The previous one was paywalled.

I'm surprised since Staten Island helped elect Trump, who doesn't seem to believe in masks. Guess they couldn't pass up the opportunity to show how much better they are than her. This made me remember when Alec Baldwin called his young daughter a little pig.

Too much gingerbread?

I'm the convenient reminder that "you should not take Pallotex if you're allergic to Pallotex."

Trump just tweeted he will move the Republican Convention out of North Carolina unless Governor Roy Cooper gives assurance the convention can operate at full capacity.

Trump said, "Unfortunately, Democratic Governor @RoyCooperNC is still in Shutdown mood (sic) & unable to guarantee that by August we will be allowed full attendance in the Arena." Trump went on to threaten a switch if the Governor doesn't cave ... "... we will be reluctantly forced to find, with all of the jobs and economic development it brings, another Republican Convention site. This is not something I want to do."

Doctors and scientists have implored people to maintain social distancing in public ... that's why there will be no fans at sporting events in the foreseeable future. What's more, just a few people who have the virus can infect hundreds, and those hundreds can infect thousands and so on. It's been happening at churches, choirs, nursing homes, etc.

Vice President Pence called Trump's threat "very reasonable," adding the likely contenders for a substitute state are Texas, Florida and Georgia.

What the hell genre of music was this?

I had just posted in another thread a few days ago about how my job wasn't guaranteed but that it had funding into 2021. So today's virtual meeting with HR was a bit of a stunner. I know I shouldn't be with the times we are living in, but again, I had worked on projects with funding into next year, my manager talking about all the work we needed to do and even possibly hiring an intern to help out.

My first question to HR person after her spiel was if my manager knew. And she confirmed he did. I get on a call with him and he swore he had no idea. Fucking snake. HR said this had been in discussion since February and wasn't even related to Covid. So for three fucking months my manager has been talking about new work, etc and I had been working on contracts to set us up for this and next year and he knew I was on the chopping block.

I know he's lying because after 8 years I know when he's really upset. And today, he sounded like a weasel instead. He's been angry (directed towards me) when he feels someone has circumvented his manager role so the fact that he was squirming when I told him I knew he knew...He would be genuinely angry and agitated if HR took out the only person on his fucking team! Then he rationalized by saying oh why would I agree to lose you, now I'm swamped and this puts me in a bad light. Yes, you fucking bastard, it's all about you!

Fuck my life. I don't even like the job but where the fuck am I going to find another 100K+ job in this economy?

I'm taking the rest of the week off.

I'm the overweight closeted cashier, who when you bring up your purchase to him, peers over his half-glasses and smirks, "Have you found a treasure?"

More, more!

Since that seems to be the way DL is going, I say let's welcome the change! Copious use of "y'all" and "LMAO" are optional, but will likely happen anyway! Don't worry that anyone will suspect you use overdone memes in lieu of developing a unique personality, I say let the herd mentality roam free! Moo!

He's been said to be feeling 'lost' in his new Stateside home, far from friends, family and his previous life, but Prince Harry has reportedly found a 'father figure' in California.

According to the Duchess of Sussex's close friend, Katharine McPhee, Harry has become close to her husband, David Foster.

'My husband has a really, really beautiful relationship with Harry,' McPhee she told the TV show Access Hollywood. 'They're like, they're so cute. They're like father and son. We just stay in touch with them. But mostly, Meghan and I knew each other from childhood, but really Harry and my husband are friends, so it's really nice.'

The Court Circular is your inside track on the latest happenings in the Royal Family, covering the biggest stories shaping the monarchy right now.

Foster of course was the man who helped arrange Harry and Meghan's Vancouver Island accommodation, after connecting them to the mysterious owner of the sprawling home where they spent Christmas, the New Year and the earlier part of this year.

McPhee also credits him with helping the royal couple find their Pacific Palisades home, saying: 'David is the resource guy. He knows all the places. He loves to help people. We just want them to end up wherever they feel safest and happiest.'

An LA power player on the music scene, Foster works as a record producer and music executive, with artists such as Christina Aguilera, Mary J Blige and Michael Bublé all produced by him. Yet he is also well-known for his five marriages - often to other well-connected Hollywood types.

From 1991 to 2005 he was married to Linda Thompson, a former model and the ex-wife of Caitlyn Jenner (then Bruce), with Foster acting as step-father to her two sons, Brody and Brandon Jenner (the half-brothers of Kendall and Kylie Jenner). He was next married to Yolanda Hadid from 2011-2017, another former model, and the mother of Gigi, Bella and Anwar Hadid, before marrying McPhee in 2018.

He had one child aged 20, Allison, who he gave up for adoption and reconnected with when she was an adult, plus three daughters with his second wife, Rebecca Dyer, named Sara, Erin and Jordan. His daughter Sara is married to former tennis star Tommy Haas.

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar told a British newspaper that she believes Tara Reade, the former Senate staffer who’s accused Joe Biden of sexual assault.

The congresswoman told The Times of London in an article that was published Sunday that she believes Reade, saying: “Justice can be delayed, but should never be denied.”

Reade has accused the former vice president and presumptive presidential nominee of pinning her against a wall in 1993 and sexually assaulting her.

In the Times article, Omar tells the reporter that if it were up to her, Biden wouldn’t be the Democrats’ nominee for the November election. During the primaries, Omar was a vocal supporter of Bernie Sanders.

On Monday, in response to criticism on Twitter, the congresswoman tweeted that “believing survivors” is consistent with her values. She also said that the Times interview was conducted on May 6 and that the “quotes aren’t always in context.”

While Omar did not explain the context for the quotes in her tweets, she did say that she’ll vote for Biden in order to get Trump out of the White House.

He addressed the allegations in an interview with MSNBC earlier this month, saying that anyone who believes Reade 'probably shouldn't vote for me'.

'I wouldn't vote for me if I believed Tara Reade,' he added.

Posting your home address (often in groups specifically for single mothers) for 1000s of strangers to see, and leaving food and wine outside the homes of total strangers. What could possibly go wrong?

Could Teen Wolf finally be hitting our screens again in the near future?

Tyler Posey, who played Scott McCall on the MTV series, has teased a possible reboot of the show, and we are so on board with this.

It's been three years since we said goodbye to Scott, Stiles, Lydia and co in the very open-ended finale and now Tyler reckons it's about time for a reboot.

He wrote on Twitter: "Hey @MTV I think it's time to bring teen wolf back for new episodes. First Jersey shore family vacation. Now Teen Wolf high school reunion. I'm ready. And 28, so it's an appropriate age."

Sounds good, eh? Well even better, some of the original cast are up for joining him too.

Colton Haynes, who played werewolf wannabe Jackson Whittemore, tweeted "I'm in!" and Cody Christian, who played one of Scott's enemies (turned frenemy), Theo Raeken, added: "I'm. So. Down".

Khylin Rhambo, who played Mason, added: "I agree with all these things. Count me tf in."

Orney Adams, who played the lacrosse coach, took things a little further with his unique humour: "Wait a minute. What the hell have I been shooting for the past six months @MTV? Was this not an official reboot? I was wondering why in all my scenes I was naked on a lacrosse field. Alone."

Well, we're absolutely ready for a reunion to find out what happened to the pack. Have Stiles and Lydia got married and had babies yet? Is Derek still a grumpy wolfy?

While the final season was still filming, series creator, Jeff Davis, was already planning a reboot, but it never materialised at the time, so maybe now's the right time.

Come on, MTV!

They then charged him with ‘soliciting sodomy’ and publicly outed him!

A police department has publicly outed a gay robbery victim who had told his friends and family he was kidnapped in order to cover up a meeting with a male sex worker.

Christopher Keys, of Macon, Georgia, had called the police on May 19 after being robbed while waiting in a motel room for a sex worker he had arranged to meet on Craigslist.

According to the report Keys filed with police, two masked men had knocked on the door and held him at gunpoint, before robbing him of his wallet, house, truck and work keys, and a cell phone.

Rather than help Keys, Bibb County Sheriff’s Office opted to arrest him and charge him with “solicitation of sodomy” – which remains a specific crime in Georgia, 17 years after the US Supreme Court struck down sodomy laws banning gay sex.

The police also posted a Facebook message detailing the incident in full in order to contradict circulating “rumours” – after the victim told friends an edited version of the story in which he was kidnapped from outside a CVS pharmacy and driven to the motel.

The Facebook post from the sheriff’s office said: “Keys stated to deputies that he had responded to an ad on Craigslist. He was to meet a man at the motel in room #111. An investigation revealed that Keys had been a frequent visitor to the Regency Inn & Suites since January.

“Keys told deputies at the time of the initial report that he did not want this to get out and that he did not want deputies to talk with his relatives. Keys said that he was going to tell his father that he was kidnapped from another location and brought to the motel.

“Based on information discovered in the course of the investigation, Keys has been arrested and charged with solicitation of sodomy. The Sheriff’s Office continues to investigate the personal robbery reported by Keys.”

Keys, 56, had been employed as a Bible studies teacher at a local religious school, Tattnall Square Academy, according to the Macon Telegraph.

He appears to have now been removed from a staff directory on the school website, however.

The school told the newspaper: “Tattnall Square Academy was only recently made aware of the charges against our former employee, Christopher Keys. We have no comment or information regarding the matter about which he is accused.”

Adam is back! The boat is gorgeous. So are the men.

what could be the cause?

low testosterone?

thyroid?

crappy diet?

Lack of exercise?

age?

solutions?

What would you do if you saw this at your local store?

sorry for those losing jobs but I hate Uber. Typical arrogant tech company doesn't give a damn about its customers or its drivers.

Absolutely zero customer support and it's nearly impossible to contact them anyways

They never made a dime of profit even in their best days. So many of these tech companies are unprofitable and act like there were never consequences....poor management kills.

We are all told to keep emergency funds too bad Uber never did.

Plus they put that whiny gold digger Ariana Huffington on the board of directors. Because she has so much experience in the ride sharing industry. Not!

Good riddance!

His friend Kid Harpoon went on record and told Rolling Stone that he'd advised Harry to 'date women or men or whatever, get your heart broken, and write about it'. He has a song called Medicine in which he sings: 'the boys and the girls are in/I mess around with them'. One of his music videos features a man grinding on him.

Is he lgbt or just playing it up for his largely lesbian fanbase?

I need a 65 inch smart TV. There are so many choices it’s mind-boggling! I am partial to LG but open to other brands. I haven’t looked at TVs in a while and there’s always new technology. I think the newest thing is called nanocell? Anyone have experience with that? Any advice, recommendations would be great thank you.

Can any DL figure skating experts/aficionados weigh in? I have seen her described as having been the best figure skater in the world for a moment in time, but I am not remotely knowledgable enough about figure skating technique and athleticism to compare her to anyone else. Was this assessment based purely on her ability to complete the triple axel, other elements of her skating, or a combination of both? I actually saw Tonya skate live when I was very young. I was 4 years old when the Nancy Kerrigan incident occurred, and my parents took me to one of Tonya's practice sessions at the Clackamas Town Center Mall in Portland, which was near our house. The rink, which is no longer there, was surrounded by a food court, and I remember there being a large crowd spectating.

I mean, really, it just seems like there are people who come on here that are not here for fun but for competition, blood, vengeance. Is that you? Are you a SJW? Do you need to defend any type of "felt" social infraction on the Datalounge? Please share why.

Are these still popular with today's youth?

to go along with the Cher thread.

This is riveting TV. boos, anger, strange spacey eyes (and an odd John Travolta presentation of course)

Oh, Kathleen.

This time she suggested Trump should take a "Syringe with nothing but air inside it."

The "grab your musket," "maybe the second amendment people can deal with her," car-mowing-into-Charlottesville-crowd party has something to say on her civility.

I'm thrilled

Donna looks the best... Joan looks.... uh.....

It’s open season on entitled white women and I could not be happier!! All those years of lying and pointing your fingers at men, all those false claims and fake stories of being raped and attacked, all those years of being an untouchable, of bitching and degrading baristas and servers and minorities and men.... your time has come white ladies. And your time is UP!

This one does it every time.

It's everywhere now...all the fucking time.

If there’s a thread already, I apologize. I’ve done searches and nothing comes up with keywords.

Anyway, this cop kneels on this guy’s neck!

I want to get out of this hell hole that will be NYC in July and go to Germany. How likely is it that I’d be able to go? Will they continue blocking travelers from other countries, specifically the US?

Hello DataLounge Friends.

This week I finalized my enrollment in a Master’s Degree hybrid program. I had been applying for jobs to use my teaching certification, but as a diabetic I decided I wasn’t comfortable going back to the school setting during the current crisis.

I have some mixed feelings, because... 1.) I am going to be a Buckeye! My husband’s parents, all of his brothers, and their wives have at least one degree from Ohio State, so it’ll be cool to fit in, but do l have to be an obnoxious sports fan now?! 2.) I love learning, I am getting into a great program with the strong possibility of a pretty great assistantship, but I’m also nervous to adjust to the demands of going to to school.

My question is...for those of your who have gone BACK to school after a break, what’s your best advice? I have been out for six years. Five of those I was on “the other side of the desk” so I’m not totally out of the groove, but I want to be in a strong position.

I hope everyone is staying safe.

Gone With the Wind Fabulous!

One always detects a little schadenfreude by DC at New York's miseries

NEW YORK — It was laundry that broke Mary Shell. Or rather, the lack of an in-unit washer and dryer in her Brooklyn apartment where Shell, 37, a field producer for reality television, could barely afford her half of the rent before the novel coronavirus pandemic because work had been slow for months. Times are even tougher now that her roommate, also unemployed, has had to move back in with her parents.

Shell was so financially strapped that she began inquiring about various night-life gigs, only to see covid-19 close all the bars and clubs. (“So that’s another job you can’t do in a pandemic.”) Still, her situation might have been bearable if the nearest laundromat wasn’t four blocks away.

“I just want to be able to do laundry without having to drag it up and down a four-story walk-up or pay someone $40 or $50 to do it for me,” said Shell — echoing a gripe of New York City’s apartment-dwellers so timeless that “Seinfeld,” “Friends,” “Living Single” and “Broad City” all have episodes about the indignities of shared laundry facilities. But throw in a pandemic and Shell said the stress has been “exhausting,” noting how she recently showed up to her laundromat to find that someone had handled all the clothes she had just washed.

“Everyone deserves space and basic amenities,” she said, lamenting how, in New York, many landlords deem a washing machine a “luxury” item. “It’s just insulting to come at us and be like, ‘We’re going to charge you an extra thousand dollars a month for this standard appliance that’s been in American households since the 1970s.’ ” It’s enough to make her contemplate leaving, for good.

Welcome to the Great Reassessment.

New York City is a shadow of its pre-pandemic normal. Like Shell, many residents are out of work, out of money, out of patience and out of sorts. Reassessments are happening throughout the country, but nowhere else are they as sharply focused as here, in the nation’s most populated, most dense, most diverse metropolis — where more than 21,000 have died. Even with all the chaos, filth and struggle, nostalgics have long mourned every change in what they called the “vanishing” city. But calls to the city’s mental health hotlines have surged. Whether they have left, or whether they have no option to leave, New Yorkers are having to ask themselves whether the city they love is really still livable.

