  1. The 1975
  2. A fairly effective film about the early days of AIDS from its discovery through the political machinations of its progress through the 1980s. A story every young gay man and woman should know.
  3. The fire crackled and its light sent shifting shadows throughout the darkened cottage. It was warm and it was good that it was warm because a sudden chill had fallen upon the countryside. Moira, Sean, and Joraan huddled around the fire after their own fashions. Moira and Sean were on the couch cuddled up to one another like two peas in a pod under the covers. Joraan lay on the floor at their feet, luxuriating in the feel of the warm wood floor beneath him. The fire seemed to affect him diffe
  4. Happy Birthday, Mikie!
  5. Grief teaches us lessons in compassionate love. What we perceive as an unendurable trial later reveals itself as a mighty tool to assist someone else who needs help. In times of grief take strength that upon its survival you will become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.
  6. Far too young . . .
  7. Amen with a ragged Leonard Cohen Hallelujah
  8. My Snowflake character is all excited! Time to wax them skis!
  9. Well, here's the thing. I know here where I am the younger ones no longer take HIV as seriously as I think they should. They figure that there are medications that can control the virus so they don't take the precautions they should. It's scary to me so I'm a big advocate for PrEP. I actually just got my battery of tests done to get ready to start PrEP myself. I'm not that active, but I'd like to have the protection anyway. I grew up during the worst of the AIDS crisis. It's one of the reasons I didn't come out for a long time. I saw the devestation of that sum of all plagues first hand. Playing with that beast is just crazy as far as I'm concerned.
  10. Well, I wanted to get it over here before I forgot. My brain is doing a thousand things today so I'm completely scatterbrained. This seemed to be the safest place. You guys are welcome to move it anywhere you like. I'm just excited that they've discovered this! Yay!
  11. I wasn't sure if this would be controversial or not so I played it safe and put it in the Pit. I get in enough trouble with my big mouth as it is, but I wanted to put this news somewhere.
  12. Breakthrough in the fight against HIV and AIDS! N6 may be the key to a cure we've been looking for these 40-some years now: https://www.niaid.nih.gov/news-events/nih-scientists-identify-potent-antibody-neutralizes-nearly-all-hiv-strains

    Chapter 21

    "I wonder why Billy's been so quiet lately? I've seen him do this before. He holds stuff in and it just goes to silly places. I'm here for him. I want him to remember that. He's not alone anymore."

    The Rapture of Alexis

    Indeed we do.
  15. I awaken in the arms of complete and blissful comfort. Imagine, if you will, laying upon a tongue, but one not icky with spit. Just soft, mildly textured for stimulation, perfectly conforming, and warm like a womb would be. Yes, it is very much like a womb. The comfort of your mother's womb and the complete safety none of us remember, but long for all our lives. This is the comfort of Poseidon's living bed! I come alive within its soft embrace. It wraps me, covers m

    The Sun and the Sea

    It was for someone who needed a poet's hug today.

    The Sun and the Sea

    I'm glad you caught my meaning.
  18. The sun will set and it will rise and the sea will gather and it will release but in the sun's setting and in its rising and in the sea's gathering and in its releasing Both remain the sun and the sea and both will remain together and always be
  19. Welcome to The Election Day.

    Being Fixed

    This will be a very good thing. Everyone I've known who has had their gallbladder out when it goes bad feels SOOO much better. Much love Mikiesboy. I look forward to your recovery.

  22. It's a right and a duty. Very good Drew. I'm proud of you for taking this seriously. I also voted, but being superstitious and old I only tell others what they like to hear about who or what I voted for.
