  1. This is probably very true for numbers. At the same time you need to account for absolutely massive squeeze on descent inside Russia. No viable opposition organizations left without "Undesired element" status or "Foreign Agent" designation, which limits their ability to operate financially and organizationally. Single most famous opposition leader is in jail on trumped up multiple charges, most others are pushed out of the country. The law and enforcement agencies reign in full force, and with the slim pickings for law, smaller infraction bring stronger punishment and stronger resentment. The strategic nuclear forces on high alert is only part of a global propaganda campaign for defense of the motherland under attack. That was in response to some"offensive words" Putler heard from the West. Rockets in response for words - I have not much left of my mind to boggle any more. Most people in the US have no idea what they had at hand before they started pulling monuments off pedestals. This fucker is willing and would knock off all pedestals. Everywhere. The American left is even more blind to authoritarianism than the right, and they are much more willing to instigate it domestically. The same rejection of descent within their midst, inability to handle difference of opinion, inability to argue their own point but to scream and shut people out instead, the whole PC business, unwillingness to find the facts, "safe spaces", and the same onslaught of approved talking points or language. Plain, exemplary, everyday fascism, accepted everywhere - don't leave home without it. Any fringe group that was extreme but went Mainstream in the last 2 years - all show the same symptoms. The rest in the major media are eating that up smacking their lips - they have nothing else of their own to offer. I'd note that it's not Russian Empire (while that also existed and fell to the Bolsheviks in 1917 after 2 revolutions transitioning to a Civil War there) but some re-institution of the Soviet Empire that Putler is after. All the talk of masses and working classes and socialist romanticism is from Marxism before and after 1917. Then it had been vanquished. That is where most bridge it into much later Soviet era, when authoritarianism by Joe Stalin exterminated the masses and instituted the layered repressive state that Putler is reinvigorating all these decades after. Again, lack of comprehension and detail just shows a need for better level of attention, professors first. If there is a will. There is also a cram-session Disney version available. But beyond his ugly strife to leave his mark in history, Putler's done the opposite - nobody wants to touch it now. Fucked it up for the whole country and for generations.
  2. Negative. I know that country VERY WELL. Let's just leave it at that. I will advise you to not speculate on your own accord if you have never studied the original works of V.I.Lenin, Karl Marx, Friedich Engels, or at minimum Dialectics of Marxism at the better Uni level. The anarcho-neo-socialism bravado of your generation has ended with Occupy Wall Street, and I don't give a flying fuck how much flack I get for that. It is over for them. I can't tell which propaganda side you are listening to - that is not even interesting. Russian history is moving in 50-70 year chunks that are cyclical, and this is one of those cycles. They have successfully created a new enemy for state propaganda, and now everything will be thrown at defeating that enemy, what will starve the people in return. The return to more liberal society will take 2 more generations of misery for the people. If you don't see the return of the Iron Curtain in the financial sanctions that are just now being announced and that the world overnight (just not overnight for Russia) is yet again is on the brink of a nuclear war in Europe, you need to go to school and pay attention studying. Independent sources in Russia published yesterday stats for the first 3 days cumulatively of "monumental" protests - 12 to 25 THOUSAND people on the streets country-wide, 1700+ arrests for public disobedience, et al. (which is pretty high IMO - around 10% mark of showing). In the country of 145 MILLION. Where is the monument you're talking about? Everybody is just fuming on social media - that's it. The only mass response I see is from the volunteer response to the Ukrainian army and people stacking on Molotov cocktails in Kiyv, not Russia. Have you inquired, or you believe 1 source for your info needs? I have multiple contacts in Moscow myself, I am well aware of what is happening, but I will not overestimate the enthusiasm, if anyone is even practicing it right now.
  3. Not going to happen - the opposition inside the country is sterilized, and the state planning, preparations and propaganda for this was going on for the past 8 years, since annexation of Crimea in 2014. A lot of very successful brainwash had transpired that mind-numbed the populace into compliance. The similar process that is still transpiring in United States for the last 13+ years in its own way. But at the same time I don't believe that Putler would live long enough to go to Hague as a war criminal that he is. His inner cowed circle may end up being brought there, but it would be much alike the Nuremberg trials in 1945-1949, all farce and no justice.
