Are old Playboys actually /lit/?
>>23974129No. Pornography is degenerate. Hugh Heffner is burning in hell
For me it's the Christmas blonde triplets December 1998
>>23974134It is but if you say you don’t beat off you’re a liar
>>23974134How much seething resentment must be in a person for them to actually imagine someone else burning in hell?
>>23974129Yes, they literally had short fiction in them. I have an issue set aside to read with their Nabokov interview. >>23974134But softcore erotica is patrician. Anyway I've been starting to collect Playboys. Model on the left is Hemingway's granddaughter.
>>23974129Shel Silverstein wrote for them, yeah.
>>23974175The actress? Nobody cares about that dumb cunt. I dont even know her name.Being related to someone famous is a nothing burger.
>>23974129I unironically bought two old Playboys because they had interviews in them I needed to cite for a thesis.
>>23974169I'm pretty sure that is the whole reason for the concept of hell existing
>>23974129Kinda, since back issues are where you'll find where the whole modern Illuminati larp came from
>>23974223All along, hell was having to be religious during life. Deep.
>>23974129they weren't good stories. not literary fiction, just stuff for men. mildly amusing or erotic.
>>23974129photos are assthetic af any guide books on how to take assthetic pics like this
>>23974129Their interviews with authors are typically surprisingly decent. Certainly worth it if you need to cite a line or two
>>23974222Imagine citing playboy in your thesis lol
>>23974175She apparently died of suicide and her (half?) sister is still alive who had a starring role in a movie about a lesbian track star. I wonder how many dudes beat off to that movie.
>>23974175>Anyway I've been starting to collect Playboys.I was considering the same but it's a surprisingly expensive hobby.
>>23974129What's the best source for high quality scans of vintage Playboy's?
>>23974129Souce on that woman?
>>23974381Pretty sure she's been on Playboy.
>>23974381https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katariina_Souri
>>23974444thanks
>>23974175>Anyway I've been starting to collect Playboys.Doesn't feel weird to touch paper with cum?
>>23974363Not terribly. Most of mine I got from a pawn shop that I always go to and he has a Playboy box. I've made big purchases there before (like a 1928 Underwood portable typewriter) and usually toss in a random Playboy or two for a few extra bucks, and he's thrown an extra one on for free before. I have gone to ebay for specific issues I remember from growing up, and they were like around twenty bucks or so, not bad but I can see how that would add up. I mainly only want ones with nostalgia attached to them or others that have an interview or a pictorial that is just "must-have." I might sell the ones I don't want and make some scratch. I even found a personalized autograph in one. I should go back to that pawn shop.
>>23974345So? They're known for having good interviews with actors, authors, and politicians.
>>23974444checked she aged quite well
>>23974637Also, the best cartoonist ever. It's quite a deal
>>23974651Sure is.
>>23974129Trump was on a Playboy cover. Guess the year and the month.
>>23974884If it wasn’t Ivanka I don’t care.

They were the quintessential middle-brow reading.
>>23975154
>>23974175>Yes, they literally had short fiction in them.And some longer stories in serialized form. For instance, Fahrenheit 451 (published in book form the previous autumn) was serialized over the course of March, April, and May of 1954 when the magazine was still in its infancy (having debuted in December 1953).>>23974356>her (half?) sister is still aliveFull sister, and there are two of them, actually. Margaux (born "Margot") was the middle sister (born 1954, died 1996). The one you're referring to is Mariel (born 1961). There is also the oldest sister Joan a.k.a. "Muffet" (born 1950), who was a writer and actress when she was younger, but withdrew from public view in the early '80s.>who had a starring role in a movie about a lesbian track star.Technically the character was bi, but the story does center around a lesbian relationship specifically. That movie was Personal Best (1982). She also played Dorothy Stratten (the 1980 Playmate of the Year who was murdered by her estranged husband just as her acting career was taking off) in the biopic Star 80 (1983).Mariel was in Playboy a couple of times herself, in conjunction with both Personal Best and Star 80. She got breast implants in the interim, which she later had removed after they ruptured. Her daughter Dree was the first Playmate of the Month after the shift to non-nude pictorials in 2016.Margaux was more successful as a fashion model than as an actress. The peak of her fame was in the '70s, but her appearance in Playboy wasn't until 1990, when she was trying to revive her failing career. It didn't help, and in her final years she was mostly starring in direct-to-video borderline soft-porn flicks. Before she died, she accused her father of having sexually abused her as a child, a claim which Mariel eventually corroborated after Jack's death. Mariel now claims that he molested both of her older sisters, though not her.
>>23975183He rapes his sister, Phoebe.
>>23975183This chart says way more about its maker than it does high-brow, low-brow, or anything else, really.
>>23975229Can you describe in your best prose the person who made that chart?
>>23975229>He treats this chart VERY seriouslyAnon, I...
