I think I could easily get behind Adam Kinzinger.

I am timing pretty closely with you rawTOP. I know the place I normally go to for vaccinations likes 4 weeks between shots of any sort. With the new updated covid vaccine out shortly, I am planning a conversation about timing. I would like the new covid shot as soon as available, even if I have to wait some time before #2 mpox. And of course soon the annual flu vaccine will be out. My intent it to see if they'll be open to 3 week timer.

Mine was my very first fuck in the late 70's. A neighbor in the next apartment complex and I met and hit it off. Time passed and eventually we got around to sex. He fucked me bare using hand lotion as lube. But that got me started. At a point one fellow used a condom which I hated. Never repeated that and have only barebacked either as a top or bottom since.

I've definitely given up on giving any credence to polling numbers. Here in Wisconsin there is a huge amount of attention being given to polling and hardly anything to what the candidates are actually saying. When I filter out the big money ads and just pay attention to direct candidate ads, there is an interesting contrast to Michels vs Evers. Evers has a long list of impressive accomplishments even though legislators were of the other party. Michels simply talks about destroying things; and what he wants to destroy are people who disagree with his Trump backed agenda. Pretty troubling. Overall, I suspect midterms on average won't change much at all. The R's of course are dominated by Trump which is troubling in so many ways. I rather hope that Kinzinger or Chaney make a run to oppose Trump in 2024. While IMO Trump has earned prison time, I think it unlikely that will happen. Democrats have some pretty far left agenda items which is almost as concerning as the right wing. In my best hopes; I would love to see is start ignoring both wingtips and move back to centrist which should get us back to meeting the needs of the 80% (ish). I would love to see Citizens United overturned. The ads have gotten old and the intensity and content now is absurd.

Those doggone facts... LOL Glad you got the first shot. Sorry that we're in this crazy time of exposures again. If it is your intention to avoid getting mpox, I would wait until at least two weeks after your second mpox vaccination.

The website stores are OK. But a local leather shop will make your harness to exactly fit your body. Costs are hard to predict, but from my POV a $200 harness that fits you like a glove vs an ill fitting $100 piece is worth it in the long run.

My hope as well @rawTOP. It's been interesting watching the progression of the inoculation. Really now just a flat red spot. Slight bump. I thought it might itch as my mate, who got his at the same time found his; which had a more pronounced bump, itched some.

My decisions are always directly with the guy I am with; not something arbitrary like his race.

Love the feel of a pierced cock in my hole. First time was with a buddy with a OO.

Sadly though, that seems to be emerging as the more common level of comprehension. Perhaps too many have spent too much time in "name that tune" in three notes that they ignore the symphony.

Sounds like it is time to have a frank conversation with him and find out for sure.

Why not just initiate an open dialogue. Be open to any outcome; he might want to continue as friends and if you're good with that, continue as you have been. Gaining clarity with friends should be a good thing so next time you have a good amount of time; maybe over lunch; bring up the question "what is our relationship?" and let the conversation unfold...

Our clinic received only 20 doses. Those were gone wihtin an hour.

I agree. Additionally once I added intrusion detection to my network all sorts of shit accompanies Discord.

Similar experiences here too. Generally the guys who are invested in BDE are on balance crappy sex mates. They only think as far as their dick and leave out so much. On the other hand, I have had lovers with big dicks and not BDE who were astoundingly great in bed.

I have never understood why skin color was a thing....

I did have a nice conversation with the individual in our County Health department about where I might get vaccinated here in Wisconsin. As of a couple days ago there were only 4 total cases in the state. They believe they will get vaccine early in 2023. Is there a website you are aware of that gives Monkeypox vaccination options in Canada? (I have friends there an am asking them the same question.)

Last time i broke out in hives was when I discovered an allergy to a laundry product I had switched to a couple months before. The one with the European looking woman (costume) is sniffing dirty clothes and dancing. I concluded they took that video when she broke out in hives... 🙂 Go to Urgent Care confident that whatever they find they will help you handle it. No point fretting too much stuff that "IS".

Thank you!!! Entertaining to read as well. Nicely done article. Week over week my fondness for my brothers to the north increases.

