Ivanka is 'not sold' on Washington life and plans to 'review every six months' whether to return to NYC as it's claimed under-fire Jared is 'miserable' at the White House while Russia probe turns its glare on him

President Trump's daughter Ivanka reportedly 'likes' but does not 'love' DC She and her husband Jared Kushner have not made a long-term commitment to the White House The couple will consider every six months whether they will return to private life Kushner is reportedly 'miserable' because he has been unable to accomplish what he wants to under his father- in-law Trump He is also the most recent focus of the Russia probe as a conversation between him and Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak has come to light

Life in the White House has not gone as expected for power couple Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner.

The daughter of President Donald Trump is not sold on life in Washington, DC, according to sources who spoke with Politico.

And as she and her husband are finding they have been unable to do as much as they originally hoped, they have created a kind of exit-strategy.

Ivanka and Kushner will consider every six months whether they will return to New York City or stay in DC, according to The New York Times.

The paper also reported that Kushner has told friends he and Ivanka have not made a long-term commitment to the White House.

The couple are also renting the mansion where they are currently living in the Washington, DC, neighborhood of Kalorama.

Their decision to rent instead of buy gives them more freedom to return to their private lives in Manhattan.

But Trump's son-in-law has no intention of leaving soon, according to Politico.

The outlet has said the senior adviser to the President intends to focus on his Office of American Innovation since he and Ivanka returned early from the President's first trip abroad.

Associates of his have said he has appeared 'unhappy' and 'miserable' because he hasn't been able to accomplish all that he has wanted to under the President and that the dysfunction in the White House is unlikely to go away, Politico reported.

Those feelings were present even before he came under fire for his proposal to establish a back-channel connecting Trump's campaign and Russia in December, which came to light this week.

Now Kushner is the focus of the Russia scandal, since his December conversation with Russia's ambassador to the US, Sergey Kislyak.

Despite the negative attention, the President's son-in-law has said he does not plan on resigning.

About- you guessed it- BENGHAZI!!

Huffington Post for me.

I used to go several times a day. Now, I never go.

Things that ruined it:

1. The new format is shit;

2. Spam videos that auto-start and then stalk you as you scroll down the page;

3. "Gay Voices" that became "Queer Voices" to pander to the annoying Transgender World Police: and

4. All the fucking click-bait headlines. "You'll Never Guess Who Doesn't Look The Same Now!!!!!!"

Over them.

The University of California-Los Angeles is offering to pay students to serve as “Social Justice Advocates” who will “educate” their peers about “systems [of] oppression.”

The Social Justice Advocates program seeks students who want to help their classmates “navigate a world that operates on whiteness, patriarchy, and heteronormativity as the primary ideologies,” and comes with a quarterly stipend, the amount of which has yet to be determined.

“Social Justice Advocates will systems [of] oppression and how they intersect and build upon each other to maintain the status quo,” the description continues. “Most importantly individuals and the collective will be empowered through liberatory scholarship and practices and strengthening their emotional intelligence to create change within their spheres of influence.”

The application for the inaugural students asks aspiring Social Justice Advocates to explain their interest in social justice, list their preferred gender pronouns (such as “zi” and “hir”), and describe any experience they have in facilitating workshops on “social justice” issues.

Successful applicants will join the inaugural cohort of 8-10 Social Justice Advocates for the upcoming fall semester, during which time they are expected to commit three hours per week to their duties, which include weekly meetings and crafting presentations.

The program is funded through the Bruin Excellence & Student Transformation Grant Program (BEST), which receives funding from the university's Office of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion and from Gold Shield, Alumnae of UCLA.

Several workshops were preemptively created as part of a pilot program this year, including one addressing “Social Justice Myths,” which promises to discuss the “truths” behind topics such as “reverse racism, allyship, intersectionality, and LGBTQ rights” with the goal of “expanding the views of students and [promoting] empathy for marginalized communities through conversation.”

Another, called “All Aboard the Struggle Bus,” endeavors to teach students about the “unfathomable struggles” that minority students face “on a daily basis.”

A third workshop explores how people of color can “navigate desire and love” in a society “where ideals of beauty are based on Eurocentric standards,” asserting that “our most personal decisions hold political connotations whether we like it or not.”

Students who participated in the pilot program were ordered by their supervisor not to talk to Campus Reform, and to defer interview requests to the UCLA media department, which did not provide a response in time for publication.

"Tthe collective will be empowered through liberatory scholarship and practices and strengthening their emotional intelligence to create change within their spheres of influence.” Didn't that job used to be called the Red Guards?

Pathetic.

[quote] The lesson in almost all of these instances seems to be that enormous numbers of voters would rather elect an openly corrupt or mentally deranged Republican than vote for a Democrat. But nobody in the Democratic Party seems terribly worried about this.

[quote] Gianforte, Trump and Grimm are not exceptions. They're the rule in modern America, which in recent years has repeatedly demonstrated its willingness to vote for just about anybody not currently under indictment for serial murder, so long as that person is not a Democrat.

[quote] The Democrats are now hovering around 40 percent, just a hair over the Trump-tarnished Republicans, at 39 percent. Similar surveys have shown that despite the near daily barrage of news stories pegging the president as a bumbling incompetent in the employ of a hostile foreign power, Trump, incredibly, would still beat Hillary Clinton in a rematch today, and perhaps even by a larger margin than before.

[quote] According to legend, Democrats lose because of media bias, because of racism, because of gerrymandering, because of James Comey and because of Russia (an amazing 59 percent of Democrats still believe Russians hacked vote totals).

[quote]But the "deplorables" comment didn't just further alienate already lost Republican votes. It spoke to an internal sickness within the Democratic Party, which had surrendered to a negativistic vision of a hopelessly divided country.

[quote] Barack Obama, for all his faults, never gave in to that mindset. He continually insisted that the Democrats needed to find a way to reach lost voters. Even in the infamous "guns and religion" episode, this was so. Obama then was talking about the challenge the Democrats faced in finding ways to reconnect with people who felt ignored and had fled to "antipathy toward people who aren't like them" as a consequence. Even as he himself was the subject of vicious and racist rhetoric, Obama stumped in the reddest of red districts. In his post-mortem on the Trump-Clinton race, he made a point of mentioning this – that in Iowa he had gone to every small town and fish fry and VFW hall, and "there were some counties where I might have lost, but maybe I lost by 20 points instead of 50 points."

[quote] But "Republicans are bad" isn't a message or a plan, which is why the Democrats have managed the near impossible: losing ground overall during the singular catastrophe of the Trump presidency.

[quote] The party doesn't see that the largest group of potential swing voters out there doesn't need to be talked out of voting Republican. It needs to be talked out of not voting at all. The recent polls bear this out, showing that the people who have been turned off to the Democrats in recent months now say that in a do-over, they would vote for third parties or not at all.

[quote] People need a reason to be excited by politics, and not just disgusted with the other side. Until the Democrats figure that out, these improbable losses will keep piling up.

I love hearing everyone's guidance, opinions, feedback, etc. Why are some threads more popular?

He looks like a Chord Overstreet made out of silly putty. He's apparently based in Chicago, travels a bit in business or first class so he appears to either have a sugar daddy (not pictured), work for United or has family working for the airline. He has a nice body and ass.

The drama never ends on DL. Have at it bitches! Let's continue the talk and gossip.

New York Post - April 26 . (DL Rejected Lengthy URL)

It’s “Live with . . . Caitlyn!”

On Tuesday morning’s “Live with Kelly” show, Caitlyn Jenner was a guest — and possibly one of the rudest ever.

Jenner, who appeared to promote her memoir, “The Secrets of My Life,” continuously cut off Kelly Ripa and guest co-host, John Leguizamo.

At one point, Jenner even turned the tables on Ripa, asking when she first identified as a female.

“Just think about that,” she said, pointing her manicured finger at Ripa. “When did you know you were a girl?”

E! cancels Caitlyn Jenner's reality show 'I Am Cait'

Caitlyn Jenner won't come out for Trump Jenner then made Leguizamo her target, asking him how he enjoyed dressing in drag in the 1995 comedy, “To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar.”

The painful 15-minute interview consisted of endless, self-congratulatory rants by Jenner, coupled with awkward attempts at interjection by Ripa and Leguizamo.

Perhaps the former sports star forgot that she was on a talk show — not giving one of her for-pay motivational speeches.

She didn’t even need Ripa to ask her any questions: Jenner played both guest and interviewer throughout the show.

“I’m actually very excited to be here,” Jenner said. “Why? Because today, the 25th of April . . . my book comes out and I don’t have a secret left in my life.”

Later, Jenner mused that she’s had a “lifetime of soul-searching. It’s all in the book.”

“Yes, I know,” Ripa responded.

Of course, Jenner wasn’t merely content being a guest on the morning show.

“I want to win the best-entrance contest at the end of the year,” Jenner immediately proclaimed upon sitting in her chair.

Later on in her interview, Jenner interrupted the hosts again to let them know she had been snubbed in the past — and wasn’t happy about it.

“I have been around for 40 years, from the old ‘Regis and Kathie Lee’ — Kathie Lee’s [Gifford] the godmother to some of my children — and all this kind of stuff. I’ve watched your show for years, I’ve seen you go through all this stuff, and I’ve never been asked to co-host,” she complained.

We have a feeling that invitation will never come.

So healthy

This is my list, combined with some feedback of friends of mine.

Worth the time and money:

- Dublin & Surrounding Areas

- Edinburgh & Highlands

- Florence

- London (and Cardiff - but only because Cardiff was cheap and easy to get to anyway)

Waste

- Rome

On the Fence

- NYC (really depends on the time of year and may other factors)

- Israel - exhausting with jetlag and the heat, but interesting sights. Food did not agree w/ me.

- Las Vegas - it's more of a cattle heard now than ever, but the Mandarin Oriental doesn't have a casino & might be worth staying at instead

- Paris - too expensive and crowded, not a friendly place

Wondering About

- Nordic / Far North Countries (Iceland, Sweden, Norway)

- Switzerland (Geneva or Zurich)

- Amsterdam

- Various parts of Asia (Tokyo, Hong Kong, Seoul)

Here's part two. Carry on.

Interviewer hates her and buys none of her shit.

It was dubbed a "gay" cowboy movie but techincally Ennis and Jack were bi or at least not 100% gay considering they both had sex with women, then married them and had kids. That's how I see it anyway. Thoughts?

He's gone completely gray and his waistline is expanding. He's wasted so many years, time to fess up and come out already.

This making the round on Twitter. About an hour ago strange flashing red lights were seen coming from a room on the second floor of the White House.

Please say someone just took out Trump.

I'm Audrey Landers small breasts that she didn't seem to get her money's worth for.

I just finished watching "Christine" starring Rebecca Hall. Very disturbing. On her wikipedia page, it says It was confirmed in June 2016 that the footage of Chubbuck's death exists and had indeed been in Robert Nelson's possession, but was handed over to a "very large law firm" for safekeeping by Mollie Nelson. She has no plans on making it publicly available.

Better than Fred? Frustrated by not being able to transition out of musicals? Was his last decade terrible for him personally?

The trailer looks good. I love Karen lol she's like a drag queen in a woman's body. Katie is the only original cast member who is not returning. Rumor is the producers wanted her storyline to be extra messy and she declined. They've added Monique as a new housewife. She is married to former football player Chris Samuels. Naturally it appears Gizelle won't be welcoming Monique with open arms. Is Karen moving? Robyn and Duan have more relationship drama and Ashley says something to set Robyn off.

I was watching Paper chase & wondered why they all look and seem much older than people the same age do today. It's not just that movie, I remember people looking older and their manner seeming older than people of the same ages today. It was true of young adults as well as older ones. It couldn't just be how they dressed, that wouldn't explain their manner seeming older.

Not a good look. The FISA story is exploding. I'm sure Trump is jumping for joy now that the courts are backing him up.

I long ago took the initiative to leave off the Vivian Vance choice as I've always hated that dated reference. I'm not Mr. Brontosaurus, after all.

Now I'm reading that I should dump the "We Bought a Zoo" choice, too. If I leave it out, I get YELLED AT. So I thought I'd have a poll.

Here's my Dad's ship. This link shows you exactly where it was sunk in the Mediterranean. The Uboat that sunk it, sunk only one ship in the entire war, his!

Dad drew straws that night, and lost, so he had to work in the kitchen, then BAM! The ship was hit in his normal work area, the engine room, killing the crew there.

He said he held-up the war because his feet were so big, there were no shoes in Gibraltar to fit him. They sent a Brit by bicycle off base, into Spain to find him some shoes. Took a whole day.

Then he was assigned a new ship and won the war. Thanks, Dad!

So fucking excited to see this! The casting looks perfect especially Ian McShane as Mr. Wednesday.

Austin men peeved that they weren’t invited to a women-only screening of “Wonder Woman” only faced pushback from the Alamo Drafthouse after they complained.

The Texas movie theater announced a special screening of the DC Comics movie Wednesday.

“Apologies, gentlemen, but we’re embracing our girl power and saying ‘No Guys Allowed’ for one special night at the Alamo Ritz. And when we say ‘People Who Identify As Women Only,’ we mean it. Everyone working at this screening — venue staff, projectionist, and culinary team — will be female,” the invitation said.

“So lasso your geeky girlfriends together and grab your tickets to this celebration of one of the most enduring and inspiring characters ever created.”

Almost immediately, alienated men jumped out to attack the theater for excluding them.

“Great, let us know when you have guys-only screenings of Thor, Spider-Man, Star Wars, etc. Let's see you walk the walk now that you set this precedence,” one man wrote on Facebook.

“Very tacky,” wrote another.

The Alamo, however, had responses for everyone.

“We've never done showings where you had to be a man to get in, but we *did* show the ‘Entourage’ movie a few years ago,” the theater replied to a commenter.

Despite complaints, the Austin theater sold out the screening and booked a second showing. They’re also planning screenings at other locations around the country — possibly including the Brooklyn theater.

The thread about sexting and the "model" is full. If DL can have 300 threads about those Gio & Tommy, we surely can't miss one about Dustbin Lance Black and Tom Daley.

Thanks to those who captured this frame in the previous thread, here's one of the best picture capturing this love story.

Premiere tonight! First night on the new network!

Interestingly, after reading reports that Cat wouldn't be on the show anymore (because Calista Flockhart refused to move to Vancouver)... she's in the premiere at least.

Superman is HOT. Win is HOT. And the new mystery Kryptonian is HOT!!!!

I want them in hot three way action (even if mystery guy remains in a coma)

Anyone else watching? Hopefully season 2 is better than season 1.

Does Christine work?

Because the other thread is overstuffed, much like Phil's pants.

Lisa Marie Presley has wasted away after losing a whopping 35kgs, according to a shocking new US report published today, and sources fear she’s killing herself with drugs, just like her late father Elvis.

A new report in American magazine Globe outrageously claims the 5ft 3in heiress, who has reportedly blown through most of her dad’s fortune, may not live to see the 40th anniversary of Elvis’s death on August 16.

“Lisa Marie is a drug-addicted mess,” says the publication’s unnamed insider. “She’s become a wraith and her weight has dropped to a shocking 99lbs [45kgs]. She may well have passed he point of no return. Her organs are in failure, with her liver already collapsed. People around her have tried to help, but it’s no use. She’s going to end up just like her father.”

Lisa Marie, 49, was ordered to go to rehab by a fed-up children’s court judge in LA during divorce and custodial proceedings over her eight-year-old twin girls, Harper and Finley, with soon-to-be-ex-husband Michael Lockwood, 56. However Lisa Marie refuses to obey the judge’s edict to complete six months in rehab.

