  • In the Season 1 Finale of the Subspace Exploration Project Clay, Calpi, Razzum Frazzum, and Todd go deep on Group Play and the connections we have built. We discuss how Josh Pieters and Mollie Adler completely fail to understand Lily Phillips or the choices she has made.

  • In this episode of the Subspace Exploration Project Todd sits down with Calpi for a proper introduction. Ahead of part two of our talk about age gap dynamics, consent & communication, and the Lily Philips documentary, we realized we should take a moment to introduce our audience to our friend Calpi.


    Calpi is a multi-disciplinary artist and maker who grew up homeless in the Pacific Northwest. They have self published their comic "No Futures", worked diligently with various anti-fascist mutual aid groups, and served the community as a mental health focused organizational coach for high-need and low-income clients.

As we prepare to dive into the Josh Pieters documentary on Only Fans star Lily Phillips, and the Back From the Borderline podcast analysis of the event, Todd talks Group Play and ethical concerns around age gap dynamics. As a Dom with more life experience, how do we best respond to doubt and discomfort from a younger partner? This talk is the first in a series of conversations on consent, autonomy, and our urge to pathologize other people’s sexual expression.

  • Queer, BIPOC, Leftist Community Media


    Nativerse Studios Crowdfunding Campaign Summary

    Out of necessity, Nativerse Studios is raising funds to grow our team and launch several community-based leftist media projects in the coming months.


    Introduction & Background.

    Continuing almost 10 years of Queer, BIPOC, Leftist, community education & conversations, what we aim to do in the first few months of 2025 is more important than ever. From the foundation of the Subspace Exploration Project and the educators, historians, and healthcare professionals we’ve met along the way, we will be launching Hard Left News, the BDSM 101 Project, and partnering with others to find secure, legal ways to host and distribute vital community history, health, communication, and safety resources.


    Over the years we have learned quite a lot about building community, preserving and sharing history, and the barriers capitalism creates to slow and prevent the dissemination of culture & community history. Those barriers that have always existed for some are now about to affect us all. We are preparing to Do what we can to remove those barriers and strengthen communities as best we can. All of this requires community to band together and support each other.


    Reach & Impact

    Nativerse Studios will continue to be an entirely grassroots operation. From websites to media hosting to how we get the word out, if we have to podcast in morse code, we will. Regardless of the level of success of this campaign our team will continue to amplify the voices of the marginalized for as long as we can.


    Risks

    Popular media platforms that we have taken for granted for so long, thinking that they were free (such as Google, Facebook, Twitter, & YouTube) no longer benefit the people in any measurable way. Despite the technological age we live in, to safely publish leftist, antifascist, anticapitalist content comes with significant risks. To help our team continue to do this important work is to help protect the rights & histories of communities that are in harm's way.


    Ways You can Help

    If building and protecting community means everything to you, as it does for us, consider donating to our campaign. If you can’t afford to donate, please share this with anyone that might be able to help. There is a storm coming. Help us equip communities with the information and confidence to weather that storm.

  • In this week’s episode Clay & Todd talk with Author & Educator Lee Harrington about Self Care, meeting the emotional, spiritual, & physical needs of our subs & dominants, and the importance of clear communication. With there being so many interchangeable terms used across the BDSM community, throughout our talk we see exactly how important it is to communicate clearly. The use of highly specific language, and tools for when we are overwhelmed & have trouble articulating our physical & emotional states help us to reduce risk, and make sure that OUR needs, and the needs of our partners, are met - in our play and our dynamics.