We know Trump will attack Biden's running mate, but who among these would be the least polarizing VP pick for Biden (polarizing when it comes to the entire national electorate)?

Amy Klobuchar

Gretchen Whitmer

Kamala Harris

Tammy Duckworth

Obviously Barrie Youngfellow and Valerie Harper were behind it, but what about the details?

6:26 PM PT -- 5/14 Tough news for Mary-Kate ... her request to submit an emergency divorce filing was denied. Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Michael Katz ruled that the proceeding would not move forward.

Mary-Kate Olsen wants to get divorced, but she's hit a major roadblock -- coronavirus, so now she wants an emergency court order to speed things along.

Mary-Kate says her attorneys got an email from her husband, Pierre Olivier Sarkozy's attorneys this week giving her a May 18 deadline to get her stuff out of their NYC apartment. She claims Pierre is trying to force her out, because he terminated their lease without her knowledge.

She says she's been asking Pierre to give her until May 30, but claims he hasn't responded.

In the docs, obtained by TMZ, she says she can't meet the deadline -- this coming Monday -- because of quarantine guidelines in the city. Mary-Kate says the only way she can protect her property is if she's to file a divorce petition. That would trigger an automatic court order preventing him from disposing of her property.

Mary-Kate says she signed a petition for divorce back on April 17, but was informed NY courts were not accepting divorce filings -- other than emergencies -- due to the COVID-19 pandemic that was raging in the city.

She's requesting an emergency order to allow her to file the divorce. She's included her divorce petition in the filing, and in those docs, she requests their prenuptial agreement be enforced.

Olivier, a French banker, and Mary-Kate tied the knot in November 2015 in an intimate Manhattan ceremony. They started dating in 2012.

They don't have any kids together -- Olivier has 2 from his first marriage. This was Mary-Kate's first marriage ... and now her first divorce.

I cannot bear to look at Kumail Nanjiani. The combination of shoe-brush eyebrows and perpetual smirk makes me wanna HURL.

Each daughter of Czar Nicholas II and Alexandra Feodorovna more beautiful than the last. Rasputin! Terrible fate not fully resolved until 1980s. Funeral and burial in 1990s. Striking likeness to existing BRF members. Russian Crown jewels and their whereabouts. Site of their execution extant until 1977 (Ipatiev House) when Yeltsin (under pressure) ordered it demolished - and regretted it in his memoirs. Have at it DL - GO!

Then bull balls.

Since the other one is now behind the paywall.

Did it have to be SO bad????

Is she the greatest screen actor of all time? Took me a while to get used to her persistent Brooklynese (love it) and her odd looks (well, compared to the usual American leading lady type), but IMHO, she really is.

The hot Spaniards are back in class and as always partying, drugs, betrayal and murder are mixed in with school work and competitive scholarships. Now poor Lu throws her Valentine’s Day party with an upside down theme and the boys have to dress as sluts. Guzman comes in tight jeans and a halter. Polo ends up in yet another MMF, and Omar has an illicit kiss with someone who is not his hot boyfriend Zander.

Does quiet rhyme with riot?

Who gives a shit? We got a show to pull off YouTube!

Cheetolini's favorite new cable news station.

I watched a few minutes of this; it makes Fox look like Democratic Socialists. Just nonstop promotion of the president and lies about the impeachment process. And the anchors are cheap imitations of Hannity, Megyn Kelly, etc.

Has anyone watched this shitshow?

100,000 dead Americans. One wrong president.

Brutal ad against Trump.

After he was shuffled from foster home to foster home following his mum’s death.

Not even a global viral pandemic or a house fire could stop these gay dads from becoming new parents as they adopted a 17-year-old who spent five years in the foster care system after his mother passed away.

Chad and Paul Beanblossom of Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, adopted their son Michael, who they had fostered since 2019, over a Zoom call.

As court proceedings juddered to a sudden halt amid the coronavirus pandemic, 80 people – from friends to family to adoption experts – all joined the Beanblossoms on Zoom to witness the moving moment the adoption was formalised.

“The judge mentioned it was the largest Zoom adoption she had done to date,” Chad told Good Morning America on Tuesday (May 18).

The Beanblossoms have been married for five years, have three biological children and are also grandparents. They’ve fostered a few children before meeting Michael, who entered the system after his mother passed away, and now can’t imagine life without him.

Beaning with pride, the parents told GMA how they’d taken in Michael after he had bounced across nine different foster homes over a span of five years.

“When Mike came to us, he was labelled a higher risk because he had ran [away] before,” Chad explained.

“But we’ve never saw that kid. He just kind of came in and took over our hearts.

He’s taught us just as much, if not more, than we have him. Our whole world revolves around Michael. “We wanted the same thing that he did,” Chad said, speaking of how Michael himself requested he be formally adopted by the Beanblossoms. “It’s really hard to imagine our life without him.”

Allyson Sayne, a family services worker at the Tennessee Department of Children Services, also gave some background showing just how momentous the adoption process has been for the family.

“Paul and Chad Beanblossom have been great at advocating for Michael and giving him opportunities that he may have not gotten otherwise,” Sayne told the talk show.

“This family had to undergo a tragedy of a house fire a month before Michael’s adoption, but they focused on the fact that they had each other and didn’t let it affect Michael’s adoption.”

And with that, our faith in humanity has been renewed for at least another season.

If money were no object, where would you choose? Could be a region, city, or a specific property listing if you've got one to share. Defend your choice.

Now he looks like a real Chicago fireman after too many beers and deep dish pizzas...and tacos, as evidenced by the photo.

Derek has lived many of his recent years under the microscope with his fame. He’s been a part of live dance performances and recorded ones and learned from both. He has noticed an uptick in sharing or “over-sharing” of information and has often wondered if it can all be too much. “But I think it’s beautiful if it’s used for the right reasons – in a good way, in a positive way,” he noted.

I think they're just milking it now.

Just watched him on Dave Rubin. I always hoped he was family but on the other hand I did like what he had to say about how we should focus on not only improving both parties from within, but also in the necessity of reaching out and communicating with people you disagree with. Although he admits that he believes that white privilege exists, he doesn't believe it's institutional and doesn't believe that the government is actively trying to suppress people. If I were Rubin, I would have asked what institutional laws need to be passed knowing that institutional protections do not protect from unconscious bias. He also says that whe will carry a concealed weapon when he becomes an adult, which shocked me. He also says that even though he's pro gun control, he disagrees with a lot of the messaging from the movement he helped start and that he and Hogg don't necessarily see eye to eye.

He also appeared on Ben Shapiro's show knowing that he would be criticized just for that alone. He sounds very mature for his age and admits to not knowing everything, which is refreshing to hear. As someone who doesn't identify with either political party, watching him being interviewed gave me a lot of hope for future generations.

Similar to those of Shawn Mendes' "girlfriend" in this pic.

Do they take non white people in? Is there hot sex in the private gym?

Who will want to sit in a theater after all this. Plus will actors want to fly around the world to film things? Will it return to the old studio days where everything films in Los Angeles?

Dear Datalounge, long time therapy patient. Haven't been to a session in two months because of the pandemic. Been a functioning Agoraphobic since I was a teen. My therapist of course knows this. I haven't heard a thing not even a suggestion of phone sessions, not a call, e-mail, drive by wave on how I'm doing since my last session. Am I out of order and being silly? Or because there is no payment, out of sight, out of mind. Not really that needy but a call seems appropriate, for all she knows I could be dead.

They're trying to make him happen.

There is a new documentary, the streaming version was released today, called Code Blue. I heard about this project on Datalounge a few years ago by a poster who is somehow related to Dr. Stancic. Dr. Stancic was diagnosed with MS and found western medicine was making her sicker. She changed her diet, managed her stress, got more sleep and started an exercise program and several years later was able to finish a half marathon.

This documentary is a real eye opener about what doctors are taught in our medical schools. Doctors are trained in pharmaceuticals which tends to make patients sicker instead of fixing the problem.

I'm posting a link to the trailer, it's worth a watch.

Yes, I KNOW this is insignificant in light of the current situation. But that's never stopped DLers before, so I'm hoping you can help me.

I have a vacation house in the middle of very scenic Bumfuck, Nowhere. There is a small, eclectic community where the locals shop for groceries, clothes, lube, etc., but if you want any kind of major appliance you have to drive over 100 miles.

When I bought this house seven years ago, I bought for it a new, big-ass 55" Samsung TV, which has served me faithfully. However, I notice that unlike me, the Samsung is not aging all that gracefully. It still works perfectly, but I occasionally have to reboot it, etc. It is, I think, perhaps on its way out.

My question is this: can I buy a new replacement for it and keep it in the box until I need it, or will it "go flat" in the interim? My old Samsung could drop dead next week or in 2025. I have no idea. The reason this concerns me is that I have connections where I live, through whom I can buy a new Samsung at a HUGE discount, as opposed to having to buy one near my vacation home, where I'd pay LOTS more.

Do TVs "keep?"

Not Hallmark channel movies, but ones that are not about sex, death, or violence. Just clean, wholesome stories that are positive but not sappy or cheesy?n

Is it me or does he look like he has a touch of the downs? He has to be, hands down, one of the dumbest porn stars out there. Watching him outdo Dave’s Wavey as far as tard value? I didn’t think that could ever have happened.

Tiffani Thiessen and Richard Ruccolo, who played lovers on "Two Guys and a Girl" last year, are planning on being co-stars on a more permanent basis in real life.

Ruccolo proposed to his girlfriend of about one year, the actors' publicist, Elizabeth Much, told Zap2it.com. No details were available on the wedding date or how Ruccolo popped the question.

The marriage will be the first for both actors, who have been living together in the Hollywood Hills for several months, according to media reports.

Rumors have romantically linked Thiessen, who dropped the middle name "Amber" last year, to former co-stars Mark-Paul Gosselaar, whom she starred with on "Saved by the Bell," and Brian Austin Green, from "Beverly Hills, 90210." Thiessen also dated actor David Strickland shortly before he hung himself in a Las Vegas motel room.

Not auditioned, not considered, but offered the role and said no. Bonus points if you list why.

Heather Graham turned down the role of Pam in Meet the Parents because it wasn't a lead role. Teri Polo took the role.

Val Kilmer turned down Jeffrey in Blue Velvet (played by Kyle MacLachlan) because he found the script "pornographic."

Molly Ringwald's mom turned down the role of Sandy in Blue Velvet for her. Laura Dern was cast instead.

Sigourney Weaver was Jane Campion's first choice for the role of Ada in The Piano. Holly Hunter won an Oscar for it.

Jennifer Jason Leigh turned down the role of Lynn in LA Confidential because she said she had already played too much prostitutes. Kim Basinger won an Oscar for it.

Molly Ringwald turned down playing Vivian in Pretty Woman to do Betsy's Wedding instead. Julia Roberts took the role.

The only problem is that it came in a brick. I've never used this type of coffee. How exactly do you make it?

I haven't yet opened the package, but do I have to grind it? Or pound it out with a hammer? Or do I cut off a slice of the brick and just stick it in the coffee filter?

Funny how only in pornography can someone with felony assault, get an award at a vanity project that after a few years thinks it’s the “Oscars” of gay porn. Zach Sire sure loves to report in the dirt of people, but is it a possible attraction to someone that he doesn’t report on a model from a studio he’s obsessed with? And blocks people on social media for tweeting him the link. Sad.

The beating starts at 1:22 in the video link.

Just imagine if the races were reversed: the clickbait 24/7 wealthy media elite would playing this footage daily, nightly, and weekly. However, this particular hate crime jeopardizes their white on black narrative. They need their whites to be evil, and their blacks to be innocent. We're all nothing but objects to the 1%, chess pieces to be moved and removed at will and according to their whims. The last thing that they want is their citizens to unite against them.

Can we please stop with this ridiculous trope!

I just watched some of that Netflix Hollywood show and they have a storyline about some 1940s gas station where young hunks get paid to service these old horny hagresses.

PLEASE! If such a place existed, they certainly were not servicing old hags. Get real! They were getting paid to have sex with men!

Elijah Wood: Deep Impact

Daniel Day Lewis: There Will be Blood

Remember when this started in March and we decided we were going to stay indoors for as long as it took? Since March 15th I've only been out ONCE a WEEK to get groceries and other essentials (minus one week where I had to go out a second time to leave vitamins and masks on my aunt's door step). I am completely self-isolating.

I expected some flouting of the recommendations once the warm weather hit but to see people at at clubs and pool parties like NOTHING is going on is beyond disheartening. It makes me want to throw up. So I can only imagine how it feels to the healthcare workers out there.

To all of you: Until a vaccine is found it is your DUTY to limit outdoor travel as much possible and to only the bare essentials.

It seems all the messaging has been lost on you. I think we truly do deserve a second wave sometimes.

‘Tiger King’: Joe Exotic’s Husband Dillon Passage Reveals One Thing Joe Doesn’t Know About the Show(Exclusive) et Tiger King star Joe Exotic's husband, Dillon Passage, made waves over the weekend when he partied with Too Hot To Handle star Bryce Hirschberg. The two celebs, from two of Netflix's biggest hit series, partied on a boat in Marina del Rey, California.

Passage turned up to celebrate Hirschberg's 30th birthday with friends, and the pair posed for cozy snapshots while piloting around the waters adjacent to the oceanfront city.

Passage, 24, shared photos of the festivities -- which went down on Saturday and Sunday -- to his Instagram story.

"Birthday boy. The man, the myth, the legend," Passage said, describing Hirschberg in a video he posted from the reality star's boat. "Marina Del Rey, bitches!"

Bryce Hirschberg Bryce Hirschberg/Instagram According to People, Passage befriended Hirschberg after meeting him through mutual contacts and Passage's manager also reps two of Hirschberg's Too Hot to Handle co-stars.

TMZ reports that Hirschberg invited Passage to the birthday bash after Passage reached out to him following the popular success of the Netflix reality dating series.

Passage, meanwhile, is married to Exotic -- whose real name is Joseph Maldonado-Passage -- who is currently serving a 22-year prison sentence on multiple charges including murder-for-hire and animal abuse.

Passage spoke with ET back in April and opened up about his marriage to Exotic, including the fact that the Tiger King star -- who is an avowed polygamist himself -- would "support" him if he were to pursue another relationship during Exotic's time behind bars.

"Me and Joe have had that conversation, actually," Passage revealed to ET's Lauren Zima. "He doesn't want me alone forever. Right now, I don't feel the need to fill that empty void, [but] if I do ever meet somebody that I feel is going to be very important to me, then Joe would be perfectly fine-- Well, maybe not perfectly fine, but he would support my decision to be happy again."

Are there different stages of Frau? For example, I went to my niece’s wedding last weekend; it was like Pinterest exploded at the reception, you could tell she took waaaaay too much “inspiration” and tried to put every cutesy little thing to use.

