Apparently, unlike BlogHer, there’s no condom vendors at South by Southwest for Nick Douglas (nee: Valleywag, whose launch we blogged once-upon-a-time, now lost to the mists of dead servers) to whore himself out to for a sponsorship at his video blog, Look! Shiny!.

Of all the ways one could attempt to recapture one’s college days, keeping up on undergraduate student newspapers’ sex coverage is right up there (either that, or discussing post-coitally where Baudrillard meets Buffy, take your pick).

How, how, how did I miss Ariel Levy on The Colbert Report?

Gina de Vries is a queer writer from San Francisco, but in true bicoastal perversion, we met back East when we were both calling the Pioneer Valley of Massachusetts ‘home’ and making trouble in its woods, cafes, and dorms. At the time, she was co-editing, with Diane Anderson-Minshall, [Becoming]: young ideas on gender, identity, [...]
