The Sex Blog Of Record
Saturday, July 28th, 2018 -- by Bacchus
I’ll confess to not being as regular about Sharing Our Shit on Saturday as I would like to be, but here I am today on this particular Saturday with some excellent shit to share:
- That industrious patron of the arts and my good friend Dr. Faustus has been busy since the last time I shared his publications and productions. Recent output includes editions of his comic Bubbles in Hebrew (עברית), Vietnamese (Tiếng Việt), and Bengali (বাংলা). The third chapter is now available in The Adventures of Ashley Madder, and there has been a substantial revision/addition to the comic Bait, announced here. Four new pieces of commissioned art supplementary to Bait (or pendant to it, if you prefer the word that Dr. Faustus uses) have also been published: here and here and here and here. And finally, all the Bait goodies have a permanent secure home at the Internet Archive now. I swear I don’t know how Faustus does it!
- The Rialto Report continues its ambitious project of making high-quality scans of porn magazines from forty years ago. This time it’s a visit to 1980 with the issues from that year of Cinema-X Review and Adam Film World.
- Ten Things I’ve Learned From 10 Years Of Sex — a really smart bit of writing from Kate Sloan at Girly Juice. I sure as shit didn’t learn that much in my first ten years of having sex, and in a lot more than ten years I never learned to write paragraphs so nice and tight.
- I appreciate a good obsession as well as the next person, so I am in awe of this post at Vanilla Spanking that explores at 3,500-word length (plus extensive visual material) the question of whether there was ever a Tarzan movie in which Jane gets a spanking. One word answer: no. But every near-spanking and situation in which Tarzan threatens to spank somebody is lovingly detailed, and the one funny-papers comic-strip panel in which Tarzan does spank an abusive lady big game hunter is presented in both its as-originally-published and later-reprint spanking-censored-out versions. Obsessions, man, long may they wave!

I may have missed a couple of Saturdays in a row but that’s just all the more reason to slide in another Share Our Shit Saturday post, isn’t it?
- For the last two months my venerable blogfriend BJ has been posting photos of bearded men from his inexhaustible collection of vintage gay porn. He was up to “beard058” by the time he posted this shot, which also typifies the reason that the phrase “assless chaps” gained the popularity it enjoys. (Not to mention the power it has to make linguistic pedants tear their dull and lifeless hair out in great double-fisted clumps.)
- The Rialto Report has reproduced for posterity the rare-as-hen’s-teeth first year’s run of Adult Video News issues from 1983/1984.
- It has become traditional to include the monthly BDSM link roundup from The History of BDSM in whichever of these #SOSS posts follows it. The roundup never disappoints.
- Finally and as usual, my good friend Dr. Faustus has been busy! Publication is complete on the first whole chapter of The Adventures of Ashley Madder (a Tales of Gnosis College comic and tribute to the Adventures of Phoebe Zeit-Geist). What’s more, there are three new pieces of commissioned supplementary art for the previously-published graphic novella Bait. And finally, for those of strong stomach, at Infernal Wonders there are two exercises in recovering deeply-lost fringe artists from the depths of the Internet Archive. Content on these is likely to squick most readers, but the demonstration of methods for retrieval of very old and very lost web content may have interest beyond the content itself: Atomica, Hekonix. And last but not least, Bubbles is now available in Tagalog!

Sometimes my most compelling motivation to put up a Share Our Shit Saturday post is the amazing stuff my friend Dr. Faustus publishes with such regularity, so this week I’m going to start with him:
- Faustus’s Rosetta Stone of a free mad science comic Bubbles is now available in Japanese and in Arabic. I doubt the Japanese will bat an eyelash, but if it doesn’t tweak the beards of some self-appointed guardians of Arab culture and morality somewhere, it will disappoint me. (Plus the first 20 pages of The Adventures of Ashley Madder — being the latest book in the long-running Tales of Gnosis College free comic book series — are now available for reading at this link.)
- Girl On The Net squirted for the first time, and just possibly may have added a tip to the sexual literature on how that can be accomplished, for folks who find it tricky or elusive.
- In Rain DeGrey’s latest advice column, she fields several questions about orgasms from a perspective of plenty — whether there can be too many, how to handle squirting anxiety, and what a fellow can do with his “tease and deny” fantasy when his wife enjoys the ability to orgasm easily and effortlessly.

I like to Share Our Shit of a Saturday, and this is a Saturday, so:
- I link fairly often to Paltego at Femdom-Resource, so I was thrilled to see him mention that he’d given this detailed interview to Miss Ava Zhang. The chance to learn more about him while also linking to and providing visibility to a woman in her line of work that I otherwise would not have known about, at a her own site — which is what these #SoSS posts are all about! — that I normally would not have had an excuse to visit, is a bonus in these trying times.
- Since last we checked in with my good friend Dr. Faustus, he’s been busy; his empire of projects and commissions has been churning right along. Notable releases include The Sacrifice Of Gigi, which is an even-darker re-imagining by the artist Faustus Crow (no relation) of one of the scenes from Dr. Faustus’s comic In The Kitchen With Dolcetta. Dr. Faustus also completed publication of his sexy Star Trek parody The Needs Of The Many in both English and Spanish languages. I’m also pleased to announce that Faustus has got me doing image research for him again, and blogging the results at Erotic Mad Science; the first of these commissions appeared yesterday. Finally, a casual image forward on my part has become rather more; after sending him a vintage tube-girl illustration from a Japanese source, Faustus commissioned a paid translation of the accompanying text to provide context for a blog post about the image. Never let it be said that the man is not dedicated to his art!
- The History of BDSM blog puts out a monthly roundup of deep-dive and/or thoughtful kink and BDSM links. It’s a pretty impressive effort that’s worth some time if you’re interested in these subjects.

