It's okay. Wasn't it your birthday?

@Unicorn I can just imagine what the staff put up with when you were employed. How did they like it when you said nanny-nanny boo boo to them?

Demeaning people for their race is bad whether done in a sexual context or in the real world. It is not a "fetish." It is a sickness.

Your Ethan posts ...wouldn't one be enough?

Why is it that @Unicorn rude post attacking the poster and not the issue still standing?

I-bonds are written up and recommended in today's Wall Street Journal. There is a paywall, so here are some hints: To be sure, no investment is perfect for everyone. But series I bonds have so many attractive features that they represent an “absolutely superb” investment opportunity, says Burton Malkiel, author of the investment classic “A Random Walk Down Wall Street.” If I buy these Series I savings bonds, what’s the minimum amount of time I have to hold them? At least one year. If you can’t afford to lock up any money for at least that long, these bonds aren’t for you. But if you can, keep in mind that they can continue to earn interest for 30 years, or until you decide to cash them in, whichever comes first. If you redeem them before five years, you lose interest for the previous three months. “For example, if you cash an I bond after 18 months, you get the first 15 months of interest,” the Treasury website says. If I buy now, am I guaranteed to get that 9.62% rate for as long as I hold the bonds? No. That 9.62% rate is only the initial annualized rate on new I bonds sold from May through October of this year. That rate “is applied to the 6 months after the purchase is made,” the Treasury site says. “For example, if you buy an I bond on July 1, 2022, the 9.62% would be applied through January 1, 2023. Interest is compounded semiannually.” The Treasury resets the rate every six months based on a formula tied to inflation. Since nobody knows precisely what will happen on the inflation front, we don’t know today what the new initial rate will be starting in November. “Rate updates affect both new and previously issued bonds,” a Treasury spokesman says. “The composite interest rate that applies to a Series I savings bond is updated every six months from when the bond is issued until the bond matures.” For more details on how the bonds earn interest, see the Treasury’s site. Are there limits on how much of these bonds I am allowed to buy each year? Yes. The annual limit is $10,000 per person, according to the Treasury. You can buy the bonds in electronic form from Treasurydirect.gov, and you can also buy up to an additional $5,000 a year in paper I bonds by using your federal income-tax refund. Also, many investors buy Series I bonds not only for themselves but also as gifts for relatives, friends and others. https://www.wsj.com/articles/series-i-savings-bonds-what-you-should-know-11652834560?mod=hp_trending_now_article_pos4

A week later and it is up to $5.62.9 a gallon. $67.50 to fill my tank. I have never paid so much.

I met a guy on a bus from the airport. I learned later that he was a flight attendant. I had sat next to him, noticing that he was sleeping. Cute guy! His head started tilting toward me and soon it was resting on my shoulder! How's that for a come on? Yes, we ended up having great sex in my hotel room. I never saw or heard from him again.

Watching ESPN tonight, White Sox v. Yankees was painful. The broadcasters really aren't interested in the game. They love to hear themselves talk, and they do more interviews than calling the game. Plus the Yankees lost twice. Judge, Trout and Ohtani hit homers today, so I liked that.

The prices paid versus the time allowed are hilarious! $700 for a 60-minute massage?

His listing now says he is in Palm Springs but will be going to New York for a week. His profile says he lives in Ireland. From the posted pictures, which @glutes says are outdated, he is super beautiful.

You don't want to know!

Former MLB umpire Dale Scott has written his memoir about being an out gay ump: https://www.ebar.com/news/books/315655

Interesting that your post says that you are quoting me, but I didn't post that picture.

Maybe the cumming attractions forum, except that he is departing. The deli seems a reasonable spot.

The good doctor has to resort to name calling as well as cheating. Yes, shameful. A friend in San Francisco tested positive today. He is sick and had to cancel his trip that was supposed to have started tomorrow. Tell him there are no consequences to getting Covid.

Yes, let's cheat on the Covid test so we can get on a plane and infect the people near us! Lovely idea @Unicorn.

This was actually in the NY Post article: Fellow porn performer Buttplug Betty tweeted, “I’ve watched the video of Logan Long peeing on me 5 times today. I’m so f – – king sad he was such a great guy.” https://nypost.com/2022/05/20/porn-star-logan-long-dead-at-34/

Still true.

It seems to me that a gay pride event in eastern Europe would be fascinating. Wouldn't there be lots of Bel Ami types there? I have never been to Eastern Europe* and know little of Belgrade. What surrounding areas would be convenient to areas to a trip? *I have been to Prague and Budapest.

A Strange Loop is the talk of Broadway, but not this forum despite its very gay context. It won the Pulitzer Prize and now 11 Tony nominations. It has received stellar reviews. So why so silent here?* The Guardian review today says: A Strange Loop review – Michael R Jackson’s thrilling Broadway triumph Jason Veasey, James Jackson, Jr., Jaquel Spivey, L. Morgan Lee and Antwayn Hopper Photograph: AP Lyceum Theatre, New York The audacious and uproarious musical, which leads this year’s Tony nominations, is a meta masterpiece about a Black queer writer writing about a Black queer writer Michael R Jackson’s A Strange Loop is many, many things. Cutting, uproarious and crushing, it doesn’t try to be all of these in its hour and 45 min running time, but just is. A gymnastics-like excavation into one man’s search for himself complete with “Black shit!,” “White shit!” and “butt-fucking!” Usher, a Black, fat, queer man, is a begrudged usher for a Disney Broadway show by day while, in his free time, he works on his masterwork A Strange Loop, a musical about a Black, queer, fat man writing a musical about a Black, queer, fat man, and so forth.

@Caliboy95 How was your trip to Chicago? Did you take up any of the suggestions here?
