By all accounts Cleopatra was both seductive and a huge sadist, and used both her sexuality and her cruelty to great political effect. But this was also true of a number of male rulers in the classical era, and they don’t get the same sex-object treatment that Cleopatra gets. Ehh.

And then, more in the realm of fantasy, there are sales. Inspection is always going to be a big part of that storyline, with its complexity of emotions: you don’t want to get sold, but you don’t want to be perceived as poor merchandise, either.

And now in the department of political silliness:
The Idaho liquor board has declined to sell Five Wives Vodka in their state liquor stores, a move which they say is largely based on pricing and quality. However, they have also taken the rather extreme step of banning Idaho bars from stocking it themselves.
The issue here is the label, which was initially described as “offensive to women and Mormons”, but now the liquor board has backtracked and said it’s mostly the women that they’re worried about, and it’s just not very good vodka anyway.
Since Idaho was bringing their rape laws up to early-20th-century standards as recently as last year, this new concern for women’s rights is quite refreshing…
OK, so when I started with all the animals, it was because of this picture, which I then was unable to find. Here it is at last! This reminds me of us, except there are only two of us, and the cat would be climbing across them.
seriously, that cat is the piece de resistance

OK, I lied about no more animals. But c’mon, its snails, which I already have run as their own theme. And ahem, I am still looking for the snail-and-ring-gag picture. Anybody?

I generally avoid images of supercomplicated bondage/torture/fetish setups, which usually seem like basically an engineering kink. It’s not that I’m against the idea, but normally those images don’t have much storyline or emotional interest. Here, I kind of like the story, but I am completely absorbed in the physics of the situation. I mean, I can’t tell whether it makes any real difference when the dog goes for the bone. After all, her ankles are held at a fixed height, and it seems like the wooden pony is hanging from her(?)
Confuuuuuusing.
Such an enticing bone.

I think this is the only time I’ve seen a crustacean used as a sex toy.