Man I certainly have to agree that both parties are broken. We seem to be living on the wingtips in recent years. Frankly I am getting quite weary of extremists. Certainly social growth within societies on earth would benefit mankind. So few step back and assess viable options for steps to move is back to center when they are voting. Bald faced lies have become ubiquitous. Which is frustrating because when broadcast media is "in the room" all I can do is talk back to the screen - useless as they can't hear me. But useful because I think it is important to utter out loud my objection rather than hold it in. (( or perhaps I'm becoming a raving lunatic )) To the point of not voting for candidates of either party; that is certainly a vote of frustration. Our social voter behavior to show up for their one favorite social issue doesn't get us to a path towards centrist. There are individuals on the congressional investigation committee who I think might make fine candidates in 2024. IMO this should not be an "I win, you lose" situation. That position polarizes us. I would love our society to get their head away from party wonks and listen to individual candidates so that we can start getting legislation done which benefits the majority of us. Democracy is not going to make everyone happy; but it should make most of us OK enough. Abortion. It is unfortunate that women find their way to unintended pregnancy's. And some pregnancies become hazards to the host organism. (eg: mother to be). Don't all of us want the right to make decisions about what goes on with and to our own bodies? Whether I think it is morally wrong or not; if it isn't my body then it is none of my business. Doing uninvited things to another body is equally wrong. I think a substantial majority of us would agree with this. Some of us won't. Finally @TotalTop I'm not a victim either. And I don't "read" that into posts of yours I've read.

It does seem to be a rare thing.

I experienced the same thing FWIW.

I have enjoyed reading this conversation after a few days away from BZ. First, I love this sort of conversation, smack dab in the middle of a sexual place. Appropriate to me as sex is a big part of my self identity; especially as a retired person (sort of). I work for fun now and have more time to make sexual pleasure a priority. What is troubling me about our political dialogue is that it is entrenched, it seems, in religious dogma. I am an atheist which informs a good part of my view on our whole global social dilemma. I realize and accept that some of my friends believe differently. We don't however tell each other to live their life based on our differing beliefs. There is stuff that some people choose to believe, And by all means, believe anything you want. Some belief's are based on individuals who may have lived thousands of years ago. We know this stuff only from stories. We might see artifacts of that time in our history. However, we are skilled as a species at embellishing, minimizing, editing our stories. There are other beliefs which are based on measurable, observable. Many of us can see two things and spot the differences (very much like the newspaper "spot the differences" cartoons from my youth). Most of us, I hope, read with a certain amount of horror of the Salem Witch trials which were, in human history, not very long ago; or some of the brutal treatment of homosexuals attempting to torture them into finding opposite sex more attractive. Why do we seem as a society to tell others who they should be or what they should do? {aside; to that end it is wise to slow down sexual commitments made by youths. Our formative years are just that; our natural intellects discovering the world around us and forming our relationship to the world around us. I would use caution on medical interventions. Jim sexually at 5 vs 10 vs 15 vs 25 varied quite a bit and I am thankful there was not a whole lot of pushing me to conform to any specific agenda; nor to make mistakes and learn. } For me WRT abortion is that we have our eye on the wrong thing. Each of us is an individual and regarding what happens to our body should be entirely ours to choose. If what is in our body is a potential human, they are entirely dependent upon their host organism. It does not have a voice as it is not yet born. I think we have gone too far in this fretting over who has not been born and yet seem apathetic to post partum abortions. It is clear that other social gains in my lifetime are also at risk. "Wokeness" and fretting "name calling" is not helping us. Life has its challenges and somehow I got to this point in life being called all the shit people now get nuts about. Did I like it? Hell no. But they were words. It was up to me to decide whether I needed to give a crap. We seem to care way too little about what people do compared to what they say... We, collectively, sexual enthusiasts, are at a point on deciding what we are actually going to do. Who we vote for is going to determine our future I think. I am a poll worker. I am locally elected. Perhaps it is time to rip the band aid off the seemingly prohibited Thanksgiving political and social dialogue. I grew up on that, am so thankful I did. Loving this thread guys; Thank you.

🙂 Hmmm, piss can be fun too...
