ErosBlog Bacchus<p>Pedantic side note about the Trump sucking Musk's toe's fake that played in the HUD building the other day. I've seen people on here, and apparently the BlueSky moderators (briefly), claiming it was sexually explicit.</p><p>It's literally not. Do you see genitals? I don't see any genitals.</p><p>It's sexually IMPLICIT.</p><p>That's why it works as mockery. It's a superficially non-sexual act (toe sucking) from which we infer a kinky sexual relationship. </p><p><a href="https://www.erosblog.com/2025/02/24/sucking-the-kings-toes/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">erosblog.com/2025/02/24/suckin</span><span class="invisible">g-the-kings-toes/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://kinkyelephant.com/tags/Pedantry" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pedantry</span></a> <a href="https://kinkyelephant.com/tags/Pornocalypse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pornocalypse</span></a></p>
