Hocus Pocus

I’ve added to the NAVI section a link to my new blog over on Wizards of the Coast’s website. It will be where I detail my return to playing of the game. Will it be a success or an unmitigated disaster? Who knows, but it sure will probably be fun to watch the carnage.

WordPress 3.0

I don’t really know exactly what this means for you. I don’t really know what it means for me either. But I thought I’d just take the time to mention that WordPress just went up in version number which has got mean something groovy. Now if only I could figure out what.

WordPress Hack

For some reason Shotalicious has been dealing with a hack that has affected a LOT of blogs out there, and Pixiesticks, in spite of being both hosted on the same webhost and using the same blogging application, has not. Perhaps, it’s due to the fact that this site is SO VERY UNPOPULAR. Maybe it’s just pure dumb fucking luck.

Sadly, I have to take down shotalicious until I get a better idea of what the fuck is going on and what to do about it. I can’t allow my site to be used to infect people’s computers with malware or viruses.

While shotalcious was still pretty fresh from a recent reboot, this site has legacy behind it going back far longer than it really has any good reason to. I’ll try to keep on going, with backups or what not. But I certainly am facing the reality that because of faith I put in other companies, I could end up losing everything.

Guess what’s back? Back again? Shotalicious is back. Tell a friend.

The last few months have been cold and dark. Not just in the real world as I’ve mentioned, but also on the series of tubes we’ve come to affectionately call The Internet. Sure, pixiesticks.org has been here to keep you occupied with Very Serious Business like Johnny Weir, the continued attack on gay culture, and random animals found roaming around Atlanta, GA. And the site will continue to be here, just as it has been for the last NINE years.

But PIXIE has decided he really needed to bring sexy/back.

So, with the added bonus of the ease of use that WordPress brings, and the explicit desire to make it more about the delicious art rather than focus on the site as a job or something, shotalicious.org officially reopens today.

Now, it’s technically been back since March 1st. But he wanted to get a head start, kind of surreptitiously posting some things so everyone will have a little bit of stuff to enjoy on day one. So, check your old bookmarks, make sure any links you may have posted places are pointing to the right place, and most importantly make some noise. Because PIXIE is back posting shotalicious boys.

I got a surprise in the mail today: Another royalty check for my first novel Pixiesticks. Yeah, I know! Now, I believe the last time I got a check was about two years ago from iUniverse. It wasn’t for much, about 25 bucks or so, but it is really nice to know that there are still copies being sold (and hopefully read) out there.

Hopefully those same people will google Jonathan Sexton and figure out that I’ve written two more: Later, Skater and Freakshow.

Oh? Did I say two more? I meant three more! Later, Skater: On Tour is still being edited, but the pieces are starting to really fall into place. I think there is no good reason why it can’t come out mid-April just like the ones before. I’m getting really psyched about it and I hope you are too! More royalty checks from Lulu would be nice. I get those one a month still, so copies are still either being sold or downloaded.

Did you know you can download copies of the books?

Not only is it cheaper,
Not only is it instant gratification,
but you’re actually supporting me more!

So check out the novels page and get ready for another healthy dose of hot boy x boy goodness with Later, Skater: On Tour next month.

New banner, new buttons.

Remember how I used to change the banner and buttons over here pretty much every month? Well, guess what bitches? That’s right, your faithful webmaster, PIXIE, has figured out how to get a banner up over here on our brand spank-me new blog page. Isn’t it faboo?

Now that I think I got everything looking pretty much the way I want, maybe now I can relax some and put up some real updates again.

Cosmetic Changes

So today I worked a bit more on the site. I decided to move up the tag-board as I really think it needs to be something you see right away.

I also gave each of the sections over on the right headline labels. Kind of making it more uniform and looking pretty good.

Added a way for you to go back and more easily find posts that were tagged using the Category section (which is underneath the Archives section, both of these are below the NAVI now.)

Re-added the Other Important Links section at the very bottom.

