Photograph by Nathan Appel. I’m still not sure what to be for Halloween. In between doing an interview about sex and robots today, and reviewing Kimberly Kane‘s incredible upcoming film Live In My Secrets, I came across the photography of Nathan Appel. Pretty, disturbing, edgy, sophisticated and very sexy — his occasional photos of stunning…

New GETV! Escape From Berkeley!
It’s been a while — too long, Eddie and I thought, and so we jumped at the chance to cover Escape From Berkeley. I did some early pre-press in this techyum post but nothing compared to the day the race began: getting up early on saturday and interviewing the anti-petroleum car hackers, then watching them…
Pre-Halloween shenanigans and the uploaded party
Photo by Scott Beale/Laughing Squid. Last saturday I had an intimate, impromptu pre-Halloween party — I know I forgot to invite a handful of people, but after ten months without a party I’m a little rusty (and plan to make up for it, do not fret). It’s weird having Halloween on a friday; living in…
Observer’s 2008 UK sex poll
Image via GalaDarling. While I ease through a hangover and into the day, I’m checking out the numbers in Guardian (UK) Observer’s just released sex poll findings. Check it out: One in five have had sex at work. A third of us lose our virginity before the age of consent. Half of us have had…

Pretty girl – Saturday!
Image of Freya A from this gallery. I get tons of galleries through my inbox all week; I wait until the end of the week to start picking through them and create a post with the ones I think really stand out from the rest. I just think it’s nice to have pretty things to…
Love’s many mysteries
Image via GalaDarling, my love. I just now happened to click on Jiz Lee’s beautiful post, Love Begets Love — while listening to Mary J Blige’s “What Love Is”. Thank you, Jiz. A month ago I realized I believe in love too — that I have to, to keep doing what I’m doing in the…
Fangtastic explicit Halloween audio erotica
Image of Apnea‘s great pumpkin massacre by Deviant Nation’s Flickr stream. Halloween is next friday, a week away, but there are a lot of costume parties and pre-Halloween shenanigans set for this weekend. To get myself even more in the mood, I consulted the spellbooks (I keep them next to Kinsey’s book on women) and…
Safely fucking anonymous johns with inspiration from TCP/IP
Image by airgap. How I came across this brilliant post is a bit of a story, but it’s by way of my Twitter account — and it’s a really eloquent piece about fantasy versus reality when it comes to sex worker fantasies. And realities. “Three-way handshake” indeed. There’s a lot of great stuff here. Snip:…
Apple = no on prop 8
Image by h.andras_xms. YAY for Apple! From Viviane: No on Prop 8 October 24, 2008 Apple is publicly opposing Proposition 8 and making a donation of $100,000 to the No on 8 campaign. Apple was among the first California companies to offer equal rights and benefits to our employees’ same-sex partners, and we strongly believe…