Rumors that Michael was planning an intervention on Lisa Marie when she hit him with divorce papers haven’t helped her case. Globe’s report sensationally claims that when she discovered his plan, “she gobbled a cocktail of prescription meds causing her liver to collapse”. Lisa Marie was hospitalized and that’s when Michael called the California Child Protective Services to step in and save the twins, who are now staying with their grandmother Priscilla.

“Lisa Marie claims she was suffering from severe back and throat problems and that’s why she needs pain pills,” says Globe’s insider, who adds she’s been practically homeless, crashing her older kids, Riley and Ben Keogh’s pads. “She’s out of control. She’s ‘bouncing around’ between the homes of Riley and Ben because nobody can stand living with her. Even her own mother, Priscilla, has grown tired of having to babysit her and has sided with Michael in the custody battle for their twins girls.”

Who would be in the cast? What would the drama be about?

A dangerous fool playing directly into Putin's hands

It's gotta be huge. Has anyone hit the gym with him in NY?

It's Fleet Week in NYC. How come I'm not hearing anything about the lovely sailor boys roaming the streets?

Don't usually watch these type of shows but I was very good at Songpop, so this might be fun. I might actually try to get on.

One year ago, Heughan and his close male friend -Luke Neal- spent over a month travelling together around the world. Sam also brought Luke to the Outlander premiere and several private parties. After this trip, the gay rumors about Sam were eveywhere and Luke -an actor and writer-. deleted ALL his SM. People who met Heughan at British theatre, say that Sam was openly gay before Starz contract:

[quote]Knew him in the theatre scene back in the day. Nice guy. And openly gay then.

[quote]Oh darling, of course I’m an old gossip. Have you never met a theatre queen before? Everyone in the biz knows he’s gay, which is not a big deal here. But it is in the US and in the movie industry, so I don’t think anyone was shocked or upset that he’s decided to closet. And really he’s not exactly closeting hard. It’s like Luke Evans 2.0'.

I was planning to invite all the Disney princesses to my birthday party, but our staff are having difficulty determining the appropriate precedence in which to arrange them for processing and seating?

Who is the top dog of this pack of bitches? What's the order?

We are tentatively placing Snow White at the head of the line, because she was the princess and heir of the king and his evil wife died, so she must have become Queen Regnant with her Prince Consort beside her. Cinderella is just lucky chattel (Got that, Kate?). Mulan isn't even a princess, and she's only wed to a general.

Help, please. The invitations have to go out soon!

The Chamberlain's List:

Snow White

Cinderella

Aurora

Ariel

Belle

Jasmine

Pocahontas

Mulan

Tiana

Rapunzel

Using the word 'penthouse' is a bit of a stretch when it's on the 18th or 19th floor of an over 100 year old building but this condo in the Plaza Hotel is sublime.

What say you, DL ?

How much longer until we're rid of this scumbag?

Is Jared going to jail?

Why is Priebus returning early?

Nationals star Bryce Harper's advice to Little Leaguers: It's not OK to lose

- Four-time MLB All-Star imparts wisdom to young players

- 2015 National League MVP has little time for participation trophies

Guardian sport, Sunday 28 May 2017 18.18 BST

It’s perhaps just as well that Bryce Harper plays for one of Major League Baseball’s best teams because, judging from a pep talk he gave to Little League players on Saturday, he really doesn’t like losing.

The 2015 National League MVP spoke to a group of budding young players in Washington DC and made his philosophy clear. “As much as they might tell you, ‘It’s OK you guys lost today,’ no Johnny. No participation trophies, OK? First place only, alright,” the Washington Nationals outfielder said to the crowd.

The words were met with laughter and Harper kept the mood light but there is little doubt the 24-year-old follows his own advice. In 2015, he got into a fight with one of his own team-mates during a loss to the Philadelphia Phillies, an incident he later shrugged off. “He apologized, so whatever,” Harper said. “I really don’t care. ... It’s like brothers fighting. That’s what happens.”

Harper is widely considered one of the best young players in baseball and a potential Hall of Famer. The Nationals lead the NL East and Harper has hit 15 home runs this season, the second-highest total in the major leagues.

Harper is not the first US athlete to take a stand against participation trophies. In 2015, the Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker James Harrison took away his children’s trophies. In an Instagram post on the subject Harrison said: “Everything in life should be earned and I’m not about to raise two boys to be men by making them believe that they are entitled to something just because they tried their best … cause sometimes your best is not enough, and that should drive you to want to do better … not cry and whine until somebody gives you something to shut u up and keep you happy.”

Harrison has won the Super Bowl twice.

What did you think? Forgot it was on tonight so will watch it later.

I have this and in drives me crazy, feeling all those hard little plugs on one's buttocks.

I get the little plugs on my arms now and then but I just gouge them out with my fingernails. No can do on the ass cheeks -- there are legions of them and one can't see what one is doing.

So, how to remove the little bastards?

For real.

Ireland appears set to elect its first openly gay prime minister (or Taoiseach) on June 2. Leo Varadkar has built a wide lead in the race to succeed Enda Kenny, who announced his departure after serving as the country's premier for more than six years.

Varadkar is currently the Minister for Social Protection and is the favorite to replace Kenny as both the Fine Gael party leader and the head of government. If elected, he would also become the country's first leader of Asian immigrant descent and, at 38, the youngest person to hold the office.

Her new song Bomb Apple Teeth came in #15 on iTunes and has dropped to #22. Everyone hates it and her power lesbian buzzcut. Poor thing.

So, I have done some traveling about on business and have encountered on more than one occasion offers by men (30-40) to be my husband in exchange for a U.S. Visa and to live with me until they are able to get citizenship. Me; 56, white male, neither handsome nor ugly, pinch overweight, middle income. My husband died several years ago so I am alone in a large house. I am seriously considering this option. I get companionship, sex, and hopefully someone who can cook and they get to stay home and do their toenails or go to work, their option.

What do you think of this? Anyone had experience or know of someone who did this? I can't see myself getting in any future relationships because everyone I know wants a 25-year-old twink.

i need to stay away from this store I walk in intending to buy three items, and always leave with over 50. I love Costco. However, my wallet is feeling the effects?

Politico reports:

Democratic Sen. Cory Booker preached patience in the ongoing investigations into Russian election interference and potential ties to the Trump campaign, saying he was not ready yet to entertain talks of impeachment charges.

“I’m not going to rush to impeachment,” Booker (D-N.J.) said Sunday on CNN’s “Face the Nation.” “I think we need to deal with this in a very sobered way.”

Democratic lawmakers have largely shied away from discussing of seeking an impeachment of President Donald Trump, whose White House and former transition team has been hit with a wave of recent controversies pertaining to contacts with Russian officials.

What are you doing? I'm watching Mrs. Henderson Presents and drinking red wine. Waiting for what looks like a spectacular thunderstorm.

Anyone read this yet? I heard about it this weekend, seems like the companion piece to Blood on the Mountain. In 2075 climate change has come to pass, swallowing up both coasts, causing the capitol to be moved to Columbus Ohio, etc, and the US government finally does something (symbolic) about fossil fuels, but that causes the South to secede and sparks a second civil war.

I know about Downton Abbey, The New Normal, Days of Our Lives and Spartacus. Are there any others?

Usually I'm a top so I wonder if that factors into it. 24 year starts old here

Anyone else watching? It's really not very good. The lead actress is OK, but Christ, that Andrea Martin is grating. Is it at all possible for her not to play to the cheap seats? She ruined the revival of "Noises off" and now she has to stink up this. I'm glad Billy killed her off all those years ago-too bad she didn't stay dead.

He has said she knew he was gay and thought she could help him change.

My heart was beating a little faster as I walked down the hotel hallway. I had done this plenty of times before, but Mark’s voice had betrayed a different kind of nervous energy than I was accustomed to. There was an edge to it.

I’m often the first trans woman a guy has been with. I’m white, passable, easy-going, confident, and a strict bottom—for the most part, I’m just a hot chick they get to have anal sex with. I’ve come to enjoy first-timers. It’s my specialty. I like their innocent anxiousness, the relief that washes over them when they see me and realize I’m even more attractive than they hoped. I know how to put them at ease, get them excited, make sure we both have a good time, and inevitably leave them hooked. I pride myself on being a kind of ambassador to trans sex.

For me it’s about much more than sex, though.

What I’m really seeking is affirmation of my womanhood, and this is the most available means of doing it. No one is more anxious about their sexuality that straight cis men, no one more frightened of being labeled “gay.” This is especially true for first-timers. Hooking up with them is like handling a volatile explosive—and I like the rush. I need that intensity. It’s the only thing that keeps the din of self-doubt and self-loathing at bay. Their wanting me is the proof I need of who I am. Get a better clean with Charmin. Don't leave pieces behind.

It’s different with Mark, though I can’t put my finger on why. My intuition tells me not to see him, but at this point in my life I don’t know how else to quiet the demons in my head. He opens the door and my doubts are immediately eclipsed by desire: He’s tall, built, incredibly handsome. The darkness I heard in his voice now becomes a sexy broodiness in my eyes. I slip into my routine, we chat, start making out, get into bed and start stripping down. He’s distant, but I ignore it, kissing his broad smooth chest and undoing his belt. Suddenly he grabs my arms with strong hands and pushes me off, sits up on the side of the bed with his head buried in his hands. I ask him if he’s okay. He starts hyperventilating. Kotex stops leaks. Try a free sample.

I know this sound well. It’s animalistic, the way men breathe as they’re nearing violence. I jump off the bed and grab my clothes and purse—holding them against my naked body with one hand, the other resting on the doorknob. Adrenaline surges through me and time stands still. I’m listening for other sounds in the area, praying other guests are near and would hear me yell because I know I can’t outrun him. I can already see him grabbing me, throwing me onto the bed and muffling my screams with a pillow. This could be how I die.

I know what the story would be if my lifeless body were later found, and if Mark were arrested. He would say that I didn’t tell him I was trans. That I came to his hotel room and it was only when we were in bed that he discovered I was “really a man.” That he panicked and the next thing he knew I was no longer breathing. If the case went to court, his lawyers would argue “trans panic,” an admissible defense in 49 states. And the only person who could contradict his statement, me, would be unable to. I would be further proof of a stubbornly pervasive narrative: the man who dresses up as a woman to trick a man. We as a society have decided that such deception justifies murder. He might go to jail for involuntary manslaughter—maybe—but there’d undoubtedly be sympathy for him, too. How awful to think you’re with a woman and have it turn out to be a man. (The unspoken subtext being “the faggot had it coming.”)

No one would know that Mark sought me out in a forum specifically for men looking for trans women. That he was one of many straight men who watch trans pornography, hire trans escorts, troll Craigslist for “discreet” hookups, go to clubs trans women are known to frequent, or look for trans sex workers on the “stroll” that every city has. No one would know I don’t trick men, that I don’t need to.

I made it out unharmed that night, but many women like me don’t.

Why do so many lesbian couples (certainly not all) persist in the outdated stereotypical heavy role-defined presentation? I have seen a lot of photos of lesbians from back in the 40's and 50's, and that seemed to definitely be the norm back then. Just yesterday I saw a number of both gay and lesbian high school couples who attended their school proms with their boyfriends/girlfriends. Among the lesbians, almost every couple had one dressed in a tuxedo and one in a gown. The gay boys did not present this type of role-defined image. In fact, in my 48 years of being gay, I have not known one gay male couple that fit the stereotypical butch/femme model. (I know they exist, but have personally never met any.)

Among lesbians I know, several couples are what I would classify as femme/femme. When I have asked this same question of them, the response is usually "I have no idea" and have expressed a general lack of attraction to butchy lesbians. Go figure.

Aside from "it takes all kinds", anyone have any further theories on this. It mystifies me.

I'll get this one out of the way first:

My partner found this while cleaning out his parents' house. Jealous?

Nancy's 16-year-old twin sons were assaulted by Ann's husband on her tour bus:

"Nancy's then-16-year-old twin sons asked their uncle, Ann's husband Dean Wetter, if they could see Ann's new tour bus. Wetter brought the teenagers and Nancy's stepdaughter to the vehicle, but asked them to keep the door closed so the dogs on the bus couldn't escape. When the twins exited the bus after the visit, the first one out left the door open for the other two behind him, enraging Wetter.

According to a detective's report in court documents obtained by Rolling Stone, "Dean became immediately upset and began calling [one of the teens] names … slap[ping] him on the back of the head, causing pain." The teen asked why he hit him, with Wetter responding by "punching [the teenager] in the back of the head with a closed fist, causing [him] to be stunned and see stars." After Wetter grabbed him by the throat, Nancy's other son intervened. Wetter grabbed the other teen by the throat and, according to a police report, began "squeezing [the other son's throat] to the point that [he] could not breathe. [He] said that he was unable to breathe or talk and that he feared for his life and felt pain in his neck." Police arrested the then-66-year-old Wetter, charging him with two counts of assault, one felony and one misdemeanor."

Those of you who followed journalist Therese Apel during the Jessica Chambers story will remember her exceptional reporting. She has major scoops on this horror; the most deadly mass killing of 2017.

Eight people, including a law enforcement officer, have been shot dead in rural Mississippi. The victims were discovered in three separate locations in rural Lincoln County overnight, according to Mississippi Bureau of Investigation spokesman Warren Strain.he shooting spree began sometime before 11:30 p.m. local time (12:30 a.m. Sunday ET) when authorities received a domestic call in Bogue Chitto, Mississippi, Strain said.

The bodies of three women and a Lincoln County Sheriff’s Department deputy were found at that scene, he said. The other victims were discovered at two separate homes in Brookhaven, Mississippi, where the bodies of two boys and an adult man and woman were found, Strain said.

The slain deputy was identified as 36-year-old William Durr, a two-year veteran at the sheriff’s department and four-year veteran of the Brookhaven Police Department. The identities of the other victims have not been released, pending notification of next of kin.

Willie Corey Godbolt, 35, was taken into custody and being treated at a local hospital for a gunshot wound, Strain told NBC News. Officials did not say how Godbolt was injured and charges have not yet been filed.

Elvis Presley's last privately-owned jet was auctioned Saturday after sitting on a tarmac in Roswell, New Mexico, for 35 years. The plane sold for $430,000 on Saturday at an Agoura Hills, California, event featuring celebrity memorabilia, GWS Auctions Inc. said. It was expected to fetch between $2million and $3.5million (£2.6million), according to liveauctioneers.com, the site handling the bidding.

The aircraft was one of three jets owned by the King of Rock and Roll throughout his lifetime, and was particularly special to him as he owned it with his father Vernon Presley.

Premiere last night. I figured this exchange would be of interest to DL'ers:

Russ: Richard. I can tell, and as much as you want to be, you're not. It's like this. You're trying to date a woman, - but deep down in your heart you know you're gay. Deep in your soul, you know you would rather be plowing a dude!

Richard: I don't... I do... Okay, what dude?

Russ: It could be any dude, as long as you really want to fuck him. It could be a a twink, a bear, an otter, a circuit queen, a chub, a pup, a gipster, a daddy chaser, a leather man, a ladyboy, a Donald Duck.

Richard: (stammers)

Russ: Donald Duck's a gay guy who's been kicked out of the Navy.

Richard: H-How do you know so many gay things?

Russ: My grandfather just came out of the closet. Beautiful. Very inspiring.

____________ OK, so they explained "Donald Duck," but what the heck is a gipster?

I remember reading a piece on Brooke Shields in the 80s (I think it was Time magazine) where someone referred to Brooke as "a rare order of beauty, never seen more than once or twice in a decade". I think this also applies to Elizabeth Taylor. Obviously both peaked at a very young age and weren't as beautiful later on. But for a period of time, both possessed a rare order of beauty indeed.