I still want to try to do something with the space at the very top of the page, both in that box that includes the search area and where it says pixiesticks.org. Changing the banner has always been something I’ve enjoyed doing, so I want to figure out how I can continue doing that.

All in all, I’m pleased with how easily this transition occurred. The fact that I was able to import 4,900 posts and half as many comments from Blogger is nothing short of amazing. The fact that for the first time in 9 years this blog has a new layout is equally so. And, I continue to reiterate that not being a part of the Google-monster is really satisfying.

I’m actually thinking now this is could be one of the best things that happened to the site. Hopefully you will too.

Major major work going on right now at pixiesticks.org trying to get past the FTP issue. Please excuse our mess. (And bring Kleenex.)

UPDATE: I got some progress done since the major overhaul earlier today.

I removed a lot of the extra stuff this new template has that I didn’t think we really needed.

I got to import what formerly was the left hand side Navi-Bar. We’ll have to just get used to it being on the right hand side now. Everything over there should be the way it normally is (more or less.) I still have a few more odds-n-ends over there to fix.

When I imported the many many years of posts, I knew that quite a few would not format correctly. I’m going to just be okay with that. Not everything in this world is backwards compatible. We’ll just have to enjoy the fact that going forward, I can hopefully keep everything looking neat and tidy.

The commenting system should be working correctly. It still requires my approval, but that’s the way it was before, so no big deal there. And of course, there is still the Tag-Board if you don’t feel like posting any comments on a particular post. (I would encourage it though as what is said on the Tag-Board is temporary, but comments are forever.

Generally speaking, I think things are going as well as they could be. I don’t know how to make it so that if you are using a bigger screen or anything to change for you. I hope the font sizes are big enough and the colors aren’t too screwy. Those are more things I’m having trouble figuring out how to edit in the CS Style Sheets. But I think I’ve made some good progress since starting this project overnight.

Eventually, once I feel that things ARE running smoothly, I’m going to fix the old blog.html page so that it does a faster redirect. I’ll also fix the main index page. I’ll go around and fix other pages too. The main thing was to get the blog imported, functioning, and reasonably looking decent.

PLEASE let me know what you think, or if you encounter something that’s either broken or just not looking right. If I can fix it, I will. If I can’t, I’ll raise my fist and curse at it angrily and then probably let it go. But I’m gonna need your help on this.

While I’m not completely freaking out about it just yet, I certainly am NOT looking forward to implementing any solutions I may find in keeping this website going the way it has for almost 9 years.

My webmastering skills aren’t that great, so I’m not sure exactly what I will do, but I know that I want to keep doing this.

Pixiesticks.org has survived being removed from the internets twice, so I’m sure we will survive this too. But Google sure isn’t making it easy. (They’re complaining about resources? They’re fucking Google, how many more resources do they want?)

Waiting…

In a recent email I wrote to a long lost friend. Actually, he’s not long nor lost. Well, he may be long — I never got to check and ew — but he’s certainly not lost. He moved to Maine, you see. Anyway, where was I? Oh shit, still the beginning? Well then, lemme start over.

I wonder if I’m like a circling airliner, just waiting for my runway. Ugh, metaphors? Come on, Jonathan, you’re a talented writer but that talent comes from NOT doing stupid shit like using terrible metaphors. Start over again!

Fine, fine!

I am thirty-one years old. I live south of Atlanta, GA with my mother, my sister, and her boyfriend whom I dubbed Kid Rock Boyfriend. I don’t know what the deal is, but I think I’m waiting for something.

I have a job that I like most days that I go. I think to myself, honestly, isn’t that more than I can say for many people out there? Often, I’ll make more than 15 dollars an hour, and yet just as often, I will mishandle the money so poorly, I’ll barely make it from month-to-month with my simple but very real bills.

There are a few people I have keyed into my phone that I consider my friends. Sometimes I can’t get a hold of them, and I don’t ever see them as often as I want to. Some because they don’t live here and exist only on the internets, some because they have busy lives and I don’t think they’re waiting for anything like I am.

