  1. The upgrades over there are looking good. It is not just modernizing the interface's appearance. Inserting Tweets now is super easy and looks great. They are also working in a new system of warnings and time outs that seems to be functioning well. I have been banned and also warned (just in testing mode), all with the proper communications and letting me know why. The home page looks significantly more attractive, I think.
  2. So I just noticed I am an Olympian. I am surprised immortality can be obtained so soon. Do we have a webpage somewhere that shows the scale with the different levels of membership? @TotallyOz?
  3. You forgot the shipping left, right, and up. It is a great feeling. I will keep the free version and wait to be in Salvador to use it.
  4. @Tartegogo somewhere explains very well why. I would love the app if it did not come with this scamming glitch.
  5. Yeah, this year has been tough with deaths. I met him last April in Palm Springs. Cool guy. An inspiration.
  6. Thank you for sharing that. It is always poverty. I wish American policy makers understood that it would be wise to invest less in trade and conventional wars and more in economic development South of Rio Grande (and everywhere else).
  7. And the other forums are back. In Beta testing mode, and with a strong warning from the owner, but they are back. I just posted to test it.
  8. Everyone knows 5000 bucks is a ridiculous amount. It is clearly his way to say he is not interested.
  9. Inspired by the sharing of our milk sister @Tartegogo, I downloaded Tinder to my phone. At the beginning, I loved it. The swiping left, right, and up, and the limitation to connect only when there is a match, just got me. Soon I was paying for the Plus version, mainly to be able to scout other locations. I did notice some glitches. The app would sometimes freeze, specially when I would tap in the notifications. But I still loved it. I was making a lot of connections in Salvador and in DC. The app let you know there is people who liked you, but in order to know who they are, you have to pay for the Gold version. I was hooked, so I did. I should have been billed about 50 bucks, to make the difference between the 100 of the Plus I had already paid, and the 150 of the Gold version. Instead, they billed me 150. I contacted the app developers because this was obviously a glitch (or perhaps a designed scam) in their product, but they send me to Apple store. Once I explained the situation, Apple immediately refunded my money. This story was actually longer and more frustrating that it sounds. God save Apple. Death to Tinder.
  10. LOL. Do not be mean.
  11. I am slightly concerned about my hotel. I called to upgrade my Travelocity reservation and book this room (301): They checked to verify my Travelocity reservation and found it, but then tried to persuade me not to make a reservation. The guy would advise me to ask for the room at my arrival. I insisted and I think he faked like he wrote down my request just to finish our conversation. Perhaps I should ask for the balcony room in the second floor. The 3rd is the top one and is probably going to be hot with that tropical sun. I hope the A/C works.
  12. Well, sometimes I do like his posts.
  13. Perhaps. It is possible. I was just pointing to the facts.
  14. Yes, indeed. I am a whore. I go where the traffic is. However, I have been working hard to make this website as valuable to me as the other one. My agenda here and there is out and open. I want as many websites as possible servicing us. I want them (us) all strong and healthy.
  15. I mostly agree with your post. Just let me point out to this fact: I have mentioned boytoy several times, link included, without suffering any consequences. I do not remember whether or not I capitalized it, so I may not be meeting your high expectations. However, I mentioned this forum (link included) in a complimenting way several times as an unchallenged resource for international escorts, I linked to the reports on my last trip to Argentina, I linked last week recommending everyone to join right now.
  16. I am sick, just decided to take the day off. Besides, I just smoked my pipe. This is to warn you that I am probably in a Love & Peace hippy mood right now. Sometimes it is about the momentum. Thinking of the socio-cultural-political context, of course we could be worse but we are already pretty low and perhaps it is time for a tide change. The political situation is horrible, I do not need to add anything about it, but we all are so focused on blaming Trump that we are missing the big picture. Beyond our routine mass shootings in the USA, we have now Americans killing other Americans because they are White, or Black, or (fill the ethnicity), or Christian, or Jewish, or Muslim, or (fill the religion), or gay, or trans, etc. It is not only in America, this reactionary hating trend started in Europe, all the shit starts in Europe. I am ignorant about the situation of the progressive field in Europe, but in he USA and in South America we have good reasons to be hopeful, despite our dark present of Trumps and Bolsonaros. I am feeling/wishing for a change in the tide, otherwise it would be like History going backwards. I do not think such a thing is possible. However, we (our tiny subculture) have a problem. A tide change does not guarantee anything to us. There is no shortage of liberals and progressive minded friends who are enemies of pornography, adult entertainment, and sex work. That is why I think it is of the upmost importance to be as united as possible, as visible and spoken up as possible. We should be trying to establish alliances with our mainstream brothers and sisters, with civil rights advocacy organizations, with the LGBQT lobby (they are not always our friends), with every open minded and sex positive social and political leaders. If we do not do that, the next wave could be worse instead of good news for us. That is why I am wishing that after diving in deep shit; McCain and Bush deaths are inspiring a reflection that adds to the hopeful Blue Wave of new women/minorities leaders. I am wishing that both Daddy;s and Boytoy communities are able to move on and work together when friendly competition must be put aside; that everyone associated with the adult entertainment, pornoraphy, and sex work industries is able to come together some way, to lobby for our rights to exist and thrive and service and contribute to Common Wealth. I am wishing for this to be the momentum when our voice can be clear and our listeners ready to learn about who we really are. As I said, I think I am going through a melodramatic Love and Peace momentum.
  17. That day I am moving to Merida.
  18. The situation has probably changed with time. I have mentioned several times boytoy at the other site, without any consequences. My honest opinion is that Daddy's is the best resource for American escorts related issues, and Boytoy has that place for international escorts. This opinion has been shared multiple times without suffering any consequences. I even recommended everyone to come and sign up here during the closing. It is true that over there there are not only admin but also members with a negative attitude towards boytoy, and viceversa here. However I think time is healing the wounds. I started my connection with our subculture through Daddy's, and was always intrigued by that animosity. I finally joined here to research the history and found everything somewhere in the sandbox. Sad. I am glad I was not involved in that situation. Otherwise, I would probably be in the same situation many friends are now, unable to move on. We are a very small community, stigmatized even by many LGBQT friends and always at risk of being targeted by law enforcement and policy making. I think it is time to move on and work together for our common goals. We should be looking for outside allies to lobby for a more sex positive, and sex work positive culture and legislation. Instead, we are bitching against each other. I am sure I have been guilty many times, but I promise I will try to make a better job.
  19. Indeed he was not perfect and I have never been a fan, but we should judge him for more than his alleged homophobia. The man presided over the end of the Cold War. With someone else in office, we could be still cleaning up nuked cities. As many commentators are pointing out, what makes Bush's life and contributions more meaningful is the contrast with the current commander in chief. Bush's death could mark the end of a political era, or could be the inspiration to return to common sense, rationality, and bipartisanship. Let's see whether Mueller may add some condiments to the momentum.
  20. Salve Divino Tomcal!
  21. It is very moving indeed, but it is hard to say it is not political. We are mourning the Republic, it seems.
  22. Hey, whether or not you like it, it is news in our little tiny slutty universe.
  23. That is new. He always takes a vacation and stops the reviews flow. I was expecting that, as the forums are down, he would also put the reviews website on a hiatus. However, new reviews were posted yesterday and today. I think I remember him talking about developing the code for a bot that would automatize the reviews vetting and publishing process. I wonder if that is what is going on.

  25. Perhaps they actually were too many visitors! Quizás tú eres muy puta, m'hija!
