Comic Review: Sworn (C. J. Evans and Silvano)

Hello over there, pornies! I come today to speak a little about Sworn, by C. J. Evans and Silvano, published by Class Comics, a comic I’m in a love-hate relationship with since the first time I read it.
Calais (Kevin) and Slammer (Patrick) are supposed to be sworn (had to say it) enemies, they are part of the good and bad guys of the story respectively, but after their first encounter and an unexpected result, these guys connect in a way they cannot understand and that shakes Kevin’s world.
This is such a sweet story I cannot help but read it now and then. I like the Romeo-and-Juliet concept, how things evolve so naturally and end so hot. Some could argue that the creators confuse romance with sexual attraction, but for me this is one of those cases when both things bled together perfectly.
There is a bit of coming-of-age and self-discovery included that make it all sweeter and adorable if you forget about the sex for a minute (I know it’s hard, but try). I don’t think there is a comic or a manga that uses these ideas in so naturally, as it is not uncomfortable when we see the characters discovering themselves.

Despite the designs for Kevin and Patrick are a bit clichΓ©, the contrast it creates when they start to get along is impressive. Certain scenes don’t look this good, and the creators knew it would be like that, hence the length of this scene. Thank you, guys, thank you. I’m not a fan of hairy guys, but I’ll gladly become Patrick if the Gods give me a Kevin.
The bad news are that there is only one issue published so far. WTF, Class Comics?! If I knew how to draw or had an artist interested, I would start working on a FanMade sequel (wink, wink, if there’s any aspiring artist there, here’s an aspiring writer, wink, wink). I don’t understand what happened with this, but if anyone knows something, let me know!

Kinky regards, K!

Is "Dark" always "Bad"?

"Darkness and evil are almost always used as synonyms."
Hi pornies! Are you feeling good today?
People usually have a clear difference between what good and bad are depending on how much harm the actions/thoughts do, yet there a little more confusing case when it comes to what is light and what is dark. The most common thing is to understand good and light and bad as dark, but that’s pretty much not the case.
It is always easier and most comfortable to work with the light “good” side of things. As humans we trust what we know, what we understand, it is part of our nature to feel in control of the situation, and so we fear that which is unknown, that which we ignore, that which is in the dark. Not surprising that darkness and evil are almost always used as synonyms.
I will give an example that illustrates the point just perfectly: Think of a pregnant woman, about to give birth to a new child, a human being that will come to life, a precious miracle we all celebrate whenever it happens. I can swear that there is no light in her womb.
"A witch ought never to be frightened in the darkest forest". Terry Pratchett
The night serves as another example. It is not bad, certainly not evil. Nor is the Moon, which only rises at night. Should I remind everyone that endless artists (I have to include myself) have been inspired by both?
It is not a lie that dark magic is something to be cautious with, wilder, dangerous if you are not cautious, but again, what is free danger if you don’t prepare? As long as you know what you are doing, what for, how, with what or who, and take all the precautions, why should you fear the dark?
Not long ago, I read a quote by Terry Pratchett that said that "a witch ought never to be frightened in the darkest forest", for they were the most fearsome thing that lived in there once, and as witches, we can control the energies, it is part of us. If we can work with the light for good, so we can do with the darkness.

Kinky regards, K!

How I honor my ancestors

"To know our ancestry is great, but we have to know and accept as well that we are not those people."
Hey there!
I wanted to share with you guys some thoughts I have about honoring our ancestors. Some of you may have thought about it already, but for those who haven’t, there’s an important aspect of this part of my spirituality that could be of use for you as well.
To know our ancestry is great. We all deserve the right to know where we come from, and honoring those roots could be a total experience, but we have to know and accept as well that we are not those people and, therefore, that we have total freedom on our choices.
Let’s take for example my case: A bisexual, male witch that comes from a traditional family, my Beloved Dead. I honestly doubt my ancestor would have accepted me as part of their family if they had met me in their time, but that doesn’t mean I do not appreciate their memory: It is because they came before that I am here.
Gerald Brosseau Gardner (1884 - 1964)
The same applies to my ancestors of choice, the Mighty Dead. For example, I’ve learned a lot from Wicca, but, surprise, Gerald Gardner was a homophobic. He stated that LGBT people couldn’t be Wiccan because they do not represent the duality of the Goddess and God: Wicca is about a Goddess and a God who are lovers. However, Wicca has changed, and I feel thankful for it, regardless of the original thoughts of its founder.
My ancestral work could be summarized in three sentences: Celebrate their good choices, forgive their mistakes and learn from their actions. They were humans just like me, just like you, just like any of us. They had the good and bad decisions, good and bad beliefs. You simply need to internalize what you can learn from them, accepting all of their sides and accepting you will do it differently.
What about you? How do you honor your ancestors? Any thoughts you would like to share? I’m still learning about this and constructive comments are welcome!

