You first heard about me from some of your kinky friends. They said you should talk to me, but were pretty evasive on any further details.
You looked me up on Fetlife. You noticed we live in the same area and we have a bunch of mutuals, but strangely you've never seen me at any munches. You reached out to me.
We started with some casual conversations about fetishes and ethical frameworks. But pretty soon I asked if you'd be interested in doing a scene with me, and we got into the nitty gritty of discussing limits. You're pretty kinky, aren't you? You're ok with group play with strangers, as long as they've all recently been tested. You're ok with being filmed. You're ok with psychological scenes. Pain play, abandonment play, free use, a real kinky slut.
Before you know it, you're stepping out into the state forest, the Uber driving away down the access trail. You're wearing a light sundress, but the weather is mild and the breeze feels pleasant against your skin. You look at your phone and pull up the photo I sent you, showing you the exact meeting place. You look around, and walk a short distance.
A few minutes later, your phone rings. You answer, and it's me.
"Hey, I just wanted to go through some last minute checks. You are <your name>, right? Ok excellent. And you're the person I've been talking to on Fetlife? You understand what we've got planned? Are you still up for it? You know you can... ok ok great. Alright, and can you just repeat for me what your safe words are, both verbal and non-verbal? Awesome.
Alright I'm really sorry but I'm running a little late, I'll be there in 30 minutes. Sorry about that. Anyway, after this call ends I'll be in character. Anything more you want to say? No? Alright, see you soon."
Now that you're standing still, the air feels like it's taken on a slight chill. Not enough for you to be uncomfortable, but enough that you're aware of it. (And so are your nipples.) You start to drink in the sounds of the forest, and in doing so you begin to feel small. Humans are used to considering themselves above nature, but now that you're outside of the sterile, safe urban environment and without a vehicle, you realise how large the forest is and how small you are within it.
You hear a stick snap behind you, and spin around. You can't see any signs of movement, nothing out of place. There have always been rumours about kidnappers lurking in this forest, but you calm your fears. They're just scary stories for kids, your fear isn't rational. The stick must've been broken by an animal, you guess. You're unfamiliar with the environment and how sounds carry, so you can't even estimate how far away the sound was. Maybe it was off in the far distance.
You turn back towards the road, and jump. On the other side of the road there's a ghillie-suited, masked person walking carefully towards you. The adrenaline hits and your brain kicks into overdrive. You've only been waiting 5 minutes, and I said I'd be there in 30. This person has clearly been here for a while, as you haven't heard any vehicles since your Uber left. Who are they?
Running away along the road would be the easiest thing to do, but you've never been a good runner. You're certain this person would catch you. But you've got some agility, so perhaps if you duck and weave enough you'll be able to lose them in the bush. You spin on one foot, deliberately overbalancing as you do so. Then you kick off, using your displaced centre of gravity to quickly lunge into a sprint.
You can hear the footsteps pursuing you. They aren't gaining on you, but you aren't losing them either. Fear provides you more energy, and you force yourself to run faster. To run more frantically, more carelessly. Your sundress snags on branches and brush, but it's made of a light material and parts of it rip off without slowing you down. There's a crest ahead, and you figure if you can make it over that you can probably sprint, slide, and skid down the other side at a good pace. You're probably more desperate to get away than your pursuer is to catch you, so hopefully they won't be so willing to risk injury and you can lose them.
But then ahead, you see three more camouflaged individuals rise from seemingly nowhere. You make a swift course correction to the left, but a fifth figure appears there too. And now they've got you surrounded. They close in. There are 5 of them and one of you. Not only that, but you're weak. Probably any one of them could've overpowered you without breaking a sweat. Against all 5 you have no chance.
Roughly holding each of your limbs, they carry you over the crest and down the other side. They carry you further and further into the bush.
Your phone rings. One of your captors grabs it. They answer it, deftly muting the microphone and putting it on loudspeaker.
It's me. "Hey uhhh, we're at the rendesvous point and we can't find you. Did you get cold feet? Or were you wasting our time from the start? Was this your idea of a prank?" The captor hangs up the call.
You'd been clinging to the hope that one of these captors was secretly me, that the whole thing had been an elaborate mind game. That seems unlikely now. But part of you still wonders... You could find out easily at any time, you could use your safe word. But... do you really want this to stop? You have to admit to yourself that you enjoyed the thrill of the chase, enjoyed the despair of being captured, and are still enjoying the feeling of powerlessness and lack-of-control. You're even enjoying the uncertainty: is this consensual non-consent, or is it just straight up non-consent? Are you in danger? It thrills you.
