Dig Thomas Roche’s awesome post OTAKU MAnKO: Unlimited Minutes: For the last few years I’ve had a day job where I write oodles and oodles of articles about porn, fetish and adults-only events. I almost never see the sun; I drink more coffee than the nation of Turkey and when I get home after a…

I got an exclusive gallery from Nerd Girl X (thank you NGX!) where the nerdiness ranges from yarn to gaming and beyond — *lots* of girls with glasses, yay: and I put together a really incredible mini-list of fleshy-glamorous Rio Carnaval 2008 Flickr sets from last weekend……
