01) 25-Year-Old Man Trapped Inside Body Of 12-Year-Old Boy Says It Is A Living Hell
“A 25-year-old man who is trapped inside the body of a 12-year-old boy because of a very rare condition says he looks in the mirror and hates what he sees looking back at him.
Tomasz Nadolski, from Olesnica, Poland, suffers from a rare genetic condition known as Fabry disease, which affects his kidneys, heart and skin.
He said: “I am 25 years old and I would like to look like a man of my age. I hate this boy who I see every day in the mirror, because it is not me.”
…
He said doctors initially suspected his symptoms were of a mental illness rather than a physical one and just encouraged him to eat more.
Tomasz said: “My parents were torn. They saw something going on, but they believed the doctors that I was mentally ill and that I should just eat more.”
And he said his family relationships have been badly affected by his condition because they are unable to get past his child-like appearance.”
This is different from a case like that of David Bennent…So, this guy has a lot more going on, than simple delayed growth…It’s causing him a lot of physical suffering…and the fact he cannot eat, must be horrible…
This article raises interesting questions, on the psychological difficulties of living like that…perpetually child like, as your friends grow and advance.
…How does the brain and mind change, even as the body remains primarily the same?…
I’ve sometimes felt that I’d love to be like that…just stuck at ten, eleven or twelve years of age, in a healthy state…And as a MAP, I’ve imagined what it might be like, to meet such an individual…and have a relationship with them.
Unless you are like a David Bennent…cute…a celebrity in demand…where it turns into a net positive…it’s got to be hard on your average person, who experiences this.
01) World’s First Oral Sex Robot Ready To Go After Hitting 500% Of Crowdfunding Target
“The campaign to bring VIECI’s ‘Autoblow AI’ into being has been incredibly successfully, almost raising $250,000 (£200,000), which is 500 percent more than the company’s target. Of course it did.
The machine is the world’s first oral sex simulator that is capable of using artificial intelligence to teach itself to improve its performance – again, of course it is.
“We spent the last three years listening to feedback from our 200,000 Autoblow 2 owners and in response built a new machine that mechanically better replicates the gliding and friction combination of the mouth and hand that men experience during oral sex,” explained the device’s inventor (and former lawyer) Brian Sloan.”
There is lightly censored porn in the linked article.
01) When will we stop fearing sex?
“I’m so fucking tired of this. I’m so tired of dredging up the same arguments, trying desperately to distill my rage in a constructive way. Not only because this affects my livelihood and my friends’ livelihoods, and because it disproportionately hurts POC and marginalized people, but because it’s such an ass-backwards approach to solving the “problem.” We know the “just filter the bad stuff” tactic is impossible to implement at best and completely ineffectual at worst, so why are we still doing it?
Oh right, because sex. That’s how we handle sex in this country. By ridiculing, demonizing, and burying it. By plugging our ears and yelling LA LA LA CAN’T HEAR YOU.
I mean, if sex ed classes literally taught kids that sex can be pleasurable it would already be a dream come true. Adding discussions of consent, or accurate diagrams of the clitoris, would be groundbreaking. But when I think about sex ed in America, sometimes I go further and fantasize about implementing a program that teaches porn literacy. Like, what would the world be like if young people were exposed to queer, feminist porn? Imagine it. Imagine kids learning that sex is an incredible range of activities, not any one act. That communicating during sex isn’t scary. That all bodies and gender expressions are equally valid. That sex toys and safer sex practices are nothing to be ashamed of.
What if we taught young people how to consume porn, rather than acting like they’ll never watch it?
Instead, I’ve watched Instagram ban feminist sex shops and sex workers, heard horror stories of PayPal shutting down accounts. Big payment processors have closed so-called “high risk” accounts of porn performers. YouTube sees fit to hide and demonetize LGBTQ videos. Facebook and Instagram constantly badger me to boost my posts, then refuse to take my dirty dirty money. It’s the same story: spineless corporations puffing themselves up, making a moral statement, acting like they’re protecting our innocent children. Lumping sex tirelessly, lazily, with violence. The passage of SESTA/FOSTA has only allowed these efforts to be more brazen.
As I was writing this, my Starbucks companion Amy said, “it’s like they want to uninvent sex.” Yes. It’s exactly like that.”

01) Episode 123 – A Drink With Dr. Dennis Mckenna: Plants, Ecology, Ayahusca
02) Direct Download [MP3]
“Dr. Dennis Mckenna is one of the most warm hearted human beings on this planet and his work is pioneering the field of Plant Medicine. McKenna received his post-doctorate fellowships in the Lab of Clinical Pharmacology at the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), and in the Department of Neurology at the Stanford University School of Medicine. He recently completed a project, funded by the Stanley Medical Research Institute, to study the Amazonian ethnomedicine for the treatment of schizophrenia and cognitive deficits. This episode was nothing short of hilarious, where Dennis and I both have a beer together and get into the trenches of science and plant ecology. This is an absolutely phenomenal, information-packed episode which you will LOVE!”