Your captors come to a clearing. There's a pile of sharpened branches and a mallet next to them. One of them grabs a branch that's sharpened on both ends, and using only his hands shoves it upright into the dirt. Only about 30cm of it protrude from the earth. The remaining four captors forcibly bend you over the spike. They each pin one of your limbs, holding you face-down ass-up. You engage your core muscles to avoid the spiked stick.
In the edge of your vision, you see a sixth masked figure emerge from the bushes. The two assailants not pinning your limbs grab more stakes, and using the mallet they drive them into the dirt diagonally around your neck, wrists, and ankles.
The people pinning your limbs retreat, and you find that you are firmly held in place by these triangles of wood.
Your captors toy with you. They use long grass to tickle you. They pour water over your head and force your face into the mud. They cane your exposed ass with a thin stick. Then with a thick one. They pinch, pull, suck, and bite on all of your protrusions. They tease, finger, and fuck all of your intrusions.
You can't help but feel pleasure from what they're doing, but they never do the same thing for long enough for that pleasure to build into an orgasm. You are kept frustrated, unable to anticipate their fickle touches and abuses. It's obvious they don't care about your pleasure, they just like provoking your reactions.
One roughly turns your head to the side, pins it down, and facefucks you. It's an awkward and uncomfortable angle, but they don't care. The others keep beating you, rubbing you, penetrating you, prodding, twisting, stretching, stroking.
You can't gather your thoughts. Are you overstimulated or understimulated? You're desperate and it shows. You're rocking back and forth, trying to hump the air. They One end has been whittled into a rounded shape, and it looks like it's been sanded too. It's wide, much wider than the other branches. It scares you a little bit, but you understand the message you're being given.
You beg. Not verbally, the sounds you're making could not be considered speech. But your moans and whimpers and eyes do the begging for you. In their manerisms, you can tell the person holding the improvised dildo wants and expects more from you. You give up more of your dignity. Tears run down your face, and your whimpers turn to sobs. Your eyes are hungry. You have never needed something this much before in your life. You aren't even human any more, you're a creature with a single evolutionary purpose, a brain that can only hold one thought. Your entire reason for being is that dildo.
You feel the dildo pushing against your starving hole. It's so big. You shy away from it. It's pushed with some pressure, but it's not going in. You want your captor to push harder, but they keep holding it firmly in place. They expect you to do this yourself, to show that your need outweighs the pain. You push against it as hard as you can, straining against your restraints. It slides in and you gasp.
You lie there panting, breathless. It's in. But it's still. You start rocking back and forth, rhythmically tilting your hips and grinding. Your breathing gets even faster. Your movements are becoming less controlled. Each time you rock too far forward or backward, you feel the sharp stick against your belly. You don't care. Faster and faster, more and more. You're finally going to be able to cum. You're so close. You hope you're providing enough amusement to your captors for them to let you finish. The thought of that dildo, your lifeline, being taken away gives you a renewed desperation and you fuck it even more frantically.
Your circular thoughts, your mantra, your desire, your purpose, it speeds up in your head until it blurs together into a single incoherent thought. It grows in brightness, your head a pure white glow of incomprehensible pleasure and needfulness.
When you regain your senses, you are still bound. You have slumped in your restraints, and you're gradually becoming more and more aware of the pain of the point pressed against your stomach.
One of your captors squats down beside your head. I remove my mask and ask you "how was that, sweetie? did you have fun?"
Later, you find yourself in a campervan, chilling with 6 people you've never met before. We've helped get you all cleaned up, we've given you fresh comfy clothes. You're sitting on a thin mattress, but it's the softest thing you've ever felt in your life. I've got a laptop, and I'm pulling in footage from all the GoPro SD cards. Some were mounted to our chests, and others were placed around the bush and clearings like trail cams.
On the screen, you can see me lying in the bushes with binoculars, watching the rendesvous point. You see yourself arrive, you see yourself answer the phone. I've got the recorded audio from the phone call, you can see your lips mouthing the words. Once I've confirmed that we're looking at the right person and re-confirmed your consent, you can hear me radio the others to commence the operation.
You see me desperately chasing you. But to your surprise, when the others pop up from the crest, I hide behind a tree. One of my friends pops up and takes my place. I spend a few minutes catching my breath, and then start walking over to join you and the others in the clearing. I guess this is ruining the magic a little.
