Statistically, there WILL be cases, and the environment is such that widespread transmission is likely. But the cruise skews to an age demographic where even unvaccinated the fatality/complication rate is low, and they are all vaccinated. It's unlikely there will be any serious cases among the passengers. ODs are more likely. I have two friends I know of who are on this cruise. I think one of them is gearing up to launch an OnlyFans...

The spas in Vegas don't require a swimsuit so most people go naked in the hot tub. But on random days you get a group of dudebros in boardshorts which makes it awkward when you're the only one naked.

I think the fact everyone has a camera on them these days from the age of junior high has a lot to do with it. But it started before then. It began around the AIDS crisis but also that was the same time that the panic about child sex abuse began too, and those two things combined with America's general Puritan streak resulted in kids being warned about the dangers all around them etc. I was in HS in the late 80s and by then in my school the showers were barely used - in 4 years I saw 4 boys who used the shower...once each. I think part of it was budgets were being cut and there were no locker attendants or the like.

I just don't get her appeal. Not that she's not vocally talented, just that most of what I hear of her on the radio sounds like the same damn song. And not a particularly good one.

I think if pools were much of a source of transmission they'd have figured that out definitively by now and,say, had some water park superspreader events. My impression was they felt the chlorine takes care of it. I've used pools and have not had coronavirus. Steam rooms, though, are not good. But since I've been vaccinated I've used them too without incident.

Am I the only one who wonders if Rue McClanahan fudged her age? She did not look 10+ years younger than her costars....

There's a company called Let's Get Moving KC that's in Kansas City and it on TikTok. The owners are rugby players, they have a calendar, and they like to post banter on their social media. A few of them have OnlyFans but my understanding is they don't really show the goods there.

Is this including any sort of interaction/feedback/checkins?

There are quite a few "regular guys" I see at the gym who look as good or better than any celebrity out there. Statistically speaking, the million bucks is far and away the better option unless you are fabulously wealthy. And the fabulously wealthy tend to be cheapskates who would take the million in a heartbeat.

I've sometimes thought what I should have done when I was younger was find a woman who either was a lesbian or had little-to-no-interest in sex for a companionate marriage. I think having a partner can/does make some people 'up their game" generally. I think I would have progressed farther in my career, maintained myself physically better, just generally had my shit more together were I sharing my life with someone. At this stage of my life that horse is out of the barn but I do have a few unmarried female friends who I joke with about us Golden Girlsing it up in our retirement years.

Worse mostly for physical reasons. Back and nerve impingement hasn't rendered me impotent, but it has definitely curtailed my capacity significantly. And that has led to a reticence to engage in the first place.

eh it's more in the cities that gay people flee too, but If you're counting Kinsey 5s and 6s, I'd say it's more like 3-5% of the general population, BUT I believe there are several times more bisexuals than homosexuals, but the bisexuals often wind up with opposite-sex life partners because of numbers and it's easier to have kids. As a matter of survival gay people tend to gather in areas where we are overrepresented.

It was absolutely criminal that he got into that bathtub fully clothed while Amy Adams was naked. They can show ass in PG-13 movies, dammit!

I strongly suspect this is just a correlation and not any actual preventive mechanism. Alzheimer's shows subtle signs decades before full onset of symptoms. I would wager one of those signs is less general vigor and awareness of/interest in the availability of Viagra in the first place.

I've encountered a number of very hung total bottoms over the years. I wondered if maybe larger cock correlates with a larger and/or more sensitive prostate.

Where did you see him?

I am turned off by such escorts, but is it fundamentally all that different from a nightclub that doesn't let you in without a certain look? And realistically, the kind of escort who does that likely isn't going to be a good time in the first place, so they're saving you money.

eh, not always, some guys' faces end up looking like they have lipodystophy. My friend looked ten years older after his contest.

He's fitness model lean. Body building lean often ends up ruining guys' looks when the fat in their face goes away and then the skin just looks terrible. I have a friend who was gorgeous and well-proportioned who decided to do a bodybuilding contest to cross it off his bucket list, and he looked ten years older after he did it.

Eh that's not exactly fat. That's more like "could lose ten pounds". His chest/shoulders are still considerably wider than his hips/ass and he still has muscle. The reality is that when bodyfat is in the single digits often the person feels like marble to the touch and it's less fun to have sex with them.

This bullshit was going on before the pandemic Vegas hotel spas are a shadow of what they were in the early 2000s. You used to be able to practically eat a meal with what was available to you, and then they started taking things away one by one until now you get water and that's it. Some still have coffee. The bean counters insisting that every single area stand on its own from a dollars and cents perspective are ruining the travel experience and the benefit of multiple options. I only expect it to get worse now that the casino companies are selling the buildings and leasing them back.

The late Scott Anthony once said to me, "If I had a pair of tits, I'd rule the fucking world!"

Cancer treatment is rough and takes a lot out of you, and a 70 year old has reached the point where he sees some of his contemporaries living very feeble existences. I could certainly see his making the decision not to treat, especially given there's a nonzero chance something else takes him out before the cancer does at his age.

It's just the name of the company, it's like Google is owned by Alphabet. The app is still going to be called Facebook.

What's ridiculous is that the crackdown on opiate prescriptions did not lead to a decrease in deaths. So maybe they should stop torturing nursing home patients by taking them off their fentanyl patches just to satisfy a flawed metric.
