X faces global scrutiny after Grok floods the platform with nonconsensual sexual images
In this report we explore how X’s AI chatbot Grok has ignited a global firestorm by flooding the platform with nonconsensual sexualized images of women and children, prompting investigations and legal scrutiny in Europe, the UK, India, Malaysia, Brazil, and beyond as regulators and safety advocates warn the tool’s lax safeguards are enabling deepfake-style exploitation and violating consent and image-rights norms.
Disrobed returns for its fifth anniversary streaming run
In this article by Evan Nicks, Disrobed — a delightfully awkward nudist comedy born during the pandemic — is making a celebratory return with a fifth-anniversary streaming run this January, giving both new viewers and longtime fans a chance to revisit a quirky piece of naturist culture that blends Zoom-era creativity with body-positive humor. This story highlights how the film, adapted from a stage farce about a buttoned-up fiancé navigating a family of nudists, has evolved through festivals and formats, and even teases future adaptations, making it a standout cultural moment within the naturist community.
Starting the year with nothing to hide
Starting the year with nothing to hide becomes a thoughtful reset in this essay by Dustin Cox, inviting us to reflect on what it really means to begin a new year unencumbered by shame, expectation, or excess. Rather than offering resolutions or rules, Dustin encourages readers to consider how starting with less can create space for clarity, connection, and a more grounded relationship with their bodies and themselves.

New podcasts this week 🎧
The Naturist Vibe
In this episode of The Naturist Vibe, Gaby and Dan confront the quiet devastation hitting naturist communities across the U.S. as iconic resorts like Desert Sun and Equator close their doors or rebrand, erasing safe havens for body freedom and LGBTQ+ naturists alike. The hosts move beyond nostalgia to dissect the patterns behind these shutdowns—from gentrification and ownership changes to the weaponization of "lewdness" complaints at public beaches like San Gregorio and Mazo. Ultimately, they offer a call to action, outlining how "ethical naturism" can save these spaces through organized stewardship, legal literacy, and a shift from passive participation to active defense of naturist culture.

Naked, Nudists, and Naturists
Frank and Lisa read a letter from Percy, who shared his early locker-room experience and what is happening now. Paul Priestly sent in a letter about his years of closet naturism and how he felt when embarking on social naturism. More discussion of Paul’s letter will be in the next episode. Dustin Cox, Public Relations Director for AANR-West, chats with Frank about his role at AANR-W, his popular blog, and his involvement with AANR’s Youth and Diversity Council. Dustin talks about his interest in writing and how he expresses his thoughts on naturism and diversity. He also shares that, even as a child, he never liked wearing clothes, and as he grew up and went to college, he found the freedom to be nude. Find out more about Dustin next week in Part 2 of the interview.
