The Garden of Hedon

Polyamory, is usually not depicted in the media very favorably.... ....but I have discovered a new web based series drama showing on Youtube called "Compersion" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9rsCdxctICE So far we have Season 1 out, with 13 episodes. I heard about the show from one of my favorite podcasts " Polyamory Weekly " and got quickly hooked into it. The story follows a couple who explore polyamory, but not how it is usually portrayed from a white, upper-middle class, patriarchal perspective. This show has an all black cast, the wife is the one who brings it up and wants to try it, and the couple make all the usual mistakes that couples make when entering into polyamory without doing the research about it. The production values are good, with good actors, sound and lighting. This was not done by amateurs with a shaky hand camcorder. Check it out, let me know what you think.   

I got some, I like em. A lot of people nowadays have tattoos. I got my first one 30something years ago, added a few more over the years, but getting covered with large swaths of ink was not my thing. For myself and my body, just a few as accents.  As time went by, tattoos became more popular in society and more accepted for women to get tattoos.  When I was young and got mine there was no sexual connotation in my thinking. Tattoos were not erotic to me. But as I started to see more women with tattoos, my perspective started to change. What follows is my thoughts and feelings on tattoos on women. Tattoos on men will be the subject of another post in the future.  Tramp Stamps A tattoo across the lower back, usually centered right in the middle. I generally like these and have thought about getting one myself. Of course, on some women these can look bad, trashy, unflattering....I guess it depends on the body and design as to what turns me on, but this one looks good to me.

Now the US presidential elections are are past and my worst fears have come to pass....the president is going to be an obnoxious right-wing con man and the Republicans have more power than they did before. I'm disgusted with my country on so many levels, but mainly for falling for this obvious huckster and the cabal of regressive idiots, parasites, and theologogues (I just made that word up) that account for the Republican party. It's not that I liked Hillary Clinton and wanted her as president, but I never believed the lies about her that the vast right wing conspiracy always told about her. I didn't agree with a lot of her policy decisions, but I never hated her for Benghazi, emails, being a supposed liberal, etc.  I like the idea of a woman president and after all the experiences of her career I think that she is eminently qualified for the office. Even if it was true that she is a secret lesbian than I would like it even more if she was elected then came out. So at
