This essay is part of a series in which I compare the ideas of philosophers on the subject of Aesthetics.

It's the reality British citizens face in an effort to protect children from pornography. Since I can't even synch my nudes with the cloud, I have no idea how Britain intends to safeguard the privacy of the millions of users on pornhub. But there are enough articles about why that won't work.

Wealth dies, kinsmen die,
A man himself must likewise die;
But one thing I know which never dies -
The verdict on each man dead.

CHAPTER 1: DANGLE
He pushed through the crowd of traders, his scuffed boots kicking up dust from the arid ground as he passed by market stalls selling strange, alien fruits and scrap parts. The colorful tarps that shielded the merchants from the sun surrounded him on both sides of the street, prefab buildings had been erected to form a rudimentary town whos...

It's me Sarah. The music is pounding in the background; my heart is ready to be alive again! That mini-dress still looks smart-alecky in the closet; it still makes me feel hot. But it also seems rather ...passive? demure? The moonlight has returned, and there's a new suite on the bed. It will give me more room to move, and I might want to.

It wasn't often she was permitted, let alone invited, to watch television with her mistress, but on this day Madam Colette granted Lisa the privilege of kneeling in front of the screen—naked as always, except for her slave-collar, as clothes were such an unnecessary luxury—while her mistress searched for the...

Vidya had been there when Captain DuPont -- for reasons that still baffled her -- split the research team into two divisions.
