FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The secret of the saddle muscle is finally revealed…in a role-play baby powder rodeo. Drunk and dusty, in a deep disco beat, we see the saddle as a moral system and the muscle as will power. Cooperate with gentle pumps and dry grinds.

Only when balance is reached in a rigorous game of ring-toss can the two urges co-exist and burn bright in a blaze of humping under the writhing rider. – Shane Ruth
