Hiatus …

| 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 [...]

Watching the media hump Andrew Weiner …

| June 7, 2011

… 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 [...]

EduHookups.com sold, security an issue

Talking dirty in Japanese …

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. [...]

You've Been Tempted.

Shadowy "Into Temptation" has been a forum about evolving social-sexual networks and how they have changed and are changing lives. In other words, we talk about dating and sex.

The original intention was that this blog would also chronicle a book project on the same subject; but that is in flux, on hiatus, perhaps meant for another time.
