... And thanks for dodging the real one

If I had started this, I might think about simply deleting this whole thing. This is one of those times that a thread reveals more about the original poster than the subject in-question.

Steroids are a helluva drug

So, you're judging someone you don't know by the actions of an entirely different person? Yeah... That sounds as ridiculous as it really is. Everyone is different. Everyone has their own vibe. To discriminate against someone because they're openly lesbian is shitty. If she's the best candidate for the job, she deserves the job.

And for me, this would be a reason TO go. It's a responsible business practice in the COVID age.

Agree. As much as I like Celia Suarez (Pau), I think that when they lost Veronica Castro (mom) after season one, the show never fully recovered. She brought a gravitas to the show and that perfect Spanish novela timing.

Veering even further down the rabbit hole, I'd say that Grindr is the ruination of a guy's ability to effectively communicate his sex needs. It's changed the way and language of how people hook up (or don't, based on the extreme number of flakes). It's kind of fascinating to look at. As for baths, you've got places like Steamworks (Chicago,Berkeley, Seattle, Vancouver, Toronto) that attract a wide variety of very good looking guys, as the facility is considered the gold standard. Then you have second-tier like The Club chain, which is usually hit or miss, as the facilities themselves are a franchise and not all kept in the same state of upgrade/repair.

I meant, the reaction video was a joke. He's done it with multiple situations (and he's funny as hell). The pax needs to be banned from airline travel for life after this. Airlines and the FAA need to take a zero tolerance, no strikes approach to these incidents. One and done. Go ride a bus.

It's a character choice. It's because Pau is always on xanax.

Several years back, I suffered through him attempting to recreate Judy Garland's Carnegie Hall concert. Having heard he was still trying to do her catalog, I took a look at his latest video... It's still garbage. And he's changing/missing original lyrics. No bueno. Arlen would be pissed.

This is a joke video. It's not actual.

PrEP has become so inexpensive that I'm filling a piñata with it during my next party.

Baths and escorts don't really compete with one another: That's like saying 'does Grindr hurt your industry.' There's room for everyone and the experience an escort offers is a LOT different than rolling the dice at a public bath. Added, there are only a handful of decent baths left in the States.

If you usually stay at a 4S, the most comparable properties in Dallas are the Ritz in Uptown (on McKinney Ave) and the original Rosewood, aka, The Mansion on Turtle Creek. Both strong hotels. Ritz has the better location for walkability, but Mansion has the better bar and atmosphere. I'd also recommend The Crescent, as it was just redone top to tail. It looks incredible and they've got a decent Nobu in the lobby.

Like most people, you're putting the cart before the horse. As other people here have suggested, figure out your real issues first and then work on getting laid. Sure, you can be a creeper at a gym and risk getting thrown out or publically humiliated, or you can attempt to be a happier, healthier person by working through the real issues that you have. They won't magically be fixed through hooking up. Emotional voids can't realistically be filled by Grindr.

Once again, we learn that Rose Byrne can basically do anything. I've loved her since Damages. This show is razor sharp, very dark, incredibly funny and will likely force you to re-examine the way you communicate with yourself. Plus, I'm a big fan of any show set in the '80s. https://tv.apple.com/us/show/physical/umc.cmc.6gdc6v4vwyaab7klocftv2s10

https://www.hbomax.com/series/urn:hbo:series:GYIBToQrPdotpNQEAAAEa First off, I'll watch anything with Jean Smart. She's fucking awesome. This show was a slow-grow on me. It didn't bowl me over after the first episode the way something like Ted Lasso did. It built and developed characters you both love and hate. Quite like real life, actually. It's definitely worth a watch.

I wouldn't rave about it, but it's not total garbage either. My favorite thing about the show is seeing how they set-dressed the Four Seasons Maui to look like The White Lotus.

AA is nowhere near as bad as this. At least they still have ops at DFW handling the weather and reroutes. This is what happens when seasonal weather and lack of pilots/equipment collide.

All true, but I still have a little admiration for someone who's got the chutzpah to sell overpriced merch out of her trunk. I can neither confirm nor deny having once bought a $45 tshirt in the parking lot of a Ralphs.

For those here who live in LA, I can't see a car like this and not think of Angelyne.

They're differences. That's all. I never said either one was bad. In the absence of a negative, there's not always a need to find one. A rose is a rose is a rose

Where did I say that again?

He has a fetish, not a type. There's a difference.

It's a tough business. When you put pictures online, you automatically invite cheerleaders AND critics. ... And we didn't examine every flaw. Just a couple in-question. We've all been through it. Water off a duck's back.