I don’t have a boyfriend. I don’t even have prospects for boyfriends, though you may find me occasionally making out with someone when I got to the bar or nightclub. I’m not exactly sure why that is, but then again, I do live with my mom, my sister, and her Kid Rock Boyfriend. I think more importantly though, I have an aura about me that is warding people away most of the time.

I used to run a website for one of my interests. I closed it when I felt like it was taking up too much of my time without really being all that rewarding. The anime characters used to turn me on, but I stopped really seeing them in that way after a while. Unfortunately, because I closed the site down, I lost pretty much all of my online popularity.

It will absolutely make sales of my upcoming fourth novel decline. I kind of took that into consideration when I pulled the plug, but also kind of ignored it to my own chagrin. Part of me thought that it didn’t really matter. I always said, if I sold one copy that’s all that matters. I’ve also said that if only one person came to pixiesticks.org, it’d be worth it.

I lie to myself, but never to others.

I think I’m waiting on something, but I don’t know what it could be. It’s not like I don’t try and alter the above to make for a more rewarding experience on the planet. I’m about to start editing that upcoming novel. I have new hobbies I find a lot of interest in. I try to approach people and try to make their lives more interesting either as a friend or French Kissing partner. I want my home life situation to be as painless as possible since I still have to stay here, and the same goes for my work.

So… really… what is it?
I don’t know.
Maybe part of it is just this. Putting down what is going on in my life into words and posting them onto pixiesticks. I only post personal posts when something I consider interesting is happening in my life.

But that wasn’t always the case. I was younger… I wrote more about feelings, dreams, desires. Older now, I still have feelings, dreams, desires, but I have to say, it seems they are dull and not colored so brilliantly with idealism. I seem to save that for my novels, as someone critically said about “Freakshow” once.

I am waiting for something. But it’s not a passive form of waiting. It’s not like I am sitting here, watching the calender change. It’s an active form of waiting, if there is such a thing. It’s like I’m trying to hold my ground and maybe even occasionally darting a hand out to claw forward, all while waiting and trying and hoping that things will get better for me.

You’ve Got Moviesign.

The new movie review page is all wired up and ready to go. I decided to host it via blogspot so that it didn’t require so much muss and fuss like pixiesticks.org does behind the scenes.

My goal is to watch more movies in theatres, and more movies overall. Reviewing movies is something I’ve done for a long time and it never ceases to be entertaining for me. While movie critics have popped up over the internets, I like to think that there is always room for one more. Especially someone who’s been in the game before and is glad to make a return.

New banner, New buttons.

As you can see, we’re back to having new buttons and banners around here. Sorry to say I won’t be bringing back the snowfall. LOL. That kind of got out of hand in the past, and I don’t see a reason to really annoy people with it again this year.

I did bring back the shota button, but as you’ll quickly notice, it does not lead to shotalicious.org. That site is dead, people. I killed it. It was so much work. So much hard hard work and while I loved doing it for you wonderful people, I just couldn’t enjoy it myself anymore. Okay? I know it’s hard to let it go, but you got to start the process.

Or you could just go to the site I link and enjoy whatever they got there.

In news that will be sure to make Paul happy, the Tag-Board from the now closed shotalicious is being schlepped back over here. And it’s bringing it’s premium makeover with it. To keep the spam bots away, give me more moderation tools, and those uber sexy avatars (yes you can keep posting shota in them) I’ll be continuing to keep the per-cost version of the tag-board.

The rules kind of need to remain the same. We still can’t post links because I can’t control where they go. We can’t talk about real life shota because that just is asking for trouble. And it’s not a hook-up chat room either.

Otherwise, I really hope that people continue using it here. We have a lot we can learn from what each other has to say and sometimes anonymous posting on the internets is the only way some of us speak out / get heard.

NaNoWriMo 2009

The website officially reloads on October 1st, but why not sign up early and beat the rush? Then join me on November 1st as we start down the path to completing a 50,000 word novel!

