Into Temptation

Posted By Jeff on February 24, 2012

I haven’t written anything here in about eight months because I’ve been busy doing other things. The Into Temptation project is in revision and on hold. In fact, it’s going to be called something else when I return to it. Intotemptation.net is for sale.

I thought about taking the site down, and I might; or selling the domain, and I might; but not, you know … yet. There’s some decent writing, hereabouts, if you just stumbled in. It seems a shame to delete it.

I am available for work — writing, editing, technology wizardry, etc. It doesn’t have to be about sex. This was a whim that got out of hand.

… is a little like watching a sexual assault, at this point. Which is to say, it’s not sexy, and not about sex. Now it’s about violence and humiliation.

Along with everyone else, I wrote about it (a bit) yesterday.

The only (other) person who I think caught the story right is Hendrik Hertzberg at The New Yorker, who had this to say, among other things:

“On MSNBC, the cable-news “home page” of my political tribe, one commentator said that one of the things Weinergate shows is that powerful politicians assume they can get away with things that regular people can’t. If they do assume that, they’re wrong. It would be more accurate to say that they can’t get away with things that regular people can. Look around you. Consider your friends, your work colleagues, your relatives, maybe even yourself. It’s likely that a nontrivial proportion of them have some sexual secret (at least they think it’s a secret) in their lives. If their secret comes out, if they get caught in an embarrassing lie about it, the whole world isn’t going to hear about it. It won’t be national news.”

In other words — what Weiner did was commonplace. It really was. Get together with 20 random acquaintances of yours and the odds are that at least two or three, maybe more, have done or are doing what Weiner did.

Tracy Clark-Flory has a nice take on how the Web has changed notions of intimacy and betrayal at Salon.com.

EduHookUps.com, a startup from kids at the University of Chicago, had perhaps the best shot going at becoming the “Facebook of Sex,” a web nickname that any number of social networking sites have coveted for years. I say “had,” because as of today, the domain name has been sold and apparently the whole site is being rebooted. All users must establish new accounts. From the site:

UPDATE: eduHookups will be continuing under new management. Effective May 23rd, 2011, all user data generated to date (posts, private messages, etc.) will be reset in the interest of privacy and security. The registration system will be re-enabled, and all current members will need to re-register.

I wrote about this over at Sex Feed.

I mean, steal this Valentine. Or any part of it you like. It’s the closest I can come to a Hallmark moment. I have not had to write something for publication for Valentine’s Day since … the 1980s. I am sure I had to do it then.

Fortunately, the only record of whatever it is I had to say is on microfiche, in a library. I won’t tell you where.

Anyway, I do love this video.

Who wouldn’t? Thanks, Lazybones. Love and kisses.

Lady Gaga knows how to get a Pittsburgh crowd going, that’s for sure.

Now that’s entertainment.

The last time the Steelers made the Super Bowl, I went looking for Terrible Towel erotica and posted some here — but don’t bother with the link if you’re looking for p0rn, because all I had were some nice Flickr images that people have taken down since then.

But now I’ll go look again …

And I found something. (You knew I would, right?) Porn star Diamond Foxxx, a big Steelers fan, is actually keeping a promise she made in November and says she’ll give a blowjob to any of her Twitter followers who shows up at her post-game victory party. There are a few rules of course …

Diamond Foxxx Pledges a Super Blow If Steelers Win

And people think I make this stuff up.

Foxxx sent out this tweet on Nov. 10 saying:

Talk about doing one for the team, huh? Vicky Vette and Gabby Quinteros are being enlisted to handle the, err, overflow. I confess, I wouldn’t know any of them if I passed the on the street, so I guess I’ll have to post photos of all three. I could post photos of all three giving blowjobs … but let’s leave something to the imagination, hmm?

(more…)

Well, who wouldn’t want to know how to talk dirty in Japanese? Why should the Japanese have all the fun? Thanks, Midori.

I don’t see any reason why it should be OK to make fun of how the Japanese can occasionally butcher English if we don’t at least try giving them the ammo to retaliate.

By the way, for those of you who want more regular updates of SexIs magazine articles and news than I can remember to post here — here’s the SexIs mag RSS feed. Spread it around, ‘K?
