They are adorable together. I like Rami very much, I wish he were a better actor but unfortunately even though he does what he does very well, it's all kinda one note. One impressive note. Mr. Robot, a pretentious bore to most, to me only gets better each time I watch it (3 times total). I like his steady same-note performance, the flatness of the co-stars, particularly Meryl Steep's daughter, and the absurdity of the story. If you give the show patience, some slack, and some love, it's quite good. I hope The Man I Love does well (I don't know the other actor, Luther Ford).

I always feels sad when I see SMG. She never was able to get past the Buffy label. Same struggle Sally Field initially had with Gidget, though Sally Field, a much better actress, eventually did push past it. I love you Buf..Sarah!

Here's a good interview with the Director. The interview will reveal what you find out about the older character early on in the film:

Saw this at a Q/A Saturday. I was the only audience member who asked a question, people are too timid. Both Reed Birney and Kieron Moore were excellent. I expect good things from this director and nearly zero recognition for both actor's performances because of the film's subject matter. Kieron Moore's as a Camboy with bravado is probably the least controversial thing about this movie. It doesn't go as far as Mysterious Skin does, but it's liable to piss off lots of people (who probably won't be bothered to see it). I would resist the urge to click the times review only because 10 minutes into the film there is a big reveal which Wesley Morris couldn't leave out of his review. It's a strong movie for strong thinkers. Enjoy. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt34915693/ https://www.nytimes.com/2026/05/07/movies/blue-film-review.html Kieron Moore Boots:

Which completely contradicts the purpose of a default setting, "...eliminate the need for users to repeatedly select preferences, letting the system carry out standard actions automatically."

I've told this story before. Years ago I was fucking a guy at a party. An hour or so later in a different room I was going to fuck him again and asI started to roll on a condom his eyes widened and he asked, not angrily but clearly turned off, "were you wearing a condom when you fucked me before?" I looked down and said yeah, hugged him as I always do when intimate interactions are over, or in this case when they didn't resume, and walked away. It was only later that I realized my "yeah" was sheepish and that in a way I was apologetic for wearing a condom when I fucked a guy (silently in a dark room where there is no conversation, no Heated-Rivalry dialogue laying out of the terms of each interaction, you know...a sex party). It simply struck me how much had changed from the years of men being the bad guys when they DIDN'T wear a condom. As you said, a 180.

If they don't list "daddy's" maybe it's because they just like other men. I'm in my 50s now and am absolutely turned off by that term, Daddy, it's not my scene. When I was in my '20s I was having sex with guys in their 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, and yes 90s and not once did I ever call any of them Daddy, nor think of them that way. They're guys. I'm a guy. We are guys: Guys in different or similar age brackets who kiss and cuddle and fuck and talk. Daddy is overused.

I was 9 when that movie came out and I was floored by that line. 1. It didn't fit the otherwise gentle film, it's as if little Drew Barrymore came up with it on the fly and they left it in 2. I simply could not reconcile Penis and Breath. hmmmm??

For years Peter Attia has been, and remains, much more than a Guru to me. Thanks to him and to his brilliant guests, my exercise is much better, my sleep is remarkably better (and it was already good), my Mental Health picked up, and my Metabolic Health and diet improved as well. Additionally, he's a fantastic interviewer, his podcasts have no ads (take that Hoberman) and if you are a member like me you get a lot more useful material. Anyone who read his bestselling book Outlive knows that long ago he was friends with Epstein and that Peter Attia at the time he wrote the book was ashamed of himself and his decisions in the past, including that friendship. With that information public, people continued to appear on and listen to his Podcast. Then private emails from a decade ago were revealed, and we found he and Epstein, shock, said inappropriate things to each other. Of course if at the time of their friendship Peter knew what monstrous things Epstein was up to, then he was even a worse person then than we knew. It's more the Timeline I find damning than the things they emailed which can be read as simply vulgar, or vulgar and complicit. We can't know. But the timeline indicates to me that their friendship did continue once we knew what Epstein was guilty of doing. What we know is Peter did something wrong, befriended someone who turned out to be Evil, and gave him medical advice, he cutoff the friendship and discussed those bad decisions openly in his book, Outlive (excellent book). He did not break any laws and is not suspected of breaking any. We always knew he was not Board-Certified, he did not hide that. I think he would have been brilliant at his new job at CBS news, and I absolutely understand why they would rescind that. Hot potato Hot POTATO! On his podcast, he has not had one guest since these emails came out in January. Every episode since has been interesting and important, but no guests. I don't want to lose him because he emailed vulgar things (he who is without sin release his own private messages). What do you think? What I've hated in all this is the media classifying him as a Longevity influencer. That's dismissive, superficially accurate, and grossly short of what he offers his listeners. -RH p.s. I was going to put this in the Podcast forum but thought it'd get more eyeballs here.

