RockHardNYC got a reaction from JourneysEnd in Is this a joke? $1.000 euros per hour? $1,158.00Not all computers behave equally. Not all OSs behave equally. I have Mac and PC at the office. At home, it's all Mac. I did not check Planet Romeo on the PC until today. There is no warning pop-up window when using my PC.

RockHardNYC got a reaction from xpaulo in Good Luck to You, Leo GrandeDon't be put off by the awful title of this film. This is one of the best movies about sex workers to come in a long while.
Emma Thompson and Daryl McCormack are brilliant actors with oodles of chemistry. The script by Katy Brand is superb. Sophie Hyde's direction is what gets movies awarded. It's a simple movie that's deep and complex. There is something here for every adult to chomp on, especially those among us who struggle to find sexual happiness and fulfillment.
Sadly, it's only available on Hulu at the moment. If and when you get a chance to see it, run. It's fabulous. And, yes, Daryl McCormack is quite delicious naked.

RockHardNYC got a reaction from splinter1949 in Humiliation on a new levelI absolutely hate to say it, but we're in a post-Trump/maga world now. More and more people are saying things out loud that have long been considered nasty and/or inappropriate. Sadly, it's impossible to put that cat back into the bag. She's out and proud, and more ignorant and arrogant than ever. What was once a quiet curiosity is now an in-your-face prejudice, intended to provoke a reaction, usually negative. I call it a social power-play, for desperately unhappy, unsatisfied people. We have no choice now but to always be on-guard, especially when you travel. The crazy airline stories we hear about now are completely out of control.
This thread reminds me of an episode I had with a longtime neighbor. We are not close friends, but for decades, I've been friendly with her. She's a smart, cool, hippy-ish, native New Yorker, a bit older than me. One summer, our building doorman was on vacation, and management hired a young, gay, Latino twink type to stand in. He absolutely looked like he might have been eighteen years old, fresh out of high school. He was adorable. I'll call him Louis.
Louis had terrific gaydar, and expertly charmed his way into my focus. He was an extremely good doorman, which will always catch my attention, but he was also very funny and flirtatious with me. I love funny, flirtatious men, gay or straight, so an instant bond had been created. One evening, Louis and I were talking in the lobby about his life, and my neighbor appeared from the elevator. She saw me and sat down next to me to chat. She had a few minutes to observe my interactions with Louis, who never ended his flirtatious flitting. At one quiet point she turned to me and whispered, "Is Louis your type?" I was aghast. It suddenly dawned on me, after knowing this woman for almost thirty years, we never had a conversation about my being gay. She knew almost nothing about that side of my life. I was horrified that she might think I was sexually turned on by young twinks, young enough to be my grandson.
I responded, "Absolutely not. However, I do love being in the presence of promising young people. I try to work with young people all the time, because I enjoy their company. Louis is a special charmer. I would hire him."
I'm not sure she was satisfied with that answer. She witnessed our unique "gay" chemistry, and I'm sure she imagined us in some daddy-fetish porn scene, and couldn't escape that image in her head.
Here I was being completely honest with her about a personal subject that was none of her business. And without mentioning anything sexual, I tried to convey that I'm not sexually attracted to very young men, and I hate the idea of having a type. I felt hopeless in the moment, because no matter how careful my words, I was going to sound defensive, which would make me sound as though I might be lying. The awkwardness of that moment stayed with me for a very long time. That is why I said earlier, you can NEVER totally control what others might think about you. The mind can be a crazy thing, and sometimes you will be challenged to think on your feet.

RockHardNYC got a reaction from omega in Removed from Delta Airlines flight for wearing revealing clothing...If I had a dollar for every clothing offense I encountered on a daily basis, I'd be swimming in Bezos money. I get that I live in NYC, where you see EVERYTHING. But the way some people leave their homes and step onto the street, especially young women, boggles my mind. My son loves bouncing, perky titties, but even he questions the value of dressing half-naked on a street with horny vultures at every corner. I'm surprised the rape numbers aren't higher.

RockHardNYC got a reaction from xpaulo in Humiliation on a new levelTackiness, rudeness, and arrogance runs deep in the gay community, especially in "gay bars." Oftentimes, it comes extremely LOUD. That might explain why I haven't been in a "gay bar" in years. In a place like NYC, where gays are everywhere, there are SO MANY elegant, comfortable places to have a drink. One doesn't have to subject himself to uneducated, unsophisticated, or worse, drunk gays.
When it comes to enjoying a great cocktail, I'm a total snob.

