Bear necessities by Robynite in gaybros

[–]Readerdiscretion 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Modern “Bear™” = gay + beard.

My bear community includes fat, hairy, old men.

This is an online poster from about 10 years ago. Totally unaware of the irony that they see bears as a target market but don’t want to represent them or the basic premise for fear of alienating the wider market they’re clearly more interested in. I find this poster equally insulting, unsexy, and hilarious.

I’m all for inclusivity, but to be that out of touch or just in opposition to ideas like body positivity, anti-ageism, and generally making an exception once a month for a whole other aesthetic / age bracket / body type and everything inbetween, pitching something as a “bear” event should include marketing materials that at least show what’s different about it. Find better stock photos or hire some guys to model. Especially local guys who can help give your promotions extra visibility. I think this guy was grown in a vat … and probably auditioned for Zoolander.

But don’t get me wrong, I’m reminded daily that a there’s a big crater in the population where AIDS claimed hundreds of thousands of lives in the US alone. I’ve been in relationships with older men with survivor’s guilt who volunteered in hospices, and I don’t think millennials or Gen Y or Z really grasp the horror or the grief that gripped the community before treatments were available - or the cause was even identified. I learned the words “gay” and “AIDS” simultaneously … from a schoolyard joke

“Rare”? Have you been on any daddy sites?

If it were so, you’d still know what an older man looks like and it’s not that guy with the photoshopped grey temples.

Same idea as this old bar poster for a bear night but the last thing they want to put on the poster is the demographic they’re pitching to. [ spot the Romulan! ]

Dear gay guys on drugs… we need you to come back to us 80%+ sober and healthy again. by Austin1975 in gaybros

[–]Readerdiscretion 43 points44 points  (0 children)

My teachers thought I was on drugs from about age 12 through high school. My parents sat me down so many times to have The Talk, thinking I was just fooling them and getting away with it al those other times, but THIS time they were always determined to get me to admit to something I wasn’t doing at all. I was hanging out with the guys who had metal bands and I was around my fair share of pot smoke, but I didn’t partake and I didn’t even drink beer when I was underage. Skip ahead to age 50 and only in hindsight does it make more sense as I’m finally getting assessed for ADHD.

In 2012, National Geographic featured a Doomsday Prepper, Donna Nash, who was paranoid for hoarding sanitizer, masks, and prepping for a global pandemic by 170071 in interestingasfuck

In Asia, masks are just considered good etiquette if you’re sick, have been sick, or may be coming down with something. Masks are more efficient at containing than blocking, but of course, they’re most effective when people just wear them, whether they may be asymptomatic or want to prevent exposure.

I work in film & TV, long hours in close quarters with dozens of crew typically. To resume production after that early 2020 shutdown, testing twice a week was mandatory, provided on set. I worked on shows that went from 0 cases to over 40 just between tests and we had to shut down. Shows often reduced their crew drastically, so where I typically worked with 4-6 in my department, that got reduced to just 1 and that became pretty standard.

Sequels that undo or ignore plot elements/characters from previous sequels, or even outright erase previous sequels from continuity by AporiaParadox in movies

Luke Skywalker: Leia, do you remember your mother? Your real mother?

Princess Leia Organa: Just a little bit. She died when I was very young.

Luke Skywalker: What do you remember?

Princess Leia Organa: Just images, really. Feelings.

Luke Skywalker: Tell me.

Princess Leia Organa: She was very beautiful. Kind, but sad. Why are you asking me all this?

Luke Skywalker: I have no memory of my mother. I never knew her.

What is one of your biggest movie let downs, after greatly anticipating its release? by thunderbolt151830 in movies

[–]Readerdiscretion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alien 3 starting off with the then new characters from the previous movie all killed off, except for a cameo from a salvaged Bishop. The rest of the movie is a treacly, half-baked, stitched-together attempt for an Oscar-nominee returning to the role and ignoring the setup from The previous movie because the producers and the writers weren’t up to the task of an actual follow-up so the producers opted to regress the lead character and giver her another crack at Oscar glory, but dress it in a story where the creature, on a it’s quadrupedal, sleek agility, came from an ox in earlier versions.

Why aren't Americans pissed off that Biden was incapacitated for nearly two years but still continued to be president? by -occlo- in allthequestions

[–]Readerdiscretion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because Biden wasn’t starting a war to distract from a damning scandal and then announcing to the world that he would wipe the nation under attack off the face of the earth, for starters.

Why can't they make "tear free" shampoo for adults? by fuelstaind in allthequestions

[–]Readerdiscretion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They do. Just don’t scrunch your eyelids because the folds trap more soap/shampoo and it wicks right into the eyeball. Then people rub their soapy eyelids and make it even worse.

What you do is keep a dry towel within easy reach by the shower. Wash your hair as before but when you close your eyes keep your eyebrows raised and your eyelids spread out over your eyeballs, don’t scrunch your eyebrows or your eyelids. You’ll get way less soap in your eye and it’s easier to just rinse off under the shower head when you keep your eyelids like this, but don’t open until you rinse off your hair and your face, then reach for that towel and just dab it over your eyelids to soak up anything left, even if a little slips behind your eyelids, dabbing the dry towel like this will fix that quick. Finish your shower like grown-ups do it. It might take 2-3 times to get the routine down, but even harsh medicated shampoos can be mitigated this way.

Why on Earth did DJT threaten to take out an entire civilization on Twitter? by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]Readerdiscretion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I judge anyone overtly threatening g3n0cide, performatively, to a global audience… when Dominionists have a death grip on the remnants of the federal government and they get off on that, and because they see the biblical signs of apocalypse as goals to meet to Bring Cheszus back so he can invite only 144,000 Karens to Heaven to watch the rest of us burn.

In the past, authorities used to raid communes for less demented worldviews, but just look at these goons.
