Bondage for the rest of us
New podcast — but only you can decide if energy drinks and podcasting and super-hot talk about getitng tied up and fucked are a lethal combination… or not. Text: Tie me up? How about bondage and kink for the rest of us…! You don’t need to know complicated knots or BDSM lingo to have a…
My friends are the only family I need
Thomas wrote about me, and I didn’t even know. I found some healing to have my deceitful post read and understood. If you care to, read: I am a very bad man.
Macgasm
If I was a smoker, I’d have a cigarette right now. Macworld was exciting: I saw the new 1″ PowerMacPro laptops, the uber-fast iMacs (both with built-in iSight). But aside from all the glitz, bling, booths that wouldn’t let me take photos, pseudo-booth–babes, cars that let you watch your iPod video in the headrest monitors…
Going to my happy place
…Macworld! Besides the frustrations of iTunes’ automations, my friends at Apple sent me an exhibit hall pass. (And I see I’m now listed as an “auhtor” in iTunes, yay!) So I’m off to see what’s new, say hi, and take photos — and get a bag full of free convention crap, because you know how…
Just in: Heart still most deceitful thing
At SFist today, where I’m a columnist, there has been a lot of activity about the whole JT LeRoy unmasking thing. (Read all the comments.) I found out today when I read the Gawker post over my morning coffee, but then several people forwarded me Susie Bright’s extremely revealing post about beiung duped and used,…
New erotica by N.T. Morley
I’ve been working with widely published dominance and submission author N.T. Morley for many years now, notably publishing his work in my Sweet Life: Erotic for Couples series and reading a few stories on Open Source Sex. We’re good friends (he gave me a DVD of Secretary of my birthday a few years back), and…
Rosie, we love you!
Coop sent me this *totally amazing* image of a color slide from the Library of Congress Online Exhibition “Bound for Glory: America in Color 1939-1943“. Caption: Alfred T. Palmer Woman is working on a “Vengeance” dive bomber Tennessee, February 1943 Reproduction from color slide Coop: “Check out that red nail polish!”
Don’t hurt the pussy
You know, it’s been a busy week. But I just found a pocket of mental relief (about to be followed up with a tasty alcoholic beverage). You see, last weekend I read that damn awful New York Times Magazine article about vaginal reconstruction surgery. And I had the usual reactions; sadness, at the shame driving…
My Fleshbot Uniform
As a few readers of both my blog and Fleshbot might have noticed, a couple of my bits were surreptitiously featured over New Year’s weekend on a certain Gawker Media site. There’s a very long backstory involving an excitable editor, my digital camera and a few hasty moments in my bathroom… and my new work…
