Chew. Harden. Lengthen. Satisfy.
Tumblr media
The tagline for Hims literal Hard Mints Chewables in an online ad that auto-played as I scrolled through a wiki article literally nauseated me & makes me fucking sick:
Chew. Harden. Lengthen. Satisfy. With confidence.
Tumblr media
Hims now makes and sells chewable hard mints for ED (erectile dysfunction) that come in “discreet” tins.
The ad for the Hims Hard Mints is absolutely sickening & dehumanizing.
I just saw an in-website ad for the Hims Hard Mints that auto played as I was scrolling.
I was actually rereading the script for the demiurge episode from Aeon Flux.
The dystopian society that Aeon Flux presented that I watched for the first time on MTV in 8th grade in 1995 has now become a distressing Orwellian reality.
Aeon Flux was deeply dark, mindfucky & deconstructive and included heavily sexual subplots where the main character, Aeon, clad in a skin-tight leather BDSM get up with an impossibly tiny & concave waist & ginormous boobs actually has sex with someone through a hole in her back.
Pretty dehumanizing & reductive portrayal of sex, right?
Just like the Hims Hard Mint ad.
Tumblr media
So, the active ingredient in Cialis & Levitra has now been put into a hard mint chewable in a “discreet” tin.
Just like everything else, absolutely no thoughts to what might be behind the ED — anxiety, stress, mind body disconnect, unprocessed emotions and/or trauma, listlessness, lethargy, numbness, emptiness inside, loneliness, aimlessness, mindlessness, constant distraction, being overworked by design in our capitalist corporatist economic system, toxins chemicals & additives in foods & beverages, depressive feelings, malaise, existentialist despair, feelings of self-doubt, abandonment, isolation, inadequacy, constant comparisons, constant competition, keeping up with the joneses, overemphasis on the mechanics of sex, reductionism where sex is reduced solely to harden fuck ejaculate, lack of esotericism, total disconnect of mind body soul heart constantly caused by capitalism which is endlessly rewarded by disordered inhabitants that are slaves to the corporatist machine, lack of philosophical inquiries, never having a thought, watching pornhub on cell phone since 10 creating toxic harmful unrealistic expectations for sex. . .
Treating men like dehumanized sex robots and machines.
Tumblr media
Chew. Harden. Lengthen. Perform. Satisfy. With Confidence.
Disgustingly sickeningly exploitative & reductive.
Reducing sex to nothing but moving body parts.
Why chewable? Why mint flavored?
Why in a tin?
Because then it seems like its not prescription medication - which it is, it has the same active ingredient as Cialis & Levitra - its just, pop an Altoid then go fuck her.
Just as mindless as everything else in our current 3 second attention span society.
Why not try to get to the root of what is causing the ED as 90%+ of physical & mental DIS-eases is literally your body mind being at dis ease and is caused by a mind body imbalance of some sort.
Why not look within instead of looking in a tin?
Why is the answer presented as a chewable Altoid?
Fun. Easy. Minty. Fresh. Discreet.
Why not reflection?
Why not meditation?
Why not examining ones own thought, minds, feelings & emotions?
Why not journalling?
Why not experimenting sexually and seeing if the ED is being caused by lack of interest in current sexual activities?
Why not explore your sexuality and sexual identity and see if boredom or malaise or lack of physical/sexual attraction may be at the root of the ED?
Why must everything be unthinking?
Simple?
Automatic?
Just pop a minty chewable chew.
In a discreet tin. Nobody has to know.
The entire ad focuses on the man satisfying the woman by chewing, hardening, lengthening, satisfying, performing with confidence.
Imagine that that is an ad actually describing a thinking feeling human being.
Its fucking terrifying.
Its nauseatingly reductive.
Its dehumanizing as fuck.
Its reducing men to literally nothing more than their anatomical reproductive organs and functions.
What of love?
What of ecstasy?
What of spark?
What of connection?
What of chemistry?
What of instantaneous chemical reactions?
What of soul connections?
What of soulmates?
What of twinflames?
What of beauty?
What of eroticism?
What of sexual soulmates?
What of sweat-filled intensity?
What of anticipation & build up?
What of longing & desire?
What of fantasy?
What of daydreams?
What of seductive allure?
What of devouring moments?
What of soul orgasms?
What of tantric sex?
What of hands free orgasms?
What of mental g-spots?
What of sexual exploration?
What of kinks & fetishes?
What of sexual preferences?
What of sexual identity & sexual expression?
What of wet dreams?
What of sexual attraction to the self?
