any eroticist living in the present tense is perceived as intense

when i was a kid, i thought adults must have everything figured out but it turns out adults don’t exist. everyone’s a time-traveling child. if you can remember this, it will save you so much heartache.

falling in love triggers instincts of self-preservation because erotic love is intent on alchemizing the psyche into more wholeness. identity then must change. if their values don’t include transformation, if they believe their ego is their entire psyche, they’re too rigid for erotic love.

your desires will feel as disruptive as your identity feels fixed. desire isn’t the problem. it’s your blind devotion to your current idea of yourself that makes you an enemy to what you truly want.

every time someone tries to disempower me, i open one more biblically accurate eye of an angel

enjoying your desire without grasping for climax is what makes you erotic

Nairy Fstukh @softmoonrose.bsky.social · Feb 14

your eroticism is in cultivating qualities in yourself that you find sexy in others

erotic as in what consumes me must also nourish me

you keep picking partners who are projects because your creativity is bored

erotic as in i do not mistake intensity for intimacy

Nairy Fstukh @softmoonrose.bsky.social · Feb 9

people often ask me how to re-eroticize their lives and the answer is always engaging in taboo creativity. it’s not easy because being at your psychic edge has a tint of destruction to it. but this is it. the rest is up to how tired you are of your own story which says you can’t tolerate discomfort.

being erotic is knowing the world is tasting and enjoying the real you they spit out the first time

you ever look at someone and feel their demon reach out to you for an excorcism or nah

Nairy Fstukh @softmoonrose.bsky.social · Feb 5

a hot and cold relationship with your own desire, where it’s either overwhelming or abandoned, attracts the same level of erotic intelligence in others

periodic erotic reminder: your values are evidenced by how you spend your time and money. fantasizing about a value makes it aspirational, not lived.

it’s projecting your psyche into an imagined knowing of someone else's perception of you. it’s worse than a fool's. errand. it’s wasting a life. (2/2)

Nairy Fstukh @softmoonrose.bsky.social · Feb 3

people see you as you see yourself through noticing your attitude toward yourself. they aren't seeing what you try to manage them into seeing. believing they are is placing your center in fictional places, at the cost of orbiting your own erotic nature. (1/2)

RIP persephone you would’ve loved 2025

to turn off your eroticism, seek only attention

i’m like if aphrodite and hades had a baby girl

those who live erotically are in an alchemical relationship with being here now. they appear magnetically charged because they’re unconditionally present.

every eroticist is an alchemist willing to be created by showing up to their current quality of time
