Yes he is.  More havoc to come.  We're early in this train ride.  

If the rest of us can cooperate with each other so that we act with a common purpose we can make a 180 in 2026.  We've not done too well in recent years in finding one purpose.

i live in a melting pot .. love dick .. every color dick .. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I've enjoyed men from all over the globe.  It matters much more to me who the man is attached to the dick, than the dick itself.  I've enjoyed exquisite pleasure from modest dicks and huge dicks.  And I've experienced crappy sex from modest dicks and big dicks.  Skin color was never a factor in our interest with each other.

Thanks for this pozbear!  I will follow up on your advice!  We will all die of something I know, but I’d try to put the inevitable off for as long as possible 😀😀! 

Most definitely, the longest most satisfying life we can.  My initial meeting with my new HIV doc last summer had me articulating my medical objective.  I favor a good life over a long life.  There are some already known deficits.  If the reason for treatment is "long life" but of course we'll be speeding up liver/kidney failure while we do that; well, let's not do that...  🙂

Did you intend an "out" after the "with"?  

 

That's an interesting thought.  I wonder, however, if any real Dem would attempt to get elected via "seconding" the red wave.  The election cycle will start again in about a year, if not less, and the Dems will be hammering for at least a full year before the midterms; some already are.  By that time however, there will be an appreciable number of votes up for grabs, as the R's who feel betrayed by T re-think their vote in this past round.  T's recent actions appear almost child-like to most paying attention, and as the detritus of his flailing about results in the chickens coming reeeeeeal close to home to roost, there will be many prospective Dem voters to "bring home".  

In short, Trumpism will be defeated by it's own followers reactionary blowback.  

I hope that @hntnhole.  It does seem like a likely scenario.  And the P2025 group knows that time is short to get it set as much as they can.  February should see a shitstorm of lawsuits.

@TaKinGDeePanal Would not surprise me.

I find myself a bit envious of having saunas relatively close...

It might, of course.  But it might not.  You can gather more information..  

At this stage you can do a genetic test and find out if you have the CCR5delta32 mutation.  If so, your risk of infection is lower.  And if infected, it is likely it would progress slowly, allowing you to defer the time you start meds.  If it comes down to full immune system collapse or kidney collapse, which will you choose?  That's up to you...  

But first, understand you, me, everyone else is going to die of something.

I agree all the way. We all have a likes and dislikes. Key is don't be a bitch about it.

If you don't like anything or anyone else for that matter that is not in your same area of interest, just say no.

Had a dude go ape shit crazy at the bath house last night all because I asked to suck his dick.

Threatened to beat me up and kill me at the bath house in the maze. 

I laughed it off but damn dude...

How did you handle that threat?  I would find it difficult to laugh it off, having been threatened before I vowed never again with no definitive action to the threatener

Well, it obviously does for you @topblkmale.  As long as we make it an issue, racism will continue.  

@Leatherman667 it is ok to take the risks you're taking.  You might poz up, but it is more likely you won't.  And if you do poz, you won't be required to take meds (thankfully).  

Serosorting is not a bad way to go.  Imprecise?  Yes but largely successful.  That tends to eliminate bookstore, sauna, bathhouse raw anal sex.  But it isn't a horrible thing to get to know your sexmates.

If you need to ask total strangers what to do involving a life altering decision, the obvious answer is, “NO!”

 

That decision must come from deep within yourself.

 

Good luck.

Exactly

What will Trump do when there is a new aids pandemic to the lack of information?

He will do what Reagan did.  Maybe not exactly, that way, he'll put an absolute doofus in charge who will get nothing done.

we're going back to third way clinton politics re: DOMA and DADT on lgbt rights, much like how labour went back to blairite policies. the democrats just don't have any teeth to go on the offensive. we lgbt folks are on our own, even with feckless lobbyist organizations like HRC purporting to defending our rights. we need to abandon social media channels and organize like the days of old.

I was a bit worried we would get here.  OK, so it seems like we need to birth an organization here; or find one recently started to participate in.

I received the same email a few months back. I simply deleted it and moved on with my life. 

Indeed, it helps to know what to look for as they seem to come in these clusters; a whole bunch in a day or two and then quiet as long as I ignored them.

Past a certain age, I think role play is a chore. Certainly if you with someone you don’t know because we gay men don’t have to liven up sex with the same person in the 29th year of knowing them.  And now that I am older, it doesn’t mean I’m the dominant one out to corrupt you, yawn.  Anyone in the early twink age range knows more about social drug play than I do. You’re allowed to get old because you have been careful in your random contacts, not because you’ve been reckless.  Make a not of this, the absolute last thing I want to hear is anyone calling me daddy.  I’m not your father, I’m not your grandfather, I am glad that you’re interested but since we are strangers, can’t we just focus on discovering who we each are and not go for squeezing into some porn novel characters.

Oh fuck yes....  Being called "daddy" to distraction is what makes us into curmudgeons!  

To the degree we've been able to be mutually present; not somewhere in our fantasy head, but live and in person, candid, authentic.  Those have been attributes around the times of greatest pleasure for me.

It is a puzzler.  Then too, I always wondered how a group of people would willingly drink poison in a cult.  I suspect MAGA know they're in peril, and it is the worship of their guy that has them continue to support over their own peril.  

FWIW, I believe we'll get through this, likely somewhat worse for the wear but hopefully with lessons echoing those we had to learn in WW2.  Us humans seem to have this historical penchant to have us relearn our lessons on how to keep a civil society going.  

Man @Tanbbottom I am loving this story.  I've missed stories where we don't worry that we're poz (or if).  What a delight to have read this.  It reads like a complete story as it is.  But an Epilogue might be fun.

Thanks for that good advice! Because of my low kidney function I’ve had to stop prep. So it’s down to mainly oral now, and of course p- - s fun. 

And you can serosort.  Not casually of course.  Would doxyPEP be an issue @Leatherman667?

We need another party pushing back.  Where did all the Dem leaders go?  crickets.

@rawfuckingonly you've never met me.  You have no idea who I am, what I do.  And yet you confidently declare I don't have a moral compass?  The adage "pot calling the kettle black" applies to you.  

To be more accurate what that email is @RawNYTop is a phishing attempt.  Delete it, do nothing and you'll be fine.  

Phishing attempts seem to be on the rise.  If one opens the attachments, they are a risk, perhaps significant risk, so I strongly advice you never, ever click on a link from someone you know.  And be aware you'll want to be certain it's that person.  There is also an uptick in emails from "friends", but when you look at the detail of what the email address actually used it, it isn't yours (or mine as the case may be).  

Now, WRT your home network.  You might do well to consider Intrusion Detection if you're ISP doesn't already provide that as a service.  And a VPN these days is just a better practice.  And if you haven't, invest in a high quality home security suite that can recognize attributes of malware if not the specific malware itself, and simply block that.  

I don't follow where the race of the guy I'm with matters...  

FWIW, non religious here.
