I want to add OUTbound travel to the above list. I've sailed with OUTbound in 2023 and had a fantastic time. He provides a top tier experience.

True. I've worked for local government for the last quarter of a century. For my own sanity, I will not read the local section of the newspaper while our state legislature is in session. Since I have no personal power to control what happens either way, it's best I wait until the legislative session ends to see what new laws were passed and how they affect me and what I need to change to compensate for them, both professionally and personally. Thankfully, our legislature is constitutionally restricted to meeting for only 120 days every 2 years; so, that's only 120 days where I need to avoid the local news. It's the unknown that's more nerve wracking than the final law, executive order itself, or court ruling itself.

True. I've read studies that showed people in their 30s,40s,50s have more anxiety than other age groups, regardless of time period. It's ironic because that's when people typically have the greatest power to change their circumstances, because they have decades of experience and still decades more of opportunity. When I was much younger and hadn't figured out which news sources to trust, I discovered that I felt less anxious when I watched news that wasn't always "picking on" the administration in charge. So during one administration, I watched one news source. Then when the administration switched, I switched news sources. I will admit that those same 2 news sources, which are around today, have grown extreme in the way they lean. So now I avoid television news altogether and try to read only newspapers, and even then read them with a lense to focus on the facts and not the reporter's opinion. In summary, I don't think it's the events of the day which is causing increase in anxiety. But rather, it's the new way those events are reported. We've had civil wars, nuclear wars, depression, famine, and terrorism in the past. But at least then we only read about it once a day from one or two sources. Now it's instant, non-stop, and mostly opinion and speculation (hardly news).

At the risk of being called a Pollyanna, If you have relatives.... It means you're not alone in this world, which is privileged If you have employees.... It means you are a business owner or manager, which is privileged If you have health insurance to begin with, you are privileged. If you make enough money to not qualify for subsidized Medicaid, you are privileged. If you have a job to lose, you are privileged. So... Start training and looking for that new job before things get so bad you're forced out. Start taking care of your health and find the resources you need before you are hit with an emergency. Start advertising now for new employees with the right to work in your location. Start reaching out to extended family members for housing and jobs in your home country. It would be more stressful to NOT read the news and just rely on rumors from talk shows and Internet forums. There's no way to prepare for the future if you don't know what's changing.

Yes. That's for 30 minutes with one boy. Be sure to he agrees to the 50 Euros before hand, just in case.

Rates are mentioned several times in the comments above, as recently as July 5. Have a quick re-read and you'll find it. You may have to scroll back a page.

I've been to the Lodge, and reported my experiences here: I'll probably visit the Bear party two more times on my trip to NYC later this month.

There's a few of us young folk under 50 and with mixed backgrounds of colors. The dog owner hypothesis on representation makes sense. Most of us don't want pussy 😺 🐈

Yet another benefit of Men having sex with Men!

From this thread:

He's a good looking 59 year old 😍

I thought Ren Men ages were just a randomly generated number that is assigned when you create an account, randomly selecting a number between 21 and 39, that stays with the account through the decades. 😆

Yes! I'd rather have a good trained massage from an average looking guy than a horrible massage from a good looking guy at a premium price.

Same here

Glad to hear about both of these developments! And I'm always thankful to law enforcement in such situations as you experienced as well.

Prince Alberts used to be a turn of for me as well. Then one evening at a men's clothing optional hotel in Ft Lauderdale, I was in the hot tub when a man with a Prince Albert walked into the tub. I promptly spoke up and said "I've never had sex with a man with a Prince Albert before". He stood up, got out of the hot tub, and motioned for me to follow him. We went to a room and I had so much fun enjoying that man with his Prince Albert. So, I look at them as great conversation starters when naked in a hot tub with a stranger.

Yes, that would be much appreciated. Any report from an actual hire is worth 1000x more than someone's opinion who never hired the guy. And thank you, in advance, for digging up old posts and adding to them, rather than starting a new topic every time. We all benefit when your review can be read along side others', if possible. Just be very mindful in the Spa section not to compromise the masseur's license. If you hired a masseur (instead of an escort), limit what you say about any sensual activity. Keep your review succinct stating whether you would hire him again or not, if the massage was deep enough, thorough, mechanical, etc. You'll find dozens of people asking you about the details of the sensual components, specifically if sex was involved. Usually the people asking have never left a helpful review on this site themselves. Remember to not provide more information about activities offered than what the provider already states in his own advertisement. Welcome again!
