Agreed. I've accessorized mine with decorative beading, tasteful glitter and colorful construction paper. It really adds something to the experience.

Yeah, this hit me the same way as someone putting ketchup on a Chicago dog.

Exacerbating these possible failures with lifestyle choices is the likely culprit here. It's still unfortunate, but avoidable. You can only chase the party life for so long. It all catches up.

PrEP was highly unlikely the cause for what we're talking about here.

People make a huge deal about this, but the actual decrease in function is miniscule. Under 2.5% in the worst cases. Let's be realistic: You have a greater chance of injuring yourself from long-term usage of aspirin than PrEP.

Hep A&B vax. PrEP (either injectable or pill). You can also look into DoxyPrEP if you and your doc think it's a good idea. Meningitis vax is a smart idea. HPV vax series is a must. More gay men need it. It's not pushed as hard as it should be.

I started this in September and yes, it's more effective than oral forms of PrEP. Actually, it's incredibly more effective. Hence why I pushed my doc to get it and administer. https://www.poz.com/article/apretude-approvedthe-first-longacting-injectable-prep-option

I've always had good luck with Juan and his company. Have used them for airport transports, as well as having a driver on standby for getting to the marina, going shopping or just an evening outside of Zona Romantica. https://discoverpv.com/private-transfers/

Makes sense. Equally as frightening is not having medical insurance when something like this happens.

At that age, how do you already face heart, liver and kidney failure? Genuinely curious.

Agree. It was typical self-loathing, torture-emo porn Ryan Murphy drivel.

I love the score/show, but I can't stand Ben Platt. However, I'm in the minority on this. Encores did well with this one.

You're not understanding what I'm saying. As a guy who's spent a lot of time in KW over the years, you missed showing the true charm of the island. The little spots, like Bahama Village. The local business owners. The arts scene. The incredible musicians at places like Virgilio's and Little Room. While the gay strip has gotten much smaller over the last twenty years, it's still got a few great spots for a drink and a dance. It was mostly drive-by, dashboard cam footage... And that's fine. I'm just glad you finally got to experience it, but if and when you go back, stay there for several days and really dive in.

There's some homophobia in some of it, sure, but there's also a resurgence of prudism in today's society. You'd think otherwise based on OnlyFans and social media, but that's really a small subset of super-jacked guys. When you've spent your life behind a screen and on a keyboard, you never really learn to have the in-person confidence it takes to navigate things like locker rooms, public nudity, bathhouses, etc. It's just a foreign language to them. You can immediately see their discomfort with something they don't know. They can't hide it. The biggest oddity I see with OnlyFans creators is that while some of them are absolutely beautiful, many are best left as solo models. Once you insert hardcore fucking, you see the cracks in the veneer. No ability. No rhythm. No passion. Just a dead-behind-the-eyes fuck between two very pretty people. I can't sign off on that... Much less get off on that.

Having manners (and some self-respect) has little to do with being wealthy. Let's never forget, money usually screams. Wealth whispers.

Exactly. A cheaper or older model will have a tough time running newer, RAM intensive, power hungry apps. Nature of the beast. Tech is constant movement.

I'm sad you didn't really feature any of the island. KW is a magical place. Go back and spend some real time there.

The last time I was at Casa, their pool party was a sad state of affair. They had obese go-gos working it. Literally. Like 40+ lbs overweight. I didn't understand it. Perhaps they're going full-in on the whole 'inclusion' thing. We'll see how long it lasts.

While I've always been a huge fan of Amex Platinum, I'm just finishing up my first year with the Cap One VentureX and it's been worthwhile. I'll keep it around for awhile. They have airport lounges. Good kickback perks. No foreign transaction fees. Their hotel program isn't as strong as Amex's FHR, but it's better than what Chase's top-tier cards offer. I don't think their customer service is at the same level as Amex. That's the only caveat.

What model of iPhone are you running?

Who gives a fuck if the guy is gay, bi or straight? Haven't we moved past this kind of snark? The guy reads a teleprompter for a living. Let him be. He's doing his thing. And frankly, he ticks all the standard anchor boxes.

Don't let your dick do the thinking... That's a fast way to get asked to leave your gym and learn an embarrassing lesson. He's a trainer. Have enough respect for that to stick to the script.

Thanks for the boots-on-the-ground report. I'm seeing this later in the month (and excited to hear the score... Even the recycled bits Shaiman used from Smash) What irks me is that online chatter is already going full-woke over the subject matter and how it's being handled. Is the show really that problematic? Edit: As for ticket pricing, right now people want to be entertained, hence why you're seeing discounts for the more serious plays, but shows like Moulin Rouge and Wicked remain sellouts at nearly full-price. I'm seeing tickets for Salesman as low as $20 on TDF. That makes me sad.
