  • Google purges adult content from search results Welcome to Googlestan!

    A few days ago the devil children over at SEOBlackHat.com notified me of a new kind of Google-dance. Normally the #1 search engine targets the latest exploits when it reorganizes its index, causing webmasters to sweat and wait to see if their pages will rise or fall in the new order. This time Google took a far larger step – removing explicit sexual content from listings en masse. The arguments for doing it in cases are strong. Most people typing ‘Sex’ into Google probably don’t want porn and Google’s in the business of giving us what we want. Converesly though people typing ‘blowjob’ into Google probably do want porn and…

  • The (many) lies pornographers tell Porn counting goes like this: 1, 2, 3, Gang, “INSERT FANTASY NUMBER HERE.” And basically everything else is a lie also.

    1. Porn stars are breaking into the mainstream You’re not cast as the stripper who dances naked at the bachelor party and then has a coat hook put through the back of her head while she’s fucking the star because you have potential as a character actress. You’ll get offered ‘Third junkie hooker’ because junkie hookers one and two get to keep their clothes on and there’s a line of real actresses out the door fighting to do those parts, and getting a five episode story arc on CSI doesn’t count when they’re using your notoriety for free publicity. The mainstream’s happy to inject a little pornster sex-appeal when they…

  • The mystery of Larry Wachowski Could the co-creator of The Matrix real life truly be stranger than fiction?

    Originally published January 12, 2006 in RollingStone (archive: archive.is/Y1xcB) and disappeared at some point since then. We can’t be sure of the reason for this disappearance (possible clue in the next link), but it will most certainly never be republished or made available again by the far-left magazine. One night in January 2001, Larry Wachowski, co-director of the blockbuster Matrix movies, walked into a dark club in West Hollywood, where the rules of identity easily blurred, just like in his films. The Dungeon served the devoted BDSM – bondage, discipline, sadism and masochism – community in Los Angeles. It was a place where power dynamics between two different types of…
