    To clarify: Hepatitis C is transmitted through blood contact. That can be via sharing needles for drug use, unscreened blood transfusions, or sexual practices where blood may be involved. Given that it's not uncommon for there to be small tears in the rectal lining from anal sex, and that small amounts of blood are not uncommonly seen there, it's not shocking that Hep C can and does get transmitted that way. Hep B, on the other hand, can be transmitted not only by blood, but by semen, vaginal fluids, or even saliva. That's why Hep B is *generally* considered the "sexually transmitted one" and Hep C the "shared needles one" - because unless one practices anal sex, the chances of Hep C contact if you don't use drugs is pretty slim.

    You haven't given us those reasons, so I'm not going to speculate. But I'm going to point out: a jury of twelve people unanimously found him guilty - and they didn't opt for second degree or manslaughter, but clearly found all of the elements of first-degree murder. And the Minnesota Court of Appeals heard his appeal - and upheld his conviction. The Minnesota Supreme Court declined to hear his case based on the trial record. The U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear the case as well. So he was found guilty by a jury, and three higher level courts reviewed the conviction and declined to overturn it. And bear in mind - there's no question that Chauvin DID the acts that caused Floyd's death. The question was purely legal - did those acts amount to murder? I'll note this: when the death and videos first hit the news, the Louisiana (my home state)'s legislature was in session and some aspects of criminal justice reform were under discussion. At the time, the primary opponent to much of those reforms was a legislator who was a former deputy sheriff, who'd spent his entire career in law enforcement. He was (and is) the antithesis of a "those poor criminals" type of legislator, and he frequently sponsored bills to expand the reach of criminal law AND to protect law enforcement officers' rights and due process. And he stood on the floor of the House and said he'd watched the videos and they made him sick to his stomach, and that the officer involved belonged in prison for a long, long time, if not the rest of his life. I'll take his opinion over yours.

    Trimix is a drug (consisting of three separate chemicals) injected directly into the penis to produce an erection. Depending on the dosage, it can produce an erection that lasts up to 4 hours, with no additional stimulation required - that is, it just won't go soft on its own until the drug wears off. When used with a tight cockring, it can keep the cock hard even longer, because even when the drug wears off, the ring can be too tight to let blood flow out of the penis so as to go flaccid. In extreme circumstances, that can cause permanent damage to the penis in question. Accordingly, it's suggested to either use a velcro or snap leather (or similar) cockring, or a stretchy neoprene one, rather than one made of solid metal. The snap and velcro ones can be undone and removed, and neoprene can be cut and sacrificed, but if a metal cockring is keeping the cock from becoming flaccid, the only solution is to cut the metal ring off, which is pretty tricky when it's wrapped around an erection.

    Particularly for foreign affairs. It's one thing to put out a domestic policy agenda that will differ from, or go beyond, what Biden has put in place - that's internal to the US. But as a nation we need to speak with one voice (Trump's constant interference with foreign affairs not withstanding).

    Um... Derek Chauvin was *literally* convicted of murdering George Floyd. Were you unaware of that?

    I don't think guys fucking women (by and large) think about the possibility of getting HIV. They can, of course, and some do, but for the most part, a pregnancy is probably a larger concern. And accordingly, most guys fucking women probably aren't on PrEP, either. But gay men, in large numbers, use PrEP or condoms. Certainly not all, but enough to make a big difference in how each fucks (condom or not).

    For the record: the easiest way I know to ensure a guy stays soft so the cage can go on is to keep pouring iced water over his cock. Almost never fails to shrivel up small enough to get it on.

    Or a very unpleasant conversation with a wife about why she needs to go to the doctor to get STI tested. Or both.

    I agree geolocation isn't perfect, though it's *generally* accurate for guys not using a VPN (and BBRT blocks my VPN (Nord), so I can't use that site while VPN'ing anyway). My general rule, though, is to ignore profiles from people who have geolocation off AND who fail to list a location in their profile. To me, that's a sign someone has zero intention of actually meeting up, and is just looking for some kind of cybersex. When a location IS specified, and the person is hundreds of miles away in a location I have no plans to visit, I try to start off nice - thanking for the interest shown - and if the conversation continues, I generally discourage things moving in "that" direction. I only get rude when I get a message from someone who clearly has NOT read my profile (or didn't comprehend what I wrote).

