A Random Roundup of Happenings at SmutMag

I’m deep into “Just do it” mode, but it also has me running around a little maniacal. Let’s take a beat to see what’s happened recently, and what happens next.

Smackdown: I’m reigniting my parasocial feud with Taylor Swift.

I’ve said it on Mastadon, I’ve said it on the radio, and I’m saying it again and again: Taylor Swift has an obligation to fund artist housing in America. The arts are in crisis. The average musician who calls themselves a professional makes a mere $5K a year. AI is eating those piddly little jobs as well. And somehow she has gotten out of this mess with $9 Billion while the rest of us starve, while the arts starve, while democracy starves–and while she may be fine, she is not a stunning genius, which would have to be a starting line for such wealth. She made herself the most (and mostly only) powerful songwriter on the planet. She must fund the future. And the best (only) way to do that is to give artists homes that they own. She could start with half of her wealth, $800,000,000 and build 10 story units in the 349 cities that have over 100,000 people, turn them into co-ops, and give them to artists to keep and pass on to other artists.

Taylor Swift could do this and have $800,000,000 left to retire on. That’s not too fucking bad.

I understand that there are a lot of causes. But she made her fortune calling herself an artist, a poet, a songwriter, a musician. And she’s the ONLY one who has made a fortune.

And she’s simply not that great.

It was one thing when she was coming up, to say, “Get that bag, girl.” But now she’s a 35 year old woman with 1.6 billion dollars in a country where there is no arts funding. AT ALL.

She made a decision to amass this wealth and power as a songwriter. If she does not put it to work for the future of the arts, she is a tyrant, as guilty of starving the arts as Elon Musk. She cannot be the singular artist, anymore than our lives should be ruled by one tech company that rules all.

I’ve spent a long time going after the tech lords. But we exist in different realms. In this wrestling match, my natural foe is America’s sweetheart, Taylor Swift.

And by the end of the smackdown, I aim to take her crown, her title, and her boyfriend’s giant dong.

I’ll say this for the surveillance state: I recorded this on my phone, playing and singing at the same time, and just threw a reverb on it. Microphones have gotten great. Sigh.

I’ve begun my erotic novel, and you can hear Excerpts on SmutMag Radio

Our After Dark programming begins at 10pm PST. Every time a new piece is made, you can find it on the air that week, and replayed on the weekends.

But if you aren’t a night owl, you can also get it delivered to your email piece by piece as it comes out, when you subscribe to he newsletter. On the top right of the home page, there’s a button that says subscribe. Just click it, and never encounter a paywall around here.

If you ask me erotic audio is the best fantasy experience there is. First of all, you can listen on your headphones any time, anywhere; secondly, you can fill in the details with scenes from your own life while you listen, without being distracted by hasty production values; and finally: sound gets into your whole body, while visuals tend to mindfuck you. It’s a much more sensual, less manic experience.

Companion Materials for Erotic Audios

However, for those of you who like things full sensory, then I suggest giving Femme Fatale Films a try (this is mainly for gentlemen into BDSM.) Why? Because Europeans make scary dommes; these dommes seem to know what they’re doing; they do a good job of knowing their niche; They look good doing it; tons of content, that’s of high quality–rare for a small porn studio.

Also, they don’t have a bad affiliate marketing program. When you support them, you support me. So make your porn the porn of MY choice. And thank you kindly:)

And as long as we’re pushing products, and to continue celebrating Travis Kelce’s penis, if there’s one sex toy that every person on the planet should own, it’s the Magic Wand. While it’s true that most people gravitate towards it’s intensity, it’s actually about the most versatile sex toy for external play there is. Too intense? Try this: Turn it on, and strap it to your thigh. This creates intense frustration and fills your entire body with vibrating sensation. Whether brushed over the clothes, mounted, or pressed right into your most sensitive areas, this toy can increase the intensity of any sexual encounter, solo or with a partner(s), no matter your kink.

“What the Fuck is Wrong With You?” and other new shows on SmutMag Radio

If you’re a fan of the rants and raves on SmutMag, this is the show for you. What is it? This is where I go to be fed up about some of the things you’re fed up with, too. This week? It’s the self-destroying bigotry towards Boomers that’s got my goat.

I’ll also be experimenting with going live this week! My hope is to have things narrowed down by the new year, as I continue to see what hits and what doesn’t on the airwaves. In some ways, now is the most exciting time to listen–you never know what will come next, and this is the time to shape what SmutMag Radio will be.

Do you have an idea for a show you’d like to hear from me? Do you have an album you’d like to hear?

And, of course, if you just want to support great independent arts and Media, stock up on your Bones and spend them later!

I’m really trying to get siding on my cabin before winter truly takes hold and destroys what’s gone up so far. I can’t believe how far my personal artist housing project has come, and every step we take together is a step closer to being able to get my mom up here, and in her very own bedroom. I’ve had some good news this week, regarding appliances for the main house: I’m able to obtain them all for free from a neighbor’s house that is being remodeled. Whoo-hoo! It’s incredible how much can be done for free when you get to know your neighbors and are willing to pitch in to help one another. But there are some materials that simply have to be purchased. When you support SmutMag, you not only build yourself an arts and crafts savings account, you not only fund an internet radio station that answers to itself and provides arts and entertainment that is grounded in time and space with no scrolling required, but you also create a solid foundation for me, my family and for a future for independent arts in my community.
