Making Paper Making paper can be a fun and creative process. Here's a basic guide: Materials:
1 cup of water 2 cups of pulp (you can use cotton linters, old cotton clothing, or even recycled paper) A blender or similar device to blend the pulp A large bowl or container A mold and deckle (you can buy these or make your own) A sponge or spray bottle Iron and ironing board
Steps:
Prepare Your Pulp: Soak your pulp material in water for several hours or overnight. This helps to soften the fibers. Blend the Pulp: Blend the soaked pulp with water in a blender until it's broken down into a mushy consistency. Transfer it to a bowl and add more water to achieve a thin, soupy consistency. Create the Paper: Place your mold and deckle into the bowl of pulp. Slowly lift them out, allowing water to drain through the deckle, which acts as a sieve, leaving a thin layer of pulp on the mold. Press and Dry: Carefully remove the paper from the mold and deckle. You can press it using a brayer or a heavy object to remove more water. Then, lay it flat to dry. You can speed up the drying process by using a fan or applying heat with an iron. queer bdscr
Queer BDSM If you're looking for information or discussion on queer BDSM:
Queer BDSM refers to practices within the BDSM community that are engaged in by LGBTQ+ individuals. BDSM is a broad term that encompasses a variety of sexual and non-sexual activities involving power exchange, restraint, and/or pain. Resources: There are numerous resources, communities, and educational materials available online and in-person for those interested in exploring BDSM in a healthy, consensual manner. It's crucial to approach any BDSM activity with a strong emphasis on consent, safety, and communication.
Note: This term is not yet a mainstream acronym but is used within specific online queer, disabled, and kink-aware communities. The following guide synthesizes community-driven definitions. Making Paper Making paper can be a fun
Guide to Understanding “Queer BDSCR” 1. Breaking Down the Acronym
Queer – An umbrella term for sexual orientations, gender identities, and relationship structures outside cis-heteronormativity. Here, it also signals a rejection of assimilationist norms. B – Bondage (restraint via ropes, cuffs, etc.) D – Discipline / Dominance (behavioral control; power exchange) S – Sadism / Submission (depending on context; giving/receiving intense sensation or control) C – Consensual / Care (emphasizing negotiated consent + disability care practices) R – Resilience / Recovery / Rest (disability-adapted practices, spoon theory integration)
BDSCR reworks the traditional “BDSM” acronym by placing Care and Rest/Recovery as central pillars, not afterthoughts. Blend the Pulp: Blend the soaked pulp with
2. Why “Queer BDSCR” Exists Traditional BDSM spaces often assume able bodies, uninterrupted stamina, neurotypical communication, and no chronic pain. Queer BDSCR was coined (mostly via Tumblr, Discord, and zines) to address:
Spoon theory in kink – People with chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, POTS, etc., may only have a few “spoons” of energy. A scene must be paced, rest breaks built in, and aftercare prioritized over endurance. Neurodivergent kink – Autistic, ADHD, or OCD practitioners may need explicit scripts, sensory-friendly tools (e.g., soft rope, no loud snaps), and direct communication without reading “subtle cues.” Disability-adapted gear – Using mobility aids as bondage anchors, padding for joint issues, or voice-activated safewords for non-verbal episodes. Anti-assimilation – Rejecting “safe, sane, consensual” (SSC) as the only model; favoring RACK (Risk-Aware Consensual Kink) or PRICK (Personal Responsibility Informed Consensual Kink) with disability accommodations.
