This should be a joke, but it isn’t. It’s just your average paramilitary, lesbian, bondage, high-end real estate male fantasy. This is apparently the new way to sell homes in Australia.
If you’re more interested in real estate than girls in lingerie, you can see the actual home here.
(Thanks, Violet Blue!)
A few years ago, I used to make an effort to find “GeekPornGirl centerfolds” for the blog – women with qualities I felt exemplified the GPG essence (which I admit, is elusive). Some months it was really hard, and finally, I just let the project go.
However, Synthette on YouTube would have qualified. She’s hot, smart, and creative. While her most recent video features a high-five glove that makes an explosion sound on contact, previous videos have included a hank drum, and a flex resistor jacket. For reasons I don’t totally understand, she also posts videos of herself eating specific foods. For example, there’s one of her eating grilled pineapple called “Eating a Grilled Pineapple for 46 Seconds”. Check out more of her posts on her YouTube channel.
Here are calendars from two different sides of the country. Both will enhance your dyke decor, help you get organized, and make great holiday gifts. Plus, each of them supports a good cause. Click through to the publisher’s websites and look through the months.
The Women Motorcycle Riders Calendar is jammed with photos of women surrounded by lots of shiny chrome and black leather. This calendar is especially fun for San Francisco Bay Area residents who will recognize many of the faces (and bikes!). Sales will help defray medical costs for one of the women featured in the calendar who is undergoing cancer treatment. The calendar is $29.50 and you can order it here.
I Heart Brooklyn Girls is a fun, themed calendar with a cult following, and this year’s queer pulp fiction theme is once again pure fun. A portion of the sales will help benefit Sylvia’s Place, an emergency overnight shelter for homeless LGBT youth run by the Metropolitan Community Church of New York. Calendars are available on the IHBG website, and in select stores and bookshops. 2011 calendars are $12, and posters are available, as well as previous years’ calendars, which you might want just for the pictures. (I was a fan of the 2009 calendar!)

Walter C. May put this video together with the help of his roommates—who just happen to be in a band called The Daylights. It was posted on YouTube yesterday and has since then been tweeted about, reposted, and passed around by all sorts of people.
The video is a “viral love letter” to Walter’s girlfriend who has gone off to graduate school, thousands of miles away. He wants the video to reach her organically, through the many channels of digital contact, like any other virus. Or, like an STD. (After all, they’re thousands of miles apart.)
Here’s my contribution to his project, but I need to say this:
Walter, if your girlfriend finds this video on Geek Porn Girl, your problems may be much bigger than a few thousand miles…

From DIS Magazine comes the W4W Buzz, a lesbian visibility barbershop poster. This graphic salute to all the women who sit in line with the men to plunk themselves into a vinyl chair every four weeks, can be purchased here (scroll down on the jump to read the essay that accompanies the poster).
You just know it would be a great holiday gift for someone on your list. You could pack it with a tin of Clubman Talc.
Travis Nuckolls and Chris Baker take to the streets of Colorado Springs, asking strangers if they think being gay is a choice:
Despite my appreciation of a good rhinestone tiara, I have little patience for the sparkly pink pap marketed to little girls.If you’re also tired of little girls’ bedrooms that look like they were puked on by Cinderella’s fairy godmother, you’ll appreciate these posters by artist Amanda Visell.
Hang one over the bed of a girl you love. (Big girls love these too!)
You can buy them here.
Thanks to this collection of naughty and nice ornaments, you can make your Christmas tree look like the women’s area at the Folsom St. Fair.

