Lingerieve 12

- by in Art, Happenings, Headline, Images, Music, Personalities

When it comes to photography, a lot of Forrest Black’s and my personal work is counterculture portraits we shoot in our trademark location studios. Since the mid-1990’s, we’ve been dragging professional fashion studio lighting into some of the most unlikely places to immortalize that special energy that only really happens in the right environment on […]

London Calling

420 California Girls

- by in Happenings, Headline, Images, Manifesto, Trappings

I live in the heart of Hollywood and there is tons of commercial space for rent here right now. I am surprised at how many places have been trying to get a tenant without success for as long as they have. Except that places which have been empty for literally years still have asking prices […]

Keanu Reeves in a live action Cowboy Bebop?

Keanu Reeves in a live action Cowboy Bebop?

- by in Popcorn

In an odd assortment of synchronicity, I was recently having conversations about both Cowboy Bebop and Keanu Reeves as an actor, albeit not linked conversations. Tonight, the Twitterverse is trending Cowboy Bebop hard. The talk of the digital town appears to be that Keanu Reeves is attached to possibly play Spike Siegel in a live […]

Big Boob Barbie and Country Club Biff are not the Oppressors

- by in Blue Blood

Many folks who fancy themselves individualistic iconoclasts like to imagine that there is some 80’s movie villain guy or some beautiful blonde debutante girl (with huge knockers) who is holding them back. The dismal reality is that counterculture fails to be stronger because, too often, it eats its own. Comedian Chris Rock does a joke […]

Zak Sabbath Did Porn, Fun Insight, Shifting Ground

- by in Blue Blood

Zak Smith’s memoir We Did Porn is beautifully-produced by Tinhouse Books and it is a beautifully-written, readable book, featuring entertaining aphorisms and some sex stuff which might be titillating to people who are not me. A peculiarity of the book is the juxtaposition of absolutely brilliant cultural insights about the art world, the educated world, […]

Do you hate to see people like you succeed — Why Adam Lambert might not win American Idol

- by in Blue Blood

If you are alt-identified, yet want Kris Allen to beat Adam Lambert in this week’s American Idol finale, then you are complicit in your own oppression. Rebels who want Adam Lambert to lose must just hate themselves. People like to fuss about sex and sexuality, but the place where Adam Lambert is actually unusual is […]

Ben and Jerry’s Free Ice Cream

- by in Blue Blood

If you live on the West Coast like me, it is not too late to get free ice cream from Ben and Jerry’s today. Southern California has been having a crazy heatwave. I confess to worshiping at the alter of frosty central air conditioning, but I had to leave the house yesterday to get espresso […]
