Lately Santos is accused of being involved in an ATM skimming operation. Yet, do all his lies, cheating and stealing compare to Trump and his Org?

Does seem like his problems aren't nearly over. Will Murdoch ultimately fire someone? Bartiromo? Carlson? For now, the fake news chickens have come home to roost.

He has a patreon and does a lot of live vlogs. Lives up in Seattle area. Very funny, clever nice guy.

A great movie that I love was ignored by Outfest. I assume their woke police did not want to risk triggering the audience. That was a shame. The woke changes to West Side Story were too many. I still like the film, but the new version went overboard. Might have been better just to fix the obvious problems.

This thread discussed further back the no-hijacking rule over at the other site and also discussed the recent thread being locked. I just looked at that thread. The OP wanted to discuss hiring straight escorts. Sadly, members chose to be triggered by it rather than focusing on what the OP wanted to discuss. One can see where that ended up. Generally there are enough scatterbrained members alone as well as those that have zero empathy (let's talk about everything I know and fuck all what you want) that the "no-hijacking" rule was a worthy guideline. I used to try steering back to the OP to help out. I guess I have at least an ounce of empathy. But I was one of the boycotters last year and like Sukrates did, I ultimately dropped off that Forum. I spend the time that I used to burn over there by listening to political blogs on YouTube such as Bryan Tyler Cohen; Ben Meisales on MidasTouch; and a lesser known but very clever guy from NYC David Feldman. If not for David Feldman I wouldn't know Ann Coulter's term for Nicky Haley, "BabyCakes". But back to the OP, I agree with NYNakedTop, that forum was fertile ground for members coming from conspiracy sites to spread QAnon (and Kremlin IMO) talking points. What good does it do to engage them? Little or none.

I was way off on a picture of several parked cars. I judged by the year of the model car. The picture was much later.

I got blocked from posting in the Politics room on CompanyofMen last Fall. I had pushed back on particular QAnon/Kremlin talking points and got blamed by others for making it too personal. Fine, I was burning up too much time there anyway. I keep in touch with individual members off site. I hope to see them in PS this April. I found other sites where I spend more time and enjoy more commeraderie.

I'm leaving this board. My last reminder about TJ, is his post where allowed to use the N word.

Fox gave him grief about taking leave. One might wonder whether Pete and family are missing their spacious home in South Bend. Apartment life in DC must be a huge change for his hubby and dogs.

I haven't read her book but, from your post, might we assume she'd work for Buttigieg if he runs in 2024? I hope he does.

R.H. Don't hold back about it. 🤭

Buttigieg was recently on 60 Minutes. He was awesome. Anderson Cooper interviewed. Buttigieg still comes across as capable and a clever man. I wonder how long he'll remain as Sec. Of Transportation and if he'll run in 2024.

Another film on YouTube #PrideCentral is Retake. Not something I'd watch again, but still was a good watch. The premise is a little far fetched, yet is an original idea. I gradually came to care about the two leads, especially the younger guy, Devon Graye.

Might have been better for Trump to walk out on Holder. https://twitter.com/alexjholder/status/1540034384014807043

C.R. played the Mr. Darcy role well.

Netflix has a new documentary, The Martha Mitchell Effect. It's an easy watch and pretty straightforward and also prophetic. She would shake her head at today's politicians.

I liked Bowen Yang in this. He was pretty good.

I can imagine those times and the effect he had on women, and some men as well. I recently saw an Elvis documentary on PBS about a benefit concert he did in Hawaii for the USS Arizona Memorial. Very well done film. Gives an idea of the man and his fans. If you are a PBS member, perhaps you can view the film. I'm glad I got this taste of Elvis. That said, I am excited about Austin Butler and Tom Hanks cast together. I hope I am not disappointed by the new Elvis film.

I just watched Edge of Seventeen. Streaming on Netflix. One of those films I was never inclined to watch, but finally gave it a try. Better than I thought it would be. I liked the lead character. His experience is similar to what many of us remember, dipping our toe into the gay pool. Holds up pretty good for 20+ years old gay film.

Another good Indian film (mostly in English) is LOEV. It left Netflix, but worth looking for.

You seem to be enthralled by Kremlin disinformation.

YouTube Pride Central channel has several gay films. I watched Heartstone, from Iceland. Nordic language with English subtitles. Pretty good film. Teens grappling with sexuality and so forth. Quite poignant if you like that sort of film.

How many Americans remember the GOP dropped their objection to Russia invading Crimea when Trump won the nomination? Probably most. How many Americans forgot how Trump held up sending arms to Ukraine? Sadly, probably most.

Putin,Tucker Carlson,and Tasso Jr. all say it is so.

Perhaps a reality TV show could somehow be crafted around Jussie and other celebs with careers that ran into the ditch. In the near term, he might try Celebrity Big Brother. He might ultimately repent and go on a book tour. I'd have no interest in any of that. But one can never underestimate the public's taste.