She’s only 25, but does that make her a frau yet? I always assumed fraus were older, with children.

I’ve heard it’s pretty easy to get laid in Toronto

What GIFes?

Now I'm not so Sure, Jan.

My alarm goes off at 7:45 am. On some mornings my partner, Layne, is there laying next to me. But today it's just me and my little terrier mutt, Paco, who sleeps with his head on my chest. He has terrible breath, but the cuddles are worth it.

Layne is at his house in Koreatown with his roommate. We have decided that, for the time being, we're going to split our time between our two homes — some nights together, some nights apart.

"Good morning!" I text Layne, "I love you." Checking in has become a ritual of ours during lockdown.

I let Paco out, feed the cats, and make coffee. I put Bon Iver on the record player and sit down to write.

I can hear Matías, a friend who recently moved to Los Angeles from New York City, in the guest room. Alex, my ex-husband, is moving around in his room.

I am a 51-year-old gay man in an open relationship with my partner, which means we are allowed to play with other guys — together and apart. I'm quarantining with my ex-husband, his boyfriend, and our friend.

A lot of people ask me what it's like to live with my former partner. I tell them that he is like a brother. Just because things didn't work out in our marriage doesn't mean we don't want play a large role in each other's lives.

We live in a small three-bedroom craftsman house in Hollywood with a guest house in the back, where our friend — Robert — lives. We also have a front yard, and a backyard.

Sometimes it is just me, Alex, and Matías. Sometimes Layne is with us and Alex's boyfriend, Dylan, too. Dylan is quarantining in Silverlake with his roommate.

This is my family during the coronavirus pandemic: Five gay men, two cats, and a dog.

We are three separate households all coming together during this period of lockdown. We have very clear rules. We have all agreed to follow the guidelines around social distancing. We wear face masks when we have to go out, frequently wash our hands, and don't engage in potentially "dangerous" activity with anyone outside our extended family.

We know it's not just ourselves we are putting at risk.

Living in lockdown has forced us all to examine how we live our lives and how we approach our relationship with each other and other guys. Layne and I have had to talk a lot about what it means right now to be in an open relationship.

We decided that for the duration of the lockdown we would not be meeting other men. We are allowed to chat, video chat, attend Zoom "circle jerks' and exchange all the pictures we want. But for now, physically, it is just us.

We can revisit this as the world slowly begins to open up.

Being fluid is one of the most important tools in an open relationship. We both agree that we want to be able to explore other sexual partners, to be able to have experiences together and separate. But we are also aware that there will be times in our relationship when we will need to close things up, focus only on ourselves, or maybe renegotiate the rules around our status.

I've learned that non-traditional relationships require a lot of communication. Sometimes I feel like all we do is talk — even more so than when I have been in more traditional monogamous partnerships.

It is important that Layne gets to express his feelings around my living with my ex and it's my job to listen and to try to be as open and honest as possible.

For the most part it works. Layne is part of my family, just like Alex and Dylan and Matías are.

But living under stay-at-home rules can exacerbate any situation. We find balance in coming together for family time, when we eat dinner, watch movies, or just sit in the yard and in also allowing each other private space.

Finding this balance isn't always easy.

Sometimes we don't behave well. I have also found that small things can make me angry — if someone's hat is left on the table, if there are a few unwashed dishes, or there are no more cookies. Things that in normal times would not have bothered me can make me want to scream. Learning to self-regulate has been a challenge.

UCalifornia-Irvine sociologist argues that slavery acclimated African-Americans to a poor diet they've never overcome, which is in turn leading to their health problems today. Blacks are 2.4 X more likely to die from COVID than whites.

[quote] Promoting strained associations between race, body size, and complications from this little-understood disease [i.e. COVID-19] has served to reinforce an image of black people as wholly swept up in sensuous pleasures like eating and drinking, which supposedly makes our unruly bodies repositories of preventable weight-related illnesses. The attitudes I see today have echoes of what I described in “Fearing the Black Body: The Racial Origins of Fat Phobia.” My research showed that anti-fat attitudes originated not with medical findings, but with Enlightenment-era belief that overfeeding and fatness were evidence of “savagery” and racial inferiority.

I know Patrick Wilson has been naked on screen a lot. One time he even said that a friend told him that he shows his butt in everything.

Allegedly the cinematographer of “Criminal Minds" repeatedly groped male crew members, and retaliated against those who spurned his advances.

Trump is defaming the memory of a woman who died nearly 20 years ago—and inflicting pain upon her family today.

Donald Trump doesn’t merely want to criticize his opponents; he takes a depraved delight in inflicting pain on others, even if there’s collateral damage in the process, as is the case with the Klausutis family. There’s something quite sick about it all.

Will Trump’s white evangelical supporters—Franklin Graham Jr., Robert Jeffress, Eric Metaxas, Mike Huckabee, Ralph Reed—defend his behavior as the perfect embodiment of the New Testament ethic, the credo of Jesus, the message from the Sermon on the Mount? “Blessed are the brutal, for they shall inherit the Earth.”

In America you should not suffer financial consequences because someone else got sick. Everyone should be responsible for their own health decisions. I shouldn't be paying for someone else's health problems who willfully trashes their body when I choose to take care of myself.

Ryan Seacrest's rep is addressing concerns over his health.

On Sunday night, fans took to Twitter while watching the virtual American Idol finale to inquire about the 45-year-old host, who was broadcasting from his home. Nearing the end of the show, many social media users expressed their concern over Seacrest's health, stating the he was possibly exhibiting symptoms of a stroke. Fans noted that the host's eyes appeared swollen, and he appeared to jumble his words during the live event.

Seacrest was absent from hosting duties on Live With Kelly and Ryan on Monday morning, causing more concern from fans. However, Seacret's rep is now setting the record straight on his health.

"Ryan did not have any kind of stroke last night," his rep shared in a statement with People on Monday. "Like many people right now, Ryan is adjusting to the new normal and finding work-home balance, with the added stress of having to put on live shows from home."

"Between Live with Kelly and Ryan, American Idol, On Air with Ryan Seacrest, and the Disney Family Singalong specials, he has been juggling three-four on-air jobs over the last few weeks and he's in need of rest," the statement continued. "So today he took a well-deserved day off."

During Sunday's finale, singer Just Sam was crowned the winner of American Idol.

After winning, Just Sam told E! News' Lilliana Vazquez, "This is life-changing. This is a dream come true, all the good things."

I say good for him. But it just seems strange.

Hi all, it’s me, the guy who was (and still is) in lust with his cousin. I’ve been inactive on here for a pretty long while, but I thought I’d drop back in to give an update to those who care 😊. Last year was pretty on and off for us as far as our hanging out as frequently as we used to goes. I think the basis of it was a really petty argument that we got into sometime last summer (can’t even remember what it was about to be honest), but a couple of personal things as well as how fucked up the world has been as of late sort of made us realize that life’s too short to be angry, especially with family.

Anyway, he was over here at my place last weekend. I hadn’t seen him since he came over and stayed a couple of days back in February. Since that time, our communication had sort of fallen back to texts, phone calls and chats on social media. I was kind of surprised when he called me up out of the blue to see what I was doing, and when he asked if he could come over I said of course. We were both a little apprehensive because of this Covid shit, but he was wearing a mask when he first arrived and said he hasn’t had any symptoms (neither have I). So, he came over last week with beer (and it was Corona! How fitting!), and what immediately caught my attention was how his dick was bulging in the outfit he was wearing. He was in a white cotton t-shirt and black shorts that came just below his knees when he was standing, and both the shirt and the shorts had that “Fuck it” stickman logo on them, the one that you sometimes see on bumper stickers and such. I told him I loved it, but the entire time he was here I could not take my eyes off of his cock looking like it was about to burst from those damn shorts. I asked him at one point if he was wearing underwear and he side-eyed me as though to say “Come on, what do you think?” And what made it even better was when he would sit down, he would pull the shorts high up on his thighs and expose those long, creamy legs of his. I knew he loved giving me an eyeful, and I couldn’t help but snap some pics. Here's one...

London's National Theatre has been making a different old production available for streaming each week during the Corona lockdown.

I'm German, and lots of prestigious German theatres have been doing the same - Berlin's Schaubühne and Hamburg's Thalia Theater are even putting up a different productions every day. (Some of them with English subtitles available, I think, so it might be worth checking out even if you don't speak German.)

Are any other Anglophone theatres also streaming plays? (Or maybe French ones with subs?) Any recs?

May 15, 1973, Connie Francis released her new hit "Should I Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Old Oak Tree." It remained in the top 40 for three weeks. She had been taking a break from performing recently, but after her success with this new song, Miss Francis decided to perform again and was booked to star at the Westbury Music Fair in New York. On November 8, 1974, she checked into her hotel, the Howard Johnson's Lodge in Jericho, New York. That very night, Miss Francis life changed forever.

It has been many years since she died, even more since she sat next to her husband as his head was shot off. I was born after that, and my parents always had mixed things to say about her. She "held the country together" but then she made the "bone headed move" [my Mom with a rosary] of marrying Onassis. Enough time has gone by. How does History remember her. How do the fine folks of Datalounge?

Without actually saying it, Vin conveys the feeling that Trump is an irresponsible piece of shit. He was so angry when he found out that Trump is taking hydroxychloroquine saying Trump is just trying to save face because he's been promoting this drug from the start, and he thinks Trump's medical team should resign and not enable and encourage this bad behavior.

This is not a suitable topic for the decorative queens who sometimes stray into our deliberations. There is no decoration to fuss over, except perhaps the ceiling design which I love. The staircase is magnificent. The ivy has gone which is too bad; this was a house which in 1901 was the center of an estate consisting of seven productive farms - I assume they've gone too. The huntin', shootin' and fishin' rights are mentioned but I imagine are much reduced these days (if they still exist).

Christina and Linda play two OVER THE TOP women who get into hijinks! Are the gays excited?

Uh-oh, looks like Kelly Ripa has been telling her fans a bit of a fib and they are not pleased. The Live with Kelly and Ryan host was revealed to have been quarantining in the Caribbean instead of in New York City, where she usually lives and films her talk show, according to People.

Of course, there's nothing inherently wrong with quarantining on a beautiful island, but lying about it to your loyal viewers makes this "fib" a bit harder to forgive. The family was apparently vacationing on a Caribbean island when they got orders from ABC to shelter-in-place and, as a result, decided to stay. The news was shared by a fellow ABC employee after Ripa shared her story in a virtual town hall meeting for ABC employees.

"We had planned a trip for our family, and it was supposed to be our entire family of course," said Ripa, according to a source who attended the virtual town hall. "And we arrive and three days later, the entire world changed, really. I mean, everything shut down; the government shut down; our country shut down. I hate to use the word stuck, but we were. We decided to stay where we were."

After getting "stuck," the talk show host and her husband, Mark Consuelos, and their three adult children have stayed put in the Caribbean. And fans had a lot to say about their quarantine experience on Twitter.

But several retorts agree that it wasn't about where Ripa was staying, rather about her representing herself as being in New York when she obviously wasn't.

Though the timeline of Ripa's trip to the Caribbean looks questionable, at best, the general consensus seems like all of this could've been avoided if Ripa had said from the get-go that she was in the Caribbean.

I'm six feet tall, but in the gay community, it seems that short guys are more favored.

The Minnesota senator and former prosecutor has problems with communities of colors that another top white contender, Elizabeth Warren, does not.

Sen. Amy Klobuchar performed abysmally among black voters in the Democratic primary. It’s haunting her now as Joe Biden decides on a running mate.

The Minnesota Democrat has the governing experience and ideological profile to mesh well with Biden, and she’s regularly appeared as a surrogate and a fundraiser for him, raking in more than $1.5 million for a single event she headlined. The pair have a warm relationship, trading phone calls when her husband was hospitalized with Covid-19, and they didn’t tangle publicly during the primary.

But more than a dozen black and Latino strategists and activists warned in interviews that selecting Klobuchar would not help Biden excite black voters — and might have the opposite effect. Klobuchar would “risk losing the very base the Democrats need to win,” said Aimee Allison, founder of She the People, which promotes women of color in politics. They pointed to Klobuchar’s poor performance among nonwhite voters during the presidential primary, as well as her record as a prosecutor in Minnesota.

It’s not yet clear how much the opposition of activists matters to Biden. He's made clear that the electoral politics of his pick matter less than choosing someone who can be a governing partner and step into the top job without worry.

But the vocal contingent of African American and Latino detractors — many of whom said they would prefer that Biden select a black woman as a running mate — is unique to Klobuchar; Elizabeth Warren, another top contender for VP, doesn’t elicit similar antagonism from communities of color.

"It comes from her performance in the primary — her weakness in being able to motivate them," said Adrianne Shropshire, executive director of BlackPAC, who supports several potential vice presidential selections. “The engagement and the enthusiasm of black voters is going to be a difference-maker in this election, and the concerns about her in this role stem from the degree to which she resonated or not with those core constituencies.”

Earlier this week, Biden confirmed that "multiple black women [are] being considered" for vice president. Those often named include Sen. Kamala Harris, former Georgia gubernatorial nominee Stacey Abrams and Florida Rep. Val Demings. Besides Klobuchar, other Midwestern options, like Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, have been mentioned.

But for many of these operatives, Klobuchar symbolizes a strategic division within the Democratic Party: whether to focus on winning back white, Midwestern voters who flipped to Donald Trump in 2016, or on activating voters of color who were not excited to vote. She “represents that tension,” said the Rev. Al Sharpton, who added he’s told Biden that he would prefer a black woman on the ticket, but noted he’s “not anti-Amy.”

A manhunt is underway for a University of Connecticut student suspected of killing two people and stealing guns and cars in a three-day rampage.

“We know that he is armed and dangerous,” Connecticut State Trooper Christine Jeltema said at a Sunday press conference. “Do not approach him.”

In the early afternoon, police said suspect Peter Manfredonia, 23, was driving a stolen black Volkswagen Jetta with a sticker paying tribute to victims of the Sandy Hook massacre in his hometown of Newtown. Hours later they said that car had been found empty near the border of New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

Police have been looking for Manfredonia since Friday when he was seen leaving the scene of a brutal assault on two older men.

Cynthia DeMers, whose husband Theodore was killed, told the Hartford Courant that Manfredonia had been walking down their road in Willington and needed a ride to his motorcycle.

“It could have been anybody who offered him a ride,” she told the newspaper. “It could have been any of my neighbors’ husbands. It just happened to be mine.”

Minutes after her husband and neighbor left with the suspect, her husband and the other man were found. DeMers could not be revived, and police said the second victim’s injuries were extremely serious. They did not describe the injuries.

It’s believed that on Saturday night, Manfredonia broke into a house in Willington, swiped long guns and a pistol and a car—which was later found abandoned after a crash near Osbornedale State Park in Derby.

SWAT teams and K-9 units swarmed the park, as Derby police warned on Facebook: “Residents are asked to remain vigilant as this suspect is considered armed and highly dangerous.”