We have a two hour drive back to the city. You spend this time curled up in my arms, helping me to edit the movie.

astro notes: mars, jupiter, & saturn meet
As we step into Wednesday 8/14, the cosmic energies are intensifying with Mars conjoining Jupiter in the sign of Gemini at 16 degrees. This conjunction is forming a powerful square with Saturn in Pisces, which is currently at 17 degrees. As the week progresses, these aspects will significantly shape the astrological landscape, leading to dynamic and potentially transformative events.
Key Aspects and Developments:
Mars Conjunct Jupiter in Gemini: Mars, representing speed and action, joins forces with expansive Jupiter. This alignment suggests an increase in momentum, particularly in areas governed by Gemini—communication, information, and mental agility. Expect a rapid pace in these domains, which could lead to potential misunderstandings or conflicts, especially with Mercury in retrograde.
Mars and Jupiter Square Saturn: The square aspect to Saturn introduces a sense of challenge or restriction. This is where the energy shifts from pure momentum to a more focused, determined effort. Saturn’s influence demands discipline, structure, and a cautious approach to the enthusiasm and ambition fueled by Mars and Jupiter.
Formation of a T-Square: As the weekend approaches, Venus moves into the same dynamic, opposing Saturn and squaring the Mars-Jupiter conjunction. This forms a T-square, a challenging astrological pattern that often brings tension and the need for resolution. Venus’s involvement suggests that relationships, values, and resources may come under scrutiny, requiring balance and adjustment.
Mercury Retrograde and Uranus Influence: The week also sees Mercury retrograde squaring Uranus, adding a layer of unpredictability and potential disruption, particularly in communication and technology. This aspect, combined with a Kazimi (when Mercury is in the heart of the Sun), emphasizes breakthroughs or sudden realizations, albeit through chaotic or unexpected events.
Full Moon and Uranus: The Full Moon, with its square to Uranus, culminates this energetic buildup, highlighting a need for change or a shift in perspective. This Uranian influence could bring about sudden shifts or liberating experiences, reinforcing the theme of breaking free from outdated patterns.
Archetypal Themes:
Speed and Amplification: The Mars-Jupiter conjunction in Gemini accelerates mental processes, communication, and data exchange. This could lead to quick decisions, bold statements, or conflicts arising from hastiness. However, the positive side includes increased confidence, courage, and a sense of victory in overcoming challenges.
Pressure Cooker Dynamics: The square from Saturn introduces a testing period where strength, determination, and focus are required. This aspect suggests a need to channel the high energy of Mars-Jupiter into disciplined and constructive efforts. It’s a time for heroic perseverance in the face of obstacles, whether expected or unforeseen.
Overcoming Obstacles: The combination of Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn signals a time to overcome hurdles through intelligence, discipline, and hard work. Whether these challenges were anticipated or not, the key lies in steadfast effort and strategic planning.
Structural Reformation: The Jupiter-Saturn square, amplified by Mars, points to a period of restructuring or reorganization. This could manifest in personal, professional, or societal frameworks, necessitating decisive actions to rebuild or reform systems that no longer serve their purpose.
Necessity as a Catalyst for Innovation: Saturn’s restrictive influence often forces creative solutions. As constraints become apparent, particularly in areas related to Gemini (communication, technology, information), the necessity to adapt or innovate becomes a driving force.
Practical Applications:
Stay Grounded: With the rapid pace and potential for misunderstandings, particularly in communication, take time to think before you speak or act. Patience and clarity will be your allies.
Embrace Challenges: View obstacles as opportunities for growth. The pressure cooker environment created by Saturn’s square may feel intense, but it’s also a chance to demonstrate resilience and determination.
Be Open to Change: The Uranian influence suggests that surprises or sudden shifts are likely. Embrace these as opportunities to break free from old patterns and move towards greater freedom or innovation.
Reevaluate Structures: Whether in personal habits, relationships, or professional endeavors, consider where reorganization or restructuring is needed. This is a time to build stronger, more sustainable foundations.

Imane Khelif: Navigating Legal Action and Gender Eligibility in Women’s Boxing
In recent years, the field of competitive sports has been met with increasing scrutiny over the eligibility of athletes to compete in gender-specific categories. A prominent case capturing global attention is that of Algerian boxer Imane Khelif, who, following her triumph in the women’s welterweight division at the Paris 2024 Olympics, is taking legal action in response to media allegations questioning her gender eligibility. This article explores Khelif's journey, the controversies surrounding her gender identity, and the broader implications of her legal case in the world of women’s sports.
