At our local (San Francisco) Weinstein Gallery -- his Timeless series, link via sexblo.gs.

justice department panty raids, come cups

17 December 2006
* It's really easy to get lulled into thinking the 2257 harassment and shakedowns of pornographers is over since it's not in the news these days -- not so. Even though porn is not illegal in the US and 2257 is For the Children, the laundry list of legitimate businesses […]

HOWTO: give an erotic gift (for the holidays and beyond)

16 December 2006
Image via Hegre Xmas gallery. This is the weekend for holiday shoppers to rampage! And I've noticed a funny trend in the sexblogosphere this year, where instead of gift guides some people are making *guides to* gift guides written on other websites. It's like so meta -- so I thought for […]

14 December 2006
Image by Jacob Appelbaum. The second Roboexotica 2006 GETV episode is up! In it, I interview more robot makers, Jonathan Moore is so not helpful explaining what his machine does ("It makes a drink, and you drink it"), I coin a new bukkake term, and I drink throughout the video. I'm […]

chron column: knitting for adults only

14 December 2006
At SRL for many months, us women in the shop have built up a frothy reservoir of angst toward Make Magazine for never putting forward women makers (as opposed to women crafters), and the whole overall "make is for boys, craft is for girls" vibe the empire exudes -- don't […]

us army using adbrite for recruitment

12 December 2006
... and they're willing to pay $1000 a day to be on your blog. I just found the US Army's ads in my AdBrite queue for rejection or approval, along with "meet hot singles" and "win at poker". The final frontier of the desperate spammer. So far, AdBrite pretty much […]