What of turn-ons?
What of turn-offs?
What of sexual likes & dislikes?
What of trying different things sexually?
What of mixing things up?
What of roleplaying?
What of sexual imaginings?
What of erotic fiction?
What of homemade porn?
What of boudoir photography?
What of making yourself a sexual object?
What of self-fetishization?
What of lingerie?
What of voyeurism & exhibitionism?
What of sex shows?
What of public sex?
What of sexual personas?
What of sexual muses?
What of sexual adventures & misadventures?
What of orgies and one night stands and random hookups?
What of taking a break from sex?
What of temporary celibacy?
What of too much of a good thing applying to sex?
What of determining preferred frequency of sex?
What of getting to know yourself sexually?
What of societal sexual scripts that demand certain things from men & women?
What of not fitting the societally ascribed sexual scripts for the gender you were assigned at birth?
What of the intersection between your extremely individual & personal gender as everyones gender identity & expression is different & how that intertwines with societal dictates for how men & women are supposed to interact sexually?
What of sexual dogma that demands that the outcome of sex be an orgasm for all genders?
What of non-penetrative sex like oral, manual & intercrural?
What of sex being treated like a hypercapitalist machinistic end game?
What of love & loneliness?
No?
Just, Shut up. Chew. Harden. Lengthen. Perform. Satisfy. With confidence.

Exploring the Scientific and Mental Health Benefits of Sound Healing
Tumblr media
In a world where stress and anxiety seem to permeate every aspect of our lives, the search for effective and holistic approaches to wellness has never been more crucial. Amidst this quest, an ancient practice has emerged as a beacon of hope—the art of sound healing and the transformative experience of sound baths. While long revered for their profound effects on the mind, body, and spirit, these practices are now gaining recognition within the scientific community for their tangible benefits. Let's delve into the fascinating realm where science meets ancient wisdom, exploring the scientific and mental health benefits of sound healing and sound baths.
The Science Behind Sound Healing
At its core, sound healing operates on the principle that everything in the universe, including our bodies, is in a state of vibration. When these vibrations become imbalanced or disrupted, it can lead to disharmony and dis-ease. Sound healing aims to realign these vibrations, allowing for a return to a state of equilibrium and wellness.
1. Neurological Effects
Studies have shown that exposure to specific sound frequencies can stimulate the release of neurotransmitters and hormones associated with relaxation and stress reduction. For example, listening to sounds with a frequency of around 528 Hz has been found to promote the production of serotonin, the neurotransmitter responsible for feelings of happiness and well-being. Additionally, sound therapy has been shown to activate the parasympathetic nervous system, leading to a decrease in heart rate, blood pressure, and cortisol levels.
2. Brainwave Entrainment
Sound waves have the remarkable ability to influence brainwave activity, leading to states of deep relaxation and heightened awareness. Through a process known as brainwave entrainment, the brain synchronizes its electrical activity to match the frequency of external stimuli, such as the rhythmic vibrations produced during a sound bath. This synchronization can induce alpha and theta brainwave states, which are associated with creativity, intuition, and deep meditation.
3. Physiological Responses
Beyond its effects on the brain, sound healing also exerts tangible effects on the body's physiological processes. Research has demonstrated that exposure to certain frequencies can stimulate the production of nitric oxide, a molecule that plays a key role in vasodilation and cardiovascular health. Additionally, sound therapy has been shown to improve immune function, enhance cellular regeneration, and reduce inflammation, contributing to overall health and well-being.
Mental Health Benefits of Sound Baths
In addition to its profound effects on the physical body, sound healing holds immense promise as a therapeutic modality for addressing mental health concerns and promoting emotional well-being.
1. Stress Reduction
One of the most well-documented benefits of sound baths is their ability to induce states of deep relaxation and alleviate stress. The soothing vibrations of sound help to calm the nervous system, quiet the mind, and release tension held within the body. Many participants report feeling a sense of peace and tranquility after a sound bath, along with a reduction in symptoms associated with stress and anxiety.
2. Emotional Release and Healing
Sound baths offer a safe and supportive space for emotional exploration and release. The resonant frequencies produced by sound healing instruments can penetrate deep into the subconscious mind, facilitating the release of stored emotions and trauma. Participants often report experiencing cathartic emotional release during a sound bath, followed by a profound sense of relief and renewal.
3. Enhanced Mindfulness and Presence
The immersive nature of sound baths invites participants to cultivate a state of mindful awareness and presence. As they surrender to the experience and allow the sounds to wash over them, they are guided into a state of deep inner stillness and connection. This heightened state of mindfulness can lead to greater clarity, insight, and a deeper sense of connection to oneself and the world around them.