Not every Saturday can be a Share Our Shit Saturday, but this one is:
- Stolen (borrowed, ganked, call it how you like) from Girl On The Net’s link roundup today, a might-actually-help post at Domme Chronicles to share with men who ask that difficult question about how to get their wives interested in femdom.
- Rain DeGrey has a podcast! Two episodes ( EP-001 EP-002 ) so far. And a Patreon to keep it going. Now, I know a few of you assholes can’t deal with a woman who has sex and opinions at the same time, or even alternately; this might not be for you. But the rest of y’all are probably in for a treat.
- Author Peter Tupper issues a truly excellent link roundup monthly at his History Of BDSM blog, with a focus on BDSM/kink/leather. The most recent one is here.
- Not only is my good friend Dr. Faustus blowing new posts up onto his image blogs Hedonix and Infernal Wonders today at a prodigious rate, but the day before yesterday he released his mad-science comic Bubbles (बà¥à¤²à¤¬à¥à¤²à¥‡) in Hindi, adding by his estimate another quarter of a billion potential readers at a minimum. (If you have wondered why Faustus’s projects are so often included in my #SoSS roundups, it’s because — as if our friendship and his prodigious creative output were not sufficient reasons — he’s a stalwart supporter of the ErosBlog Patreon. Many rewards for patrons include a specific formal promise to help promote them in some way, but I don’t rules-lawyer my patrons; if you’re a patron and you ask me, I’ll find some commensurate way to help promote your stuff!)

Hey, hey, hey, it’s Saturday! Let’s Share Our Shit!
- I’ll start with a special shout-out to Paltego at Femdom Resource, who rightly bemoans the accelerating trend of the disappearing blogroll: “One unfortunate trend I spotted when refreshing my blogroll was the number of sites that don’t have a blogroll at all. I’m not sure if that’s a new trend, or an ongoing thing that I’ve just not noticed before. Either way, I’m not a fan. A blogroll (or a links page) is the original version of Share Our Shit. In many ways, it’s a human version (in a very hand wavy way) of the classic Google PageRank alogrithm. If I like the writing of this blogger, there’s a good chance I’ll also like the stuff they read. Ironically, search engines themselves tend to suck at queries like “Femdom Blog”. I’d say 80% of the blogs I find come via links on other people’s blogs, with the other 20% from social media, comments or email. So if you’ve got a blog, please put up links to other blogs you like and read. It can be a traditional blogroll or a separate page or whatever. Just show a little love to your fellow bloggers and gives your readers some interesting people to explore.”
- Here’s the home page of Melissa Gira Grant, whose Twitter coverage about the ongoing purge of strippers from Bourbon Street in New Orleans under the guise of a fake human trafficking panic have been my only access to the story (it hasn’t appeared in any of my other regular news channels or feeds). Grant does good work.
- My good friend Dr. Faustus has added an index page at Erotic Mad Science for his Fabulae Atroces Fausti — the darker tales that were released recently and including the currently-being-released with daily pages tentacle-monster spectacular Bait.

I have missed making Share Our Shit Saturday posts two weeks in a row due to circumstances that were, more or less, beyond my control, so here’s to avoiding the trifecta:
- A post about bad sex — sex you don’t want but consented to anyway — by Ella Dawson.
- The most frequently-seen recurring feature at Violet Blue’s venerable blog Tiny Nibbles: Open Source Sex is her Sex News compilation. (Luckily for me, it’s also usually my favorite.)
- My good friend Doctor Faustus at Erotic Mad Science is steadily posting the pages of his first bilingual webcomic “In the Kitchen with Dolcetta / En la cocina con Dolcetta.” The first page is here; this tag link will get you all the pages currently available.

It’s Share Our Shit Saturday time again:
- From BJ’s Gay Porno-Crazed Ramblings, a motorcycle post that includes this surprisingly tasteful photo of a motorcycle cop with his pants down to his knees doing some, ah, community policing.
- Paltego at Femdom Resource has some advice for taking Pacific-Northwest bushy pubes to the dommes of Los Angeles: Don’t. “Nobody likes a 70s style bush in SoCal.”
- A deep dive by Pandora/Blake into the privacy and antitrust implications of the age verification requirements for British porn sites (as well as for international porn sites that prove to be subject in practice to the uncertain reach of British law) coming in 2018. It’s been evident for a long time that the age-verification requirements are ill-considered and look set to create a series of rolling disasters for the British porn industry and its customers; whether anybody in British politics will notice or care, among the greater political chaos there, is a whole ‘nother question.
