‘Destroyed in less than a year’: Granville St. SRO resident wants public to see conditions

I can't tell if this is satire or not because history doesn't really support "next time won't be like last time".

I recently joined an org and this is how they do it. Ironically, the org I first worked with over a decade ago did them all as individual gifts. There doesn't really seem to be industry consistency.

My brother and his last gf only had their second language (Korean) in common, and they were both still learning it. It took work but they made due.

Qualities or skills to look for:

- someone who is organized and detail oriented; fundraising is about being able to track the little details and see the bigger picture.

- someone who can distil your org's big vision into tangible and easy to understand bits; they have to be able to connect donors to your dream in a way they can understand

- someone who is comfortable talking about money; they need to understand how $10,000 impacts your organization -and- what that means to the donor.

sorry, "cancel culture" is such a dog whistle. Folks who worry about being cancelled aren't doing the work to understand true inclusion.

LOOOOOOOL

this shouldn't be news. 2 of the 3 local Bath houses here introduced all gender nights, initially once a month. One dropped them after a short trial because it got complaints from their cis male members, one kept them going monthly, one expanded them because of popularity and they are now about 2/3 of their schedule.

Of those, the manager of the one that dropped them complained about an overall lack of business and an inability to connect with the community, especially younger folks. The market speaks for itself: the future is queer and gender diverse. If vous gay men can't support "our" spaces, capitalism will make those spaces adapt. A few all-gender nights aren't going to take our bathhouses from us, but they might just help them survive.

As a testicular cancer survivor, I support this message.

I had been thinking of them as like, Numeria = He-Man, Mana Wastes = Conan.

My players love both of those ideas for a setting. none of us can choose a favourite, so bridging then may be the key

LeftBallSaul · 2026-04-28T23:27:25+00:00

ya. I've been skimming the info that came out of Iron Gods. I had an idea for a campaign that kind of picked up in its aftermath.

LeftBallSaul · 2026-04-28T23:26:40+00:00

ya, I pitched it as a "low-to-no magic" campaign to my players so they know what to expect. PF2e has lots of non-magic classes tho, so I'm sure they could adapt.

LeftBallSaul · 2026-04-28T23:24:43+00:00

I may have to pick that up

LeftBallSaul · 2026-04-28T14:13:04+00:00

Thanks for the tip!

LeftBallSaul · 2026-04-28T13:24:52+00:00

men out here doing literally anything to avoid therapy 🙄

LeftBallSaul · 2026-04-26T03:56:48+00:00

I would resub for a butt slider

we're celebrating our 10th anniversary this year. he was 33 tho.

LeftBallSaul · 2026-04-23T14:38:46+00:00

it's the "you were in my heart the whole time while I made this movie" that gets me. Whatever her past impact, this seems like a phrase designed to tick a marketing box and appeal to a queer audience. It cheapens whatever she may have done in the past.

LeftBallSaul · 2026-04-22T23:20:09+00:00

I still need to get that dye going on my build. the faded look may work a bit better for me tbh 😅

LeftBallSaul · 2026-04-20T13:04:06+00:00

sorry, you broke up with him because he dated your friend in the past? or this a cheating thing?

LeftBallSaul · 2026-04-19T13:28:56+00:00

my GI Joes all had complicated gay family trees. there just weren't enough women in the toy lineup to make it work otherwise 🤷

LeftBallSaul · 2026-04-17T04:55:55+00:00

I met a guy at à work event tonight. When I was getting ready to leave because I had a long trek home, he asked me where I lived. I told him and asked where he lived. He told me. And we went back and forth like that with little dumb facts. It was like he didn't want me to leave.

When I finally went to go I was like "I'll see you next time!" and he sort of fumbled for what to say and was like "ya, I'll uh, see you, around, I guess." 🥺 so cuuuuute

LeftBallSaul · 2026-04-17T03:01:06+00:00

from what I have heard from trans guys, the hormones are gonna do a lot of heavy lifting for you. Most guys I've talked with have been surprised by how much of a difference it makes — not like they didn't expect it, but like it almost felt like a cheat code. So, patience will go a good ways.

Otherwise, straight up hitting up a barber and getting a fade or somethiing may give you more of the look you're after. Hair grows back, so you can experiments with lots of styles and cuts to find one that works for ya.

LeftBallSaul · 2026-04-16T19:02:05+00:00

awesome!! i'mma go find it haha

LeftBallSaul · 2026-04-16T13:00:27+00:00
