  1. Are you religious? Floods and plagues and shit bring back thoughts of Moses.
  2. Sorry, I don't use TikTok so I don't know.
  3. This is a very interesting read. During the pandemic, I have found better stuff on the fan sites that I do with the studios. https://ilikepinga.com/2020/09/26/adios-gay-porn-studios/
  4. The Trump Justice Department secretly obtained Washington Post journalists’ phone records and tried to obtain their email records over reporting they did in the early months of the Trump administration on Russia’s role in the 2016 election, according to government letters and officials. In three separate letters dated May 3 and addressed to Post reporters Ellen Nakashima and Greg Miller, and former Post reporter Adam Entous, the Justice Department wrote they were “hereby notified that pursuant to legal process the United States Department of Justice received toll records associated with the following telephone numbers for the period from April 15, 2017 to July 31, 2017.” The letters listed work, home or cellphone numbers covering that three-and-a-half-month period. Cameron Barr, The Post’s acting executive editor, said: “We are deeply troubled by this use of government power to seek access to the communications of journalists. The Department of Justice should immediately make clear its reasons for this intrusion into the activities of reporters doing their jobs, an activity protected under the First Amendment.” News organizations and First Amendment advocates have long decried the government practice of seizing journalists’ records in an effort to identify the sources of leaks, saying it unjustly chills critical newsgathering. The last such high-profile seizure of reporters’ communications records came several years ago as part of an investigation into the source of stories by a reporter who worked at BuzzFeed, Politico and the New York Times. The stories at issue there also centered around 2017 reporting on the investigation into Russian election interference. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/trump-justice-dept-seized-post-reporters-phone-records/2021/05/07/933cdfc6-af5b-11eb-b476-c3b287e52a01_story.html This is abhorrent. It is not surprising at all to me. But, it does show how far these clowns went. I also think this cause yet another investigation and more charges for someone in the Trump administration.
  5. Controversial televangelist Ernest Angley has died at age 99, according to an announcement Friday on the Ernest Angley Ministries website. "Pastor, evangelist and author Rev. Ernest Angley has gone to Heaven to be with his Lord and Master at 99," the announcement reads. "He touched multitudes of souls worldwide with the pure Word of God confirmed with signs, wonders, miracles and healings. He truly pleased God in all things." A native of Gastonia, North Carolina, Angley moved to Akron in 1954 and eventually turned into an internationally known figure, thanks largely to the syndicated TV broadcasts he launched in 1972. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2021/05/07/ernest-angley-controversial-televangelist-dies-age-99/4998601001/ I grew up watching him with my family. The news of him being a closeted homosexual were years in the making.
  6. I honestly don't know much about him but I have seen this movies. It did not cross my mind that he was gay until after I saw them years ago. It is quite sad how closeted people had to be back then (and some still feel the same today) in order to work in Hollywood. On reading this, I do wonder which star changed the perception that it was OK to be gay and they got work? I know some have come out and it negatively affected their careers. I am curious how many regret it and how many wish they could live their truth.
  7. "Thanee said that once the locally made AstraZeneca’s vaccines started to roll out in June, the vaccination programme will start to cover foreigners" Again, sorry, but no date. They will begin...they plan to...the intention is... But, in the end, never anything specific!
  8. What great memories you bring back for me. Thank you. I loved Hockney. I especially like this one. Cabaret is one of my all time favorites. "Christopher revelled in Berlin's thriving gay scene. He was later to say he had had sex with at least 400 boys." So few guys? I thought you mean really revelled? 400 is such a low number. But, I guess back then, it may have been a lot. Damn, my NYC days really made me jaded.
  9. Great information and an excellent read. Admittedly, I didn't know much about him until I read your article. Thank you for sharing.
