+ 2014 was a really good year for sex toy tech, including sex life tracking, better smut and better vibrators:
“With physicists and engineers gradually looking to the Silicon Valley sex toy space, we started to see the market getting a whole lot smarter. Vibrators like the Hum, which was created by three Silicon Valley biohackers, replicates the experience of having sex with an actual lover by providing auto-feedback in the form of pulses and vibrations, and remote-controlled sex toys like OhMiBod’s BlueMotion and LovePalz’ recently launched Twist couples’ sex toy allow couples to stay connected over great distances.”

+ There wasn’t a lot of news this week so here’s some porn from Carol Leonard’s “Medea” in Dark Angels: Lesbian Vampire Erotica:
“Medea watched with calculated certainty and then lightly teased her breasts down Hannah’s body until her mouth was on Hannah’s navel. She slipped her tongue into the indentation, then teased and nipped her way to Hannah’s springy public hair. She stopped to inhale deeply. Yes, blood…that delicious, salty, sweet and musty nectar! The skin of her scalp began to tingle and she let out a low growl. She snaked her tongue down between the silky folds of Hannah’s clit. She drew her head back and breathed hot breath on it and brushed it with her tongue ever so slightly, teasing. Hannah was squirming with impatience. She reached down and grabbed handfuls of Medea’s hair, pushing Medea’s face firmly into her. Medea laughed, beginning a more firm and rhythmic stroking with her tongue. Her fingers searching, she spread Hannah’s labia and let out a groan when she felt how slick and wet Hannah was.”

+ From “Aftermath,” by Valerie Alexander, in Best Lesbian Erotica 2013:
“I slid three fingers inside her. Her count closed around me, tight and quivering. She groaned but I took my time, absorbing her warmth and her smell. I stroked her clit and her front inner wall in tandem, slowly, making her kick the cushions in frustration. Then without giving her time to adjust, I fucked her hard and rapid until she was bucking and panting beneath me. Venetia gripped the sofa cushions, groaning out unintelligible sounds and writhing until her small tits bounced in time with my hand. I’d always assumed she would fuck like a pillow princess but she was exploding under me, all wetness and heat.”

Emily Dickinson’s OkCupid profile was very amusing
Yo that isn’t my high school but I actually have friends who go there; that’s rad. I love it when students take their education into their own hands.
Some sort of kudos is required for this week’s title.
Also I’ve been meaning to mention how lovely and positively Puckish your new icon picture is Ms.Carolyn.

I actually broke up with someone because of cat incompatibility. I don’t even want to know where that ranks on the stereotype scale.
Dang, I just don’t know how I feel about that OJST comic. Isn’t it messed up to refer to two spirit identity as a “valid cool gendery combo” that anyone can try on?
Also the same panel’s listing of “trans-feminine” and “trans-masculine” as “gender combos” seems misleading at best?
Maybe I just don’t know enough about the world of “gender play” that MG is trying to educate us about, am I missing something here? I’m only reacting to one small panel, but it seems like an important one to clarify!