Place your bets on the guys...guys.

Organizers for the 2017 World OutGames in Miami have canceled almost every scheduled sporting event, just hours before the games were set to begin.

The 10-day event, which brings LGBT athletes from all over the world together, was axed due to financial issues, according to a Facebook post from the OutGames board of directors.

“It is with deep regret that due to financial burdens, World OutGames must cancel its sports programming and Opening and Closing Ceremony with the exception of soccer, aquatics and country western dance,” reads a statement. “The Human Rights Conference and cultural programs will continue as planned. We thank everyone who has supported the effort and apologize to those who will be impacted by this difficult decision.”

The last-minute announcement means many athletes had either already arrived in Miami or were in transit when the announcement was made. Australian tennis player Rowen D’Souza told the Miami Herald that he’d spent $3,000 to travel from Australia to Miami. The OutGames organizers, he says, were not easy to deal with the entire time.

“The communication has been poor from the start. I suspect they knew there were problems but did nothing.”

This year is the first the event was hosted in the United States, with local agencies having spent hundreds of thousands to sponsor the games. Members of Miami Beach City Hall expressed concerns earlier this year about financing, but OutGames officials declared that fundraising was going well and guaranteed that they would not cancel the games.

In the past, the OutGames has drawn 16,000 athletes from more than 120 countries, partaking in some 35 events, from basketball and bodybuilding to same-sex ballroom dancing and synchronized swimming. But it has always suffered from competition from the Gay Games, another LGBT-focused sporting series. In 2006, the closing ceremony of the Chicago Gay Games was only seven days before the opening ceremony of World OutGames in Montreal.

We're back to the red clay of Paris and the fresh, spring air of a new French presidential administration. At Roland-Garros, there is also hope in the air for our many competitors, veterans and new. As always we start with the men.

Misery, aka number one seed SIR Andy Murray of Thighs and Ass, faces the veteran Kuznetsov in the first round. Will Kevin Spacey be ogling from the stands as mother Judy's cold, dusty nether regions twitch, drip and come back to life at the sight of her son's lower body, I mean "form"? Another pair of veterans, furry guy Baghdatis and Almargo also meet in the first half. DL fave Delpo and American Isner are in this top part of the draw. Berdych, Zverev, and old Verdasco may add some spice and possible challenge to Misery in what may otherwise be an easy first few rounds for him.

Beyond Kicker, Quevvas and Querrey are here as is Istomin, a name I'd not heard in quite some time. It's more compelling a bit further down the draw with Nishikori and Wawrinka of the nice ass but pockmarked face. More veterans in Fognini and national favorites Gasquet, Monfils and Tsonga. Expect some fireworks from Kyrgios as one expects self-destructive behavior from Linsdsey Lohan. Two Spanish veterans, Ferrer and Lopez, are next. Ics follow with Cil and Raon. Janowicz and Robredo may meet early as may Dimitrov and Sock's lush ass. Bautista Agut and Frenchman Simon are somewhere down there.

Thiem, current holder of the Most Beautiful Ass in Tennis title, and Tomic meet in the first round. Nadal, former holder of the title for his famous ass, is seeded 4. He is still king of clay, no? Mathieu and Goffin, country adjacent, meet in the first round. Frenchman and DL fave Pouille (Poohey) meets compatriot The Many Colors of Benneteau in the first round. A couple of evs follow: Medved and Zver. At the bottom of the draw Granollers and a troubled Djokovic (2) meet in the first round. Nole.

On to the women. Number 1 (some say undeserving) Kerber meets an ova, Makar, in the first round. Reigning Olympic champ Puig! meets Vinci in the opening round. Next are Stosur and an ova, Kuc. Let's Flip-kens to another ova, Kvit, and Wozniacki, who may meet early. Names for the ages are a bit down the draw: Andrianjafitrimo and Vikhlyantseva. Mugurutha and "Frank" Schiavone meet in the first round. Lucic-Baroni, Errani and Mladenovic are still around as is...

Granny Venus! who faces a Wang (for the first time?) in the opening round. I'm already so excited for the future of women's tennis with this draw, right Ben and Courtney? Given all this excitement I will skip to THE future of women's tennis and certain finalist Bouchard, that bastion against the Doper in Chief. DLez fave and manhunter Carla Suarez Navarro will munch her way to victory on a carpet of grass. Oh wait, we're not at Wimbledon yet. Fittingly Kunta is a bit down the draw as is Halep. Taylor "Townhouse" Townsend weighs down the draw followed by some ovas: Plisk, Stryc, Safar and Rybarik. I Begu to look at Vandeweghe, and let's not be Witthoeft the pair meeting at the bottom of the draw: Zheng and ova, Plisk.

Are we missing any women? (Pregnant pause). Dope? I mean "Nope?" Speaking of missing women, we won't have Peeps-eating Mirka Federer and her nemesis Brooklyn Decker-Roddick, model and thin, to entertain us.

As always, let's keep discussion of this, the most elegant of sports, civil. And at long last can Pam Shriver ever, ever find a man even if he is molded of red clay and a spare rib?

Over the last 72 hours, students have taken over a small liberal arts college in Washington state, and only one adult has tried to stop them.

Students at Evergreen State College in Olympia, who filmed their exploits and posted the videos on social media, have occupied and barricaded the library, shouting down anyone who disagrees with them or shows insufficient passion for racial justice. Biology professor Bret Weinstein was berated by dozens of students outside of his classroom Tuesday morning for refusing to participate in an event in which white people were invited to leave campus for a day. Now, he says police have told him to hold his classes off campus due to safety concerns.

Things are “out of control at Evergreen,” he said.

“Police told me protesters stopped cars yesterday, demanding information about occupants,” Mr. Weinstein told The Washington Times. “They believe I was being sought. It appears that the campus has been under the effective control of protesters since 9:30 a.m. Tuesday. Police are on lockdown, hamstrung by the college administration. Students, staff and faculty are not safe.”

A spokesman for the Evergreen Department of Police Services confirmed the agency had been in contact with Mr. Weinstein. He said officers would be in touch with The Times, but three subsequent phone calls during business hours were not answered.

A college spokesman declined to comment on Mr. Weinstein’s situation or any of the other activity on campus.

Evergreen student Blake Vincent said he was participating in the protests and was unaware of any searches for Mr. Weinstein’s whereabouts. “As far as Bret being told not to hold classes on campus, I would love to know if that’s true,” said Mr. Vincent, who has been posting videos of the protests to his Facebook account, adding that the professor was “never physically threatened.”

Mr. Weinstein was confronted outside of his classroom Tuesday morning by dozens of students who demanded he apologize or resign for writing an allegedly racist email.

His email took issue with a “Day of Absence & Day of Presence” demonstration, for which white students, faculty and staff were asked to leave campus for one day. He wrote: “On a college campus, one’s right to speak — or to be — should never be based on skin color.”

A video of the confrontation, captured by Mr. Vincent, shows Mr. Weinstein attempting to reason with dozens of students who routinely shout him down, curse at him and demand his resignation.

When the professor tells the students he will listen to them if they listen to him, one student responds, “We don’t care what terms you want to speak on. This is not about you. We are not speaking on terms — on terms of white privilege. This is not a discussion. You have lost that one.”

Another protester asks the professor whether he believes “black students in sciences are targeted.”

After asking for a clarification, Mr. Weinstein says, “I do not believe that anybody on our faculty, with intent, specially targets students of color.”

That remark prompts shrieks of outrage.

Uber CEO Travis Kalanick's parents were involved in a boating accident on Friday that killed his mother and left his father badly injured.

The company, in a statement on Saturday, called the incident an "unspeakable tragedy" and said that Kalanick's father remains in a "serious condition." Kalanick's mother, Bonnie, was 71.

"Our thoughts and prayers are with Travis and his family in this heartbreaking time," the Uber statement reads. An email sent to Uber employees said that Kalanick's father is being treated at a hospital.

Kalanick's parents, who went on frequent boating trips, were on Pine Flat Lake in Fresno County, California, when the accident occurred. The Fresno County Sheriff's Office said in a statement that an investigation into the incident is underway. An autopsy is planned for Sunday. "A preliminary report indicates the boat struck a rock and the man and woman on the boat suffered injuries from the collision," the sheriff's statement said.

Kalanick was close with his mother, a person familiar with the matter said. Just over a week ago, he shared a Facebook post for Mother's Day with photos of them together, saying "I appreciate my mom, her infinite love and huge [heart] more and more."

I'm watching this and the best part is all the color home movies from the 1930s. You register it as the 1950s, because we think of the 1930s as black and white, but there's footage of Elizabeth and Margaret aboard the Victoria and Albert yacht in 1937 that looks like 20-30 years later, because it's color.

Takeaways - I think everyone in the royal family is feeble minded save for the queen. The basic format has the queen with Charles, and Harry with William, watching lots of old home movies going back 80 years, and commenting on it. After a while you really start to think that Charles' stupidity just kills the queen. She's used to it, but it still takes discipline for her not to scream. He's all "eh- what, that was - what was that? Oh, that's a giraffe! Marvellous! Was that in New Zealand?" And she's all "Llama. It's Melbourne." I mean, they are all dull as dirt, even Harry, but there are times you can see the queen is sharp as a tack. She's watching these ancient films and she can name everybody, including governesses and corgis, she knows where they are and who took the film., and I have to give her credit for tolerating Charles. There's video of her doing things like riding in an open car and standing up in the back to wave, and riding an elephant, and of that time she was riding her horse for Trooping the Color in the 1980s, and somebody fired blanks, which very very mildly spooked her horse. Charles frets about the height of the elephant and how he hasn't done it and it looks quite alarming. He frets about public appearances where you're right out in the open because there's all kinds of people about nowadays who could do anything, and it's alarming, isn't it?

I've always heard that Prince Phillip was awful to poor Prince Charles, but just based on this thing he'd try the patience of Mary Poppins. He's not too stupid for Prince Phillip's standards, he's just unutterably stupid.

One of the best bits of film is behind the scenes at Elizabeth's wedding to Phillip, in the hallways of whatever palace before or after the ceremony. Here comes bridesmaid Princess Margaret, holding a bit of Elizabeth's dress with one hand and smoking a cigarette with the other, literally sauntering along and giving no shits. Today's Elizabeth, the 90 year old one, exclaims "Oh MARGARET" like she's talking to her. there's so much in the way she said it. I think Princess Margaret ultimately died of cigarettes, booze, and bitchiness, and these few seconds of her as a bridesmaid showcases all three. Elizabeth didn't sound angry, just almost despairing and sad.

My overall impression is that for all the gossip that goes on about the royal family, anybody with a shred of competence and brains is in such short supply that it probably tests the patience of those who can handle basic responsibilities when everyone around them is a moron. The only ones who show some brains in this are the queen and Princess Anne.

Charles is just insufferable. This is a documentary that he narrates, done with obviously the full cooperation of the royal family in tribute, and I think you have to work hard to be that dull.

Justin Timberlake is 36 today. He's accomplished a ton since leaving NSYNC behind.

Born Jan. 31, 1981, Justin Timberlake celebrates his 36th birthday Tuesday. And as a solo artist, movie star and "Saturday Night Live" host, he's accomplished a ton since he left *NYSNC in 2002.

Born Jan. 31, 1981, the nine-time Grammy winner boasts absurd talent and next-level handsome.

He's also a captivating live performer, as he proved at the 2016 Eurovision Song Contest.

Fans knew he was a force ever since he and Ryan Gosling buddied up (and hung out with '90s R&B group Xscape) on "The All-New Mickey Mouse Club."

They even lived together at the time, and "stole" a golf cart on the "MMC" set, he told Ellen DeGeneres in 2011.

He added, "I was like, 'What you wanna do, thug?' And he was like, 'I don't know, cous' -- 'cause that's definitely how we talked."

Breaking free from the bubble-gum pop of '90s boy band *NSYNC, he emerged at the 2002 MTV Video Music Awards as a solo artist on the rise. (We'll give him a pass for his initial over-the-top neck swivels.)

His genre-busting cred helps him collaborate with everyone from Beyoncé to Chris Stapleton. His 2015 CMA Awards duet with Stapleton became an instant classic.

Through the years, Timberlake's influenced Marilyn Manson, Justin Bieber, Lorde, and Jason DeRulo, among many others.

Manson has even covered Timberlake's 2006 hit "What Goes Around... Comes Around."

The top-tier "Saturday Night Live" host made "The Barry Gibb Talk Show," a singing mascot, and "Dick in a Box" instant classics, and was trusted to join pal Jimmy Fallon to open the series' 40th anniversary special. As it turns out, all four of JT's Emmy wins are for "SNL" contributions.

He's also been heralded for helping LGBT causes, children's charities, the environment and the arts. And his duet of "Hallelujah" with Matt Morris during the 2010 Hope for Haiti telethon was one of the fundraiser's most memorable moments.

His high-profile exes include Britney Spears and Cameron Diaz, but he found bliss with Jessica Biel.

On Biel's birthday in 2015, JT took to Instagram to call her the "sweetest, most gorgeous, goofiest, most bad-ass chick I know."

He's also a proud papa to 21-month-old son, Silas, a.k.a. JT's "greatest gift ever."

With memorable performances in "The Social Network" and “Inside Llewyn Davis,” he's proven to be a solid actor, too.

This year in film, he's supervising the soundtrack for "The Book of Love," and acting in Woody Allen's next movie.

I hope, the thread title is okay.

Thank you for sharing "Why We Paint Red Flags, White!" Good to read. It all makes mor sense.

You can have your Gios, your Muirs and your Andy Coopers--Cuomo beats them ALL in the hotness department.

Vote and discuss.

I do once in a.while. It calms me down.

I'm binge watching shows on Netflix and doing laundry today. Oh, what an exciting life I lead. How about anyone else? Do you find yourself with no plans for the weekend? How do you feel about it?

My Fibro is acting-up but, I'm dealin'.

Soon, "Live With Kelly and Ryan" will be on.

Life is good.

Are you bitches jealous or no?

Take out those claws girls.

Liveleak has it.

Returns two weeks from tonight on TLC.

I'm not thrilled about Elizabeth Moss, but I'm glad someone made a series from the book, the last was a movie in the 90's. Anyone else looking forward to it? It starts April 26.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre much?

Because all the other nipple threads seem to be closed, and this image is just so hot, one bro worshiping another bro's nipples:

Used to be incredibly hot and a great bottom. I don't know much about what he's done since he retired, but he is still kind of spectacular. Does anyone have any gossip?

Have you seen this show? What do you think?

Is anyone else watching this schlock? It's oddly compelling. Mainly because of Lady Stark's performance and the ghastly costumes.

MANCHESTER, England — A 22-year-old British man whose parents had emigrated from Libya was identified by the police on Tuesday as the bomber who carried out Britain’s deadliest terrorist attack since 2005, an explosion that killed 22 people and injured 59 others at Manchester Arena. The man, Salman Abedi, lived in a house just 3.5 miles from the arena,

Mr. Abedi’s ID was found at the scene of the bombing, according to a law enforcement official, speaking on the condition of anonymity because the investigation was still underway. Mr. Abedi was born in Britain in 1994, the son of immigrants from Libya, the official said.

According to neighbors, Mr. Abedi lived with his family in a house in Elsmore Road, in the Fallowfield district. The police raided the house Tuesday afternoon, after setting off a controlled explosion to gain entry.

A neighbor, Lina Ahmed, said she knew little about the family. “They didn’t really speak to anyone,” she said. “They were nice people if you walked past.” She said the family occasionally displayed a Libyan flag outside the home.

