Friend BC just sent me this video of exactly what it was like when would-be revelers/ticketholders found out the Exotic Erotic Ball was canceled this year (it was canceled last Friday, one day before the event). It was also amusing to watch all the EE tickets hit Craigslist Bay Area when the news broke…

Lara Stone: Size 8 Supermodel Is “Curvy” Icon?
This weekend (notoriously anti-porn) Guardian UK has a large feature on Dutch supermodel Lara Stone, who they say has become “the most dominant supermodel since Kate Moss.” They point out her specialness in that she has a gap in her front teeth — and is an icon for “curvier” women because she has C-cups, and…
Pretty Girl Friday: Late Night French Delights
I just got the latest galleries from high-end French adult site Explicite Art and there are a few noteworthy surprises. Like drop-dead gorgeous Katy, above. Then I’m surprised to see one of my favorite models from Met Art (and you may recognize her from other “arty” Euro photo sites) getting explicit with a solo —…
Found: Videos
You don’t actually need to *watch* the weather video. (At then end is an annoying ad anyway.) Just marvel that it’s not a joke. (via dlisted) Then, I feel obligated to show you the Die Antwoord video below, mostly because it’s making the blogrounds. It’s sex-driven, homoerotic *and* homophobic (lucky us), so you are warned…
Terry Richardson Shoots Glee, And People Are Surprised?
Seriously, if Terry Richardson is the one photographing Glee cast members for GQ, I don’t think anyone should be shocked that it’s going to be really dirty in an intentionally transgressive way. This morning my newsfeeds were squealing about the inappropriateness of GQ’s new cover and photo spread with actors from Glee. The actors were…
Fleshlight’s DIY Signature Textures
Until I saw Naked City’s post First World Problems: What Would Your Fleshlight Signature Texture Feel Like? — I had no idea. I ended up on the Fleshlight blog, looking at their signature texture post. (…) we discovered a selection of some of porn’s most celebrated starlets, all posing with their Fleshlights. Then we noticed…
RIP Bob Guccione: Scenes From Penthouse Adriatic Club: Then, and Now
Penthouse founder Bob Guccione died yesterday (technically still today for me). It felt strange to read about it in the news right after it hit the internet’s news sites, mostly because I thought about it as a pretty symbolic event. The magazine and its culture was a sentiment from before my time, and like its…
Wednesday Nibbles: Sex.com Sold, Litigious Pornographers, Phantom Penis, Australia (Again)
* On BBC, the South African adult film industry reacts to the recent HIV outbreak/quarantine in the Los Angeles adult film industry. And in a place where over 1000 people a day die from HIV, porn producer Tau Morena (Sondeza) is making porn with a message. “The pornography industry in Los Angeles is on edge…
Long Live VB.LY: We’re Back, Fresh New Digs
And… the domain formerly known as vb.ly is now vbly.us. All of your links are still there: when Libyan Spider unplugged the domain they took over 500,000 links off the internet. This damage has been undone. Read more in Dot US: The Restoration Of VBLY (techyum.com). Many people had created custom links through our service.…
Show Taschen Your Parts and Win Your Weight in Books
Last Friday I did a booksigning for the North American Independent Booksellers Association (I was signing Just Watch Me, which already has great reviews!) and had the pleasure of hanging out with reps from Taschen when I was done. If you’re unfamiliar, they make some of the most beautiful and exclusive erotic books in the…
