I long for that…for me it might be a sizeable sailboat with no destination…

I still use the basic pie crust from Piefolk, always.

Amazon pharmacy is getting me the generic at $15.79/month, auto refill, they contact my physician. All automatic.

I *think* you can join, search, etc without paying. But, you will not be able to reach out and send messages without a paid account. I just looked at my closed account a day or two ago after seeing this thread. I had 60 messages, which I can’t read unless I pay again. Over half of the messages were from account that were already offline/deleted…people come and go there.

I think my use of the word “connection” here isn’t really a dating long term use of the word. What I’m saying is there is some connection via more messaging, maybe phone calls, coffee date or whatnot before spending fun time together. i.e. vs. NOT a Grindr or other “quick” hookup. Plus, on seeking it’s 99% known that the younger guys are going to get contacted/involved with an older gentleman.

I think this is where “seeking” works well….connection before transaction. Maybe takes some time, but fulfilling and makes the rest a bit more meaningful.

Good catch, the $290 premium is for 90 days, too bad the OP never saw that. I was always month-to-month, zero billing issues.

Moderator alert/warning: let’s get this topic back on track, stop sniping, or this topic will get locked.

Well, that’s unfortunate. While I’m not currently a paid subscriber, I was for over 8 years, month-by-month, and never had any trouble with their billing or support. If you look a few posts up @56harrisond has posted several topics above that relate to seeking arrangements and their latest name seeking.com. It’s a valid point that it takes more time. I had very good luck on there, at least I did after my first year or two when I started to realize how to better filter through the profiles and messages. I’m still in a relationship right now from someone I met there almost 5 years ago, we see each other and travel 4-6 times a year…it’s not a monthly allowance type arrangement. Many will be quick to say seeking.com leads to expensive monthly arrangements, I’ve found that’s not necessarily true, and have met many quality guys there.

Barry Keoghan in “Saltburn”.

He calls himself “naturally smooth” in his ad

His ad (at least from the OP’s original link above) is no longer active on RM.

I follow one of these guys on IG.

I’m certainly not dissing our constitutional rights, nor anyone’s right to pay $1000. I’ve paid it myself! My point is as a group we do sometimes “pile on” in a negative manner, kind of a herd mentality, it does bother me.

Can I please double 😍😍 this one? And imagine kissing/licking my way up those smooth thighs to that bubble 👅 <sigh>

Looking at his ad this morning his Crestline location surprised me…and reminded me of many, many trips to my Grandfather’s “fishing cabin” near Lke Gregory in my youth! I’ll book a hotel in the IE and try him when my schedule frees up a bit.

Perhaps a provider will add more detail, but yes it is a paid promotion, paid for on top of a regular advertisement. It spans across multiple areas, so not unique to your location.

A not so passive form of trolling. And as a group our “pile-ons” disappoint me.

Season 1 fun fact: I visit Honolulu often for some (non-profit) work/meetings. The place I stay has a great view of the Ala Wai Marina. Most mornings I see the “Via Mia” head out and return for an early morning coffee cruise tour. Took this pic this morning. She’s the boat used in White Lotus Season 1. If I’d taken a picture with more background, you may have recognized the Ala Wai Marina entrance is also the scene of Gilligan’s Island the “Minnow” headed out for her 3 hour tour.

Well in the 5 minute method there is no kneading, that said you do have to mix the flour, water, yeast, etc. together, can be done on machine with dough hook or similar. But no kneading. The basic concept is you make the dough, it ferments (I forget how long), but then you keep a batch in the fridge that you carve off a grapefruit sized piece of dough, let it rise a bit, and then bake.

Here’s another whole ‘nother way to go, very, very easy…minimum amount of equipment/tools needed. This got me started with bread (well I’ve baked forever) about 15-20 years ago. Now I’m a sourdough starter everything by hand baker.

Well, I don’t want to brag but:

Pumpernickel isn’t bread baking 101, it’s advanced class 🤣 maybe try something simpler while you get used to the machine.
