Ain’t hung. Circa 6” uncut. But he knows what he’s doing with it and his first load gave 10+ powerful jets of cum. Only needed 10 mins to recharge and good to go again. Needed him to cum 5 times and suck him clean in-between before I felt spent and satisfied.

erik likes suffocation

like if it’s two guys, laying down with one of them, kissing him, jerking him off and then feeling the other guy’s hand go around my neck and start strangling

or if it’s one guy he comes up behind me and slides an arm around my neck and starts squeezing

also almost anything else EXCEPT anal sex, like seriously I don’t wanna get screwed in the butt

currently have a broken ankle :^)

Sharp-edge – Sept 5, 2024
We fucked like rabbits. He’s 100% bottom and he’s into smoking pot. At first I thought that he would take a couple of hits or something like that. But he literally smoked so much pot I had to disable my fire alarm. He could barely move and looked so high and lost. I don’t know if I’m a sicko or something but I loved it.

The epitome of a human born to be sucked and fucked. How lost and out of place he must have felt in his life before he hit puberty. How relieved he must have felt when the pedos started slipping him cash and he realised he didn’t need to be smart or interesting.

If you have not stuck your tongue in his mouth and pussy you have never had sex before.

Iwannacumhardddd – Sept 2, 2024
The moment I saw him in person with those sparkly doggie eyes and dumb grin my scorpio intensity focused completely on his ass and I felt enraged to fuck him and that is what I did. My cum was screaming to escape while he was deepthroating me but I managed to hold it back because his sweet ass was begging to be bombed. The best and more exceptional sex in the history of our planet!

Young skinny scandinavian boy studying in New York looking for the Daddy of his dreams to live with for ever if possible. Yes i do auditions. Very experienced as an accommodating son since age of 14 .. looking to be a son unconditionally by a Daddy anywhere in the world, but preferably at a remote place in Canada.

I’m down to be your father if you take my last name. Always wear a ring or necklace with my initials. If I can control what and how much you eat, change your hair color, swing a crop or belt or whip to work off some tension, and distort your cute face with plastic surgery so I don’t have to worry you’ll cheat on me.

LargeyLarge – Sept 8, 2024
I feel terrible about this but I mislead you to think our date was a father-son audition when I really wanted to nut in someone else’s son. That’s why I’m not returning your texts.

TheWolfOfGaystreet – Sept 3, 2024
I’m an ex-father of this boy, only “ex” because he chose to go to college in the US. I know a lot of people on here are looking to use him to scratch the itch between their legs. That’s cool for you all but the boy’s fetish is permanency. He needs a father who knows what he wants, knows how to get it, and know how to do so while elevating the object of their desires into a son; recognizing the power of fatherhood, accepting that commitment and showing your son how his body, mind, and soul make your impulses uncontrollable and make you want to possess him. He’ll be boring to anyone not looking for those designations. When he fucks, it’s deeply passionate and requires a father-son connection and a commitment. He cannot partition his familial feelings from his fucking. Once a true father-son relationship is established, he will rock your fucking world with the breadth and wildness of his sonhood.

Look, I’m straight but I live with this German man, maybe it’s embarrassing to say but it’s true.

I’m just looking for men who want snort coke on my ass in front of my German friend’s camera.

You snort, he films.

I am cute and was brought here from Colombia.

My German friend supports me.

Payments via immediate transfer or p.a.y.p.a.l are possible.

If I reply a little later, it is because he keeps me very busy.

Years of repressed sexual tension and questioning has led me to find myself drawn to doing what I do more than sex due to a general aversion to physical contact. But if my body doesn’t like being hugged but still needs to find favor, that’d where offering my ass as a drug platform comes in. Or so I have been able to deduce thus far.

I recommend hiring him for a week. Sounds counterintuitive, I know, but trust me.

FeelinLucky – Sept 9, 2024
As soon as he walked through the door, I wanted to eat his ass before he took what looked to be a much needed shower. It was scrawny, barely clean enough, a little sweaty, and had the most inciting spicy smell and taste. Once I was sufficiently disenchanted with it, I fucked and filled it with load after load. The most interesting aspect was, afterwards, when I’d had everything of his there was to have, and he was leaving, I thought he was beautiful, which, seriously, he isn’t.