Imane Khelif’s Career and Olympic Journey
Imane Khelif’s career is a testament to resilience. Known for her strength and agility, she claimed victory at the Paris 2024 Olympics, a pinnacle achievement following years of dedication to the sport. Khelif’s Olympic journey, however, has not been without setbacks. Prior to her recent triumph, she faced exclusion from the 2023 World Championships when the International Boxing Association (IBA) failed to verify her gender eligibility under its chromosome-based testing criteria. Despite these challenges, Khelif’s resolve remained unshaken, leading her to compete at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, where her performance bolstered her reputation in the boxing world.
Gender Eligibility Controversy: Medical Leaks and Media Scrutiny
In the wake of her Olympic success, Khelif became entangled in a media storm when a French magazine, “Le Correspondant,” allegedly leaked part of her medical records, suggesting that she possessed XY chromosomes—a characteristic typically associated with male biology. This revelation stirred controversy, casting doubt on her eligibility to compete in women’s boxing and igniting public debates about the integrity of gender-specific categories in sports.
The situation escalated when Khelif’s victory over Italian boxer Angela Carini led to further speculation. The emotional reaction of Carini, who reportedly left the fight in tears, fueled additional scrutiny around Khelif's participation. This incident underscored the complexities surrounding gender and eligibility in women’s sports and the heightened sensitivity of these issues in public discourse.
Imane Khelif’s Legal Response
Determined to protect her personal and professional reputation, Imane Khelif has initiated legal proceedings against those responsible for disseminating what she deems as misinformation regarding her gender identity. In a statement, Khelif expressed her intent to prosecute those who released her medical information and spread falsehoods during the Olympics. Her decision to pursue litigation not only reflects her resolve to protect her privacy but also highlights a broader need for ethical media practices, especially when handling sensitive matters of identity.
Implications of Gender Eligibility in Women’s Sports
Khelif’s case is emblematic of a wider issue confronting sports organizations: how to create fair competition frameworks that respect both the integrity of women’s sports and the personal identities of athletes. Currently, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and other governing bodies rely on a combination of chromosome analysis and hormone levels to determine eligibility for women’s events. This approach, while intended to promote fairness, has been criticized for its narrow focus and for imposing rigid standards that may not fully encompass the complexities of gender.
The debate over gender eligibility in sports is particularly fraught when considering athletes who are transgender or have intersex traits. Critics argue that allowing individuals with male physiological characteristics to compete in women’s categories undermines the achievements of female athletes, while proponents emphasize the importance of respecting athletes’ chosen identities. The lack of clear, universally accepted guidelines has led to inconsistencies in policy enforcement, as seen in Khelif’s case.
The Broader Social Impact of Imane Khelif’s Case
The societal discourse surrounding Imane Khelif's legal battle extends beyond sports, touching on themes of gender identity, ethics in journalism, and the rights of athletes. Social media has been a catalyst in this conversation, with both supporters and critics voicing their perspectives. Public figures and sports professionals have also weighed in, reflecting a divided opinion on whether existing policies are sufficient or require modification.
Khelif’s story illustrates the struggles faced by athletes who fall under public scrutiny due to factors beyond their athletic ability. The reactions to her situation reveal the broader societal challenges in reconciling traditional gender norms with evolving understandings of gender identity. As she continues her fight, Khelif’s legal journey may serve as a precedent, prompting sports organizations to reevaluate their standards and procedures.
Potential Changes in Sports Policy and Khelif’s Future in Boxing
The legal outcome of Imane Khelif’s case has the potential to influence future policy changes in sports, particularly around eligibility criteria for women’s events. Should Khelif succeed in her legal battle, her case could encourage other athletes with similar experiences to come forward, prompting a shift in how sports bodies address gender eligibility. This case underscores the necessity for sports organizations to develop comprehensive, inclusive policies that reflect current understandings of gender while preserving the integrity of competitive sports.
Despite the ongoing legal battle, Khelif remains committed to her boxing career. She has expressed interest in transitioning to professional boxing, signaling her dedication to the sport and her determination to forge ahead, regardless of the controversies surrounding her identity.
