Daily writing promptWrite about your dream home.View all responses Photo by Carlos Costa on Unsplash I regularly tell people I live with seventy-five million people. In fact, our house is home to Mr Jones, myself, The Unicorn, The Boarder (girl same age as The Unicorn, aware of our lifestyle, but not part of it), FIL (in his own separate part of the house) two cats, a budgie, a lorikeet and about 15 chickens. Sometimes it feels like seventy-five million! I go through phases of wishing for our own space. A place where we can be as naked as we like whenever we want, have sex wherever and with whoever we like whenever we like. A year or so ago, we even started planning [...]

Photo by Oleg Ivanov on Unsplash Things at my new school are going pretty well. The school grounds are nice, the staff are friendly, and the kids are mostly respectful. Which is refreshing and makes my day go much more smoothly. And then yesterday I was talking to a kid about something and the F word slipped out. not Francium (it was a chemistry class). Fuck At my last school which was the school where parents sent their ADHD, ADD, ASD, ODD, dyslexic, dysgraphic, anxious, school avoiding kids as a last ditch effort to have them actually finish high school the word Fuck found its way into a lot of sentences. Along with cunt, asshole, gay, and a lot of other offensive phrases. [...]

We have reached the end of week 2. I have learned about half the kid’s names. I have had an eventful practical session, remembered a few things about mainstream school that I had forgotten and learned a bunch about this particular school. Ginger and tumeric tea made with fresh roots is keeping my voice healthy. I started over and under the teacher clothes shots for a friend at the start of the year. I like the way the early morning light plays with my skin but I am still working out the angles. What do you think?

In the Land Down Under, summer is at its peak. Where I live, daytime temperatures are routinely in the 30’s (Celsius) and nighttime temperatures are often around 20 degrees. Sometime back in 2025 I made a random decision to apply for a job. Full time for a term. I haven’t really interacted with this school before, so everything about it is unknown. What I do know is that I am heading back to mainstream-type schooling after several years working in an alternative model. I will be dealing with younger students, a fuller timetable and many more demands on my time. Today is the day I join all the other new teachers to be issued keys, laptops and, hopefully, finalised timetables. We will get [...]

He looks cute in this photo, but at 4am not so much! It is four am. Dawn is approaching, the cats are circling, waiting for the moment when I decide it is daytime enough for them to go out. Sleep is a fantasy. Resigned to life, I make tea and then slide into a rabbit hole of my writing and old blog posts. Like this one from 8 January 2013. 1. What feels better, the moment before cumming, the moment of cumming or the moment right after cumming? Jake: The whole lot, really. I don’t think I can isolate a particular part. I get a lot of enjoyment out of watching Gemma cumming though.Gemma: For me it is the moment of cumming. I love when [...]

You are there. Saying hello, sending “gifts” being mindful. You are always a gentleman. In the chaos that is my mind and my life, I don’t always pause to really see your presence. But please know that your messages would be missed if they stopped. I hope you had the chance to spend time with your family over the holidays and that you are staying warm where you are. An older shot that I know you would appreciate

The first sunset of the year was a cracker!! I am sitting at my kitchen bench sipping tea and reflecting on the fortnight that was Christmas – New Year and associated shenanigans. My laundry is littered with clothing and bedding from a week of visiting my parents and camping with what I am starting to consider as my real family. The parental visit was filled with stupid drama based on power plays and the frustration of someone whose mind and health are declining. It is a reminder that we never really know when we will reap what we sow in life. As I shake off the power plays and have rants that reflect the pain of long years of such twisted and toxic [...]

What does one do on Christmas night when one lives in the southern hemisphere? Put on your brand new light-up wings and frolic in the front yard of your house, of course! I am in love with these wings, which also have a flashing function. They are definitely going in the camper when we head out for NYE pineapple camping in a couple of days. What was your favourite Christmas gift?
