Morning my pet. Today's breakfast is duck eggs. The yolks were prepared as a crispy treat and the whites were made into an egg white omelet. This pairs really well with an Earl Grey tea or a ginger tea if you don't like caffeine. Of course, I'll feed you a bite if you come to my table and beg me just right. ❤️
Morning my pet. Would you like a bowl? If you crawl towards me and swear you're going to be a good pet today, I'll let you have some. I'll even feed it to you. Would you like that? Tell me something positive about yourself and swear you're going to be good for me, my pet. ❤️😈

"Lola" is a 1970 song by the English rock band the Kinks
It details a romantic encounter between a young man and a possible crossdresser or #transwoman whom he meets in a club
He is confused towards Lola, yet he remains infatuated with her
"Lola" was a top ten hit in the UK and the US and called "the first significantly blatant gay-rock ballad"
Remarkable that this song came out in 1970, when #LGBTQ people were discriminated and criminalised

TRANSFEM BRAIN TRUST: What boob prosthetics would you suggest for transfem who has very little growth or development?
Please reply with suggested products! The girl I'm asking for is willing to spend a medium amount $80 - $100 if it is really worth it and can be worn with a more revealing tank top or other tops. She said she wants to find a full chestplate or full chest prosthetic. If there's something that's more affordable, that would be great too!
