DomCon NOLA Goes Virtual

A little something out of the archives

A little something out of the archives

Personally,this was a hard summer, and things are still very difficult at home. There’s been very little time for art. But I have good news for you. DomCon New Orleans is going virtual. No sharing an airplane with coughing passengers. No using a bullwhip to socially distance (well, I guess some of us were looking forward to that part).

I put in an appearance in DomCon Virtual Los Angeles and I’ll probably be able to make it for NOLA virtual. If I do, I’ll bring the sketchpad and cook up some new kinky art.

Be seeing you!

Update: On strike until Juneteenth

The social media blackout started something with me. The present situation at home and outside has been pretty bleak. This isn’t the time for pretty, sexy drawings in the social media narrative.

Some are saying silence equals approval of police brutality, but there’s a bigger picture I’m not the only one to notice. Many were asked to stop producing content on Twitter and Instagram as it was distracting from the narrative and discussion that Black Lives Matter, even if supportive. For example, do we really need a white celebrity taking the spotlight to say what they should have been saying all along?

I’m also very frustrated with the social media feeds. Media thrives on conflict.

I refuse to drive conflict by contributing content and diverting the necessary message.

So, until Juneteenth, quite the coincidence, I am on strike from social media. I will retweet stuff for Sanctuary and support positive stuff where I can, but I will not feed further content into the mind grinder until at least June 19th passes.

This message is not intended as grandstanding. This will not be posted in my feeds. Instead, I have acted by donating to Black Lives Matter, and will continue to donate. Instead of simply doing nothing, I will stand back from the spotlight so Black people who need to be heard can be heard, and I am personally acting to support people in my daily life.

Black lives still matter!

Why so quiet?

Coming in June to FetishForLife.com

Going to start with the obvious, in case you care where I stand. Black lives STILL matter. In high school, I was considering going into law enforcement. I studied law enforcement books and publications. I worked at a gun shop and knew plenty of cops. Police brutality is still unacceptable, and Black Lives Still Matter.

To be candid, personal things at home are bad. I’m spending less time on social media, even less time on my computer. They may not be getting better for months.

The good news is, I tested negative in mid May. Combined with other factors, I feel more confident about opening the Etsy store in the near future, but, see above.

We’ll see. It may stop, but it never ends.
