Young Wallender started streaming recently.

If you have BritBox Little Boy Blue is a good watch.

A good friend had been seeing an escort, working guy from Rounds, for a while and was bored with him but knew he was a marginal, street kid and needed the money so he convinced me to start seeing him. I'd been celibate since the beginning of the Aids crisis and was happy to safely see someone. Was working 24/7 having just started a new company and had no time for bars, etc. Worked out well.

Have seen a number 1) The Who doing all of Tommy at Fillmore East 2) The Pretenders at Radio City 3) Sarah Vaughn, Betty Carter with special guest Billy Eckstine at Carnegie Hall and also Patti Labelle. But, of course, being gay the best concert was The Richie Family at the Ice Palace on Fire Island.

Bad news, as if we needed any more...Israel reports a doctor who had Covid and recovered has been reinfected.

Man who refused to wear a mask dies on Covid-19. https://www.cleveland19.com/2020/07/10/year-old-port-clinton-war-vet-dies-covid-complications-fourth-july/

I'd been in therapy for years but it was the former escort MIck, now retired, that got me to open up and talk about abuse, including sexual, that happened in childhood. He gave me my life and I am so much happier and better off for having met him. He's the first person I ever trusted - trusted to the point that when I bought a new apartment I called him for decorating advice. Truly, a kind and quality human being.

I had the virus Greg and my doctor can't tell me if I'll have any long time complications from heart or liver problems. My doctor can't tell me if my antibodies will wear off in a couple of months and whether I could be re-infected in the fall. Who's your doctor that's giving you such great news?

Please listen to the end - it's hysterical.

Line Of Duty on BritBox is a very good series. 8.8 rating on IMDB. I'm also watching London Kills and Vera.

Gracepoint on Prime is an American recreation of Broadchurch starring David Tennant as well. Nowhere near as good.

I really enjoyed Merli on Netflix even though they only did one season and the French crime drama Spiral streams on Prime.

He has 3 things in production now. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000281/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_8

Reminds me off the saying "In the information age, ignorance is a choice". If you want to know what any celebrity is up to these days just go to IMDB and type in their name.

Drops on Netflix today. Story of a gay bookstore. https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/circus_of_books 100% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Saw it in IMAX which proved to be a big plus. (spoiler)_ If anyone knows who milked a cow and left a full pail of milk abandoned in the barn in the middle of the war is let me know. Thank God they did so the baby could be fed a couple of scenes later - manipulation like this drives me up the wall.

Fauda is a pretty good show on Netflix and they just dropped their third season.

The big new thing on Netflix is the documentary Tiger King. https://www.rottentomatoes.com/tv/tiger_king/s01

Not great but The Stranger and The Valhalla Murders on Netflix kept my attention. Big fan of cop procedurals so City Homicide and Silent Witness on Amazon Prime are good if that kind of show suits your fancy.
