Immortalized, Episode 1: Size Matters by Will Judy on Blue Blood

Immortalized, Episode 1: Size Matters

It’s Valentine’s Day, which is an odd choice to debut a show about competitive taxidermy, but it works for me. My wife is allergic to V-day, which she considers to be the antithesis of all things romantic, so I get the stink-eye for bringing home flowers and artisan chocolates….( Read more )

The Following – Mad Love by Raygun Robyn on Blue Blood

The Following - Mad Love

On this week’s episode of “Give Robyn Nightmares”, Claire gets a disturbing video of her kid, still in the Cult’s care. They’re trying to influence the kid onto a darker path and generally freaking out Claire, which is certainly working. That kid seems smarter than…( Read more )

Archer Season 4, Episode 4: Next On: Midnight Ron by Will Judy on Blue Blood

Archer Season 4, Episode 4: Next On: Midnight Ron

My Archer-loathing wife and I went to a dinner on Friday last week, and got seated next to a nice couple who had been living in Uruguay. After a long series of informative stories about how spectacular the steaks are in Uruguay and what shit they are in the states, they mentioned that their old…( Read more )

Batty Kickstarter for Vanity Vamp by Amelia G on Blue Blood

Batty Kickstarter for Vanity Vamp

You all are probably familiar with Batty from her appearances in the Blue Blood VIP and her gothic clothing line Azrael’s Accomplice. Forrest Black and I have collaborated with Batty on shoots for Marquis, Devolution, Tattoo Savage, and more. Sometimes she has been in front of our cameras…( Read more )

The Following – The Poet’s Fire by Raygun Robyn on Blue Blood

The Following - The Poet's Fire

So last week’s immolation victim is some kind of book critic? That’s not cool man. Ain’t nobody got time for that shit. Is some tv writer gonna come after me now? Hopefully I’m not on the radar of any “True Blood” writers.

As each character’s chapters…( Read more )

Scarlet Starr with Rayguns (SFW PIC)

I’m feeling really worn out, but at least I can tell I’ve gotten a ridiculous amount of things done. This series Forrest Black and I shot of Scarlet Starr just posted to EroticFandom and the Blue Blood VIP. Raygun accessories by the most excellent Kevin Flint.

The Following – Chapter Two by Raygun Robyn on Blue Blood

The Following - Chapter Two

Now that our least favorite serial killer, Joe, has abducted his own son, it’s up to the ex-wife to try and get some info out of him. But is this all just a clever rouse to get under her skin? For Joe, he wants questions answered, the questions in The Letter that he sent Claire before it…( Read more )

Archer Season 4, Episode 3: Legs by Will Judy on Blue Blood

Archer Season 4, Episode 3: Legs

This week’s merry episode of Archer finds us at home with Ray, in his spacious and non-ADA compliant mid-century mod bachelor pad. Where he is having a dreadful time dealing with that pesky paraplegia. Which fortunately doesn't seem to be bothering any of his co-workers,…( Read more )

Archer Season 4, Episode 2: The Wind Cries Mary by Will Judy on Blue Blood

Archer Season 4, Episode 2: The Wind Cries Mary

My Archer-loathing wife stayed on the couch for this episode just to judge me silently. Best of all: She’s from Vermont.
Confirming my theory that this show is a psychosexual hell-baby of Get Smart and The Office, we start with a poorly run staff meeting. I’m on Mallory’s side…( Read more )

Live Tweeting from Space – Performance Art with Astronauts by Amelia G on Blue Blood

Live Tweeting from Space - Performance Art with Astronauts

When I was a little girl and occasionally allowed to watch television, Star Trek was in re-runs, but it hadn’t been that long since man first walked on the moon. I watched James T. Kirk, Spock, Sulu, Scott, Dr. McCoy, and Lieutenant Uhura go to space. They got to meet lots of interesting…( Read more )

Front Line Assembly – AirMech by Zander on Blue Blood

Front Line Assembly – AirMech

Metropolis recording artist Front Line Assembly’s newest release is AirMech. What can you expect from one of the pioneers of EBM and industrial music? It seems inevitable that every new album will be held under the microscope, for better or worse. AirMech, however, marks a shift from…( Read more )

The Following – Pilot by Raygun Robyn on Blue Blood

The Following - Pilot

Kevin Bacon finally returns to tv in a leading series roll, making “Guiding Light” fans everywhere happy. From all the commercials and previews, it was hard to guess exactly what this show The Following is about. We definitely got a feel that it was about an escaped serial killer…

Archer Season 4, Episode 1: Fugue & Riffs by Will Judy on Blue Blood

Archer Season 4, Episode 1: Fugue & Riffs

Archer is a point of contention in my otherwise harmonious household. Wife hates it. Compares it to Family Guy, which in my house is like Godwin’s Law. Her point is that it’s a one-joke shambles full of dumb sexist tropes and loathsome characters. Which is weird, because she likes… . . . ( Read more )

Blue Blood is 20 Years Old, Thank You

Here is a note I am in the process of (I think) emailing to current and former members of various Blue Blood membership sites. I’ve been struggling with some Murphy’s Law technology today, so I thought I would share this blogtastically as well. I’m sure I will be riffing on some of these themes a lot this year. Stuff that makes me think.

Blue Blood is in its 20th year now. Back in 1992, when I started publishing the Blue Blood print magazine from the basement of a punk rock group house in Rockville, Maryland, I intended to create something activist, something which would create subculture cross-pollination and forever alter the beauty standards. I recently got a note for a school reunion, requesting that I supply what I’ve been up to, and my first thought was that I wanted to share that with people who get it. Thank you for your patronage of Blue Blood sites. I’m going to try to think of some amazing celebrations for this and I’ll definitely try to keep y’all updated on  parties, event appearances, and gallery shows and whatever else we have the resources to put together.

You are welcome to follow Blue Blood on Twitter at http://twitter.com/BlueBlood or me at http://twitter.com/AmeliaG for the up-to-the-minute stuff.

Now that you’ve treated everyone else this season, I’d love it if you would treat yourself to some Blue Blood VIP: http://www.blueblood.com/ You can see sample images of some of our recent updates at http://www.blueblood.com/news/tags/blue-blood-vip/ featuring new additions like cosplayer Scarlet Starr, leggy art schooler Annika Amour, literal firebreather Franccesca de Struct, and mohawed tattoo collector Tara Toxic. Since my last note to you all, we have also featured shoots of many long-time favorites, including Nixon Sixx, Razor Candi, Scar 13, Voltaire, Nina Sin, Zoe Matthews, and more more more.

Also, if you are interested in the California Deathrock book and/or T-shirt Forrest Black and I created, there is ordering info on the bottom of the page with this exclusive interview with Dinah Cancer of 45 Grave: http://www.blueblood.net/2012/12/dinah-cancer-interview-45-grave/ BlueBlood.net and the forums are still open to all and update every day with news ranging from the newest controversial goth-industrial music video to deliciously excessively intellectual pop culture deconstructions of recent television shows to where to buy zombie apocalypse to shotgun rounds and everything else you crave at http://www.blueblood.net/
