FUCK This is GREAT! Attention is the beginning of devotion.
" I’d rather read a thousand promises and desires into these small seductions than agonise over a notification." That slow BURN... leading to presence. yep... this the one fr
I love the emotional side of seduction and how it can manifest physically.
Not only does a screen-obsessed culture make us miss out on true seduction and connection-building, but also taking in our surroundings in general.
The amount of people on the streets of NYC I see walking while looking at their phone is a bit astounding. Personally I’m scared of being hit by e-bikes, that alone is enough to make me not do it.
ugh rereading the Alex Turner letter for the first time in years and the other examples you used made me smile and blush! beautifully written and so true. will be revisiting this soon 🫡
This is amazing. I love your use of examples and how well you incorporate them into your words and make your thought process flow. Amazing opening and ending. I hope to write like this one day!
Lovely piece. How can we change the way things are and be open to seductive moments when increasingly those around us aren't? Or must we always be the instigator?
that scene in « the piano »where harvey keitel fingers a hole in holly hunter’s thick stockings is one of the most seductive acts ever. oh, and the refrigerator scene in « 9 1/2 weeks »
Beautifully written! This takes me back to a Tumblr post/poem I made back in the day, all about the moment before a first kiss. I am also a follower of that holy state of being 🙌

The “im here” text oooooh!!!
“I’m kind of always thinking about kissing you” pretty much stopped me dead in my tracks !!! Stunning

this post epitomises the push and pull of seduction- i am blown away by how much i agree with every sentiment on display here.
"But kissing — or the moment just before distance turns into kissing — is, I think, the only altar at which I’d choose to sacrifice my breath."
OMG I want to screaaaaam💙💙💙
This is actually amazing! So well written