Hours later, police said they believed Manfredonia had escaped the area. Even more chillingly, they said the investigation had determined that his most recent stop was a Derby home where he allegedly killed an acquaintance, 23-year-old Nicholas J. Eisele, and stole the getaway Jetta.

Manfredonia is 6-foot-3, 240 pounds, and wearing a gray T-shirt, gray sweatpants. He played football for Newtown High School and his Facebook page—which has not been updated since last year—shows he has raised money for Sandy Hook Promise, a non-profit that fights gun violence.

UConn confirmed Manfredonia is enrolled in its School of Engineering/School of Business program but said he was not living on campus.

Starting to believe the paranoid posters.

Just a few hours away

The Road So Far...

It's never ending.

So let's admire Jensen's cute butt for a little while, shall we?

I think I need to take a break from all the "thinking man’s" films I usually watch. For some reason I got hooked on creature features and Italian peplums from that era a few days ago. I'm really not well familiar with those sort of older B-movies so I'm looking for some titles to add to my watchlist. The campier and schlockier, the better. Overheated melodramas are fine too.

Will somebody help me?!

Here is a link to an interesting YouTube video. "Boys Beware" is a 1961 dramatic short social guidance propaganda film released through Sid Davis Productions. It probably was shown to junior high age students. I'm an old car buff so I enjoy seeing the vehicles. Odd to see Jimmy leading Ralph up the stairs to the motel room. Could he be the top? Bad boy!

There is nothing more satisfying. The world is finally sick of histrionic bitches’ shit.

Since y'all insist on mispronouncing it or misspelling it as "Bahn Mi," please refer them as Viet Baguette. The word "banh mi" just mean sandwich or bread or baguette in Vietnamese. No need to be fancy and calling it "Banh mi." It sounds ridiculous since there is equivalent of it in the English language. It is like being in Utah and insisting on calling an apple "pomme." "Pho," however, is a unique word in Vietnam and there is no equivalent English translation for it, so we can keep "pho" in English.

Dear Sir, Sear Madam, moo! Reopen, baby, reopen and moo!

So, it’s the first time we’re out of the barn in 6 months! That’s some quarantine and social distancing, but we’re frisky and free and I just gotta moo! Come moo with us, you’ll feel so much better, I promise.

If you’re feeling sick, we want to hear from you. Just moo, and we’ll send a cow out from the critical care cow center to look after you. We got your back, baby, and we haven’t lost a cow yet!

The Dem running for congress in the Montana at-large seat (the state is only large enough for one seat) has a real good shot at winning. Montana right now has a very popular Dem governor currently running for senate. And the dems have a very strong candidate running for Governor. If those two and Tom win, Dems will control all the most important positions in the state.

He supports medicare for all, stronger gun control, a transformative climate policy, and many other good things. But who am I kidding he's also hot as hell!!

I love talk radio. Stephanie is political but funny. Randi is very engaging but more hard-hitting.

Great women. Both very progressive.

So maybe we should throw in the towel, because NO ONE is taking it seriously

According to this former star dealer Gérard Fauréex, a great French actor known internationally that he names Mr "A" was providing children for the rich rapists, he finished by being fired by Hassan 2 who forced him to sell his property in Morocco.

His insider testimony is rich in revelation on the dark side of the world of the powerful: politicians, artists, journalists, the judiciary…He has just implicitly accused Alain Delon of being a former pimp of child molestation :

She is the embodiment of evil, and I predict fireworks, shade, and perhaps gun play.

Today is the last day of a free 30-day Netflix trial, and that was more than enough time to watch everything I wanted to. I'm not interested in any of the new scripted shows that Netflix produces. Without them, the selection is not that different from what's available on Hulu, Amazon Prime or YouTube.

Costars hate each other all the time, that's not new. But they can usually pull it together long enough to pretend in front of the cameras. Any examples of costars who weren't professional or talented enough to disguise their contempt for their costar?

I imagine this happens on soaps a lot where they aren't the best actors and they don't have time to screw around, they have to get thru their scenes on schedule. And not exactly the same thing but co-hosts/anchors seem to hate each other a lot too and since they aren't actors they aren't as good at hiding it.

Jordan Peele's #Candyman gets gory first trailer

Suzanne Morphew went missing on May 8 and of course her husband Barry is getting the side eye from armchair detectives. She went for a bike ride and never returned - bike found abandoned. Barry then made a Chris Watts-like video begging for his wife's safe return and there are folks reading his body language as... weird. I happened across a Youtube true crime posters who says the latest update is as follows: Her childhood friend is saying her body has been found. She wanted a divorce and he found out. He was having affairs. He shot her in their basement then along with 2 young women buried her in cement! 1 of three women is a 29 yr old mistress from a job site. They have arrested Barry. 2 other arrests will be done in connection.

Who knows if any of this latest news is true or a troll is trying to seem in the know. However, if it is true, this guy is scum.

Have you ever used hoodoo, santeria, or black magic to get protection from or revenge on an enemy? I went to a palo priest to protect me from a boss who had it out for me. She ended up losing all her friends at work, and then she developed health problems that forced her to quit.

That was worth the $125 I paid him. You?

“Everything counts in large amounts, and Brad has had hundreds of millions of dollars to try to move Donald Trump’s numbers,” Wilson said. “He can’t.”

“Parscale was pocketing millions for himself and his companies, Wilson said, as Trump’s poll numbers sank.”

“We found out a couple days ago, not only is brad cashing in on the campaign and the money that hard-working Americans are sending to Donald Trump because they think he is going to use it to get re-elected, but Brad is getting [Paycheck Protection Program] payments for his companies. The struggling Parscale Enterprises who are raking in tens of millions of dollars from Donald Trump did not need additional millions of dollars from taxpayers, at least in my opinion.”

This was in my inbox, along with a file to download. Honestly, do these scammers even try anymore? NOTICED? PAYEMENT? I almost sent a few bucks just for making me laugh.

We're both in our 50s. I'm within 10 years of retirement. He has a green card but wants to go for US Citizenship. Won't affect his Thai citizenship.

I speak a bit of Thai and by 66, I will be rather good at it. Healthcare (Thailand has some outstanding healthcare) but it's like pre-ACA, lots of exclusions, and pre-existing conditions for foreigners. After 70 it's almost impossible to get health insurance (as of now).

They don't recognize gay marriage. So in Thailand, we're not married but under U.S. law we are (for the moment at least).

Taxes. Still obligated to pay taxes, though in retirement we won't come close to 103,000.

I'll be an immigrant. It doesn't bother me. Can't own land but can own the building on the land. So he would own the land and we would build and own the house.

Not even considering Bangkok but maybe north. Been there 3 times. Don't like the south, too hot. Don't like the middle, too boring. Don't like Bangkok, way to fucking crowded.

It would be near his family, so as we age, we'll have lots of family to help.

What do you think?

I've noticed some people think movies like Mommie Dearest (1981) and Showgirls (1995) are actually good because they enjoy them. I don't know if I agree. For me, something like Scream for Help (1984) is a fun, but clearly not a good movie.

For example my bf hates coriander, in my case garlics ruin every plate for me.

Agree or disagree? Who would you add or delete?

You may now feel better about every decision you've ever made.

May they be as happy as that Trump-loving helicopter couple.

Katie Rose Waldman and Stephen Miller, who both work in the Trump White House, were married Feb. 16 at Trump International Hotel in Washington. Rabbi Aryeh Lightstone, who is a senior adviser to David Friedman, the United States ambassador to Israel, officiated.

Mrs. Miller, 28, is a special assistant to President Trump and the press secretary to Vice President Mike Pence. From November 2017 to February 2019, she served as a spokeswoman for the United States Department of Homeland Security during the tenure of Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen.

Mrs. Miller graduated from the University of Florida and received a master’s degree in public administration from George Washington University. She is a daughter of Sheryl Waldman and Glenn Waldman of Fort Lauderdale, Fla.

Mr. Miller 34, is a senior White House adviser, which includes serving as Mr. Trump’s top immigration adviser, directly shaping policies that aim to restrict the number of immigrants coming to the country.

Mr. Miller became the senior policy adviser on the Trump campaign in January 2016, and was appointed the policy director for the Trump transition team in November 2016.

He graduated from Duke. He is a son of Miriam Miller and Michael Miller of Los Angeles.

The couple had spoken many times on the phone in the course of their work, including multiple conference calls, but had never met in person. They were introduced by mutual friends on a Friday in spring 2018 and were engaged about a year and a half later.

Were you always getting electrocuted?

Trump accused the platform of “stifling free speech” after it added a link to reports debunking his tweets about mail-in ballots leading to fraud.

The social media giant has faced mounting pressure to take responsibility for the president’s persistent use of the platform to spread misinformation and baseless conspiracy theories. Earlier on Tuesday, Twitter was criticized for declining to remove Trump’s tweets suggesting MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough, a former Republican congressman, might have killed 28-year-old intern Lori Klausutis when she worked in his Florida office. She died in 2001 after hitting her head on a desk. Authorities determined she fainted due to a previously undiagnosed heart condition and ruled her death an accident.

I'm a few years late and would have five seasons to watch, but what the hell? Coronavirus has given me lots of time. Worth tuning in?

It's like Dawn of the Dead.

I have a tv mounted in my bathroom for when I’m chillin in the bath, brand new so it’s not faulty. My buddy recently passed and when he did I focused on him and had a candid conversation with him saying “Come on Cody, if you’re still around send me a sign. You know I would for you” and kept razzing him as I would in life. The tv in my bathroom turned on by itself. Creeped me out. Now it happens all the time, at weird times, and every time it does I instantly think of him. Creeps me the fuck out TBH but I’m assuming now it’s Cody just razzing me back

Over the weekend I was watching some old family videos with my mom. These were from when I was about 12 to 14, when I started to realize I was gay but wasn't close to being out. Until I came out at 17, I thought I was hiding it successfully. But in the vids I watched, I saw that most of the time I wasn't hiding it at all. Were you equally bad when you were young at hiding your gay self from the world? And did people around you pretend not to notice it, the way my mom did?

How did DL not discuss this?

Have no intention of trying the drug but wonder what the allure was.

Dez Bitches Be Crazy!

Seems like I'm spending half my life in Zoom meetings nowadays. My apartment is hardly designer chic, and I'm sick of seeing people with bookshelves overloaded with Camus and Wittgenstein behind them. I'd like to get a cool background - either image or video would be fine. It would be great to have a 100-man gay orgy going on in the background, but I don't think that HR would be too happy with that. Any suggestions appreciated.

So many mysteries surround Donald Trump: the contents of his tax returns, the apparent miracle of his graduation from college. Some of them are merely curiosities; others are of national importance, such as whether he understood the nuclear-weapons briefing given to every president. I prefer not to dwell on this question.

But since his first day as a presidential candidate, I have been baffled by one mystery in particular: Why do working-class white men—the most reliable component of Donald Trump’s base—support someone who is, by their own standards, the least masculine man ever to hold the modern presidency? The question is not whether Trump fails to meet some archaic or idealized version of masculinity. The president’s inability to measure up to Marcus Aurelius or Omar Bradley is not the issue. Rather, the question is why so many of Trump’s working-class white male voters refuse to hold Trump to their own standards of masculinity—why they support a man who behaves more like a little boy.

swipe for the weird ass pic. Does this basically confirm she got it done? It doesn't look natural at all

Plus unlike some couples they don't look like twins!

If so, would you consider this a good development, a positive development?

Got any ideas to rile the Deplorables? I think we need to start a theory that Trump is actually trying to destroy the Republican Party from the inside. See Ann Coulter’s recent foaming-at-the-mouth “Retard” Tweets.

In the aftermath of Huffman’s arrest, it was revealed that Eva Longoria and Marc Cherry had written letters of support for Huffman to the court.

While Longoria didn’t name Hatcher directly she said: "I dreaded the days I had to go to work with that person because it was pure torture.

"Until one day, Felicity told the bully 'enough' and it all stopped.

"Felicity could feel that I was riddled with anxiety even though I never complained or mentioned the abuse to anyone. I know I would not have survived those 10 years if it wasn’t for the friendship of Felicity."

Eva later joked during a Jimmy Kimmel appearance that 99% of the cast got on – mentioning Felicity and Marcia Cross – but not naming Hatcher or Nicolette Sheridan.

While Cherry wrote to the court: "We had a problematic cast member on my show. She was a big star with some big behavioural problems. Everyone tried their darnedest to get along with this woman over the course of the show. It was impossible. And things went from bad to worse.

"At some point during season seven this woman decided she would no longer speak to her fellow cast members. ‘Felicity still insisted on saying, ‘Good morning’ to this actress, even though she knew she wouldn’t get a response."

In 2012, Marc Cherry testified Sheridan told him Hatcher was "the meanest woman in the world," when Sheridan tried to sue him and ABC for wrongful termination and assault – a case that was dismissed by the judge.

It’s past midnight in several places now and this year will bring more reading opportunities!

What are your reading plans for the New Year? And what are you reading now?

My goals are no no longer buy any ebook that aren’t from a prescribed list of favourite authors, or aren’t under $5. O have far too many unread.

I also plan to read 2 classics per month and about 6 per month in total.

I will start with big ‘uns - Moby Dick, In Search Of Lost Time and thanks to the recommendations of Prof in the Classics thread I started a few months ago, the Iliad.

That said, I’m currently on a trashy holiday read - Grace Metalious’s Peyton Place, no less - so wish me luck.

Tweeting

"COVID gave Trump a chance to be a decent, compassionate human being (or pretending to be). But he couldn't even do that."

oh honey, haven't we all been there?

I give Best answer!

We need to talk about Vaughn...

And Andrea...

I adore her. I find her very talented and first saw her in Loving. I find her gorgeous (coming from a gay male). What do you think of this talented and beautiful actress?

First off, the video is entirely cutoff from the initial confrontation which apparently by the man's own admission in a FB post included him saying "Look, if you're going to do what you want, I'm going to do what I want, but you're not going to like it.” That's an ambiguous threat that leaves a lot to the imagination. The woman was alone walking her dog and confronted by a weirdo birdwatcher that carries dog treats around to provoke these kinds of scenarios. Don't feed other people's dogs treats-- that a huge breach of social etiquette and a really strange thing to do.

Secondly, pulling out your phone in today's age to record someone is a threat in and of itself in today's climate and immediately signals that you intend to destroy a person's professional and social life through a public humiliation spectacle like the one we're watching. She was aware of this and having a meltdown in the process. I would too-- this is a huge breach of privacy, and an act of intimidation that should be illegal. If she doesn't commit suicide Ms. Cooper should be entitled to civic remedy for the total disproportionate devastation she has incurred.

Thirdly, using the term "African African" or "White" or "tall" or whatever on a call to the police is descriptive. If you see a crime in progress or believe yourself to be the victim of a crime these descriptive terms are essential to law enforcement for identification persons. Otherwise you're about as useful as Ms. Swan explaining that "he looka like a man."

