SPANKING ON TV #7

His Mother's Lover (2012) d. Nica Noelle

This film is set in the early 1930s and follows an American boy struggling with his homosexuality while attending boarding school in England. When Robert is caught in a passionate tryst with another lad, he’s beaten by the Headmaster with his own belt and given a four-week suspension. Back at home Robert meets his mother’s new fiancée, the older, nurturing Daniel. Feeling an instant, mutual attraction, the two look for ways to get closer, while dark family secrets begin to emerge.

Well, where to start with this… It’s basically a gay soft porn film with delusions of grandeur (it’s even got a mournful score)—but you’re probably well ahead of me and worked that out from the synopsis. The fact that the director is feted as a trend-setter and "the most important adult film director of her era" says it all really, although all the hyperbole is undermined somewhat when you find out she works for Lust Cinema.

Obviously, the main thrust (ho, ho) of the movie isn’t the corporal punishment, but that’s what we’re here for. It’s an American production, so of course they get British schools totally wrong (I’m not sure what Sting Pictures’ excuse is lol).

In this scene Robert finds out he’s going to get a flogging (sic) and a suspension, and must take off his own belt and give it the Head, who surprisingly doesn’t seem to have any suitable implements of his own tucked away. Robert is told to drop his trousers and bend over the desk to be belted, at which point the Head removes his jacket, loosens his tie and rolls up his sleeves to show us He Means Business. I was caned and slippered at school and none of my teachers felt the need to turn into Bruce Willis, so I kind of feel like I missed out. Anyway, he’s belted for real eight times (does that count as a flogging?) and then off he goes to meet mum’s fiancée, who I’m certain will turn out to be a top bloke (sorry).

Not much is known about youthful lead Chase Austin other than he’s clearly over 18. This was his first big break, and he went on to feature in such cinematic masterpieces as He’s Tempted by Cock and For Your Eyes Only (no, not that one). The Head should probably be on a list somewhere and Ian Whitcomb, who plays him, delivers his lines like he’s recovering from a stroke. Meanwhile, whilst Chase looks young enough to play a convincing schoolboy, Travis Irons, who plays his young lover at school, is anything but. I’m reminded of that bloke Brian McKinney who sneaked back into his old high school in his 30s to resit his exams.

Here’s the clip for your eyes only (sorry, Chase):

Dallas Navigator: a guide to the city, from cocktails to cowboy culture

Cowboy culture is currently captivating the world in a new way.

Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter album has dominated the charts this year, rodeo fashion is back in vogue, and several Texan cities have witnessed an economic and population boom over the past decade.

And of the set, it’s Dallas that’s caught our attention.

Together with its sister city, Fort Worth, it forms the largest metroplex in Texas and the Southern US, and DFW International Airport is the third largest in the world.

With multiple cultural projects in the works, an exploding art market, and the most hotels currently under construction of any city in the US, there’s much more to the ‘Big D’ than the rodeo — although that’s still a huge draw, too.

So whether you’re in town for business, pleasure or an extended layover, here are our top spots to explore in Dallas.

What to see and do in Dallas

Where to stay

Hôtel Swexan

Hôtel Swexan (Swiss meets Texan) is Dallas’s most anticipated and unique new hotel of the past few years.

It may occupy a shiny new 22-storey glass tower by Kengo Kuma, but the interiors overseen by Harwood International founder Gabriel Barbier-Mueller have an old-world aesthetic – particularly in the many restaurants and lounges.

The hotel’s 134 guest rooms include eight individually designed suites, and the rooftop pool bar offers panoramic views across downtown.

Hôtel Swexan is located at 2575 McKinnon St, hotelswexan.com

Where to eat and drink

Bar Colette

Melon and Prosciutto aperitivo at Bar Colette

Melon and Prosciutto aperitivo at Bar Colette

Bar Colette offers a moody, contemporary vibe for stylish young professionals to enjoy a variety of original craft cocktails, like the tequila-based Rhu-Barbie, or one of the lighter Two Sip options.

Opened in 2023 to rave reviews, the space was founded and designed by brothers Brandon and Henry Cohanim, who looked to 1960s Italian for decor inspiration.

Along with the cocktails and an extensive spirits and wine list, the bar menu includes an indulgent Caviar Waffle.

