Things were certainly interesting last night at the second of our 7 Deadly Sessions series: Greed.
Lack of a bartender for the first half made us all very hot and thirsty, and the heat proved a bit too greedy for Ms. Nymph Suicide. The above shot was the only one taken before she had to take her leave from stage for a much needed watery respite. Proving the ever trooper {and greedy herself for wanting to stay and watch naked lovelies}, she took over timing duties for This Madame so I could join Skellington and Stella Semiautomatic {herself proving that wearing furs in a room where the AC is delayed causes one to sweat}. We’re grateful that The Great Hall was finally able to sort out their bar and air flow.
Wrapped in gold chain, Skellington heated things up for Act II, when Stella retured having been touched by the golden finger of our MUA, Larissa Palaszczuk of Blonde Moxie Makeup. Our final act saw the golden one deliciously wound by the covetous hands of Skellington and myself in lengths of black chain. And a little drool never hurt anyone.
Thanks to all the came out. Photos {by the lovely Susie Caboose}, Drawings {send ‘em our way!} and Playlist will be posted throughout the week.
We look forward to seeing you next month for Sloth.
{UPDATE: Happy International Women’s Day. Yes, we’re more than just eye candy. The Calendar has officially launched, and is now available for print purchase or free download on Maryam Namazie’s site. Help support free expression: join the scream.}
I’m honoured to be part of a project called Nude Photo Revolutionaries.
In November of 2011, young Egyptian blogger Aliaa Elmahdy posted a nude photo of herself, and tweeted it out to the world under the hashtag, #NudePhotoRevolutionary:
“My name is Aliaa Elmahdy. I post under my real name #NudePhotoRevolutionary”
This was in protest to being veiled in a country ‘where women are nothing but sex objects harassed on a daily basis by men who know nothing about sex or the importance of a woman’. Aliaa’s words are
“screams against a society of violence, racism, sexism, sexual harassment and hypocrisy’.
Sparking outrage in the East, Elmahdy’s statement was both adored and reviled. London-based Iranian writer & human rights activist Maryam Namazie launched the Nude Photo Revolutionary project, a calendar that celebrates free expression. Along with designing the calendar {which will officially launch next week on International Women’s Day}, I’m also one of the submissions.
Styled and shot by Toronto-based Max+Gna, a sunny afternoon in Parkdale yielded some pretty nice photos. My final shot will be revealed, along with 12 other women from around the world, next week. I will post further links with details & calendar purchase info when they become available.
We continue on our sinful journey with the second of our 7 Deadly Sessions. Join us for Greed.
Too much want & desire leaves you hungry for even more, and TKS will help you satiate those such desires with luxury and opulence.
Come draw Stella Semiautomatic, Nymph Suicide and Skellington for 3 hours of some fairly extravagant sinning.

We celebrated V Day in true TKS style with our first of 7 Deadly Sessions: Lust. We believe there weren’t many better ways to spend this Saintly day.
Jennifer Rose warmed up our stage as a lonely barfly, looking for an unsuspecting date. Upon being picked by Sid Licious, Ms. Rose was taken to the closest motel, where she quickly turned the tables. Joined by the motel’s owner and dominatrice, Betty Quirk, Sid Licious submitted to her night of chained debauchery, complete with rope designed by TKS HeadRigger, JP Robichaud.
We extend our deepest thanks for spending your Hallmark Holiday with us, warming up the room to quite steamy limits. We trust you enjoyed yourselves, and hopefully we sent you home with the filthiest of thoughts. Lust works in the most marvellous of ways.
Stay tuned throughout the week as we post Photos, Playlist, and your Drawings {send ‘em our way!} in our TMATNB Galleries.