Conclusion: Harmonizing Body, Mind, and Spirit
In the symphony of life, sound healing and sound baths offer a harmonious melody—a melody that resonates deep within our being, restoring balance, promoting healing, and nurturing the soul. As science continues to unveil the profound effects of sound on our physical and mental well-being, may we embrace the transformative power of sound healing as a pathway to wholeness and vitality.
Through the union of ancient wisdom and modern science, we embark on a journey of self-discovery and transformation—a journey guided by the healing vibrations of sound.
In the pursuit of holistic wellness, let us remember the words of the poet Rumi: "The wound is the place where the light enters you."
May we embrace the healing journey with open hearts and receptive minds, knowing that within the depths of our being lies the infinite potential for healing and growth.
Join us on this journey of self-discovery and transformation, as we immerse ourselves in the healing waters of sound and emerge renewed, revitalized, and restored. Learn more and book your private session with Mindful Bliss Tribe, located in Tampa, FL.

The Body Code: Unlocking Your Body's Ability to Heal Itself
Shaina Tranquilino
January 23, 2024
Tumblr media
Our bodies are constantly exposed to various stressors that can impact our overall well-being. From physical ailments and emotional imbalances to chronic illnesses, many of us struggle with maintaining optimal health. However, what if I told you that there is a way to unlock your body's innate ability to heal itself? Enter The Body Code by Dr. Bradley Nelson – a groundbreaking system designed to help individuals identify and release the root causes of their health issues. In this blog post, we will explore how The Body Code empowers individuals to take control of their healing journey.
Understanding the Body Code: Developed by renowned holistic chiropractor Dr. Bradley Nelson, The Body Code is a comprehensive and intuitive healing modality based on the principles of energy medicine. This revolutionary system recognizes that the human body has an extraordinary capacity for self-healing when given the right tools and support.
Unlike traditional medical practices that often focus solely on symptoms, The Body Code delves deep into the underlying imbalances within our bodies. By assessing six key areas – Energies, Toxicity, Circuitry, Pathogens, Structural Imbalance, and Nutritional & Lifestyle factors – practitioners can uncover hidden sources contributing to physical or emotional distress.
Unveiling the Power of Energy Healing: Central to The Body Code is the understanding that emotions play a significant role in our overall well-being. Unresolved emotional traumas can disrupt the body's energy flow, leading to imbalances and ultimately manifesting as physical or psychological ailments.
Using muscle testing techniques or dowsing methods, practitioners identify specific trapped emotions stored within the body. These trapped emotions might have developed during stressful events such as accidents, loss, or traumatic experiences from childhood. Once identified, these emotions can be released using simple yet powerful energy techniques like magnetic therapy or intention statements.
Releasing Emotional Baggage: The Body Code recognizes the interconnectedness of our emotional, physical, and spiritual selves. By releasing trapped emotions, we can alleviate emotional burdens that may be holding us back from optimal health. This process not only promotes healing but also enhances emotional well-being, allowing individuals to experience increased joy, resilience, and overall vitality.
Addressing Physical Imbalances: In addition to emotional imbalances, The Body Code also addresses physical issues by identifying underlying causes such as nutritional deficiencies, structural misalignments, or toxin buildup. Through this holistic approach, practitioners help restore balance within the body's systems – circulatory, digestive, endocrine, immune, muscular-skeletal, and nervous system – promoting long-lasting healing effects.
Taking Control of Your Healing Journey: One of the most empowering aspects of The Body Code is its emphasis on personal responsibility for one's health. With the guidance of a skilled practitioner or through self-study resources developed by Dr. Bradley Nelson himself (such as his book "The Emotion Code"), individuals gain the tools to become active participants in their healing journey.
By learning how to identify and release energetic imbalances at home using The Body Code techniques like intention statements and magnetic therapy, individuals can accelerate their healing process while experiencing greater self-awareness and personal growth.
The Body Code offers a profound shift in how we view health and healing. By tapping into the body's innate ability to heal itself through energy medicine principles, this modality provides a comprehensive approach that addresses both physical and emotional imbalances. Whether you seek relief from chronic pain or yearn for a more vibrant life overall, The Body Code empowers you to take control of your healing journey and unlock your body's extraordinary capacity for wellness.

something happening on a mission, something personal that has soap spiralling; panic and rage making him reckless, thoughtless, and ghost has to draw the line
“you’re compromised johnny; you know what that means?”