Conclusion
Imane Khelif journey as a champion boxer is marked by resilience in the face of adversity, both in the ring and in public discourse. Her legal actions against those who questioned her gender eligibility highlight the need for respectful and ethical handling of sensitive personal information. As her case unfolds, it serves as a critical moment for the sports community, offering a lens through which we can examine the complexities of gender identity, fairness, and policy in competitive sports. Whether Khelif’s efforts lead to policy reform or broader social awareness, her fight remains a powerful symbol of courage and perseverance in the face of significant challenges.

Its time to give my headcanon for one of my favorite StarTrek ships, the U.S.S. Yeager
By the dawn of the 2370s, Starfleet was, once again, embroiled in an Arms Race for the survival of both itself and the Federation. It had began the 2360s as the top power in the known Galaxy, its only near peers either allied or hadn't been seen in a *century*. Now the Klingon-Federation Alliance was failing, the Romulans had emerged from their isolation, the Borg had *slaughtered* the Federation Fleet at Wolf 359,and the Dominion had emerged as a new threat.
Starfleet had long followed a policy of only building new ships for frontline roles, with other roles being covered by older vessels. After the loss at Wolf 359, Starfleet had begun a fleet modernization program, but the majority of the fleet was over half a century in age, and new, more tactically minded designs were needed. Starfleet turned to their shipyards, and design teams were given free range to design their wildest dreams, as long as it could fight. Hundreds of designs were submitted by 2371, but only so many could be selected for prototype construction.
It was into this era the Intrepid Class was launched. Nominally a science vessel, the class prototype’s frame had been under-construction during Wolf 359. This had resulted in a last minute redesign, giving the class far more redundancies and weapon arrays. The Intrepid class that emerged in 2370 proved to be fast, agile, and tough as nails. When put through combat trials, the science vessel proved to reliably punch above her weight class. Starfleet was suitably impressed, and authorized full production of the class, but a question arose. Could a tactical vessel be built from this science vessel's framework?
A design team was gathered, and the concept for the vessel quickly took shape. Drawing inspiration from one of Starfleet’s most prolonged headaches, the Klingon Bird of Prey, the proposed design featured a Primary Hull of the same type used on the intrepid class, a triangular secondary hull, and down swept wing like pylons mounting Intrepid type nacells. Early simulations showed promise, but the project had fierce competition from its rivals, each team racing to get their concept to the prototype phase as quickly as possible, and the team was concerned their project would be shelved before they could complete the work of designing the new secondary hull. Instead they approached the admiralty with an unusual proposition.
The team argued the technology for their project had already been proven in the Intrepid class. The configuration was the untested variable, and more specifically, how it performed in combat. The design could be tested for those traits *before* with a temporary secondary hull design in place, allowing Starfleet to determine if the project was worth pursuing before using the time and resources to design a full secondary hull. The admiralty, hungry for results, agreed. The team searched through existing hull designs for the closest hull profile to the concept, finding the mark in a design for a patrol craft (which had since become infamous for its role with the Maquis) and a MK 0 prototype was built. The ship was an odd sight, the elegant lines of the intrepid meshing with the harsh utilitarian lines of the patrol ship's hull. Furthermore, the hull had been scaled up to the intended size of the finalized design, her interior decks hastily redesigned to fit an intrepid style engineering assembly. Normally this would have been a poor proposition, as the hull limited the ships top speed severely due the hull being designed to work at a much smaller scale, but the prototype was meant for only one purpose, combat.
The hull, nicknamed Prototype 0, entered her trials in mid-2373. Despite her construction's inherent limitations, she proved a lethal combatant. She proved to possess all the firepower and durability of her sister class, but with improved firepower and agility. Hull number NX-65674 returned triumphant, having proven the class's worth. Full development of the class was approved, but to the shock of the team, NX-65674 would not be returned to the team to test the new hull. She was to enter service. Starfleet needed every combat capable ship they had, no exceptions. Prototype 0 was hastily refitted, her secondary hull given significant structural reinforcements and a more permanent layout, then launched as the new U.S.S. Yeager NCC-65674. Following the completion of her trials, 5 more hulls were authorized for construction to the Mk 0 design, while U.S.S. Yeager was assigned to Deep Space 9 in light of rising tensions with the Dominion.
The finalized Mk1 design would enter service in late 2374, a far more conventional looking vessel, with all future class members being built to this design. Following the end of the Dominion war in 2375, the surviving Mk 0 hulls would receive ‘refits’ replacing their engineering hulls with the finalized Mk1 design. The final MK 0 Yeager (the prototype herself) would be refit in 2377.
