I've heard that of course, I just don't understand how the excitement of the expectation vs. the uncertainty and likely disappointment makes the anticipation worth it. It's me, personally I don't get it. I do get it's a thing :-)

In the past on hide.me I always selected Germany. Recently I've had to switch to "Netherlands" and it works again.

Can't recommend Brother Printers highly enough. Mine never ever drops the connection. If the power fails (somehow West Hollywood is like San Pedro, Honduras: the power goes out constantly), it picks up the WiFi connection no problem. https://www.brother-usa.com/home/printers-fax

Loved F. Murray Abraham's response to his entitled, smartass Zillenial Grandson: “It’s not like it was ever so beautiful to look at anyway. It's a penis, not a sunset." !!

I've never understood why clients go through the work and frustration of hoping/searching for more with a masseur. If you want more, hire an escort, problem solved.

Time is Provider's responsibility, 100%

Why? How? Why? She's just lifeless.

I don't know who Selena Gomez is, but if she's an actress, but she's a TERRIBLE actress. Unfortunately, season 2 underused Shirley McClaine. She must be expensive. Still, Second season was better than the first. I used to see Steve Martin at il Picolino on Robertson. He always sat alone, wore a hat and read the New Yorker. A few months ago, Il Pic, my favorite restaurant in America, closed. I wonder where he'll go now.

Wasn't able to watch it last night. Can't wait to watch it tonight. Was suprised there was no NYTimes review, I guess there's just too much content out there and they have to give space to stupid dragon shows and such. Hope Season 2 is just as fantastic as S1.

I read the book. I wanted to like it more than I did. Oh well. I forgot they'd made it a movie. A similar, much better book, I hope you like: https://www.amazon.com/Story-Marriage-Andrew-Sean-Greer/dp/0312428286 Until 5 months ago I had no idea who/what Harry Styles is/was. Now I can't get into one of my favorite cafes because he ate their once and now it's always mobbed. Or he mentioned it in a song. Or both Or whatever. Beachwood Cafe. I still don't know really who he is.

Alec was/is WONDERFUL. Someone I'm very close to and I worked with Alec in 2004. This was before Alec was a body builder and was simply fit (and, in our opinion, simply fantastic). Here are his reviews from his non-superBuilt days. https://web.archive.org/web/20050201061733/http://207.14.53.20/reviews/alecandrewsla.html Saw him around the neighborhood and we both shared the same gym. Great guy.

I love all these remembrances. He hired me long long ago, we had a great time and I was very happy to have met this wonderful man.

The pressure from others and from oneself to get "off-meds", meds that are working, can have dire consequences. I often think of David Foster Wallace. The medication for depression, and other mental illnesses, he'd used for decades was becoming almost obsolete when compared with newer medication. And, so, he changed to the newer medication which allowed him to streamline his medications. Unfortunately, the newer stuff didn't work as well, he went back to his old medication, but it just didn't work like it did before he stopped it. Shortly after, he hanged himself and the world, and his wife and dog, lost a genius. As to the original post, Escorts take medication, just like people.

I just saw him two weeks ago at WeHo Starbucks. I used to talk to him during lunch at French Market. An INCREDIBLE flirt. :-)

I find the pervasive feeling taken advantage of problem interesting. At 21 I was leaving for Costa Rica to do some field work. I was also flat broke. A friend who was coming to Minneapolis from Honduras for the summer agreed he was going to rent my apartment at $150/month while I was gone. Two days before my departure, he told me he was going to live in his parent's empty for-sale house in Minnetonka instead. I was incredibly hurt. Part of that hurt was the panic, I did not have $1 to play with, much less $150. I ended up selling skis, back pack, climbing gear, all sorts of stuff at Play It Again sports, at a HUGE loss, just to make up the money the day before I left. My point is, we had an arrangement, he backed out of it, and I felt taken advantage of LARGELY because I had no resources. What I don't understand, is when people who have resources allow themselves to feel taken advantage of, or, rather, I get it, but I think that people should be able, maybe with therapy, to think past it. My blindspot on this problem may stem from the fact that I've never had money. I can't know what it feels like to have money and to feel like others have their eyes on it. Still, as I've said here before, if you have the means, gift to people, don't loan. (Fuck Polonius, he's dead...and made up). If you can afford to let a hot young guy stay at your place rent free for a few months, for a year, for the foreseeable future, forever, do so. If you can help someone, and it's no big financial cost to you, maybe try to adjust your feelings and take a look at the benefits....to both of you.

