You do make up definitions, such as your claim that Body Dysmorphia (transsexualism) is a sexual orientation.

Careful now - your transphobia is showing again!

OK, so a couple of things to unpack here:

1. The election here (this was an election in a Central Florida town near Orlando - nor THAT far from my own home! - the next metropolitan area to my East..) was held in March, 2020 - not November, 2020... different election cycle, and one in which the local races were the ONLY races... no national ticket on the ballot, not even Primary voting!

2. The results of the election were pretty iffy... first count showed candidate A won by one vote, then a re-canvass mysteriously found exactly 2 votes, BOTH for candidate B - reversing the election

3. As with Trump's case, a court case was filed...

4. UNLIKE Trump's cases (all but one of them), the court found evidence and probable cause, and it went to court... the results of which were that those 2 extra votes were indeed "bought and paid for" by candidate B (instead of watching some incendiary, partisan VIDEO, try reading the local Orlando coverage here

5. Just a note here: in the one case where Trump's team won, they indeed got a court order... allowing the vote count observers to be an extra 1-3 feet closer than where they were permitted before. Both Dem and Republican observers were always given the same space, the suit just asked for that space to be CLOSER, and the court agreed.BIG WIN!

And finally, I'm not aware of any legitimate claims that were was NO FRAUD in any recent election - including Nov 2020's... only that there was NOWHERE NEAR the level of fraud needed to change the outcome! In this case, they needed 1 vote... in Trump's case, he needed thousands!

As a proud Republican, I agree with that sentiment: just not enough fraud (actually, less fraud than is "normal") to HOPE TO overturn the certified election totals!

We (Republicans) won up and down the ticket! We just lost the Presidency because we had a historically unpopular and historically polarizing candidate...

MAYBE, had we had a Republican Party with enough GUTS to allow actual PRIMARIES, we could (MAYBE - longshot, but MAYBE) have replaced Trump on the ticket and actually WON! (I know - I'm dreaming - he'd have won those primaries, had they been held... what? You can have your wild-ass dreams of the "big lie", and I can't have mine of a primary defeat?)

NOTE: The only Presidential candidate to ever score lower - in their own party, much less the general population - in pre-election polling was Hillary Clinton! Thank the LORD ABOVE that we didn't have HER... but even so, was Trump really THAT MUCH BETTER?

OK, yes, but not by as much as we'd hoped!

While this article is mainly focused on fisting for women (vaginal), all of the points are good and valid for anal fisting as well

Top tips:

• Be patient! Don't measure yourself against a porn video!
• LOTS & LOTS of lube! then add more lube!
• Be patient!
• DO NOT USE numbing agents (including lube with numbing agents in them)! Pain is a bad thing and blood is a bad sign! If it hurts, slow down. If it bleeds, STOP for now!
• Be patient! (You don't have to take a full fist the first time!)

Oh, and BE PATIENT!

FWIW: I've been a fisting top since my 20's...

Define accidental pregnancy?

Accidental pregnancies are pregnancies that are mistimed, unplanned or unwanted at the time of conception

You only read the first three words and then decided to comment.

Mistimed is do to poor planning, Unplanned well that's do to what poor planning, Unwanted at the time of conception has nothing to do with getting pregnant at all.

An accidental pregnancy happen only when the birth control used fails or do to rape. Can you think of any other reasons? They still make up a small amount of actual pregnancies.

If you don't agree on the definition of words debate and compromise can't exist

Thanks Humpty Dumpty.... for the record, I didn't "make up" my definition of an unwanted (or accidental) pregnancy... I quoted directly from the CDC

And, I'm sorry, but if you limit the definition of "accidental" pregnancy to incest and rape, you're missing an awful lot of unwanted, uncared-for babies out there! (Not to mention that a sizeable percentage of incest pregnancies ARE planned!)

Once again, I say that - to folks like you - the value of a fetus is immeasurable... but the value of the child's life 2-minutes after actual birth is very measurable indeed... and quite low at that!

@raphjd said in The Oral Arguments on Biden's Vaccine Mandate Were a Total Disaster:

@bi4smooth

Let's not forget that Fauci, Biden, the CDC boss (can't remember her name), and the Mayo Clinic all originally said that if you get the shot, you can not get or spread covid. This is despite the fact that scientists knew that we have never, ever found a cure for any coronavirus type infection.

They are now singing a corrected tune.

Not surprisingly, your fellow liberals still believe the original BS spouted by the "experts". Only a couple of weeks ago Whoopi was questioning why she got infected since she was triple vaxxed. You see the same shit all over social media from the various "blue checkmarks" spouting "the vax is the cure" BS and then getting butthurt when they get it.

