The Iconic Mitchell Brothers Film Catalog Acquired by Mélusine
The iconic Mitchell Brothers film catalog has been acquired by Mélusine. This purchase includes the legendary "Behind the Green Door" and a host of other groundbreaking films the brother producer/filmmakers/free speech advocates created during their prolific run.
The XXX History of Jim & Artie Mitchell
Over a twenty-year span, beginning in the final year of the 1960s, brothers Jim and Artie Mitchell produced and directed more than 200 short and feature films, often collaborating with various talented individuals from their Cinema 7 film collective.
Their landmark 1972 XXX production "Behind the Green Door," 1975's "Sodom & Gomorrah," and 1976's "The Autobiography of a Flea" are just a few of their seminal porn releases. Working from their home base at the now-iconic San Francisco location of their O'Farrell Theatre at 895 O'Farrell Street, the brothers launched and maintained their empire.
They produced their famous films, operated a movie theater chain, worked to bring theatrical pornographic films into the growing home video market, and created live shows at their theater. In 1986, the brothers even confronted the AIDS crisis by promoting safe sex practices and produced the very first safe sex hardcore film,
"Behind the Green Door, The Sequel." Acquisition Specifics
The purchase of the Mitchell Brothers catalog was facilitated by Ashley West, proprietor of the website and podcast The Rialto Report. Many of the Mitchell films that will now be available to the public have not been seen since their original release. Mélusine will oversee the curating and reissuing of the collection, effectively revealing the untold history of the early adult film industry. Building on this, Distribpix and Vinegar Syndrome will reintroduce the Mitchell Brothers catalog on home video starting in November 2025, beginning with the 4K UHD and Blu-ray debut; a deluxe 3-disc edition of the seminal "Behind the Green Door."

A New Twist To An Old Game: The TENGA SPINNER SPN-003
The TENGA SPINNER SPN-003 delivers a unique twist on male masturbation. Pretty much taking up the job of spinning the second you insert yourself into the long jelly-flexi tube, the all-new internal coil here adds immeasurable pleasure as you execute each stroke. You have to be fully invested (inserted all the way) to get the most out of this little machine's jerk-off assistance, but it will get you off in no time if you keep your thrusting steady and firm.

Co-starring with Lulu has never been better. And let's face it, this is as close as any of us is ever likely to get to fucking a porn star. Why not have at it with this well-made, soft and welcoming life-like vagina sleeve.

Gettin' A Hand...From The Handy
Enter the world of state-of-the-art, motorized Scandinavian male masturbation with The Handy. From its big black box discreet packaging to the heavyweight apparatus that holds the cup-like ribbed sleeve that connects you to the unit via its 'TruGrip' band, really what doesn’t this jerk-offer do? Online you can hook up to the 'Handyverse' (QR Code included with the instructions) and synchronize the machine to video and VR headsets.

And with no battery running the motor, you just plug the Handy in, then yourself, and away you go. While this might not be the easiest machine to fit on yourself, and it does tend to get a little heavy the longer you are in it, you pay for what you get here....one of the higher-end motorized male masturbators on the market today.

What Etsy's Sex Toy Ban Means For Buyers and Sellers
If you looked at my wishlist on craft marketplace Etsy, you’d find a few listings for glass dildos and leather restraints by makers who relied on the platform to find customers. However, clicking on a dildo won’t take you to an active product listing, and most of the stores appear to be on hiatus. This isn’t a coincidence, however. This summer, Etsy formally banned sex toys.
