I believe I’ve been a member 13 consecutive years and have maintained the same screen name. The respectful nice guy that gifted me was a former member, a member on my friend list, someone I knew under a different name. It just took him a couple of years to say “hello”.

It's not the needle that I fear, it's the sting.
It's because of a few bad experiences. It was for a work health checkup once. That needle to draw blood thicker than usual. We always have a survey after the checkup,
so I complained about that needle hurting. They got back to me and told me that no one had ever complained about it (
Another time was during the Covid pandemic. There was a shortage of needles, so they used every Eastern European drain-pipe that they could find. The first and third jab were fine, but the second was very much not nice. It still hurt minutes after.
It’s been many years since then and I honestly DO NOT like needles. I have to look away, the phlebotomist and/or whoever is administering the injection, is a witness to my anxiety and sometimes tears. I never would have been able to be a needle using drug taker…..

but only you yourself can improve your health.
Health or lack of it is not just genetic or accidental,
you have a lot of influence over it with food, water, sleep and exercise.
Ask Grok: "What type of diet is best to reduce heart and arteries disease?"
Good food choices for hypertension management include:
Bananas (contain about 420 mg of potassium per piece)
Leafy greens (spinach, kale, Swiss chard)
Beans and lentils
Sweet potatoes
Avocados
Oranges and melons
You can do exercise without spending a cent. It's just a matter of moving some muscles, raising the heartbeat and working up a bit of a sweat.
My hypertension is reaching risky levels too, I've just measured close to 180/100. It's up and down, depending on how I treat my own body. I went to sleep too late, woke up too early, didn't take my supplements, didn't do any exercises, so it's up today. Last week,
I got it down to 140/85, by doing everything right. It's not fun, I would rather eat what I want and I don't like exercises, but heart disease and needles are no fun either.
My doctor isn't giving me any medicine yet. I have to improve my food, water, sleep and exercise, just like I'm telling you. I mainly have to loose weight. Maybe that's not your problem, but the regiment for your health problems is still almost the same.
The worst you can do is take artificial sweeteners. They tell the brain that something sweet is coming in, creating an insulin spike, lowering the sugar in your blood, because there is no actual sugar coming in. Then the body starts screaming for sugar even louder.
Bananas are just an easy source of potassium and slow sugars (which balance the sugar in your blood). There are other sources of potassium. If there is no potassium food that you like, just buy potassium pills, because potassium is really important if you have hypertension. It can give almost immediate relief. Just don't overdo it, because that's not healthy either.
And just to be sure, I assume you know that salt (sodium) is very bad for you when you have hypertension. You don't have to cut it to zero, because then all food tastes like cardboard, but try to reduce it to the minimum. If you are emptying a bag of potato chips each day, you're killing yourself. Factory food almost always contain lots of salt, sugar, saturated fats or oxidized unsaturated fats. Healthy food is expensive, but if you buy smart and invest time, you can eat much healthier for the same money.
Food factories are turning the cheapest ingredients into PROFIT. They turn unhealthy ingredients into something that people love to eat, by adding sugar, fat and salt,
and feeding the addiction. If you cook for yourself, and be smart about it, you are making money and saving your health.

