Interesting viewpoint. I'm definitely not gonna play chess - political or otherwise - with ya !!! You'd wipe the board with me ... 🫡 To the other thing; is is possible for a candidate for President to run without a Veep candidate? So, I looked it up: Quora says ... "Let's split this up. Yes, someone can declare themselves a candidate for President of the USA without picking a partner for Vice President. No, no major party would support a candidate which didn't allow them to pick a running mate. So the odds of getting elected would be bad. Just another of the many write in candidates who get no mention in the news or history books. 2nd no, the Vice President is elected separately on the same election as the President. So if the impossible happened and a no-party candidate got elected president without a Vice president partner, the electoral college would still pick the Vice President. Again, because no party would choose such a foolish option, the process of assigning electors separately for president and vice president would br complicated. Our normal ballots don't have an option to vote for Vice president separately from the president, yet this situation would allow it, and states might require it. So if the electoral college has the votes to pick a winner for Vice President, then that person will be Vice president. If they do not, then the Senate would do the job, electing the Vice president from among the candidates with the most electoral votes. Either of these has a great chance to get a Vice president of a different party from the President. That's how the original electoral system worked, and it worked so badly that the constitution was amended to link the two offices into one joint election. There is one exception, which has never happened yet. If the Vice presidential candidate running mate were to die between election day and the election certification, the electoral college system would be challenging. They would have votes to cast for a deceased candidate, which would be cast for someone else. The new president-elect may make recommendations, but the constitution doesn't have any provisions to support that as a mandate. The party leadership would probably try to pick out whoever they want, and it could get complicated - or even fail and put it back to the Senate to elect. Once the newly elected president is in office, then they may nominate replacement for a vacancy for Vice President. But they can't prevent congress from electing a Vice President without their consent before taking office." 3K views View upvotes 1 of 25 answers Upvote 6

I'd guess that pre-empting problems is the root of the issue for Grindr. Given that intense competition is the whole purpose of the events, it's not impossible that the website could somehow be used against an athlete by another, less successful competitor. I reckon that horny athletes have always been able to find each other at the Olympics - without an app.

Some say he had to build a whole 'nother house in his back yard just to house all those skeletons. Yes, Jen (oh ... Psaki) has let that one slip through her lips any number of times, and she always has a special gleam in her eye every time she does. But in addition, no one knows what he actually believes - if anything. He's taken more positions on issues than anyone else I can think of, which makes whatever cums out of his mouth completely unreliable. I'm surprised any of the major media bothers to interview him anymore. George Pataki is a former Governor of NY .....

For some, it's going to a certain church every morning .... for others, it's going for a long run in the morning. Still others may read the newspapers, or any number of things. Some even use drugs as a morning eye-opener. These are behaviors - habits - daily routines that help regulate our daily lives, when structure of some sort seems to be important to an individual. What the act happens to be is ancillary - it's a result of needing that kind of behavior fulfilled that's important. It sounds as if you're investing no small amount of time thinking all of this over. If that's the case, well done. If taking loads is part of your daily "structure", then do that. It's not reasonable to expect it be the same Cock every time (and you probably wouldn't find that as exciting either). Perhaps (with some time) you can build a small network of guys that need raw sex as much as you do, and help assuage your cravings, (maybe not first thing every single morning), but a dozen or more guys who feel similar, urgent needs could help. Sating a craving, in and of itself, isn't destructive, as long as the act isn't destructive in and of itself. Most guys use the fuckapps these days, and once a handful of guys with similar needs read your posts, respond favorably, merely word-of-mouth (more likely texts, I suppose) could build a reservoir of hard raw Cocks that need to be drained as much as you need to drain them. Presumably, word of (well, texts) would help increase the numbers. Assuming it's taking the loads that's so crucial, it wouldn't matter all that much if it were sometimes the same Cocks that fuck you, would it? As long as some Cock fucked/loaded your Hole. I know, of course, that fresh Cock would be the most fulfilling, but logistics might preclude that. If your work is a M - F type, then the weekends would be yours to steep in your Lusts. I'm assuming by 'forever' you mean a life-long part of your existence ... to which I would answer that you're in control of what you do. For some of us, it's easier, for some less so. But the fact remains that only you control your "forever". I have many years of very regular sex under my belt (exception being the advent of hiv - when no one was fucking any one other than their partner raw, and using a condom every time they had "barnyard" sex). I have a very regular schedule of when I exercise my lusts, and for me it's twice a week. Yes, there are times occasionally when I give myself a little "special treat", but then I'm inclined to exert of control my life in the first place. And yes, it has been totally "worth it". To reprise, only you are in control of your life, and however you choose to structure your life, that decision only has to please you. You already know that cumdumpery is a behavior that's very important to you. You also need other things in your life - a place to live, food, all the boring requirements - but the rest is up to you. And know that at any time, if you choose to, it's within your power to alter the course of your life. Kudos for getting on PrEP, since that will preserve your chances of living a long, satisfying life. Best of luck as you search your mind, figuring out what you really need, what you crave, and coming to the right decision - for you.