ROFL - so when any Liberal misreads/misinterprets "science", it's a mortal sin, but when conservatives do it, it's just a minor mis-statement? bullshit

I've said this before: PREVENTING INFECTION of the host is NOT the role of a vaccine! Fuck the COVID-19 vaccines, it's not the role of ANY VACCINE - not one, ever!

Vaccines "teach" the body how to fight a disease (infection)... depending on it's effectiveness, it can make it as-if there was never any infection at all (e.g. no symptoms), but in MOST cases, it just makes the illness less severe, and the recovery time much shorter.

AGAIN: The analogy is having a "cheat sheet" when you walk into school for a test... said test is a LOT easier, and you are able to complete the test MUCH faster - if you already have the questions and answers ahead of time! That doesn't mean you SKIP the test, only that it's no longer a stressful event, and you're pretty well guaranteed to pass - possibly even with an A (assuming your immune system is otherwise strong!)

Also, vaccines (none of them) actually STOP diseases... what they actually do is to reduce (often DRASTICALLY) the period of time that someone WITH the infection/disease is contagious and can spread it to others. (There are a few vaccines that are SO effective, that the infection never even "takes" in the body... these are called "sterilizing" vaccines, and are rare.

When you reduce the time during which an infected person (sometimes to near zero!) is contagious, you reduce the speed at which the pathogen can spread... slow it enough, and you can actually eliminate it!

That's what happened to Small Pox, and we nearly got there with Measles (unfortunately, the anti-vaxers got more popular with their wild-ass conspiracy theories - like vaccines cause Autism - and the number of vaccinated people against MMR (Measles/Mumps/Rubella) dropped sufficiently that there are now often small outbreaks of Measles around the world - even here in America [the US]).

That was the GOAL early on with COVID-19: wipe it out! Stop it in its tracks... but to get there, we'd have needed another 20% or more higher participation rate in the vaccine programs, and extremely contagious variants - like Omicron - couldn't have happened.

The GOAL (hope?) today is that Omicron will "flood out" the other variants - and with its significantly reduced mortality rate, it becomes more "endemic" - which is to say that it's like the Cold or Flu - something we KNOW is out there, lots of people get sick from it, and a few even die... but only a few and it's not a "major health threat" anymore. (Fingers crossed!)

But there are LOTS of stupid people (aka: stoooooopid people!) out there peddling wild-ass theories: like the vaccines make you magnetic, or cause the COVID-19 illness themselves, or are fatal to large percentages of people who take them, or have mind-altering (thought-controlling) micro-robots in them, or cause infertility, or alters your DNA, or (a personal favorite) the vaccine can be "spread" just like the COVID-19 virus itself!

On top of that, you also have people who self-interpret the science... people who read epidemiological reports as-if they were the Sunday Paper and mis-characterize what they've read...

This latter category is where I put people who inadvertently think the vaccine is a protection against getting the virus at all! (News flash - you'd have to "plasticize" your entire outer body to keep the virus out completely!)

There are other "misreadings" of COVID-19 epidemiological reports, like the one about myocarditis in children. First, myocarditis is just an inflammation of the heart. Not something to be taken lightly, but inflammation is a common side effect of any vaccine - because you're stimulating the body's immune system, which is what causes inflammation to start with! It's the fact that it's the heart becoming inflamed that was (that remains!) a cause for concern and further monitoring... but so far, THANKFULLY, 100% of the children where this was seen recovered completely... on their own... with no damage to their hearts (at least none we've been able to see so far - we haven't exactly removed their hearts to know for sure!), and there have been 0 fatalities in healthy children who've taken the vaccine.

All of this to say this:

Misinformation about COVID-19 isn't political, it's personal. People believe wild stories (like: the vaccine is intended to control your mind, or that 750-million people caught it in just the past day) because it "fits your own political narrative" (e.g.: you believe it only because you want to believe it - in spite of it being clearly and demonstrably false to others)... and that willingness to "suspend disbelief" - whether from the Right or the Left - is what's truly endangering us these days... whether it's COVID-19, the vaccines, the 2020 election results, or UFOs!

@valldelxeno said in Can't port forward, how to get a decent ratio?:

I realise the answer here might just be that I can't, but I thought I should at least ask. I can't port forward - I don't have access to my router settings - so while I am available to seed, I'm not getting many people connecting to me at all. Any advice on how to deal with this?