  4. I concur - Open Mind in BCN is worth it.
  5. While I personally know multiple people who are from that region and still has family there, I don't need to talk about that horror specifically. I have already seen civilian casualties through unofficial media, I can say that collateral civilian damages in the first day are tremendous. There are already military casualties on both sides, including Russians, and I'll just say I am glad Ukrainians are fighting back even being overwhelmed militarily. The Javelins are working. Collective "you" for the people in other European countries need to register that costs of an adventure like that will be global, and it will be unavoidable for any major economy in the West. AND regular citizenry will be paying them out of pocket. When you see higher prices for petrol and diesel, when your heating supply may be jacked, if you lose value in your retirement savings because the market crashed - the ways Putler will impact civilized societies will be unprecedented. That is before direct military impacts and casualties on the ground. There are already reports about military fighting around Chernobyl, where the radiation levels from 1986 disaster are still at play. That alone can become the biggest eco threat to Western Europe when that dust starts flowing with winds after being lifted in the air as a result of explosions. We really don't know how bad this is going to be.
  6. I say there are several worldwide events that would work for that purpose, but as noted earlier - location, location, location - it would either allow you to try things to an oblivion, or it won't give you a chance.
  7. If you have a free profile there - your messages are counted, why would you waste any -thing- on this one. If it is posted in your profile - it is for all to see, even people with reading impairment. And if you pay for service - why would you bother to respond, you're not obligated to engage or to educate the inquiring party. Sooner or later they would learn it, depends on their own ignorance to what goes on bbrt and what doesn't. It just ain't gonna be on your time. And if someone instead is looking only to tickle and only a left ball - would it work for anyone? Sex is still a (mostly) free market - supply and demand situation. Chill or hard core.
  8. My recollections are random and are for the time prior to remodel(s?). Transit wise Pleasuredrome is less convenient that Sweatbox, you'd def need help from a map for the first time around. Characters could be on the street at night in the vicinity. I'd agree that their staff was nicer. But their play areas were more straightforward, less nooks and crannies, and the dark room was singular and smaller, unless it changed since. Sweatbox had more areas to play at and more than one dark room, including dark steam room as I recall. But seemed not all being always well-heated (with the previous owners?), so if not for middle of deep freeze winter, Sweatbox may be in competition to Pleasuredrome IMO. Unless hired security downstairs at the locker room ruins the whole experience. I'd say both places and crowds can be hit and miss and suggest to spend time and visit both.
  9. Folsom is a mixed audience, but mostly gay instead and smaller is Up Your Alley in July, same premise. Wet and Hot (I think autumn instead of July previously). IML for the stompted grounds. At the same time any Pride week or month in major metro areas would produce events that would bring company of play events. You just need to do some homework and figure when and where you wanna go.
  10. I don't remember when I was last asked to pull out. Must've been years ago.
  11. I disagree. Production defects, physical extremes of certain sex practices and strain from incorrect application can also be argued. The author of the law fucked up in explicitly writing in 'removal' without any other ambiguity. It if wasn't removed but still 'failed' to keep its physical integrity, I would argue it's no longer a battery. And accidents are act of god, good luck with that. US is still a (somewhat) free country - AND you are free just as much to be mentally fucked up, and she is determined and is fucked up. But I am not interested in her. If the burden of proof is in fact lowered, that does not require you to lower the vigor of your defense. The court is not looking for an equal match between arguments to get a tie, it is looking for a winning argument. I recall a case of Duke Uni students a few years back accused of group rape. Huge head lines, expulsions from the Uni, feminism all around, and even a few lives ruined. Until it was beaten in court by the defendants. The bitch demonstrably lied. And for CA bill I have a strong suspicion it is geared towards legalized extortion through court by way of at least a civil law. Whatever sticks to the wall. It is definitely sexist. And having it slide through all the legislative process in the age of Me Too's is even more startling to me that Progressive California has no lawmakers that are mindful of equality between sexes. IMO the minds are too politically fucked up to notice what smells right in front of them, but they are willing to use terminology without considerations for its use cases. If you are that determined, you can sabotage a condom without removal and enjoy yourself in undiminished pleasures. And it won't be legally stealthing in Cali. What I imagine would produce additional creative ideas how to do it. And if a law can be that easily bypassed, that just proves once again that it was all for popular naught and for posturing and for virtue signalling. That's why she gets paid as a state lawmaker. I haven't even looked if she has sponsored any other bills, could be a grand one hit wonder.
