Movie Nights


One of our most favorite events of the year is upon us ! I Pink I Can benefits The American Cancer Society’s Strides campaign and is working in partnership with Linden Labs. One of the super fun events going on this year is the spooky maze sponsored by HiVid. As you journey through the maze you will find 5 family fun Halloween movies but we are not about to ruin the surprise of which ones they might be so go get lost and found ! If you are in need of a HiVid television they also have one available to purchase at the main shopping area with the proceeds going directly to Strides event. This is the perfect chance to give back and get entertained at the same time.

You can find out more about the event here : I Pink I Can Linktree


In our usual public service announcement fashion, we also wanted to mention that according to a paper published by the National Bureau of Economic Research, while a television in your bedroom may not kill your sex life, it is associated with a decrease in the amount of sex you are having.

The paper, published in 2018, examines the association between television ownership and sexual frequency using data from nearly 4 million individuals in national household surveys in 80 countries from 5 continents.

Do You Pink You Can?


I Pink I Can (IPIC for short) is a Strides event for The American Cancer Society. All proceeds go to help fund breast cancer research. While the event officially begins on October 15th, today will be a soft opening for 1 week before all the live music events for those who would like to come explore and shop without all the added traffic from the live event audience. IPIC is connected directly to The American Cancer Society sim and is family friendly and fun for all ages. With over 30 vendors, including our very own Glorious Insanity, as well as the wonderfully creative Something New, more raffles than I can think of from amazing stores and places around the grid PLUS this year we are working with Ry Heslop and his partner B to bring an interactive Halloween experience!

Walk With Me


Don’t walk in front of me… I may not follow. Don’t walk behind me… I may not lead. Walk beside me… just be my friend”. ― Albert Camus

When it comes to love, you should never see it as a race, or a competition to see who can get to some predetermined milestone first or fastest. Walk, don’t run, enjoy the journey and the scenery along the way. Stumble, brush each other off, limp for a little bit and heal each other. Keep walking. Never take a single day for granted. Say I Love You more than you think you should, but don’t forget to show it as well, or the words lose meaning, but both are still important.

The next milestone may feel like it will take forever, but forever is what you have. If it’s worth it now, it will be worth even more then because of the strength you built together getting there.

1,781 days and counting, and only 351 days to go. I love you.

Always Be My Puppy


When we talk about children, it is often said that they will always be our babies. With pets, the same is just as true. No matter how big, or how old they get, they will forever be Puppers and Kitties, and whatever other cute baby names you have for your fur babies, or scale babies, or whatever kind you prefer.

This adorable pose from Hexposed may be called Goodbye Summer, but to me it screamed leaf pile and the ever playful Shelby just had to come along to play and poor Goober just needed a good snuggle nap.

You can find the HexPosed – Goodbye Summer set ( 3 pose set ) at Liaison Collaborative from September 8th – October 10th.

Ropes and Roses


Anyone who has known Troy for any length of time, and run into him while at a live show at an adult rated Sim, or a moderate one, depending on how lenient the venue is, has likely seen comments made in local chat about the silk rope that is always in his pocket. While the comments are always made in very good nature, it is also quite true. So pay attention to those little slips of comments you see being tossed around that you may take in jest, there is often far more truth behind them than you may think.

The contrast between rope and flesh, is just one part of what makes shibari not only an erotic pleasure, but an artform all its own. The precisely placed knots, akin to accupressure, help in bringing pleasure to the pain. Ropes and Roses.

When I saw this Shibari set from Domina I knew it was exactly what I wanted to use to show off the beautiful Karin set from Second Nature Jewellery that is out this weekend for The Saturday Sale. You will find the earrings and choker both on sale this weekend, available in gold or silver. You will also find the matching necklace available in both metals as well, only these are free gifts, so be sure and pick them up while you are there.

Holy Cleavage


My dear, religion is like a penis. It’s a perfectly fine thing for one to have and take pride in, but when one takes it out and waves it in my face we have a problem.

Violet Crawley, Dowager Countess of Grantham – Downton Abbey

Religion is one of those topics, that we tend to avoid talking about, but once we do, we ramble quite a bit. We fully support each and every single person on this planet’s right to choose their own belief system, and to practice that religion, provided that it does not involve doing harm to others. As the quote above says, you are perfectly welcome to be proud of your penis, but that does not give you the right to wag it in someone else’s face.

Personally, we are not fans of organized religion, as a whole. We consider ourselves spiritual but not religious. We believe that there is a higher power, and refer to it in general, as God, and male, because it is just easier. We believe that there was a man back in the day, named Jesus, who was that age’s version of a Mother Theresa, but not so much that he was the son of God in the way that the bible likes to tell it. We also generally believe that “God” is universal, and no matter what the religion, it all comes back to the same being, who just happens to get called different things based on cultural and geographic traditions.

We believe that God gave us all free will, and that he does not take that away when we die.

Want to hang out in heaven for a while and just chill? Sure !

Want to go back to earth and wander around? Great, ghost it is !

