Hee! The author of the page reached out to me to confirm the etymology, so the page'll be updated!

The origin is actually not the word 'Apt' but the Latin "Aptus' meaning "suitable," "fit," or "apt", and its non-standard verb aptos, meaning "to fit," "adapt," "adjust," or "make ready"!

I don't want to jump to conclusions, but the Aptus seems *amazing* for film digitising?

Both of these are Ektar 100 scanned with a Big Scanlight, and a WB + "Convert Negative" in Capture One.

First image is scanned with a Nikon D810, second is the with the Aptus.

Tässä on nyt peseydytty. Tuskin Liina on ollut ikinä suihkussa. Se ei tajunnu koko juttua. Pesin sen Aptuksen vaahtopesulla hellästi kaksi kertaa. Sit laitoin ihoa parantavaa ja kutinaa estävää Aptus geeliä.
Liinalka on ilmeisesti teetetty pentuja putkeen,kun nisät on niin pitkät.

Discounted dildo grab bags, those are a thing we have!

We group toys that are around the same width (examples here are all 'Large / Above Average' width toy bags) and sell 'em at a discount. Helps us clear our shelves of "extras" (toys we made for stock photos, etc.)

A lineup of random dildos. There's an Aptus (tall, realistic dildo), a Fukutako (a stout tentacle dildo), a small Flora (a bud-shaped flower dildo), and a Splendid (thick abstract phallic dildo.) Another assortment of random dildos. There's a Maxime (a realistic dildo with a curve), a small Flora, a Night King (tall, ridge-lined abstract), and an Element 1 (a smooth abstract dildo.) A lineup of assorted dildos. There's a Teuthida (a tentacle), a Maxime, a Calyx (a short, thick dildo with dome-shaped outcroppings), and an Aptus. The last lineup of random dildos.

Friday at last!

From our archives, here's Aptus A-Spot Realistic in luster black, copper, and nola purple; Damn Jav in luster black and pearl pink; Bivius Demon Knot in orchid, mermaid, and lavender; and Aveo Dual Density Realistic in luster black, lavender, and pearl turquoise.
An extra long realistic dildo against a stark white background. The Aptus has an almost arrow-shaped head, a long mostly straight shaft with skin and vein details, and a traditional puck-shaped flared base. A fantasy dildo with an almost hooked triangular head, a curved shaft textured with swoopy bumps, and a flared base with a clitoral nub highlighted at the tip. An ultra-smooth knotted fantasy dildo. The Bivius has an abstractly phallic head with a prominent crown, a shaft that gradually widens out with a knot, and a balls base with small soft decorative horns. A realistic dildo with a large mushroom-shaped head, a curved shaft with thick abstract vein texturing, and a traditional puck-shaped flared base.