  12. Indeed. You can hang yourself all by your own hand. That's why lawyers in legislature keep lawyers in courts busy and well fed. But then a bit more background info has to be available to the court - link between anonymized account on here to a certain email address with certain content notification, cross referenced to other identifiable info about you, screenshots, screenshots, - again, burden of proof beyond a shadow of a doubt. Although there are also cases when even circumstantial evidence from prosecution had been taken as fact by some local courts. I've had a condom break, damn sure they are not a 100% reliable. But I still use a very old practice in my book. If I intend to fuck, I never come with my condoms. Then if someone insists to use one, there is a choice to decline or accept. And if it breaks for whatever reason (there are combinations of chemistry and physics <wink-wink> beyond easy explanations), I can't be accused of tampering with it as it is not of my supply.
  13. CA bill does not list device failure as a possible cause, only intentional removal. There is no elaboration to what is considered a protective device - only explicitly a 'condom' - so female devices potentially removed are not subject to this law, and that's explicitly sexist towards men IMO. And that's the progressive California. NY bill has tampering listed as a codified offense, along with elaborate definitions of types of protective devices, so you'd be liable much more clearly, what would definitely lighten the necessary burden of proof for prosecution. Accidental failure is not listed, and I imagine it won't be possible to prove it easily or effectively. Of course one can argue almost anything for either side. Even if you stretch it to an extreme and slice it with a sharp nail before putting it on then claiming a failure, etc, etc.
  14. This thing is removing links : CA [think before following links] https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202120220AB453 NY [think before following links] https://www.nysenate.gov/legislation/bills/2019/s4401
  15. @Bimarried001 You're making a judgement based on a fairly sympathetic article, not the letter of the law. I am not a legal professional but usually I try to understand where I can be possibly liable. Everybody can fully enjoy all things with consent. All you said affirmatively is that you won't deceive. CA bill AB-453 lists the offender to "Act with the intent to cause a harmful or offensive contact". The intent part carries the need for burden of proof for prosecution. Achieving sexual pleasure is hardly that. Harm or offense in sexual battery is more violent than deceit can be. Down the road all of them would be possibly subject to damages. And that is civil law. And included definitions in CA are SO wide - "“Offensive contact” means contact that offends a reasonable sense of personal dignity." Oh boy. The second choice in your sample makes you liable IMO under CA version. NY state bill S4401 is penal law and is more specific IMO than CA bill, but is too early in the process for a final version - capitalization is from official document> "MUTUALLY AGREED UPON BY THE PARTIES INVOLVED WITH THE EXPLICIT UNDERSTANDING AND KNOWLEDGE" - mutual agreement and explicit understanding. And its Section III does cover the deceit in your sample scenario. But if you haven't had a mutual explicit agreement, as most stealthing situations are talked about on here (just not disclosing HIV status, or misleading about it), even if a condom was 'deployed' and subsequently removed, you're not a subject to liability under that draft of the law. And as such it can be argued that it was not a crime. But my question was whether Newson would still sign it if he was recalled. As hypothetical as it gets.
  16. The bill, which the Legislature approved unanimously and which awaits the governor’s signature, would make it a civil offense to remove a condom during intercourse without a partner’s consent. By Isabella Grullón Paz Sept. 10, 2021 The California State Legislature this week approved a measure that would make the state the first to outlaw stealthing, the act of removing a condom during sex without a partner’s consent. The bill, which was approved unanimously on Tuesday, awaits the signature of Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, who has until Oct. 10 to sign it into law. A spokesman for the governor said his office did not comment on pending bills. If approved, the measure would amend the state’s civil definition of sexual battery and make stealthing a civil offense, meaning victims could sue their assailants for damages. Assemblywoman Cristina Garcia of California, who sponsored the bill, said the measure would give victims another resource to hold assailants accountable. “It would also make it clear that this is not just amoral, but also illegal,” she said in an interview on Thursday. Ms. Garcia, a Democrat, said that she had tried to pass legislation criminalizing stealthing since 2017, when a Yale University study brought widespread attention to it. But she ran into considerable opposition. The bill that was approved this week that would make stealthing a civil offense “is a good first step,” Ms. Garcia said. She said she hoped it would lay the groundwork to eventually add stealthing to the state’s criminal code. A study published in the National Library of Medicine in 2019 reported that 12 percent of women said that they had been a victim of stealthing. Another study that year found that 10 percent of men admitted to removing their condom during intercourse without their partner’s consent. Alexandra Brodsky, who wrote the 2017 Yale study and is the author of “Sexual Justice,” a book that addresses various forms of institutional response to sexual harassment and assault, said that the measure approved this week could bring “political and personal power” to victims. She said that it would remove any ambiguity surrounding stealthing — which tends to begin with the consensual act of sex — by defining it as illegal. “Civil remedies are really underutilized,” Ms. Brodsky said, adding that the kinds of remedies civil lawsuits allow for are often more useful to victims. “There are many survivors who do not want to see the person who hurt them in prison and could really use help covering medical debt or could use help having the resources to see a therapist,” Ms. Brodsky said. She noted that civil litigation also had a lower standard of evidence, which could make it easier for victims to prove their cases in court. Similar bills on stealthing have been introduced in New York and in Wisconsin, but neither has passed. Ms. Garcia said she hoped that legislatures across the country would follow suit. “It is a big week for victims,” she said. “It is a big week for discussions around these issues, and it is a big week to talk about consent.” © 2021 The New York Times Company Do you think Newsom still signs it if he is recalled on Sep 14? New York bill is still coming.
