Exploitation - Blog Posts
Today’s society is no longer Foucault’s disciplinary world of hospitals, madhouses, prisons, barracks, and factories. It has long been replaced by another regime, namely a society of fitness studios, office towers, banks, airports, shopping malls, and genetic laboratories. The society of the 21st century is no longer disciplinary, but a society of the performance. Nor are its inhabitants called ‘subjects of obedience’, but ‘subjects of performance’. These subjects are entrepreneurs of themselves.
Excess work and performance escalate into auto-exploitation. This is much more effective than the exploitation by the others, because it is accompanied by a feeling of freedom. The exploiter is the same exploited. Victim and executioner can no longer differentiate. This self-referentiality generates a paradoxical freedom, which, because of the structures of obligation immanent to it, becomes violence […] In this society of obligation, each one carries with him his forced labor field.
What proves problematic is not individual competition per se, but rather its self-referentiality, which escalates into absolute competition. That is, the achievement-subject competes with itself; it succumbs to the destructive compulsion to outdo itself over and over, to jump over its own shadow. This self-constraint, which poses as freedom, has deadly results..
No-longer-being-able-to-be-able leads to destructive self-reproach and auto-aggression. The achievement-subject finds itself fighting with itself. The depressive has been wounded by internalized war. Depression is the sickness of a society that suffers from excessive positivity. It reflects a humanity waging war on itself.
Today, everyone is an auto-exploiting labourer in his or her own enterprise. People are now master and slave in one. Even class struggle has transformed into an inner struggle against oneself.

kinky wife
She had no idea that she liked women until she got kissed a few years ago, now she makes out with some truly beautiful women. Having a strong relationship opens doors and opportunities for us both. She always comes first, and second and third 😉
Sex is definitely healthier and more enjoyable
Sex is a lot like candy. You want a lot of it. And in different flavours and variations. And when you’re finished, you soon start craving it again.
Stacy proves this point every time we go out
No it doesn't. She is all sexy! ❤️
Absolute truth
Opportunities missed. Live your life with passion. Live your life with purpose.

Happy Campers…
It’s a fact that Lesbians have been campers for decades… The trend actually began in the 1950’s when husbands took their wives camping… and then proceeded to ignore them in favor of fishing… fire building… beer drinking…
Camping wives needs to find something to do that felt natural in nature…
So men… it’s really all on you…
So true!
Indeed they are...🥰
Honey, you are way off the mark!