Take it from a West Hollywood guy who frequently visited Shutters and Casa Del Mar, and has a collection of their Rubber Duckies as reminders of those good times, provided it's not in the HEIGHT of Rush Hour, you should have no problem getting an escort across the 405 to see you. Have fun!

He was so beautiful in Borgias I could hardly follow the ridiculous story.

I found that having friends who know is only a relief/helpful when those friends are clients or have escort experience. There will always be those you feel you can't tell, and the few you do tell can't really get it without their own context/experience and frankly, after the initial shock maybe, aren't particularly interested. Make friends with escorts and with clients if you want confidants.

You hit it perfectly there. When you have every reason to expect a deep makeout session and your tongue gets blocked right away, it's worse than disappointment it's treachery.

I agree with VM, during a massage you should leave the room, even if you are good friends. And do leave the room, there's no reason to be uncomfortable during a massage. Oddly, as an escort I never wanted a client to leave the room to fart, or even turn around and say "excuse me" to burp, we were already so intimate it seemed unnecessary. Also, I had a high bed and getting in and out of it, particularly if one was heavy and/or older, was a bit risky.

Before I received my pacemaker in my early 30s, I often fainted during injections. Not most of the time, but often so I never knew when I'd wind up on the floor. Post pacemaker I can inject myself and I do!

Everyone has a different body, nevertheless your Repatha injection shouldn't be particularly painful, at most a pinch. Make sure you leave it out of fridge for some time before injecting, not just 10 minutes. Also, with your other hand you can do a modified, oh what did nurses used to call it, some thing like a Z-stretch? Anyway, if with index finger and thumb of opposite hand you press down and pull out around/near the injection site before and during the injection, that might help. It's a miracle medication glad you are on it, sorry it hurts. p.s. I also take Dupixent and I love how much that one hurts because it FEELS like medication :-). I've still never given myself and IM injection, I'm impressed by those who have.

Movie was dumb and beautiful. Highschool teachers should not assign that book. It's a masterwork, but the only kids who read it should be kids who feel compelled to read it and for the rest of us it's better later in life, we're better able to understand years-long all-consuming furious anger.

Thank you for this. I Loved his first depressing book and his second SLIGHTLY less depressing book :-)

I just got back from Patagonia (El Calafate and El Chalten) a few weeks ago. Hope you're not going soon, in their winter; much better for exploring the rest of the year. ANYWAY, what a fun destination to invite an escort. You're a dream client :-) You're right, find someone sporty. If you're both hikers, you're in for a treat! (and also remember that Fitz Roy can remain stubbornly in the clouds and unseeable for days.)

I'm a fucker not a shopper, this idea of shopping during an overnight or multi-day experience, actually part of the fun and the compensation, is strange to me: Apart from dinner or a show all I wanted was to spend the time wrapped up tight in the client.

Years ago I remember a friend of mine who met up with us at Joshua Tree for a Rock Climbing weekend, Erik. He was dating Craig at the time. Erik had little experience desert-camping, and asked craig what he needed to bring. Craig said just a sleeping bag because you and I will share a tent and you can use my climbing gear since you're flying in from Colorado (to Palm Springs). Erik froze every night* because the bag he brought was basically a Sears Catalogue Sleeping Bag and Joshua Tree is a desert, ie fucking cold at night. For the rest of his tooShort life Erik blamed Craig for not being sufficiently specific about what kind of sleeping bag to bring, and Craig maintained for the rest of his also too short life that Erik should know, even if he is inexperienced, that deserts are fucking cold at night and therefore he needed a Winter Bag (it was October). What we think of as common sense isn't that for others and the consequences and resentments suck. *Technical sleeping bags are too narrow to share.

Never saw one episode of that show. Sara Jessica Parker looks like a foot.

Saw it last night. Wasn't bad. It wasn't good but it wasn't bad. I had to close my eyes during the Lady Gaga scene. 20 years. Holy shit 20 years ago. How is that possible? 2006. It was one year later that the iPhone came out and ruined absolutely everything that the characters in the movie say is since ruined.

Ok, so all of you who are smitten with Heated Rivalry and have not watched Letterkenny, are you going to? The dialogue is incredible. It's on the same level as Gilmore Girls dialogue. LetterKenny's first 4 or 5 seasons are very good. I recommend LK WAY above Shorsey, which is not bad, but LK is much better. I sang that show's praises here years ago. How are you now? GoodnYou?
