Already, a significant portion of the 1370-site Australian blacklist – 506 sites – would be classified R18+ and X18+, which are [...]

I got a link to this page via my email, and I do love a good story over the interblahs. After School is the true story of two different kids at school and snapshots of their lives through time. One is the popular jock, one is the dork, but both are gay, and [...]

I did the test on the ATO website just now and I don’t get the $900 bonus because A-O+G=0. What am I on about? Well…

Dan kindly pointed out yesterday that I don’t have any reference yet to my belov’d housemates… after all, the house is for 9. So, I’ve put together a rough working list to be revised as needed:
Room 1 – The Endless Student: 6 universities, countless degrees, now doing Grad Law, but might eventually finish one [...]

Sara and Meitar depart today, back to the US. It has been a busy year for them here in Australia, and ended on a sour note, but I have certainly made two great friends, and learned much along the way. They have a fascinating tumblr blog, Male Submission Art and are organising a [...]

Last year, I went on a long tirade about why I didn’t agree with the Mardi Gras. Let me just repeat something for a moment:
- Mardi Gras began as a political statement in response to the Stonewall riots.
- New Mardi Gras, the body that took over the operation of Mardi Gras, stopped the whole [...]
