Whatever’s on my mind really.

A peek at illustration inspiring celebrity sexiness, quirky news stories from inherently pornified pop culture, tips, sketchbook and work in progress, reviews and other things of interest; whatever’s on my mind really—which more fool you if you ever take that seriously.

Latest Picks is a sort of mini-blog for daily thoughts and picks. Longer articles, stories & sketches are found in the full-size blog, where indeed Latest Picks are moved when updates to a story make it too large.

Note: Both Latest Picks and Blog are to be retired at the end of September, although both will remain available indefinitely as an archived part of the site. No further updates to past stories will be made.

Taylor Swift: Gonna ca$h in my “Big Reputation” and my John Hancock!!! (tmz.com).

Taylor Swift—Another year, another suspect lookin’ award

Seemingly joining her attempt to trademark “Swiftmas” and “1989” (independent.co.uk, Dec. 2015), and no, she’s not trying to trademark anyone’s “Hancock” or hand-on-cock no matter how much ejaculatory spillage “signature” is undertaken over Tay’s wide eyed, open mouthed surprised expression boat race on ChapFap.

Taytay’s looking to slap “Big Reputation” on a bunch of merch—including sunglasses, cell phone cases, pajamas and gloves. She’s also locking down her “Taylor Swift” signature … for bathrobes, hair pins, dolls and toy glow sticks.

Or rather, as with those extortionate ticket prices and merchandising purchases to forward desperate Swifies in the Taylor Swift Tix queue (Latest Picks 4th Dec. 2017), her company—TAS Rights Management, LLC—is, albeit in her trademarked name.

Still, fan that I am, I wouldn’t say no to a TayTay doll 😃, but as TMZ’s gallery of the “merch” broke on every browser I tried with or without an ad blocker as soon as it hit an advertisement I had to look elsewhere to find one on something which only let me see a bit before telling me I had to sign up to see more (pinterest.co.uk) so that “marketers [can] access the data collected on its users” (Wikipedia).

Isn’t it marvelous what monetising and mobile devices did for the web.
