Protests - Part 77

Naked Handstander, part 2

We continue our mini-series on the Naked Handstander, Jonathan Scholes from Australia.  He has been doing naked handstands all over the world as a form of protest.  Here he is in Hong Kong.

What is he protesting?  Planned obsolescence – products that are deliberately designed to have a short lifespan so consumers have to buy or upgrade them over and over again.  He hopes that his naked handstands will help draw attention to this issue.

Above, he does a naked handstand next to the Liberty Bridge in Budapest, Hungary.

On frozen lake Tjornin, Reykjavik, Iceland on New Years Day.  That must have been cold!

On the Westfjords peninsula in Iceland in 2012.

On the black sand beach in Vik, on another visit to Iceland in 2016.

And here's another photo on the beach in Vik, Iceland.

We end today with a naked handstand in front of the Coliseum in Rome, Italy.

Next time: more naked handstands around the world.

Ads - Part 75

Privatbank, Ukraine

This is a commercial for Приватбанк (Privatbank), a Ukrainian bank, from about 2010.  The female bank employee says "In order to receive a money transfer, you will need to show some identification."  He says "I'll be back."

Unfortunately, we would never see a commercial like this in the U.S. because we're so prudish.

Bodybuilders - Part 29

Barry Munger

Barry Munger is a South African bodybuilder.  In 2024 he received his IFBB Pro qualification in Johannesburg, above.  I must say that IMHO, the combination of dark spray tan and white face is not a good look.

But there's no doubt that he has muscles.  Here he is lifting weights to keep in shape, and looking much better without the spray tan.

Barry Munger has posed for porn photos and videos under the name Bazzz.  The photo above was captioned "Wanna see what's the front?"

And indeed he shows us what's in front.

Bazzz (Munger) has not made any gay sex videos, but he has made some solo videos.  This is the happy ending from one of them.

Hiking - Part 76

 Naked Hike in the Eifel, Germany

This guy calls himself naked_hiker on Twitter.  Each year, he organizes a naked hiking weekend in the Eifel, a low mountain range in the western part of Germany.

The naked hiking weekend in 2025 was at the beginning of September.  42 people signed up for the hike (above).  Almost all were men.  I count 4 women in the photo.

Above, naked_hiker addresses the group before the hike.

Posing with one of the hikers.

Posing with another hiker, Natfree Pascal, who organizes the yearly Naked European Walking Tour (NEWT), which we have seen in previous posts.

Hiking near Kesseling, Germany.

By Monday of the naked hiking weekend, only this small group is left.  For some reason the women aren't naked, though all the men are.

Naked_hiker also posts some things that are a bit more x-rated.  As you can see, he's into piercings.  And we can see what else he's into.

Events - Part 77

 University of Chicago Polar Bear Run 2009

Since 1983, the University of Chicago has celebrated a week-long festival in January called Kuviasungnerk or just Kuvia.  Kuviasungnerk is an Inuit (Eskimo) word that means "the pursuit of happiness." The festival is an attempt to chase away winter blues.

Today's photos are from Kuvia in 2009.

Each year, the festival ends with the Polar Bear Run, streaking across the university's Main Quadrangle from the steps of Harper Memorial Library (above) through Hull Gate on the other side.

The Kuvia bear mascot also participates.

Roughly half the runners go fully naked except for shoes and socks.

And a few extreme runners even go barefoot.

Another barefoot runner.

Here's that last barefoot runner after the race is over, talking to a girl painted like a Piet Mondrian painting.

Another runner after the race.

And another giving us a rear view.  Hey, guys (and gals), it's January in Chicago!  Time to get your asses back indoors!

Here's to kuviasungnerk (the pursuit of happiness)!

Daylight Savings Time

Daylight Savings Time Ends

Daylight Savings Time ends today, so remember to move your cocks back.  Or maybe move them back and forth.

But Hawaii, where I live, doesn't observe Daylight Savings Time.  So my cock will stay where it is.