Another neighbor, Farzana Kosur, said that the mother, who taught the Quran, had been abroad for around two months.

Residents were stunned by the police operations. “We’ve been watching this kind of attack happen in Paris,” said a neighbor, Thomas Coull, 17. “We didn’t expect it to happen on our doorstep, literally.”

The British government did not make any immediate comment on the claim by the Islamic State, which said on the social messaging app Telegram that, “One of the soldiers of the caliphate was able to place an explosive device within a gathering of the crusaders in the city of Manchester.” The SITE Intelligence Group, which monitors militants’ communications, also provided a translation of the claim.

Security experts suggested that the use of a suicide bomb in Manchester, if true, would display a level of sophistication that implied collaborators — and the possibility that other bombs had been fabricated at the same time.

Chris Phillips, a former leader of the National Counter Terrorism Security Office in Britain, told the BBC: “It has involved a lot of planning — it’s a bit of a step up. This is a much more professional-style attack.”

Another former member of that office, Lee Doddridge, said that “alarm bells for me are ringing at the moment because this would have appeared to have taken quite a considerable amount of planning.”

Richard Barrett, former director of global counterterrorism operations at MI6, Britain’s foreign intelligence agency, said that the security and police forces were stretched, having to monitor more than 400 people returning from jihad in the Middle East, and 600 or so others who had tried to go but had been stopped. “So that’s already 1,000 people,” without taking into account other sympathizers in Britain, he said.

Mr. Barrett urged the authorities to engage more with the Muslim communities of Britain “to understand why people do this,”.

Shocking that the guy wasn't named Muhammad. Perhaps that's his middle name though.

I was looking for new Biaggi porn and he just put up a scene to his label Biaggi Videos where he dismantles progressively the bareback ass of a cute latino bottom in the barber chair. Gaping, lots of jus slobbering all over, al kinds of positions in the chair, every sex organ, hole, jus, rubbed everywhere. And then the splooge and I swore some bits of doody. yello, brown, grey slooge dripping out of the gaped hole and pooling on the black naugahyde barber's chair.

Does this make you want to get your hair done, a hot waxing, facials?

He's not very bright, is he?

What was I thinking?

I'm glad I'm not a woman.

I don't, but I'll still swallow. I'm wondering if anyone actually likes the taste.

If the Trump administration get its way, it will cost more for some low-income students to borrow for college, graduate students will spend a longer time repaying their debts and public servants will lose out on loan forgiveness.

That’s based on the budget proposal the White House released Tuesday, which includes major changes to the federal student loan program as well as cuts to some initiatives that make college more affordable, particularly for low-income students. The proposals, which contribute to a $9.2 billion cut to the Department’s budget, are part of a broader budget strategy aimed at cutting costs.

“By refocusing the Department’s funding priorities on supporting students, we can usher in a new era of creativity and ingenuity and lay a new foundation for American greatness,” Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos said in a statement.

Though all of the changes are only proposals that Congress would need to approve, the wish list is the first major signal of how the administration is approaching college costs and student debt. And according to critics, at least, it’s not with students in mind.

Soon after Trump was elected, I was berated by several of my friends for suggesting that Trump voters were, shall we say, intellectually challenged. So I've tried to keep those feelings to myself. But I respond to a lot of news articles and regularly get attacked by right-wingers. I've been called every name in the book and once or twice have actually feared for my safety (one of the worst screamers and haters, who called me pansy and much worse, was a cop from NJ) and I am here to say that these people are just STUPID. I mean, they are goddam stupid. I've never seen or dealt with people as ignorant and just fucking dumb as these Trump supporters. They have constructed an evil little bubble that functions basically as an echo chamber to reinforce their bigoted, sexist, homophobic views. My god, I hate them.

No one wants to see Lawrence O'Donnell gone more than President Trump. In 2011, O'Donnell called on NBC to fire Donald Trump from the Apprentice because of his racist birther campaign against Obama.

Trump even once threatened to sue O'Donnell for defamation, but never followed up on that threat.

Sign the petition to MSNBC: Keep Lawrence O'Donnell on the air

For years, MSNBC has provided a needed voice of sanity against the right-wing lies spewed on Fox News and other conservative media outlets. "The Last Word" with Lawrence O'Donnell is one of your most highly rated shows, because his program is both informative and entertaining. Please renew his contract.

I've had to turn the heating back on. I'm sick of this shit. 48F right now. 37F last night.

I want to live in a warm climate with a swimming pool in my back yard and palm trees thru the window.

How's it where you are?

Love gossip, and hearing good scoop.

Its been 2 years since the underrated Rebel Heart. Someone put this bitch back in the studio already!! What's taking so long for new Madonna music?!?

A friend is freaking out because he has a job interview on Friday at a conservative org - the local Chamber of Commerce. His hair now looks like 80s Billy Idol. Almost white blond and spiky.

He truly can't afford a $150-300 tintback, though I've told him it's the best idea to go to a professional. I've done tintbacks on myself ages ago, BTW.

Unfortunately, they no longer make ClairFill or WellaFill. Sally's Beauty Supply sells some unknown brand of filler.

Any advice?

In current series (filmed last year), Nate says they are looking for a new house. and planning to adopt a second child. Four months ago the LA Times said they sold the Spanish revival house in Hollywood Hills for $2.3 million. Do we know where they're living now?

More importantly, are gays and lesbians allowed membership or are these dating apps strictly for heteros? I hear the criteria is based on attractiveness, and how many Instagram friends you have. The more, the merrier. But I have not found anything on inclusion or exclusion of gays and lesbians. I am assuming all are welcomed?

I'd like to find a new way of meeting people using apps or sites besides our usual suspects. Ideally, I'd like something that includes forming friendships, and not just sex.

Any suggestions?

Well he is the leader of the free world , why shouldn't he be in the middle of a group shot?

YUGE! SAD! BIGLY! PEE!

With DL Fave Hilary Swank

I never realized this is all I really want in life.

My husbear finally convinced me to attend therapy sessions to deal with the issues I had with my father. I was born and raised in Montana in the 70s. My father was a harsh, violent man, hardened by years of grinding ranch work. He was 6'3" and at least 250 pounds and built like a shit brickhouse. I couldn't wrap both hands around his biceps. He was a violent man, a heavy drinker, who would regularly beat my mom. My brother and I had it the worst. From the ages of eight and up he began to fuck us. He'd do it to both of us in the outhouse - got some gun oil on his huge, unwashed, cheesy cock, and do us both. He'd beat the shit out of us if we got shit on his dick. At first it was rape, but then I began to acquiesce. I got hard a couple of times, but he wouldn't let me jack my dick. If I tried, he'd bash me and call me a queer and a faggot for getting hard.

At home, he would make us wear our sister's outfits. My brother and I were forced to dance degrading dances and sing humiliating songs for his entertainment. He would buy us lingerie he got from Billings, and make us wear it. He paraded me around town wearing a plaid skirt, and would raise to passers-by to show them my tiny, puny, hairless cocklet and loudly deride me for being a queer f@g who didn't even have peach fuzz. Back home, he would force me to tweezer my pubes.

Once, I sharted in my underwear after getting fucked. My mom, who was a gross and bitter landwhale by then, freaked. My dad beat the living shit out of me and forced me to wear a diaper to school for a month. The jocks at school discovered this during gym class, and degraded and humiliated me. They dragged me behind the bleachers and pissed on me and I was forced to fellate half the football team.

I had put all those terrible memories away for years. I'm happily married now to a wonderful husbear. I'm in my late 40s, and the memories have come back. I wake up screaming at night. My dad keeps leaving messages on my phone, which I don't answer. I think therapy is the only way I can cleanse the taint of my past, and turn a new page in the bittersweet novel of my life.

I'd love to hear from any other incest or abuse survivors if therapy helped you overcome.

Interesting. He seems a lot more intelligent here than on any of his social media accounts.

And he was in and out of foster homes until he emancipated himself at age 17.

But damn. What a movie. I laughed, I cried. I became a fan of Jim.

WTF??

“Every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future.” That’s how one commenter succinctly put it when Jeremy Meeks — best known as the “hot felon” and variations thereof — recently posted sweet Christmas photos of himself and his family to Instagram.

Meeks has come a long way since his mugshot went viral after he was arrested in June 2014 on weapons charges, according to the New York Post. The 32-year-old’s chiseled features and red-hot gaze had legions of Internet users transfixed — and even prompted women to ask to be “locked up with him,” says the publication. But good looks get you nowhere in the legal system, as Meeks learned upon being charged with “five weapons offenses and two counts relating to gang membership,” according to the Daily Mail. The California native served a 27-week prison sentence and was released in March 2016.

Talent agencies took notice of the viral sensation, though, and one of them — White Cross Management — was willing to forgive his criminal past and sign him to a modeling contract while he was still incarcerated, says the Independent. Since his release, Meeks has starred in major ad campaigns for brands including Givenchy, Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana, Tom Ford, and Hugo Boss. His manager says Meeks has received offers from all over the world.

The one-time forklift operator’s lucrative new modeling career has helped set Meeks on a positive new course, and his lifestyle has clearly taken a 180-degree turn. Though the former felon has posted pictures of himself posing in front of his mansion and glamorous sports car, his most recent photos show that he’s found happiness in what matters most in his life: his family.

In one pic, Meeks sports a sweet expression — in contrast to the smolder we’re used to — while standing in front of the Christmas tree with his family: his wife and their three children. He captioned the photo with hashtags that include #blessed and #godisgood.

In another, Meeks and his equally gorgeous wife, Melissa Curl, are standing in a vineyard, as he clutches her and she clutches a bottle of wine. “Celebrating our 8 year anniversary today and 50 more to go. Through thick and thin!” According to New York magazine, the pair met when she was a nurse with two children, and proceeded to have a son of their own. “Meeks was brought up in a poor household and began his life of crime after becoming involved with the Northern Crips — a branch of the notorious Los Angeles gang,” says the Daily Mail, and Curl stuck it out through all of his misguided trials and tribulations.

Though Meeks led a life of crime throughout his youth, by his manager’s account, he’s a “soft-spoken family man” who was overwhelmed by all the attention he received when his mugshot went viral. In fact, New York says that it was his shame at being arrested in 2014 that led Meeks to pose coyly with his head tilted downward — he was actually trying to cover the gang-related tattoos on his neck.

The photos on Meeks’ Instagram — where he’s garnered 623,000 fans — do depict a changed man who appears to have his values in order: They’re either modeling shots or pics of time spent with family. One group Halloween shot is particularly adorable.

His fans have been extremely supportive. While they showed up for his outer beauty — steel-blue eyes, devastating cheekbones, a plump pout, and muscles for days — they’ve stayed for his inner beauty. “Glad life is turning around for you & your family…..hope you stay blessed, humble & in abundance of wonderful opportunities, one person wrote. “The fact u love your wife is a beautiful thing. Your wife is gorgeous, congratulations,” another commented.

Meeks captioned one of his own photos “good to be home.” When home is a lavish mansion filled with the loves of your life, we imagine being there is a lot more than good; it’s pretty incredible.

And why?

Because Love Wins! Because y'all LOVE 'em!

It's either their way or no way? What makes me to beneath them to not be loved and trusted equally. I remember growing up. My gay aunt would come over and we were not allowed to use the toilet after her? I thought as a kid, 'WTF!' I go to my parents house now and say, 'What toilet should I use?' As if we are diseased.

I want to know all about it. Have you been? What's to see, where to stay? Where to drink at night?

I've seen people doxxed on 4Chan all the time.

Do you find it diminishes over time like I do? How do you keep things fresh in the bedroom? PS-It's sad that I had to put that disclaimer in my thread title on a gay website

What are some of your favorite massage porn videos? While I prefer the real thing, in person; I do enjoy watching authentic massages given by men to men.

I know, it is hard to say. It depends on how long you are here, how much you read, good day/ bad day. But generally, how generous are you in doling out your WWs?

Showing my age... any good stories?? Just watched an episode. I loved the first Darren. I Loved Paul Lynde.

I need advice about planting grapes. I purchased them in the fall and have kept them in the garage with minimal watering. I have semi-trellises to start them on, as well as a hillside and plenty of room for them to grown downhill. I need some advice on how best to encourage growth.

I bought a blueberry bush. Any ideas on how to keep it going?

What's the best way to fertilize the grapes and the blueberry bush?

I'm also planting a 20' by 40' wildflower garden in order to attract bees and birds and increase pollination for other plants. The flowers are region-specific.

He's a cutie. What do you guys think of him? Is he gay?

Would you hit this? He stands no chance of winning against Trudeau.

I'd hit it.

Just because the first thread is full and they look so hot. Who could resist a hot guy wearing short shorts?

Everyone knows about John Travolta........

How do you move past them?

I've too much stuff! Books, CDs, knick-knacks, magazines, clothes, old VHS tapes. I'm not a hoarder, everything's neatly put away. But I want to get rid of a lot of it. It's not junk, so I'm not putting it out on the street.

How do you get rid of stuff? I've already donated two big bags of clothes to a shelter, thinned out unessential items, given away dozens of books. I don't want to go back to eBay (freaky buyers, and no one seems to be bidding on things I own), and Craigslist is skeevy.

What are your preferred methods of giving away or selling stuff to people who want it?

Bobby is back! Yay!

Hanner is back and Ben is gone. Boo!

Very nice bruh

I'm 36. When I was in 6th grade I had a typing class. On electric typewriters. It seems insane now that, in the 1990s, kids were still taking typing classes. Anyway, because of typing conventions on typewriters, I was taught the two spaces after a period rule and it just became sense memory for me. Even though I know that in the computer and mobile era that two spaces are no longer necessary, I still find myself using them.

I have to imagine virtually no one younger than me uses two spaces, but let's see.

So, Datalounge, which do you use? 1 or 2 spaces? (There are four choices below based upon your period-space usage and your age)

Two men have been killed after trying to stop a man abusing two women on a train because they appeared to be Muslim, say police in Portland, Oregon.

Police arrested Jeremy Joseph Christian, 35, of North Portland, following the stabbing deaths on a MAX train at the Hollywood Transit Station at 4:30 p.m. Friday. They charged him with offenses including two counts of aggravated murder over the incident, which occurred hours before the start of the Islamic fasting month of Ramadan.

Witnesses said at least one of the women the suspect targeted was wearing a hijab, and it appeared the abuse was religiously and racially motivated.

So many people love FEUD.

I thought BIG LITTLE LIES was terrific.

And I'm not even a fan of Reese (DYKWIA) Witherspoon.

It was a pretty good movie of its kind & I've never forgotten it for some reason.

Otherwise, I liked it.

[quote] A bill supported by Keenan, Star, and more than a dozen other Californians who’ve been granted nonbinary status makes its way through the California state legislature. The proposed law would establish a third, nonbinary gender option on state-issued identity documents (driver’s licenses, ID cards, and birth certificates) for California’s 39 million residents. The whole state — not just a handful of its county courts — would recognize nonbinary citizens. And it would become easier for nonbinary people, bureaucratically, to obtain this recognition. It’s a fairly radical act — a state-sanctioned challenge of rigidly held beliefs about boys and girls and the space in between — and one expected to trickle down to other progressive states, and perhaps beyond.

Vine star Jay Versace and Mindless Behavior member Princeton Perez are in the midst of a major feud. Versace was tired of being “harassed” by Perez, so he took to social media to share some of the messages that the two had exchanged privately. Versace said he did so because he wanted to be “left alone.” Versace said that he told Perez that he was going to share the messages if the nastiness didn’t stop.