Kinky regards, K!

PS: In case you’re wondering, the classification of Beloved Dead and Mighty Dead comes from “The Witch’s Book ofSpirits”, by Devin Hunter.

Magic Vs. Magick

"I don’t think we as witches need a word to specify we are speaking about magic."
Hi you, reader.
There is an issue that has bothered me a lot, and I mean a lot, when it comes to magic, or magick, since I first saw it and tried to understand it. I don’t mean to show off or to attack anyone (maybe the issue could offend someone, you never know), but after almost five years practicing, reading, learning and watching videos (at my own pace, truth be told), I still haven’t found a reason for this division to exist.
It doesn’t matter where I look at or who explains it, everyone who uses the term magick gives the same response: It is a way to difference between the Craft and the stage acts performed by illusionists. To be completely honest about this subject: this makes no sense at all to me.
"It makes no sense to use such a separation
if you are not using Crowley’s teachings."

I don’t think we as witches need a word to specify we are speaking about magic, witchcraft, the Craft, or any other similar terms we could include, and it always hurts my eyes to see this written in great books and articles that I enjoy and learn from.
As far as I have seen, magick was a word introduced by Aleister Crowley for Thelema, the belief system he created. I remember reading the meaning behind it, an actual reason for the K to be included in this context, but since I am not a Thelemic witch and don’t feel an honest interest towards Crowley, I forgot it.
A Celtic Wiccan witch said in her web that it makes no sense to use such a separation if you are not using Crowley’s teachings in your witchcraft, and I totally agree with this. As a writer, I’m connected with my words, mostly those I write, they must reflect my exact intention and desire, and having a term that has no relation with me feels wrong, completely wrong.
Just like this same witch said, it seems like these people are trying to convince themselves that what they do, what we do, is not illusionism. Despite this word does not deny the usefulness of books and articles on subjects I’m interested in, I would like them all even more if they simply used magic.
What do you think about this, pornies? Give a thought, read a little on the subject or express how you feel about this subject. I always like to exchange as long as both parts remain respectful to each other!

Kinky regards, K!

Necromancy: What is it and why am I interested in it?

πŸ’€πŸ’€πŸ’€
Hi pornies! I hope you’re feeling great today! :3
I want to explain a little a topic I’m very interested in and that I’m studying since a while. I think sometimes we get the wrong image about it and, hopefully, this could be a little help for those who frown at the mention of the word Necromancy.
In short, Necromancy is contacting the deceased as a divination method. It is about stablishing a connection between you and the dead to get some answers, always in a respectful and serious manner.
Maybe the most popular method to do is the infamous Ouija board, which didn’t give me a very good experience, to be honest. I’ve seen that there are some ways of using it with no risk, but I’m not excited about it. Maybe in the future, just maybe, but right now, I’m not using it.
C ya, buddy. πŸ’—
However, there is a method I tried and gave me nice results, which is using tarot cards. I haven’t had the chance to try it several times, but the couple of readings I did were pretty good and I felt better than with that Ouija-from-Hell.
Now, why do I like it? Is there any reason to study it? For me, it is a way of getting answers in a more understandable language. Deities, faeries, angels, whatever you include in your practice, they are not mortal beings, they do not speak the same language most of the time, but a ghost? Someone who was here and now is not? They clearly do.
You can easily say that there is no better answer than that of the creators, the Gods, the Divine, the Cosmos, but I think of them, the act of asking them something, as a final resource. Call me an idiot, but I guess they have things more important than tell me, for example, if I should take or not a job.
I see it this way: If there are the Gods, the Elementals, the faeries, the spirits of place, the dead, and more beings, each of them should have something they can help you. Why should you speak to the president every single time when there’s a friend who can give you a hand? Keep the president for really important things.
And, to be honest, the idea of talking to the dead is just awesome! Having contact with faeries, elementals, and the dead is something I really enjoy, and I want to master those talents, but right now, I’m focused on the deceased.
As a final word, I’ll leave you two videos I really, really like about Necromancy. The first one is from Samantha Valens, who speaks about the basics on this topic, and the second is from Ashera Star Goddess. The two taught me a lot about it and could be of use if you like to know more about the topic.

