    So why not ask the administrators to change your name instead of sneaking in the stage door?

     

    Sorry i was rude in my last message. It’s just hard to stick up for yourself against people who have never been in our shoes.

     

    tbh i change my handle often for one because i hate all the ones i choose and can’t think of a good catchy one for the life of me. Haha. Don’t try new ones that seem better or more sexy or whatever. Also sometimes i change my handle when i get stalkers.This job can become really scary at times. more than clients can even fathom

    I never use it as it requires that you be logged in. I'm not willing to create an account because they require too much information. They have a habit of sharing too much for my taste. Does the escort really need to know that you just checked out their profile?

    Cataract Surgery and the use of ORA

    in Tech Talk

    Posted

    It would appear that I'm having the same problem.

     

    I read the article and noted that the copyright date was 2003. I am covered through Kaiser, and they do not offer any kind of

    laser-assited regular cataract surgery about 4 years ago. My immediate outcome was great. A year later, I did have one significant floater in each eye. There was nothing to be done, but there were no signs of retinal detachment.

     

    At the end of may, the vision in my left eye became fuzzier and as if there were a slight grey scrim over everything.

    I thought it might be what many call a "secondary cataract", where the bag that holds the lens becomes cloudy.

     

    I mentioned it in my annual check in July, and my primary care doctor said that I would have to see an Optometrist(!)

    before having a consultation with an opthalmologist, but they were not allowing any at the time due to the upswing in

    covid-19 cases. A week ago, I decided that with that spike diminishing, I would try again; called up optometry for an

    appointment, and they said just to call opthamology directly. A physician gave me a phone consult, agreed with me that

    it was probably a secondary cataract, and scheduled a procedure just to be done just yesterday.

     

    It took 20 minutes to dilate my eyes, 10 minutes for the doctor to examine both, and see if anything else was going on,

    5 minutes to walk from the examination room to a different room a floor up which had a YAG laser, and about 3 minutes

    to blast the rear wall clear. Today the vision in my left eye is every bit as good as after my eyes settled down after

    the initial cataract surgery 4 years ago.

     

    That hardly makes me an expert. I'm only offering anecdotal evidence that even traditional methods work well,

    but that in some cases complications may arise.

    How do you approach the Trans community without offending them

    I'm a top (or was one.) I have yet to find a person that does't have what I'm interested in.

     

    Nipples I've been told come on all the standard models and respond (or don't respond) the same way.

     

    It's all just skin. I like skin. I like licking, sucking, and rubbing skin.

     

    I like short, I like muscular, I like scruffy.

    I am a gay man attracted to gay men with all the right parts. Even among the gay community I definitely have a type. Now that the Trans community is mixing in I find I am getting approached often. When I have turned them down I have been accused of being racist and closed minded. My interest involves men with all the working parts. I have found Trans men rather aggressive in approaching me and they don’t take no for an answer. I wish to remain sensitive and my trans friends haven’t been helpful in how to respond. No should mean no.

    How to know when a comment is a review?

    It was brought in by Hooboy.

     

    I feel that any clear-cut definition would be impossible. The rule of No Reviews was brought in, as I recall the history, after the crackdown on Rentboy; the rule is intended to protect the site from unwelcome attention by the authorities.

     

    I believe it’s useful and allowed to say things like “I’m a total bottom and he made me very happy” or “I’m a total top and we were very compatible”. I think that details can better be conveyed in private messages.

    Client with Skin Condition

    Each person is different. Each persons triggers are different, stress is an important one The treatment for each is different. For me what works:

     

    1) Moisturize! Moisturize! Moisturize!

    2) Small dosage of Doxycycline 100mg once per day

    3) Sedium (GNC Mega Men 50 Plus) twice per day

     

    The Doxycycline is a off-book use to reduce inflammation. That in return

    reduces the plaque.

     

    I don't have the funds to try the more "Modern" cures as they tend to run

    in the thousands of dollar.

     

    @BnaC makes some good suggestions.

     

    Psoriasis is thought to be an autoimmune disease. The question becomes what is triggering the overactive immune response. In some people it's nutritional or environmental or some combination provoking the allergic response. Stress and depression may be involved. Inflammation may be an issue too. Consulting a doctor is important to make sure it isn't a symptom of something serious like diabetes or heart disease. Treatments range from topical creams and ointments to UV treatments or even immune suppressants. Once the serious stuff is ruled out by the doctor, then take the conservative approach and explore nutritional changes, stress management, inflammation management, and environmental changes. Depending on how extensive it is, other more aggressive treatments may be required.

     

    Dermatitis (aka, eczema) is typically thought of as an inflammatory condition of the skin. Like psoriasis, there's likely a genetic component and environmental/nutritional triggers for it. Gluten should be reduced or eliminated since one type of dermatitis is usually associated with Celiac Disease (gluten allergy). Again, consult with a doctor to rule out big concerns and then take a conservative approach. Patience matters, mindfulness helps, because stress management is likely important for both conditions.

     

    Talking to a good Dietitian might help for either condition. A nutritionist is okay if that's the only option, but a Dietitian is the better choice.

    Have you ever met any celebrities?

    Skipper from Gilligan's island. Red Skelton. Carol Burnett. Whoopi Goldberg both in and out of character.

     

    Plus one very special person that I miss a lot since his passing. He was a silent member of our group. I begged him for years to

    come to Palm Springs where everybody would protect his privacy. Just a reminder that "celebrities" are among us.
