Any interest in such a string?

The question is what kind of friend. I think many westerners think friendship is by definition two equals. My experience is that in many other parts of the world this isn't true. These relationships come with expectations that the richer/older/wiser is the patron/mentor. Note the richer part. That doesn't mean the relationship is purely mercenary (though it could be), but it does often mean that the richer one is supposed to 'help' the younger one.
So, I think it isn't always either/or. Sometimes its both.
Proceed with whatever caution you deem warranted and assess it in the light that both want something from the relationship and it may not be the same thing even if both are fond of each other.

I has been some time since a post aroused me, as you just did.
 

I am finding pleasure not only in the new stuff I am discovering, but also in revisiting classics. Do you remember when HBO was still Home Box Office?
 

How about DEVS on Hulu? I don't get Hulu, but a friend really recommends this show.
 

This movie, appropriately titled Gay Sex in the '70s,  made me want to go back in time:

Not exactly childhood, but in 11th grade my English teacher said, ‘I know who you would like,’ and handed me a collection of short stories by Flannery O’Connor.

Life perception was never quite the same since.

Why in God’s name would one do this anywhere near a live computer?

A very special more than friend gave me the book when it came out.  It's beautiful, I love it.  Years later I still take it out and look at it.

I fear I'll get in some kind of trouble over there for even chiming in here, but I can absolutely commiserate with the original post of this thread as a general complaint against Daddy's MC.  It's been a long time since I participated with any real regularity to the Message Center on Daddy's.  A few weeks ago I was enjoying sharing music videos in a few discussion threads with titles like, "post a song that makes you emotional", "post a song that makes you horny".
One night I get a pissy message about me violating TOS regarding child pornography and I was now on thin ice.  What the fuck?  Turns out that when I had posted a link to the video for the MGMT song Kids, the first frame of that video is, understandably, a kid. 
Everyone thinks they are special, and of course I do too.  I responded mostly politely, but what I wanted to say was, "Look.  given that I've been on this site since Hooboy created it in 1999, given that I am the longest consistently advertising and working escort currently still working and advertising, given that it's not my fault that the first frame of the video was a still of a clothed Kid (the song is called Kids, after all), maybe instead of coming at me with a threat of potential expulsion and pointing to the TOS section on Child Porn, you could have instead written me: 
"Hey, Rod.  We need to be careful (see linked TOS) about the content on our site given that our servers [inexplicably] aren't stored overseas.  You may not have noticed, but the picture that the link to the music video you posted in "this" thread  had a photo of a kid, so we had to delete it.  This may seem like overkill, but we have to be overly cautious.  Please be careful in the future, and if you want to post a link to the song again, please find a video without that first freeze frame of a Kid.  THANKS!" "
Asshole.  So, of course, now I'm pouting, and hardly posting, and no longer sharing music. That's my recent story.  Course it had nothing to do with participants and administrators being racist, just annoying and overbearing.
