It was so obvious that I overlooked it. My sincerest apologies.

I will extend your apologies to the House Panther and Mini-Tiger.  I'll frame it as a compliment on their stealth so they'll be forgiving.  My best to yours as well.

Spring Questionnaire

1. 3 Favorite things you like about spring?
    • - Watching the trees wake up again.
  • - More time during daylight to do fun stuff outdoors. Like camping. I love cold weather camping, but it does put a damper when literally half your hours are spent in the dark.
  • - The return of skirts, sundresses and tanks tops. To me the female body is no less...

Oh how I dream of one day owning property that backs onto national park 😍 that's awesome! I hope you get to spend plenty of time in nature 💚

@aschiron , I wasn’t scaring him with helicopters… much. 😄

The Numbers Game

24

Despite being invited a few times, I don't think I've ever gotten around to doing one of these chain letter things, but I need a little break from working on a lovely Sunday afternoon. So since my new pal @CAPSBLAZEM asked, here you go for anyone who's interested.

Tattoos, Piercings..................... None of either. I've never been interested in piercings - either for myself or...

You've read some of my other stuff, @rare .  Isn't it obvious that I'm incapable of doing anything NOT detailed?  That's the only reason there's not more from me on here.

Nice answers and not that far from me NYC is so close 🤗🤗 like reading a story of your life 💖

The Big Fight and the "Little People"

34
The last few days and the next few are a true hinge of world history. As the new nation of a proud people fights tenaciously for survival, as the world finally swings into action against a man who’s been an increasingly malevolent international force for more than 20 years, and as his last-ditch gamble seems to be faltering, I just wanted to try to articulate...

@fullfeeling Your words are extremely well-written, and in my opinion, should be read by the world, ALL countries. As an American, I feel very helpless to make a difference for the people of the Ukraine. I wish I had a way. If I could gather my thoughts with skill like yours, I would speak up & post them everywhere, and hope that they would make any difference. Even small differences, one person at a time, adds up to powerful (peaceful) action, and can change minds and change history.
fullfeeling:
Wow, @nikikat33.  Thank you.  Those are really humbling compliments.  I think that real change in the world happens the same way as divorce or going bankrupt: very slowly, then all at once.  To that end, everything we do is part of the the "very slowly" if not the "all at once".

@missy @Rambo @lemon @eirenne @lust @penny @mickey ... whoever else is on staff these days:

Check out @AnnaJune's work! Her sets first and foremost because every one is awesome, and each in a different way. The girl's got depth and breadth, and it shows in how well she can give us sophisticated seduction in Volatile, and girl-next-door goodness in Swimtastic. But also her

@vithen - unfortunately for us, this beautiful soul got out of SG and adult work altogether.  I wish her all the happiness, though!

Team Mailinya

63

So there's a contest going on again this month. As I just wrote over on OF, I don't think there's really any question that @Mailinya should get the nod. If she doesn't, SG ought to just buy one of her sets right way (which they shoulda done already anyway). In honor of October, I might suggest her first set, Selina's Day Off or her most...

Hey, this is really good. I have tremendous respect for people who agree with me so consider yourself held in high esteem. BTW, I've never liked animated gifs but I like this one very much so it's further proof that @mailinya has a wonderful aesthetic sensibility.
fullfeeling:
I am totally with you on animated GIFs.  I think this may be the only one she's posted.  As you implied; the girl's got precision.  And thanks for the compliment.

Wabi-Sabi in the Modern World

37
My new friend @sencha wrote a post that really got me thinking. I took a note or two, and then that became a whole post of its own. If you don't know what Wabi-Sabi is, go read her excellent post here, or nothing in this article will make much sense. Also, just go read her post anyway because it's great. Even if you already...

davidlopansbro:
I think you have too fully and honestly incorrectly identified the concept of wabi sabi, the heart of it is finding something that clearly is aesthetically OR THERWISE imperfect and finding perfection in it for you. This concept gives a lot of subjective wiggle room, what is subjectively perfect? Where do we find beauty? I follow @tintanankin and she follows me on here, she's a vegan and I am a hunter. @gadget and I also follow each other on here, I am a drinker and extrovert she is neither of those but incredibly creative, introspective and a roamer, yet we value and respect each others opinions. We all find a sort of understanding or beauty in the things we do and ways we live our lives. Wabi Sabi is.......well..... fucking weird and deep, more than just aesthetics.
fullfeeling:
@DAVIDLOPANSBRO, I'm sorry I'm just now seeing this!  You make an awesome and really important point that you'd see addressed in @Sencha's post if it was still here.  I should have clarified that I was addressing the aesthetic presentation of the concept.  Aesthetics are important not just so things look pretty.  It's nicer to be surrounded by beauty, but that niceness is a mixed bag, like inherited wealth or not having to work with your body.  The great value of aesthetics is as manifestations and representations of ideas that are otherwise difficult - too ephemeral or too complex - to articulate or manipulate.  Wabi-sabi is a great example of that function, as you point out if I'm reading you right.

Fall is here, which means that once again the Words of House Stark ring in our minds. To help prepare, watch a snowball fight in Paris more than 120 years ago, filmed by the aptly named film pioneer Louis Lumiere and cleaned up by today's pioneering technology.

Damn - they were brutal!

If you pine for the stuttering quaintness of the original footage, I'll save...

It just occurred to me: LAST year, SuicideGirls turned 18, and would legally be allowed to model on itself. So in the past year we've absolutely seen at least a few new Hopefuls who weren't born when the site was launched.

Am I the only one feeling crazy old right at the moment? @Missy? @Sean?

Nah, @fullfeeling ... we are of an age, but one is only as old as the women crushing on them.  I am still solidly in my late 20's/early 30's.  ;-}>

No Move Was Too Audacious

"After a few years on Wall Street it was clear to me: you could make money by gaming anyone and everything. The more clever you were, the more ingenious your ability to exploit a flaw in a law or regulation, the more lauded and celebrated you became. Nobody seemed to be getting called out."

And this is an old article; we know there's been no...

Modern Animism

While trying to write a simple "hey, brother" response to @SHEASHANNARA's entry here, I spun out into much more of a discourse on my own spirituality than I meant to. I felt that posting something so much about myself there would have been against the spirit of his own piece, so decided to move my own ramblings to my own space where...

I’m a lot too into hiring the spirit position of spiriting.. at the end chemistry too assure we are energy. Isn’t important which religion you are in we all need to respect and honor everything outside and inside of us

Break

62

I'm taking a bit of a break from SG. Don't know for how long, but I expect I'll probably be back at some point. Notwithstanding a few exceptional artists, the sets have taken on a very samey quality, with less and less of the experimentation of the past. The proliferation of silicone and makeup so thick it might as well be a different face are

@jayafterdark, they do reject some sets... not sure what the criteria is.  I was really happy to see more self-shot sets come from lockdown.  Even when the quality of photography isn't as high, it's really cool to see how a model captures herself.  Funny thing about "doing it for the paycheck"... most sets don't get bought, so most models are providing most of their material here for free!