PrinceLutin – Sept 4, 2024
I had been constantly horny for weeks, and it was interfering with my life. I hired this whore because he looked cute but unimpressive enough to inspire me to empty out all that troubling horniness in one place. And I certainly did. I think the whole building heard my thrusts! I had to put the bed back in place four times after it had crossed the whole room! Three days later and I’m still airing his reek out my bedroom. Even coming back here to leave a review and seeing those photos of him makes me slightly nauseous.

Mia&Brooke, 21
Rotterdam

Hi, our names are Mia and Brooke.

We are gender apathetic. Androgynous but not trans, even if trans lovers don’t see much difference and to assimilate us to trans people is not an insult to us. Gender is very overrated :3

Brooke:
What do I offer? Mental security combined with everything you would do in a relationship, be it pursuing one of your hobbies or whatever else you enjoy. I only offer sex after several hours and then it shouldn’t just be about that.

Mia:
As I know people very well, I also offer mental support with a certain level of closeness, i.e. talking, caring, etc… I’m a lot less inhibited than Brooke. For instance blood, sick and scat don’t scare me but are not required.

Guestbook of Mia&Brooke

While I fantasized that they were objects locked up in a kennel to be fucked and bred at my whim by all manner of human, animal or demon I’m also a mentally healthy and stable adult. I’d love to have forced them into sex trafficking but my strong and practical personality prevented me from completely condemning them to total destruction.

p.s. Hey. ** jay, Hi. I haven’t seen ‘The Beast’ yet. I’m a bit wary. That detachability issue is problem with a number of his films, I think. Wow that’s an old-tilting county you’ve got there. I guess if you were a hooligan you could have fun on Halloween scaring everybody. Good, glad your tight living situation suits you. Hopefully having double occupancy won’t fuck with that. ‘Huge collection of physical media’: if your place is big enough for that, that seems roomy enough. ** Charalampos, Hey. ‘Tiresia’ and ‘Nocturama’ are my favorites of his. I have yet to see ‘Coma’ or ‘The Beast’. I know people who quite liked ‘Coma’. Thank you regarding the film stuff. And about ‘Gold’. I am interested in what I did formally and stylistically with that piece, and I am thinking about where I might be able to take that. I feel like the subject matter of that piece is an area I’ve already covered sufficiently maybe. So I would want to take the prose elsewhere. ‘Gold’ was initially to be part of ‘I Wished’, but I reinvented the novel, and it didn’t fit. That’s the origin. Otherwise, just thinking about my visits to Moscow and the strangeness I viewed and encountered there, I guess. Love back from you know where. ** Bill, ‘Tiresia’ is quite good. Avoid his Saint-Laurent film like the plague. John Butcher, et al, nice! What was the venue? ** Dominik, Hi!!! I would suggest starting with ‘Nocturama’. Thank you about the film thing. We’re trying to negotiate something with you-know-who, and we’re waiting for his next response. He’s been thinking very irrationally lately, so it’s hard to tell what will happen. You’re back to the homeland, eh? Have the hugest fun over the next week, and I’ll do my best to reach a point where I’m not kvetching about the film every day by then. I hope love took care of your rain issue, and his next gig is arranging for a tickertape parade for you upon your arrival, G. ** _Black_Acrylic, Mubi twins. I fed my brain with a streamed film just last night. Kiarostami’s ‘Close Up’. Truly great film if it ever crosses your vision and suits your mood. ** Lucas, Hi. When bad things become deeply uninteresting, that’s usually good sign, I think? I hear you. My friends have had to listen to me complain and worry about film problems virtually every time we’ve been together for years now, and I can see the weariness in their eyes when the subject comes up, and hopefully things will be okay enough soon that when I see that weariness, I’m able to stop my mouth dead in its tracks. Right, you read German novels in German. Huh, I can only imagine. Obviously, every German novel I’ve read has been homogenised to some degree through the English language’s familiarity. What are the German novels you’re reading or thinking of reading? Anything groovy happen to you or within you this weekend per chance? ** HaRpEr, I do so highly recommend the Kristof trilogy. I seem to be at least somewhat okay-ish with traditional containers when the writing is very tight and minimalist, meaning I guess when the traditionalism is kind of skeletal and visible and not hidden under literary flourishes. Totally, about how great that normal seeming -> insane idea is. It’s kind of the ultimate really, I guess. I think my favorite Paul Bowles stories are ‘A Distant Episode’, ‘Pages from Cold Point’, and ‘The Delicate Prey’, which I suppose are kind of everyone’s favorites of his stories. Imagining John W. meeting Paul Bowles is strangely hard to imagine. Excitingly hard of course. I recommend ‘Nocturama’ and ‘Tiresia’ among his films especially. ** Justin D, Hey, hey! ‘Nocturama’ is my favorite. It’s fully fall here now too, and it’s so, so lovely. And magically enlivening. Thank you about the film thing. God, I so incredibly hope to be at least somewhat in the clear soon. I hope your weekend either enhances the good things already going on re: you or throws a cloak of invisibility over the bad things. ** Joe, Hi, Joe! ‘Zombi Child’ is good, okay. ‘Nocturama’ is the one I would try if you get the chance and feel like it. Thanks so much for your sympathies and wish. We desperately need to get past all of this. It’s really fucking up not only the film but everything else too. I need my life back basically. Have a really, really top notch weekend. xo, me. ** Okay. Guess what? It’s the middle of the month. So guess what? See you on Monday.

