So, Hump, my annual porn short film festival kicked off this weekend, last weekend, in Seattle and Portland.

And I was down in Portland to host the hump screenings at Revolution Hall.

It was a blast.

It was so great to see so many people

coming out for funny, short, deeply humanizing porn. Some people don't like porn because they find

it dehumanizing the porn you will find at Hump. The Hump Film Fest is very deeply humanizing

porn. Porn that really butters your bread. You will know what I mean by that if you have seen Hump

or you plan to see it in the future on the tour coming up. I mentioned Hump on this day of all

One is the accordion,

the instrument. Everyone loves the accordion. And so there's a lot of accordion porn in this

year's Hump Film Festival. And accordion porn is an underrepresented porn genre. And we are

happy to shine a light on accordion porn at Hump this year. And the other prop is,

Make America Great Again hats, about which we feel terrible because so many people last weekend were coming to hump to escape the fucking election to take a break from having to think about the danger our republic is in today Tuesday election, the peril that this country is in because one of our two major political parties has been seized.

That exactly seized.

But let's seize, for lack of a better word right now, seized by a right-wing xenophobic racist, sexist, rapy bigot.

Now, that didn't happen by accident.

The Republican Party has worked for 40 years to create a base that is comprised, it seems,