    They're audio tracks (ie recordings - typically MP3 or other audio format digital files) that help induce a trance-like state like hypnosis. They may be overt - the kind of patter a hypnotist uses to focus your brain and attention into that kind of trance - or covert (using similar stuff encoded alongside a repetitive musical track that helps induce the trance) - or both. They work on some people, not on others, and of course the quality varies tremendously.

    And he sees nothing incoherent in asserting - AT THE SAME TIME - that he won AND that Harris and ABC and everyone else cheated. He "won" the same way he "won" in 2020 - he didn't.
  12. BootmanLA
    I'm not genuflecting to anyone. And yes, Dick Cheney has a lot to answer for (and frankly, I wish the world community would hold him accountable for war crimes). But that's one reason why his endorsement of Harris is important: if someone as solidly conservative (and more importantly, anti-liberal) as Dick Cheney thinks she's better than Donald Trump, that OUGHT to give *anyone* pause. And I'm all for coexisting, but there's one side in this election determined to NOT coexist with the other side. And by that I mean the side that quotes Hitler, endorses racists, and has a convicted felon at the top of its ticket.

    THIS. This is exactly right. I don't see how anyone with ANY self-respect could reward someone for acting this shitty to people. He doesn't need an "attitude adjusting fuck" - that's what he wants, and then he'll start the cycle over again, abusing more people to get what he wants. What he NEEDS is to be ignored and to learn the lesson that being a shit gets you shit.

    I concur in the idea to not "reveal who they are" because it's nobody's business if someone famous has sex with someone non-famous. But if there's not going to be any identification, I'm not sure what the point is, especially since it's basically an unverifiable claim, and would just lead to the kind of one-upsmanship I see from the "Look at MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" crowd that delights in sharing "stories" (aka fiction disguised as true confessions) about how depraved and slutty they are. I mean, if it's that hot, write a fictional story about it, changing the names up, and post it in fiction. Just random claims of "I fucked an astronaut" or whatever seems kind of, well, pointless.

    I'm all for transcending partisanship, which is defined as adherence to a political party to the exclusion or at least detriment of any other factors. Being anti-Trump isn't partisan, except to the extent that Trumpism has completely captured the Republican Party, which has abandoned almost all of its long-held beliefs in order to back this one individual man. The Republican Party of Mitt Romney, or even both Bushes, would never have countenanced a moral scofflaw like Trump. They'd have excommunicated him for his fawning over authoritarian dictators like Putin, Orban, Erdogan, etc. They would have buried anyone who dismissed American servicemen and women killed in battle as "losers". I don't critique hair color. I do critique fake skin colors, like Trump's spray-tan that is so poorly applied it looks like a partial blackface mask. I call him Orange Julius, Mango Mussolini, and so forth not because of his hair (although to be honest, that combover is ridiculous), but because he's so intent on appearing "vigorous" that he puts a fake tan over his corpulent body and then gets a doctor to sign off on his claim to be 6'3 and 235 lbs when it's clear he's barely 6'1", if that, and closer to 280. Comparisons are inevitable, because it's a fucking election, and you have to compare the candidates to decide for whom to vote. If you don't grasp that basic principle, I hope you're not voting.

    A quick reminder: this is the Health forum, so while it's OK to factually describe that someone (as in this case) did not take appropriate precautions to prevent HIV infection, eroticizing, glorifying, admiring, or otherwise promoting that is "chasing" content that belongs in the Backroom.

    And it's unlikely to be approved as a first-line PrEP product; that is, it's more likely that even when it IS approved and available, you'd be required to take the tablet form until they documented that didn't work well for you given your swallowing issues. You might luck out and get the injection approved from the start, but planning on that is betting on a less-than-likely event.