RockHardNYC got a reaction from Olddaddy in Humiliation on a new levelJust a note: I have my share of young people (college age) surrounding me when I work. Sometimes, we are in luxury hotels and airport hotels. Many of the male interns are straight (I don't always know for sure), and some are very handsome and young looking. Even my son is handsome and young looking, and we are often together, sharing the same room (he's straight, and most people don't think we are related). On occasion, I have noticed some people looking at me(us) with questioning eyes. My son has been carded, but nothing more. One time, in a hospital emergency room, a nurse asked me if my son was hurting me at home. I was a bit stunned by the question, and I responded, "Does that sweet, loving face look angry to you?," as I pointed his way. "Sorry, we have to ask." she answered.
For some reason, Sound of Freedom is a controversial film, probably something to do with Christian funding. The movie is based on Tim Ballard's story, who was a U.S. government agent, working on child sex trafficking cases. His secret trip to Columbia is covered in the film. It's not an easy film to watch, but I recommend it. It's difficult for me to believe that such extreme evil exists in our world, but it does. We need to be aware.

RockHardNYC got a reaction from Latbear4blk in Humiliation on a new levelTrafficking in minors is a hot issue right now, especially in Los Angeles. As far as I'm concerned, we should all be concerned about the issue, and do our part to crush the problem. I suggest you put your hurt pride on the table, and consider the greater good. Of course it's not fun to be profiled in any way, no matter what the situation is. Most of us have been there in one way or another. I find it best not to take these things too personally. There is NO WAY to control how other people see us. I am continually shocked, now that I am sixty, how strangers treat me. Just had an incident yesterday that I won't go into. I let the kid slide. His day is coming.

RockHardNYC got a reaction from Marc in Calif in The Original Guest List for Truman Capote's 1966 Black and White BallGiven all the hoopla over Ryan Murphy's new show, I thought readers might find the original guest list an interesting read. Shockingly, it was published in The New York Times at the time. You may need to drag the file to your desktop to see it in-full. Not sure how the UI will handle the file.
(Follow-up: It seems all you have to do is click on the image, and the enlarged version will appear.)

RockHardNYC got a reaction from Pete1111 in Dementia Joe confuses his wife and his sisterHad I gone to college with Tommy, and found my way to a friendship with him, I don't see how I would have been able to avoid falling in love with him. Even though I have little patience for fidgets, I feel the same about John Favreau.
LOL. I've been away, so I had to make up for lost time. Pleased to see you are still going strong.

RockHardNYC got a reaction from forky123 in RIP Hinton Battlehttps://playbill.com/article/three-time-tony-winner-hinton-battle-dies-at-67
Hinton Battle and I go way back. I was nearly a baby when I first met him during his Wiz years. We worked together on several projects through the years, and he was always generous with his introductions. I probably know more about him than I should. He was an intimate guest in my home on several occasions. I'm going to save most of what I know for my memoir. Details you won't find coming from Debbie Allen.
Hinton was multi-talented, but he led a complicated life. He was guarded and secretive, which made it difficult to get and stay close.
I hope and pray he has found peace.

RockHardNYC got a reaction from Latbear4blk in Trump insists to aides he's 'more popular' than Taylor Swift.I think it's quite fabulous that maga is going APE-SHIT over Taylor Swift. Utterly ape-shit. Their obnoxious behavior easily reveals their fear and insecurity about the upcoming election. Swift fans are FAR MORE DANGEROUS than Trump's limp-dicked maga-pussies, and her numbers truly are staggering FACT.
The biggest laugh for me is when Trump-cunt Jeanine Piro publicly told (begged) Taylor Swift to "stay out of politics!" As if Taylor Swift gives a rat's ass what Jeanine Piro thinks or says. These maga culitists are OUT OF THEIR MIND. Totally deluded.
Sadly, Grandpa Biden will need as much Gen Z help as he can muster, and Taylor Swift is the perfect advocate for supporting democracy. She doesn't need any more money, but I would happily pay her in exchange for her very vocal support. Politics is the last thing Gen Z thinks about, and in America, where "old" is a curse, Taylor could crack the whip, and teach these brain dead kids an important lesson on WISDOM and EXPERIENCE.

RockHardNYC reacted to Marc in Calif in Trump insists to aides he's 'more popular' than Taylor Swift.Fox Sports’ Colin Cowherd Torches ‘Sad and Lonely’ Men Complaining About Taylor Swift: ‘What Does That Say About Your Life?’
Ahmad Austin Jr. Jan 30, 2024
https://www.mediaite.com/sports/fox-sports-colin-cowherd-torches-sad-and-lonely-men-complaining-about-taylor-swift-what-does-that-say-about-your-life/
“There’s a lot of really weird, lonely, insecure men out there,” Cowherd said. “The fact that a pop star — the world’s biggest pop star — is dating a star tight end who had one of his greatest games ever, and the network puts them on the air briefly, then it bothers you, what does that say about your life?
Cowherd also accused critics of lying when they insist they “just want to watch football.”
“Did you know, statistically, in a three-and-a-half-hour NFL playoff broadcast — or regular season broadcast — just 18 minutes are actual football,” Cowherd said. “And we have the data. We have the numbers. You don’t turn away. There’s coaches cutaways; they show fans in Buffalo on fire, commercials, reviews… Eighteen minutes of real football. For the record, about the length of five Taylor Swift songs.”
He cited a report that revealed Swift’s average screen time is just 25 seconds throughout the entire broadcast. Then, Cowherd called out the double standard he believes exists when it comes to celebrity sightings at games.
“Matthew McConaughey — ‘Alright, alright, alright’ — love him!” Cowherd continued. “Drake, on everything; Spike Lee, Knicks games; Eminem, Michigan sporting events. We celebrate it. Eighties, ’90s, Jack Nicholson Lakers games? It’s cool. ‘Saw Jack!’ But a talented and beautiful woman is on the air — one who would never pay attention to lonely men — and it bothers them.
“There’s a stat out there — it’s kind of uncomfortable for you sad guys — that 50% of men never have real intimacy with a woman. That means the other 50% have multiple intimate relationships with women; and the ones that don’t are angry and sad and lonely, and they are often misogynistic and resent women who didn’t give them the time they think they deserve.”