When Perez didn’t listen, Versace shared the messages publicly. According to Boombox, the messages that Versace and Perez shared were “intense and scathing.” In those messages, Versace outed Perez, which caused social media to light up.

I see guys like this every once in a while, but it's kind of rare. I think their backgrounds may be a number of things: Irish, Scottish, French, Italian, Cuban, or Spanish - though I don't really know entirely. Anyway, it's a huge turn on for me. I think I've been with maybe 3 or 4 guys like this in 20 years. Who else likes this type? Where have you met them?

I feel like laughing. So many funny clips out there - is there one that you keep going back to over and over?

THEN JUST WALK AWAY!!!

WE DON'T HAVE TOMORROW!!!!

BUT CUNTS! WE HAD YESTERDAY!!!!!

You are looking around on Netflix, Hulu, Amazon or a free streaming site. You see a lot films you've never even heard of, so you read the reviews. You also look and see if you recognize the names of any actors in the film.

Which actor names automatically make you stop reading, pass on the film, and go read a different film?

Me?

I was at a stoplight waiting for it to turn green so I could head over to the 7-11 a block away. The light turned green. The car in front of me didn't move. I waited. Then waited some more. Then I honked. The person slowly drove away. They drove so slowly I figured they were being passive aggressive because I honked at them. Then they turned right into the same 7-11 I was going to. Fun! They stepped on their brakes a few times for no reason. I followed them and parked right next to them.

We both got out of ours cars. The lady who emerged told me I needed to relax. I told her she needed to pay more attention when she was driving. She told me again I needed to relax. I told her she needed to fuck off. that shut her up. Not another word from her as I walked into the store and she fumbled with something in the back seat of her car. I emerged from the store heading back to my car as we passed, she with her child in tow. She didn't make eye contact.

I would have went off on this person if she were a guy, but I'm sure I'll get all kinds of sexist comments.

When liberals eat their own.

Cannot wait to see this.

[quote]120 Beats per Minute gets the Grand Prix

[quote]It is one of the very best films at Cannes: a defiant, passionate, heartwrenching and in its way euphoric movie about the ACT UP movement in Paris in the late 80s and early 90s, campaigning aggressively for the complacent political establishment and bland careerists of Big Pharma to do something about Aids research. It is a film whose emotional force builds progressively through the film; appropriately, its heartbeat maintains a steady, accumulative intensity. The largely unknown cast were all superb. It’s a film I can’t wait to see again when it is released in the UK.

I don't really get it. Don't you have to have a talent before you can be famous? I'm confused by this idea that you have to make it as a social media star in order to parlay that into a successful career doing something else. This type of "career" only seems to reward those who are good looking. Do young people even care about following people who have a discernible talent other than showing off their abs?

I watched an episode of Chasing Cameron out of curiosity and Cameron Dallas talks as if he's building this huge media empire by basically being a sell out to bigger brands, yet he doesn't display any unique ability whatsoever or have a life story that is in any way inspiring. Am I missing something?

Not a woman in sight-

Has anyone ever seen this sweet little forgotten gem? Ricki Lake and Craig Shaffer had great chemistry as the leads.

I think this will cause us to see division where none exists but others may see it as progress. What do you all think?

The Washington Examiner reports:

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., doubts the factuality of a Washington Post report published Friday that stated White House senior adviser Jared Kushner had tried to set up a secure, secret line of communication between President Trump’s campaign and the Russian government.

“You’ve got the ambassador to Russia reporting back to Moscow on an open channel, ‘Hey, Jared Kushner is going to move into the embassy.’ I don’t trust this story as far as I can throw it,” Graham told CNN “State of the Union” guest host Dana Bash.

“It makes no sense that the Russian ambassador would report back to Moscow on a channel that he most likely knows we’re monitoring. The whole story line is suspicious,” added Graham.

I'm seriously thinking about it nowadays and wondering if you ever considered or even tried taking your own life? If so ... what was your reason?

Maybe there is some hope for the future generation after all. These kids are my heroes.

I hope she gets a great deal in the divorce settlement: she gave up what was a promising comic career to raise his kids.

Keiynan Lonsdale comes clean about his sexuality. The actor best known for his role as Wally West a.k.a. Kid Flash on "The Flash" reveals that he's bisexual. "I like to change my hair, I like to take risks with how I dress, I like girls, & I like guys (yes), I like growing, I like learning, I like who I am and I really like who I'm becoming," he wrote on Instagram.

"Spent way too many years hating myself, thinking I was less valuable because I was different.. which is just untrue. A couple years ago I was able to accept myself, & it saved my life, but now I've gotten to a new road block & I feel kind of lost. I gotta take the next step & actually embrace who I am, which is pretty exciting. Not faking s**t anymore, not apologising for falling in love with people no matter their gender."

The 25-year-old star went on, "I've become bored of being insecure, ashamed, scared... no one should feel like that about themselves, especially when there is so much good life to live. Ya know more & more I see so many young people being their best / truest selves, it's f**king inspiring... so what have I been waiting for!? Who knows."

"Everyone in their own time. I hope we can all learn to embrace who we are & not judge people who aren't exactly the same as us. The truth is we are all family, we're all one. Just love. Keiy," he concluded.

Trump calls this move "Fair Trade" in line with what he has been talking about

But US citrus farmers are crying foul. They say jobs and farmland are at risk. They thought Trump was on their side.

"Something we thought was laid to rest was brought to life again," says Curt Holmes, chair of the California Citrus Mutual, an advocacy group.

Holmes argues politics overruled legitimate science, and that lifting the ban puts US jobs at risk given Argentina is one of the world's top lemon producers.

"They dwarf us," says Holmes. "There is economic concern...To allow political decisions, whatever the reason is, to trump good science is very very dangerous."

Holmes is one of the plaintiffs that is suing the USDA over its ruling on Argentine lemons. The lawsuit was filed this week.

California is far and away the top US lemon producer. Its citrus industry is worth $3.3 billion and employs about 22,000 workers, according to Holmes, who cited a study by the University of Arizona.

Holmes did not quantify how many US jobs might be at risk from Argentina's lemon imports.

The US mostly imports lemons from Mexico and Chile now, but Holmes says Argentina could soon become the top importer to the US.

You are a whore, darlin':

Today, Jill Dodd is known as a successful businesswoman and founder of international clothing brand Roxy.

But during the early 1980s, she was a young, naive model who had flown in to Cannes to party with friends when she met a short, balding and slightly overweight gentleman.

She would later learn that man was notorious billionaire arms dealer Adnan Khashoggi. And she would become his 'pleasure wife'.

The only thing that is changed is that he is sober. He hasn't been drunk, but that's about it. He is still just as mean, lazy, obnoxious , verbally abusive, and controlling as if he was drunk. I thought the relationship would be better and it's still hell. I told him it's over and he's threatening to start drinking again because I'm "abandoning" him. I told him to go right ahead I really don't care. I'm not looking for advice or sympathy or anything, but the lesson has been learned that it's not always alcohol to blame. Some guys are just cunts with or without the booze.

Whay not take the sin speck out of your own eye, and preach to someone who gives a damn. Throwing religion in the face of others can cause disdain and opposite effects on others. Thoughts.

"With the heaviest of hearts, we must share the awful news that our father, Sir Roger Moore, passed away today. We are all devastated."

This gives me hope for the future generations.

Interesting documentary on Netflix about Macron's campaign for president. He reminds me of when Bill Clinton ran for his first term. Macron was in control, spoke well, and would face down any gossip, and talk to any French citizen who opposed his ideas. Full of energy. I understand why he won.

Is it merely the holiday weekend and nutbags have time?

Is it that the paid posters are making a concerted push after this past week of terrible Trumpanzee news?

Why the sudden flood of the batshit crazy?

Please, share your stories.

I read and hear so many stories like, " I tried to get a refund on this defect purchase but the retailer jerked me around for months."

Anyone know for sure if these two have split up? Sure seems like it. They haven't been on each other's social media for a while. I did an advanced Twitter search and nada for 2017. I don't think they have announced it yet so wondering if anyone knows for sure?

The former agent — who rocked his Senate hearing and schools everyone every time he's on MSNBC — has set certain DLers' hearts aflutter.

He pings for some, is very discreet on social media and wrote an essay about his autistic daughter in which he bent over backward to avoid mentioning a wife.

Surely DC DLers know something?

...all saying that they are "bi" or in some cases "straight?"

These guys are as gay as me--and I'm 100 percent gay. Nothing bi or straight about me at all.

They're on camera all the time having sex with other men. And the 'gay for pay' line is bullshit.

UPDATE, FRIDAY PM: Refresh for updates “There’s something cultural going on.” That’s just one remark from an exhibition chief today who’s floored by what’s looking like a $177.4M opening for Disney’s live action take of Beauty and the Beast. Oh, Disney, what box office records are you breaking now? Let’s see: Beauty and the Beast is easily the best debut for a March release and pre-summer opening, deafening Batman v. Superman ($166M). If that bothers Warner Bros., then they’ll also be upset to know that Beauty and the Beast is Emma Watson’s highest opening of all-time, meaning the film beats the FSS of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 ($169.1M). Beauty is also beautiful for director Bill Condon, making it his biggest debut ever ahead of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 ($141M). On the domestic list of all-time openers, Disney will own six slots thanks to Beauty, with the musical ranking just under Marvel’s Captain America: Civil War ($179.1M) and above Iron Man 3 ($174.1M).

With an opening day of $64.5M, Beauty and the Beast ranks as the third best first day for a March release after Batman v. Superman ($81.55M) and The Hunger Games ($67.3M). Then how is Beauty and the Beast primed to outstrip those films’ respective openings of $166M and $152.5M? Essentially, Beauty and the Beast‘s weekend is expected to explode even more based on the bulk of anticipated walk-up business. Currently, some industry estimates show Saturday even with Friday’s take which includes Thursday night’s $16.3m.

No surprise, Beauty and the Beast earns an A CinemaScore, which is right in line with the audience scores for previous Disney live action canon titles The Jungle Book, Cinderella and Maleficent.

Yes, we had The Hunger Games before in this March space, but Beauty and the Beast is different pulling in attendees who don’t always frequent the movies. How do we know this? Essentially, when there’s a majority of 2D business, and in Beauty‘s case that’s at least 60%. Those who don’t attend the movies frequently will always go for 2D pricing, while the die-hards opt for Imax, PLF or 3D. Nonetheless, everyone is going to Beauty and the Beast from grandparents to the millennial girls who grew up with the property. That group between ages 18-34 rep close to 70% of Beauty‘s audience according to ComScore/Screen Engine’s PostTrak.

On CinemaScore, 72% females showed up tonight with 55% 25 and up. The under 18 set, who gave the movie an A+, represented close to a third of the audience. Also giving Beauty a perfect score were the under 25 set at 45% and 18-24.

Here’s an interesting reveal hiding in the PostTrak data amid all the hubbub of the major studios lobbying exhibition for an earlier premium streaming VOD window that could encroach on theatrical: When it comes to those who’ve just watched Beauty and the Beast, few prefer to buy or rent the movie digitally or on VOD. Did you hear that Hollywood? In fact, 24% prefer to watch the movie again in theaters, while 25% want to buy the movie on Blu-Ray, and 23% want to own Beauty and the Beast on DVD. 10% said they’d buy it digitally, while 6% or lower said they’d respectively rent it digitally or buy/rent on VOD. When you have a blockbuster this big delivering on all fronts for a major studio and its exhibition partners, do we really want to pursue the discussion of an early PVOD window? The theatrical business is booming, especially with Kong: Skull Island overperforming last weekend. At Netflix’s Los Gatos, CA headquarters today, Variety reports that CEO Reed Hastings said, “How did distribution innovate in the movie business in the last 30 years? Well, the popcorn tastes better, but that’s about it.”

Was fast food more natural back then or were there burgers exactly the same?

What do you think?!

And why does he have a lot bitcoins for a moose? Seems suspicious, no? Perhaps his friend can explain.

From the thread linked below;

[quote] The Christmas Moose saved all his peanuts for the month of April to give to his mother. He also gave her some pine cones he found along Pond Stree outside the zoo entrance. And he also asked me to buy some carrots at the Henny-Penny with some bitcoins that he had for some reason. He's got a lot of bitcoins for a moose. I had to buy for him because he's been banned from the Henny-Penny. He's a good boy, though, no argument there. Mother Moose was thrilled.

Bravo to Milo for daring to speak his truth. What a champion.

the "Students berate professor..." thread is an extreme example of this, but why is such behavior allowed? If student's barricaded themselves in the library, I'd press criminal charges. I hear the argument that it is all about enrollment . Student are now "consumers" and the universities feel that they need to give the consumer what he/she wants. The argument really doesn't work. I would imagine if a university had a zero tolerance policy to such behavior, whining about what one wears on Halloween , and self created pronouns, the university would be quite a draw for those who are seriously looking for an education.

PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — Two people were killed and one other was injured in a stabbing on the MAX near the Hollywood Transit Center Friday evening.

The stabbing happened between the Lloyd Center and Hollywood TC stops around 5 p.m. Witnesses told KOIN 6 News the suspect was yelling about hating Muslims and other things for several minutes before people confronted him, possibly trying to defend a woman wearing a Hijab.

Police said there were 2 young women, one wearing a Hijab being harassed by the suspect. Those women left the scene but police would like to speak to them.

Witnesses said one of the victims was stabbed in the neck and passengers rushed to help them.

Portland police said one man was found suffering from traumatic injuries and first responders attempted to save his life, but he died at the scene. Two other victims were taken to the hospital, where one died and the other is expected to survive.

According to witnesses, the suspect said he was going to get off the MAX at the next stop and said no one should follow him.

Portland police took the suspect into custody near the Providence hospital after he ran south into the nearby neighborhood. Police are not sure what lead the man to attack and said it’s unclear if he was on drugs or suffering from a men

“It’s horrific, there’s no other word to describe what happened today,” Sgt. Pete Simpson said. “For the victims, our thoughts and prayers are with their families… for the witnesses, there is no other word it is simple awful.”

Simpson said these deaths are the 8th and 9th homicides in Portland this year.

TriMet said red, green and blue line trains are not running and the MAX platform is closed.

Homicide detectives will be investigating at the transit center for several hours.

The Multnomah County Health Call Center is offering its services for anyone involved in the incident on the MAX.

[quote] After today’s tragic stabbing event on a TriMet MAX train, Multnomah County reminds residents that its Mental Health Call Center is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week for people who may be in crisis, despondent or feel they need to talk with someone after this traumatic event. Trained operators are available at 503-988-4888. Individuals can also call toll-free to 800-716-9769. The hearing impaired can dial 711 to be connected to the center.

I can't watch it anymore.

All of my favorite liberal/progressives have been sidelined by the network, in favor of right wingers.

Rachel Maddow used to air twice a night, with a late evening re-run for those who missed her show earlier. Now it's been replace by the Brian Williams shit-show "The 11th hour." Really? Replacing your highest rated show with your lowest?

And now they've hired McCain campaign manager Nicole Wallace, CNBC Conservative Ali Velshi, CNBC Conservative Stephanie Ruehl, all gay Conservative Steve Kornacki.

All while firing diehard progressives like Tamron Hall, Thomas Roberts, and others.

If anyone here works for MSNBC, please let the powers-that-be know this: IF I WANTED TO WATCH FOX NEWS, I WOULD BE WATCHING FOX NEWS.

If they are going to insist on turning MSNBC into a right-wing propaganda network of "Fox News light," headed by Joe Scarborough and other republican lackeys, then I'll stop watching. Period.

FUCK MSNBC.

Like the season's title Archer: Dreamland says it's all a dream Archer is having while recovering in hospital. I was afraid how it'd turn out but it was great. I hope to see more of Ray Gillette this season but I'm not holding my breath.