Also: The splash page for pixiesticks has been updated to give more attention to my novel writing. It mentions a major announcement on my 4th novel is coming soon, so you know you don’t wanna miss that.

Relatively soon from now, there are going to be some changes made to pixiesticks.org. Don’t freak out though! The website isn’t going anywhere and the blog is going to be here and shotalicious.org is still going to be there too.

What I’m going to do is rotate the focus of the site more towards the novels so that I can use pixiesticks more as a website to direct people curious about my writing.

Currently with the splash page, everyone gets pretty much dumped here on the blog. That was all fine and good when I didn’t give a crap about who was ever reading my website. But then the yaoi and later shota started making me a bit internet famous. So much so that I had to create a separate site for that stuff.

Now, I think with three novels done, two in the last two years, and a fourth to be written in November, I really need to either a) create a new website for that material which I really can’t afford to do or b) re-appropriate this website for that purpose.

I appreciate your patience when the changes do occur, but I assure you, nothing essentially will change.

New buttons. New banner.

Previously I shipped any images that weren’t necessarily safe for work over to shotalicious to be admired. Well, August (which is in a few days yanno) will mark an end to that policy.

While I’m not looking to reunite this site with the yaoi and shota it was previously hosting, I thought why not, at least briefly, shake things up a little over here.

I feel so… renewed.

pixiesticks.org’s domain was renewed today until August 6th, 2011.

Amazon managers found that an employee who happened to work in France had filled out a field incorrectly and more than 50,000 items got flipped over to be flagged as “adult,” the source said. (Technically, the flag for adult content was flipped from ‘false’ to ‘true.’)

“It’s no big policy change, just some field that’s been around forever filled out incorrectly,” the source said.

Amazon employees worked on the problem well past midnight, and then handed it over to an international team, he said.

Seattle-based Amazon.com sells millions of items, so the 57,000 affected represent just a tiny portion of the company’s selection. But Amazon’s perception problem was enormous, and aggravated by the company’s official description of the problem as a “glitch.”

(Ed note: I just checked over on Amazon.com my first novel “Pixiesticks” which is available over there (the others are exclusively on Lulu.com) and its searchability and sales-rank have been restored.

If you care, I’m #533,595 in Books at the moment.

As for this latest, let’s call it Version 3.5 of Amazon’s response. I’m not so sure it holds water. Many other items didn’t get taken off that absolutely would have been tagged adult. The fact this has been happening since February is also bothersome. And finally, anonymous source? Haven’t we learned anything about Anonymous?)

The number one word being used over and over on Twitter at this moment is “AmazonFail.”

Why?

Users are angry about a perceived anti-gay policy that removes lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and transgender books from appearing in sales rankings.

Author Mark Probst writes on his blog that two days ago, “mysteriously, the sales rankings disappeared from two newly-released high profile gay romance books: ‘Transgressions’ by Erastes and ‘False Colors’ by Alex Beecroft. Everybody was perplexed. Was it a glitch of some sort? The very next day HUNDREDS of gay and lesbian books simultaneously lost their sales rankings, including my book ‘The Filly.’”

Probst eventually got a response from Amazon.com Advantage member services, he says.

In consideration of our entire customer base, we exclude “adult” material from appearing in some searches and best seller lists. Since these lists are generated using sales ranks, adult materials must also be excluded from that feature.

Hence, if you have further questions, kindly write back to us.

Best regards,

More than 800 people have signed a petition in strong protest of Amazon’s “adult policy” on thepetitionsite.com.

Update: There is now the phrase Amazon Rank that’s popped up in our lexicon for the moment.

Update: Here is a really great blog entry about Making Books Disappear.

Update: Here is an excellent article about Twitter’s impact on the news story really made a difference in just mere moments.

(Ed note: Indeed my own first novel, “Pixiesticks” has been de-ranked on Amazon — not that it was ranked very highly. More annoyingly if you try and search for it without specifically doing a search in the book category it no longer will show up. AmazonFail! LuluFTW!)

