    If DHS is posting this warning it's because they have picked up chatter from someone. Unless the warning specified who was involved we don't know whether it was Islamic or right wing (perhaps purportedly Christian) terror groups or some state actor.

    mike carey reacted to + APPLE1 in Nonsmoker? Is smoking (tobacco) still a thing nowadays?   
    Yeah, but those damn ethics get in the way. I mean if we could have a control group and an experimental group where we locked them in cages and kept everything the same besides the pot, we would have our definitive answers. Until then, we will have to speculate if it's the pot or possibly things like lifestyle changes that may accompany it, i.e., I'd rather sit around all day and get high instead of using my mind and body.

    mike carey reacted to + APPLE1 in Do Little Lies Matter When Dealing with a Provider?   
    I do feel like anyone who is strict about punctuality, should let a provider know up front.
    While I am normally on time for client meetings, I can also say that clients I see who are rigid on absolute punctuality, pay more. If I have to set aside a block of time ahead of them to make sure they get in my office at exactly 3pm, they are paying for that.
    I remember years ago being chastised by a client who had to wait a few minutes. At our following appointment, I announced that he needed to stop talking, and it was time for him to leave my office. He was aghast. I explained that, I knew punctuality was important to him, and I was sure he wouldn't want to be the reason another client had to wait a few minutes. He had a different perspective on my punctuality for our subsequent meetings.

    He can call a longer appointment whatever he likes, if he tells you what his overnights involve before you agree to the appointment, then there is no deception. If you agree to his terms and set the appointment and then later tell him that it wasn't an overnight, that's on you not him. I like over-night meetings, but a 5-6 hour appointment seems too long to me (unless it involves agreed out-of-the-bedroom activities) so I wouldn't accept that version of an overnight.

    I have clients who are involved in politics. One of them is a member of our upper chamber (I’m in 🇬🇧). Here it doesn’t matter too much. We don’t have those religious conservatives …they left a few hundred years ago by boat. Not sure where they went 😉.

    Overnights are different for everyone. You, the client, communicate what you want and what you expect. Your provider will propose a fee, a timeframe, and you go from there to land on a mutually agreeable arrangement.
    Typical overnights are around 12 hours, sometimes a bit less, sometimes a bit more. Baseline: 9pm-9am. Maybe start earlier or end later. You negotiate and agree on expectations ahead of time in terms of duration, activities in bed, activities outside of bed, how much (if any) sleep you expect to get, sleeping arrangements, and the fee.
    You might start early evening with dinner, maybe cocktails, or whatever relaxation activity floats your boat. See a movie, visit an art show, go to the beach, dance at a club, play video games, go shopping, whatever the client wants based on his interests. A lot of times it looks like a traditional nice dinner date. You talk, you flirt, you connect. Some of my clients like me to give them a massage, body scrub, and manscaping in addition to, or instead of, meals or other going out activities. It can look however you want. 
    Then the really fun part. Usually one or more rounds of sexual activities you like, often going into the wee hours. It could last from 2-4 hours, maybe more, depending on a few factors. You might break these romps up with snacks, laying in one another’s arms, talking, watching a show, or what have you. For some of you kinky bitches, these can be pretty long, drawn out, and elaborate sessions. Maybe others join (arranged ahead), but usually just 1:1. 
    Then some sleep. Perhaps only a few hours. Maybe 6-8 if the client is satisfied with plenty of action the night before and the morning after. You might like to sleep cuddled up with your provider. Or in an adjacent hotel bed, or in completely separate rooms at your home, or whatever works best for you both.
    Some clients want and expect their provider to stay up all night. That’s ok too, but please do communicate your expectations up front. Most of us can’t go for 5-10 hours at a time just having sex, and not everyone will be good company staying up that late. There’s a natural limit. Drugs are another matter, however. If you want to party, be sure to find a compatible provider and be upfront with your expectations. 
    After some nap time, you might wake up to your man initiating another round of sex. Morning wood is raging. Things happen. Then coffee/tea, breakfast, more chatter, showering, and getting dressed. Maybe you skip breakfast and go out for brunch.
    Pay your provider, and he’s on his way!

    The cost of processing cash is hard to pinpoint. There's a cost associated with depositing cash, a cost associated with the armored carrier who collects the cash and takes it to the counting facility, a cost associated with counting the cash, and a cost associated with obtaining cash. There are also the costs associated with complying with myriad anti-money laundering laws, the "know your customer" reviews, and on and on and on.
    Working on a Bank Secrecy Act/Anti-Money Laundering compliance program was an eye-opener, as was overseeing the relationship between a long-ago employer and its armored courier and its banks.
    The thing about vending machines is thieves will test stolen/counterfeit cards at self-serve gas stations and vending machines. Also, fraudsters will attach skimmers to the card readers. It is easy to go undetected because oftentimes no one is monitoring them.

    I've always understood this to mean you're waking up the next morning with your companion (and maybe breakfast and another ejaculation) before they head home.
    Can't say I have personal experience but most every comment I've read here is about a sleep over session, not a five hour hang n bang.

    The morning news here commented that a felon can't vote, but a guest pointed out that in some states felons who are not in prison can vote. Two states, totally at random, where they can are Florida and New York. The guest also noted that a felon on probation is required to seek the permission of the probation board to travel out of state.

    As much as merchants loathe paying fees for credit card processing, there’s also an expense associated with cash handling (drawer counts, bank visits, etc). It seems very short-sighted to pass these fees along to customers.

    My hobby is languages.  As I've mentioned in other threads, I watch a lot of Spanish TV & movies.  Every day without fail, I watch something in Spanish even if it's just a 10-minute YT video.  Some days, it's hours of binging.  I learned Spanish in Salamanca decades ago, but it got woefully rusty until I discovered Spanish TV via Internet a ~decade ago.  My speaking ability is actually (far) better now than it was at the end of my year in Salamanca, and my listening comprehension is at least 10x better.
    I also picked up French again after a 4+ decade break in study.  Yikes, more rust than the remains of the Titanic!  I've been doing Duolingo for only 6 weeks, but least I haven't skipped a day so far.  My goal is to be able to watch French series & movies on Netflix without English subtitles.  That's a long way off, but hey, the longest journey begins with the first step. 
    And last, I watch YT videos in my original but forgotten native tongue, Tagalog (Filipino).  Unfortunately, my parents didn't know that you could raise kids bilingual and were very worried that I wouldn't learn English.  As soon as I picked up English in kindergarten, they stopped speaking Tagalog at home.  But I still understand it OK and was delighted to find a few great YT channels in Tagalog:  one about Filipino history, one by a guy dedicated to reviving the Spanish language in the Philippines, and one hilarious cooking channel by a super-campy gay guy.
    Interesting note:  I can watch Tagalog YT vids at 1.5x speed just like almost every video in English despite very limited vocabulary (my vocabulary in Spanish must be 20x my Tagalog).  I can watch Spanish vids at 1.5x also, but it requires so much concentration that I'm mentally exhausted after 5 minutes.  Learning a language as a child must set in your brain in a way that adult learning simply can't match, no matter how much effort you put in.