“Rick Rosenthal has been a year-round Santa for nearly seven years — maybe no surprise given his jolly demeanor and bushy white beard. What sets this Santa apart is something entirely different: his Orthodox Jewish faith.
Rosenthal has traveled the world for Santa events and has participated in television commercials, parades, trade shows, tree lightings and parties. He even runs a school for aspiring Santas. In a recent interview with StoryCorps, he sits down with his old friend and mentee Adam Roseman to talk about how he discovered his unexpected calling.
…
“Being Santa really does make you a better person because he talks to children, gives them respect; he looks them in the eyes and listens,” Rosenthal says. “And he treats them all the same, whether they are 4 or 94.”
…
“We don’t live in a black and white world,” Rosenthal says. “The world is filled full of beautiful colors. Unfortunately, there are some people who are black and white. As Santa, you have to love people, and you just have to do whatever you can to make their lives better so that they can see the colors of the world.”
“~these kiddy diddlers are very anti-diddling kids~”
I’m sure I could say something about the video…but, I don’t desire watching it again…and frankly, it’s ill informed…and falls back on cliché talking points…strawmen, and such…
I am just so damn tired…of these people…often really young people, who deem themselves instant authority figures upon arrival, and commence to vomiting out bile and slander…
…These people are not about constructive dialogue…In fact, their mode of behavior, is parasitic and poisonous in nature…
…They are an excellent example, of exactly what is wrong with this world…and in many ways, I hate the internet for giving rise to this style of abusive, narcissistic human being…
…people who use the internet to cut others down…as opposed to using their talents for the constructive and the positive.
It’s easy and cheap to do what Shoe0nHead has done here…and it’s also disgraceful, and indefensible.
Leave your own comments about the video, if you care to…
…I’m more intrigued at the spill over in the comments section, where MAPs have somehow been accused of trespassing against a community of kids on YouTube…who refer to their online hobby as MAPs…
We don’t allow outsiders to represent us…because they come up with the most zany things, completely out of left field…Stuff you’ve never even heard of…yet, somehow…it’s still “our fault”…
I believe…this same person has been popping up in threads on Twitter, expressing the same message…threads that were started by people, who are losing their minds over their discovery of the MAP acronym.
02) Multi Animator Projects: Multi Animator Projects
“MAPs have seen a rise in popularity starting from 2012, before then MAPs were very scarce and instead their popularity was replaced with that of MEPs (Multi Editor Projects). MEPs, like MAPs are a joint collaborative effort to create one final video, however instead of using animation created by the individual it feature’s footage from TV shows, anime and sometimes even still images seen in comics or manga. MAPs slowly began to start popping up around 2010 but despite being made with animations they were still referred to as MEPs. The first true MAP was hosted by animator, LadyTeelia. She was the first person to coin the term “MAP” as the animation MEPs were made by animators, not editors; the name caught on quickly and has been used ever since.”
“Minor Attracted Person” was being used well prior to 2010…We were having these discussions with mental health professionals [and amongst ourselves], in 2007/2008…
The term “MAP” has been recognized by mental health professionals, and in various forms of media.
It’s existed [and has been in use] for at least a decade…though, it’s history can be traced back possibly to as much as twenty years ago. The term was used by one of the foundational members of B4U-ACT [Michael Melsheimer], several years before the formation of B4U-ACT.
My point being…Minor Attracted Person [MAP] is a very well established term, with a long, long history in our community.
…Just because you are unaware of this acronym, and it’s historic usage by our community…does not mean that we decided to descend upon the MAP Animator community, and “steal” the acronym of their online hobby.
…Frankly…that’s just ludicrous…
…And yet, I notice there are people there in the comments section, completely willing to spin such a ridiculous story…out of absolutely nothing.
I vaguely recall MEPs on YouTube…though I had no idea they’d evolved into MAPs…
…Speaking of which…it may shock some of these individuals, that some of us MAPs were actually on YouTube well before 2010, using the acronym MAP…
Reality is…we almost certainly were the first ones on YouTube, using the MAP acronym…
The biggest problem we face on YouTube is censorship…Which has no doubt played a role, in why you’re oblivious to the existence of our community…or it’s history on various platforms, including YouTube.
“Minor Attracted Person” is a very old term, in our community…
…It truly is amazing, watching total strangers try to construct the argument…that we “are stealing an established acronym away from kids”…when it is overwhelmingly likely, that none of us have even heard of the MAP Animators.