You are of course very savvy, go for it. I'm curious, why are you not sharing your bedroom as part of the "rent"? I know you want to give him his space by giving him his own room, and that's very thoughtful of you, but can't you give him his space and cuddle every night?

Completely surprised to hear this. Had absolutely no idea there were ANY working men on the streets anymore. Good for you. The absolute hay (HEY!) day of LA street hiring was on Selma Avenue in the 70s. The center of that universe was the Gold Cup coffeeshop. It was wonderful when John Water's mentioned the street, the action, the coffeeshop by name recently on...I think it was on Bill Maher, maybe elsewhere. Good for him. This will be nostalgic, or informative, or both. Enjoy: XXXXXXX---OOPS, I had no idea what that website was all about before I posted it, it's gone now. SORRY!!! 10/25/22 https://digitallibrary.usc.edu/asset-management/2A3BF1O9PN1E5?FR_=1&W=1204&H=1014

Oh believe me it's much more insidious than that. They have users on Amazon, Yelp, Tripadvisor posting MULTIPLE fake reviews to make it look as if it's credible. It's a whole industry, this world SUCKS! :-)

How I love this show. How How I will miss this show. :-(

Definitely needed a big star or two for there to be any hope of it making any real box office. Oh well.

Sounds awful. Can't imagine how terrible being imprisoned would be.

I'm unsure if the Four Seasons ever received Michelin stars, regardless I regret deeply not eating there more often. Never would I have thought that place would close, and the pre-theater menu price was reasonable. Never wait, always do.

I've met many many men with micro-penises. It still functions like a dick, it still has all the same nerve locations, SO if you encounter one just keep that in mind :-) I'm very good at cocksucking, so I feel terrible when one's too big for me to FULLY deepthroat, I kinda feel like a failure. I would say that in general men are way way too scared of choking on dick. What's the big deal, really? You are not going to choke, you are not going to die, you are not going to be uncomfortable for that long. Yes, snot will fly from your nose and your mouth. So? Yes, your eyes will water. So? Yes, you will FEEL like you are going to die. But you're not going to and eventually, someday, those feelings will lessen and eventually vanish. There truly is only one way to get to Carnegie Hall. I mean, are you REALLY a swimmer if year after year you insist on keeping your head above water? I would say no, not a true swimmer. Choke a bit, your body will thank you later and so will his.

In my early 30s my quads were about as muscular as quads can be without steroids (they weren't competition level beautiful of course) . And one day, or over a few months I guess, I realized it was just awful. Not worth it. Even following a HardGainer routine where I'd only lift weights, at highest intensity, twice a week, I still felt physically sick for days after a squat session, and I did in my 20s as well. Steroids would have improved the speed of my recovery, but I wasn't willing. As beautiful as they were, and you can look at the archives of rodhagen.com to see them, and as proud of them as I was, I feel like I lost out on a lot of pleasure in my life by working so hard on them for so long. Lots of mountain biking days and snowboard days and rock climbing days and swimming days and surfing days were denied to me because I was simply too sore. Nothing I can do about that now.

If you use a proxy server you can read the details of the reviews on RentMen, and while NOBODY details the encounters as in depth as in the Hooboy and then Daddys days, you'll likely find the full texts helpful. Unicorn, I love that you think Rentmen should be as incorruptible as yelp. :-) both because Yelp and tripadvisor services are, and always have been, quite corrupted by businesses paid to post bogus reviews, good and bad, and also because en-mass we escorts pay Rentmen more than clients do and therefore they work to make us happy. It's not a flaw, it's a feature. Which is why Hooboy long ago thought it was very very important that any useful review-site be free.
