Wow... thank you for sharing this with the group. There are no words to adequately express the appreciation due to you and all the other front line workers. I know you aren't looking for accolades, but I think you and every other front line worker deserves to be commended and recognized. You are being put in an impossible situation with respect to supply chains and decision-making, and my heart goes out to you for what you are enduring now and will be for the coming weeks. My hope is that if this woman does indeed succumb to this pandemic, that her dementia will protect her from realizing her family is not around her. I saw news reports here in Canada that families are now using walkie talkies to say goodbye to relatives in hospital. Heartbreaking. Please take care of yourself. This is a horrendous situation but you will get through. Blessings to you and everyone fighting this pandemic on the front lines.

Im not at all familiar with him, but it sounds like he was already a person of faith before entering porn, made a career choice he came to regret, felt he may have inadvertently harmed others somehow by making that choice, removed himself from the porn industry, and made a public apology as part of his change in directon. I doubt that would have been an easy or comfortable thing to do, and I wish him well on his new journey.

A good question. I don't think this pandemic has helped define meaning in my life, but rather has reconfirmed values that I had already been trying to live by. We all know there is a tremendous amount of heartache, sorrow and fear associated with this virus, and there have even been those who have used this pandemic to their own benefit. Human nature can be harsh, selfish and unforgiving. But I'm trying to see the silver lining: people risking their own safety to help others; faith groups providing support to communities in ways they hadn't served people before; people taking a necessary pause from their busy lives and realizing the importance of relationships again, now that social-distancing is the norm; the recovery of some ecosystems suggesting that the Earth is far more resilient than we had realized; and, humanity being forced to adapt to changing conditons and waking up to the fact that we are not invincible. These are just a few of the 'positives' I have noticed. This is not to suggest that corona is a 'good' thing by any means - it is a virus, and viruses don't have values, just effects. And corona continues to have many terrible effects, but most challenges we face can also have some positive effects if we are willing and able to recognize them. The question, as I see it, is whether these societal changes are temporary, or whether the pandemic has actually changed people's hearts for the better in an enduring way?

Hmmm... if it was me, probably a destination that rarely has seat sales. On my bucket list: The Seychelles The Maldives Some place in East or South Africa for a safari Manaus for an Amazon cruise Perth for Western Australia and the Ningaloo Reef But $2000 may only get you economy class for those routes.

Beam me up Scotty...

I think I'll change my name to ObliviousByNature since I've never realized how much 'action' there seems to be out there until reading all the posts... lol.

Out of curiosity, does anyone know what the HIV transmission risk is for someone taking PrEP and also using condoms? I have seen figures for each separately, but not in combination. Thanks....

We can't assume that anywhere is clean. There are many infected people who do not realize they are infected, and will be inadvertently infecting many others. There is not enough testing capacity to say that any place is clean, and not enough restrictions in place to ensure any degree of cleanliness, in my opinion. Wiser to sit back, stay socially-distanced, and have a clean conscience when this is over that you didnt accidentally infect anyone who could not fight this. Just my two cents, as always. ?

Goodnight Mary Ellen... goodnight Jim Bob... goodnight John Boy and poolboy48220... ?

Sorry this happened to you...

Thats good to hear and encouraging. But I hope he's being careful about social distancing at this point...

Sorry, but I have to ask... where is Tom? ?

Possibly next to the Jane Fonda Workout beta cassettes?

I'm not. But I wasn't before the pandemic either. I've always tried to be content in knowing others are working out... lol.

Now, that is insulting ?

Kermit the Frog should be given a chance to narrate. I mean, it isn't easy being green after all.

There seems to be a correlation between a crisis and the desire for greater human connection. People may tend to naturally seek others for comfort in times of uncertainty, which makes social distancing that much more difficult. One more challenge to overcome when trying to isolate oneself.

Hopefully he was just having a bad day. I dont see anything in your correspondence that would be offensive. You asked him if an earlier meeting was possible. It was not an ultimatum. You let him know you were running 10 minutes early, and the way he responded to that was a bit snarky, for whatever reason. You had no idea he was eating. Many people would have just showed up at his door at 4:20. You also assured him you could wait until the appointed time. Perhaps he is stressed out because of the current situation, and I dont want to judge him. But you did nothing wrong in my opinion. If 4:30 or 4:20 was potentially going to be a problem, he should have told you that the original time was preferred when you first asked about an earlier meeting. I expect he was trying to please you by agreeing to an earlier time. But that kindness was sort of erased by his later reactions. You wouldnt have known or anticipated that, and I have no doubt you would have kept the 5pm time had you known what would have happened. But none of us are mind readers... at least I am not. I hope he contacts you, and that you can work it out. Or reach out to him in a while. Both of you are likely very kind people who got off-track via electronic communication, which is never as clear as face-to-face. Just my two cents...

Not sure if this helps at all, but he is also on Rentmen: https://rent.men/TopNotchLatin

Sorry... I just recall the photos and the name Brad or Bradley...

I think his previous ad was under the name Brad - I remember the photos.

I think this masseur is in Queens... https://rentmasseur.com/FABRONN

This looks to be the same person, also based in Phoenix... https://rent.men/CochinoBlk

Haha - yes! And here in Canada we have the 6-piece, but half the time they miss one and I end up with 5.
