Everyone and their mother is sending me a link to this flickr set, via Boing Boing, of something called "cephalerotica". I just don't know…there are all these clumsy mammals inserted into the art that distract from the erotic part.

The anti-vaxxers are excited. A recent paper, Measles-mumps-rubella vaccination timing and autism among young african american boys: a reanalysis of CDC data, claims that there is evidence that vaccinations cause autism. Only one problem: it's a crappy paper.
Orac has covered it to an Oracian level…
Roger Ebert has a thoughtful post on the problem of not-safe-for-work images. It's a real problem, and it's a curious example of self-imposed censorship built on an artificial fear. I don't care who you are, you've all seen pornography, you've all heard profanity, yet somehow, if even a tasteful…
She was a church lady. I could see it a mile away. Her hair cut, her clothing, her way of standing, and as I got closer, her way of speaking and, eventually, the things she said. I will call her Joan.
It is not that surprising to find a church lady like Joan at Har Mar Shopping Mall. Har Mar…

WOW!! What a beautiful Octo-Pussy on the one girl,I wonder what function the tentacles perform?
Is porn using seafood called "prawn?" ;)
Im very disappointed that NBWAW even wants to report this to the flickr overlords.
Cant see anything wrong with it at all,NSFW,meh....
I agree with PZed, all the mammals are quite unnecessary for enjoyment of the cephalerotica.
I'll be honest, my attention is mostly on the mammals.
A few of those mammals look...OK...to me. Some fine octopuses too.
@clinteas
We might not see anything wrong with it, but an employer might. A 'NSFW' tag is a courtesy, and I'm surprised that PZ didn't add one to this post.
There are cephalopods in those pictures?
Goes back and takes yet another look ...
Oh, yeah, I guess there are.
Reminds me of an old sea song
Once I saw an octopus
out in the deep blue sea
I called out , "Miss. Octopus,
Won't you play with me?"
Then out came her tentacles,
very long and straight
Oh my goodness,
eight ways to masturbate!
I saw that on Boing Boing last night and said to myself, "Quick! PZ must be informed!" And then I wised up and said (again to myself; no one else is here), "Wait a minute, everyone and his aunt will be sending this to his attention." I never for a moment suspected it would be mothers instead. (My mom would never send you naughty pictures like that.)
Mea culpa, I could not resist.
Definitely NSFW, but I believe that is pretty well inferred in the intro.
Bets on how long these are still up on Flickr?
Enjoy.
I'll never be able to look at a squid in the same way again...or eat one... ;-)
I think a more accurate description would be necrocephalerotica.
Draping dead mollusks over female mammals improves the appearance of neither
I saw it at Boing Boing too... but knew you would get plenty of notice from the other godless immoral atheists.
would those pictures be classified as Vagina Tentata?
Oh, please yourselves.
Anyway, I guess it takes all sorts. Anyone remember Alan Moore's wonderful creation the little pervert space alien called Zirk ?
Zirk had a real fetish for tentatcled things that thrashed!
Beats the title of my favourite music album,"Red Skies over Paradise"
i would have to agree.
@clinteas #3: Well, it's not like I have a problem with nudity. The owner of the photostream just needs to reclassify them so they don't appear under the default "family-friendly" filter. It's not like he'll have to take them down. (I'm assuming he holds the copyright to those images when I say that.)
I post some far more explicit stuff on my stream, but I abide by Flickr's TOS when I do it. If he doesn't like the rules, there are other places to host images.
Poor dead octopi. :-(
If you stare at the pictures long enough....you might notice some cephalopods in the pictures too! It might be too hard to get your mind off of the girls to notice though.
NBWAW,
fair enough,that would seem easy to do.
I always took you for a Deviant Art person anyway..:-)
Yeah, I think I use Flickr just because I already have an account due to using Yahoo Mail.
Grammar fail, Nakie Buns. -_-
"A 'NSFW' tag is a courtesy, and I'm surprised that PZ didn't add one to this post."
Yeah, because simply referring to a link to flickr photos as being a form or erotica wasn't enough warning.
Hmph. As I expected: Too much rape porn, not enough naked male mammals.
Very lovely, though I couldn't help imagining the possible reactions of some of the poor models when informed about the nature of the shot:
"Ok, here, put this on." "What the hell is that??!!" "Look, it's artistic, okay? It probably doesn't bite, I don't think those are teeth or anything. We'll snap it real quick."
I bet anything that those images had something to do with Japan in some way...
sex and food...
always a good match
Oy. Poor dead octopuses indeed. Conceptually interesting, but bestiality is questionable enough - necrophiliac bestiality even more so.
IMHO, tentacle porn should stay safely in the realms of hentai.
Now it's only a matter of time before everyone starts sending their Japanese tentacle rape anime to PZ...
PZ,
Which pic are you using for your screensaver??
I infer that you should have said "implied" there.
Oh, PZ, we didn't know you were into hentai. Whatever does the old trophy wife think, hmmm?
Cephaloporn has a long and honorable history, and one of the masters of Japanese art was producing much hotter stuff many, many years ago. For example (this may be NSFW (where W==work or wowsers)):
The Dream of the Fisherman's Wife
Infer or imply? You're probably smarter than me on the exact usage, but since I used it the way I did, it is totally acceptable.
When I do it, it's not an abuse of the language.....and yes I just finished watching Frost/Nixon.
Enjoy.
The whole account is gone, anyway.
It is perhaps arguable that that phrase could be construed something like "...it is pretty well [to be] inferred [from the material contained] in the intro." As long as TF receives the generous benefit of the doubt.
"brookelynn23 is no longer active on Flickr"
That didn't take long....
chat thank`s
To all who have said it is down, I just accessed it via PZed's link above.
Interesting.
Ciao
@Tim Fuller (#35):
"Infer or imply?"
Imply... or implode?
The Flickr set has been deleted, but apparently all of the photos were taken from this 39 page thread.
NSFW, of course.
Cant see anything wrong with it at all,NSFW,meh...
There's a difference between prudery and prudence.
Sure, we may not be perturbed by these pictures, but maybe our human resource departments would be. A tag is all we desire.
One of the images on "The Award-winning Cephalopoda Erotica Thread" seems to be an image by artist of nature Glen Loates of a sperm whale hunting squid.
Chances are this has already been linked to in some other comment, but here's a great Japanese ad for, I'm guessing, some sort of topical ointment for octopuses.
Awww, it's telling me the page is private! Anyone help?
There is brief cephalerotic imagery in this commercial.
I can't view the flickr set, first it forced me to create an identity, now it says that photo set is "private". I wish people would avoid user-hostile photo sites.
Octopus up the butt. Ow ow ow ow ow.

Need I say more?
No way to see them without signing up for a Yahoo account?
I'll pass, then.
The Flickr set's been pulled, the author chimed in on BoingBoing and pointed to a place the naughtiness continues:
