    nymidtowneast never disappoints!
  2. BergenGuy
    Yes, I did. That should have been "without". Thanks for catching that.

    The "more" is in the story "In sickness - A poz love story" that's referenced right above your post.

    Abortion is one area that the polls indicate that the Republicans are out of step with the electorate, except in the most very, very red places. Democrats would be foolish to cede ground on that issue.

    I'm hoping that when the Republicans try to pass actual legislation the Democrats will finally show some gumption. The Republican majority margin in the House is so thin that they will find it difficult to pass anything with some Democratic votes and the filibuster will help slow things down in the Senate, unless the Republicans foolishly abolish it. But, in the meantime, there's no reason for Democrats to be so silent. How about a media campaign that highlights that of all the things that Trump has done, he hasn't done a damn thing about food prices (yes, I know that is mostly out of his power, but he PROMISED!)? And, he promised to end the war in Ukraine in 24 hours. The campaign to retake the House and Senate in two years should've started yesterday.

    How will we know that there's a new AIDS pandemic (or a bird flu pandemic)? It is likely that the information will be withheld by the CDC. Just as I feel that unemployment, CPI and other economic information is likely to be withheld or manipulated. Inflation? What inflation?

    He is also associated with a group that is suing the FDA because a new version of the polio vaccine was not placebo tested! That's despite the fact that such a trial would be unethical and it is standard practice to trial against an existing vaccine when one exists. Kennedy isn't interested in safety. He's out to eliminate vaccines. Of course, at this point, the COVID vaccines have received far more testing than they ever would undergo in a conventional trial. So, he should just shut up instead of trying to deny everyone else lifesaving vaccines.

    I've always loved this story. I wish that it had been finished.

    A law isn't sufficient to allow a third term. It would require a Constitutional amendment and there's no way such an amendment would get enough a 2/3 vote in Congress and a 3/4 vote of the states. As the Constitution is written, a president doesn't have to "leave" the White House. His presidency ends at noon EST on January 20, 2029. It doesn't matter if a successor has been elected and certified. The term of office is over. Hopefully, by that time, a Democrat will be the speaker of the House.

    Since adult, consensual pornography is not inherently illegal, I think that there would be serious First Amendment issues in trying to ban its production. Porn is a form of expression.

    The story is hot, but it would be much easier to read if it had some paragraph breaks. A massive block of text is just daunting.
  12. BergenGuy
    Excellent point. I've also had to unfollow some prolific pic commenters even though I like reading what they have to say when they're responding to full-fledged posts on important issues. I'm curious whether other people think that there's any value in being allowed to comment on library images?
  13. BergenGuy
    Were those views merely contrasting opinions or were they presenting objectively false information? Although, either way, I don't agree with pressuring a media outlet over anything. I'm a First Amendment fanatic. However, there is nothing wrong with the government talking with media outlets about how they can help present factual information during, say, a health crisis like COVID. At least, that didn't use to be controversial, These days, there are probably people who object to anti-smoking public service announcements. But, all that has been reported and the Biden administration has ended those conversations. So, again, I'm wondering what "censorship" is Trump ending? Or, is that "censorship" yet another canard like his "war on Christmas"?
  14. BergenGuy
    No, I can't. That's why I was asking what "censorship" that Trump is supposed to ban.
  15. BergenGuy
    "Censorship" by whom? Censorship by the government is already illegal except in certain, very limited, circumstances.
  16. BergenGuy
    I'm sure that there will be some attempts. But, just because a senator, even a majority leader, wants something to happen doesn't mean that it will. I'm not being naïve. But, there are some things that congress people and senators who are facing re-election in two years will not want to face ... and one of them is a lot of very angry older people. What they'll do is more insidious. They just won't do anything. That's politically much easier. All they have to do is hope that Democrats are in power when it finally comes time to reduce Social Security/Medicare benefits due to insufficient funding.
  17. BergenGuy
    He did say that, and then was rapidly, very rapidly, forced to retract it (the typical "I was misunderstood"). Social Security is the third-rail of politics because older people vote at a very high rate. I suspect that there's a number of things that they'll do first before having the stomach to take on Social Security.

    Some guys do that because some apps are message-limited. Unfortunately, that's also the MO of catfishers. When a guy suggests that very early in the conversation, I just drop him. Otherwise, I know that he's going to be telling me all about cryptocurrency trading.
  19. BergenGuy
    Why? Because your "clarification" still reads as gay being a choice: Perhaps you mean to say that acting upon one's same-sex orientation is a choice. But, the orientation itself ("gay") is NOT a choice.
  20. BergenGuy
    Being gay is a choice??

    I think that it could be argued that if an athlete wants privacy, that individual can just turn off geolocation on their account. There is no reason to ban that feature for every athlete. That comes across as very paternalistic. Why should everyone lose that feature because some athletes come from LGBT-hostile cultures? Now, on the other hand, if Grindr has legitimate liability concerns (I'm not sure what those would be) then it should turn off the service. It is a business, after all. Personally, I won't interact with guys on Grindr who don't have their distance turned on (unless I can see them in my grid). There are just too many cat fishers out there. Even guys with distance turned on can be cat fishers, but in my experience it is a much smaller percentage than those who are hiding their distance.

    The "Respect for Marriage Act" would at least require that the Group C states recognize same-sex marriages performed in other states. Of course, if the Republicans hold the Senate, the House and the White House, they could simply repeal the law. I don't really expect the filibuster, which would be the only way to stop them, to survive if Republicans win across the board. They'll want to do as much damage in two years as possible knowing that, historically, they'll lose the House or Senate in two years.
  23. BergenGuy
    He left only after his attempt to interfere with the counting of the electoral votes failed. After that, it is irrelevant whether he "stayed" in the White House or not. His presidency ended at noon on January 20. At that point, he would just be a trespasser if he had physically remained in the White House.

    The clinic was in New Mexico.

    Paragraph breaks are always appreciated. Stories that are a single, dense block of text are very difficult to read.
