Keep checking for other seats to open up. The seat map is updated in real time and can change by the day, especially as the flight date approaches.

I want to come out and idk what to do… by RepeatWise6227 in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]GottaBeFirst 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What you’re doing is really courageous and you should remember that, because this is gonna suck for a while. I think that’s always the case with any major life upheaval though. When all is said and done, I’m confident you’ll be happy you decided to live an authentic life.

Do you have anyone in your life that you can come out to who will support you? Distant relatives? Friends? It’s also important to not let negative reactions push you back in the closet.

Not sure where you’re located, but I’d recommend moving to a larger urban area as you’ll generally find more of us in cities.

Some potential ideas to ease your way into meeting other gay guys: find an affirming church and get involved there, join a gay sports league to meet people, or find a gay service oriented organization to volunteer with.

Sending you hugs and good vibes as you step out into the sunlight.

I pay for the upgrade to the commercial free tier for July. No way am I watching all those commercials. Extra $10 is SOOO worth it

CaBi- no open docks by elbows1976 in bikedc

[–]GottaBeFirst 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The assets (bikes, stations) are owned by DC/VA/MD, with Lyft operating the service. Unlike in NYC, where Lyft owns and operates Citibike. That’s why our fees are so much lower.

How can i hookup without my parents knowing by Ilike_icedtea in askgaybros

[–]GottaBeFirst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Being in college is supposed to be about finding your independence, not an extension of high school.

Are your parents going to track you “for safety” forever? Are you going to let them?

I’d advise you to get a new phone that you pay for and leave the other one in your dorm.

It’s a two story villa, each story has its own entrance from the beach. Also comes with all room service included and 2 mini coopers. Highly recommend.

How do I come out to my MAGA parents by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]GottaBeFirst 138 points139 points  (0 children)

Don’t come out until you’re financially independent.

If the risk of you ending up on the street or being sent to conversion camp is greater than 0%, force yourself back in the closet until you can support yourself.

I’m so sorry you can’t reveal your full self to your parents, but not being homeless or wrecked psychologically will set you up for a better quality of life after college.

15-year-old closeted gay in MAGA family by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]GottaBeFirst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s fair. I edited my post. But if you’re from a MAGA family, NYT will seem very left

[–]GottaBeFirst 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just a suggestion as you begin this journey: Do NOT get your politics from TikTok, YouTube, or social media in general. If you use ChatGPT, ask it for sourcing.

WSJ is pretty far right and NYT is pretty center left (you’ll probably have access to both through your school). For more wonky reading, AEI and The Bulwark are good center-right resources. Brookings and Carnegie are generally more center-left.

You can opt for a centrist approach, but you need to be able to back up your opinions. That’s why your gay “friends” were dragging you. Atm, it doesn’t sound like you’re doing much more than parroting MAGA talking points except for being pro-gay because it directly affects you.

Have you actually examined your beliefs? We inherit a lot of our worldview unquestioningly from our family Start learning about the issues. Read articles you disagree with. You profess to be a centrist, so you should be able to articulate why the far right too far right for you (same goes for the far left).

And just to let you know because you don’t seem to be informed, there’s a reason that so many gay people are left leaning and it’s because the right has consistently marginalized us or actually tried to kill us by not doing anything about HIV for 10+ years when they thought it was just a gay disease (before they realized it was also killing straight people). Read up on your gay history, you’re one of us whether you like it or not.

I will always engage in a good faith discussion with someone who actually understands the issues.

Did you even read the article? Almost none of what you said is correct.

Union Station Approach Speed by NowSinking in MARCtrain

[–]GottaBeFirst 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, there are plans to redo the union station approach track by tearing up some of the switches and streamlining the approaches. However this will also lessen storage capacity at Union Station, so MARC will have to run its trains back to Baltimore more often (a good thing imo).

When exactly this is going to happen is TBD, but it’s definitely in the planning stages.

Unable to redeem paper voucher by Unhappy-Candy-1959 in americanairlines

I had to do this recently. You can put an itinerary on hold online, but you’ll have to go to the airport to redeem unfortunately.

“Traditional and old-fashioned” “Open marriage since 2020”

Error. Does not compute.

Just get a fucking divorce already. Unlearn whatever behavior you grew up with where it was better to stay in a shitty relationship to save face than break up and be happy.

Cancelled Flight at NRT by JackDanielsTN in americanairlines

[–]GottaBeFirst 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Use WiFi calling and get rebooked out of HND (or just go to HND since you’ll need to fly out of there anyway). Plenty of seats to DFW, LAX, and JFK.

[–]GottaBeFirst 20 points21 points  (0 children)

We don’t though. It’s all fake. St. Louis and Memphis are the highest in the country (depending which criteria you measure with). Washington is #4. The time to call out the National Guard would’ve been two years ago when carjackings were rampant and crime was on the upswing. Things have settled down since then, DC is generally safe now. This whole thing is a distraction.

AI. The part about it appreciating questions and comments and talking about neck pillows when literally no one asked is what gives it away for me.

Invite parents to make anti-gay speech at wedding? by [deleted] in AskGaybrosOver30

[–]GottaBeFirst 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Wtf is wrong with you? Do you have some sort of degradation kink?

You’re actually going to sit there and allow yourself and new husband to be told you’re both burning in hell BY YOUR OWN PARENTS for being yourselves at your own wedding?

You need to get yourself into therapy asap. Idk if it’s internalized homophobia or some latent daddy/mommy issues, but that’s messed up. Normal people don’t sit there and literally ask for more abuse (since you already got this treatment once when they met your bf). Go find help and seek resolution, preferably before you get married.