    Hey Dennis! Hmmmm, I’d say sonforlonely might be my favourite here, there’s something pretty desolate about him.

    Haha, it’s strange to see someone holding A Little Life on these forums. I don’t know if you read it, but I read it when I was like, 14 or 15 and slightly unable to really figure out what was going on for me at the time, so I think it really, really upset me, to the degree I think I even threw it through a window. I think I’m a lot less sensitive now, so maybe I’d enjoy it, I just remember it being so upsetting that I had to throw it out.

    Yeah, it’s a weird town, it’s got really low occupancy during the non-holiday season, so rent is great, but it’s got so many second homes. Haha, I’m not enough of a hooligan for that (read., too socially awkward), but I might go to a few parties with the guy from my flat.

    Oh, my house is actually quadruple occupancy, the other two just haven’t moved in yet. And maybe large physical media collection is a bad way of putting it, I just have a sort of laptop-sized booklet full of DVDs that I really like, so we’ve been watching a bit of that POV style sitcom I really love. Anyway, have a lovely weekend!!!!

    • jay

      Hi again Dennis! Um, I’ve actually had a really nice weekend, which I wasn’t really expecting. At the moment, I’m just burning a DVD with some Greg Araki on for my friend who lives in London – the one I used to be fixated on, who I see once or twice a year. He’s really lovely, and autistic in a way that sort of, I don’t know, really, really made me able to communicate with him, or at least makes me feel like I’m communicating with him without a layer of niceness.

      Ummm, I also had an amazing therapy session, like, best I’ve had in years. I’m sort of still a bit buzzed from that, and I’ve got a sort of nasty rash on my face and mouth from crying, but I’m feeling pretty amazing. It sort of felt like the mental equivalent of getting a splinter taken out, or something like that, or like an exorcism, but yeah anyway, I’m feeling positive in a really stable way, to a degree I haven’t for ages.

      Oh, I also saw that new film “Speak No Evil”, the American remake of a (in my opinion) infinitely superior Scandi film. It was kind of interesting, even if it was a total dilution of the source material. I might also go see that other film “Starve Acre”, because I absolutely adored the book it was based on. Anyway, see you!!

    Good afternoon!
    I opened the blog while sitting on a busy metro, and was taking my time to scroll through these adverts and reviews, not realizing I was sitting next to a father with his young daughter. When I got up to leave he threw me such a confused look. Was he curious or just upset with what he saw looking over my shoulder? Unsure.

    I’m in Paris for four days, which is always nice. It’s been two years since I last visited. Spent most of the day walking around, then ended up at After 8 Books where I found a copy of The Poems of Bob Flanagan, a book by Brainard with his Nancy-drawings and a book I had never heard of before by Mark Von Schlegel (I loved his SF work published by Semiotexte).
    Is Paris always this ‘quiet’ in September? Maybe I’m just steadily going deaf, but it seems so muted in the city. I’ve always visited in high summer or in January after the holidays, it’s nice to be welcomed by this semi-warm autumnal atmosphere. I had a nice chat about your books with the guy working the bookstore, and he pointed me to some audio work of yours on Bandcamp that I’d never heard of before. Going to check that out tonight.

    I hope all is well and that the movie is coming along? Reading the comments section of the last couple of posts it seems like you’ve hit a rough patch? Maybe I’m wrong.

