Once a Naked Blogger?

In a post titled "Once a Stripper, Always a Stripper" Lux Alptraum of BOINKOLOGY says of a promo for a new HBO series.

"It’s being written by smart stripper Diablo Cody, and produced by a man named Steven Spielberg. Great, just what we needed—another reason to watch TV."

Get it? Diablo Cody took her clothes off! That’s all you need to know about her. Isn’t it funny? She was a sex worker, and now she’s a screenwriter! That’s so cute!

It’s a laugh a minute, all right.

Read the quote in context here.

Yeah, I always wonder if my more political posts would get linked back to more often if a) I was ever right or b) if I'd never posted photos of my booty or c) both.

Shoulda thought of that years ago though.

Oh well, since I did and since Lynn Gazis-Sax and Sungold are still celebrating female desire week I've included three of the photos most often marked "favorite" from my Flickr photo stream after the "continue reading" jump.

(Oh yeah, and while the first image isn't as not-work-safe as it appears, you probably still wouldn't want to try explaining it to someone else from work.)

[But first another anecdote about Diablo Cody I've been meaning to reference since, well, last December. So. Last December when the buzz over her movie "Juno" was gearing up, Jessica of Jezebel quoted Cody as saying "When I was a stripper I was never quite pretty enough. I was never one of the beautiful girls. I was never one of the top earners. Suddenly I achieve something in my life that is purely intellectual and purely creative, and I'm being told that it's because I'm pretty." --fl]