Yes, there's a plethora of instances of these kinds of white wimmin making these kind of malicious accusations in order to have an innocent black or minority men executed by police. There was a particularly disturbing video of a Karen that surfaced a year or so ago wherein a middle aged white woman screams "GUN!" falsely in her suburban neighborhood hoping that someone would run to her defense and do her bidding. This doesn't look like one of those cases to me. It looks like two pissed off New Yorkers having a dick measuring contest over who wields the most power.

Was this dude's need to BIRDWATCH really worth destroying this woman's life over? Jesus fucking Christ. You do not turn a camera on someone and expect to reach a calm resolution, it's an escalation of the situation by itself.

I guess her being burnt on the social justice pyre for what could have easily been deescalated with a few kind words both ways is somewhat retributive; but why is this guy's behavior being whitewashed?

He comes across as an instigating troll in his own facebook regalement and the video we watched was not really not the full picture

“I’m gonna begin with the line—it’s not a line, it’s the truth: He never did anything to me. I never saw him do anything. And especially at this flash point in time, I’d have no reason to hold anything back. The guy has passed on. If anything—I’m not gonna say it would be stylish or anything like that, but right now is a good time to speak up. And if I had something to speak up about, I would totally do it. But no, I never saw anything; he never did anything.

Jackson was often the schoolmate he never had. Jackson got in touch with Mack after Home Alone, and suddenly they were hanging out. His parents neither encouraged nor discouraged the friendship. The way Mack sees it, Michael had a similar childhood, which is to say that he didn’t really have one, because his father was forcing fame upon him. So, at twenty-two years older than Mack, living in a place called Neverland, he felt the same age, in a way.

Mack and Jackson used to prank-call people. Jackson used to do these voices, real nerdy—“Hello, I’d like to buy a refrigerator. How big are your refrigerators?” And Mack would laugh and laugh.

The last time Mack saw him was in the men’s room at the Santa Barbara County Superior Courthouse in 2005. Mack was twenty-four. Michael was forty-six. Mack was testifying in Jackson’s defense in People v. Michael Jackson, in which the singer was charged with intoxicating and molesting a thirteen-year-old boy who had cancer. He was eventually acquitted.

There was a short recess during Mack’s testimony. Mack took a leak, and Michael came in. Jackson said, “We better not talk. I don’t want to influence your testimony.” They laughed a little at this. Michael Jackson, who had been more famous perhaps even than Macaulay Culkin when he was eight, ten, eleven years old, looked whipped. Exhausted. Drained. They hugged.

What do think about this guy Jeff Sanders and other "productivity" gurus?

As a child, Carl Switzer physically injured other children and vandalized studio equipment on the Our Gang set.

Alcohol and "trouble with the law" followed after he became an adult.

He managed to be married long enough to sire an offspring but the mother changed the kid's surname and distanced him from Carl.

Somebody shot him once but no details available. He survived that.

But eventually he was shot in the nuts and died at 31 while threatening someone with a knife. The shooter got off on self-defense.

After Out Gang he never starred in anything but his filmography of bit parts was ling and steady until his death.

Anyone watch? I saw a few episodes on HGTV then binged all the ones I missed on HULU. I like the idea of these two trying to save old houses in their town. I like them better than Chip and Joanne who foisted their kids on us every episode and at least this Mississippi couple appear to be more gay friendly those Waco freaks.

And it shows in his face and ass. He still looks great, actually, I find him hotter now. He looks so damn thick. That ass looks AMAZING

The Jamaican tranny claims that sex with minors is not pedophilia.

I listened to Jaime King on Illeana Douglas's movie podcast last week, and it was honestly difficult to listen to at times. You could tell she was straining her vocabulary to try and sound as intellectual and well-read as possible, but it was clear that she's not. Which other famous people do this? There has to be a lot of them.

After years of pretending to be allies, while using their sloppy snatches to get money and power, is this the end of white females and their ability to win the mental games of life and play the victim? Will the Mayella Ewells of the world finally be put to bed?

Is there even going to be a ceremony?

If you could be a biological woman for a day, would you do it? What would you look like? What kind of hair would you have, how would you dress? Most importantly, who would you fuck? I would look like one of these white girls and find a whole frat house, and get gangbanged!

I have been watching this - it’s hysterical. Stars Billy Eichner (I forget if we love him) and has amazing guest cameos. Seth Meyers was on an asked Billy if he wanted to jerk off with him at a dog park; Mark Consuelos was on as a hot NJ gay guy and he and Billy kissed (not a stretch there) and so many others. The show is so good and so funny and very genius.

Every transaction has to be a massive question and answer session. I try to get in and out of stores as quickly as possible to minimize contact and every register transaction is a major back and forth discussion that completely contradicts the whole idea of social distancing.

A former Pensacola, Florida, teacher who pleaded guilty last year to sex offenses involving students begged a judge last week to consider ordering him to be castrated instead of sentencing him to prison, the Pensacola News Journal reported.

Mark Lua, a former high school English teacher, was arrested three times last year after allegations arose that he coerced a student into sending him an inappropriate video, had sex with an underage student, and that he had sexually assaulted an 18-year-old former student. He ultimately pleaded guilty to multiple sex crime charges that arose from the allegations.

"My actions were despicable to say the least," Lua said in court. "I do believe that punishment is necessary, and I am requesting chemical castration not only as a punishment but as an act of solidarity to show how sorry I am for everything. If your honor is so inclined, I am even willing to undergo physical castration if that way I can stay home and raise my daughter."

The judge didn't respond to Lua's request and sentenced him to 12 years in state prison, followed by 15 years of probation, the paper reported.

In an effort to coerce underage girls to send him inappropriate videos, Lua made a profile pretending to be the cosplayer and Instagram influencer Courtney Carmody, the News Journal reported.

"He seemed to seek out girls that came from unstable or troubled homes," Assistant State Attorney Erin Ambrose said during Lua's court hearing. "He manipulated them, and he betrayed them because he was a teacher."

At Lua's sentencing hearing, he told the court he suffered from a genetic disorder called neurofibromatosis that has caused numerous painful, tumorous growths. Lua said he was suffering from frequent panic attacks around the time of his crimes because of fears and concerns about the disease, the paper reported.

Ambrose dismissed that idea in court.

"This condition did not seem to debilitate him while he was trolling the halls, looking for students to have sex with," the prosecutor said, according to the News Journal.

Connor is still loved, though.

He wrote it and is Directing as well as starring. Good for him.

Now with more poll.

How is the stock market souring when so many people are unemployed. How does this all work? Isn’t the economy is big trouble right now?

These tiny little fruits aren't that famous for some reason. Do you like them ?

I think they are delicious.

A disturbing new report from the Canadian military paints a picture of severe neglect inside several of Ontario’s long-term care homes struggling with the Covid-19 pandemic, including observations of insect infestations, staffing shortages and patients being underfed and left in soiled diapers.

The Liar Tweets tonight!

My gift to Datalounge...enjoy.

Yes, this is a real show. Not a skit on SNL.

I've heard that a lot of Norwegians are actually quite conservative and western Norway especially is quite homophobic. Not sure completely but I remember there being a Norwegian anon here describing it like that.

Mentioned by Howard Stern resident impressionist Josh Robert Thompson as Bernie Sanders.

Which closet case do you think did the best job of fooling people?

Do you know if police have to wear masks? I just had a conversation with a police officer who said "Governor Dewine tried to make us wear a mask, and he got in trouble! I'm not a state employee, I don't have to wear a mask. It's against my civil rights!" Yeah, not the brightest.

But is this true? And fuck Governor Dewine for going on a national show, saying 90 percent of Ohioans are wearing masks when even police officers aren't.

Raw manliness is so attractive.

With no studio audience.

Thoughts and prayers to her (imaginary) relatives.

They're not doing too well over there. Hopefully it gets Putin!

This is kind of complicated, so bear with me. I have lived in the same apartment for over 5 years as a "subletter," paying my roommate the same amount every month without knowing the total rent of the apartment. My roommate told me yesterday that he is moving out, but doesn't want to break the lease since it's entirely in his name and not up until next year. His solution is for me to find a new roommate, pay him my rent plus the new roommate's rent every month, which he will then pay to the landlord.

Sounds sketchy, right? I asked him straight up what he pays for rent since I'll have to advertise that number when I look for a new roommate. But he kept tripping over his answer and I still don't have a solid number. So I'm almost certain he's bullshitting me. Since I want to keep living in this apartment, should I ask him again how to properly advertise his room or risk getting the landlord involved... who may kick me out and/or raise the rent? Help!

Has anyone else recently had issues watching more "mature" content from Youtube on their Amazon FireTV Stick? I watch a porn performer named Dave London on Youtube but now if I try watching him my FireTV Stick it says it's "Age-restricted content" and to click continue if I want to watch it but when I click continue it always says something went wrong and sends me back to the channel menu and I have no parental controls or restrictions set on either my Youtube account or my FireTV Stick and I can still watch his videos on Youtube on my PC.

Let's curate!!!

I just watched the wonderful "The Best Years Of Our Lives" on TCM. The film was great, but I was puzzled by the opening credits. Top billing went to Myrna Loy. Myrna is very good, but her role is clearly a supporting one. Dana Andrews and Frederic March ( hell, even Teresa Wright or Harold Russell) are the true focus of the film. Then I realized that Loy's name was a big draw at the time the film was released, so that's probably the reason she appears first in the credits. Same thing with "GoodFellas". The movie revolves around Ray Liotta's character from beginning to end, but Robert DeNiro gets listed first.

Any other films where this type of undeserved billing occurs?

I went downstairs to check my mail today and there was some Arab guy in the lobby. I checked my mail and he was waiting with the door open At the elevator so I got back in and said thanks. He got in the elevator but I noticed he didn’t press a floor. I then realized he was leering at me. He asked me if I was alone and I said no. He said too bad. I got off and he watched me walk to my door so he knows where I live. I should have went to another door but I was nervous and panicking and didn’t think. I made a show of yelling out “hey” when I entered my place but I’m scared. He was big and scary and I don’t like to fight. Do you think he’ll become a problem? What should I do?

Outrageous - the Part III thread was paywalled after only 65 posts.

So, here is a new thread where we can discuss this antiquated social system.y

The author of the novel, "Mrs Miniver", stated in one scene in the book when fox-hunting comes up at a dinner party, that it was both irresistable and indefensible.

Thus, royalty. Silly, bankrupt, past its sell date, an offence to right-thinking moderns . . .

and irresistable.

Have at it . . .

Well, bitches?

Looks like fun!

"Thor's Hammer"

Eldergay here who has lived in many different places. I've always kept certain things like address books and then files with contact information, as well as writing journal or diary entries. Because of that, I have a tendency to remember or be reminded of people long ago who probably don't remember me. It's not obsessive, but a lifelong habit. Every now and then I think of people and get nostalgic. I think that those with odd or unique names might be easy to find, but that always seems creepy. Anyone else?

What do you think DL?

And his cat Bentley.

Now that we know to introduce ourselves using our pronouns (not "preferred pronouns," please!), it's time to move on to gender-neutral honorifics.

Ind (abbreviation of individual)

M

Mx (pronounced “mix” or “mux”)

Misc (for miscellaneous)

Mre (for mystery)

Msr (a mix of miss/sir)

Myr

Pr (prounced “per”, for person)

Sai (pronounced “sigh”)

Ser (pronounced “sair”)

Which one will YOU be using? And remember, when meeting someone new, no matter how fleeting, the proper introduction is "My name is ----, and my pronouns are ze, zim and zis. My honorific is Msr. How may I address you?"

True Grit (2010)

Could they possibly be *this* stupid? I guess so -- the types who'd play Russian roulette to impress a date.

Concerning the infamous season 5 episode of TOO CLOSE FOR COMFORT "For Every Man There's Two Women," where Monroe (Jim J. Bullock) gets raped by two women in a van and he and Henry (Ted Knight) go confront the women after the fact. One of the "women" is actually a fat man in a dress, but it's never referred to as such. If I remember right. There's lots of discussion beforehand where Monroe admits what happened to Sarah, Jackie and Muriel, and they all have a group-think about rape and consent, complete with jokes and a laugh track.

I used to watch this show as a kid in the 80's but missed this one. Apparently it aired exactly once. I saw it years later online, once, and it was very surreal. The controversial episode is omitted off the official DVDs (go figure). I think in interviews cast from the show still don't like to talk about the episode but I think Bullock has.

The episode used to be online in bits and pieces, but appears to have been yanked. Can anyone find it?

I looked for an old thread on this but couldn't find one. There was a Jim Bullock thread but it wouldn't load for some reason.

As Part II has been paywalled already to nonsubscribers, I am starting a new thread. Do let's try to keep general news and gossip about royals everywhere here . . .

A quick scan of Billed-Blader, my favourite go-to for the Danish royals, confirms the ongoing case of bad acne that the next heir, Prince Christian is suffering. It's a miserable thing to suffer despite not being life-threatening, and as neither his mother nor father ever seem to have suffered from it if photos of them as young people are to be believed, I wonder where it comes from? It's bad enough for a boy, but worse for a girl, so hopefully the increasingly pretty Princess Isabella will not also go through it. Christian is also wearing braces on his teeth.

He's quite handsome already and growing up quickly.

First-time watcher, I've just started. The bitchy gay footman is already my favorite character

. . . the spawn of Satan.

Recently, YouTube started recommending Gogglebox episodes for me to watch (The original UK version of the short lived Bravo show "The People's Couch" which I also enjoyed) Just people sitting around watching trashy reality shows and whatnot. The recommendation came because I am spending most of my quarantine time watching old English game shows. (as an aside...please watch Cluedo below...fascinating cast of DL favorites)

Anyways...is there a place, shady or not, to watch some of these shows (Blind Date Hotel, Five Guys a Week etc) online?

I have checked BritBox and AcornTV, and for the most part they seem to try to keep it classy. Not for me) A friend watches a lot of BBC shows on RedditTV, but I get nervous about downloading random files.

Any other shows you may recommend? Also finished up watching maybe 1000 hours of Come Dine with Me on YouTube. English, Australian and South African Versions.

Who are the celebrities that Hollywood is working very hard to make stick in the public consciousness?

Are they classy, tacky, or fun? Do you or would you own one? What is their origin? Have you ever seen one outside of early 1970s American living rooms?

Will go down for the Gays....

We had Drew McIntyre winning the Big One like a true masc Top; the dark homoerotic ballet of Edge & Randy Orton; torture porn with poor twunk A.J. Styles in the clutches of Daddy Undertaker; John Cena having an identity crisis when forced back in his tiny trunks (and later Otis in even tinier gear) and having to hear Bray Wyatt singing Nikki Bella’s theme music; Braun Strowman taking punishment from a European threesome; Seth Rollins taking a beating in almost transparent sweated-through tights; and Kevin Owens moaning like a satisfied cockslut. Oh, and now Becky Lynch is pregnant so she gave her belt to Asuka, the Queen of Kabuki. We did it.

