CSP being pressed to take even just /kissing/ off their asset store and FA being told that plus sized characters are considered adult should be a giant waving red flag to folks. Sex workers have /always/ been right to say these policies never stop with 1 type of content. They always wanna ban more.

i write because i have whole-ass stories playing out in my head and the only way to be free is to put them into concrete words. and then new stories pop up from like, watching tv, and i'm like; "nooooo" cue repeat i publish bc i'd really like some money. some of us don't have retirement savings.

What to do if your books aren't selling: Change your cover art. Change your book description. Change genres. Change careers. Stop thinking about books. Change your life. Walk into the woods. There are no books to trouble anyone under the roots. It's nice down here. Don't go back.

they have assets that could help. they will not use those assets to help, because this is not their crisis. they are not stuck in the room with us. burn their shit. this is why we have guillotines.

they can just... go somewhere else. they're not tethered to the earth the way the rest of us are, because of the vast amount of financial and material assets they have. they *do not* live in our reality. they *can* deny climate change, even now, because it technically isn't happening to them

D.K. Masters 🏳️‍⚧️ (he/him) @xenolithic.bsky.social · 04/09/2026

i think the thing you have to realize is that rich people---including politicians making bank on the taxers payroll---*don't* live in a world with climate change. it's not just denial: it's a functionally different reality born from wealth. like, these people can just move. if things get dicey

his boner is not scared at all, though. and he sneaks another kiss before they separate. OA is still visibly flustered, leaking all these pheromones and emotions ALL OVER the place (kind of rude, actually) when he returns to the gym to work out his emotions. YA is staring after him like a puppy.

100

D.K. Masters 🏳️‍⚧️ (he/him) @xenolithic.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

they sadly do not sex each other up in the locker room, because somebody else enters and they're like, jumping apart. then OA squares his shoulders, glares the new guy down, and angrily takes YA's phone (already held out to him) and enters his number. YA is *very* pleased. and also a bit scared.

100

D.K. Masters 🏳️‍⚧️ (he/him) @xenolithic.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

there are pheromones and stuff, and like OA knows he looms. he can't help it. and sometimes that sets people off. so he's like, wait a moment. is he messing with me? narrowed eyes. harsh eyes. OA is very hesitant all of a sudden. YA is like, let's kiss the booboo away. and does!

100

D.K. Masters 🏳️‍⚧️ (he/him) @xenolithic.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

so he shoots his shot. "would you let me fuck your brains out?" hey, nobody said his shot was gonna be suave! OA is still blustering, but he's also like, *really wanting* to be railed and now that he's looking at this guy in that light, he's like. yeah. hot. because he's a slut actually.

100

D.K. Masters 🏳️‍⚧️ (he/him) @xenolithic.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

and OA gets so flustered and blustering. just almost like stammers, and he's a big older dude. it should not be cute. it's very cute. YA is like 'oh hello you don't seem upset about it 👀' and okay he walks into walls and thinks OA is way out of his league, but he's going to shoot his shot!

100

D.K. Masters 🏳️‍⚧️ (he/him) @xenolithic.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

then one day OA has had enough. he looms behind YA in the locker room and is all like "why are always staring at me?" YA blanks out. just full on loses touch with reality for a moment. he might have a medical problem. "i wanna fuck your brains out," is what YA eventually says. because like. duh.

D.K. Masters 🏳️‍⚧️ (he/him) @xenolithic.bsky.social · 03/09/2026

old alpha (OA) is like, why is that guy always staring? does he want to fight? he wants to fight! meanwhile, young alpha (YA) is so smitten he keeps walking into walls. it's getting embarrassing.

older bitter male alpha that's like, big and burly and very much just. wants somebody to rail him to (figurative) death. hard enough in his twenties, impossible in his forties. and he's so bitter about this. so so grumpy and lost faith. cue some kid alpha (twenty-something) in the gym. 🧵
