  • i’m lucky enough to live nearby a gay beach (for now at least) and it has a cafe/bar on it and all of the male patrons are topless with swim gear on. a non-op trans man wanted to join in last summer and the manager told him that he need to wear a shirt because “boobs are nudity” or leave and; being an extra large cis gay bear myself; i pointed out that my boobs were bigger (and hairier), but they didn’t require me to wear a shirt.

    it made other patrons join in and the manager relented and i made a new friend that day. i’m WISH i could stay in this wonderful city; but my autistic ass has scared away all potential employers and i need to earn a living.





  • in 2002 when my windows me computer start looping on the blue screen of death, with all of my college papers/essays/tests/assignments trapped in it.

    the recovery media refused to work because i had upgraded the computer several times and i couldn’t afford the $180 windows xp cd. so i bought a linux magazine for $5 that included a copy of mandrake linux installation media and used paper printouts from my college’s computer labs to help me rescue my work from the computer.

    my favorite used to be a sauce named “amor” that was primarily centered around southern california and baja california.

    it was a little bit like cholula, but w MUCH stronger vinegar punch to it and it makes my mouth water every time i think about it on top of chips or other snacks; sort of like frank’s hot sauce if it were more sour and more picante at the same time.

    the brand still exists, but their recipe changed significantly about 20-ish years ago and i’ve been unable to find anything like it to call my favorite.


  • i see jane austen’s and other similar works as 17th/18th century equivalents of the kardashians; where people idolize the rich and mimic them as much as possible.

    it’s also the reason why i have the most difficulty accepting that a leftist future is possible when we’re so proned to worship this type of lifestyle while simultaneously deride the people who don’t measure up to it.








  • it reached an absurd level in austin texas well before trump became a thing; they show up to gay bars to entrap men into breaking the law with the intention of citing enough legal violations to justify shutting down the bar permanently. it’s so bad that the bars have responded by hiring off duty police because they have a chance of recognizing officers in plainclothes.