    Looking forward to all the spooky and gory stuff you’ve got cooking for us as Halloween approaches!

  3. _Black_Acrylic

    I see Kiarostami’s Close Up is free to consume via YouTube, so even better. Well defo give that a shot next week.

    The new episode of my show Play Therapy v2.0 is online here via Tak Tent Radio! Ben ‘Jack Your Body’ Robinson presents one of the few times you actually have a kind of a love for humanity. You hear the best part of the soul of the common people, you know, it’s their way of expressing their connection to eternity or whatever you want to call it.

    Hey Dennis, St Laurent just looked like trouble, I haven’t been tempted. Will add Tiresia to my list, though it’s not streaming in the usual places, hmm.

    Some of the boys today remind me of Gisele’s show at Haus am Waldsee, which I saw earlier. It’s good to see the dolls at close quarters, they’re so sad, quiet, and eerie. I have an amusing photo to share from the show, will send by email. There’s another show with Gisele and some women artists making puppet-themed pieces, will head out there after I post this.

    Caught a splendid double bill of two of my favorite experimental/abstract pop groups. Maybe you know Ruth Goller’s project Skylla?

    When it works, which is significantly more often than not, they invoke a kind of magic I associate with Jarman, James Batley, and Scott Treleaven’s collage period.

    2nd set was by Berlin legends Magic ID:

    Been waiting years to see them live. Finally.

    hi. oh, what I meant by uninteresting is that I’m just kind of at an impasse right now with everything. but that’s better than bad and it’ll figure itself out. your complaining about the film situation is way more than understandable. the german novel thing was ‘the trial’ and some kafka short stories haha one of my half-brothers is a huge fan of his and gave me a bunch of his books (including a huge biography I’ll never get to) for my birthday. you told me, I think during one of the times we hung out in paris, that you used to speak dutch fairly well; did you ever read any dutch novels or try to write in it or anything? my weekend was mostly uneventful, but that short story I sent you was featured in the new scab issue that came out today. that counts as groovy I’d say! how about you?

    Hey, Dennis! Great stuff here, obviously. Love this: “But he literally smoked so much pot I had to disable my fire alarm. He could barely move and looked so high and lost. I don’t know if I’m a sicko or something but I loved it.” Thanks for the tip re: ‘Nocturama’—it’s on Criterion Channel as well as ‘Close-Up’ which I saw you mention in the p.s.. I added both of them to my watch list. My weekend wasn’t too bad. I did a bit of work, went for a couple of nice walks, watched a charming, fairy-tale like film on MUBI called ‘Riddle of Fire’; Trailer here. I recommend if you’re in the mood for something adorable/light. It’s my mom’s birthday today, so I’m going to dinner with my parents in a bit. We’re going to some restaurant that she really likes and I haven’t been to yet. How was your weekend?

    Hey. That Kristof book has really peaked my interest, I’m going to see if I can order it from my favourite bookstore tomorrow.
    Oh damn, it really is halfway through the month. Everything seems to speed up when you least expect it.
    Hope you had a good weekend, mine was hectic as hell but not as bad as it could have possibly been. In one week I’ll be back in class and I’m doing all that I can to actually be there, otherwise I’m fucked. I’m taking a class on experimental literature, another called ‘Gender and Sexuality’, and a dissertation/creative project module (I’m obviously opting for the creative project). I’m going to have a very hectic week ahead of me, but it is just a week I suppose.

    ‘Close up’ is amazing, one of those films that feels like a miracle in terms of how it came into existence.

    Gaaaaah, Dennis, I was saving Wingdings for a really rainy day! Darn. All I’ve got to offer today is this.

    Your New York City/LA travels sound crazy good. +/- three weeks!! That’ll be unreal. Will it be, uh, temperate? I guess it’s all air-conned out the wazoo over there, so might not matter as much. Hopefully the film screening is cathartic after all the (still ongoing?) film mess.

    In a nutshell-ish I’m just kinda getting the ball rolling with the whole master’s thing? It’s pretty cool. Seems like there’s a whole lot of design stuff, which makes sense, but I haven’t designed anything since I was like twelve or something. This message is actually sort of rushed because I’m about to embark on my very-long-but-very-pleasant two-hour commute.

    Happy Monday, big guy!
