Happy 4/20 and Bicycle Day! Let's Go Down the Rabbit Hole!
Hey Fleshbot fans! It's 4/20, the holiday for those of us who enjoy the wacky tabacky, the devil’s lettuce, cannabis, weed, whatever you might call it. Today, interestingly enough is also International Pizza Cake Day (cakes shaped like pizza it seems, not made of pizza, important distinction), National Pineapple (Express?) Upside-Down Cake Day, and National Cheddar Fries Day in the US-- sounds like a case of serious munchies! Hilariously enough especially for us Millennials, it’s also National D.A.R.E. Day, which is celebrated on the third Thursday in April, but this year, absolutely fucking falls on 4/20. Gotta love it.
Also my weird fragrance homies at Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab are debuting a collection themed around weed edibles today, which will make you smell irresistible to your average stoner so be sure to check those festive scents out.
Not to be forgotten of course is yesterday, April 19, which was Bicycle Day, the anniversary of what is thought to be the first ever documented LSD trip, taken by Swiss chemist Albert Hofmann in 1943 when he rode his bike home from work and tripped serious balls while doing so.
Drugs can be enhancements for sex with informed consent all around, of course, and there are lots of stories of the interactions of drugs and sex to be found in various media. Erowid is a great source for info and anecdotes. Obviously, give some thought to what is legal in your area and communicate extensively with all parties involved before starting anything like that. Hell, even getting elevated on your own and having a cool solo sex journey can be a good time, especially if you’ve got some wacky porn to watch.
Today’s two short films for this special Throwback Thursday are picks are from the archives of PinkLabel.tv and they definitely fall into that wacky category. Both films are from Germany and are perfect selections for these high holidays!
My first pick is 2017’s Getting High On My Own Sperm, directed by Shirl Feingold. A handsome yet bored boy called Boris (Gregor Sauer) has decided that he wants to get high, but he also wants to wank. We watch him crank one off to some dirty pics and his load splatters everywhere, including the bowl of his bong. He figures he’ll light it up and take a few rips and see what happens. This is where the crazy fun starts and Boris figures out that his own cum is even more potent as a psychedelic than acid! He falls into his mind with some pretty cool trippy visuals, including a person wearing a chicken head mask and a strap-on, serving me some Subservient Chicken vibes here.
In a very meta twist, he uploads a video of himself smoking his own sperm, which launches him into sperm-smoking influencer stardom. This whole thing does have a downside and it’s a commentary about why greedy humans can’t have nice things, basically. Sperm has become the hottest commodity so we see headlines of sperm-producing folks being kidnapped and drained! Boris is depicted in a room, naked except for a bunch of wires and cables restraining him, a catheter on his dick and a VR headset presumably keeping him aroused with 24/7 smut. It appears someone is harvesting his jizz and making little dick-shaped pills similar to how club drugs come in whimsical shapes and colors. There’s another big downside to the sperm-smoking movement and a cute scientist explains this to us. I won’t spoil it, but, this is a lot of weird fun and I guarantee it’s not something you often see in porn.
My second pick is from more recent history--- Hungarian Tango, released in 2022 and directed by and starring Pina Brutal. A Hungarian Tango is an obscure sex term defined on Urban Dictionary thusly: "When a man pulls out and ejaculates all of the floor after having sex. When the girl gets up to leave, she'll slip around on the fresh nut and would look as if she was dancing." I would not be pleased to say the least if someone did this to me, but, hey, different strokes.
We watch a pair of lovers, played by Brutal and Theo Meow in a black and white silent movie style enter a house which is in Hungary, and strip each other down in a goofy and sexy way. A storm starts outside and here’s where things go kinda wacky, as soon as Pina’s panties end up hanging on a nearby crucifix and Theo’s face is happily entrenched in Pina’s twat, we start the visually trippy parts of this film that are just so much fun. Theo floats among cool psychedelic genital imagery with music in the background and then there are merpeople. Merpeople are awesome! I’m interpreting this as he slipped in her juices and fell down a mental rabbit hole instead of falling on the floor. Theo wakes up and Pina’s asleep next to him but he’s soaking wet and not just from pussy juice and there ends this lovely confection of a film.
