  1. Welcome to the site @rockymeet. AllDayChemist is very much online and functional.
  2. I am!! On public transit in NYC, many still do and I fully intend to keep on. It seems an excellent way to avoid wintertime respiratory miseries of many kinds.
  3. Several providers have been discussed here as, ahem, ripe targets for this particular interest. A quick search of RM screening for the word 'scent' brings up the following. You can probably find more with similar word filters. The first, Bennett Anthony, somewhat newly based in NYC, is legendary for his 'personal aura.' https://app.rent.men/BennettAnthonyx https://app.rent.men/RockoNewYork https://app.rent.men/Straighthalfarab
  4. Yes. I find pharmacies do it automatically, last year I only noticed it when I looked at the paper they gave me. This year I plan to get it at my place of employment, I've asked and they assured me they will have the senior version. I'll ask again before the jab.
  5. Wow, he's long been on my "faves" porn list, especially his vids with partner Adam Rogue. Always seemed so sweet in his videos, lol. Reminder, as if one's needed, that porn is always a performance and the guys we admire and jack off to are fictional characters, not the actual men performing. Crazy.
  6. Lots to see on his Twitter @jacksonxhowell
  7. I've posted this elsewhere but I think it bears repeating. Emtricitabine / tenofovir (generic Truvada) is available from a number of US retailers for about $30/month, no insurance required. https://www.goodrx.com/emtricitabine-tenofovir
  8. Emtricitabine/tenofovir (generic Truvada) absolutely is available in the US, from US pharmacies, and has been for a few years. First FDA approvals were ~2017, although commercial availability was later. If my Dr prescribes it, my pharmacy manager fills it with the generic by default. GoodRx shows a number of retailers offering it for ~$30/month https://www.goodrx.com/emtricitabine-tenofovir
  9. That's a question you almost certainly should call to ask. https://www1.nyc.gov/site/doh/health/health-topics/monkeypox.page Under Eligibility: "Vaccination is free and available regardless of immigration status or residency." But still, it would be good to check with someone. When I went they did check my photo ID, but not sure if that included a check for residency, or simply to confirm the info I had input online.
  10. For the record, my (big company-provided, commercial) health insurance covers both (generic) Truvada and (brand-name) Descovy 100% in formulary with no out of pocket, no special authorization needed.
  11. Happy birthday David!!
  12. When I got my first MPX jab in NYC, one of the screening questions was, have you received a Covid vax or booster in the past 28 days. If yes, you were disqualified. Presumably, once the new Covid booster is rolled out there will be guidance about the MPX II shot.
  13. A complicating factor in all this is the recommendation that a MPX vax not be given within 4 weeks of a Covid booster because of the risk of myocarditis. We expect new Covid boosters to be available soon, late Sept or early Oct, but that overlaps the window for the MPX II for many. My priority is the Covid booster, my risk of MPX is really minimal, but others will differ.
  14. Fully agree with FrankR, that you need to see a doctor and get clear on this under his/her care. However, a few broad aspects of this (I am not a medical professional, I am on PrEP and have been for several years.) In the US, the 2 drugs (combos of two drugs actually, emtricitabine and tenofovir) used for PrEP are Descovy and Truvada. They are both one pill daily. Descovy is newer and generally preferred because it's "lighter" in medication, the big whammy of Truvada isn't deemed necessary, although Truvada is available as a generic so your choice may be informed by what's available to you. PrEP is taken on an ongoing basis, it's strongly advised NOT to stop and start based on your sexual activity. Once you're on it, you stay on it. Most people report no side effects, or other impediments to taking it (other than availability/affordability if that's an issue). PEP is essentially the same thing but calibrated for suspected post-exposure. I believe the regimen is higher dosing, and may involve another drug. Many have reported that a course of PEP can be difficult to take, with unpleasant side effects. The two approaches aren't combined. Get on PrEP, stay on PrEP, that's it. Guidance that I've seen is that it takes 10 days of daily dosing of Descovy or Truvada for full protection. Obviously that's an estimate, but the key is not to assume you are fully protected tonight if you took your first pill this morning, your body has to ramp up to full protection. But please do all of this with a trusted physician, or at least a provider from a sexual health clinic, to make sure you're clear on your situation and options.
  15. Why?
  16. Hi Manuel, welcome to the forum!! You're way more likely to get useful feedback if you provide some idea about what you look for in an escort. Style (twink, muscle, bear, etc.), position (top, bottom, verse), other attributes that appeal to you (height, coloring, etc.).
  17. No info here, but wow, craigslist! There's a blast from the past!!
  18. A quick Google produces this, which includes Dr. Foshee, Dermatologist (and maybe others). You probably prefer a male provider, but advertising to an LGBT etc population as she is, you can be sure you're not bringing her anything she hasn't seen before. https://www.pride214.com/gay-friendly-doctors "Asking around" is important, too. Gay friends, other providers (like a PCP), community support resources, hell ask your favorite bartender. Gay men are hardly under-represented among dermadocs, there are probably dozens in practice in a huge metroplex like DFW.
  19. And using Google Images, it seems the pictured model's name is Raymond Zommer
  20. Google Images is still available and functional for me in the US, using Firefox, Edge and Chrome. It may be country specific if you're not US-based, or using a VPN that puts you in the US. I know that doesn't answer your question about an alternative, but I doubt there is one as the technology relies on Google's amassing and cataloging, well, everything in the known universe.
  21. In NYC at least, there is a great difference between the services of a masseur in a spa setting, where a generous tip is appropriate and expected (100% of the fee or more, depending on the quality of the service), and the services of any provider in a private setting, where the provider is getting the entire agreed upon fee. I might add a bit to the fee for a masseur or escort who goes the extra mile, ahem, but I don't feel any need to tip someone who provided service at an agreed price for $180-$300 or more for an hour.
  22. The BlessedBoy of video fame (OF, TimTales, Himeros, others) is a cute, furry Brazilian cub bottom. Not the same guy.
  23. ThisVid.com You can make your uploads private and only "friends" that you approve can see them. The site player does not allow downloads. However, AFAIK anything that can be streamed to a computer can also be downloaded/saved using one of many third-party browser add-ins. In my experience the bandwidth for the site is often trafficky and trying to stream from there is very stop-and-go. Sometimes a download is the only way to watch vids smoothly, especially longer ones. Also, some of the content posted there is REALLY raunchy, there doesn't seem to be much moderation, so you're in wild territory.
  24. I do think this is a trend in GBTQ etc etc spaces of all kinds (can't speak to the L part, as that's fraught for a lot of reasons, and not my wheelhouse). The promoter of the monthly naturist event FCGN in NYC is clear in promotion that all bodies and expressions are welcome and safe there. Now it's a social, not sexual, event which of course matters, but it's fundamentally pitched at gay/bi men. When I have gone it's been mostly cis/homo, but there have been a few women, transfolk and various gender expressions in attendance (and naked). I've also been to sex events where transmen were present (discreetly, wearing shorts of some kind, and not active in the play), and have received notices of other sex parties that make it clear that gender variance is respected. As an older GM, I think maybe some of us get cranky because what we want no longer wants us very much. Fair enough. But I'm mindful not to project that on younger people, who have a very different life experience and worldview, which includes a broadening view of sex and gender.