  10. Richard Barrow's transcript: We would like to confirm that Thailand's vaccination strategy is based on insuring accessibility to all those who require it regardless of their nationality. Comments on this regard have been taken out of context in the media. We know that. So we would like to reiterate that, Thailand continues to include foreign residents in it's vaccination program and foreign residents have been inoculated in the first phase already. But due to the limited number of vaccines we had procured in the beginning of our vaccine rollout we had to prioritize in order to prevent death and protect those who are most vulnerable to contracting the COVID-19, to protect our health systems as well. And therefore vaccinations in the first phase prioritized medical personnel, front line workers, the elderly and those with serious underlying diseases as well as those living within the high-risk zones such as border areas. The first phase has already commenced and it started at the end of February and it is still ongoing until the end of May. Foreign residents in this particular risk group have already been inoculated such as migrant workers and migrant health volunteers. Now that Thailand has been successful in procuring more vaccines in the second phase of inoculation, which is going to start in June and will run until the end of this year, we have expanded within this phase vaccine coverage to include the general public and people working for the public sector including the diplomatic community and international organizations as well as foreign residents in Thailand based on their membership in the risk groups. Now, lots of questions about the Mor Prom mobile application system. We know that the Mor Prom system currently does not accommodate registration for foreign residents for vaccination but the registration will commence in June and therefore the Ministry of Public Health is now working on the best method including through a possible mobile application or contacting hospitals directly to facilitate registration for foreign residents as soon as possible. We're constantly working on improving all platforms and means for registration to ensure ease of access and function. So please do continue to give us responses and comments about how these platforms work or do not work. We will all take this on board. And efforts are also being made to avail of private sector vaccines using vaccines purchased by the public sector. And this is because vaccine producers usually will not sell vaccines directly to the private sector but rather only through governments. And therefore public entities such as the Governments Pharmaceutical Organisation or the GPO can act on behalf of the private sector as among one of the options. So if this is successful, vaccines will also be made available for purchase during the second phase. More information for this option will be shared as soon as possible and as the private sector secures the vaccination procurement and we will help distribute this information as soon as possible too. And therefore we ask for your patience and understanding and appreciate your comments as well as questions which we have taken on board. This will help us improve the work to ensure that all the people currently living in Thailand are safe from COVID-19. ————— https://www.facebook.com/richardbarrowthailand/posts/326752898810980
  11. https://www.khaosodenglish.com/news/crimecourtscalamity/2021/05/06/officials-say-foreigners-in-thailand-will-get-vaccine-jabs-someday/ Notice no dates are ever given for lowly expats.
  12. I listened to the live broadcast and heard this with my own ears. And, I know no one speaking from a government podium would ever lie to me. Article: Expats are included in Thailand’s vaccination plan, a spokesperson from the Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration said today, clarifying recent reports that said Thais have priority in the first phase of inoculations. The spokesperson says comments were taken out of context and, in fact, foreigners have already been included in the first phase of vaccinations. We’d like to confirm that Thailand’s vaccination strategy is based on ensuring accessibility to all those who require it, regardless of their nationality. We’d like to reiterate that Thailand continues to include foreign residents in its vaccination program and some foreign residents have been inoculated in the first phase already. A Ministry for Public Health spokesperson had recently told the Bangkok Post that doses are currently reserved for Thais who are at high risk of infection or who are living in an area where there is a severe outbreak. He said foreigners need to wait until there is a clear vaccine policy announced by the government, according to the recent report in the Bangkok Post. The CCSA spokesperson says comments made on the vaccinations for foreigners were “taken out of context in the media.” https://thethaiger.com/news/national/expats-are-included-in-thailands-vaccination-plan-phuket-to-start-registration https://fb.watch/5jihvzZMcF/
  13. I have had several people ask me where the information is from the old Male Escort Review site. They are all on this site. They are not visible to the public. You need to be a logged in member with at least 10 posts and they will magically appear. All were preserved and that forum can be added to by anyone at anytime.
  14. The minister announced yesterday that there are no plans for expats to get jabs. Interesting that the day before this, I got a message from a friend who works at Parliament who said private hospitals could jab anything they want every soon. But, is this article a contradiction? https://www.bangkokpost.com/thailand/general/2110211/thais-not-expats-get-jab-priority?
  15. I have seriously been considering going to the USA to get the vaccine next month. But, this article is giving me something to really think about. https://www.postguam.com/news/local/worth-it-american-expat-in-thailand-travels-to-guam-for-vaccine-vacation/article_ac7f7318-abd2-11eb-937e-5fd49dc227e8.html
  16. I always brought different guests every day. The JW in Rio was the only issue and it was when I was bringing in a group of 3 or more. I had forgotten that. They don't like group sex I think.
  17. I was testing you Lady Persephone.
  18. This was very surprising news to me today! I kinda thought they would be together forever.
  19. I stayed in the Intercontinental Hotel in both Rio and Sao Paulo (Rio now another brand) as well as the JW Marriott in Rio and the Renaissance in Sao Paulo and never any issues at all.
  20. Now, but his days in 24 were amazing. My Thai BF use to hear the music and say: Jack saves the world? to which I would say, YES.
  21. @Lucky I am not sure. But, @floridarob had a friend stay there recently.
  22. Villa Market seems to keep the bread machine mix. I bought about 20 of them and glad I did.
  23. Missing is Thailand. But, tons of friends have retired to both Costa Rica and Mexico and loved it. Here is the full list with a lot of Central and South American countries. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/01/06/best-budget-friendly-places-to-retire-in-2021-report.html
  24. During Covid, I found the use of a bread machine wonderful. Every week I cook one or two loafs of fresh bread. I still love the Beer Cheese bread. But, I've also tried many other things. I found this great site for some flour and kitchen supplies. https://www.schmidt.co.th/en//
