Death said:As far as I can tell, you need written consent before anything gets posted, right? 😁

Well, don't expect to see my name on any lists then, because I'm not going to agree to something that just isn't true... 😁
If I were in your shoes, honestly, I’d be a little worried. 😁 Maybe try changing up your cologne? 😁

You really think it was the scent? I could have sworn it was more about the facial expression... 🤔
Nobody's been looking my way for ages. 😁

Should we check with the guys at Chase? 😁
A sincere apology goes a long way. 😁

And sometimes, it's pretty much necessary... 🤣
They aren't mixing, that's true, but that doesn't mean they *have* to be standing side-by-side. 😁

I mean, look, I don't think they'd kill each other if they were together, but they usually tend to steer clear...
Plus, apparently mentioning the local dive bar is just asking for trouble—the lesbians already started fighting over it.

walter said:Forget about I. L-a—honestly, I’ve heard women go crazy for him even more than they do for Elvis Presley. 😎

Okay, maybe women are into him, but he isn't exactly looking at them that way.
Seriously, just check out that thread about breasts—he already made his preferences pretty clear there. 😛

Marco said:Iskorak is showing some serious backbone here—this whole coming-out move actually helps us all build America into a true civil society where people don't have to live in fear of being discriminated against for any reason at all.

Tomorrow, Iskorak is dropping a list of names in the newspapers, basically marking the first official "Coming out day" in America, dedicated to those who are ready to step forward and be open about their sexual orientation.

Kudos to Iskorak, and thanks for helping make America a better, brighter, and more inclusive place for everyone!

Okay, buddy, why don't you try explaining to the rest of us how publishing a giant list of names—which, let's be honest, most people couldn't care less about—is actually going to "democratize" anything?

And honestly, why does it even matter to me who's gay and who isn't? Do I really need a newspaper list to tell me that?
Seriously, this is just embarrassing.

I don't get the point of this stunt at all. When someone decides to come out, they usually tell their family, their roommates, or their actual friends—not some random crowd of strangers who couldn't care less. This is just more self-promotion from the Equality Now folks and that lesbian advocacy group. I'm honestly sick of this kind of nonsense.

Coming out day in the Arab world:
http://www.myrtlebeachonline.com/mld...n/12857371.htm

A few wild highlights from this:
One guy’s mom actually used to drag him to psychiatrists just to get him slapped with antidepressants—and honestly, whenever she sees him now, she just grabs whatever's closest and goes to town on him. Talk about intense, right?

There's also this whole mindset where people over there view being gay as some kind of disease being spread by Israel and the US just to tear down Islam from the inside.

Hundreds have been arrested—yeah, actual police arrests—and the article mentions stuff happening in places like Egypt and Saudi Arabia (where they can literally sentence you to 2,000 lashes!). Plus, in Palestine, there are these legal groups that basically just target them with everything they've got. It's gotten to the point where a huge number of Palestinian gay folks have had to seek asylum in Israel, and the article doesn't even touch on the ones who were forced into those "atonement" situations where they end up blowing themselves up in some cafe. Just absolutely heavy stuff.

Some quick highlights--
His mom used to drag him to psychiatrists just to get him on antidepressants, and whenever she sees him now, she just hits him with whatever's within reach.

People over there think being gay is some kind of sickness spread by Israel and America just to tear down Islam.

Hundreds have been arrested—yeah, actually by the police—and the article points to examples in Egypt and Saudi Arabia (where they hand out 2,000 lashes), while Palestinians deal with vigilante groups who just shoot them. It’s gotten to the point where a decent number of Palestinian gay people have sought asylum in Israel, though the piece doesn't even mention the ones forced into "atoning for their sins" by getting blown up in some cafe.