RockHardNYC got a reaction from TotallyOz in Dementia Joe confuses his wife and his sisterFor decades, I have preached my intolerance for liars. Several assholes from the other site enjoyed calling me one for years to troll me. The problem with being a chronic liar, which maga and Trump are, you CAN NEVER BE TRUSTED. And, you prove to the world that you have NO SHAME.
Maga was hellbent on "locking up" Hillary, yet, even with endless hatred and determination, there wasn't a court in America able to charge her with any crimes. Now that America and the maga Party are faced with a true criminal, maga wants to deny the facts and make excuses, because Trump, the true criminal, is their guy. The hypocrisy is astounding, and normal voters are seeing the BULLSHIT for what it is.
If you make LIES and HYPOCRISY your game in politics, voters eventually wise up and reject you. The diehard cult members are lost forever.
The Republican Party as we knew it is finished, at least for now. Conservatism is a joke (except in the Supreme Court), because most have proven they are corrupt for power (especially in the Supreme Court). Donald Trump was NEVER a conservative, but they know he can get the most votes as a fake conservative, so they're willing to turn a blind eye, especially for the courts. Evangelicals are a laughing stock because they chose the devil as their leader. Rick Wilson said it best: "Everything Trump touches dies." The trail of dead bodies and seriously damaged souls is piling up. His remaining days are numbered.

RockHardNYC got a reaction from TotallyOz in Dementia Joe confuses his wife and his sisterNot only is it NOT WRONG, I would highly recommend it, until further notice.
These are NOT normal times, and nobody should pretend otherwise. Mainstream media is FAILING us. In normal times, I invited opposing, intelligent, respectful, political debate. For decades, I was a loyal contributor to PBS's The News Hour, a committed watcher of Jim Lehrer, Gwen Iffil, Mark Shields, and others. The News Hour was one of the few news sources on TV who offered opposing debate in a civil, respectable manner. Today, in a Trump/maga world, one has to be VERY CAREFUL when trying to find reliable news sources, otherwise known as the truth. Trump and his minions are SERIAL LIARS. They compile lie upon lie, continually feeding the Fascist cult movement that chooses to live in their ignorant and racist bubble. The RACISTS have complete support from the Fox (and others) eco chamber. It's never been more us-versus-them, with maga (and Putin) begging for another civil war.
I made the decision last year to end any and all association with Trump supporters, especially anything to do with money. That means, most of my Midwest family are now gone, properly excommunicated from my life. You can't talk or reason with cult members. Either they drink the poison that ultimately ends their lives, or they face a long and scary process of deprogramming.
Trump is facing 91 criminal indictments. There was a time when only one would kill a campaign for president. These are not normal times.
The magas in Congress DO NOT WANT a border deal, because they NEED the issue to run on, and they'd rather hurt more human lives because of perceived political "wins." How do you define evil?
In a court of law, to nine jurors who went through voir dire with the highly respected Judge Lewis Kaplan, Alina Habba actually argued that E. Jean Carroll got what she wanted from her association (the rape) with Donald Trump. She acquired fame. How evil does a U.S. lawyer need to be to make such an argument in a U.S. court of law? The jury voted that degree of evil is worth about 83 million.
Maga is a dangerous CANCER. If we are not careful, if we are not diligent, we risk losing EVERYTHING to Fascism, especially the rule of law.
Trump called Robbie Kaplan a CUNT in code during a deposition. For more on the future ACN case that Robbie Kaplan is pursuing against Trump, here is a fascinating interview with Robbie by former Republican Tim Miller:
For most legal discussion of Trump's cases, I now rely on Legal AF. Lawyers Ben Meiselas, Michael Popok, and Karen Friedman Agnifilo (former #2 to Cy Vance in the Manhattan District Attorney's Office) know how to explain complex legal matters to non-lawyers:
I'm a big John Favreau, Tommy Vietor, and Dan Pfeiffer fan, so I try never to miss a Pod Save America episode. Here is their most recent discussion with Liz Cheney:
America is worth saving. Let's put an end to the Trump cult. It's democracy or Fascism. I vote democracy: Joe Biden 2024! Tell maga to go fuck themselves.
