Today's Los Angeles Times expressed some surprise at the inability of the Stahls to sell this house at $20 million. Yet it's tiny, has 2 parking spaces, and no street parking to speak of. It also has rather precarious architecture. IMHO, probably worth a tenth of this price... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stahl_House https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/1635-Woods-Dr-Los-Angeles-CA-90069/65242987_zpid/ "...The house has been unoccupied since 2007, but available for public tours. On November 21, 2025, it was listed for sale at $25,000,000, marking the first time in its history that it had been on the market. In a statement on the house's website, the Stahl family said "it h…

I delight in male beauty and have at least tens of thousands of men in various stages of disrobement. While there are probably a dozen or so whose pictures I often go back to if I'm not feeling too horny, I've never felt any one is so unique that I'd be willing to pay large sums of money for racy photos. I contributed some photos of Alex Espenshade, for example, to the photo gallery. Yes, he is probably the world's most handsome redhead. For your and my collection, I found some nudes of him on LPSG, and noticed from chatter on that website that he was charging $100 for 5 nudes, and $1000 for a short sensual video. Obviously there are those willing to pay that, and on LPSG…

Any interest in such a string?

I don't know what's happened to this forum in the last month or so It appears it's changed structure, it's hard to read Did it change the structure of it , I actually coming here less because it's too messy to look at trying to find topics etc have to now go to the activity button etc I liked it before these changes If something's not broken why change it

My husband and I were watching Saturday Night Live yesterday, and I wondered openly if Ben Marshall might be attractive if he had dark hair. Other than marked obesity, red hair is probably the biggest turn-off in a man for me. I played around with Photoshop to try to darken the hair to see what he'd look like with darker hair. It seemed to be a a marked improvement. What are your big turn-offs? Before: After:

I’m in Florida, USA, today and was out with friends for the evening. Returning home I tuned-in to cable network TCM – Turner Classic Movies. Philadelphia (1993) was the feature movie. I’ve always had an emotional response watching the movie. At some points, tears … always. Tonight was no different. There are those of us here, not all, who are old enough to have lived through the terror of HIV/AIDS crisis starting in the early-1980s. To say I was sexually active those years is an understatement. Somewhere in the range of 30 guys I’d slept with didn’t survive, as far as I know. I survived, and I’ve often wondered: why was I spared? A generation of gay life was w…

Although not a close friend, I was acquainted with Hunter Hardin/Lulu Lovebottom, and found out yesterday that he committed suicide after he apparently timed his announcement of giving up on life to pop up after it was too late, on Instagram. He was a talented burlesque dancer, and performed at one of my parties. I knew him mainly as the friend of some mutual friends. We would talk briefly at parties, but I never got to know him well. His post simply stated "Been hurt for the last time by someone I shared my heart with 💔". I could only wish to have a fraction of his talent, which I admired. Although we weren't close, I had nightmares about his death last night. How many o…

In past years, I've sent money to political campaigns, but I've been getting more political spam texts. I click on "Block and Report Spam" time and time again, but the spam keeps coming. Although I feel strongly about the coming election, I haven't given any money, as I'm afraid it will encourage even more spam. Even if I don't leave my phone number, the Democrats clearly know my phone number, and I'm afraid of receiving more spam than I'm already getting. How about you? Have any of you stopped political donations for fear of getting more spam? I've never once donated money in response to texts, so I'm at a bit of a loss to understand why campaigns feel it's smart to spam…

I saw a blurb on the local news about a former hospital in the area being turned into a temporary museum, called "The Hospital of Emotions." The rooms in the former hospital were turned into expressive works of art, and one tours the hospital to visit these repurposed rooms. I went into the website, and was shocked to find out they were charging $58 per person to visit this exhibit--PLUS $20 a car for parking! In other words, $138 for my hubbie and myself to visit. You buy a 10-minute entry window in advance. I'm scratching my head to think back if I've ever paid such a sum to visit a museum. I can't recall that I have. I looked up what it costs to get an all-access pass …