Honestly, if Bo Burnham was a girl, I think I would propose marriage, or commitment, or domestic partnership, or at very least a co-joined household. He’s smart, funny, and completely shameless:
Do you need more Pi? Or a sexy short story about Pi?
Happy Pi Day! Have a slice for me, I’m gluten-intolerant.
Probably not safe for work, but safe enough and absolutely hilarious for 13-year-old boys:
I know this is getting posted all over the internet, and I have to thank blogger extraordinaire Violet Blue for bringing it to my attention. I’m reposting it here because, well, some things just belong on Geek Porn Girl and I’d have to count a self-inflating bra among them.
The “hand of God” bra uses inflation technology to lift the girls to new heights.
The name may be the funniest part of this invention. If you don’t know what a “hand bra” is, check it out here.
This “Barbie Foot” foosball game is being displayed and sold at Colette, a boutique in Paris, in celebration of Barbie’s 50th anniversary.
It was designed by Chloé Ruchon, and produced by Bonzini, a high end foosball retailer in conjunction with the Mattel toy company. It can grace your den or dyke bar for a reported 10,000 Euro.
Rows of Barbie characters kicking at each other? Tell me this doesn’t look like The L Word.
Somethings just defy definition, yet still beg an answer to the question: “Yes, but is it art?”
This from the blog Look At This Fucking Hipster, check it out.
Here’s the complete collection of Geek Porn Girl posts, serious and silly, from the past week:
Sharon Gless, TV’s “Cagney,” in SF’s Dyke March
Obama to Meet With LGBT Leaders
The Wine Rack is a liquid-holding sports bra, sort of the Pamela Anderson of the Camelbak-type hydration dispensers.
The After 5 Catalog, which celebrates all things related to drinking, promises that the bra – when full – will increase your bust by two bra cup sizes. It doesn’t say how that translates out into fluid ounces, however.
The catalog does actually say this:
If you’re going to whine about being flat-chested – may as well wine about being flat-chested!
Just imagine all the fun you’ll have dispensing 98.6-degree Chardonnay to your friends, for only $29.95 and a backache.
This seems particularly funny to me today. Some kind soul Stumbled one of my stories, “By the Numbers,” and I ended up with tons of people visiting the blog this week. Judging by the comments, most of them were guys with geek creds. Then today, this on xkcd: a webcomic. Obviously, Fibonacci’s time has come.
Rachel was adorable mixing drinks with Martha Stewart, but she and Jimmy Fallon are really, truly funny together. I want to party with them! Rachel is proof-positive that smarter is always sexier:

Erin Leone has to be the darn cutest sex blogger out there. A 14-year-old boy in a 20-something gender-queer body, Erin makes video reviews that are completely lacking in production values, but honest and damn entertaining. Watching them is like sitting in your college dorm room watching your roommate demonstrate sex toys. This is Erin’s review of Early to Bed‘s soft pack called the “Packy,” using an iPod Nano (first generation) as a size comparison. Erin says the Packy put a smile on hir face all day. This video actually made me want to try packing. (I’m basically femme, but I do love a secret.) Go Erin!

By the time I had heard of San Francisco’s Kink.com empire, they were already famous because their Fucking Machines had been featured on HBO’s show “Real Sex”. Word was definitely getting around, and I had to check them out.
Then at the end of 2006, Kink.com bought the old armory in SF, turning it into a a 200,000 square foot pleasure palace with offices and filming sets.
Some of the best stuff about Kink.com is the details: the “after glow” shots of the models and “Behind Kink” interviews.
I recently stumbled into this “Behind Kink,” featuring fuckingmachines.com’s director Tomcat giving a tour of all the new kinky machines to Kink.com’s CEO Peter Ackworth. I’m going to guess that Tomcat is the reason so much of the Kink.com material manages to be thoroughly pornographic without feeling especially misogynistic. Tomcat is genderqueer, smart, hot, and apparently very creative and handy with his hands. The whole scene is kinky, wild, and funny. A short documentary about fucking machines, if you will.
Warning: This is definitely x-rated material and not for the sexually squeamish. It’s also not for watching at work. That said, you can check out Tomcat’s tour here.

My family has had lots of journalists hanging out in the old family tree. I spent some time in newsrooms myself, and these past years, from the sidelines, I’ve watched the industry dragging itself through changes, like a mastodon in the La Brea tar pits.
ASSME is the the American Society of Shitcanned Media Elites, a new support organization for newly downsized members of the magazine, newspaper, book publishing, advertising, TV and web industries.