That might prove slightly better than Vance, I suppose. Graham, however, has been widely seen (including re-runs in the major media quite often) to be on all sides at any given time or situation. He's widely thought to be insincere no matter what particular issue he's going on about. Not as bad as Vance, but hardly much better. And, there's that "Lady Graham" thing that surfaces fairly often too. If T dumps V, he can surely do better with one of the other senators, representatives, almost anyone.

Well, who is ??? If I believed in supernatural beings, I suppose the supposed resident-in-chief of Hell would qualify ....

The way I read your original post, you've already done everything I can image to maintain the friendship without the drugs. The only choice I see is between your sobriety and Alain, and only you can make that decision. It's not you that's making demands on him, he's the one trying to "guilt" you into resuming what you already know is a destructive practice. It's sad all the way around, and only you can make the decision. I'm sending you every vibe I can come up with that you make the decision that's right for you.

And what does the corpulent, thiiiiis close to 80, orange-utang wind up with ??? CAT LADIES !!! Of note; reportedly, the-sponsor-in-chief, who plucked Vance out of the bottom of the pile, gave him millions to get elected to the Senate, on and on, turns out to be one of us. Maybe not the particular subset we BZ'ers belong to, but the greater "we". Paid for his Senate campaign, paid for all kinds of things on behalf of Vance. Can't help but wonder why ........

Agreed. When he was running for Pres, he came to Ft. L. to some old dumpy joint (seemed to be an old disco, maybe?), and the place was jammed. I also like Walz - he's articulate, blunt, and smiley. I guess we'll just have to wait and see ....

Well, the "shipping container" housing project next door to Ramrod has just thrown down the gauntlet. Previously, one could walk out of RR, down to the corner, turn E and walk in front of the used furniture store, turn at the store's parking place and get behind that building. Guys fucked back there all night long. However, driving past the other day I noticed some fencing on the back of a truck parked where guys would turn in to go behind the furniture store. Sure enough, they closed off access with an 8' gate. Maybe this will encourage RR to let Pig Alley be resurrected. We'll see ...

I doubt she will - the connection to decades of Dem ownership of Chicago & some of the burbs - and thus the State - would almost be a "cat-ladies" opportunity for the R's. Frankly, I was surprised he's even in the running. There's plenty of "buried treasure" for the R' to hang around his neck back in Chgo ....

I do believe that we're "born" to one inclination or the other (gay vs straight), but I wonder if the 'inborn" bent is so discriminating. I think that preference is developed as we mature, find our bearings, and then figure out we're more inclined to either T or b, or completely versatile. In Jr. High the swimming class (compulsory) was held in-the-flesh - no suits. I do remember envying some guys that were more 'mature' than I was, but I learned a little later than it's more the genetics than anything else. I did manage to "catch up' by high school, though. I distinctly remember a girl in history class that sat in a nearby desk, who said "I dig your hairy legs !!!" Then she laughed and said "you're blushing". I don't quite remember when virtually all of that leg-hair disappeared though ☹️

Well, in the fuckjoints I frequent, the bottoms are usually "in place" somewhere - in the darkroom, in one of the smaller "darkrooms (more like walk-in closets in the main room at Slammer), or in the orgy room, lined up on a large round ottoman-like thing, except it's maybe 6,7, feet across. The orgy room though, is usually jammed with guys cruising around. They're everywhere over there ... taking Cock after Cock after Cock, where any Top in the area can see, watch, get in line if he wants to. A handful of them are (apparently) shy about being watched, and want to go to one of the many booths, but most bottoms know that showing off their hunger only attracts more loads. Sort of like the "iron filings to a magnet" example.