“you’re not pulling me out,” soap immediately snarls. he turns on him and ghost barely recognises him; venomous fear turning his eyes to unyielding ice. "you're not sidelining me; i need to be in this-!"
but ghost has never been afraid of venom; spat or dripped straight from bared fangs.
he snakes out a hand grip the back of his neck, jerking him in a rough shake. "if you can't think, you can't be a soldier," he growls and he flinches like he's been struck.
his lips quiver as they twist in a sneer and he wrenches, trying to free himself of his hold.
ghost doesn't let him.
"it means you give your body to me because your head ain't fucking attached to it anymore."
soap stills, body trembling beneath his hand as he sucks in shaking breaths.
he tightens his grip, pulling him closer and digs his forehead hard into his. “it means you give yourself to me so i can have the weapon that you are and use you the way you're meant to be used."
the ice in soap's eyes fractures.
ghost’s voice drops to a whisper, spoken only to johnny, not this facade of vengeance and pain, and wills it to reach him through the glaciers.
“so i can keep you safe ‘til it’s done and i can bring you back.”
#in my head its bc graves abducts his sister and is using her as hostage to draw him out knowing ghost will always follow him#but the intensity and intimacy of saying ‘you cant trust your mind not to betray you so let me be in charge of your body until you can’#after what happened to tommy he could never deny johnny his right to save his sister#but its bc of what happened to tommy that he knows he cant let him do it alone with only his rage to guide him#hes more likely to get himself killed and ghost wont live through that#so he has to balance it#and the only way he knows how is to completely shut down soap’s mind until hes no more than instinct and muscle memory#if he cant think practically then dont let him think at all#reduce him to a place where he can only follow orders#and when its finally over and his sister is safe and graves is dead#only then will he drag johnny back up to the surface#he’ll do it even if it means dragging him kicking and screaming back to humanity#instead of letting him sink in the depths where nothing hurts. theres no fear down there. no pain. only order#and thats the risk ghost took sending johnny to that place but he only did it bc he would stop at nothing to bring him back#and help him through the after#the breakdown. the rush of panic and rage and relief and anguish johnnys been supressing on his order#it was his word that turned johnny into a ghost#and its his touch that brings him back to the man#coming out of my cage and ive been doing just fine.txt#we’re a team. ghost team#cod#soapghost#ghostsoap#ghost x soap#ghoap#simon ghost riley#ghost cod#john soap mactavish#soap cod#save post

Something is missing, but you don’t know what.
[Image Description:
Digital illustration featuring Taako and Lup from The Adventure Zone. On the right side are Taako and Lup during the Stolen Century, with their red cloaks. The edge of the picture is taken over by a glitch effect, almost erasing Lup, only leaving behind parts of her cloak and hair. There is also a small glitch on Taako’s chest, where the IPRE patch would be. This part of the picture is also somewhat desaturated.
Stolen Century Lup is depicted with her hair in a messy bun, her dark brown hair dyed with light-pink highlights. Stolen Century Taako is depicted with his long hair in a braid, his dark brown hair dyed with lavender-purple.
The left-side of the image is post-Voidfish Taako, who is fidgeting with his hair with a look of sadness on his face. He is clutching onto the Umbrastaff at his hip.
Post-Voidfish Taako is depicted with messy shoulder-length hair, his naturally dark-brown hair is streaked with some lavender-purple and light-pink. He is wearing a deep-purple cloak and hat, which is themed with stars on the inside.
End Description.]

More possessed doll au!
Each time a bat is ready to take on a new form, they must pay a visit to the tea party. Should they be accepted, through whatever strange reasons the dolls use, they will find another figure seated at the table, dressed in full tea party doll regalia. It is up to them to modify the doll within the limits imposed, and learn its form to achieve its full potential. The Robin doll, so far, is the only one to return to the table despite being moved to a display case, and truly makes the mysterious sidekick timeless.
Despite its obviously supernatural origins, the bats have found very, very little can effect the dolls outside of physical force. They do not use wires and electricity to move or think - they cannot be hacked. They are not, to their knowledge, superseding other minds - they cannot be exorcised. They use no magics to fight crime - they cannot be traced. They have no blood to be identified, no teeth pattern to compare, no fingerprints or retina to give them away. Gas cannot affect them, hypnosis requires a brain, pain cannot override them. For all intents and purposes, the dolls are perfect for fighting crime.
