Should I create an indigenous tunes playlist….

I ended up making 2 lol

New Indigenous Sounds

Classic NDN Drumming & Songs

Theyre both works in progress, both have around 56 songs

The first playlist includes a lot of native rap and Polynesian reggae, some better known artists and is in my opinion pretty well rounded

The second playlist is more tradish songs, if you have a hand drum you can drum along to some. My favourites are Annishnaabe Kwe and the Strong Woman Song

Both playlists are made on YouTube!

Bit of advice to anyone who is new to kink or even just sex: assume “no”, “stop”, “too much”, “wait” etc are safewords unless you specifically negotiate otherwise.

You can play with “no no it’s too much stop” type stuff being banter or dirty talk or whatever, but you shouldn’t assume they are. Yes even if you set a safeword and you or the other person isn’t using it.

Also: getting quiet or not very responsive is a reason to check in. Someone not being able to give you a clear “yes I’m having fun let’s keep going” or seeming a bit off is a reason to stop when you do check in, especially when they’re a new partner.. You can’t just assume things are fine bc they haven’t said the safeword.

Safewords should be extra measures to ensure ongoing consent, not the only measure.

BREAKING CHARACTER REAL QUICK FOR A SLEEP SUPPLEMENT PSA FOR MY FELLOW VAMPIRES AND NIGHT OWLS:

so I’ve had chronic insomnia since early childhood and the only thing that helps me fall asleep without the “oh, I’ve been drugged” feeling is melatonin

and never once have I seen any instructions on the bottle anything beyond “take at or before bedtime”

EXCEPT

my doctor tells me last week that you’re not supposed to do this otherwise it really fucks with your circadian rhythms! apparently the optimal time to take melatonin is around sunset (if you want to be asleep by 10pm-12am) because darkness is what naturally stimulates the brain to secrete melatonin

taking it too late (i.e., past 9pm if you intend to sleep around 11pm and wake up at 7am) can majorly screw up your circadian rhythm and keep you feeling groggy and sleepy af well into the day!!! which explains a lot for me personally — not the whole picture but certainly some of it! 

so what I’ve been doing is I take my regular dose as soon as I notice it’s dark outside (around 7:45pm these days) and I start getting sleepy around 10pm-11pm depending on the day I’ve had. I’m fucking full on passing out by midnight, like phone falling on my face, gotta sleep now. and my sleep isn’t perfect but it’s a lot better than it was! I get a solid unbroken 6-7 hours stretch which is huge for me and I don’t feel like death warmed over needing both vyvanse and caffeine to even think about functioning!

anyway if you already knew this then GOOD FOR YOU BUDDY WHY DIDN’T YOU TELL ME AT ANY POINT IN THE PAST 15 YEARS and if not, I hope you try it out and it helps even a bit! 🖤

YES! And - if trying to notice when sunset is happening doesn’t work for you, you can also take it at a consistent time every day, about 5 hours before you want to be asleep. I was SO skeptical when my sleep doctor told me this - I’d been taking melatonin at bed time (like it says on the tin!) and developing a tolerance, so every few weeks I’d have to take more and more. But when taking it 5 hours ahead of time, a thing no one would reasonably do if they weren’t specifically told to do so, I’ve been KO’d by the same 1.5 mg dose for 4 years.