This morning before 11am I was food shopping at Citarella's on Broadway and saw Ms. King stocking up. I overheard her talking to one of the workers and she seemed genuinely nice. There is one line to check out (then you get to the next cashier) and she was 2 ahead of me. She was in the nicest of moods and small talking to everyone. She left with many bags so I am guessing she dropped an easy $400 on food. One of the workers carried out all the bags for her. Up close she looks wonderful and yes that is 100% a wig. She is 65. Her large LV bag is worth more than several month's of rent. Well done Gayle, you have a new fan!!!!!

H.G Carrillo, who claimed to be an exile from Havana, was actually Herman Carroll from Detroit.

From the Washington Post:

And this weekend, in his grief, he suddenly learned that his husband (true name Herman Glenn Carroll, it turns out) was not the childhood Cuban immigrant he claimed to be — that Hache’s personal origin story, which he shared publicly and with those close to him throughout his adult life, was an extension of his fiction, a product of imagination.

“It was a story he told me,” vanEngelsdorp said Saturday. He sighed and said: “I mean, he was a storyteller.” Even before Saturday, though, he had sensed that something undefinable about Carrillo remained a mystery to him. Last week, in the splendid disorder of the garden, vanEngelsdorp said: “Now that I’m looking at it with the eyes of someone who has to take it over, it really is an artistic expression. . . . Somehow, it exemplifies him. At first, you’re confused by it. Then you look at it, you watch it, and you get to know it — I mean, Hache was always a hard guy to know — and when you take it all in, it’s beautiful chaos.”

After this profile of Carrillo, who was chairman of the literary PEN/Faulkner Foundation, first appeared Friday on The Washington Post’s website, his sister and a niece contacted the newspaper and vanEngelsdorp to correct the record.

The story initially said that Carrillo was 7 when his father, a physician; his mother, an educator; and their four children fled Fidel Castro’s island in 1967, arriving in Michigan by way of Spain and Florida. It said he was something of a prodigy as a classical pianist when he was growing up, and, by his late teens, was performing at venues in the United States and abroad, before he lost interest and stopped abruptly.

We've all seen beautiful people get ahead in Hollywood because of their good looks, but once you got past their pretty facade, who has surprised you with genuine talent? Some never got the respect they deserved, some got it years later. Maybe it was just one role that changed your mind. But who is your choice, and why? One of mine, Farrah in The Burning Bed. She finally showed some depth.

I just rewatched the ‘Scary Island’ episodes of RHONY. Kelly Bensimon unquestionably is mentally ill to an extent more serious than I remembered.

I was searching online to see if anyone speculated about what specifically is wrong with her and I found this blog by a non-clinician who has a psychology degree, and who does armchair diagnoses of the women that I think are interesting:

—Kelly Bensimon: Schizoaffective disorder with psychotic episodes

—Bethenny Frankel: OCD

—Jill Zarin: Classic narcissist (socially predatory and parasitic)

—LuAnn DeLesseps: Compensatory narcissistic personality disorder that over time has led to delusions of grandeur

—Ramona Singer: Cyclothymia—quasi-manic depressive but without losing touch with reality as would occur in a true manic state

I enjoyed Hollywood on Netflix, but some of the casting....I couldn’t even listen to McGuinness! She sounded like she was doing an awful skit for SNL or something. Carol Burnett was a less campy Scarlett.

I was out the other day at Volkspark and wow....so much sex everywhere. With baths and bars closed the men of Berlin are back in the parks. In the past I have seen that things may go on discreetly but nothing like this. Covid orgy. At least the air is cleaner.

Seriously, she’s just so fake. Watching this crap fest now and she and Tamra ruined it. Shannon especially is ON 24/7 and honey, you ain’t funny and your quips aren’t funny.

You suck and drain the show.

You’re loud. You’re a bully. You’re still fat. But, most of all, you’re fake as fuck. (Worse Tuan LuAnn!)

Some of the ads show great, innovative products are suspiciously cheap prices. Others show interesting products that can be found on Amazon cheaper.

I’m often tempted to buy something advertised in Facebook but figure the ads are lying most of the time.

Anyone have any experience with these?

Was there any fucking reason why this bitch had to share this? Seriously.

In 1990, People covered a wonderfully bitchy night with Naomi Campbell, Linda Evangelista and Christy Turlington, which is in People's archives.

I'm intrigued with this guy. Devoted and beloved USMC, never married, slim and trim, gorgeous little body and SO private. He seemed to surround himself with gay assistants and aides. Was he just empathetic to them? Lots of rumors about his exploits when younger, especially wandering around drunk in partial uniform but nothing concrete. Anybody know anything?

Well? Would he? Seems damned if you do, damned if you don’t.

No video games! Just the regular kind you have to sit down at a table an play with other humans. I used to play them a lot when I was younger but then I kind of got out of the habit. In the past couple of years I've joined several local board game Meetup groups (including one LGBT one) and it's a lot of fun. Of course now with the lockdown, we're playing more "virtual" games online, but fortunately there are a lot of sites out there (Yucata, Board Game Arena, Tabletopia, Steam, Boites a Jeux) where you can play. Is anyone else playing online? Do you have any favorite games?

I just saw him while flipping through the channels. Whoa, wait a minute...butterflies!

I’m smitten. He’s just my type. And I’m 34! Why am I like this?! Why?! WHY?!?!?!

Forget politics. Our chemistry will somehow transcend it. I can’t help it. The heart wants what the heart wants. Help me DL!!

I'm at Costco and I overheard some Hispanics speaking Spanish to each other.

OUT OF CURIOSITY?

Today at work, this grade-A asshole made an extremely unexpected— and seemingly abrupt— announcement that he’s leaving for another position.

He’s only been with the company three years. The new positions is a lateral move at best, possibly even a slight demotion.

He’s a nightmare to work with. But, I’ve kept my mouth shut about his assholery because he seemed to be adored by most.

What do you make of it? Weird that it’s happening during lockdown, don’t you think?

68% of Americans feel that selfishness describes Americans well--28% saying very well. As someone whose parents immigrated from a developing country, I am proud to be an American. But the selfishness of Americans does really stand out to me. It's almost as if Americans view selfishness as a value rather than a vice. What are some things that stand out to you about Americans and selfish behavior?

Post any updates or first hand experiences about Covid-19 related stuff, including lock down.

Assuming they're allowed to reopen already, do any gay bars actually EXIST near Cape Canaveral/Cocoa/Titusville? Or do guys in Brevard County have to drive to Orlando or Daytona to go out?

A little after 8 a.m. on July 20, 2001, a couple arriving for an appointment opened an unlocked front door at an office in the Florida panhandle town of Fort Walton Beach and discovered a woman lying on the floor, dead. Her name was Lori Kaye Klausutis and she was just 28.

The police said they found no signs of foul play. The medical examiner concluded her lonely death was an accident. She had fainted, the result of a heart condition, and hit her head on a desk, he said.

Now, nearly 20 years later, Klausutis’s death has captured the attention of the country’s most prominent purveyor of conspiracy theories — the president of the United States — who has without evidence speculated that she might have been murdered and that the case should be reopened.

The reason for President Trump’s fixation: At the time of her death, Klausutis was working for a Republican congressman from Pensacola named Joe Scarborough — the same Scarborough who today, as host of MSNBC’s Morning Joe, is a fierce critic of Trump and has in recent weeks decried the president’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic as a failure.

What is with this trend of good looking, attractive young white men dating ugly Asian chicks? I live in Austin and I saw three such pairings today. What the hell?

Dragon ladies never seem to want their own men, why? These bitches need to stop stealing white men!

It seems like one of the professions where people put out their best work the older they get.

Also, why are there so many sluts in politics and the news now too? Sometimes watching TV I think we’re being run by a fucking sorority now.

Twenty large chains received more than $5 billion in federal grants even while sitting on more than $100 billion in cash.

A multibillion-dollar institution in the Seattle area invests in hedge funds, runs a pair of venture capital funds and works with elite private equity firms like the Carlyle Group.

But it is not just another deep-pocketed investor hunting for high returns. It is the Providence Health System, one of the country’s largest and richest hospital chains. It is sitting on nearly $12 billion in cash, which it invests, Wall Street-style, in a good year generating more than $1 billion in profits. And this spring, Providence received at least $509 million in government funds, one of many wealthy beneficiaries of a federal program that is supposed to prevent health care providers from capsizing during the coronavirus pandemic.

With states restricting hospitals from performing elective surgery and other nonessential services, their revenue has shriveled. The Department of Health and Human Services has disbursed $72 billion in grants since April to hospitals and other health care providers through the bailout program, which was part of the CARES Act economic stimulus package. The department plans to eventually distribute more than $100 billion more.

So far, the riches are flowing in large part to hospitals that had already built up deep financial reserves to help them withstand an economic storm. Smaller, poorer hospitals are receiving tiny amounts of federal aid by comparison.

Twenty large recipients, including Providence, have received a total of more than $5 billion in recent weeks, according to an analysis of federal data by Good Jobs First, a research group. Those hospital chains were already sitting on more than $108 billion in cash, according to regulatory filings and the bond-rating firms S&P Global and Fitch. A Providence spokeswoman said the grants helped make up for losses from the coronavirus.

“The Hunger Games: Mockingjay — Part 2” rolls into theaters this weekend, and if there’s one thing I’m not looking forward to it’s the inevitable “I liked the movie, but it wasn’t as good as the book” I’ll hear after the film.

You know how the traits in other people that make you the maddest are usually the ones that remind you about a part of yourself you don’t like? The “I liked the movie, but it wasn’t as good as the book” shtick is that for me. If I have a relationship with a book and it’s poorly done on the big screen, on some level, I’m galled. But on the other hand, not every movie can be “Watchmen,” and by now, I should be able to accept the nuance of adaptation, being an adult and all. On the whole, I’d argue that haggling over which is better, the book or the movie, is mostly pointless.

The operative word being “mostly.” Because there are extreme cases where book-lover rage is justifiable. Which cases? I pulled the Metacritic critic ratings of the top 500 movies on IMDb tagged with the “based on novel” keyword.1 I then2 found the average user rating of the source novel for each film on Goodreads, a book rating and review site.3 In the end, there was complete data for 382 films and source novels.

"On the surface, we looked like an irrational match. I was much older and she was an adopted kid"

Woody Allen has defended his marriage to Soon-Yi Previn, acknowledging the 35-year age gap and untraditional circumstances.

In an interview with the Mail on Sunday, Allen spoke of his relationship with Previn, who is the adopted daughter of his former wife Mia Farrow.

“I admit, it didn’t make sense when our relationship started,” Allen said. “On the surface, we looked like an irrational match. I was much older and she was an adopted kid.

“It looked to the outside world that it was an exploitative situation – that I would exploit her as an older predatory male, and she would exploit me for whatever I had. That was never the case. In the past, I had always gone out with actresses, but for whatever inexplicable reason, with Soon-Yi it worked.”

Allen continued, sharing his thoughts on relationships and specifically infidelity. "My view was always that most relationships don’t work, which is why people have affairs,” he said.

“But then you can marry, divorce, marry, divorce, or you can go out with 56 people and if you are lucky you might find the right one, and that happened to me.”

Woody Allen’s latest film, A Rainy Day in New York, has topped global box office statistics with its international release. The film has earned approximately $20.9m (£17.1m) so far after being released in South Korea and other countries. It will be released in the UK on June 5.

Hello, DLers. I'm proud to announce Camp Datalounge (or Camp DL). Combining the best features of a good, old fashioned YMCA summer camp and an informal nudist retreat, Camp DL is a new experiment in summertime relaxation for the older gay man who just can't stay away from his favorite gossip site and wants to relax in the company of other older gay men. If you're tired of going to the Pines or Provincetown, or even Ogunquit, every year (to name only a few!) just to be silently judged and blown-off by more twinks than you ever thought could exist in one place, Camp DL might be for you!

Since Camp DL is still in the planning stages (we hope to open locations sometimes next year), we'd like to know what features our Counselors could provide to give you, the average DLer, the most satisfying summer possible.

More discussion about life, art, nature, and pets...

Does he? I don’t see it, but he is handsome.

Name them!

I don’t understand the world’s fascination with this fellow. He looks like a sickly orphan child. Why do young White girls worship the ugliest little thing that gets pushed in their faces.?

Hitch up your caftans, ladies, and head on down!

Can I get a collective EWWW! from the millennials?!

Good for him for being honest and living the life he should truly be living!

The poor boy looks perpetually hungry

The irony.

I kind of liked her being Hermione but I can’t stand her as an actress.

Awful in The Bling Ring, I slept in the cinema watching the Beauty and the Beast (first and only time that has happened to me) and obviously the worst at Little Women.

How is she so likeable? She makes good box offices. I understand that some mediocre actors are popular like Tom Cruise or Angelina, but Watson is getting like worse in every film she is in.

Is anybody else binge watching old Disney Channel shows like, That’s So Raven or Lizzie McGuire?

This show stunk!

More mugging than Central Park in the 1980s.

They just talked about it on the Today Show.

Can you believe it?

Sviatoslav Richter is to many people the pianist of the century.

He had one of the widest repertoires in the business, was a friend of Prokofiev and played at Stalin's funeral in 1953.

Richter was born in Ukraine in 1915, the son of a German professional pianist. He claims he never studied, but simply started playing by launching in to a Chopin Nocturne.

At the age of 15, he worked as an accompanist at the Odessa Opera, where he was often paid in bags of potatoes. He studied with Heinrich Neuhaus at the Moscow Conservatory, and at 19 gave his first public recital.

His reputation was made in 1941 with his first performance of one of Tchaikovsky's piano concerti.

My gay friend was talking about her this evening. He actually thought I'd know who this is. I looked her up. She's some obscure French actress with a brief career, died young in 1959.

Then I realized if anybody knew about her, it would be you bitches at Datalounge.

Probably best to leave them alone during the pandemic!

Animal research raises the possibility that there may also be a link between abuse of nitrites and the development and progression of infectious diseases and tumors. The research indicates that inhaling nitrites depletes many cells in the immune system and impairs mechanisms that fight infectious diseases.

1. COINTELPRO Techniques for dilution, misdirection and control of a internet forum

There are several techniques for the control and manipulation of a internet forum no matter what, or who is on it. We will go over each technique and demonstrate that only a minimal number of operatives can be used to eventually and effectively gain a control of a 'uncontrolled forum.'

Technique #1 - 'FORUM SLIDING'

If a very sensitive posting of a critical nature has been posted on a forum - it can be quickly removed from public view by 'forum sliding.' In this technique a number of unrelated posts are quietly prepositioned on the forum and allowed to 'age.' Each of these misdirectional forum postings can then be called upon at will to trigger a 'forum slide.' The second requirement is that several fake accounts exist, which can be called upon, to ensure that this technique is not exposed to the public. To trigger a 'forum slide' and 'flush' the critical post out of public view it is simply a matter of logging into each account both real and fake and then 'replying' to prepositined postings with a simple 1 or 2 line comment. This brings the unrelated postings to the top of the forum list, and the critical posting 'slides' down the front page, and quickly out of public view. Although it is difficult or impossible to censor the posting it is now lost in a sea of unrelated and unuseful postings. By this means it becomes effective to keep the readers of the forum reading unrelated and non-issue items.

