Tuesday night again! Nattering time.

Hmm. Nothing really suggesting itself. I want to discuss my opinion of Patreon and its effect on the mind control smut ecosystem, but that's going to take more brainpower than I can currently muster. Iago sent a very nice - and detailed, holy cow - note about CORE #11 and in my response I wondered if he might give me an assist with 'That Which Has Been Lost', which he then offered to do, so now I kinda need to take him up on that don't I? Argh, where to find the time.

What I ought to do is set up a writing habit - not just this stream of consciousness blog posting, fun as it may be, but something like the original 'Tabico's Tuesday Tidbit' where I actually do some writing, just to get something down. Hrm. Not happening tonight, but maybe on Thursday... that would be alliterative...

Of course that does raise the quality control problem. Before I publish to the EMCSA I always edit my work at least a couple of times, and my edits are often fairly transformative. Whereas this sort of thing would be purely first-draft rough stuff, and if I did that with a story I want to actually publish, well, you dear reader would have your experience altered by seeing it first here, with all the warts and false starts, and then who wants to read it over again if it's just polished a little?

Then again, if I never write it at all, it doesn't do a whole lot of good that it didn't show up ugly to begin with. So maybe we'll try that. Lemme see what's in my bag.

Tabenings - Why Are You Like This Edition

Another post saved by habit! I think "it's late, I want to watch last night's Daily Show and Late Night with Colbert and then hit the hay... oh, but it's Tuesday and I should post something. Eh, nothing much to say... can I just do it tomorrow?"

And the answer is no! Doing it tomorrow means that it won't get done!

So here I am.

Topic, topic... ah here's one!

As you have doubtless observed from the last few weeks, I snarf for porn on a regular basis. Generally I come back with between a few and a bunch of yummy finds - I'm like a dragon, man, lying on a hoard of mind control / lesbian / hot nekkid women pictures - but nothing that really flicks its finger between my legs. The sort of thing where I have to exert effort NOT to get off, as compared to working myself up to orgasm.

But then there's the infrequent instance that I bump upon something that just smacks its hand on my buttons, for reasons I mostly understand but still mystify me as to why they have such erotic power over me.

I encountered one of those this week!

It's just four pictures - actually, one picture with minor edits and dialogue changes to make a sequence - but, WHAM.

I understand to a first approximation why I like it:

• Raven. Oh, is she hot to me. That grey skin, that attitude, I just, rrr. Rr.
• Human cow fetishism. If you've read 'Herd Instinct', you know I swing that way. I love big tits (though I love small ones as well) and I love the whole 'domesticated animal' angle.
• Scary intellection reduction. This is where it gets skeevy - and also so, so hot. I can't explain it, rationally it is ridiculous and frightening yet my libido is whistling and stomping its feet and waving its handkerchief.
• Enthusiastic participation. Also intellectually a total baffler - yet one of my most powerful hot buttons. She wants this? WTF? And Oh God Yes.

As I say, if I try to understand why those last two points are so hot to me, I can't. Volunteering to have your brain shriveled up, leaving you a placid cow - no one would ever do it and it's really pretty horrifying. And yet DANG do I find it a turn-on. Ach, so helpless against how hot it is.

This is probably part of the reason I keep my mind control fantasies firmly behind the computer screen, where I can enjoy them without having to worry about how they get along with anything in real life. When folks ask me if I've tried hypnotism or do any sexy role-playing, the answer is "absolutely not" - because the kind of stuff I like just doesn't translate well to real people. And I don't want it to.

Luckily, I also don't need it to. When it comes time for morally questionable fetish smut, Raven is there for me, letting my imagination dance hand in hand with my libido down the slippery road to orgasm-town, with no requirement whatsoever that I take into consideration anything that might muddy up the picture.

Tabenings - Mid May Edition

Herro again!

So at least habit is clearly helping with this Tuesday thing, but we both know that what you want is not me nattering at you about random things but rather more salacious story writing. I gotta figure out a way to get some smut writing back in my life.

The problem is, Tabico daughter doesn't go to bed until nine, and I can't get into the zone writing if I'm worried about her walking in to see what I'm doing and finding this sort of stuff on the screen. So that means no writing until night time.

