Harassment at Arisia

Arisia is a science-fiction convention in New England which takes its name from the remote, mysterious guiders of Galactic Civilization in the “Lensman” books. As such, I find it interesting how they handled a harassment report at their convention. Read the LiveJournal reports – you may find them interesting. I’d like to see this as …

Harassment

Whether it be a fan con or a lifestyle event, from this day forward I will do everything in my power to make sure that every convention with which I am involved has an anti-harassment policy in place, well-publicized, and enforced. For decades, I have been under the impression that fans and kinky people were …

Girls with Slingshots

And now, I would like to take a moment and plug the excellent webcomic “Girls with Slingshots” by the charming Danielle Corsetto. I am doing this in part because I’ve enjoyed her work for years and wish to encourage people to support her strip, and in part because I accidentally got to have dinner with …

The Book of Erotic Fantasy

Well, it actually kept threatening to but was continually prevented; Foglio knew that promising a look at sex in gaming would be far …

Class Descriptions

I do presentations and demos for kink events, ranging in size from small local group socials to large organization weekends such as Dark Odyssey. But there wasn’t really any formal list of the classes I could present… until now. Shokolada’s Mess: Classes! I absolutely love putting on a show with a touch of education and …

It’s Smaller On the Inside

A generic anime girl in a TARDIS-styled vacuum bondage box.

After seeing the latex Companion Cube from Kink Engineering, I had to find out if this custom job would be possible – just as a one-off, not an inventory item. Sadly, it seems it would be prohibitively expensive, and KE just doesn’t want to get burned by possible copyright infringement issues. Fair enough! Still, it …

30 Seconds Later: Poof!

I removed the Tag Cloud widget from the sidebar ’cause I just didn’t like how it looked on the page. If people were using it a whole lot, let me know and I’ll see if I can re-integrate it into the site somehow. Also, geek points to whoever can tell me the origin of the …

Creamy Pied

Now the messing’s all done It might just have been fun For the ladies who’re now Creamy Pied. Couldn’t sleep tonight, so I wrote out the script / stage directions for our Portal spoof skit. Totally doable, with our versions of Chell, the Cube, and GLaDOS… but after model fees, costumes, props, and materials, probably …