Oh, brother.

This won't end well and now they're kids involved.

Kieron still looks like a twink who hits the circuit.

I felt like Constance to the barista's Moira.

Any fans of him on DL? Feel free to reminisce about Coast to Coast AM here.

Texas is competing with Florida for worst Redneck hellhole.

And whenever I see a redaction does that mean it was automatically triggered though some program on their site or DL's? Or does Muriel scrutinize each post and then redact if she happens to catch it? Isn't that the whole point of internet news though, to garner enough links and clicks to spread your stories? I don't understand.

And DO they suck? I know Muriel thinks they do, but what's sucky about them? I think the Huffington Post sucks but those links are allowed.

Hot Spanish actor. Appeared in an X-Men movie but otherwise hasn't broken into public awareness in the US. Sketchy dating history. Subject of frequent conversation in the Ben Barnes threads because he spends a suspicious amount of time with Ben.

White trash bitch alert from The Wall Street Journal. I'm sure she was molested by her dad too.

[Blind Gossip] This young actress has already won major accolades. Her talent is no secret… but her relationship with her man always has people whispering and asking questions!

Want some answers? Of course you do! And, luckily for you, they come from someone very close to him.

Is he gay?

[quote]I know he pings pretty hard (as gay), but he likes to say that he is not gay, he is pansexual. He will sleep with anyone. He says that his attraction to other people is not about the gender, it’s about the mind.

Are they really a couple?

[quote]That’s more difficult to answer. They are good friends and spend a lot of time together, so if that makes them a couple, then they are a couple. He likes the attention he gets from being seen with her. However, she is too old for him and not really his type. He likes them very young, as close to 18 as possible. He is very sexual and he likes to f*ck a lot of different young boys and young girls. She knows all this.

Did he have a relationship with [that boybander]?

[quote]Let’s just say that those rumors have a lot of merit to them. He still gets teased about it a lot.

Anything else we should know about him?

[quote]He is very artsy and eccentric and a big fan of c*caine.

That doesn’t exactly sound like marriage material to us, but perhaps we are missing something here.

I wasn't familiar with him, a gay chef who helped invent California cuisine at Berkeley's Chez Panisse. He went on to found the lauded San Francisco restaurant Stars in the '80s. He was also fired from his position as executive chef at Tavern on the Green a couple of years ago.

Anyone remember Stars or early Chez Panisse and can describe? Anyone ever met Tower?

we were walking around where they've built these new apartments by the river (in London) this morning and they've put in a pond behind one of the buildings - with pebbles and there's a little bridge going over it.

It was delightful.

I guess it's a sort of Japanese thing. But this wasn't Japanese in style. Very simple.

But they're lovely this kind of thing.

No goldfish though. Very clear.

I love fountains, too. They should put fountains in where they build these characterless places. Unfortunately, idiots jump in and people throw their crap in (& worse) and before you know it it's all been concreted over.

Do you like man made ponds with bridges and fountains and the like?

I saw Richard Marx and a very small venue years ago. Disgustingly skinny, and a pompous jerk. Sorry I went along with my friends. Bad concert.

Men, straight, gay or otherwise are not hesitant to use them. But I've never heard of female hookers that cater exclusively to women. Can someone explain this?

because they have had so many criminal business deals with Russia. Anyone with a brain has seen what has been going on and once you understand the rather simple facts of this criminal situation, it is hard to sit by and hear all the pundit bullshit. The investigators need to stop playing around with our country, arrest Jared and force Trump to resign. HE IS FILTH AND IS DESTROYING OUR COUNTRY.

Tom Daley. Seriously. He's got a little goblin face and weird eyes. In 5 years' time he'll look gross. I HATE when gay guys assume he's drop dead gorgeous. I bet deep down half of them don't, but they're just too scared not to go with the crowd.

Usain Bolt. Hot bod. Fuggers from the neck up.

Poor self-deluded, greedy Miles was offered the lead in La La Land before Ryan Gosling but wanted too much money. He must be seriously regretting that decision after Bleed For This bombed last year.

But Miles' body (if not his face) is looking good!

Kyle Chandler

What does the DL say?

Is there such a thing as the perfect Broadway showtune?

Good Christ.

I have friends who cannot stand each other. She states she stays with her partner because of their children? They fight all the time. What is harder on children divorce or fighting. So done with her complaining about her wife. I know divorce is difficult. But either shut up and make it work, or leave. Stop complaining. I sound like a bitch, but enough already.

Does anyone care about Avatar any more?

Doesn't everyone just want Star Wars Land and the inevitable Marvel Land?

Kathleen Wynne is sitting at 12% currently.

What went wrong? Can she still recover?

Can't wait to what little Ms. Tickle Ivories has in store for us. Digging the overall concept of the album.

[quote]“The songs on ‘Native Invader’ are being pushed by the Muses to find different ways of facing unforeseen challenges and in some cases dangerous conflicts. The record looks to Nature and how, through resilience, she heals herself. The songs also wrestle with the question: what is our part in the destruction of our land, as well as ourselves, and in our relationships with each other?

[quote]In life there can be the shock of unexpected fires, floods, earthquakes, or any cataclysmic ravager – both on the inside and outside of our minds. Sonically and visually, I wanted to look at how Nature creates with her opposing forces, becoming the ultimate regenerator through her cycles of death and re-birth. Time and time again she is able to renew, can we find this renewal for ourselves?”

Searched and couldn't find any current thread available, so starting this one for us literate types.

Listening to the audio of POND by Claire-Louise Bennett. Talk about a love-hate relationship with a book for me! Much of the time each sentence quasi-repeats the one before as a style, which can grow VERY annoying. However, the idea if a self-absorbed woman with no real life is proving a fascinating premise, and a fine criterion for Datalounge membership as well!

Post bears here. No human bears, please.

I don't see excellence here. Maybe it was just the style of the times.

I've been reading about online jobs and found this. You are paid to do searches on a particular search engine and give your opinion on how accurate the results are. It's interesting and sounds great for a few hours a day. Any search engine evaluators here? Does anyone know of any companies hiring?

I work in a university and Chinese international students and staff surpass even Africans in their rudeness. Their opinions of women (and especially of American POC) would make your average frat boy baulk.

Yelling at staff, swearing at students, eating and smoking everywhere they shouldn't and acting like entitled pricks. I honestly think their foul manner is because those that get to work and study West in competitive fields come from families high up in the Party, they never bother to learn manners.

Immigrants from other sexist societies with enormous class divisions have problems but the vast majority are a few generations into the upper-middle classes and even if they despise everyone else around them, they know how to behave to get on.

The Chinese men don't give a fuck about being liked. However they don't realise this leads to them not being respected and they become self-pitying and aggressive. Honestly, this is a bigger reason as to their well-publicised dating failures and self-loathing.

Does that just mean he will sleep with anyone if it benefits him?

We had the other thread talking about missing people, and we segued into heavily discussing this series. Let's talk about the show here.

Who watched the latest episode about Brandy Hall, a female firefighter who went missing? Her husband was a high ranking police officer and was caught with cannabis. She lost her job because of him, and she was due to be a character witness in his trial the day she disappeared. She was also having an affair with another married firefighter. They found her truck in the river, but not her. They found her backpack miles away in another river, and that river didn't connect to the one where her truck was discovered, so the bag didn't float downstream. They dragged the rivers and never found her body. The man she was having the affair with said that she told him that night on the phone that she was leaving. Her husband's story checked out. He was in jail when they found her truck. He was sent away for the marijuana charge. The guy who she was having the affair with, apparently was ruled out as was his wife. There was rumor that the drugs her husband picked up were part of some large drug cartel, and they bumped her off when she was due to talk in court. Apparently, the pot was sold by some local farming people who were just getting started selling it. There was no drug cartel.

Any thoughts to those who saw it?

Discuss the other episodes here too! I always go on the web seeing if I can find updates on the people featured. They did find one person, and many of the episodes make the news because thousands of tips begin coming in to authorities, even ones deemed cold cases. Very interesting.

ILIGAN CITY, Philippines — ISIS-linked militants swept through a southern Philippine city, beheading a police chief, burning buildings, seizing a Catholic priest and his worshipers and raising the black flag of the group, authorities said Wednesday. President Rodrigo Duterte, who had declared martial law across the southern third of the nation, warned he may expand it nationwide. At least 21 people have died in the fighting, officials said.

As details of the attack in Marawi city emerged, fears mounted that the largest Roman Catholic nation in Asia could be falling into a growing list of countries grappling with the spread of influence from ISIS in Syria and Iraq.

The violence erupted Tuesday after the army raided the hideout of Isnilon Hapilon, a commander of the Abu Sayyaf militant group who has pledged allegiance to ISIS. He is on Washington's list of most-wanted terrorists with a $5 million reward for information leading to his capture.

We are in a state of emergency," Duterte said Wednesday after he cut short a trip to Moscow and flew back to Manila. "I have a serious problem in Mindanao and the ISIS footprints are everywhere."

He declared martial rule for 60 days in the entire Mindanao region — home to 22 million people — and vowed to be "harsh." "If I think that you should die, you will die," he said. "If you fight us, you will die. If there is open defiance, you will die. And if it means many people dying, so be it." But he said he would not allow abuses and that law-abiding citizens had nothing to fear.

A story of such importance that it made the Associated Press wire.

About to drop via LPSG's Celebrity section. Just giving you the heads up!

Surely I'm not the only gay man who collected the in-store playlists for Gap stores while he worked there? I worked for Gap from 1992 to 2006, and each month, a new CD (or cassette pre-1998) would arrive to play in the stores for the designated month. Along with it came a playlist with all of the songs and artists listed in order (each CD or tape was a full four hours),

I loved the music and I would keep the paper playlists for each month that I worked there, using them to build my music collection. So many different styles throughout the years, with a great selection of Nineties music, both well-known and obscure.

In February 2006, I lost the box that I kept the playlists in. I later found a cache of duplicates that I had stored away, and with that, I began the work of reconstructing each month for the years I worked for Gap. I had already been buying music since 1992 and putting the songs into folders but I had not gotten around to making full-on playlists for every month.

I'm looking for scans or photos of any Gap in-store playlists from 1992 to March 2006. I buy my songs from iTunes, and, if they are not available there, I buy used CDs; NO illegal downloading at all. Nor is there advertising on my site, so this is not "advertising" or trying to get clicks. I'm just trying to make my playlist collection complete.

The site shows how to contact me if ANYONE is able to help me out.

1992 was really great with all kinds of House music, endless Annie Lennox, and the beginning of the resurgence of Disco!

Hoping it will make me less self conscious.

Just spitballing here: has anyone ever considered setting up regional Datalounges? I don't know how popular the site is, but I wonder if there'd be enough users interested in a UK DL, an Aussie DL etc? So many times I've wanted to discuss a local Aussie matter on here but have stopped myself because it would be shit boring for the rest of the world. Anyway, just a thought.

OMG!

Cris Carter says Odell Beckham Jr. admitted he was upset about homophobic slurs that were hurled at him before the infamous Giants vs. Panthers game in 2015 ... and insinuated the slurs came from Josh Norman.

Carter appeared on "Undisputed" on FS1 and talked about the conversation he had with Odell on Thursday during a workout at an L.A. gym.

Carter says they spoke about OBJ's rivalry with Josh Norman -- and Cris said it was very clear "homophobic" slurs (along with other disrespectful comments) set him off that day.

Nick Wright -- who's co-hosting 'First Things First' with Carter -- also spoke with Beckham and said Odell mocked the media for constantly speculating about his sexuality.

Whether or not Trump gets impeached, resigns, dies in office, is a 1 term or (hopefully not( 2 terms, how will his and his family's post-gov life be? We know there are a lot of rich liberals but there are plenty of rich conservatives. Will the Trumps/Kushner be ostracized or socialites will accept them again as if nothing ever happened? We know the public at large will scorn them

Any famous guys?

As I said, most people who play with gender norms like butch women don’t identify as trans so it’s a little wobbly. I think in a year or two, more people will.”

Loving this..more...more!

A sizzling new book that dishes up sensational details of Michael Jackson’s love life with Lisa Marie Presley claims sex with him is a scream - literally! She told a pal that Michael starts singing when he approaches the height of ecstasy - then lets loose with his trademark high pitched screeches, according to author Anthony Gregoreli. And Lisa Marie LOVED it! Hard to believe?

Here are some of the eye-popping revelations in the book: Lisa Marie had wild sex with Jackson before marrying him - because she wanted to make sure he could perform his husbandly duties. They were spending a weekend at Donald trumps Florida mansion when she pulled him into bed. She claims they were intimate all night - and oddly enough, he preferred making love love while standing up! After that Thriller sex session with a real stand-up guy, Lisa Marie told a pal: “It was absolutely wild. He was slow getting started, then he just wanted more and more”. She said that when Michael began screeching, she couldn’t help laughing.

Despite all the racket, Elvis’ daughter later told her pal it was the best sex she’d ever had. In fact, she called Michael “a hot little number”. Lisa Marie moved into Michael’s neverland Valley Ranch while she was still married to unknown musician hubby Danny Keough. The relationship grew closer when Lisa Marie stood by Michael after he was accused of child abuse in 1993. Slowly, the friendship turned to love. But not for Michael’s house hold staff. They thought she was rude and snotty to them, sort of a Leona Helmsley in training.

Lisa Marie and Elizabeth Taylor fought like cats and dogs over Michael. After he began overdoing drugs during his child abuse scandal, longtime pal Liz wanted him to check into a rehab clinic. When Lisa Marie said she wanted to be there to give Michael support, Liz Objected. The two women had a HUGE cat fight. But Lisa Marie won the round and escorted Michael into treatment in London.

Round two erupted when Liz pressured Michael to sing a big solo number on a Jackson family TV special in 1994. He didn’t want the spotlight, but she said he owed it to his fans. Lisa Marie exploded and screamed at Liz “Leave him alone! He knows what he’s doing!” Once again, she won. Although Michael joined in a family chorus at the special’s end, he didn’t sing by himself.

I'm assuming Brandon is inactive or retired, so it should be an easy debate.

After the original came down, a variety of potential designs were submitted, some gorgeous, some not so gorgeous. I thought the planning commission had settled upon something truly innovative for its time, but they seemed to get cold feet at the eleventh hour, and changed course to the design that was ultimately built, which itself is a watered down version of the design originally presented as the final design.

In the end, though, there are some days when the light hits the building just right, and almost seems to shine right through the building, and I think it's quite beautiful. And the fact that building is actually an octagon is pretty mind-blowing when you stop to think about it. That was pretty clever.

I have not been inside the building yet. I am interested in hearing from those of you who have been. But first, I want to know what you think of the building, and particularly how you think it compares to its predecessor.

White House Excludes Gay First Spouse of Luxembourg From Photo Caption

By Chris Riotta, 5/27/17 at 6:08 PM

Updated | The White House Facebook page failed to acknowledge First Gentleman of Luxembourg Gauthier Destenay, married to Prime Minister Xavier Bettel, in a post featuring the spouses of world leaders attending this week’s G7 summit in Sicily. The photo caption included the names of every other spouse, all of them wives, beginning with: "First Lady Melania Trump poses with Belgium’s Queen Mathilde, center, and other spouses of NATO leaders."

The omission of Destenay's name in the official White House post remained for at least six hours on Saturday before The Guardian staff writer Scott Bixby shared a screenshot on Twitter, writing: "Is there a reason the White House didn't include the First Gentleman of Luxembourg in this photo caption? Like, a non-homophobic one?"