Bar Colette is located at 3699 McKinney Ave #306, barcolette.com

Georgie Steakhouse

Designed by Brooklyn-based GRT Architects, the studio behind interiors of New York’s buzziest restaurants, Georgie is a reimagining of the traditional Texan steakhouse both in terms of style and menu.

Burnt orange velvet booths, rattan and tambour panelling and curved architectural elements set the scene for chef Curtis Stone’s award-winning cuisine.

Georgie Steakhouse is located at 4514 Travis St Suite 132, georgiedallas.com

What to do

Rodeo Bar

You can’t come to Texas without visiting a saloon, and Rodeo Bar in the downtown Adolphus Hotel offers the perfect balance of chic and kitsch.

The joint first opened in 1981, but four decades later has received a refresh by local studio Swoon that maintains the 1980s honky tonk vibe, but has upped the style stakes.

Neon artworks, leather armchairs and the jukebox all retain the original cowboy attitude, while the bar and grill are now accompanied by a basement entertainment space.

Whether this is your first rodeo or not, you’re guaranteed a fun time.

Rodeo Bar is located at 1321 Commerce St, adolphus.com

Winspear Opera House

Located in the Arts District of downtown Dallas, this futuristic 2,200-seat performance venue was designed by Foster+Partners as a 21st-century reinterpretation of a traditional opera house.

From the exterior, the transparent core of the building glows red from within and pierces through an extensive square canopy of steel that surrounds and shades the building and its landscaped park.

Inside, a giant crystalline chandelier hangs above the stalls and balconies are wrapped in gold leaf.

Winspear Opera House is located at 2403 Flora St, attpac.org

Where to shop

Miron Crosby

Searching for a pair of authentic and stylish cowboy boots? Look no further than Miron Crosby, a luxury craft-forward brand with an equally chic store in Highland Park Village, designed by Gill Brown of Maplewood and Javier Burkle of Burkle Creative.

Created by sisters Lizzie Means Duplantis and Sarah Means, who grew up on a West Texas cattle ranch, this Dallas-based operation carries men, women, kids and even bridal styles – all made with traditional production techniques and offering customisation too.

Miron Crosby is located at 25 Highland Park Village #201, mironcrosby.com

Nasher Sculpture Center Shop

The store located inside the Renzo Piano-designed Nasher Sculpture Center is an art lover’s paradise, stocking a wide variety of books on historic and contemporary sculptors – many of which accompany the museum’s fêted exhibition programme – and design-led objects that make perfect gifts and keepsakes.

The interiors by Charles Sparks + Company are intentionally minimalist, in keeping with Piano’s travertine and glass architecture, and the space acts as a connector between the public realm, and the museum’s galleries and garden.

Nasher Sculpture Center Shop is located at 2001 Flora St, nashersculpturecenter.org

Packers presumably fill holes on young roster

Green Bay Packers’ general manager Brian Gutekunst completed the 2024 NFL Draft Saturday by taking the best player available in each round. Coincidentally, those players all match up to the perceived weak areas of the Packers’ roster. How lucky was that?

Gutey did admit need is always there subconsciously so they may have probably swayed a few decisions. But overall I like what the Packers did. I am no draft nut so I can only opine what I’ve read since the draft, and for the most part is has been pretty good for the Packers. Everybody is a star on draft day and you never know who will be standout or who will be the bust.

One of the guys that standout to me is first round pick Jordan Morgan. I hope the Packers put him at left tackle and let him compete there before they start moving him around. Dude is a left tackle. If he wins the job, great, if not then see what you can do. I predict he’ll be the opening day starter at left tackle.

Another opening day starter will be linebacker Edgerrin Cooper. It will be interesting to see how they use him with Quay Walker. That’s a lot of speed for new defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley to play with. And more than likely safety Javon Bullard will be a starter at safety. Another Georgia product he seems to fit Hafley’s defense to a t. With Xavier McKinney this is going to be a much improved safety room.

From the rest of the guys l like the center Jacob Monk, and I’ll be curious to see what they do with the  massive Travis Glover. We’ll all be curious to see what they do with running back MarShawn Lloyd. I’m guessing they want him to possibly bring that long run capability Aaron Jones had that Josh Jacobs doesn’t necessarily have. He’s a 5′ 9″ bowling ball of a running. Can’t wait to see him the huddle next to the 6′ 6″ Glover.

