Nirvana’s “Nevermind” album cover was “not child pornography,” according to a judge dismissing a lawsuit filed by Spencer Elden, aka the naked baby.

Well it looks like this guy will have to quit playing video games in his moms basement and get his job back delivering pizza again.
I think that it’s kinda funny that the cover is supposed to be about greed and how people are conditioned to chase money……..and it turns out that this guy has been living out that narrative his whole life.

It always seemed to me that the parents provided the baby for the pictures, and must've signed something. And then the album came out in the 90s, and if there was any question about how the picture was used, it would've been handled back then, between the parents and the band. For the guy to be doing this now is just (in the words of a Nirvana song) dumb.
Almost as dumb as a company buying the rights to "The Kookaburra Song" 60 years after its release, then suing Men At Work in the 2000s because 20 years ago it borrowed a melody from the song you now own.

I watched you, MTV, when I was young
The Buggles was your very first song
You played very few songs by anyone Black
I remember feeling a little elation
When Billie Jean went in heavy rotation
But now the music's gone and won't be back
Oh-a, oh-a
Times have changed
Oh-a, oh-a
This is strange
Paramount killed the MTV star

You could always visit Phoenix; we have some creepy dolls in the basement. In downtown Phoenix, there used to be a department store called Hanny's and now it is a restaurant. When the store closed, some things were left behind, including these dolls below. Someone set them up like this, so whenever you visit the restaurant and go downstairs to see the creepy doll display. I ate at Hanny's once and the food was pretty good; the dolls were creepy looking.