So if you're using a more advanced torrent program (like qBitTorrent), it "advertises" to the router that it's listening on a specific port. Newer routers can use this "advertisement" to "auto-create" the port forward.

If that doesn't work, look at a VPN that WILL detect this "advertisement" - like NordVPN.

@dc2009 said in One star spammer!:

@bi4smooth said in One star spammer!:

Forgive me - but, do any of you actually care about the "star" ratings on a torrent before you download it?

Honestly, I never really look at, much less give weight to, the "star" ratings!

That's just me tho...

Well I did when I first got on this site. Was wondering why all mature older bear stuff got 1 star ratings and no comments. So since i was new here I didnt feel like wasting ratio on something that might have been real bad (damaged files, super grainy og just real poor quality) Then a nice experienced user sent me a message saying that it was just a troll giving those bad ratings and the rating system is bullshit. That was 4 years ago and the troll is still going strong lol. Another thing is that its just disrespectful to all the uploaders spending time on sharing stuff with others for free.

IMHO (and it's jut my personal opinion), PORN is a deeply personal thing... Unless there was a way to see how other INDIVIDUAL USERS rated torrents, ANY rating system is "suspect"...

Some people HATE the skinny little twinks I ADORE!
Some people LOVE the tatted and pierced whores that I HATE! (intentionally hyperbolic there... to make a point!)

We all have unique tastes! When I first started here, the forum and the comments of bareback torrents were FULL of people objecting to them outright! Blah blah blah...

Around that same time, there was a considerable push to add "circumcised" as a category (actually, I think the idea was to make UN-circumcised a category, as a vocal minority wanted to be "protected" from downloading "offensive" torrents with uncut dicks in them!)

The point is: we all have our likes and dislikes... and the "rating" system - ANY RATING SYSTEM that is site-wide and anonymous - is flawed...

@geobear40 said in The Oral Arguments on Biden's Vaccine Mandate Were a Total Disaster:

@raphjd
They had an indefinable position.

Ummm... have you followed this at all?

So, for the record: the reason the SC Oral Arguments were a DISASTER was not because of the Attorneys or their arguments - on either side!

It was because the LIBERAL Justices (esp. Sotomayor and Breyer) kept spouting completely FALSE information - WILDLY FALSE information... like:

• Sotomayor contended that the vaccines prevented the spread of COVID-19 before Omicron, but not anymore (FALSE: the vaccines have never stopped the spread of the virus - what they do is lessen the severity of the infection, and therefore reduce the amount of time the sick are contagious... true, that slows the spread, but in no way could be construed as a "blocking" the spread of the virus!)
• Sotomayor contended that Omicron is just as deadly as Delta (FALSE: Omicron has shown a FRACTION of the morbidity of Delta, and even a fraction of the morbidity of the original! In fact, the case is being made NOW that the low mortality rates of Omicron may lead to COVID-19 becoming more endemic than pandemic! And that's GREAT news! It still means you need to get the shots, but it also means the unfortunate few who CANNOT get the shots, and the moronic others who simply REFUSE to are less likely to DIE as a result of their condition (whether that be medical or stupidity)...
• Sotomayor claimed that 100,000 children are "in serious condition" from Omicron, and are "on ventilators" with COVID-19 disease (FALSE: the CDC reports a FRACTION of those numbers... what fraction? - about 3% of that number, in reality!)
• Breyer claimed that hospitals across the nation are "at capacity" as a result of COVID-19 and Omicron (FALSE: some areas of the country are seeing spikes that are taking them CLOSE to capacity, that's a long way from the entire country's medical system being "at capacity"... hyperbole, they name is Breyer! (@raphjd should welcome him to the club, though they are ideologically opposites LOL!)
• Breyer claimed that there were 750-million new COVID-19 cases just yesterday (from the date of the oral arguments: Jan 7, 2022) (FALSE: this is just absurdly false, even assuming he's talking about WORLD-WIDE infections... maybe he misspoke and meant 750,000?

So, 2 things to take from this:

1. The attorney's cases weren't the total disaster - it was the out-of-touch and totally mis-informed Liberal Justices who were a disaster (for the Biden position, no doubt!)...
2. Trumpites DO NOT have a monopoly on the abuse of hyperbole, exaggeration, and outright lying when it comes to trying to persuade others that your absurd positions are supported by "facts"

@geobear40 said in Pelosi Blames Trump Supporters for a Murder Committed by a Farrakhan Devotee:

@raphjd
They have to make a boogie man to run against. Their policies are indefensible. They are going to lose control of both houses of Congress, State houses and Governorships.

