by Sir Apocalypse This is Not a rule but just my experience: When representing your personal look while wearing your own personal level of leather gear. Be it "High Cow", "Leather Daddy", "submissive boi", Master/slave", "Sir/boi" or any level of Leatherman looking your best from head to toe should start with your facial hair especially your beard game. Just like the representation of your specific gear you should know how your facial hair represent your facial Leatherman per

by Annonymous A true Dom doesn't just take control of you or try to order you around. That's not Dominance, that's bullying. A true Dom is ALWAYS respectful, will guide you, instruct you, encourage you, help you, and drive you to reach your full potential. Not in the bedroom, in LIFE. A true Dom will be the most supportive person you've ever met. They'll challenge you and teach you things about yourself you never knew. They'll bring out the very best in you.

Photo courtesy of Helping Hands, Open Hearts Today, the universe placed us in a position of service that challenged our integrity, empathy, and endurance. Originally slated for an air conditioned space inside one of the shelters, we were informed that we would no longer be able to use that area. We exited the building with grace and helped pack up the items that had already been set out. At that point, Rosalind of Helping Hands, Open Hearts apologized for the scheduling snafu

Food, Fun, Fellowship, & Fraternity What an experience. We had an incredible time in Houston this weekend. Friday night was all about bonding. Game night and fellowship with guests from around the region made for the perfect start to the weekend. Old school spades took over the kitchen island while Uno No Mercy battles were happening in the dining room. And of course, libations were flowing all around. Saturday afternoon, at the reasonable hour of noon, we kicked off the firs

A Road Trip, Real Connections, and the Culture Behind the Movement Oklahoma City Expansion Trip: Business Meets Community Today we hit the road to Oklahoma City with a clear objective: expansion. Not just into new territory, but into the right territory. This trip was about identifying alignment. Meeting people who understand the work. Exploring whether Oklahoma City holds space for what we’re building and how we show up in it. The conversations were intentional. Not surface-

Busy month! We started by participating in the Hexes and HOS fundraiser by the DFW Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence. Exzo and Colossus represented us in the underwear auction. Next up was Kinky Karaoke night at Liquid Zoo. Thank you to the staff for their ongoing hospitality to OLS. Next we had our monthly community service with Helping Hands, Open Hearts in providing snacks, hygiene kits, and limited clothing articles. Check out helpinghandsopenhears.com for more information

The Men of ONYX Lone Star pitched in to help Helping Hands, Open Hearts, a local charity in Dallas that works with the unhoused. We were one of many groups out to build bags filled with necessities which we then attached to a guardrail along the sidewalk making them available to anyone who needed them. The Wall of Love It is a simple concept with an enormous impact. We place bags out for our friends, which include snacks, water, hygiene items, clothing, and toiletries. Wall

Another Lone Star Cowboy Bar Night is officially in the books for 2026. Once again, it began at The Round-Up Saloon, widely regarded as one of the largest and most iconic LGBTQ country-western dance halls in the nation. This year, we made a deliberate shift. In an effort to better connect with our guests and potential future brothers, we moved our start time earlier than the traditional 10:00 p.m. kickoff. Opening the evening at 7:00 p.m. proved to be exactly the right call.

Brothers and Brunch Our first Brothers and Brunch was a success. While we ran into a few location challenges, we adapted quickly, updated the event details, and made our way to a new spot without missing a beat. Thank you to everyone who was able to join us. The gathering did exactly what it was meant to do: give us space to connect and get to know one another better. Did you know that Colossus and Ravenous were both college cheerleaders? We thought Bedivere had been abducted