    Cabenuva is *NOT* a PrEP medication. It's for TREATMENT of HIV once you get it. Please don't confuse the issue by conflating PrEP (which is prevention of HIV) with this drug (which is for TREATMENT of HIV). The injectable form of PrEP is called (by brand name) Apretude, which contains only ONE of the active ingredients in Cabenuva. In fact, as a general rule, PrEP (in any form) contains fewer ingredients than HIV treatment medications. The reason is that it's easier to prevent HIV than it is to treat it - once it's managed to burrow its way in, completely removing it is essentially* impossible, and it requires disrupting the replication of HIV in more than one way. Prevention just has to keep it from taking hold in your system. *I say "essentially" because there have been a handful of cases of eradicating HIV, by killing off a patient's entire immune system with chemotherapy and a stem cell transplant to replace it. But that's an expensive, debilitating process that runs the risk of killing the patient and may or may not always succeed.

    Bearing in mind that DoxyPEP is an off-label usage, the CDC *has* (this summer) issued a recommendation for clinical guidelines for use of doxycycline for DoxyPEP. Those guidelines call for taking 200 mg of Doxycycline within 72 hours of potential initial exposure, limited to 200 mg every 24 hours. I interpret that to mean that taking it daily, as long as it's AT LEAST 24 hours between doses - NOT doing one at 4 PM and then the next day at 9 AM - is within the clinical guidelines, if not within the specific recommendations of any particular physician. Bear in mind that some physicians may not grasp fully the notion of having unprotected sex with different guys every day for a week on vacation - that is, they may *know* it happens, but not realize *you* are one of the people doing it. Bear in mind also that when used to *treat* an STI, a lower does (100 mg) is often prescribed for twice a day dosing for ten days, and that's an on-label, approved dosage. So 200 mg a day over ten days isn't necessarily a bad thing.

    Either way, the logical thing to do is to get on PrEP so that your bareback desires don't put you in a space you don't want to be in - i.e. HIV-positive and having to disclose that to future sex partners. ESPECIALLY since you're expressing a desire to fuck women (not "girls", I hope) without a condom as well. I can't cite statistics, but I am willing to bet the percentage of women who get pissed about not having HIV disclosed to them before unprotected sex is several orders of magnitude larger than the same in the gay/bi male community, and you could be looking at a prison sentence or a hefty civil judgment or both, if it were discovered you became poz, knew it, didn't warn a partner, and ended up pozzing them. In addition, PrEP will likely save you any number of other health issues over the years, as a lifetime of HIV meds can take a big toll on your body.

    Private enterprises and judges, of course, have separate standards for behavior - and of course that's mostly because judges, being government employees/elected officials can only be disciplined by the government and that automatically implicates First Amendment issues. But yes, in general, in almost every state, private employers can take into account activities and statements by their employees, EVEN IF a statement or action was protected from *government* action by the First Amendment. In other words, if John Doe burns his American flag at a rally, the government can't legally arrest him or charge him with anything, but if his non-government employer BigCorp finds out, they're free to fire him for that. The same goes for appearing in porn.

    With respect only to your point about a discrimination lawsuit: From a federal law perspective: there's only an issue for them if they fired you for a reason protected by law, ie race, religion, national origin, sex, etc. There's no prohibition against firing someone for his activities outside of the workplace. And they don't have to be consistent about that. Some states might have a prohibition on employers taking action on this basis, but I'm not aware of any off the top of my head.

    And by the way: the best recap I have heard yet about the debate this week was that ordinarily, a man would have to pay handsomely to get beat down that hard by a woman.

    Nobody can tell you what you "should" do - and turning that kind of control over to random strangers on the internet is an inherently silly and misguided idea. Rather, you have the opportunity to THINK about the possible consequences of what you're considering, and how you plan to handle those consequences if they come to pass. You don't say whether you're married, in a relationship, or single, but if it's one of the first two, you should be thinking also about the potential consequences for that person, as well. This isn't to say going bare is bad - far from it. But it has implications for your health, and the health of any other sex partners you have. And I don't see anything in your post that suggests you've even considered what those might be.

    The one thing I would suggest for X/Twitter links: Please, please, PLEASE "drill down" to the specific post with the video you want to feature, and then use THAT URL; periodically someone posts a link on here to an entire X/Twitter timeline of postings, and the forum software dutifully includes post after post after post in an exceptionally long "single post" here.