New Novels Page

I’ve redone the old works page in an attempt to really jazz it up and make it look all pretty. You can find the link where you used to, over on the left hand side. It’s called “Novels” now instead of “Works” though you can still find the poetry and short stories there too.

Feed on me.

If I’ve done it right you should be able to subscribe to pixiesticks’ blog as a feed. Apparently you could have done this the whole time over on shotalicious. I’m not really one to know much about feeds, though I’m sure they’re a lot more useful than tweets. (Or so I’ve been told.)

Pixiesticks got it start 8 years ago as part of a movie review website I did with my then best friend. I was sort of newly out of the closet and I wanted to speak my mind about a host of topics. I also wanted to see if I couldn’t bust some stereotypes in the process.

I think when you’re a young gay boy, you tend to believe that there is a certain way you have to act, certain things you have to enjoy or dislike, and have a general clone-like persona. None of this is actually true.

With my own domain, I felt I had the freedom to say what I wanted, no matter the consequences. It was wonderful when the emails started coming, even though some of them were critical of me as long as they had something interesting to say, it always gave me a thrill and still does eight years later.

When I discovered yaoi, my heart soared. I fell in love with the genre instantly, and became even more enamored of shota when I found that sub-genre a few years later. Posting yaoi on pixiesticks however created some problems. I lost my web hosting twice. Both times, when you’ve realized what has happened to your internet world, your heart just shatters. All that time spent. All of those files. Sure, more often than not they were replaceable with backups, but sometimes not. And it’s a great undertaking to put it all back up again.

Last year I made the extremely controversial move to push all of my yaoi content to its own domain. If I lose it, at least I won’t lose this place was my thinking. Shotalicious.org was born and I had a lot of people angry with me. Fortunately, more were thrilled. And as time went by, the negative voices were drowned out by the growing horde of thousands of fans.

Pixiesticks’ ratings, however have plummeted. Updates are not as frequent, though rarely do more than a couple of days go by without something being said, link given, interesting website, or video, or news posted.

I think my website is just as relevant as it ever has been. While it may have lost its sexy explicit anime content, not a day goes by that I don’t think about the reason why I started pixiesticks.org. And I am ever thankful for those who come here and enjoy what I’ve created.

8 Years. It’s almost as old as Google. Here’s to 8 more.

Holy shit. Can you really believe it? I know I can’t. But it’s true. On March 11th, 2009, your favorite website for the preservation of young gay boys is turning eight years old!

While much has changed, a few things remain the same.

Last year, I opened shotalicious.org as a place to post my yaoi and new enthusiasm for the shota sub-genre. It would serve as a lil’ brother website to this one and would provide a bit of comfort should our webhost decide to take it down. I’d still have this site up and running and not lose years of precious history.

In the last year, shotalicious.org’s reach and hits have skyrocketed. Nearly 10,000 people visit the site EVERY SINGLE DAY. That’s far and above the expectations I had for the site and I’m so happy that now with the addition of a tag-board and Facebook group, it seems a sense of community is finally forming there.

But what about pixiesticks? What about the site that’s been here for me and for young gay boys for the last 8 years?

I’m doing what I’ve always felt I needed to do. I post the news stories that I feel affect where my interests are. And I also continue to give my commentary on such events. There is also the posts that deal directly with my life and what is happening in it that many find compelling because it gives them another perspective of what they have going on themselves.

Pixiesticks.org has absolutely helped me live my life. And judging from the emails I’ve read, judging from the friendships I’ve formed, and the comments written here, I know that pixiesticks.org IS still one of the best gay blogs still around after EIGHT FUCKING YEARS!

So allow me to say, Happy Birthday to my own site. It’s amazing it’s lasted this long and I hope that we’ll be here for many more years to come.

Finally, because pixiesticks.org turns 8, shotalicious.org is turning 1. Awww, isn’t it so cute! Expect to find more of what you come there for throughout the month of March.

Thanks for all of your support in the past and your continued support in the future. I love you all.