It remained unclear as of Saturday night why the post failed to include the first gentleman of Luxembourg, the only homosexual spouse included in the photo. The White House did not immediately respond to request for comment.

The photo, taken by White House photographer Andrea Hanks, shows Melania Trump front and center with Queen Mathilde, surrounded by First Gentleman Gauthier Destnary of Luxembourg, First Lady Emine Erdoğan of Turkey, Iceland’s Thora Margret Baldvinsdottir, First Lady of France Brigitte Trogneux, Slovenia’s Mojca Stropnik, Bulgaria’s Desislava Radeva, Belgium’s Amélie Derbaudrenghien and Norway’s Ingrid Schulerud.

The photo caption’s omission was immediately noticed by countless users from around the world, who denounced the glaring absence as a sign of either incompetency or anti-LGBT attitudes.

"The omission of the the First Gentleman of Luxembourg name is blatantly disrespectful and just goes to show the level of idiotacy of this White House staff," one user named Nick Jackman wrote. "Wow. No mention of the Luxembourg spouse? He still exists even if you try to ignore the fact he is a homosexual you dimwit," wrote another.

Many accused them of stealing by looking into the windows without permission

The season is actually not really over yet as there is the World Team Trophy at the end of the month but the other thread reached 600 comments

So the most important questions left for the upcoming months:

- how many La La Land programs will we get to see next season?

- how many underwear shots will Guillaume instagram during the summer?

- how many gifts from his suger daddies will Deniss get for his 18th birthday this August?

- for the nostalgics, how good figure skating used to be compared now?

Let's reach a consensus.

Whitesnake are a rock band formed in England in 1978 by David Coverdale, after his departure from his previous band Deep Purple. Their early material has been compared by critics to the blues rock of Deep Purple, but they slowly began moving toward a more commercially accessible rock style. By the turn of the decade, the band's commercial fortunes changed and they released a string of UK top 10 albums, Ready an' Willing (1980), Come an' Get It (1981), Saints & Sinners (1982) and Slide It In (1984), the last of which was their first to chart in the US and is certified 2x platinum.

The band's 1987 self-titled album was their most commercially successful worldwide, and contained two major US hits, "Here I Go Again" and "Is This Love", reaching number one and two on the Billboard Hot 100. The album went 8 times platinum in the US, and the band's success saw them nominated for the 1988 Brit Award for Best British Group. Slip of the Tongue (1989), was also a success, reaching the top 10 in the UK and the US, and received a platinum US certification. The band split up shortly after this release, but had a reunion in 1994, and released a one-off studio album, Restless Heart (1997).

Whitesnake officially reformed in 2002 and have been touring together since, releasing three studio albums, Good to Be Bad (2008), Forevermore (2011) and The Purple Album (2015). In 2005, Whitesnake were named the 85th greatest hard rock band of all time by VH1.

How did people come across her scat videos?

Doesn't that make her the biggest stinkfish of them all?

Had to unfollow Mr Bomer. Just couldn't read one more self-congratulatory comment. Between "Look at the great thing I just did" and the name dropping, would cringe when he came up on the feed. Thought there maybe a return to the pleasant guy of yore when he called someone who is not a household name his best friend, but it didn't last. He's a pretty thing to look at, but he seems to be taking too much advice from Gaga about self-promotion.

Schwartzy's getting married! When the preacher asks if anyone objects, Sandoval will be the first one up.

I can't figure it out. Thanks.

The best and most talented gymnast in the history of American Gymnastics! Always the strongest, most graceful, powerful, gymnast in the lot whose technical difficulty surpassed any other bitch I had the misfortune of training alongside with and being overshadowed by! (Looking at you and your fucking scrunchie, Shannon).

Determined, focused, and the sole reason America won its first ever Olympic Team Gold. I'm also the lone reason the US has since dominated the sport! And I did it all on one leg!!!

And don't you bitches dare bring up how odd it is that I am essentially the only gymnast who never managed to win an individual World or Olympic medal!!!

All these threads about other gymnasts are null and void because they should have been about the most courageous and beautiful gymnast the sport ever created.

Always overlooked but always the class of the field, I am Kerri Strug!

I've been having this weird fantasy recently. You see, I'm a strict bottom and have been married with my husbear for just over four years. We're both poz and in our late 40s. My husbear's beer can thick and drills my mancunt regularly. Our relationship is fairly open - I still like taking anonymous loads, both poz and neg. We both remember cruising in the 80s, and nothing gives me a rush like getting fucked at a truck stop by a nasty, greasy, unwashed trucker. But I digress - I have one thought occupying my mind. I want my husbear's baby.

Yes, you heard me right. I want his assbaby. I want him to knock me up with his potent, toxic seed, and give me a tainted baby, the first man born of men. Our son would be a god among men, hung like a stallion, and build and ripped as fuck. We would both bottom for him. I've begun to jack off regularly thinking of this (I like the idea of being knocked up). Anyone else had a male pregnancy fantasy here? Is this healthy?

The old thread is full... starting a new thread with this:

I guess they thought nobody would notice or care. This is the kind of shit they get away with when we're not vigilant.

President Trump rounded out his first foreign trip since taking office by joining other G7 leaders as they walked the streets of Taormina, Sicily.

There was just one difference: as the leaders of the UK, France, Germany, Italy, Canada, and Japan walked on foot, Trump followed in a golf cart, The Times of London reported on Saturday.

“They walked the 700 yards from the traditional G7 group photo, taken at a Greek amphitheatre, to a piazza in the hilltop town, but Mr Trump stayed behind until he could take a seat in the electric vehicle,” The Times reported.

It also noted that Trump arrived last for the photo as the 6 other leaders stood waiting for him.

The 6 other member nations are planning to push Trump to change his policies on free trade and combatting climate change.

“We will make an important declaration today here in Taormina on climate change, on great migrant flows, on free trade in the world on which so many jobs depend,” said Italian prime minister Paolo Gentiloni.

At one point in her career, she was the "director's choice," starring in more dramatic films such as "Girl with a Pearl Earring," "Lost in Translation," "The Island," "Match Point." "The Other Boleyn Girl," and "The Prestige."

Now she's doing "The Hangover Girls" movies, like "Rough Night"???

What happened?

After his dick pixxx leaked, he comes out.

Memorial Day was alternately called Decoration Day, a day to decorate the graves of the dead. People used to have picnics at the graves of loved ones. People still clean markers and place flowers, of course.

A Memorial Day holiday was in practice in the South since 1866. It is attributed to the ladies of Columbus, Georgia. The practice was copied in the North by May 1868. It was inspired by the great loses following the Civil War.

Yesterday I was using a bathroom in a department store and had to wait until someone else was done with a stall.

Upon his exiting, I see that he made a mess peeing all over the toilet seat and before I can even make some snide comment, the millennial hipster, beard glasses, knit hat and all, has already darted out the door. I clean the mess and get on with my business.

After I leave the bathroom who do I see greeting his girlfriend who has just come out of the ladies room but chubby hipster himself, being all lovey Dover and touchy touchy with her.

I was five seconds away from blurting "excuse me Miss, do you know that your boyfriend makes a huge mess when he pees and then doesn't wash his hands (yeah the very same ones that just caressed your face) afterwards?"

Why didn't I? Because I've been that mouthy person for most of my life and I'm trying to restrain my ways when it comes to other people's business. Had he been alone, maybe I would have said something. But I didn't see why his girlfriend needed the humiliation. Even if I thought she could use the information, it's still none of my business because maybe she already knows and doesn't care, or more likely yet, no one appreciates public drama about their loved one.

What would you have done? Have you been in similar situations?

Holy Shit and true WTF moment. NOTHING about this looks good. Lots of shot for shot moments only proves it's inferiority. No one could ever accuse Patrick Swayze of being a good actor, but he was a great movie star. Just NO.

I spend all my free time online, I go to antique malls and shops, I look on ebay, I buy DVDs of old movies and TV shows that I like.

I'm constantly trying to find something that will make me happy or feel like I used to but when I think I've found it the feeling is fleeting.

Some days I drive aimlessly through my city and I don't know what I'm doing, or where I'm going, or what I'm trying to find.

It's like I'm waiting for an epiphany to come out of nowhere like a lighting bolt.

I see a pattern.

What are some of the strangest videos you've seen on the internet?

Zac Efron sinks like a stone. Who thought this was a good idea? Anyone with a brain knows there is no public interest in this or King Arthur. And it doesn't help that the movie seems to have nothing to do with the show besides they're both set on beaches. It doesn't have the same characters, tone, drama. Instead it's a dumb Hangover comedy. Why did they even need the Baywatch name for that? Moviegoers also complained that there were too many penises and not enough boobs. People watch Baywatch to see bouncing boobs goddammit and they couldn't even get that right. SMH. Moviegoers give it a CinemaScore of C+. 80% of the audience was under 35 and 95% were male.

Sad.

Get Out by Jordan Peele. Have to say i have always hated Peele. He is not funny or clever. His movie fails as comedy. I never laughed once. It fails as drama. Actors are crying all the time but the obviously fake tears did nothing but annoy me. It fails as satire. Nothing about the movie spoke to me or seemed like genuine black culture. Every character annoyed me. And i usually love Catherine Keener. If you have not seen it stay the fuck away. Like most of the trolls on here i gave it 0/1000.

She was the great second bananan in two shows, Brady Bunch and Bob Cummings.

But she never got a spin-off because the networks were anti-lez.

So let's figure out a plot for her spin off.

The title could be Aunty Lez for instance and she plays a photographer's assistant running a boarding house for lesbians on the side. Co starring Nancy Kulp and Sheila James

Season 34 Finale continued here.

[quote]Why did I agreed to marry a man who is Same Sex Attracted? I’ll do my best to explain that in this post. To me, Aaron isn’t a same-sex attracted man. He is just…..Aaron. My Aaron.I have always asked God to give me eyes only for my husband. With the Lord’s perfect timing, and good sense of humor, I saw Aaron for the first time and said, “Nope, no thanks, not interested”. We laugh about it now, but that was my first impression of Aaron. It wasn’t our time, yet.Months later, I was surprised to find myself with Aaron in God’s perfect timing. The Lord changed my eyes for him forever. I have no other explanation, other than I got to know him as a friend, and God gave me eyes for him. Our dating began after a friendship developed first.

[quote]There was always something that set Aaron apart from others I have dated in the past. Does it have to do with his same-sex attraction? I’m not sure. Maybe he just cared for me more than others have. Perhaps our personalities meshed better. Maybe growing up same-sex attracted gave him a different perspective when it came to relationships. Aaron was different from the guys I usually went for. He wasn’t my type, so I was surprised to find out how well we worked.He told me he was same-sex attracted on our 4th or 5th date. I was in total shock! I cried with friends, I processed and I prayed. At the end of panic, in the quiet times, I only saw Aaron. He is one of the greatest men I have ever met. We all struggle with something. Could I turn my back to him for that?His wisdom, transparency and timing was everything. It created a foundation of trust and openness that I will always be grateful for. Because he let me decide for myself so early on, gave me a greater a respect for him that I can’t describe. He didn’t trick me into this. He wasn’t using me. He’s never been deceitful about his feelings. He let me in and that created a bond that’s unbreakable.

[quote]Throughout his life being same-sex attracted, he has always stood firm in his faith, conviction, trust, hope and love for God. He has incredible restraint and self-control. He has been open and honest with people, sought council, surrounded himself with accountability and mentors. I know it must have been so hard. In my opinion, he lives a life that I whole heartedly respect. How could I fault him and discount his faithfulness to God? How could I turn away from a man who possessed qualities I long to have myself? He was someone I wanted to lead my family. He was someone I knew would make a great husband and father. He was everything I never knew I wanted. Aaron isn’t perfect. Heck, I’m definitely not perfect. Aaron will let me down in life from time to time. That is a guarantee. The only promise I have of perfection is in God. God is the only one that will never let me down. I know Aaron will struggle. I know that from time to time his mind will wander. Just because we are married, doesn’t mean the same-sex attraction will magically go away. It’s a part of who he is. My hope is that he keeps his eyes fixed on God, so that when his mind does wander, it won’t wander too far or for too long. I knew going into this relationship that this would be a part of him forever and I’m okay with that.If same-sex attraction was the only reason I could think of to not pursue a relationship with him, was that reason enough? For me it wasn’t. And for me, his character and obedience to God gave me hope to see what God had for us. Let me tell you, God did have a plan for us. Our life together is a beautiful, wonderful, fulfilling life. It is a life of love, truth in who we are, trust in each other and happiness thanks to our good, good Lord.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Barbra Streisand is mourning the loss of her beloved dog, Sammie.

The 75-year-old star announced the news on her social media accounts Saturday, saying “we cherish every moment of the 14 years we had with her.”

On her Instagram page, Streisand has posted numerous photos of herself doting on the fluffy white Coton de Tulear, also known as the “Royal Dog of Madagascar.”

Streisand is fond of the breed and has had several Coton de Tulear in the past.

Streisand once told British newspaper The Independent Sammie is “like the daughter I never had.”

I do like some older men. Ones that still look good for their age and that take of themselves or at least know how to have an interesting conversation.

From the wiki entry: "I Don't Care" is a 1905 song, words by Jean Lenox, music by Harry O. Sutton, originally performed by Eva Tanguay, becoming her most famous song. It was published by Jerome H. Remick & Co., New York, performed in the Ziegfeld Follies of 1909 and recorded by Eva Tanguay in 1922. It was also recorded by Judy Garland, Mitzi Gaynor and Eydie Gorme among others, sometimes with additional lyrics.

A single-payer healthcare system in California — a galvanizing cause among the state's progressive flank — would cost $400 billion annually, according to a legislative analysis released on Monday.

The analysis, released in advance of the proposal's hearing in a key fiscal committee, fills in what has so far been the biggest unanswered question concerning the plan to dramatically overhaul California's healthcare coverage.

The analysis found that the proposal would require:

- A total cost of $400 billion per year to cover all healthcare and administrative costs.

- Of that, $200 billion of existing federal, state and local funds could be repurposed to go toward the single-payer system.

- The additional $200 billion would need to be raised from new taxes.

... The write-up also notes that a universal healthcare proposal would likely reduce spending by employers and employees statewide, which currently ranges between $100 billion and $150 billion annually. Therefore, the total new spending under the bill would be between $50 billion and $100 billion each year.

Under the bill, the state would cover medical care for every resident in California, including those without legal immigration status. Enrollees would not have to pay premiums, co-payments or deductibles.

Finally, some good news for 2017.

When Lil Yachty unveiled the artwork for his debut studio offering Teenage Emotions (out May 26), it elicited criticism and praise alike for his demonstration of inclusion. On Tuesday (May 16), Yachty posted a video on Instagram explaining the buzzy album cover.

Seated in the midst of a gay couple kissing, a female with vitiligo and teenagers of other ethnicities is an ebullient Yachty on the album's artwork. "I wanted to have all these aspects of teenage life...so I thought about all the things I saw in high school for the first time, that I had never experienced before," he says in the clip. "I have never seen two guys kissing until high school.

"I've never seen albino kids until high school, I've never seen emo kids until high school," he continued.

Continued discussion on Season 7 where we're left wondering such things as:

-How many times a day does Mauricio slip away so Farrah can take care of him? Does Kyle already know?

-How often does Dorit have to milk PK? And will PK ever get to hold a glass of bubbly in the opening credits? Or are they too busy doing coke?

-When will Rinna start selling Harry's pies on QVC? And does he throw a Xanax in her pie too?

- Will Eileen find a story line that doesn't involve randomly getting yelled at for no reason? Or will she just continue to bore everyone by being a non-entity?