>>23974363i only ever see them for like 5 bucks at antique stores
>>23974134I actually think about this oftenDo people who invented evil and degenerate thing actually goes to hell or its the one who put himself in evil and degenerate thing that goes to hell.Think about it. Playboy wouldn't exist if there are no consoomer, inside a super puritan soceity, it will go out of business in a quick manner. The one who keep things like playboy alive is none other than the consoomer themselves
>>23975268>inside a super puritan soceity, it will go out of business in a quick manner.The staunchest puritans tend to be hypocrites themselves, which eventually provokes a liberal reaction against said hypocrisy, which devolves into rampant libertinism, which leads to a puritanical reaction, which is eventually exposed as rife with hypocrisy.... It's an endless cycle.
>>23974129they had really interesting stuff in them, not just tits&ass
>>23975343>look up some random playboy number>Daniel Mannix, Len Deighton and J G BallardI wish something like this existed today
>>23975351It's more relevant to /ck/ than to /lit/, but those Thomas Mario food and drink columns are pure gold.
>>23975343>they had really interesting stuff in them, not just tits&assSo if I put cunt in the centre of the Journal of Militant Geography will lesbians and men read about burning telephone booths in Lyon?
>>23975410yes
>>23975420I am getting a Journal Board together…
>>23975183I like this, it's like the center page in a MAD magazine
>>23975420For once I'll say XKCD was right a one panel, but I am still honor-bound to post this.
>>23975351I already write softcore-ish erotica and it has been my pipe dream to publish my own print publication, with photos of hot naked girls (I have a nice camera) and similar writing to what I already published, fiction, poetry maybe, essays. I wouldn't want it as broad as Playboy's topics, but still.
>>23975229t. penis snail owner
>>23975268It would be both presuming that neither repent.
>>23974175>Model on the left is Hemingway's granddaughter.But /lit/ told me she was a tranny???
>>23974310just watch youtube videos on it
>>23974129>Are old Playboys actually /lit/?I know you know this and just wanted to make a thread about playboy but yes, the second layer of the 'I read Playboy for the articles' joke is that generally speaking Playboy had good articles.
>>23974169i mean heffners a great candidate, this guy had in-house abortionists
>>23975183>battery powered high cap instant cooker sounds based>bdsmwhats wrong with that>one long fingernailwhats up with that

>>23974637They got Jimmy Carter to do an interview in 1976, during his Presidential campaign, in which he confessed to lusting after women who were not his wife>Political disaster ensued. Rosalynn Carter was suddenly being asked whether she trusted her husband. The fallout, in Carter’s words, “nearly cost me the election.”https://apnews.com/article/jimmy-carter-playboy-lust-adultery-45523cf7e2eb38a784fc999974ba9ac7
>>23977464really? is that what it's for?I thought it's for fashion
>>23975183>Esotericism is le smartSomeone from /x/ that never reads made it. Why are you posting it on /lit/, anon?
>>23977836wtf, can't a guy just be horny? If a man ISN'T lusting over multiple women then something is off with him.
>>23978188Why would they need to? God narrates the truth to them without a mediator
>>23978166yesif it's the right thumb, it could be for playing acoustic guitar
>>23978491Apparently, on the set of Blues Brothers, John Belushi told Carrie Fisher to go easy on the cocaine. When John Belushi tells you to dial it back, you know you have a problem.
>>23978459>Books are mediators between God and meSee, this is why I hate /x/enos.Who said that God talks to you?
>>23974129They really are. I read 'The essential Mcluhan' which included an interview playboy had with him. It's not tippidy top intellectualese, but it's bloody close.Genuinely impressed. This is the cool sort of stuff that the internet and hyperspecialism has killed. Why tittilate yourself to softcore? Why read moderately intelligent discussion? Shouldn't we just go whole hog? It's pleasing in an old timey relaxing sense.
Let's not let this thread die.
>>23975696I love black hat
>>23974134based>>23975268>Do people who invented evil and degenerate thing actually goes to hell or its the one who put himself in evil and degenerate thingboth unless they repent, isn't it it theology 101?
>>23974169yeah that person is probably a bad person
>>23974129can i still submit my stories to playboy? i cant find the submission on their website unless they nudie pics of me
>>23981097playboy is 99% just a brand now.
>>23974373i've got a bunch of old playboysi was planning to throw them out or give them away or somethingmaybe i'll sacrifice one or two for scanning (although i'm sure there must be a torrent of tons of them somewhere)where's a good place to anonymously host a pdf?
>>23974169>imaginelol
>>23981097Nigga there's no magazine anymore, it's just online pics and videos like Femjoy, MET-Art, etc.
>>23981148Nigga sell them on eBay and make some scratch.
>>23974129Believe it or not, I used to go to Playboy to find who was being interviewed and who were writing the articles; usually the top people in their respective fields. The rest of the magazine was secondary.
>>23981148Libgen?
>>23974129>>23974134In the early days they literally had two or three pages of nudity and the rest of it was filled with articles. Go search for the archives.
