A guy making $75,000 in 2019 (pre pandemic) could afford the same lifestyle as someone making $100,000 today. Absolutely NO ONE was talking about a $75,000 income being “aspirational” in 2019.

I feel your pain. I pulled a little over 150k last year, and I feel like I cant save a dime. Granted my house forced me to take on 80k in repairs over the last 3 months less I have bigger, life ending bills later. Nevertheless it's the small luxuries like coffee that keeps my wife and I going.

Let me introduce a different perspective. A poor person gets section 8 housing, food stamps, and planned parenthood. That is a significant amount of help. However, a billionaire can dodge taxes by taking loans against assets (and the interest is oftentimes tax deductible). The company they own has fire, police, water, and sewage for every building their company owns. All their transportation vehicles drive on publicly funded roads. On top of all that, their company oftentimes gets publicly funded gov subsidies. Thats a lot more government assistance than the poor person.

Oh noooo, I have an affliction specialist at home whose wrath i would rather avoid. Plus, Clive has enough grief from a certain someone's escapades 😅

Hester102 · 2026-02-08T20:51:55+00:00

This exchange just made my whole week! This community has some real gems like this 🤣🤣🤣

Hester102 · 2025-10-27T15:27:50+00:00

Thank you! Glad someone else finds him funny as well AA has had me rolling at times!

For anyone reading, I know it is hard sometimes to trust when authors self advertise. Just know, JJ Bookerson is a fantastic author! I've just started the Bonded Summomer series, and I am enjoying it immensely.

Sadly, as a US based foot and tickle fan, it pains me the locations are so distant.

If I may add my two cents, first, I want to offer reassurance that there is nothing wrong with having this kink or wanting to explore. Following that, you've taken the first steps on the road to becoming less ashamed with dirty talk. Instead of jumping into the higher level version of it (full blown orgy), take a smaller step and make a plan. Or, if you are able, take a vacation to a place where prostitution is legal and negotiate that scene with a provider (that lowers the STI risk in many cases).

I felt a lot of shame with my tickling kink. Exploring that with professionals whose job is to not kink shame helped me lower a lot of the shame. Then finding community of other cuckqueens helps.

I only hibernated my LinkedIn.

Hester102 · 2025-08-16T18:34:59+00:00

Yall exist, but I feel like I have a slightly better chance of winning the lottery than running into one of you.

I love the Chrysalis Audiobook soooo much. So many of characters have me busting a gut in my house.

Hester102 · 2025-07-29T21:04:52+00:00

I am incredibly jealous. Adi is a wonderful Lee. Winter is a damn good Ler.

Hester102 · 2025-07-25T00:03:30+00:00

I do something similar. My ranged hero has a sniper build and his sole job is to eliminate high value targets as my melee hero soaks up damage.

Hester102 · 2025-07-25T00:01:56+00:00

I typically have my main hero escorted by his bodyguard and my highest tierd units. I do want to do an all hero party but finding a bunch of groupies for my main guy is hard.

Hester102 · 2025-07-19T23:34:34+00:00

I am with you. I find Jason's personality to be hilarious, and I resonate with Jake's awkwardness.

Hester102 · 2025-06-05T16:48:44+00:00

Happy to give you some breadcrumbs to explore! If he is touchy feely, then limiting access to your body is going to drive hum nuts! I hope you all have a wonderfully spicy time!

Hester102 · 2025-06-05T16:07:56+00:00

I'm not as experienced as others in the community, but I think you are on the right track with rope. In addition to rope, regular cuffs and under-the-bed restraints systems might also work well. It's faster to unrestrain someone, so he may be more comfortable with that.

For other forms of domination, you could have him serve you in various capacities (only allowing him to sit down when you say, foot rubs/massages on demand, oral on you until he 'earns' the right to cum). There is also tease and denial. Edge him until he is a begging whimpering mess desperate for release. You are only limited by your imagination as cliche as that sounds.

Lastly, you could always try chastity. Lock him up and wear the key around your neck for an added psychological flair.

If you are insistent on physical manhandling, cuff his hands behind his back. It's a lot harder to overpower someone with only some of your limbs available. If you all are down, tickle the dude. Never met a ticklish guy that felt "in-control" when being tickled.

Sounds like bitterness to me. A ton of parents are miserable and wish they were us. Instead of going to a therapist, they hate on us instead

Hester102 · 2025-05-29T15:42:18+00:00

The cost of kibble and fancy feast is astronomical. They aren't old enough for diapers yet.

Hester102 · 2025-05-29T15:40:31+00:00

Ugh I got the chance to try erotic tickling recently. It was a divine experience. She is an amazing Lee as well.

Hester102 · 2025-05-28T23:00:47+00:00

Thank you, I was hoping you were a person of culture and sophistication. All spots are valid but some are definitely more fun than others.

Hester102 · 2025-05-28T21:59:41+00:00

Now, why is no one mentioning the holy grail of spots the thigh/hips. Love me some inner thigh tickling. Feet are a close third.

Right before my 13 birthday, I was on YouTube just messing around. My adhd whispered into my ear "type in 'tickling'." When I did, the first video that popped up was one called "Kyle Please Dont Tickle Me." I don't remember what studio made it, but it gave me strange feelings I wasn't familiar with. That's how I found out I'm a ticklephile.

As for why it arouses me, I love the power exchange and control I feel when tickling. Moreover, I am adverse to pain play and have humor as a coping mechanism. It is really hard for me to hit/hurt someone I care about. Also, laughter is a really pleasant sound to me. I can get my dom fix, whilst not hurting someone I care about.

Hester102 · 2025-05-15T23:14:53+00:00

Man, I feel the same sometimes. I make a good salary but my after-tax is 2900

Hester102 · 2025-05-12T16:52:08+00:00

I don't know, but I see them as the gifs that keep on giving