Sigh... yes, we Republicans are likely to win back both houses of Congress (House and Senate) - but we shouldn't pat ourselves on the back too hard on that one: both are held by Dems with the SLIMMEST of margins, and the party with the Presidency nearly always loses SOME seats in both chambers in the off-year elections... just 1 Senate seat is enough, and just 6 house seats are enough, to flip control.

The "history-making" event would be if we DIDN'T win control with the existing numbers!

As for control of the State-level legislatures, that's because we (Republicans) have long-term focused our "grassroots" attention there (as well as county and city-levels)... THUS, we've out-maneuvered the Dems (and have been for many years) because we control the majority of States' legislatures - the ones that draw the congressional maps!

Thus, even though we (Republicans) OFTEN lose in the "raw counts", we WIN in the counts that matter (like the Electoral College) - because, certainly at the Party level, we're just plain smarter than the Dems!

November 3, 2020 they will step back and blame Trump, Racism and the voting rights laws that they still think people of color are too dumb to get an ID.

Um - I think you mean Nov 8, 2022... you know, the one in the FUTURE?

Just because the Republican PARTY is smarter than the DEM PARTY doesn't mean all of our members are...

@eobox91103 said in A neighbor’s noisy toilet is a human rights violation, Italy’s top court rules:

Italy’s top court has added a new human rights violation to a list commonly thought to include enslavement, torture and forced starvation: the sound of a toilet flushing at night. That country’s supreme court ... concluded a 19-year legal battle that began when a couple living in a flat near La Spezia complained that their neighbors’ new toilet was keeping them awake with “intolerable noises,” according to the Milan-based newspaper Il Giornale.

Full story at https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2022/01/18/italy-noisy-toilet/

And we thought judicial issues were messy in the US...

Washington Post articles are (for me) behind a paywall... Just saying...

Here is another link to the same general story: HERE

Truth be told, if my neighbor's toilet was a full 3dB OVER what the WW-II-era treaty's maximum noise level, then I'd likely be upset too! (Remember that the dB scale is logarithmic!)

But I also think the idea that the problem is the freaking TOILET is actually FUNNY....

@esterlion said in Stuck at "finding peers":

@b779a Ok! thank you so much, gonna check that
Yeah the weirdest thing - I think! - is that it seems to work fine with torrents other than those from GTRU. Its only with torrents from here that it just doesn't start downloading

That would lead me to believe that there is a firewall of some kind in place. (NOTE: Firewalls can block based on NAMES or IP addresses...)

So, for "public tracker" torrents, your ISP can detect you're use of torrenting with that tracker, block it, and there are a dozen more to take its place. The "list" of public trackers are different NAMES as well as IP addresses...

But GTRU is a "private tracker" - so it your ISP decides to block the NAME tracker.gaytorrent.ru - our only tracker - then you may be SOL. The GTRU tracker is actually behind a service that's designed to "protect" against "attacks" on single IP addresses (CloudFlare) ... so, IP-level blocking probably wouldn't work...

So, if we assume that the block is by name, the fix for that is easy, and is actually a recommended setting to anyone who doesn't want your ISP tracking your every movement on the Internet:

• Change your default DNS service!

Recommended settings (can be made in your local router, but I prefer to override in my Windows or Linux clients themselves) is to force your DNS server to one of the following. (These are MY favorites - there are others!)

• 1.1.1.1 & 1.0.0.1 - Owned by CloudFlare
• 8.8.8.8 & 8.8.4.4 - Owned by Google
• 9.9.9.9 & 149.112.112.112 - Owned by Quad9

Also-Rans (one reason I like the above is the ease of remembering the IP addresses... I'm a computer consultant, so I have to enter these ALL THE TIME, so easy-to-remember is a big plus for me... maybe not for you...)

• 84.200.69.80 & 84.200.70.40 - Owned by DNSWatch
• 208.67.222.123 & 208.67.220.123 - Owned by OpenDNS
• 4.2.2.1 - 4.2.2.4 - Owned by Level3 (purchased by Level3, and unlike others, does not promise privacy).

Use this link to re-configure your Windows system to use specific DNS servers.

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/01/pelosis-top-pick-chairwoman-transportation-committee-repeatedly-crashes-car-parked-vehicle-walks-away-video/

That video was taken just a few weeks ago, too!

Shesh!

(What do I mean about "a few weeks ago"? That video is from 2015 - only about 400 weeks ago... and when you're inflating this kind of crap, that's all within the realm of "recent")...