–PIXIE

Moving in the short short month of February, most folks start melting at least their hearts from winter’s harshness. Here at pixiesticks, I’ll be trying harder to get on editing “Freak Show” so I can make my publishing deadline.

Remember, that special loved one in your life by giving them a copy of “Later, Skater” available exclusively at lulu.com.

I’m also going to try and insert more of myself in the news blog postings as well. Hope you have a great Valentine’s Day and rest of February.

Tag-Board goes bye bye.

The Ye Old Tag-Boardâ„¢ that has been located on pixiesticks.org for a long time now has been carted off to shotalicious.org to better serve the needs of the viewers there. It’s been upgraded with new features too. I’m sorry if this is any inconvenience to anyone. Note you can still email me, or leave comments on blog postings.

New banner. New buttons.

Well here we are: 2009. The subject I think on everyone’s mind is okane. Known to us Americans as “The Shit We Don’t Have Right Now.”

As the United States helped lead the Entire Fucking World into a global recession, I think it’s time to refocus on our budgets and start piling up the cash. I know personally I’m not that great on the subject, but I’ll try and whip it into shape.

Other New Year’s resolutions for myself are as follows:

Lessen my smoking habit. Note: I’ve made quitting attempts before and I’m not asking that of myself this time. But returning to less and less is a favorable option at this juncture.

Dance more, drink less. Alot of my money goes to having a good time at Heretic. Why not go back to the way it used to be and still go and have a good time but dance more. This will not only help my money situation, but also my health as I’ll be moving my groove thing. I may also find this helps me jiggy in other situations as I used to. Read: Have some fucking sex.

Not cut my hair. This one is kind of the easiest, of course. But other than trims, I’m going to strive to not cut my already lengthy hair in 2009. Just call me Sampson.

Feel free to post your New Years Resolutions on this post, or boast about how you achieved your goals from last year. Happy New Year.

Embracing 2009.

New Years Eve has arrived. Hope you have some great plans to celebrate. There should be safety kept in mind, yes yes. And get to cracking on day 1 of those soon to be failed resolutions.

I’ll be taking a few days off from the sites as I normally do around this time of year. We’ll get back to posting very soon, however, in 2009.

Take care everybody.

Publishing Problems

Over the last several days, we’ve had problems publishing to both pixiesticks and shotalicious. Here is a solution that’s helped me and other people so if you happen to have this same problem (or I need to look it back up for myself later).

Before December 23rd if you published blogs to your own domain via Blogger.com using FTP, you had to put ftp.yoursitename.com in the publishing options tab.

Now, many people including myself have had success in publishing by changing it to www.yoursitename.com

No idea why.

I got this in my inbox tonight.

Beginning December 11, 2008, the Amazon Honor System will be discontinued. This means that PayBoxes on member websites and PayPages on Amazon.com will no longer function.

That means that handy dandy link on the left hand side that some of you used in the past in order to donate cash money to your lovable, hard working, and downright smexy webmaster isn’t going to be there anymore.

I’m not sure how I’ll be able to take donations in the future. I’m sure PayPal is an option in some capacity but I’m not quite exactly happy about the idea of throwing my support for such a corrupt company such as that.

How disappointing!

New banner, new buttons.

Yeah, they’re like over a week late, but in honor of my NaNoWriMo project this year, Pixiesticks has been given its monthly paint job. Take a ride on the carousel, enjoy funnel cakes, and don’t get scared by the crazy fun house. This month we’re all about the carnival!

New Banner. New Buttons.

With the impending arrival of Pico x Chico x Coco in the next week or so, I believe it’s safe to say that shota has begun to come into its own. While it will always raise eyebrows higher than even yaoi, I have hope that this new release (hehehe, I said release) becomes known as the Holy Grail of delicious shota on shota on shota action.

Happy October!

Quick news and notes.

* Today is the last day you can vote in the current Pretty Boy Poll

* Related perhaps, please keep the *chan conversations off the tagboard. I don’t want to gain notoriety with those folks. It would only end poorly for my sites, I’m sure.

