  1. It's more theatre for public consumption. You can see how Corporatocracy has affected our culture and the media.
  2. Truly good Thai masseurs come and go in NYC. Most of the guys I've met are here from Thailand on student visas. Since Covid I've barely seen any listing's for authentic Thai.
  3. The torso pix appear to be from different people or different periods of time. The first photo is from a 40 year old man while the last is more like a 30 year old.
  4. When I was a little kid back in PA, my Pennsylvania Deitsch relatives used to serve roast goose at Christmas celebrations. It was delicious but a bit greasy. I remember that only the older generation knew how to cook it. Once they passed that was the end of that tradition and we always had Christmas ham after that.
  5. Thanks. I always understood that Lombardis was who invented pizza as we know it. I just looked it up. And we are both right. Pizza sid originate in Naples. But pizza in the fashion as we know it throughout America was invented in NYC. I agree that the way they make it in Italy is better. (Fresh Mozzarella and fresh whole basil) as opposed to American style with shredded dry cheese and basil cooked into the sauce. The dough on American pizza is also different. And of course millions of pizza places don't burn the crust and without a bit of burn, it's not really a good pizza.

  7. Roasting a duck at home is a bit of a messy game. They're a fatty bird
  8. No it doesn't. It's totally cringe.
  9. "I'll risk dying of incurable syphilis for an extra $50".....🤪
  10. Get me a spoon. I could just eat this one up. So delicious every time I see him.
  11. There are many examples of people throughout history who took matters into their own hands, when they felt the normal hand of justice failed society. Like I said...I am not condoning vigilantism, just noting that the young man was intelligent and not without a code of ethics. He was no "mad man" as I see the media wanting to paint him.
  12. Cute couple. I haven't had a threeway in ages. I'd definitely consider these two worthy of getting back in that saddle.
  13. Wow. that's some serious James Bond technology...attaching tiny radio transmitters to wasps.
  14. Cute kid...but "6'-0" and 145 lbs" in his description doesn't match these photos...so proceed with a degree of skepticism.
  15. Vigilantism is always a slippery slope to be endorsing. It can quickly unravel the fabric of society. But we need to remember there is a point where people will just start saying they've had enough This Brian Thompson guy was hardly the "lovely family man" and "decent human being" that he's been portrayed in much of the media. He was a terrible Corporate Crony who heartlessly screwed thousands of people out of the health care they deserved in order to bring massive profits to investors. I'm not condoning that people take matters into their own hands, but presenting these facts as a balance to this perception that Mangionne is some sort of unhinged mad-man. He HAD a mission, and he had principles. Taking it upon yourself to assassinate someone is hardly the answer to these kinds of problems. But we do have to wonder, at what point will others say enough is enough ? 162K views · 15K reactions | Put your tin foil hats on because this...

  16. My understanding..(and maybe I'm wrong)...but pizza as we know it is an American-Italian invention. The flat breads in Italy had tomato and herbs but no cheese. It was in New York's Little Italy that they invented the round brick oven version with Mozzarella as a significant ingredient. Even tomato 🍅 is something that is American. The Europeans always thought it was poisonous until they saw the Native Americans eating it.
  17. Well put. Thanks
  18. This is all VERY sad and disappointing. But when I hear things like this I am less inclined than others to cry "scumbag" and more likely to ponder what abuse he must have suffered himself as a child. This kind of behavior is very often traced back to a repetition of childhood abuse. The abused becomes the abuser. Quite depressing to discover he monetized such awful examples of rape.
  19. Absolutely. Unfortunately when it arrives on the American shores it's usually dumbed down, not improved. I would say the only thing that was a brilliant American adaptation that really hit was 🍕 pizza.
  20. Interesting. In the US you always end up with bell pepper. Just another American bastardization of a recipe, I suppose.
  21. I don't understand why people can't keep their feelings out of basic cognitive realities. Luigi Mangione is indeed a good looking young man. *FACT* You aren't condoning his assassination of an insurance executive by acknowledging that.
  22. Exactly. By creating a "health insurance" system instead of "hospitalization insurance" they built a monster that needs to be fed. I remember going to the doctor when I was a kid. My mother would PAY the doctor with a few $20s. When you'd go to the pharmacy for medication you'd PAY for your medicine. Also $10 or $20. Now the insurance system is so bloated with cash that everyone from Hospitals to Pharmaceutical companies are happily suckling at its teet. Most everyone who travels to Mexico makes a stop at LaFarmacia to take advantage of the prices on pharmaceuticals that are 10x cheaper for the SAME drugs. Only in America can they get away with this theft. Because we are all FORCED to participate !!
  23. Who gets go determine this morality ? Most "homeless" aren't just lacking a home. Health insurance used to be for hospitalization..not regular care. You paid your doctor / you paid for your medication. By wrapping everything into insurance coverage they merely made all the normal expenses MORE expensive becasue now there's a gigantic pile of money to draw from...and everyone raised their prices to take advantage of it.
  24. * damn * I wonder if these pics are actually him. Smokin hot.
  25. Watched it last night based on the recommendations here. So thank you, gentlemen. Decent production value. Interesting story. A bit slow to get me caring about anyone...but it gets there eventually. What I found most "excellent" was Ruaridh Mollica's delicious bubble butt. Which we get ample viewing time of it in action. I enjoyed his performance (the acting as well as the sex scenes). I hope he gets the opportunity to do more in the film industry.