So where, Bruce thinks, lying awake in bed one night after patrol, do they come from? Alfred knows nothing, neither of them found anything in the archives or library. His father grew up on the estate - surely he'd explored the caves himself at some point? The doll had been right at the well entrance - had he simply never entered that way?
After the first time meeting their doll, they do not need to touch it to transfer their consciousness again. It's a breeze through an open window, ever so slight, in the back of their minds, and one simple twist can send them spiralling into their other body.
But when Robin became Nightwing, and the child sized body was retired, it was placed in a sturdy glass display case. Jason was already making noises about joining them on the streets, but a transition had never been attempted. They assumed a third doll would become the new Robin, and the first would simply become inert.
That was not the case.
When Jason - against Bruce's decision to wait a few more months - decided to make the walk to the doll house, and deeper still to the tea party cave, he found, waiting, an untouched child sized doll. The light from his torch cast across its Victorian style waistcoat, the plumped breeches and buckled leather booties, all in the bright and bold colours of his predecessor. It sat at the right hand of the empty throne, porcelain tea cup in hand, as though left by a rich little girl called away just a moment ago to supper.
The doll had been sorted in a locked case. Glass. In full view of the main area of the batcave. With cameras. It should not have been able to be taken away without several people noticing. He had taken a different route to try and sneak past Bruce, but...
It was not the first time a doll had moved. It would not be the last.

can i requeeeessstt edgar rescuing scriabin from something |D
Tumblr media
Day 6 - There are consequences out here
Bonus, of what he was doing to get stickers in his hair:
Tumblr media
#My art#Requestober#Vargas#Scriabin#Edgar#I really wasn't sure what to do with this one at first! Or rather - I immediately had this and another idea but wasn't satisfied either way#I opted for this one because The Feelings and the bonus - additions oddly energizing!#I think it's that at first I was too strongly reminded of the one I made of Edgar cutting Scriabin's hair#Poses too similar! Feelings too similar! Not new or shiny or sparkly or anything!!!#But then the bonus came to mind and cute Scriabin is always nice <3#And then the pose expanded as well! Different! New challenges!#I've been trying to attempt more fullbodies this year :3 I don't make them that often! It's good practice all round!#Anatomy and consistency and more dynamic posing!!!! All good things :D#And also parts that I'm not as used to drawing - their feetsies turned out nice I think! Ah! Feels like a level up love when that happens#And then the Feelings of it all <3#I love Scriabin impulsively enjoying his body So Badly gah#Being extant in private and getting to fully revel in sensation with no filter no interruptions#Consequences now - new fallouts of his own actions - but the immediacy just Feels so much he can't help it#Edgar chides him of course - he's (had to) grown out of such childish impulses! Aren't you an adult!#Really he just worries neither of them would do well with either gone for long stickers least of all haha#And he likes being useful <3 They're so similar haha Scriabin loves to complain and Edgar loves to fret ♥#They balance each other well for what a handful they are#Scriabin especially of course hehe

#codacheetah#my art#pokemon#pkmn#vulpix#fennekin#ok so#idk preface i'm not a modern pokemon design hater this is not hater art#but i do think. the style shift progression of pokemon has been fascinating to watch.#a lot of early pokemon particularly the first mmmmm two generations were relatively sensible proportionally#a lot of pokemon that feel like animals but to the left.#and as time has worn on pokemon i think have kind of shifted away from 'balanced' design towards 'cartoon' design#like fennekin. ridiculously huge head with big huge eyes and dramatic fur tufts and tiny little neck and body#compare to vulpix which is also a ridiculous chibi animal mind you. but its proportions are more grounded in reality#head that's only Mildly too big for its body and smaller eyes and visible paws (vs. fennekin's stumps)#i've always felt like fennekin and vulpix is like the kind of microcosm of pokemon designs shifting to be sleeker and more exagerrated#where it's so apparent since they have the same basic design idea#hell you can kind of see it with alolan vulpix. slimmer neck smaller body bigger eyes#this post is kind of meaningless i've just been thinking abt it lately#pokemon no longer has a consistent artstyle. there are many galarian and paldean pokemon that i dont think ever would have made it in rby#and many early gen pokemon look visibly different to the new because they are more simplistic and understated#this is not a bad thing it is just a Thing. it's the natural growth of a franchise where they have to reach further with ideas and designs#with each generation. because there's 1000 of these fuckers. we are long past Basic Fox and Basic Bird and Basic Bug#every pokemon has to be uniquely charismatic and recognizable when they have so much competition#anyways all this to say i think vulpix and fennekin look ridiculous standing next to each other but in a vacuum? both designs are nice
