* A big thank you to the editor of the East Bay Express — one of their writers had a piece run yesterday that mentioned “Violet Blue” onstage at Exotic Erotic getting naked and whipped — it was *so not* me. I emailed asking for an online clarification because it was coming up in searches, and the paper’s editor wrote me with a promise of a succinct clarification, and he did it right away. It shows me that the East Bay Express values the local sex community, its writers, and has a strong sense of online professionalism — and courtesy. Thank you, thank you, thank you Stephen Buel.
* Mentisworks blog did a tribute — to me! Kind of makes me all blushy and want to hide, except you have to see the awesome photo of Nikki gettin’ all badazz with the ‘BLOG THIS’ knuckle tats! My dreams of a building/recruiting a femmebot blog army are coming true…
* Wired on boobs! I geeked out on this Wired article about silicone implants. Love the pull-links on the right, all Wired-boob-specific articles, carefully culled for your perusal…
* Suicide Bots calls me out! At last night’s Dorkbot, SB did a firey demo of her new flame-spewing, cocktail-igniting robot she’s building to bring to Roboexotica — a “festival for cocktail-robotics” in Vienna this December. And in her post Strange Things with Electricity Last Night in San Francisco she announces that I’ve agreed to be her Lovely Assistant(TM) at the festival! So I’ll be in Vienna for the fest, following the bot around and administering whipped cream to flaming Spanish Coffees. I forsee drinking, whipping, spilled cream and ruffle-butt panties getting dangerously caught in machinery — if all goes as planned. It’s my first trip to Vienna, and I’m quite excited; lots of friends are going to this fest as well — besides Suicide Bots, also Eddie Codel, Jonathan Moore, V. Vale… I’ll blog and video the whole mess, of course! Photo via k0re.
