RE: Out of their Element
@littlest-lily Ah, this was much-needed comfort food. He has no soul who could refuse “Couch cuddles?”
Brave, good faith efforts on both their parts. Aiden’s naïveté regarding police was more than made up for by his fulsome declaration. “I like you this way” is such a loaded statement; I’m glad they both have the patience and trust to explore it fully.
Looking forward to meeting the woman who would dare marry Diego.

RE: SW in Gen V
@littlest-lily Be warned: The Boys is notorious for graphic violence and explicit sex, and judging from the trailer we can expect the same from Gen V.

There’s a lot of wood and string, with globs of stabilizing silicone clay at the bottom, but then at the top I now notice several tiny wheels of some kind. I lean in, eyes widening. “Holy crap, are those pulleys?”

RE: SW in Gen V
@Mrgoblinging7 I have complicated thoughts and feelings about this. My formative years occurred before the Internet, so I thought I was the only size perv on the planet. Mainstream size content was all I had. I developed a keen sense for determining what sort of TV shows, movies, books, and comics might feature size content, and how likely such content might contain risqué hints. The best you could realistically hope for was a lingering handheld, a little unaware contact, or some lewd innuendo. Since no one acknowledged size as a fetish, any such scenario would most likely occur in a humorous or horrific context. Cartoons in adult magazines were the best bet, but even there it was very slim pickings.
The other aspect of being reliant on mainstream size content was knowing that if a given TV show or comic series ever did feature a size scenario, it would almost certainly be the last time it did, because the normies would become bored if the show kept returning to the size well. This made those rare size episodes even more fraught, as I knew this was the only chance I might ever get to see, say, a tiny Mork in the same frame with a normal-sized Mindy or a shrunken Diana Rigg crawling about on a giant desktop. Children’s shows were more frequent in their use of size themes because they didn’t expect their audiences either to remember the last time or to care if they repeated themselves, but they were also much less likely to even hint at sizey sexytimes.
In recent decades, however, the Internet has revealed us size pervs to each other and, so-very-slightly, to popular culture. There’s also simply more entertainment content out there (including previously-inaccessible foreign sources), and size content has increased commensurately. There are therefore many more opportunities to encounter mainstream size content, and just as many opportunities for it to be more embarrassing than arousing.
Perhaps because I “imprinted” on mainstream size content, I am still often satisfied when a size encounter keeps the sexual possibilities as subtext. As the volume of size content grows and special effects become cheaper, there will always be opportunities for lascivious leering, indecent proposals, and inappropriate handling. It’s a fine line for mainstream content producers to walk, and I share the Goblin King’s worry that explicit sizey sexytimes can come across as mockery.
The Boys surprised me with Termite. They retconned his character to include a throwaway sight gag from the first season opener, and I was certain that the big splash he made in the third season opener would be the last we would see of him. That they brought him back for “Herogasm” made me worry that either a) mainstream fans would (justly) complain that the show was running out of ideas or b) they were making fun of size pervs. Fortunately, his appearance was just decorative and didn’t derail the plot.
This was also a worry with Downsizing. An R-rated movie from a director with a history of shooting comical nude scenes had the potential to be either miraculous or catastrophic in its presentation of size sexytimes. An early draft of the screenplay had a brief sex scene between different-size characters, mostly off-screen but leaving no doubt about what was happening. I suppose we should be grateful that the finished film ignored the possibilities of giant-tiny sex altogether.

RE: Out of their Element
@littlest-lily So you know all of us were screaming like a horror movie audience, “Don’t get off the nightstand!”
Of course it’s Camila.
I had to pause several times after reading those words, and my pulse still hasn’t returned to resting.
Am I a bad person for wanting some fanart of Camila sneering at Evie?
I’ll be in my bunk.

RE: Giant Bane
@tiny-ivy Oh yeah. Earlier in the season they showed Dr. Psycho (a dwarf) as having mind-controlled Giganta into marrying him (not at all canon). In a subsequent episode, Poison Ivy casually inquires “how did this work…sexually” (Psycho’s reply: “Not great!”).
Note that the Giganta eps had different writers than the ep with the Giant Ivy/vore gag. That they did all this in the first season demonstrates a boldness that kink-smugglers didn’t used to have.

RE: I hate my job...
Replying to u/PuddingGremlin_9k
From u/LikeWipingAMarkerThank you THANK YOU for keeping us updated. I follow this sub both for the drama and because I have a professional interest: I’m in Employment Law. I must first caution you not to rely on my statements without first consulting your local statutes and probably a local lawyer. That said, I am very happy that you escaped that toxic situation at the regional branch office. That sounded like a nightmare! Just what you mentioned in your post constituted more than sufficient grounds for a claim of discriminatory size harassment. Now that you have management looking out for you, I would not recommend commencing an action against the company.
I do, however, want to advise you against pursuing a relationship with your new supervisor or even allowing the appearance of such a relationship to become common knowledge. Even without the difference in your sizes, the power that the owner of the company wields over the entire workplace both calls your capacity to consent into question as well as invites accusations of favoritism. That the company owner has made it known that he making Tiny-accommodation a priority as well as personally intervening in business operations on your behalf only focuses attention on you and your working relationship with the owner. Your boss has wandered into a minefield of liability.
I have colleagues at the UN Human Rights Council who may be able to give you more specific and up-to-date advice. Visit the link below to see a list of countries and their respective UN contacts from the Special Rapporteur on the human rights of tinies.
