“Neither plague, nor war, nor small-pox, nor similar diseases, have produced results so disastrous to humanity as the pernicious habit of onanism(MASTURBATION!). Such a victim literally dies by his own hand.” — Dr. John Harvey Kellogg (Yes, that Kellogg, 1888) Ahhh Moral Panic and Penile Peril and the Victorians. Bless their repressed, hypocritical little cotton socks! The 19th century were trussed up in a straitjacket of moral panic. They had a mortal fear of touching oneself and they melodramatically and 'hysterically' called it 'self abuse.; Let's talk about the true architectural marvel of Victorian sexual control: the male anti-masturbation devices!!! And my current favourite one to talk about- the anti-masturbation corset for men. This corset often far more frankly, ball-achingly awful than a boned prison for the female rib cage. These weren't about fashion; they were about averting disaster of God forbid! touching your own penis! The medical establishment was fuelled by the terrifying writings of men like Samuel Tissot. Doctors decided that the loss of 'vital essence' (semen) through masturbation would lead to everything from insanity and blindness to consumption and a decidedly unfashionable early death. The diagnosis called spermatorrhoea had overlaps with the female diagnosis "hysteria" and the cure involved a lot of metal. The Corset/Cage was for the more comprehensive fear of a wandering hand. There were the elaborate metal cages or canvas body suits with locked plates (the so-called "corsets"), a full suit of restrictive sexual armour to prevent any accidental midnight hand frolics. The Jugum Penis was a truly wretched steel clip with serrated teeth, designed to clamp down painfully at the first sign of an erection. Sweet dreams, indeed. 😳 The Stephenson Spermatic Truss was essentially a glorified pouch strapped to the leg, sometimes with a delightful spiky steel lining to guarantee aversion therapy. Because nothing says 'I love you' like a painful wake-up call. What makes this chapter in the history of sexuality so exquisitely ironic is the sheer energy and inventive sadistic genius poured into torturing the penis for the sake of 'virtue.' This isn't just prudery. I see it a testament to the powerful and deeply flawed, belief that sexual control equates to moral and physical health. The Victorians were masters of projecting their own anxieties onto the most private of acts! They created a market for these sadistic appliances that shamed men and enriched the quack doctors and charlatans selling them. They sought to 'cure' a perfectly natural human impulse with fear and excruciating pain. So, the next time someone tries to tell you the Victorians were all about damsels in distress and fainting couches, remind them that the gentlemen may have been sleeping in a spiked chastity cage for fear of accidentally fondling themselves into an early grave! A lack of orgasm was apparently far less dangerous than the possibility of pleasure.
was totally shocked to find out that my funding for the janitorial building service worker course is now full funded I kind of decided not to go into it and just be a broke artist hahaha but the universe is nudging me elsewhere hahaha it was a total shock considering I paid for the course and got it refunded lol

how could they fucken do that to the creature?? Today, something unexpected and upsetting happened. Chewy refused to fill our beloved Quincy’s prescribed medication simply because he’s a turkey. We were informed that Chewy’s policy automatically classifies turkeys as “food animals” and states that they only dispense medication to “companion” animals. When we escalated the issue and explained that Quincy is a beloved family member and part of our sanctuary, we were told that Chewy follows FDA guidelines on what species are considered “food-producing.” However, FDA regulations clearly allow a licensed veterinarian to designate an animal as a companion animal who will not enter the food chain, and even prescribe medications that would not be allowed for animals of a species typically considered “food producing.” The veterinarians we work with understand our mission and know that we do not assign worth to an animal based on someone else’s arbitrary definition of who qualifies as a “companion.” Quincy is not a food animal. He’s family. He receives the same love and care from us as the dogs that also call our sanctuary home. Chewy has a long history of compassionate service to people and their beloved animals, and we appreciate that. But this policy highlights a painful and discriminatory disconnect: dogs, cats, rabbits, and even typical “pet” birds such as parrots are welcomed as family, while animals like Quincy, Jenna, Pumpkin, Elton, Huckleberry, and others are treated as though they don’t count. We believe Chewy can and should do better, and update policies that don’t reflect actual FDA regulations or the real-world experiences of countless people and animals. We would welcome the chance to talk to Chewy leadership, and we invite them to reach out so we can discuss how to ensure companion animals of all species receive the care they need. Our animals deserve access to the medications their veterinarians prescribe - just like any other beloved family member. - Life With Pigs Farm Animal Sanctuary
i find the ramsey show to be enlightening and fun to listen how in debt people actually are but yeah like they DO not agree with concepts such as ANNUITIES /precious metals & advocate for anyone under 80K a year in income or can even comprehend a non wage earner that is not really interested in fiat and fail to mention in totality manifesting and are really partial to hawking their own schemes and books etc but yeah they are against the lottery and would not even suggest someone have one or a few $300 credit cards like they say you should just go without like wtf just because you are worth over hundreds of millions of dollars and cannot manage a $300 credit card does not mean I cant lmao
if you choose to quit smoking you can cover it up for awhile with other things like gum pouches or vaping but to really quit you will have to take the most difficult route and that is cold turkey and you will have to deal with it FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE however you dont obsess all day about it maybe get about 3-5 cravings a day and you have to use the tools you have in your own soul to overcome it the biggest one is taking a DEEP BREATH and thanking god you will never have to deal with a stroke but you will need to develop new paths and ways to cope with issues and trauma as they come up when you quit for awhile and notice how much your body misses this crack cocaine you begin to realize how so many people are hopelessly lost to these things for their ENTIRE lives never quitting or attempting to quit and finding it too hard and going back into it because they are nuclear that is why you crave them -what it took for me was volunteering with a lady that survived a stroke and she was still fucken smoking lolz like wtf

Magnus Hirschfeld's Institute for the Science of Desire in Berlin, founded in 1919, was a center for studying human relationships and gender identity. The photo, likely captured around the 1921 International Conference for Reform on Human Relationships, illustrates the relative tolerance and visibility afforded to gender-nonconforming people in the Weimar Republic. Hirschfeld, the physician who established the center, was a forerunner in recognizing and documenting the distinction between cross-dressing and a permanent trans identity, and he was a vocal advocate for the community. The Institute provided early forms of gender-affirming care, including counseling and hormonal treatments, and successfully helped secure Transvestitenscheine (special licenses) from the police to protect transgender people from persecution for their clothing. However, the Institute was violently suppressed and looted in May 1933 by students allied with the rising extremist party, who publicly burned its vast library and archives, effectively destroying decades of research and advocacy.