And then we've got our resident risa-wanna-b. 🤣 🤣

Man, look at this list! 🤣

What if this whole thing is just some random group of a few hundred people typing up names just to pretend they’ve actually "come out"? 😁
I’m not buying any of it until I see full names, including last names. ☕
If being part of this movement is such a big deal and they're all supposed to be these big personalities, why aren't they putting their actual identities on the line? 😁

It just feels like pure propaganda... 🤣

Man😁 😁 you’ve gotta have some guts to actually step up and move forward😁 😁

It kind of reminds me of those old chain letter things—Jonathan G. didn't pass one along, and three days later his cousin passed away😁 😁

haha Since I brought up chains, it made me think of that parade of guys... everyone's bumping into each other, and the guy at the very end is just there for the vibes😁

From some other forums... 😁

They’re acting incredibly brave, but let’s be real—it’s easy to sit behind a screen and type out a thousand names claiming they’ll change the world or hit some massive turning point, when in reality, nothing is going to happen at all. That whole list is just a testament to how foolish people can be; there’s honestly no point to any of this besides making things feel easier for the gay and lesbian community, which is just ridiculous...

I think I’ll put together a list of everyone who thinks they’re a vampire or feels that way, since apparently, a list of names is coming out this Sunday...

What a complete disaster they've cooked up...

>😁

Yeah, they should probably just run an ad saying "we're just regular folks from Brooklyn" 😁 and then list thousands of names, only to add a little note at the bottom asking, "So what?"

😁 👍 👍

Marco said:The Step Forward organization is showing real civic courage. By making this coming-out move, they're helping us all build an America that functions as a true civil society, where citizens don't have to live in fear of any kind of discrimination.

Step Forward will be publishing a list of names in tomorrow's newspapers, marking the first official "Coming out day" in America. It's dedicated to those ready to publicly share their sexual orientation.

Kudos to Step Forward. Thank you for helping create a better, more beautiful, and more vibrant America!

It's fake news! They're just listing names and initials, like a crime blotter for criminals!

Such primitive propaganda. All to highlight a small group of sick individuals as if they were "normal." And for what? To be "accepted" by whom...?🙄 🙄 🙂

And why push this into the public eye? Isn't this just imposition? Isn't this a violation of the civil rights of normal people?😕

It's tragic to see how Bandić and the City Hall waste money. Meanwhile, our hospitals are struggling with basic shortages...

A smart person would see that...

walter said:Get Bill Clinton out of there! 😁 😁 😁 😁 😁


He isn't even on that list... walter, what are you thinking? It's just a roster of nobodies—insignificant people who don't matter to anyone. Once you finish reading it, you'll just think, "what a joke."

The real goal here is... a distraction. And let those hospitals stay hotspots for infection... since they're running low on disinfectant...

Hey there, walter!

You've leveled up!

When a comrade says something like that, it's a win for you—respect! 👍 😉

Marco said:That coming out carries symbolic weight and plays a huge role in our nation's democratization process.


Just like this current "democratization" happening in Iraq..." 🙄 Well, things moved a bit more... "smoothly" here, but hardline capitalism definitely hit its mark. Now... hospitals are running out of basic anesthetics, and Bloomberg is paying off special interest groups—running ads just to get those "vulnerable" folks to show up... all to "sensitize" the American public...

It's honestly disgusting...🙂

I.L said:Just like this whole "democratization" mess going on in Iraq right now..." 🙄 Well, over here, things went a little... "smoother," I guess? But hey, hardcore capitalism definitely got what it wanted. Now we’ve got hospitals running low on basic anesthesia, while Eric Adams is out there paying—get this—paying ad campaigns to certain groups just to make sure those "vulnerable" folks show up... you know, just to pull at the heartstrings of the American public...

It’s honestly gross...🙂

So, what’s the move then, Eric Adams? Should he just hand all that anesthesia over to them instead?

Mr. Pease said:Did you guys manage to snatch up all the top spots here too? Is that why he’s feeling so low? 😢


👍 😁

Yeah, sure, our Jewish brothers are everywhere—always number one. They're all chasing those "high" positions... honestly, talk about complexes! 😁

They’re publishing lies! Just a first name and a last initial followed by a period... just like they do in those true crime tabloids when they're talking about criminals!

That is significantly more than just initials, such as
I.L.

What exactly are you so afraid of?