* Boku No Sexual Harassment OAV 3 is now available over on shotalicious.org

* Any donations you’d like to make to help me get to DragonCon and/or Anime Weekend Atlanta this year would be much appreciated. Buying a book gets you a book and me 4 bucks so maybe it’s time to finally get your copy?

* Stupid sexy Randy Orton got into a motorcycle accident just after he was cleared medically to return to the WWE and now is out -another- 3-6 months. Damn you Orton!

* I really thought the Opening Ceremony for Beijing’s Olympics were the most beautiful thing ever televised.

* In Soviet Russia, Georgia will become part of you. (By force if necessary, apparently.)

* Happy (belated) Birthday Elf.

* Over on the secret Pico x Chico x Coco Hype site, the AMV for Boku No Pico has been fixed to where it now includes sound. Yeah, it kinda helps to have sound in an anime MUSIC video.

This is your last puzzle to try and figure out how to break into the shotalicious secret stash area. If you couldn’t figure out Pico’s cryptogram… If you couldn’t figure out Chico’s clock brain teaser… Maybe you’ll fare better with Coco’s rebus puzzle.

As always don’t give out any answers or hints in the tag-board or over on shotalicious.org’s message board. Keep it fun for everyone.

Full publish underway

Ever go to the archives and notice a little weirdness when it comes to the template. That’s because as cool as blogger is, it kind of fails a bit when it comes to updating the site and archival and stuff.

It’s two biggest problems is:

1) New template design has to be published to EVERY SINGLE OLD POST ENTRY. This takes longer than like a complete viewing of Titanic (which The Dark Knight is never going to beat in the box office).

2) Despite every post not being labeled with every label, blogger feels the need to REPUBLISH EVERY LABEL HTML FILE. This is especially infuriating since that makes every post I post on her regardless of how many or how few labels I use, currently over 100 MEGS worth of publishing has to take place.

Anyway, what I’m trying to say is tonight I’m doing a full publish which should knock out some of the oddities in the archives. (Spoiler: This isn’t going to make any old pictures that currently are broken come back. They are gone for good.)

Oh shit! Over on the shotalicious.org video page you have the oppertunity to download the first half of the landmark uncensored yaoi video. But please don’t direct link it anywhere, and if you already have it, don’t be downloading it again! We need all the bandwidth we can have. Especially since I’ve heard that Pico’s code is related to the upcoming Pico x Chico X Coco video release in October?

What’s that? You’ve not taken a look at his love letter up above?

Here are the hints so far:

*It’s a code.
*One that uses letters to replace other letters.
*It starts with VVV which means it probably is a web address and V=W.
*If it’s a web address it should end in .html shouldn’t it?
*And if it’s a web address the 8 letters per line shouldn’t matter.
*And unless PIXIE bought a new domain, it should be either on pixiesticks or shotalicious site right?

Hmmm.

Looks like Pico is back with a new game he’d like to play with us. What IS he talking about in that moonspeak of his? If you don’t recall, the last time the delicious trap showed up it was to let us all in on a game of Rock-Paper-Scissors in order to get the keys to a code. That eventually let people know that shotalicious.org was coming online.

He looks like he’s giving us some code right off the bat to start with this time around. So what could it mean?

A little fight in ya.

I like that.

Hopefully. I had to dig really deep into my computer to find an old template that I could gank the code from since ganking it from my uncle’s site didn’t work. It’s late and I’ve had a long weekend which I’ll tell you all about tomorrow.

I asked how long have you been visiting my site.

19 people were here for the very first time and boy did they get their cherry popped.
72 people said less than 6 months which shows we’re growing all the time.
254 people and the most popular answer was 1 to 2 years. Thanks for sticking it out.
107 people said 3-4 years which means they know way too much personal shit about me.
14 people said 5-6 years and that is an honor to have had your attention this long.
30 people said SEVEN YEARS and each of you are clearly insane.
