LOS ANGELES — Pineapple Support has announced a free, online support group with a focus on using Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques to improve interpersonal skills.

The six-week support group “DBT Interpersonal Effectiveness” will be provided by therapist Sophia Graham and will start on Friday, August 20.

“Our efforts to manage our own emotions are frequently challenged by our interactions with other people,” said Graham. “Sometimes this leads us to behave impulsively or to explode, damaging our relationships. Other times we can fail to speak up assertively for what we need, which can lead to resentment or misunderstandings later. This course is about empowering us to handle interpersonal situations more effectively.”

Pineapple Support founder Leya Tanit said, “This course invites you to reflect on the myths that can hold you back in relationships, while teaching you how to be more assertive.”

“Sophia is a disabled, queer coach and therapist working primarily with marginalized individuals and groups,” Tanit added. “Sophia’s work can help you gain control over your life and relationships. These flexible and scientifically supported dialectical behavior therapy techniques are a way to clearer communication and more fulfilling relationships.”

The two-hour “DBT Interpersonal Effectiveness” support group begins on Friday August 20 at 10 a.m. (PDT), and will take place online each Friday at the same time until September 24.

CHICAGO — Celebrity nudity site Mr. Skin has released its ranking of the 10 “hottest nude scenes” of the year to date, while all-male companion site, Mr. Man, has unveiled its list of the year’s Top 10 nude male celebs.

Mr. Skin — “well-known for its laser-sharp attention to detail when it comes to film and TV’s sexiest moments,” a rep observed — has named Sarah Shahi as the “reigning queen of nude scenes” for the year, so far, “thanks to her many glorious stripped-down performances in the Netflix series ‘Sex/Life.'”

“Italian-American treasure Julia Fox takes the No. 2 spot for her nude debut as a cam model in indie film ‘PVT Chat’; tied at No. 3 is daring duo Katherine Waterston and Vanessa Kirby for their sapphic sex scenes in ‘The World to Come’ and at No. 4 is AnnaLynne McCord for her wild sex scene in Starz series ‘Power Book III: Raising Kanan.’ Coming in hot at No. 5 is ‘Broad City’ star Ilana Glazer, thanks to her nude debut in Hulu Original Film ‘False Positive.'”

Filling out the Top 10 for Mr. Skin are Kiko Mizuhara and Honami Satô (“Ride or Die” on Netflix); Bracken Burns (“Falling”); Andra Day (“The United States vs. Billie Holiday”); Magdalena Perlinska (“All My Friends Are Dead”); and Alexandra Daddario (HBO’s “The White Lotus”).

Meanwhile, the rep explained, “Mr. Man had some long, hard decisions to make — finally bestowing its No. 1 honor upon the impressively-endowed duo of Adam Demos and Mike Vogel of Netflix hit ‘Sex/Life.'”

“Coming in close behind at No. 2 is Sebastian Stan for his full-frontal appearance in the indie drama ‘Monday,’ while Justice Smith makes the grade at No. 3 in HBO Max high school drama ‘Genera+ion.’ At No. 4 is the dynamic pairing of Max Jenkins and Ryan O’Connell in honor of their sexy scenes in the Netflix series ‘Special.’ The fifth hottest nude scene of 2021 so far belongs to Peter Vack for his excellent solo stroking work in ‘PVT Chat.'”

The remainder of Mr. Man’s ranking is filled out by Ewan McGregor and Sullivan Jones (“Halston”); Jesse LaVercombe for his “fully-erect efforts in the horror film ‘Violation'”; Michael Provost in “Fear Street, Part Two: 1978”; Paul Forman in comedy series “Frank of Ireland”; and Tom Holland’s nude debut in “Cherry.”

POMPANO BEACH, Fla. — M.D. Science Lab, maker of the Swiss Navy brand, is marking “National Wellness Month” in August with a range of supplements as a component of self-care and the creation of healthy habits.

“It’s difficult sometimes to make time for intimacy,” said Briana Watkins, VP of sales and marketing for M.D. Science. “There’s no time like the present to check in with yourself to make sure your intimate wellness is prioritized. And our lab-created supplements are an easy way to do something good for yourself.”

A rep noted Swiss Navy “strives to support wellness year-round with a wide range of supplements to help bodies get vital substances they need to function effectively. Wellbeing is not a one-time event. Supplements can be a way to continuously provide what a body may need.”

The Mayo Clinic has reported that “some dietary supplements can help with sexual functions, such as erectile dysfunction,” the rep added.

Swiss Navy Testosterone For Men is a dietary supplement that blends herbs, minerals and amino acids that are formulated to support testosterone and enhance sexual vitality. “One unique ingredient is Tribulus terrestris, which has been used for years in traditional Chinese and Indian Ayurvedic medicine to help with stronger, more frequent erections, higher volume of ejaculate and improved muscular density,” explained the rep.

“Often it’s just a small change that can impact your health in a positive way,” said Dr. Sunny Rodgers, intimate health advisor for M.D. Science. “Dietary supplements may be helpful for personal wellness and continued healthy living.”

LONDON — Blisss.company has announced the release of the beta version of its content creation platform, now open to all creators and fans.

“Blisss is now open to all creators of every niche, gender and identity who are looking for an independent space to promote their content and brand at 360 degrees,” said a rep. “Organic traffic and potential new fans are already available for grabs by creators looking to expand their business.”

Brand Manager Sabrina Deep explained that “after two months of testing the platform side by side with a group of selected creators, we are finally ready to open its doors to everybody and to get feedback on a larger scale.”

“We have always considered Blisss an open-source project which goes beyond mere corporate decisions and interests: creators represent the core of the platform, and our mission is to listen to them and to understand their business needs,” Deep added.

Deep thinks that trying to “use multiple platforms which compete with one another is the biggest struggle for dedicated creators. The almost impossible task of promoting their content and moving fans among platforms greatly reduces creators’ potential and income while increasing their working time and hence their expenses. Blisss is like a permanent event where creators express their talent and promote every aspect of their business, including their presence on other platforms. It’s the missing link for creators to aggregate all their cross-platforms fans and push the most relevant content to them, no matter if that’s hosted on Blisss  or elsewhere.”

Brand Ambassador Corii Siren also enthused about the opportunities presented by the platform.

“I can interact with fans on Blisss, sell them specific content hosted on the platform, promote the same or different content on other platforms and automatically show them when I’m streaming live on any of the major cam networks,” said Siren. “I get organic traffic, I can promote other creators for free or for a fee, and even access and share opinions with them over potential new clients, so I know in advance if it’s worth doing business with them. It’s an unprecedented approach that makes my job easier and my business more profitable.”