Apologies, everyone .... I have no idea how it happened, but somehow a reply showed up twice 🫢

Actually, I just checked mine - haven't looked at it for a long time. There's not much there that isn't as true today as when I first joined up, but one of these days I may adjust one part a little bit ..... maybe something more of us should pay attention to once in a while.

That's absolutely valid in an "advertising" sense. Creating an ad for a product always emphasis certain qualities and diminishes others (if they're mentioned at all). That's the nature of advertising. I wonder how many advertisers who wanted to run less-than ads through the years, and they received some helpful suggestions before we even got to the ad schedule. The point would be, if you want the secondary "advertising" (that being word-of-mouth), the initial ad has to be not only appealing, but also contain some measure of the truth. Absolutely true - even if for nothing more than to avoid a spanking. I suppose it's later on that the potential spanking develops into more non-corporal events. Maybe that's when we "learn" to be misleading, avoid the less attractive, and emphasize the more so. That seems to be the unfortunate result of trying to please everyone, which is impossible. Far better to offer the most truthful, honest presentation we can, and cross our bal...er .... fingers, and hope for the best. One facet of the online stuff though, is we don't have the opportunity to assess the other guy in person before trying to make the hook-up. Do they look you in the eye when conversing - do they hang their head - all kinds of body language. There's no way to access that kind of thing over the ether. That, young man, is 100% completely true !!! The problems you've overcome through the years, and triumphed despite those negative issues, is truly impressive.

In the context of the fuckapps though, why would a guy advertise something he has no urge or intention to actually offer for use? I never posted a pic of my ass, just my Cock/balls - since that's all I was offering. Whether I have a "nice" ass or not is irrelevant. If I were a bottom, the pics would be reversed - ass only, no c/b photos. The only context I can think of for advertising both front and back would be if the advertiser is versatile; happy with either position. But then, all the phony bs associated with the apps is why I just stopped bothering with them a few years go. As to the validation mentioned above, what good is validation from a bunch of guys out there in the ether, that one will probably never meet in the first place? I don't get it.

Interestingly, there are reports in the major media that it wasn't actually a bullet that creased OJ's ear - but a piece of shrapnel, maybe a shard of glass from a teleprompter. From the video we've all seen (ad nauseum) though, I wonder how a small shard of glass could get to his ear, given the placement of his punkin head at the moment. The Secret Service is really tight-lipped about the whole event; maybe with good reason. Or, maybe just protocol. In any case, sounds like a thorough house-cleaning is in the works at the S.S.

I agree. Changing one's mind when one's Hole is full of hard raw Cock about to pump a load up the gut is waaaaay out of line. It's nothing less than utterly selfish. Demonstrating a need for raw Cock up the gut, and then changing one's mind as the Top is sating the needs of the bottom is nothing less than 100% inconsiderate and completely selfish. Fortunately, around here there is precious little of that kind of self-absorbed behavior, and in the fuckjoints it's hardly likely that mine will be the first of the night for any bottom.

When a medical doctor, presumably educated in his/her craft, cannot refrain from offering medical advice in a judgmental manner, they have essentially abandoned their training in favor of their personal feelings/attitudes/judgmentalism. I ran into that once, and the appointment was over before it really began, since I stood up, walked out, and that was it. There are plenty of fine, talented, generous-of-heart medical people around, and there's no reason at all to accept judgmental behavior from some haughty asshole who looks down his/her long, thin nose at our behavior or practices or life-choices.

My apologies if that sounded cynical. It wasn't meant to be cynical at all; merely realistic. Staff planning for Presidential election cycles are always, constantly active. They become far more prominent/intensive as an election nears, of course, but both parties are always "in progress" in some way. In that sense, obviously the election in Nov must be upper most in the staff's minds, and the majority of the effort dedicated to the upcoming cycle, but there are also others playing the 'long game' too. Consider how long this Project 25 outfit has been planning the end of Democracy, for instance. By all accounts, it's been in the works (quietly, of course) since OJ was first elected. In that it appears ending elections is part of P-25's objectives, so if T actually does win in November, there may very well not be a 2028 election, or if there is, it would be as heavily "rigged" as he bellowed about last cycle. No one can say we don't live in interesting times.

Well, you may be right - I thought it was on the roof, but then I never paid all that much attention to her either. Thanks for the correction, PozBearWI.

<sigh> Occasionally, it's just not worth the effort ....