Technique #2 - 'CONSENSUS CRACKING'

A second highly effective technique (which you can see in operation all the time at www.abovetopsecret.com) is 'consensus cracking.' To develop a consensus crack, the following technique is used. Under the guise of a fake account a posting is made which looks legitimate and is towards the truth is made - but the critical point is that it has a VERY WEAK PREMISE without substantive proof to back the posting. Once this is done then under alternative fake accounts a very strong position in your favour is slowly introduced over the life of the posting. It is IMPERATIVE that both sides are initially presented, so the uninformed reader cannot determine which side is the truth. As postings and replies are made the stronger 'evidence' or disinformation in your favour is slowly 'seeded in.' Thus the uninformed reader will most like develop the same position as you, and if their position is against you their opposition to your posting will be most likely dropped. However in some cases where the forum members are highly educated and can counter your disinformation with real facts and linked postings, you can then 'abort' the consensus cracking by initiating a 'forum slide.'

Technique #3 - 'TOPIC DILUTION'

Topic dilution is not only effective in forum sliding it is also very useful in keeping the forum readers on unrelated and non-productive issues. This is a critical and useful technique to cause a 'RESOURCE BURN.' By implementing continual and non-related postings that distract and disrupt (trolling ) the forum readers they are more effectively stopped from anything of any real productivity. If the intensity of gradual dilution is intense enough, the readers will effectively stop researching and simply slip into a 'gossip mode.' In this state they can be more easily misdirected away from facts towards uninformed conjecture and opinion. The less informed they are the more effective and easy it becomes to control the entire group in the direction that you would desire the group to go in. It must be stressed that a proper assessment of the psychological capabilities and levels of education is first determined of the group to determine at what level to 'drive in the wedge.' By being too far off topic too quickly it may trigger censorship by a forum moderator.

Cast: Melissa Howard, Kelley Limp, Danny Roberts, Jamie Murray, Julie Stoffer, Matt Smith, David Broom,

The full season is available to watch on Youtube. The editing is the most outdated thing about it, and the ideals and personalities of the cast aren't much different at all from what you'd find with this current generation. It's extremely entertaining and earned its place as one of the best seasons of the franchise.

BARK ONCE FOR NO AND TWICE FOR YES

HONOLULU, Hawaii (HawaiiNewsNow) - On this Memorial Day, as the nation honors fallen service members, some soldiers could be in trouble for breaking all kinds of rules at the beach.

Just after 10:30 p.m. Sunday, Honolulu police responded to Kaena Point State Park and found close to 200 people crowded around a bonfire Mokuleia Beach.

Social media videos show wooden pallets being burned on the sand. Open fires on Hawaii beaches are illegal.

And that wasn’t the only law being broken. The party that had been advertised on social media was in blatant violation of the state’s emergency order restricting large gatherings amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Police sources say the majority of people who showed up were members of the military.

No one was issued a citation, but before they could leave Honolulu police and state conservation officers made partygoers carry out what was carried in.

“I think it’s great that they actually held these people to it. And made them clean up their mess,” said beachgoer Stephen Jackson.

Others agreed.

Ryan Roberts arrived at the park around 7 a.m. Monday morning.

“I had absolutely no clue there was a party here,” he said. “There’s no rubbish on the beach.”

Officials from the state Department of Land and Natural resources say it was the third party at the area known as “Big Camp Site” this weekend.

On Friday and Saturday, revelers left a fire pit littered with rubbish and didn’t even bother taking down their campsite. Down the road at Waimea Bay, large crowds gathered Saturday afternoon.

Videos submitted to user HungryHungryHawaiian on Instagram looked pre-pandemic. Everyone packed in tight together, leaving the beach trashed.

“If they’re infected all they have to do is be talking,” said epidemiologist DeWolfe Miller.

He says it’s this kind of activity that could trigger a new wave of the coronavirus in the islands.

“We’ve worked so hard to get here,” said Miller. “And we’re going to sacrifice it because of some people who are very self-centered and selfish.”

In the meantime, military officials say they’ve seen the videos circulating online and are investigating. Now they’re reminding all service members that violating the state’s emergency rules “can result in punitive action."

I am an American Born Jew who has always been raised to believe in Israel, that Jerusalem is the Holy Land and all should be done to keep the small state going. But the last few years I have been confused by the politics, the scandals and corruption we've heard about, and Israel's embrace of Trump. I thought Netanyahu had been indicted for corruption, embezzlement, and a new leader was to be voted in.

Could someone with a confident handle on the situation please explain it to me. I especially welcome any international DL'ers reading this. Any DL'ers in Israel?

Thanks.

Just a year after a divorce which cost Iron Maiden frontman Bruce Dickinson $84.3 million, his ex-wife Paddy Bowden has been found dead in her London apartment.

Paddy Bowden, the estranged wife of Iron Maiden frontman Bruce Dickinson, has been found dead in her London apartment.

Police were called to her flat in Chiswick, west London, around 10am local time on Monday morning.

Just last November it was announced that Dickinson and Bowden were splitting after 29 years of marriage, with the divorce settlement costing Dickinson $A84.3 million.

Dickinson, 61, moved to Paris where he now lives with his new partner, glamorous fitness instructor Leana Dolci.

In a statement, he said, “This is a terrible tragedy which appears to be a tragic accident.”

“Our children Austin, Griffin and Kia and I are devastated. Out of respect for Paddy we won’t be making any further comment at this hugely difficult and painful time for our family.”

Bowden was pronounced dead on arrival, according to the London Ambulance Service.

“We were called at 9:42am today to reports of a person unwell in Barrowgate Road, Chiswick, a spokesperson said.

“We sent two ambulance crews to the scene – the first one arriving within two minutes. Sadly, the patient had already died.”

Dickinson and Bowden married in 1990 after two years together.

The New York City Commission on Human Rights is launching a massive effort to combat anti-Asian bias as reports of COVID-19-related discrimination skyrocket.

"This type of discrimination and harassment is not something that happens out of nowhere in a pandemic, this is based in deep-seated miseducation and racism," said Carmelyn Malalis, the commissioner of the New York City Commission on Human Rights. "I know that people doubt that there is any such thing as anti-Asian discrimination, and people have said that to my face."

"People have to understand that this is not something that we are making up and they have to see racism for what it really is," she added. "They think that signaling out an entire people for a pandemic -- that’s not discrimination or racism."

Malalis said that claims of anti-Asian discrimination and harassment to her office skyrocketed amid the coronavirus pandemic. From Feb. 1 through May 15, 2019, they received 11 such complaints. For the same time period this year, they have received 133 such complaints.

Explosive new claims are set to air in a Jeffrey Epstein documentary on Netflix with witnesses and victims speaking out against him.

A Netflix documentary series into the abuse allegations against Jeffrey Epstein is set to air explosive new claims against the disgraced billionaire.

From allegations of importing 12-year-old girls to be used as sex slaves, to a witness claiming to have seen Prince Andrew “groping” a young Virginia Roberts, the four-part mini series delves into the horrific claims surrounding Epstein.

Netflix revealed on Twitter last month that it would be airing Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich, based on the 2016 James Patterson book.

“The series exposes a horrifying story of relentless manipulation and sex trafficking,” the streaming service said on its “See What’s Next” account.

“Epstein’s survivors serve as the series’ pre-eminent voices, providing powerful testimonials about their experiences and inspiration in their resilience.”

The series is set to be released this week. Picture: Netflix The series is set to be released this week. Picture: NetflixSource:Netflix

The documentary makers spoke to Steve Scully, 70, who used to work as Epstein’s phone and internet specialist.

In the series, which is set to be aired this week, Mr Scully claims he saw Prince Andrew kissing Virginia Roberts, now Virginia Giuffre, on Epstein’s home on a private Caribbean island.

Ms Giuffre, 36, has been one of the disgraced billionaire’s most vocal accusers, claiming she was recruited as an underage sex slave and forced to have sex with Epstein and his high profile friends, including Prince Andrew, when she was just 16.

The prince has always strenuously denied he had sex with Ms Giuffre, and said he has no recollection of meeting her.

During an interview for the series, Mr Scully claims he saw Prince Andrew with a young blonde in a bikini by the pool on Little St James island.

“It was probably around 2004, I saw Prince Andrew. He was at the pool. He was with at that time an unknown girl to me,” Mr Scully said.

“She was young, She didn’t have any top on. They were engaged in foreplay. He was grabbing her, and grinding against her.”

Only watch if you are prepared for an overload of cuteness

“The Last Dance” was largely well-received as an entertaining, welcome trip down sports memory lane at a much-needed time.

But it had its fair share of critics pointing to Michael Jordan’s heavy hand in shaping how he was portrayed — that it wasn’t a shining beacon of balanced documentary filmmaking.

Count Horace Grant in the latter camp. Jordan’s teammate on three NBA championships lit into him in a radio interview Tuesday, calling him a “snitch,” accusing him of lying and challenging him to “settle this like men.”

Grant’s primary point of contention appears to be Jordan blaming him for leaking locker-room information to author Sam Smith for his 1992 exposé “The Jordan Rules.”

But his beef doesn’t stop there. Grant took issue with the documentary’s portrayal of Scottie Pippen, Jordan’s treatment of him personally and his bullying of teammates. He laid it all out in an interview with Kap and Co. on ESPN 1000 in Chicago.

‘We can settle it another way’

"Lie, lie, lie,” Grant said, per an ESPN transcript. “If MJ had a grudge with me, let’s settle this like men. Let’s talk about it. Or we can settle it another way. But yet and still, he goes out and puts this lie out that I was the source behind [the book].

“Sam and I have always been great friends. We’re still great friends. But the sanctity of that locker room, I would never put anything personal out there.”

Grant continued that Jordan used “The Last Dance” to air out grievances while questioning the fairness of the “so-called documentary.”

“It’s only a grudge, man,” Grant said. “I’m telling you, it was only a grudge. And I think he proved that during this so-called documentary. When if you say something about him, he’s going to cut you off, he’s going to try to destroy your character.”

Grant said Jordan was the real “snitch,” chastising him for his statements early in the documentary pointing to cocaine use among Bulls players when he was a rookie.

“And my point is, he said that I was the snitch, but yet and still after 35 years he brings up his rookie year going into one of his teammate’s rooms and seeing coke and weed and women,” Grant said.

“My point is: Why the hell did he want to bring that up? What’s that got to do with anything? I mean, if you want to call somebody a snitch, that’s a damn snitch right there.”

Grant also took issue with how “The Last Dance” portrayed Pippen. The documentary went heavy into examining Pippen’s contract conflict with the Bulls in 1997, with Jordan calling Pippen “selfish” for his negotiation tactics that saw him delay a medical procedure.

The documentary also featured Pippen’s refusal to enter the final seconds of a playoff game against the New York Knicks when Phil Jackson drew up a shot for Toni Kukoc instead of him. That incident happened while Jordan was playing baseball. Grant said that the players who were on the team at the time made peace with Pippen and questioned why Jordan even brought it up.

“MJ wasn’t even on the team,” Grant said. “Why was that in there? ... We go on to take the Knicks to seven games. It was over. Why bring that up? That’s my question to everybody out there who’s listening.”

Grant also criticized Jordan’s treatment of teammates. He said he never backed down to Jordan’s tactics but believes that Jordan’s behavior in the locker room and on the practice court was out of line. Jordan’s repeated berating of Scott Burrell was featured heavily in “The Last Dance.”

“He felt that he could dominate me, but that was sadly mistaken,” Grant said. “Because whenever he went at me, I went at him right back. But in terms of Will Perdue, Steve Kerr and the young man, Scott Burrell, that was heartbreaking.”

Jordan and Grant may have shared one of the greatest runs in sports history together. But Grant clearly left with some scars that were reopened by watching “The Last Dance” along with the rest of us.

And 27 years after last playing with Jordan, Grant sounds ready to fight.

Have you guys seen it? I absolutely loved it! Haley Bennett is so underrated, which I don’t understand considering she is not only talented but also pretty. The first time I saw her was in “The girl on the train” and I think she stole the show from Emily Blunt.

I sent a “Hey” message to a hot guy on Grindr. I’m not hooking up during quarantine, but I’m trying to set up a fuck buddy for when it’s safe to start hooking up again. This guy immediately stated that he was an escort. Now, I would never hire someone for sex but I was really kind of curious how much they charge so I said “Rates.” He replied “160.” I got nervous that I had done something illegal just by inquiring about that so I blocked him. Then I unblocked him so I could back to the conversation and state that I was simply curious and not actually interested. However, after the unblock, he didn’t show up in my messages. So it was like his profile had disappeared. Maybe, I’m not sure. Or maybe he really is an escort and got freaked out and deleted his profile. It’s unclear.

Did I do anything illegal by just asking what his rates are? There was no discussion of sex acts or anything. Just a back-and-forth of essential four one-word messages.

All of these cable networks are just rehashing what we already know, stirring up vitriol on both sides. I cannot stand listening to the same claims being regurgitated day after day.

Crew members from Ellen DeGeneres’ long-running daytime talk show are distressed and outraged over their treatment from top producers amid the coronavirus pandemic, numerous insiders affiliated with the series told Variety.

The core stage crew for “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” consisting of more than 30 employees, received no written communication about the status of their working hours, pay, or inquiries about their mental and physical health from producers for over a month, said two sources, both of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity. Higher-ups in production would occasionally answer phone calls but reveal little, added one of the sources. The crew was further incensed by the show’s recent hire of an outside, non-union tech company to help DeGeneres tape remotely from her home in California.

When production executives finally did weigh in, nearly all crew members were told last week to brace for a 60% reduction in pay, even as the show continues to air, according to sources close to the matter.

Confounded, the “Ellen” crew sought information from colleagues on similar shows, many of whom had opposite experiences from theirs, said sources.

“Jimmy Kimmel Live!” stage hands were paid from host Kimmel’s own pocket during initial COVID-19 shutdowns, two insiders familiar with that set told Variety, and since returning to the air network ABC is paying their full rates. “Last Week Tonight with John Oliver,” “Full Frontal with Samantha Bee,” and Showtime’s “Desus & Mero” have also all had transparent communication and are paying full rates, sources said. Spokespersons for those individual shows declined to comment on the matter.

An alligator rumored to have once belonged to Adolf Hitler has died at quite a remarkably old age.

The reptile -- who goes by Saturn -- recently passed away in the care of the Moscow Zoo, which he called home since the 1940s after he was discovered by British soldiers and gifted to the facility shortly thereafter ... once Germany suffered defeat in WWII, of course.

Saturn is actually said to have survived a bombing at the Berlin Zoo back in 1943 -- where he had been living after being shipped there from America in the mid-'30s -- and somehow lived among the ruins until he was found again in 1946. After that, Russia was his new home.

For some reason ... rumors swirled in Moscow that the alligator might've once been part of Hitler's personal collection of exotic animals. The Moscow Zoo says it became an urban legend but doesn't elaborate on why something like that might've even been thought.I

Whatevs ... the scaly creature lived out the rest of its days in Moscow's care, and apparently -- he was a very good, but also cantankerous boy. Of the animal, the Zoo writes ... "He was fussy about food and loved being massaged with a brush. If he didn’t like something, he would gnaw on the concrete decorations." He had a diet of rabbits, rats and fish.

