  1. Update: after an extra night due to cancelled flights, I’m home. Marriott Courtyard on Yonge St was quite sufficient and better than I expected. I’m glad I chose this area over the financial district because of its relative liveliness and 24 hour vibe. I also felt completely safe (no surprise) Church St just wasn’t our scene but people watching such a diverse and eclectic crowd was enjoyable. We did however consider attending a jock strap event at one of the bars…but couldn’t find a sporting goods store Hanlan’s Point Beach - not what I expected (mostly clothed) but that didn’t stop us from eliminating tan lines in two visits there. We opted for the water taxis to avoid crowds (C$25 each round trip) We stayed out of the water due to e-coli warnings which were a complete un-Canadian surprise to us. Museums: Bad planning in that I forgot that museums close on Monday and I didn’t get my art lovers fix. Maybe next time. Niagara Falls was spectacular. I rented a Polestar for the weekend and the drive to the falls (the train schedule seemed inconvenient for our plans to sleep in). I was quite surprised to see that Canadian EV infrastructure sucked as bad as the US’ and traffic was bad too. General Observations: drivers in Toronto were - surprisingly - as rude in bad traffic as anywhere in the states. Uber/Lyft drivers were lunatics. In our many walking tours of the areas between the hotel and the lake, I was shocked at the lack of decent dining options; everything seemed very cheap and low quality with limited gluten/dairy free options. I love the Canadian currency but not its lack of denominations less than C$5. Overall: loved the city along with its open mindedness, diversity, and vibe and would go again with more planning to experience completely
  2. Wait? Wouldn’t anything like this numb too and bottom too?
  3. I was diagnosed after a sleep study. i couldn’t tolerate the mask. i lost 30lbs and no more problem. Male biomechanics is a big contributor and a fatty gut is a big culprit
  4. Actually, the CDC estimates are less than 50%. I’ve had it all my life and I’m excessively conscious of not passing it on. I’ve never passed it on to my kids or anyone I’ve been in relationship with.
  5. Here’s the plan as it’s coming together. friday - late arrival saturday - Hanlan’s Point Beach. Evening we will find someplace fun to hang out and explore sunday - drive to Niagara Falls, probably eat lunch there - maybe Skylon Tower? Is that worth it? return to Toronto and find something fun to do Monday is an evening departure, so it will be a day of exploration too I’m renting a car so we have freedom
  6. According to trustpilot, temu is a love/hate relationship with 39% of users rating it “5” and 41% rating it “1” and very little in between. I also suspect that bots might be used for the positive reviews to average out the bad ones’ impact Who knows. i don’t even point my browser to it because I don’t want its cookies on my device. I’ve never had a single problem with Amazon and probably spend at least 2-3k/mo there. Temu is rated "Average" with 2.8 / 5 on Trustpilot WWW.TRUSTPILOT.COM Do you agree with Temu's TrustScore?

  7. He came into my house and started taking taking pictures of himself with my art, but when I told him to stop, he immediately complied. The “air” about him is “Russian Thug.” He was fat and hairy. If those are his pictures, they are heavily altered. There is no square jaw or flat, smooth stomach. During the massage, he kept whispering in my ear that he’d move in and make me his bitch. I’m neither a bottom nor a sub, so I don’t know where he got that idea. There came a point where I said “we’re done” and, rather than wait for an Uber, I drove him home. While it cost me time, it assured that I knew where he was staying. At this time (I’d say 2-3 years ago), his circumstances seemed pretty bleak and now I know why. Honestly, I had the sense he was a good guy with kind eyes that circumstances had changed into a weird, scary, confused dude. I’d avoid at all costs.
  8. His ad says he’s bisexual. This doesn’t seem odd to me
  9. I had one provider turn me down because he felt I needed something a little more therapeutic than his skill set offered. He preferred that I purchase other offerings on his menu. On that day, he was probably right.
  10. Update: Since I'm rushing to book for a trip this weekend, I went ahead and booked Courtyard at 475 Yonge St since it looks close to some of the gay areas described above. I had narrowed it down to that or The W but since we don't expect to spend a lot of time in the room, I opted for less $. So, what do you recommend for entertainment for my friend and I? We would like to visit the nude beach if the weather is good and it's a comfortable excursion. Neither of us has been to Toronto and our friendship is relatively new. Spas, restaurants, other activities?
  11. For hotel, right now I'm looking at something near CF Tower with a view of Nathan Phillips Square. I presume this is central with easy access to activities?
  12. and, is Hanlans Point Beach worth it and is it difficult to get to?
  13. What are the best parts of toronto for entertainment and hotels?
  14. Under what name? He’s scary…
