  • Some Midsummer Nights' Sex Comedies, video recommendations from a time when on-screen skin was actually fun.

  • Interviews with the operators of two DIY web-porn sites.

  • "I Was Corrupted by the Monastery," a teenage memoir of sex, drugs, and disco circa 1983.

  • "Naked Croquet," a fictional gay self-discovery saga.

  • Our pal Donna Barr's strategy for post-corporate survival: Become a Hunter-Gatherer.

  • Some reasons why this down doesn't suck, dammit!