The Packers had the luxury to draft the way they did and the competition will be fierce in training camp. Especially coming off a successful first season under quarterback Jordan Love. Exciting times for Packers’ fans.

I'm following @eternal-infamy's prime example of procrastination, by doing some incorrect quotes:

Evan, holding a python: Guys I impulsively bought a snake, what do I name him? Andy: You did WHAT? Raven: William Snakepeare Sparkle: I love you guys, you're the best thing that's happened to me. Ezra: We're the best thing that's ever happened to you? Sparkle: Yes! Willow: I'm starting to feel a little sorry for you.

Raven: I'm a reverse necromancer. Adrian: Isn't that just killing people? Raven: Ah, technicality.

Andy: You love me, right? Adrian: Normally, I’d say yes without hesitation, but I feel like this is going somewhere and I don’t like it.

With the Atlanta Braves sweeping the New York Yankees in this recent series, all hope is lost in the Yankees making the postseason, even in a wild-card spot.

Game one of this series started as promising with the Yankees scoring first in the first inning. That inning began with 3B Isiah Kiner-Falefa in the leadoff spot getting a base hit. IKF would score on CF Harrison Bader's groundout to SS Orlando Arcia to 1B Matt Olson.

Usually when the Yankees score first in a game, they go on to win it. This game would end differently. In the bottom of the first inning, 3B Austin Riley hit a solo home run off of RHP Clarke Schmidt to tie the game 1-1.

Schmidt was born and raised in Georgia and grew up a Braves fan. He had over 50 family members and friends in attendance that night. You would think that would motivate him to pitch well, but the Baseball Gods would have other plans.

In the top of the second inning, IFK hit an RBI single, giving the lead back to the Yankees 2-1. In trying to stretch a single into a double, IFK overslid on second base and was tagged out for the third out.

At the bottom of the second inning, 2B Nicky Lopez hit a two-run RBI single, making it 3-2 Braves. After that, CF Michael Harris II drove in Lopez with a single of his own, making it 4-2 Braves.

Fast forward to the bottom of the third inning, LF Eddie Rosario hit a two-run single, driving in C Travis d'Arnaud and DH Marcell Ozuna. It was 6-2 Braves.

The implosion of Schmidt continued when Arcia and Lopez both hit RBI singles, making it 8-2 Braves.

When the bottom of the sixth inning rolled around, relief pitcher Albert Abreu threw a wild pitch in the dirt, causing Riley to score. It was 9-2 Braves.

In the bottom of the eighth inning, Rosario hit a two-run home run, making it 11-2 Braves.

In the top of the ninth inning, SS Anthony Volpe hit an RBI triple, scoring PH for 1B DJ LeMahieu, Billy McKinney. This would be the last time not only in this game, but in this series that the Yankees would score any runs. It was a 11-3 final in game one.

The Yankees would be shut out and held to one hit in game two by RHP Bryce Elder. LeMahieu was the player with the one hit and the Yankees lost 5-0.

RHP Luis Severino found his groove in between giving up two home runs to Ozuna (three-run home run in the bottom of the first inning) and RF Ronald Acuña, Jr. (two-run home run in the bottom of the fourth inning), respectively.

Severino wasn’t as horrible as he has been for most of this season, but he wasn’t good enough to win this game. The lack of offensive by the Yankees didn’t help, either.

In game three, the Yankees would be shut out once again, but RHP Charlie Morton this time. The Yankees elected to use youngster Randy Vásquez to start/open this game.

Vásquez pitched well, making only one mistake to Rosario, who hit a two-run home run in the bottom of the second inning. That was the only time the Braves would score in this game, so the final score was 2-0 Braves.

A side not of game three was that relief pitcher Michael King ate up some innings after Vásquez went 3.1 innings. King went nearly four innings at 3.2 innings.

There have been talks of King being used as a starter due to the injuries and ineffectiveness of the starting rotation. Maybe this last game was a good test for King just in case the Yankees decide to go that route.

I don’t think that the Yankees should go through with this because of what happened to former pitcher Joba Chamberlain during his time with the Yankees.

The Yankees had Chamberlain go back and forth being used out of the bullpen and as a starter. These Joba rules messed with Chamberlain’s game and pitching ability.

He was never the same pitcher during the rest of his time with Yankees and even when he departed from the organization.

Fingers crossed that the Yankees come up with something else in lieu of using King as a starter.
