A little research would have turned up this mod, which allows proper danglies for men in Sims 4 instead of those 'graffiti' versions. cmar's mods are very popular among the community. http://mysims4blog.blogspot.com/2014/09/the-si…

Honestly? I think the fact that you're covering this is fucking awesome. More of these in-depth sub-culture articles, please. Really digging the direction Kotaku is taking lately (and not just because it's exploring "taboo" ground like nude mods, which most gaming websites wouldn't give a thoughtful feature).

Its harder to mod penises into the game rather than nips and vagina for that very reason. The overall shape of the female model can support nips and vagina with just a texture swap, the male model on the other hand doesn't have the penis shape built into it.

Those peenors look so weird because they're like graffiti on a wall.
A flat texture.

Okay, seriously. What in the actual fuck, folks?

I teach English at the college level; last year, I was privileged to teach ENG 230, which at my institution is a rotating (through the faculty) course that is generously labeled "Special Topics in Literature."

I taught my course, for two semesters, as "Gaming: Literary…

I didn't assume they're gay actors, I said they're gay porn actors. They might be gay-for-pay, but it doesn't change the fact that they signed away all rights to those images when they signed their model release forms.

Um, dude, leaving aside the hypocrisy and double standards in sexual matters that you'll find among Jezzies, these dudes in the pics are gay porn models/actors/stars (whatever terminology you prefer). They signed model releases before posing and stroking for pics/videos. They already signed away all rights to the use…

Unfortunately we still have products like this and, no, they're not of the nano-age. Most of them fall under pseudo-science "miracle cures", largely pushed by "Big Placebo", everything from "candling" to ingesting insane amounts of rare fruits that are scientifically proven to cause atypical forms of Parkinson's...…

There are at least 6 U.S. products listed.

When It comes to products like these everyone always says "No one knew nothing, we all just thought radiation was wicked, don't hate on us because of all the damage we never could have known!"

At that time they were, they stoped making radium watches because radium barkes down to radon gas.

I wonder how much this stuff was actually endorsed/embraced by the medical establishment, though. Was it mainstream medicine, or more like the 40s equivalent of homeopathy and that stuff with magnets? It sounds like it was all quackery now, but I wonder if it seemed that way at the time.

..And early mobile devices, don't forget those!

My grandfather, Dr Howard A Kelly, bought radium from Mme. Curie, and at one time owned the largest supply of radium in the US. (A very small amount, worth a great deal of money). His attempts to use radium in the treatment of cancer were ultimately unsuccessful due to the terrible side effects, largely unknown at the…

True story.

Funny because that every second item is American on the list.

Missing: the "all natural" label. Radium, after all, is all natural. Powerful visual reminders like these bring it home what sparked the (often misplaced) distrust of modern science-based medicine.

Except that Doramad toothpaste wasn't produced until 1940, which was during the Second World War...

You know Radium watches were produced well into the 1970s, I know my brother had one in high school. and Radium dials were used in Russian tanks until the fall of the Soviet Union . Radium is an Alpha emitter and Alpha partacles will not penetrate the watch dials.. or even a sheet of paper.

In a couple of decades, somebody will be writing a similar article about all of the misguided nano-particle and nano-tech products currently coming to market.