And at night I'm tired. Whine. I work weekdays and do errands and chores all weekend... when do I get a block of a couple of hours when I'm not tired and not vulnerable to "hey what'cha writing?" in my life? The answer is: I don't.

Barring the invention of Lokisday, I'm just not sure what I'm gonna do. One ray of hope is the summer - although the spawn will be around even more frequently, my work schedule does change potentially allowing me to be at home on a weekday or two. That's how I was able to work on 'Pierced' last year, and the majority of CORE #11 as well - my work schedule didn't cover all five days.

But until then I just gotta see what I can do with weeknights. There's gotta be a few more hours in here somewhere...

Tabenings - HF Edition

Ackpth, Tuesday again? I haven't even responded to the very nice fan mail that came in... last week... gahhh...

Well anyways.

A couple of you were kind enough to respond to my question about smut browsing. Now, I love you both - everyone else can suck my metaphorical dick, but not you guys - so please remember that when I say:

Get on my level!

Hypnohub? Daily! Sometimes twice! E-hentai? No... EX-hentai! I want the forbidden stuff too! Also daily! First search: parasite. Second search: mind control. Third search: corruption!

Sometimes I'll use my years of accumulated smut knowledge to go beyond that - for instance, for some reason the Japanese love their Dragon Quest V / Bianca doujinshi; and so do I! And, knowing that, I have only to search 'bianca english' to get a good helping of delicious corruption.

See, apparently in Dragon Quest V the protagonist is forced to leave his lovely wife Bianca in the nefarious clutches of the demon horse-man Jami. In the game I suppose this all works out okay - I've never played it - but in the pages of smut Bianca winds up getting banged by demon horse cock in a variety of unrealistic ways and most often winds up loving it, and once corrupted sets about helping her new master take over the kingdom.

Which leads to lovely shots like this:

As a corrupted and pregnant Bianca returns to her castle to betray the place to her demon lover.

Why, just recently this one showed up:

Wherein we get some (I guess it's an obvious choice) pony play along with the yummy moral collapse.

So, yes, ex-hentai. Definitely. (Links here are to e-hentai because you don't have to log in.)

Hentai Foundry? Daily as well - but where? Be specific, my friends!

Are you referring to... (you'll need to connect to HF to see these...)

Rupert Everton?

The Kite?

Maybe you also like Mad Scientist?

Silverado?

Or even Synthean?

All favorites of mine! Oh, sure, they don't always hit the right buttons - ferinstance, futa, blech - but when they do... BAM!

So! Any gems out there?

Tabenings - Deviant Edition

Tuesday again!

Me? Smut? No, don't ask.

On the other hand, though, if you aren't regularly checking DreampaintLoon's Deviant Art page, you won't have seen the yummy new Overwatch latex pics displayed there:

And the follow-up pic of post-latexification Tracer, for which you I shall make you go visit the page, is equally searing hot! I dunno what it is about the open mouth with covered eyes look - and of course the whole glossy latex thing - but... RAWR. Rawr, I say.

Of course, the marvelous execution helps.

I wish I could draw. I know DPL can write, I mean you only have to look at the captions for the pictures to recognize that.  I've been a fan for years, actually, through multiple moniker changes, back to well before Second Life was a thing; I have photomanips DPL did from the late 90s.

That's right, buddy, they're mine and I'm keeping them. Ha ha!

If only I had saved more of Maddy Wrose's stuff.

Anywhoo, my usual late-night smut habits almost invariably start off with a trip to Dreampaint's Deviant Art page, not just for any new updates there, but more usually just to use the favorites tab. Why should I search for hot pics when I can just parasitically avail myself of the efforts of someone who shares my tastes? Hmm? I mean, come on - Shiniez, Telsis, RubberMatt... and updated regularly! What more could I ask?

Now, if that only whets the appetite, I find that creativeguy59 also has a well-chosen and oft-maintained favorites page, in addition to creating very yummy artwork of his own.

Another tactic I'll take is to visit Uzobono's page, bring up the latest issue of CORE or Aria, see who favorited it, and then jump to their favorites page and see if anything similar yet new to me is revealed - as it often is.

It's true I can check my notifications page, which I do, but it doesn't help me bump into new artists.

What about you? Any good jumping-off points you recommend for naughty art perusal?
