I wanna see the video. Out with it. And don't give me that oh, it's just me eating tacos and sightseeing bullshit. We're here for the naked backroom action vid at CC Slaughters

A nickel ain't worth a dime anymore these days

Amex tends to be extremely pro-customer when it comes to chargebacks, so this is a way for Rentmen to prove the charge was valid from the beginning. It's a PITA for sure, but it protects them on the back end.

It's because you're using an Amex. Use a Visa or MC, and it won't be as problematic.

This is absolutely spot on. Fire Island is now where young gay Manhattan goes to all try to keep one-upping each other. It's exhausting as fuck to be around. Unless you own the house or know someone who does, I'd say go to P town instead. My most fond memories of being on Fire Island are when I was sequestered in a house, away from the mounds of social bullshit in town.

HB created the original board and review site to let guys share info on both ends of the spectrum. He was one of the first creators in his position to be directly pro-escort, going as far as to have multiple private spaces on the board meant for escort access only. He started both the board and the review site as a creative brainstorm with Aaron Lawrence. The real secret to his sauce... What he did better than anyone was understand how to properly monetize his site without charging a penny. Grated, at that time, it was a lot easier than it is now. The forum changed because it had to. Same with the reviews. We continue to roll with it.

The Broadway boards are lit up with this and it's a damned shame it's happening. I don't condone violence, but hell if there won't be some NY'ers who handle this hateful crowd the old fashioned way.

From the looks of it, mostly veneers and accutane. Perhaps some delivered meals and personal training when he was with CK, but now, notsomuch.

You're missing an important 'R'

No doubt, in his prime he was cute. Somehow he never took the advantages he was given and parlayed them into a future.

YOKO? ... Oh, no. Bubble is a national treasure.

The scale of these remind me of Gilbert & George.

But do you remember when gay porn was still silent, before they went to 'talkies?'

For you, always

From this escort perspective, not always. For me, a longtime regular is moved into higher rates at a slower pace, but not grandfathered forever. We choose our own rate, for better or worse. An escort has to figure out if they can survive taking less business, but stick to a higher rate and get the people who can pay it. That's not the model for everyone. I will say that an escort who spends a long span of time with clients will end up spending his own money to make money. It comes in varying forms of spend, but it's definitely there. It's a facet of smart business: You can't just keep taking from a client without giving something back.

Hey, wasn't For Your Cock Only a Bond film?

Is there option for those cocktails at the Polo Lounge in the Beverly Hills Hotel? I like their patio better and I don't have to be in Palm Beach.

I mean, I can beat you with cookware if that's your thing. I'll even bring the nice stuff from Williams-Sonoma. Get a little freaky with a Le Creuset Dutch oven.

Based on what I see, it's the edges of his glutes that give it away as implants. From a kinesiology perspective, proper squats would build more than just his ass... And that doesn't show on his hammies and quads. There's also a ton of people doing fake BBLs using multiple syringes of collagen activators like Sculptra. This could be a little of that as well.

If it's as much of a dumpster fire as the West End version I saw, this might not be around for awhile. And let's hope ALW treats his Broadway cast and crew with more respect than he gave the London company. Cast is great. I'd watch Carmello sing just about anything, anywhere.

Xanax is a helluva drug.

... And the casual racism

I love how some of you think Rentmen gives a shit. They aren't the BBB. They're outside of US jurisdiction. They have zero skin in this game. There is some good advice here though. Use every tool you have at your disposal to make sound judgements. Also, and I know the OP doesn't want to hear this, but if you tread in a highly unregulated industry, don't be shocked when you get involved in unsavory things. If you've got a lot to lose- and it sounds like you do- you need to be more careful in the future.

After watching every available episode of this show, I feel like @purplekowand I could have had a ton of fun writing for it. Filmed in nearly an identical format to the old Columbo series, this accidental detective-murder solving series stars a very charming Natasha Lyonne and a massive roster of guest stars in each 26 minute episode. Literally, it's insane how many great actors show up in this. From the music to the titles to the editing, the show just feels vintage. It's a loving wink, for sure. Not campy. Just comfortably lived-in. This is the creation of Rian Johnson, otherwise known as the writer/director of almost everything now.
