My most woke opinions would get my account nuked. Some softer ones: No Borders. No Prisons. No States. Abolish the Family. Popping your abuser is a liberatory act. I personally should be allowed to hit every unmasked person w/n 20ft of me w/ a paintball with no consequences as a Covid precaution.

Now that I've got a whole bunch of different flogger designs, I thought I'd do a comparison post! As anyone I've played with knows, I love to have options, and we've got a whole bunch to help you find the best tool for the job! Check the alt text for the names of each flogger

A row of four black leather floggers, lying on a work bench's cutting board. All of them have handles made of leather wrapped around a wooden core, with brass or nickel studs holding it together. From top to bottom, there is the Medium Flogger, a pretty standard, simple flogger; the Braided Flogger, a similar size to the medium but with braided falls; the Heavy Flogger, a bit bigger than the previous two with thicker leather for the falls; and the Mop Flogger, an even bigger flogger than the heavy one, with twice as many falls.

A comparison between the Medium Flogger, the smallest one from the previous image, and the Mop Flogger, the biggest one. They're both lying on the cutting board again.

A comparison between the Heavy and Mop floggers, this time by showing their falls hanging over the edge of the workbench. The mop's falls extend about 4 inches further, and are much more densely arranged.

A last comparison between the Heavy and Mop floggers, still arranged with their falls hanging over the edge of the workbench. This image shows off the difference in handle size, as the mop is significantly thicker.

I got to do a real shoot with @chastity.vale.leatherdyke.gay and the custom tote bag I made her!

Chastity is posing with her black leather tote bag. She is facing to the side in front of a gray brick wall, and the photo is cropped below her nose. She's wearing a black dress with flower prints on it and a black leather jacket, and a pink canister of pepper spray is hanging from her bag.

Another photo of Chastity, with similar framing. She is facing forward now, and you can see the brass hardware on the bag's handles, as well as the slip chain collar she's wearing.

I've designed a short one, to be used on yourself, and a longer one, for use on others, both made out of the scratchiest rope I could find, and they're SO mean. These should be up on the shop within a few days!

So a bit ago, I made a cilice, a garment worn by Christians as a form of penance through "mortification of the flesh". The discipline is another instrument sometimes used - a small whip designed for self-flagellation. Catholics continue to hold their own with the freakiest of us.

Okay I'll be posting this giant flogger for a bit. I've been getting nerdy about leatherworkers in the SM scene for a talk I'm working on with @leatherdyke.gay, and it's got me thinking about all kinds of ways to improve my own designs. The mop is one new thing to come out of that!

A heavy black leather flogger draped over Val's knee. She's outdoors in front of a brick wall, wearing blue jeans and a leather jacket.

The same framing, with Val holding the flogger and allowing the falls to hang down. From the handle to the ends of the falls, the flogger extends almost from her belt to her boots. She has a set of keys and a pepper spray canister hanging from a carabiner on her belt loop.

Similar framing, this time with Val holding the handle in one hand and the end of the falls in the other, allowing the middle of the flogger to drape across her thighs.

A close up shot of the flogger's falls, showing details of the neatly-cut black leather with a lighter gray flesh side.

Just designed a new mop flogger - basically the heavy flogger in the shop x2, and a bit longer. It feels like swinging a bat, I'm so excited to get to try it out more. I need to rework the handle design a little bit before it's ready to list, but I've got ideas.

(to be viewed like a flip book animation) POV: I'm about to knock you the fuck out 📸: @chastity-vale.leatherdyke.gay

A blurry photo of Val standing over the camera, in a leather jacket, holding a black leather flogger. The shot is focused on the sky and the barbed wire, concrete building, and bare tree branches behind Val.

A similar shot to the last, refocused on Val and specifically the flogger in her hands.

Similar framing, with Val cut out more and the focus being on the falls of the flogger mid-swing, spread out and curved almost in a wave pattern.

Finally finished the custom tote I've been working on for @chastity-vale.leatherdyke.gay! Featuring a red hanky pocket with House of Teeth patch, and some leather I picked out specifically to show off the beautiful imperfections that come with the tanning process and the animal living out its life!

A black leather bag is sitting on a slightly messy workbench. A leather handle hangs from the side, attached by brass clips to two D-rings on leather loops. Also attached to the D-rings is a brass chain, hanging shorter than the leather handle.

A closer view of the handles, with a shallow gouged scar visible in the main leather body of the bag.

A pocket sewn out of red handkerchief is riveted to the inside of the bag. A zipper is attached near the top, and a patch reads HOUSE OF TEETH, with a black and white image of an open mouth and the colors of the leather flag visible around the mouth.

The other side of the bag's interior shows a MOLLE panel hanging from leather straps. The panel is made of black plastic arranged in a grid shape, with openings in between to allow things to be hung from it in an organized way.

Well, he's said one true thing.

And Mr. Adams himself appeared on “Fox and Friends” on Friday with President Trump’s border czar, Thomas Homan, where he said that he was not “standing in the way” of deportation efforts, unlike many of his fellow Democrats. “I’m collaborating,” he said.

"I'm collaborating" is highlighted.

Last night at 9pm I had an irresistible urge to make a leather priest collar, and uhhhhh here we are I guess! It needs a little tweaking before they're ready to sell, but I had so much fun playing around with this one!

Val is dressed like a Catholic priest, with a black button down shirt complete with a leather collar designed to look like a priest's collar. Ze is holding up a Eucharist host towards the camera in one hand, and a copy of the book The Second Coming in the other hand. Ze is a white butch trans woman, wearing glasses with her red-dyed hair in a ponytail. In the background is a messy workbench for leatherwork, and a variety of zines and stickers decorate the walls and pegboard behind her.

Another closer photo of Val dressed like a priest, this time a close-up shot from below, Val holding hir head up to allow the camera to focus on the collar. The collar is made of black leather, with a rectangular portion cut out in front to reveal a strip of white leather behind the black, modeled on the style of collar Catholic priests wear.

Another shot of Val from below, this time wearing only a leather jacket and the priest collar. Ze is mirroring the pose from the first photo, but holding a bottle of poppers in hir outstretched hand and displaying a tin of Huberds Shoe Grease in the other hand. This shot is angled from below, with a mostly blank ceiling and wall behind hir.

Huberds Shoe Grease! Rub it in with your hands and let it sink in overnight, if there's any left on the surface in the morning rub it in more or wipe it off with a clean cloth. If the leather is on the delicate side, their Shoe Oil can be a little easier to apply
