Flirt because you can!
🕑 Added 2025-08-31 01:28:41 +0000 UTCFlirting is like unleashing a fountain of goodwill you have within you, that keeps getting replenished as you give it away. Yes, in a way you flirt for yourself. Flirting is 'attention' without 'intention.' It is not manipulative or coercive, it is a gift. How it is received is not up to you, rather the other person. You offer a genuine ‘noticing’ of something beautiful about that person, and you simply decide to say it instead of keep it to yourself. Maybe the person just had a friend get sick, or lost a pet, and failed an exam... so spread some light! Flirt with the neighbor's dog, the butcher, the person standing next to you in line. Flirt because you can! And it will come back to you 10 fold. I promise.
A former lover just sent me this photo celebrating our campout of 20 years ago. It made my day! We still, on birthdays or a special "rememberances," email or call each other. Keep your doors open. Own your own stuff, so you can appreciate how your past relationships have helped you grow. Love is addition and multiplication, not subtraction and division. Gee, wish only my hair has changed, ha!
I'm here hiking in the Pacific Northwest, Port Townsend, Washington, where I just tango danced with a lover of 6 years ago (keeping doors open!) Enjoy the last sunflowers of the summer. My birthday is next month and I plan on teaching you a class on self- pleasuring, that's masturbation in old talk. Love to you , my special Patreons, and believers in senior sensualism. It's the best, so full on honesty and appreciation.
Sex work is WORK. Decriminalize it. Many bills were introduced this legislative season!
It’s NOT sex trafficking, so stop conflating the terms. Sex workers need the same rights and protections as other jobs, the right to be seen and collaborate. Sex work makes communities healthier, safer and peaceful. When the law treats sex workers as criminals, it opens the door to abuse, corruption, and violence within police departments. Decriminalizing sex work is a necessary step toward protecting vulnerable individuals, reducing police misconduct, and ensuring that law enforcement operates with integrity and accountability.
The data from New Zealand and Australia proves that decriminalization makes communities safer and exploitation harder—not easier. Amnesty International, WHO, and UNAIDS all support decriminalization as the best way to reduce exploitation and protect health and rights.
Mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani has co-signed multiple pieces of legislation as a Queens Assemblyman that would decriminalize consensual adult s*x work.
