I and L were on the hunt for some bondage equipment, but none caught my eye. I could already picture the disappointment, a product made in China with the same factory, design, and just a different brand logo. The allure of better model, professional photoshoots, and editing making them appear a hundred times more expensive—probably crafted with illegal child labor or modern slavery, a harsh reality we can’t escape nowadays.
Let’s compare three options:
- Honey Birdette 200 AUD
- Agent Provocateur 255 AUD *Paddle ONLY
- Temu 16 AUD
In the end, I opted for a DIY approach—buying duct tape, cable ties, and cotton rope from Daiso for versatile uses beyond just tying ankles and wrists. Despite my reservations, L purchased a bunch from Love Honey™, but I’ll spare the details as Google Console isn’t particularly fond of explicit content. (Also, no sponsorship yet—HMU, Love Honey UwU🍆) It’s interesting how even GPT gets uncomfortable when $3x is brought up. Why is everyone so shy about it? It shouldn’t be.
Today, I faced another interview—finally, a face-to-face one. Strangely, it made me more shy and nervous than talking about $3x. This time, I prepared for the interview rather than freestyling an Eminem rap. Last time, when the Korean interviewer asked about my strengths and weaknesses, I couldn’t confess to my weaknesses. It’s not that I only have strengths; it’s more like I have too many weaknesses, and if there are too many, it won’t sound good. So, I found a way to present myself well without lying too much. For example:
My weakness list:
- Lazy: I find the most efficient way possible. I prioritize efficiency, working really fast.
- Give up easily: I quickly look for alternative ways to solve a problem. I’m a problem solver.
- Judgmental: I have high standards.
- Nitpick: I have a meticulous nature, attention to detail.
and so on…
I also had to white lie about my strength because if I rank my strengths:
1st prize: I’m funny.
2nd: Cute.
But I don’t think any HR would hire someone just because they’re funny and cute. So, I said I’m an easily adaptive person (adaptability ranked 10552nd on my strength list) because it sounds good in an interview, right? Hiring a new person who isn’t adaptive could be a headache, I guess.
In my previous (or should I say still current) job, I had an LGBTQI work husband. We used to call each other ‘saviour’ because without him, work wasn’t fun at all, and vice versa. We used to joke and talk dirty a lot. On a serious note, I believe we shouldn’t think we can save someone else from their problems and issues unless with moneyㅋㅋ or if they ask for help. When people with issue, they don’t even acknowledge their issues, it’s a waste of time and energy. A friend of a friend of a friend often provides shelter for drug addicts, and it always ends up badly. He said, ‘I just tried to help them.’ Another friend of a friend of an internet friend of an actual friend tries to help a girl with her problematic boyfriend, though I don’t think it will ever work. Some people have a helping and caring nature, but sometimes they confuse it with their selfish motives—they help others to feel less uncomfortable themselves if that makes sense?
I’ve noticed an increase in my writing lately, and it’s mainly because L encourages me to do so. According to him, it’s a good habit and a valuable practice. An individual with really low self-esteem, like me, enjoys falling in love with someone or something (addictive personality traits) because it makes me feel like I’m an existing being. So, recently, I feel like I’m using L to feel alive, not gonna lie.
When I doom-scroll through my Instagram feed for hours while lying in bed, What adds an extra layer of entertainment is reading the comments one by one, alongside the content. The unexpected bursts of laughter are incredibly addictive. It’s akin to watching a comedy movie or stand-up show where you anticipate the humor, but on social media, random people commenting on random subjects can be surprisingly hilarious. Even though these moments are rare, that’s what makes it all the more rewarding, like finding a needle in a haystack.
This has no funny comment:
