat off, but saw it and got an urge to feel its metal grip. Minutes later I‘m cool, calm and considering storing the keys in my timed safe.

The best of the best happens when you just enjoy what is happening. Nobody is trying to get a good angle for a photo, or adjusting lighting, or saying “struggle for the camera”. The headspace and energy is better when the focus is entirely on enjoyment in the moment and not “making good content”.

Strappeddown @strappeddown.bsky.social · 18/05/2026

I was more concerned with the “on skin” part of the description. I always wrap with a layer of plastic wrap to prevent the adhesive on the tape from damaging the skin. It was my understanding that some glues could literally rip off skin in areas. It is pretty hot though. I love immobilization.

I didn’t have to wait very long. Leathers feel fantastic compressed under rope, the whole suit became part of the bondage. My heavy breathing quickly fogged up the helmet visor reducing visibility to almost nothing. Damn I want to try this again!
