Friday 'Sexual Innuendo Image....

This 'Friday Sexual Innuendo Image' sees us and the women of 'Hannav 3' in the Esig System watching the 'Parade' of Consorts' during the 'Festival of Copulous'. The biannual festival gives the women of the Matriarchal governed world a chance to get a look at the young men of their homeworld and beyond during their 'come-of-age' exposition.

Though modesty is paramount on Hannav 3 for young males, during the festival they are allowed to be seen without their traditional face and head wrappings. Though they wear form hiding garments, when a potential female suitor wishes to 'inspect' him, she may use the traditional 'Manhole' at the front of the garment to take 'measure' of his potential prowess....

For you 'World Builders' a Fanged Fish That Bites You to 'High' Heaven....

You'd figure anything with 'fangs' has got something for your you're not gonna' like. Poisons running the gamut from 'blood bursters', 'neurotoxins', 'paralytics' and powerful 'digestive enzymes' are just a few that come to mind when fanged animals are mentioned.

Not the 'Fanged Blenny'. These innocuous fish when caught in the jaws, claws or tentacles of their enemies use two huge fangs to bite the livin' tar out of them. But instead of a nasty poison cocktail, they deliver an 'opiod-based' cocktail that get their potential devourer zooted to high heaven in an instant. While they see the undersea version of 'The Little Mermaid on Acid', they let go of the Blenny and it swims on it's merry way....

Coming of Age Animation with an Unexpected Twist....

Ah, those bygone days of yesteryear when sneaking into a private pool gave the excuse to get some clothes off and the potential to get more than that! 

Director Jérémie Périn spins a beautiful tale of such a moment as two pairs of teens sneak into a private pool for some swimming and snogging. Of course there's the one couple who is going for broke with the other having one individual clumsily ready to go and the other painfully shy and withdrawn. Ah, memories!

But in this terribly sweet and all-too-familiar scene, something isn't right and things get 'interesting'. Check out this well done if not disturbing French animated short....

So...Are You Ready For The Mars Run?

With the confirmation of the 'Electromagnetic Drive' (EMD) being able to provide sustainable thrust far faster and with little fuel than any rocket made, one way to Mars in 6 - 8 weeks is reality. With most of the tech required to put together a craft that will get astronaughts there safely, new spacesuits that provide better movement and protection really all that is required is to get busy building and we can go years before 2030.

In the meantime, here's a spectacular video of the Martian surface from space by the HiRISE Camera in orbit over the Red Planet.

Monday Means 'Pulp!'

Monday's the designated day for some oldschool Pulp cover action! 

This work made by Tom Chantrell was actually for a racy 1960's sci-fi film. This pre-production movie poster was submitted to the old 'Hammer Films' production studio that made the popular 'Dracula' series of movies starring veteran actors Christopher Lee (Lord of the Rings) and Peter Cushing (Star Wars).

The film tentatively titled, 'When the Earth Cracked Open' never got made. But it would certainly have been interesting to learn what made a 'topless' deep-water diving suit effective under such dire circumstances....

For You Folks Over 30 Who Are 'DnD Curious'....

For nearly 40 years, groups of people have gathered in college dorm rooms, living rooms and basements to gather round a table and 'vanish' into other realms on grand adventures. Of course, after a certain age when work and family life take precedent spending hours if not days crawling through underground labyrinths, traipsing through dense forests or tracking quarry amid throngs of people on the streets of an ancient city seems 'frivolous' at best.

However, as adults we need to 'play' more than children in that the relief from the stressors of everyday life is important to keep us from going on killing sprees! So for those of you who may have been or are 'DnD Curious', here's an article to help you decide whether you just want to get your 'feet wet' or go 'all the way down the rabbit hole' and get the 'adventuring bug'....

The Post That Got Us Banned from Facebook....

This is our inaugural 'Friday Sexual Innuendo Image' that got us banned from facebook. We now re-present it as it was intended.

This 'Friday Sexual Innuendo Image' takes us deep into the tropics as the warrior 'Maapahn' spies the princess Nahve rising from her afternoon nap as her retainers tend to their weapons nearby. The task given him by his chief was to kidnap the princess and force her people to agree to his terms to annex their country. But upon laying eyes upon the young ruler, the warrior has plans of his own....