I was in a social setting, and one of the people in the conversation stated that a "gay voice" or non-masculine manner of speaking was a big turn-off for him. I told him that one of the most handsome men I can think of, Jason Caceres, is often accused of having a very gay voice, but that I didn't care one iota about his voice. When I showed him his photo, he admitted that he'd "pay him to drink his used bathwater." Were I not happily married, I'd be overwhelmed with happiness at being able to get physical with him just once, and would feel I'm the luckiest person on the planet if he were to be my husband. Of course, I'm close enough to the luckiest person on earth to have…

Has.anybody heard if this was the Aquarius in the raids in Istanbul and around the country. "Also targeted was a men’s hammam reputed to be a venue for prostitution."

Looks as though Dean Cain is going out of his way to show what an asshole he is... https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c5yp8l3z0g5o "Ex-Superman actor Dean Cain has announced he is planning to join the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, known as ICE. In an interview on Wednesday, Cain, who is already a sworn law enforcement officer, said, "I will be sworn in as an ICE agent asap". It comes after he released a video encouraging members of the public to join following a recruitment drive by the agency, which is behind the Trump administration's ramped-up immigrant deportation efforts. Cain played the role of Superman between 1993 and 1997 in the TV serie…

I think I was able to change the way it looked. At least for me. Did it revert for others?

All in the name of "family values". Police in Turkey have detained 47 people in a series of raids on gay bars and the homes of LGBTQ+ activists, officials say. Raids took place in 12 provinces over the weekend as part of a campaign dubbed "My Family is Safe" that the Turkish government says has been designed to protect family values. BBC Report

Lady Gaga just had her first baby. I have it on good information that the pregnancy was a surrogate one. I looked it up on the internet, and apparently it's not common knowledge. I can't figure out the reason for the secrecy on this matter...

Once again, today the site is not behaving,.... connection problems, endless buffering, and the "contact us" tab DOES NOT function...... After the last issues the other day, it worked FINE for awhile, but now again, its almost impossible to use the site. Any help would be appreciated. (I hope it isnt IRANIAN sabotage and retribution for Trump ?) 🤣

One of the great things about this board is occasionally getting to meet one of its members, esteemed or otherwise, on their own turf. 😎 While we were in the Denver area, my boyfriend, another friend who lives there, and I met up with @jimmie50 at a Mexican-themed restaurant, because apparently I don’t get enough of Mexico while actually living in Mexico. 😂 My impression of Jimmie50 was exactly what I expected. He seems like a truly nice, genuine guy, and I have no doubt he’ll handle his time in Cambodia just fine, as long as he stays of prop planes and I'm really happy for him. We hung out for a couple of hours, and the time flew by. It felt less like meeting someone fro…

Hi everyone, I am writing to share some sad news. Our fellow member, Lucky, unexpectedly passed away on July 7, 2026, following a brief illness. On a personal note, Lucky and I were in touch for over two decades. When I hadn't heard from him or seen him post anything lately, I emailed him. When there was no reply, I expected the worst. His sister must have gotten access to his email account because she eventually replied and notified me of his passing. Believe it or not, despite everything he accomplished in his career, he always looked up to me. Keeping in contact with him for 20 years was a true privilege, and I am going to miss our whore stories exchanges. Many of you …

Unless I start a new topic, I don't see a place to attach a file/photo from my files. In the past, there was a prompt to "choose files...".

Duh. Silly title. Of course they wouldn't know it if they had dementia especially among certain nationalities that generally lack self-awareness. I recall reading somewhere that dementia is quite prevalent among older foreign residents in Thailand due to loneliness. They aren't alone because they have people around them but they're (emotionally) lonely. I don't know whether this finding was anecdotal or based on scientific research but going around places like Chiang Mai and Pattaya where there are a lot of older farang one gets the vibe that quite a few of them aren't "all there" (which may not necessarily be clinical dementia but some form of personality disorder or soc…