Kinky regards, K!
PS: If you know about a book or Youtube channel/video on the topic, leave it in the comments!

What is Yaoi?

Oh yeah, me likes! 😈
Hey there! How are you pornies feeling today? I have a small class for you in case you don't know about this topic. Haveyou heard the word yaoi? Know nothing about it? Then keep reading. ^^
Yaoi is a Japanese word for gay manga and anime about two boys (sometimes more, Oh my...) falling in love or (even better) having sex. Usually, yaoi is directed for a female public, while Bara is a term for this same genre directed at male audiences, but this second one is also used when both boys or men have muscles and look so leather-daddy-ish; you can also expect yaoi to be created by women and bara by men.
Yup, pretty much the norm. πŸ‘€
The word in itself means "Yama nashi, ochi nashi, imi nashi," or No peak (climax), no fall (punch line/denouement), no meaning, in English. Not that exciting, don't you think? However, nowadays we don't care that much about it and know there are really good plots in the yaoi genre.
Now, you should not confuse Yaoi with Boys love. They are two different things. The first reason is for how the couple works: In Yaoi, we have a seme and an uke, with the seme being active and confident, and the uke passive and shy; these rules don't apply for BL in most of the cases.
You can also find some subgenres in Yaoi. We know about bara already, but there is also Shotacon, which involves kids and teens, Male Futanari, for a man with both penis and vagina, and sooooometimes you may find Cuntboy (don't really like that term, tbh,) for a man with only a vagina. Oh, Futanari is a term for girls with penis, you also have that one, although they don't tend to be used on yaoi.
A little more about Seme & Uke: πŸ‘‰πŸ‘Œ
So, should you expect yaoi on this blog? DUUUH! Of course! I'm more a fan of BL, and I certainly tend to look for comics and mangas with more story, not only sex (but I'm not complaining, hehe,) but yeah, maybe you'll get more gay comics than yaoi, but both will be present in this blog.
Well, I hope this helped a little. You can always go to Wikipedia and read more about this, but in general terms, this is what you will find. I'll see you in the next entry, pornies!

​Kinky regards,​ ​K​!

PS: You may need to add "hardcore" for explicit sex on yaoi stories. You're welcome, pornies.

PSS: There's going to be Shota as well, hehe.

K says hi!

Hello everyone! I think it was about time I did this little space, don't you think?
For those of you who don't know me (how dare you?), my name is Kyler B. Warhol, you can call me K if you prefer, or Mr. Warhol, or Ky, or whatever the fuck you like, really! I'm not gonna explain who I am here, there's a page for that already.
What I do wanna do is to welcome you to this pretty, little, humble home I just built, aint it pretty? It clearly needs some redecorating, but I think a simple look is good, at least for now.
Since Instagram deleted my posts so many times and I'm sick of censoring them, I decided that it was enough. With so many options on the internet to have a free website I was a moron not to take one.
From now on, I'll be posting my reviews in here, and some times, now and then, when the stars and planets align (Okay, I'm just exaggerating), I'll talk about movies, series, witchcraft, and whatever else I can think about, but most of the times, you'll find a good amount of gay porn comics in this place I have.
Have a sit, take your pants off, have the lube ready and wait for the next entry. This is just the beginning, babe!

Kinky regards, K!