Now, the Zoo doesn't confirm whether the Hitler story is true or not -- the theory could never be proven -- but they do defend Saturn's rep by saying ... regardless of who he might've belonged to, an animal's an animal, and shouldn't be judged by any human action.

The alligator was 84.

RIP?

A poster on another thread the reason he didn't find the beauty of one guy appealing because of the following features which reminds him of lower class "even though he's in the shower, it looks like his skin is greasy and full of grime that's been there for years. His tattoos don't help. The combination of beady eyes, wide nose and thick lips together make me think of the lower classes. If he had one of those features alone, I wouldn't think that. It's the combination that does it." Would you date a lower class man? I mean it really depends. If he had great attributes, I would.

Here's the following situations in which I would date a lower class man. He was wealthy but has fallen on hard times but has the ability to bounce back. He had lower class roots and/or is quick-thinking, I would take him. And finally if we simply do well together, if our personality are harmonious, then why the heck not.

if not, anyone at least know what it was about?

The novel coronavirus seems to be more deadly for men. But in many other ways, women are bearing the brunt of this pandemic. From a spike in domestic violence and restricted access to family-planning services to disproportionate economic impact, the lockdown measures put in place to stop the outbreak are hurting women and their basic rights a lot more than men. Previous epidemics of Ebola and Zika have resulted in major setbacks for women and girls in the regions most affected by the outbreaks -- and experts and activists are warning the same thing is happening globally right now.

A CNN analysis earlier this year found that in the countries for which data was available, men were 50% more likely than women to die after being diagnosed with Covid-19. But experts say focusing purely on health data is dangerous.

(Bloomberg) -- India is preparing for what could be one of the world’s most lavish weddings, a spectacle that could even put the fictional nuptials in "Crazy Rich Asians" to shame.

On Wednesday, Asia’s richest man -- oil-and-telecom tycoon Mukesh Ambani -- is scheduled to give away his daughter Isha to billionaire Ajay Piramal’s son, Anand. There have been a wide range of figures for how much the week-long extravaganza will cost. People familiar with the planning estimated the expense at about $100 million, while a person close to the family said the amount is not more than $15 million. The people asked not to be identified speaking on a private matter.

Invitees to the pre-wedding festivities, in the central Indian lake city of Udaipur, range from international and local celebrities such as Beyonce, Nick Jonas and Shah Rukh Khan, to politicians like Hillary Clinton and business tycoons including Henry Kravis, according to people familiar with the matter. The guest list is so long that the Ambanis and Piramals have taken over at least five five-star hotels nearby, and a war room has been set up in Mumbai to manage logistics, they said. According to local media reports, more than 100 chartered flights will fly guests to and from Udaipur’s Maharana Pratap Airport.

As gratitude to the city of Udaipur, the Ambanis donated enough food to feed 5,100 people three meals a day for four days, and set up a bazaar to showcase 108 traditional Indian paintings, pottery and other art from local artisans, according to a statement from a family representative.

The main ceremony will be held at the patriarch’s home, the 27-story Antilia palace in Mumbai, and post-wedding events will be held in the city.

For the chairman of Reliance Industries Ltd., who overtook Jack Ma this year as Asia’s wealthiest man, Isha will be the first of his children to wed. After the festivities, the newlyweds are poised to move in to their $64-million diamond-themed mansion at the Gulita building in Mumbai, according to one of the people.

Representatives for Reliance and Piramal Enterprises Ltd. declined to comment.

They will be open nationwide this weekend for services.

Tesla and SpaceX chief Elon Musk and singer Grimes have tweaked their baby's famed name after California officials noted it didn't comply with state health codes.

In a series of Instagram comments on Sunday, Grimes revealed to her followers that the couple had slightly changed their son's name from "X Æ A-12" to "X Æ A-Xii."

"Roman numerals," she explained. "Looks better tbh ... one dash is allowed."

After the duo announced the name on Twitter following the baby boy's birth on May 4, the state of California indicated that the unusual name isn't permissible.

"A name like 'X Æ A-12' would not be allowed," Matt Conens, of the Office of Public Affairs of the California Department of Public Health, wrote in an email to USA TODAY. "Vital records must be completed with the 26 alphabetical characters of the English language and appropriate punctuation such as hyphens, apostrophes, periods, and commas."

It's unclear if the adjusted name meets state law; USA TODAY has reached out to the couple's representatives for details.

Grimes previously revealed the methodology behind the name included "X, the unknown variable," "Æ, my elven spelling of Ai (love &/or Artificial intelligence)" and "A-12 = precursor to SR-17 (our favorite aircraft). No weapons, no defenses, just speed. Great in battle, but non-violent."

How are the two referring to their uniquely-named kid? One Instagram follower asked if she and Musk called him "X" or “Æ," pronounced "Ash."

"He has many names," Grimes wrote.

He said too bad. I got off and he watched me walk to my door so he knows where I live. I should have went to another door but I was nervous and panicking and didn’t think. I made a show of yelling out “hey” when I entered my place but I was scared. Luckily I gathered my wits, so dropped my keys just as I was opening the door, and swanned into a very low bend so my lace babydoll nightgown slid off the immense white mounds of my ass-checks and down over my back rolls, to halt around my neck. He was big and scary and I don’t like to fight. Do you think he’ll become a solution to my quarantine problem? What should I do?

Lisa Kudrow is in it!

For me, it’s a three way tie between Alex Legend, Jay Smooth, and Ryan Driller.

What a difference, huh?

Ellen let all her people go without salary. Let’s all remember her tagline be kind to everyone.! So many of the celebrities just love to hear themselves talk

At least Andrew Jackson was actually from the frontier states.

But Trump is a wealthy New Yorker whose inner circle--Mnuchin, Barr, Kushner, and Cohen (before the fall)-- are all wealthy Jewish and Catholic New Yorkers,

Why do MAGAts unquestioningly believe that he is one of them and uniquely understands their pain

I was a fan of his short stories and novels in my teens (i.e., early 90s) but pretty much forgot about him, until YouTube recommended an old interview of his and I clicked it on a whim. Afterwards, I followed up with a few other interviews, some older and some more recent-ish. He seemed like a genuinely intelligent, thoughtful, enthusiastic and, overall, well put together man.

Based on more recent pictures, however, I thought that he must have been into hardcore drugs and fetish sex all his life. Then again, in his interviews he derided drug use to access the imagination several times. (Could have been bullshit, of course...) What happened to him? He was so handsome when he was younger!

I seem to remember that he moved to LA at some point, so surely some of you West Coast bitches must know more about what kind of guy he is. Spill!

Mine is Dr. Amy Bishop. BOOM BOOM BOOM!

Hasan Minhaj still has much to learn, and his gay fans are more than happy to teach him.

The host of the Netflix series Patriot Act With Hasan Minhaj recently sat down for Buzzfeed to read your thirstiest tweets, some of which are too filthy for him to finish.

“I just wanna ride Hasan Minhaj’s dick off into the sunset,” wrote one male admirer, causing Minhaj to throw the printed tweet on the floor in embarrassment.

“Hasan makes my bussy quiver!” tweeted another. “So fucking sexy.”

I never knew seals are such gentle souls.

Forget saying what scum they are. We all know that? What are the ways to counter that is the, real question.

A doctor. Dad is Indian, Mom is Irish. He seems really intelligent, and really attractive. And he seems to be handling the pandemic better than Trump. He has a boyfriend also in the medical field.

Homo bottoms, please post.

mods just put subscriber only on the last thread for whatever reason even though it hasn't been active that much lately

Something nice to think about.

Austin Norman

This is gonna turn ugly fast!

Cute.

Do you ever wear one in public just walking around?

The backyard fowl are at the center of a recent salmonella outbreak that's infected 97 people in 28 states, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. A third of the sick are children under 5.

Among the CDC's guidelines for preventing future infection -- "Don't kiss or snuggle backyard poultry."

Sure, planting a peck on your baby chick's beak may sound sweet, if not a bit sharp. But chicks and ducks that seem healthy can harbor Salmonella bacteria, and it can live in their environments, too, the CDC said.

It's the second time within a year that the CDC's pleaded with the public to end the snuggles. In a salmonella outbreak in September 2019, the agency issued the same advice -- and during that outbreak, more than 1,000 people were infected across 49 states

So, yeah. The kissing stuff is serious.

CNN link so can't post here

I'm this...Sicilian THING that's been going on for TWO THOUSAND YEARS!

Consider the past 4 years and the immense number of scandals. Hillary's poised stoicism and rhetorical clobbering had no effect on the pea-brained red and purple state voter. We know that's because she's a woman. Joe will still need to be as succinct with a more receptive audience and will have 4 years of material to work with. Of course this accountability dialogue will not be framed as the "Vote for me because I'm not Trump," criticism levied at Clinton.

What should his message be and how many of Trump's earlier gaffes and outrages should be recalled? I'm assuming pinning the 100k+ deaths squarely on Trump will be his prima materia, but he can't rest his argument on one thing the media talking heads will go back and forth on.

What are the top 5 or 10 things Joe should hone in at every given opportunity?

They actually tell her to get the FUCK OUT OF HERE.

First the lady can't pronounce her own son's name.

Ant-Knee!

Now the commercial is edited to end on that feared black lady disgust noise,

Hmmmm (with under-breath uprising emphasis on end of last sound)

Sizzle

43 and he's never been married.

What do we know about him?

We know John, Travis, and Dillon, but who is the fourth?

Titular Batwoman star Ruby Rose has decided to leave the CW series ahead of Season 2. The role will be recast.

“I have made the very difficult decision to not return to Batwoman next season,” Rose said in a statement. “This was not a decision I made lightly as I have the utmost respect for the cast, crew and everyone involved with the show in both Vancouver and in Los Angeles.”

Maybe I'll actually watch it now. She's undeniably attractive, but watching paint dry is more entertaining than her "acting". Is she finally over?

I wonder what the REAL story is.

Listening to her in some of the tweets and posting remembering her, I think, in retrospect, she was and is undervalued, underrated. Given her "odd" look and voice that could have been a classic jazz vocalist's, why wasn't she a gay icon? Or did I miss something. In any case, RIP to the back to black pain bearer.

What causes it? Insecurity?

Is it a deal breaker for you?

Love them! And she always looks happier when with him! They work well together. He seems very sweet.

Not long ago, many clubs catered to enthusiastic leathermen. But predatory property developers, changing attitudes to gender and the rise of rubber threaten the scene’s existence

They weren't expecting to flop out in public!

Agatha Christie has been subject to countless and continuing adaptations. That , in itself, is intriguing. But what is your favourite? For all the several attempts, I don’t think there is a consensus on the definitive adaptation.

On the poll i tried to include the most famous ones. Excluded the latest Murder on the Orient Express as I-think nobody liked it much.

My favorites are: And there were none (2015), Five Little Pigs (David Suchet), A Murcer is Announced (both tv versions are great), A Murder On Tne Orient Express (1974, for the scary intro and the boarding and Ingrid Bergman) and Evil Under the Sun (for Nicholas Clay’s bathing suit).

I loved seeing Marianne Faithfull high as a kite croak out a song. And man, Chevy Chase was a warm dish.

Will all the Evan Hansons be dating each other eventually?

Julia Roberts in Notting Hill played herself in all her glorious cuntiness.

It stars Christian Cooke, David Thewlis and Marcia Gay Harden.

Are we positive she was actually born female? She was far more masculine looking than Woolf even. In virtually ever photo I've ever seen of her, she absolutely looks like a man in drag.

The Joan Davis Show!

'I Married Joan'!

America's Favorite Comedy Show!

Starring America's Queen of Comedy ...

JOAN DAVIS!

As Mrs. Joan Stevens!

—

She made "Dr. William H. Cosby, PhD" or whatever it was seem modest.

And wasn't Lucille Ball firmly the TV "queen of comedy" and "I Love Lucy" the highest-rated comedy show at the time?

What's the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd thing that pops into your head when you read that name? Only a 1st thing is OK.

Love this!

I loved pot in my 20s. I didn't smoke during my early thirties, and recently though I'd try it again. (I am 36.) A few months ago I bought the Ghost Train Haze strain.

I've suddenly realized smoking is not the fun it used to be. The window between "not high enough" and "way too high" is very narrow, too narrow to be enjoyable. I got too high recently (after a couple of hits from a one hitter!) and completely freaked out. It was one of the worst mental experiences of my life. I thought I had split into two people.

This shit never happened in my 20s. Pot was enjoyable and made everything funny.

Has your experience with pot changed as you've gotten older?

Let’s talk HBCUs. First let’s rank them from best to worst. Everyone knows about Howard, Spelman & Morehouse. I want to hear about the Universities.

For the Young guys maybe too young for them to come out so what about two years time

Youtuber Amberlynn Reid (age 29) uploaded a new video on January 5 titled '572.4 pound' in the video she says that this is the most she ever weighed and want's to lose 127,4 pounds this year, and in the video she give 127 reasons why she wants to lose weight, such as:

- travel more - wants to lower the chance of getting diabetes - tired of being stared at in public - want's to be able to ride a bike again - want's to live longer

Amberlynn started her youtube channel back in 2013 as a weight loss channel. In the last couples of year she have gone thru many different types of diets but haven't been able to lose weight and instead gain roughly 200+ pound, hopefully this will be the year she will lose weight because she will fucking die if she won't..

DL, are you fat?

I don’t know why but he popped up on my “ForYou” page and I thought it was a guy mocking Repugs, so I clicked on the page, and nope, he is legit. He’s a hardcore Trumpster.

He was on live so I went in and started asking him why he supports a racist, homophobic piece of shit who is destroying the Country he claims to love. He kept telling me he wanted me to go on Instagram Live with him so we can debate for his followers. Lmao. I can’t.

He said Democrats are the real racists and homophobes, and they wanna keep gays and Black people down.

Is this really a lifestyle for young Millennials? Have they never heard of STIs? The cumdump's voice seems very masculine.

Btw, has anybody found him yet? Where is he?

MMPH... I couldn't care less about "The Amazing Race--Season 27". Viola Davis... you won, honey. SIT DOWN! I have no interest in identifying a model or discussing the nearly 50 year old movie; "Valley Of The Dolls". Jim Carrey, I'm sorry for your loss, but I couldn't care less... I like, "The Official Philadelphia Gay Bashing Thread", "Empire-Season 2" "Downton Abbey", and some others. I ADORE "Men Showing Affection To Each Other".

But... Jockstraps? Talking about jockstraps? Looking at HOT MEN and even women in jockstraps? NOW, you have my attention!!!

This thread is about jockstraps. Don't bring that other mess in here! It's a definitely Not Safe For Work (NSFW) thread, but I will respect others and not lead off with an image. Let's get to crackin' men!

"That's what she said" makes sense as a response to almost every statement in the English language.

Most versatile Dad joke ever?