If this now 84 year-old woman is still (or has ever) DRIVEN for the US Government, it is certainly time to revoke her Driver's License! No argument there!

But, does that have any bearing on her ability to chair the Transportation Committee? Honestly, I think her AGE would be a bigger concern than her driving skills (or lack thereof)....

Again - I don't support her attempt to step up and be the next Chair of the Transportation Committee - but, while referencing the IRONY of a Transportation Committee-woman's poor parking skills is FUNNY, it is hardly the kind of REASONED rationale for denying her the role.

Forgive me - but, do any of you actually care about the "star" ratings on a torrent before you download it?

Honestly, I never really look at, much less give weight to, the "star" ratings!

That's just me tho...

@geobear40 said in The truth about liberal media:

@bi4smooth

Define "accident pregnancies" without using excuses that are up to poor planning or plain old stupidity.

Are you for real?

Define accidental pregnancy?

• Accidental pregnancies are pregnancies that are mistimed, unplanned or unwanted at the time of conception.

Just what else could it mean?

Come on, Humpty Dumpty, tell the rest of us what "Accidental Pregnancy" really means!

(For reference: Humpty Dumpty is a reference to a character in Lewis Carroll's "Through the Looking Glass, ca. 1871 - he is an egg-shaped character who argues with Alice about the meanings of words. His famous quote is specifically:

• "When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, "it means just what I choose it to mean—neither more nor less."

It is considered a "childish rant" about the deliberate misuse and/or misapplication of words. It has been used in arguments in both British and American courts - including the US Supreme Court - and I use it here in that same spirit.)

@geobear40 said in The truth about liberal media:

@bi4smooth said in The truth about liberal media:

Statistically speaking, in America, the chances are pretty good (well over 50%) that your mother didn't get pregnant with you on purpose. It was, maybe, a happy accident - but an accident, nonetheless.
Personally, virtually all of my children was mine - on purpose - ... because I adopted them. I would venture to say that most, if not all, of their biological parents were probably surprised by the pregnancy that created them (which explains why they were such terrible parents!)

Do you not believe in personal responsibility? Accidental pregnancies are such a small percentage of the total. A "happy accident" is only an excuse for poor planning and use if birth control.

I am so glad people such as yourself will adopt these kids who are unwanted by their biological parents.

"Accidental pregnancies are such a small percentage of the total."

You actually believe that bullshit?

You're a clueless one, aren't you!

I'm sorry, I don't even have to say more than that! If you believe that, then - well, you are far less informed than any adult male over the age of 25 that I've ever met! Enough said!

We can do better than off-the-shelf Charmin; see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BpXtAhiKHBE

Hilarious! Thanks for that!

So I entered puberty at age 9 (very early) - I can document this because they took class pictures throughout Elementary school... you know the ones: smaller kids sitting on the floor, legs criss-cross, a row of kids behind them on their knees, and another row in the back with the tallest kids standing... the teacher off to the side, and a little sign in front showing the teacher's name, the grade, and the school.

Well, in 3rd grade, my class pic looks like there are 2 teachers... except the tall one opposite the teacher was me - quickly approaching 6-feet-tall!

My 4th grade class picture was similar, but I've lost my 5th Grade class photo... But, I will say this: my 6th Grade English teacher told me she passed me because I was "too big" to hold back!

So there I was, 6-ft in the 3rd Grade, age 9 - and my neighbor was a family with a 12 y/o girl, a 13 y/o boy, and a 15 y/o girl.

I was walking home from school one day and happened across that 12/yo girl in a wooded area (it was a shortcut path all the kids from my neighborhood took)... anyway, she was curious, I was curious, so she showed me her 12 y/o growing tits and little patch of hair over her pussy, and I showed her the little patch of hair over my grown (maybe still growing - I don't really recall) dick. I got it hard for her and she was ecstatic. It didn't happen THAT DAY, but later we started fucking...

The following fall, she started Middle School (6th Grade) and started fucking "older" boys (no doubt, with bigger dicks - I may have had a "man's dick" at 9, but it was still - and remains to this day - a totally average-sized penis... nothing to write home about, LOL.

When I was 11, the brother and I were playing in my backyard pool... one thing led to another, and we sucked each other off... later that week, we fucked in his bedroom (on his waterbed!)

So: 9 with a girl, 11 with a boy.

I've had an "active" sex life ever since - with both men and women - but last had sex with a woman in 2011 (with my now ex-wife). I'm open to it again, but since I'm dating a man currently, I'm hoping it never goes there!