Want to go back to earth and live another life with different challenges to better understand something you haven’t quite figured out yet? BOOM, Reincarnation it is !

I won’t continue to ramble on about it, but if you are up for a respectful conversation about religious beliefs, you can figure out how to message in world I am sure.

With all that being said, have you seen this stunning cross necklace that I am showcasing with my Holy Cleavage ? This beauty is the Martha Cross Necklace and is a new Group Gift from Second Nature Jewellery. The earrings as well are another Group Gift Holo Earrings from the 10th Anniversary set ! There is no fee to join the group, and you can pick up both at the main store as well as a wall of other gifts !

This Is Us


Anyone who has known us for any length of time, knows that we used to shoot quite a lot of adult content. We were all about the public displays of sex for a number of years, and then Troy happened.

That really sounds bad when I type it that way, but it was truly the very best thing to ever happen, to any of us. We still enjoy a very healthy and happy sex life, we just no longer feel the need to share it with the rest of you. Sorry, not sorry ! That being said, now that our lives have become what they are, you may just see more of Troy than you ever saw on display before. *Rawr*

We used to use our sexuality, as a way to bolster our confidence, and sadly, our self worth as well. Survivors of childhood trauma often times end up one one extreme or the other on the sexual spectrum. There are generally speaking two choices, slut or prude, and it is difficult to find a healthy middle ground.

We are extremely grateful, and thankful, that we have found the safe haven that we have found in our relationship with Troy. We have come a long way and are looking forward to seeing what comes in the future to come.

Something New has released this cute background and 4 single poses for the PosEvent, which is running from August 27th – September 19th. When I saw the background, I had a desire to shoot something with Troy, and so I popped over to the mainstore to find acouples pose. Something New offers so many options from cute to romantic to sexy, but instead of gravitating to the smexy steamy or smushy kissy poses, my eyes went directly to this pose instead. I laughed so much as I purchased it, because it really is US. We are derps, and we own that every day, loudly and proudly. I just knew that this pose was meant to go with this background, tho I did have to make one small adjustment. Sorry Allyson, but we are so not mustard girls, so I had to use the tint feature and change that to ketchup !

Sunny Flowers


We have written before about the correlation between items or objects and people or memories. Sunflowers for us, are a Troy association, by proxy. Troy has a special link to sunflowers, and by sharing that emotional connection with us, they have become special to us, because they are special to him.

That is how love is supposed to work isn’t it ? You share yourself with another person so deeply, and you take in that other person so completely, that you share the joy of the other, even if it is not directed at or from you personally. You smile at sunflowers, because sunflowers make your partner smile.

This Sunflower Set from Second Nature Jewellery made us smile, because we thought of Troy, and he smiled seeing us wear it because of his own connection to them. And around and around it goes !

Love is beautiful, and so are sunflowers !

Not All Toys Get Shared


Today’s post, is my debut Something New blogger post ! This wonderfully adorable pose was released for the Dubai Event which is running from August 20th – September 10th. The pose includes the cute pupper, as well as the held stiletto heel prop ( also included is a holdable trainer/sneaker for those who prefer).

So, this is where my dilemma began. You see, when I saw the vendor image for this pose, the very first thing that came to my mind was “Oh how freaking hysterical would that be if I was scolding the poor pup for gettin’ chewy with my vibrator instead of that heel? “. Now, not only is this a sponsored post, but it is my very FIRST post as a blogger on the Something New team, and so I was a bit hesitant to really let my kinky flag fly on the first day, but … well … I also thought perhaps it would be best to let them really know what kind of handful I can be at times.

And so, I took both pictures ! The original, and, the Arysta Twist !



Let this be a reminder to you, to look beyond a stores vendor photo. Just because a pose was created and sold with one prop ( or no prop ) does not mean that you can only use THAT specific prop. Also, on that same note, props are not pose specific either ! Grab your creative license and see where the road leads you. Find your inspiration wherever it comes from, and let it lead you.

Amethyst


Amethyst is a member of the quartz family of minerals. It occurs naturally in volcanic rock, yet is unique in the fact that its shades of purple or violet are never uniform – So even tho it is all classified as the same mineral, each piece, is totally different and unique unto itself.

Amethyst is also considered to be quite a powerful tool in healing. It is said to have the power to alleviate stress and headaches and improve blood circulation for better health. Anyone suffering from insomnia, may find that keeping Amethyst crystals and gemstones close to their beds as they tried to sleep.

Amethyst absorbs and emits far-infrared radiation, which means that it is genuinely believed to be physically beneficial, if not controversial, when it comes to easing pain, improving circulation and inhibiting bacterial growth.

Any desires to enhance physical healing via the use of far-infrared radiation in Amethyst gemstones should only be pursued on the grounds of medical advice – we are not medical professionals and will not be responsible for anyone getting Amethyst crystals stuck in any orifices, swallowed, snorted or any other freak kinky thing you want to try.

All of that being said, I have to say that this stunning Stone In Love Amethyst Set from Second Nature Jewellery is sure to catch the eye of anyone in the vicinity. It is a bold set, meant to draw attention, in all the best ways !