- Does Erika continue to cry at night, not because of her son, but because her only friend Mikey has reverse eyebrows?

- Will we ever know what happened to Ken? And what animal will LVP start to collect for her next story line?

- Will Eden ever meet up with and murder her anonymous lover?

-And of course... the only thing anyone cares about... Kim, Kim, Kim, Kim, Kim!

Will anyone be turning in this Saturday?

President Trump is quick to condemn Muslim terrorist attacks, but he has been largely silent about hate crimes carried out by white terrorists.

After the latest hate crime in Portland, Oregon — in which white supremacist Jeremy Christian killed Ricky Best and Taliesin Namkai-Meche on a train after they attempted to stop him from berating two Muslim women — three people have been killed by white terrorists in the last week. The other hate crime-related murder happened at the University of Maryland, when 23-year-old Richard Collins III was stabbed to death by Sean Urbanski. Collins was just commissioned as a lieutenant in the United States Army.

Conversely, no refugees hailing from any of the countries included in Trump’s Muslim ban have ever killed any Americans. The last time any refugees killed any Americans was more than 40 years ago, when three Cuban refugees killed three Americans (Cuba is not included in the travel ban). Ever since the Refugee Act of 1980, no refugees who have fled war-torn areas to seek asylum in the U.S. have ever killed any Americans. The Atlantic examined crime statistics and found that refugees constitute far less of a risk to Americans than fellow U.S. citizens:

[quote] Over the last four decades, 20 out of 3.25 million refugees welcomed to the United States have been convicted of attempting or committing terrorism on U.S. soil, and only three Americans have been killed in attacks committed by refugees—all by Cuban refugees in the 1970s.

[quote]Zero Americans have been killed by Syrian refugees in a terrorist attack in the United States.

This includes refugees from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen, which are the countries Trump has singled out for his Muslim travel ban. Politifact gave a “mostly true” score to a claim made by Rep. Ted Lieu (D-California), in which he said the chances of being killed by a refugee were 1 in 3.6 billion. The chances of winning the Powerball lottery’s grand prize are 1 in 292.2 million, meaning you would win the Powerball an average of 12 times before being killed by a refugee.

...

We live in the age of rich bullies. In November, Donald Trump showed that a proven record of stiffing your own employees and being caught on tape boasting about grabbing women “by the pussy,” was no bar to being elected president of the United States. “When you’re a star,” Trump told Billy Bush, “you can do anything.”

Greg Gianforte is nobody’s idea of a star. A software tycoon who made his first million at the age of 33, he retired to Montana and founded a second company, RightNow, that lets businesses outsource their customer-service operations, Gianforte ran for governor in 2016 against Democrat Steve Bullock and lost by a little over 18,000 votes. On Wednesday, the day before the polls closed in the special election to replace Representative Ryan Zinke, Gianforte assaulted a reporter who was trying to ask him his position on the Republican health-care plan. On Thursday Gianforte beat Democratic challenger Rob Quist by nearly 26,000 votes.

Gianforte’s ability to write his own campaign checks helped persuade Republicans to give him another chance, but in the end the winner’s ample wallet was less of a factor than the $ 2 million he received from the Congressional Leadership Fund, the $1 million he got from the National Republican Congressional Committee—or the hundreds of thousands the National Rifle Association spent on attack ads.

Quist, a folk singer whose own financial troubles became an issue in the campaign, got just $600,000 from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee—though, thanks to a big push by Daily Kos, Move On, Our Revolution, and Planned Parenthood, Quist actually raised more money than Gianforte in the campaign’s final month.

This was a dirty, hard-fought, expensive race between two unconventional candidates. Quist attacked Gianforte, who has lived in Montana for more than 20 years, as a “millionaire from New Jersey” who wanted to sell off the state’s public lands to developers. Gianforte called Quist “Nancy Pelosi in a cowboy hat.” But his surrogates, and the right-wing blogosphere, used Quist’s medical records to depict the Democrat as a degenerate with a history of “genital herpes” and a troubled marriage. Gianforte’s body slam of Guardian reporter Ben Jacobs was just the last low blow. And since Montana’s early voting meant that a majority of voters had already returned their ballots, the incident probably had limited impact on the final result.

But it’s also true that Quist, a commanding figure on stage so long as he has a banjo or a guitar, never became either an impressive debater or a fluent stump speaker. His tendency to revert to clichés about “standing up for Montana” was remarked on even by friendly reporters, with Jacobs noting that Quist was “clearly uncomfortable discussing policy outside of broad outlines.” Though Our Revolution endorsed him, and Sanders spent the weekend before the vote campaigning for him across Montana, Rob Quist is no Bernie Sanders.

Democrats nationally can take some comfort from the fact that in a state Trump carried by more than 20 percent, Quist came within seven points of a stunning upset. A swing of that magnitude in 2018 would easily return the House of Representatives to Democratic control. So the Republicans have good reason to be worried—especially since in the final days of his campaign Quist’s focus on health care seemed to pay off. But the “resistance” to Trump still needs to get a national win on the board. Christine Pellegrino’s surprise victory for the nomination in New York’s 9th Assembly District in Long Island has shown that with the right candidate and a great deal of patient grassroots organizing progressives can win down-ballot. Despite my initial skepticism, Jon Ossoff is now running ahead in the polls for Georgia’s 6th congressional district, which votes on June 20. Though a victory for Ossoff, who has run a cautiously centrist campaign, would hardly be a vindication for progressives, it would certainly represent a repudiation of Trump that should worry Republicans.

I got lost in a Youtube black hole this afternoon listening to A-ha and looking at old photos of dreamy Morten Harket. Apart from the huge success of "Take on Me," and a couple other decent-charting singles, none of their stuff got played on the radio here. They sang in English, they had the looks, they wrote great songs. Why didn't they have the same staying power over here as INXS, Duran Duran, or Depeche Mode?

Two drug-crazed, stark naked brothers were arrested on a laundry list of charges after they punched a woman in the face when she opposed to their passionate make out session outside an apartment complex in Indianapolis on Sunday, officials said.

Timothy Batz and his older brother, Noah, were completely nude when an assistant manager at the Lighthouse Landings apartments spotted them "passionately making out" near a dumpster, according to WISH-TV.

The manager alerted police and urged residents to avoid the incestuous siblings. But an unassuming woman nonetheless came too close to the strange scene, and subsequently took several punches to the face, resulting in a large knot on her forehead, cops said.

The woman fled to her car, at which point one of the brothers began banging on her windows while hurling death threats.

The Batz brothers continued the bizarre stunt by getting in and out of unlocked cars in the parking lot without consulting owners.

Police eventually arrived and cuffed the unhinged brothers, who told arresting officers that they were high on psychedelic mushrooms and marijuana.

Timothy Batz, 21, was jailed on a slew of charges, including battery, disorderly conduct, resisting law enforcement, public indecency, obscene performance, incest, attempted car theft and intimidation.

His 24-year-old brother was charged with public intoxication, incest, obscene performance, disorderly conduct, possession of marijuana, resisting law enforcement and attempted auto theft.

Oh, here's the previous thread:

Belgium is an unworkable, drab, nothing country with a compromised past. The muslims practically own it now, so lets give it them wholesale as a caliphate. Is this not a good idea? The Belgium french could move to France; the Belgium dutch to Holland, and all the EU muslims could relocate to Belgium. This would solve the problem of the cultural war that's splitting Europe. Example: a couple of days ago some policeman tried to make arrests in one of the 'no go' muslim areas of Denmark and were pelted by rocks by 150 youths. This weekend the entire district has the police out. To see the lovely blond bewildered faces of the danish police, who twenty years ago would have had nothing more to deal with than a lost pram, now having to deal with 11 year olds who spit in their faces and other such fuckery, is heartbreaking. The Danes have devoted more resources to immigrants, and made more efforts than any other EU country, and integration has still failed, which shows it will never work anywhere in Europe, which is a land of tribes. Relocated to Belgium the muslims could get on with making their own lives a misery without hindrance. Or would some other country be better? Greece? Albania? Romania? Do you have a better idea?

Anyone who thinks this shady con artist didn't mastermind stupid Apollo's cons is crazy.

The 42-year-old star has been accused of ripping down a retaining wall between his Hollywood Hills, California, home and the property next door and his neighbor is not pleased, TMZ reports.

The website reports the neighbor's lawsuit claims that the prior owner of actor's property 'had a right to extend his property to the neighbor's land, but only if he maintained a retaining wall and walkway'.

But last year the star allegedly knocked down the retaining wall and built a very large decking area which extended over the neighboring property.

With the deck in place and the retaining wall gone, the neighbor claims that their easement is now non-existent, TMZ said.

The neighbor reportedly asked the actor to tear down his outdoor entertainment space but he refused.

The How I met Your Mother star's publicist did not respond to TMZ's inquiries about the lawsuit.

In the Hollywood Hills access can be a contentious issue, with the slope often requiring homes to share access and driveways.

BRUSSELS (AP) — President Donald Trump's push to get in front of the pack at a NATO summit generated indignation in the Balkans and garnered attention on social media — but the man he shoved aside took it in stride.

At Thursday's gathering in Brussels, Trump put his right hand on the right arm of Montenegro Prime Minister Dusko Markovic and pushed himself ahead as NATO leaders walked inside the alliance's new headquarters and prepared for a group photo.

Trump then stood near Markovic and spoke to Lithuanian President Dalia Grybauskaite.

Video of the incident spread on social networks in multiple languages.

"It seems Donald Trump did not want that anyone overshadows his presence at the summit," said the Montenegro newspaper Vijesti.

Other Balkan websites ran headlines such as "America First" and "Where do you think you are going?"

Markovic himself, however, shrugged off the slight.

"It didn't really register. I just saw reactions about it on social networks. It is simply a harmless situation," he told reporters after the summit.

Instead of being insulted, he took the opportunity to thank Trump for supporting Montenegro's membership in NATO. The small former Yugoslav republic is slated to become NATO's 29th member next month.

And in any case, Markovic said, "it is natural that the president of the United States is in the front row."

Andrew Scheer is the new leader of the federal Conservative Party, in a stunning defeat of frontrunner Maxime Bernier on the 13th and final ballot.

Me and my penis: 100 men reveal all

From the sex addict to the vicar, men open up about their manhood - every penis tells a story

Saturday 27 May 2017 17.32 BST

PARIS - Visiting Henry Cavill on the M:I 6 set in Paris, the critically endagered specimens of Durrell Wildlife Park agreed to attend a complementary auditiong session out of politeness to the film's producer and star, Tom Cruise. (Vouchers for auditing sessions were included in Cruise's welcome basket to Cavill, along with a bottle of Beaujolais, chocolates from Galeries Lafayette, and a pair of Under Armour bicycle shorts).

"We showed up at the appointed time to the special trailer next to craft services," recalled the Berber Mandrill. "The church volunteers couldn't have been more hospitable while we waited for our auditing session; providing us with massages, picking the bugs out of our fur, and serving us champagne and this kind of mousse with a chalky undertaste.

"I was led into the auditing room and hooked up to an E-meter. My auditor asked me to describe a challenge I had faced, and I recalled the time I had to have sex with my sister to replenish the species. Then they asked me to name something that made me feel dishonest. I admitted that even though I had publicly told Henry that I enjoyed Batman Versus Superman, in private, I had created multiple accounts on IMDB to upvote every negative review of the film. Then I was asked to name the last time I had seen Henry cry. I was like, 'Bitch, you saw the Justice League trailer, when do you think?'

"Then they began asking questions about Henry's love life. I began to feel uncomfortable, so I asked to end the session. They told me that my E-meter scores were through the roof and with just a little more auditing, they could advance me to OT-III status immediately. I told them I didn't know what that means, and they told me with OT-III status they would be able to get rid of my thetans right away. I told them I didn't want to get rid of the thetan, the thetan was a very good friend of mine.

"They were confused by this and asked what I meant. I explained to them that Durrell is home to the Durrell Teegeeacknean Thetan. He is five billion years old and the very last of his species. They asked what he looks like and I explained that he has the body of a salamander and the head of a late-life Peter Ustinov. Next thing I know they kicked us out and the following morning Henry's trailer was moved ten blocks from the set."

Reached from his compound at Durrell Park in Jersey, the Teegeeacknean Thetan expressed disappointment over the continued villainization of his species by the Church of Scientology. [italic]"All of them bitches,"[/italic] he said, in a floating mist of ink that he released from his anus which spelled out his thoughts.

Trailer!

So most experts think Trump's budget will create a recession. The question will be how bad it will be. Plus what will something like Brexit do to our national economy...

I've right-clicked and done Adblock on them, but then the threads disappear and all I get is a blank screen. Can anyone help?

Consumer Reports recently ranked the burgers and I had the opportunity to try the top two.

In and Out which has been highly touted on this website was just not good, the meat was not flavorful or beefy tasting...it just seemed so lacking in every way.

Even worse was the dry hockey puck served by 5 brothers. I was able to watch them cook my burger and they used the dreaded burger smasher that they claim keeps the patty bun sized in in actuality robs the patty of juice, fat, and flavor. They also REFUSED to salt my patty before placing it on the grill. If you want your meat salted it must be after cooking. The fries were nice, but the burger was all around BAD.

If those are the top two I can't imagine how disgusting McDonalds must be to rate at the bottom.

Underwhelmed. BIG TIME.

I'm a new fan of Joan's, just getting into her music, and from what I'm learning, it's popular to hate her now because of some scandals involving her first band. In fact, on another old thread here, people were just saying that Joan Jett is known for being awful and a bit of a "predator" blah, blah. But, daggon' it, I love her, and she seems pretty nice for the most part.

Anyone else here in love with her too? Or, do any of you have any juicy insider stories to tell? Good or bad, I'd like to know them all. And since there seems to be a huge debate about what Joan's true sexuality is, any true stories about Joan hitting on people are, of course, welcome.

On a related note, Joan seems to always say that she's single. But, around 1999-2000, I noticed in video footage that she kept a band on her ring finger. Anyone know what that might have been about? Was she in a secret relationship or did she just like wearing the ring there? Whatever the case may be, she's a rocker, and true rockers are swingers, so I don't see that kind of monogamous commitment being Joan's thing (which may be why she doesn't wear a ring on that finger now).

Anyway, any cool stories about Joan to share? They can be good, bad, gossip, or whatever. Lets get this thread a rockin' and a rollin'!

Have you ever really lived in fear of another person?How do you get away from someone that has a dark side?

Those muscular bodies look really sexy with hair all over.

Is it buried somewhere among the less popular threads? I am shocked........

Why are ye torturing me, O desires of my heart? Torturing me and paining me by day and by night? Hunting me as a poor deer would be hunted on a hill, A poor long-wearied deer with the hound-pack after him There's no ease to my paining in the loneliness of the hills, But the cry of the hunters terrifically to be heard, The cry of my desires haunting me without respite,— O ravening hounds, long is your run! No satisfying can come to my desires while I live, For the satisfaction I desired yesterday is no satisfaction, And the hound-pack is the greedier of the satisfaction it has got,— And forever I shall not sleep till I sleep in the grave.

What do you think?

Found it on Netflix, it's about West Virginia coal and the coal companies' stranglehold there. Wasn't bad, but left a lot of unanswered questions. Miners (once unionized, now almost not) still rail against "treehuggers" as their water, air, and soil are polluted.

Shocking!

Another senior moment. Went food shopping yesterday but I was in a huge rush when I got home so I just put away the perishables and left the rest for later.

Only just realized I'd forgotten to put away the eggs. So they'd been unrefrigerated for about 24 hours. Just now stuck them in the fridge.

It hasn't been at all hot here, but is it still safe to cook and eat them?
