Month: March 2007

Pictured: about to be kicked out of the Ginger Man pub, I drunkenly hopped on these two hot guys on the couch to finish my beer (Eddie Codel and Jonathan Moore). A crowd gathered and I actually heard someone say, indicating us in our fleshpile, “Does anyone have a camera?” In a room full of…

This week’s column in Teh Chonic is Don’t Be Evil (Or A Dyke, Or Trans): Google’s AdWords confuses transgender terms with teen porn. We’ve all laughed (or shrieked) at the mis-matching of Google AdWords to search terms, or emails in Gmail — but in this case, sex-positive trans porn company Red Handed Porn found they…

About to leave for the airport to come home — a couple connections and I’m back! Yay! A few things in the meantime: * the weather here in Austin (video) * my Lustbites interview just went up; that blog is quite a lineup of incredible writers and I’m thrilled to be on it. * the…

Here’s the video. I uploaded more photos here. It’s pouring down rain right now here in Austin, with the most beautiful thunder and lightning show I’ve witnessed in ages.

Photos, videos and stories from me later today; in the meantime Scott Beale has complete SXSW photo coverage going on at Laughing Squid.

Almost didn’t make it here alive, dear readers… seriously, they were all in their mousy brown highlights…

Meaning, I’m finally packed and soothing my nervousness and stress with cocktails and relationship chat. I was deeply hurt by a lover today — and am heading into tricky lover/evil ex-lover territory at SXSW (toxic boy will be there, yuck). So Jonathan Moore and I have been in my kitchen with inebriants over ice, making…

Finally — Brad the way I’ve always wanted him… Seattle’s The Stranger (“Seattle’s only newspaper”) is one of my favorite free weeklies, most especially because it’s home to Dan Savage, the HUMP! porn festival, and their awesome Lovelab and Lustlabs. Their whipsmart, kinky sex-positive personals Lustlabs rock — and I just love artist Ellen Forney’s…