  17. About 4 hours for fucking in several sets with 50-50 spread taking breaks every 15 min or so. In the last hour he was getting tired and kept begging me to cum, so I ran out the clock for a while. You gotta love nailing a smooth ass. And fucking wasn't the only thing we did that night.
  18. Is it in the backyard or some new additional space? Cheers
  19. Plenty. It doesn't even take that much convincing - just rub that head against the hole, and it's opening up on its own. Sometimes you don't even have to say a word.
  20. @Openmouthpolicy There is a gayborhood term there - 'sling lizard'. Even if one is getting action being in a sling, it is still not complimentary. And worse if one doesn't.
  21. I must be directly opposite - I cum when I decide to. I don't always announce it. I do not like quickies. I do not like singular-typed activities if we're fucking. And the bottom needs to be always ready and willing to take that load, and continue being willing being fucked until I cum. One of my recent bottoms was told to keep begging me to cum, which he immediately did and kept on begging, and I kept on fucking his hole for quite some time after. By all means we can also take breaks while doing it. To me that puts proper emphasis on being joyfully serviced to enjoy it as well.
  22. Nope. No replacement for displacement. Or turbocharging the displacement. Or both.
  23. Not a doctor, but 'highly likely' - with the number of people on meds in general social rotation - probably not. Just 'likely', with an open time frame. On another note, I don't get the idea of a time-limited deliverable to become poz. That must be one of my faults. Why don't you have fun and enjoy yourself first before you worry that the cum gets sour by the time you get a go?
  24. Very true - I usually rent whole apartments for that exact reason in places where I go to. In some instances the owner was in the same building but with minimal sharing or video surveillance. Local privacy laws and practices can now still interfere (like in London with total CCTV cam coverage including private building security), but in Germany on the other hand you mostly won't have lenses pointed at you when enter or exit, and a wide variety of either in other places. There are some social and legal consequences to you associated with every setup to consider but again, every time - very individual use case, and more frequent now it is more than 1 system involved. What I have also come across recently (in US) is 2-step private security systems where at least one of the keys is not old-fashioned physical or button combination lock but electronic, could also be with an on-demand night-vision camera, and your door activity leaves a trace somewhere in the cloud (even wi-fi) that you do not control but the host does. Again, something to consider when looking at ways and methods how AirBnB places accept/organize remote check-in. And Covid gives even more reason for that these days.
  25. You may be even more outta luck by way of building management as NYC is one of the worst places for it. Building staff knows who lives there, and local NYC law now explicitly prohibits private short-term rentals. If your host is not registered with the City as a hoteling operator not to pay fees and taxes, AirBnB would do that, they had been successfully sued previously, but that is an extended inconvenience from your stand point. The main one being - building doormen also know that you can't let anyone in as you're not the proprietor of the apartment if that entity is not residing on premises. Most condo and coop operators (management companies) specifically limit such things in resident/tenant contracts defining who can occupy the property even before AirBnB shows up. So an expected anonymous open door would be most likely get shut at the street level. And your travel interests have no play in it whatsoever. There are not so many walk-ups left in Chelsea, and to find one available and in your price range on AirBnB could be a futile exercise. If you can find a building that is not a walk-up and still does not have a doorman - those are quite specific criteria that you need to ask your potential host about without raising suspicion. At worst you'd have to keep buzzing people in at the front door while being fucked. At which point getting a hotel may be a lesser logistical headache. There are other places in the city beyond Chelsea where proactive whorring won't raise much suspicion.