Like him or not, agree with him or not, he was supportive of the marketplace of ideas
and willing to debate everyone.
There's just one thing though, just because he was active in politics, doesn't mean
that this was political violence. Remember the attempt on Trump's life?
All of the right-wing pointed fingers at the left, but it turned out to be just another lunatic.
When he turned out to be a right-winger, you lot either shut-up immediately or you kept blaming the left somehow. Some even kept saying that he was a lefty of liberal.
Can you wait with pointing fingers, until you have evidence?
And another thing: the same day that Charlie Kirk was murdered, there was another school shooting. Only the shooter is dead and 2 kids were wounded, but you know
how often this turns out worse. It hardly gets any coverage from the news anymore.
Do you think that political commentators have more right to be safe than children?
Charlie Kirk never empathized with school shooting victims. He calls them 'worth it'.
I support his right to say these horrible things, but I don't think that people like him
should be immune from the danger that children suffer each day, because of his ideas.
Care about all the victims, not just your preferred political commentators.
On August 8, 2025, DeKalb County Police Officer David Rose was killed by Patrick Joseph White, a shooter who fired at the CDC complex in Atlanta. White, who died by suicide after the attack, expressed deep discontent with mRNA COVID-19 vaccines, believing they had harmed him and others. The incident, which involved over 500 rounds of ammunition, heightened anxiety and trauma among CDC workers and prompted calls for improved protections for public health employees. I didn't hear anyone talk about this, here.
That's a proven politically inspired murder and mass murder attempt. Does anyone care?
All Democratic politicians are shouting that from the rooftops right now, including all liberal news outlets, and all liberal and lefty channels on YouTube. You really have to search hard and long for a lefty extremist who celebrates Kirk's murder. They exist,
of course, but I've found no one with a big platform.
Have you seen all Republicans say murder is wrong, when a Democrat or liberal
is murdered, or attacked with the intent of murder, with a clear right-wing motive?
All the right-wing media is still blaming the left, while every right-winger with a platform is calling for violence against the left.
They are all hypocrites.
When I have an infected wound, it's not "necessary" to take antibiotics, but I generally prefer it over cutting out the infection or waiting until I possibly need an amputation.
The chance for anyone to get Covid at some point in life is close to 100%.
The question is: "Do I want to beat it myself or do I want a immunity system head start?"
I think that I would have survived Covid without getting vaccinated, I'm not old and weak, and I generally have a decent immune system. Still, my brother is 4 years younger, and he had Covid before anyone else had it, because he was at the carnival parties in the south of my country, when it first started to spread quickly. He told me that he had never been as sick as that before. He felt very sick for a week, then had a horrible cough for weeks, and 3 months later, he still had trouble walking up a flight of stairs.
After 2 shots, I eventually got Covid. It wasn't fun, but I have had worse flus and migraines that were much worse.
[Before you think that I am saying that Covid is a flu, I'm not. Those are 2 completely different species of viruses. It's just as wrong to say that Covid is Ebola.]
I missed work for a few days, because I didn't feel like working, but I didn't spent any daytime in bed. After I beat those symptoms, I had a bad cough for a week.
What's important to say that I'm overweight and my brother isn't because he does a lot of physical work. There were many UNVACCINATED men of my age and weight who went to the hospital, were put into sleep on a ventilator for sometimes weeks, and lots of them died. More than 1000 men of my age and weight have died. Vaccination reduced that risk by >90%. The risk of severe illness is reduced by about 95%.
So, I had a personal benefit from getting vaccinated.
The general benefit of me getting vaccinated is that I probably missed less working days, when I eventually got sick. I suffered no long-term effects from it. There were hundreds of thousands of people in my country who did suffer long-term effects or
are even still now not fully recovered. That's a burden on society.
I don't know if the mRNA-COVID-19 vaccine saved my life, but it's possible. Many unvaccinated people died, I know several cases from within my circle of acquaintances. I also know people who almost died and people who are still having after effects.
I don't know anyone who died after getting vaccinated, not from Covid and not from side effects of the vaccine. The statistics are in line with the anecdotal evidence around me.
Besides the mRNA-COVID-19 vaccination, I'm vaccinated against Diphtheria, Tetanus, Polio, Pertussis, Measles and Mumps. That's all the standard ones and Mumps at a later age, because I never had it. Those vaccinations were also not necessary to maintain my health or save my life. I never had any of those diseases, except Pertussis, a few years ago for 3 months. The vaccination effect diminishes after 40 years and the bacterium Bordetella pertussis has mutated. After 3 months, the doctor gave me an antibiotic and then it was gone in a week.
Why would you NOT get vaccinated, if all the information shows you that the benefits are much higher than the risk? I looked into all the claims that the mRNA-COVID-19 vaccine was killing people, and I concluded that those claims were either false or unverifiable. Those claims were coming from the same side that was spreading nonsense to people who don't have the knowledge to dismiss the nonsense. When they are telling me that mRNA-vaccines are gene-therapy, I know that to be nonsense.
There is no system in human cells to include mRNA information into our genes.
And that was even the least dumb conspiracy theory. They were saying that there are micro-chips in the vaccines to track you? Why? People are already carrying their surveillance devices in their pocket. Do you think they can make an injectable micro-chip that can do the job better than your smartphone? They claimed that vaccines were a time-bomb to decimate the population. Really? So they want to kill all the people who trust the government and big pharma and kill all the "critical thinkers"? If it's all a big conspiracy, then that vaccine will keep all the obedient people alive, while they kill the "critical thinkers" with the 100% lethal virus. That's much more logical. I'm still waiting, but neither conspiracy turned true yet.
Let me reverse the question: do you only accept medical treatment, when it is necessary to maintain your health and save your life? Did you ever use medication? Was that medication 100% safe? When you take medication, who do you trust that the benefits outweigh the risk? Are those other people than who told you that the mRNA-COVID-19 vaccine is safe? Can they ever prove to you that mRNA vaccines are safe or will you never trust them?

Perhaps y’all have heard me say that I enjoy McDonald’s iced tea, IF NOT, I DO! So today I pop into my local McDonald’s to purchase and enjoy an iced tea after my 3 mile-ish walk. Just another average day in small town Michigan…… What wasn’t “average” was that I happened to be in line behind a man who apparently identified today as being a woman. How did I come to this conclusion? The masculine voice, the larger feet, the leg hair all screamed “MAN” however the purse as well as the silhouette of the bra appearing through his tight tee-shirt and the massive “lady humps” that the bra held were an attempt to present him as a “female”. In one respect, I applaud him for living his authentic life however it bothers ME that I recognize that I am left confused and bothered.
Out of one side of my mouth I say that I’m happy he’s living his authentic life and being his authentic self, yet it bothered me. Perhaps it’s that mentality, MY MENTALITY of; not with me, not in/with my family, not in my life, not in my town, this only happens to someone else, this only happens somewhere else…… Does that kinda make sense? I probably would not think twice if I experienced it in California or New York City, but not in my town. I would like to think that I am open minded but apparently I am not and that bothers me a great deal.
I will “admit” to this, I’m not keen about too many tattoos OR piercings, either. Regarding piercings, sometimes both guys and girls go too far with piercing their face. If he wants to pierce his scrotum, have at it. If she wants to pierce her nipples, oh well, I don’t care. Now tattoos are another matter. On the face, in my opinion, not good, kind of a scary look. A sleeve, full sleeve on a man is kinda sexy. A sleeve/full sleeve on a woman, not so much…..
A co-worker is a manly, but slender guy with long hair and a mustache.
Sometimes he wears manly clothes and sometimes he wears women's clothes.
He doesn't behave any different, but sometimes he just wears a dress and feminine ear-rings, like big red, orange or pink ones. That confused me. I didn't let him or anyone else notice, because I value his right to wear whatever he wants, without raising uncalled attention. Of course there is a dress code, so he shouldn't walk around in just a leather harness or something. He's just a gentlemen dressed as a lady, without in any other way pretending to be one. That confuses me. I have so many questions. However, that is none of my business, so I don't ask. If it doesn't come up in conversation, and he doesn't show any desire to talk about it, then I don't think I have a right to know all about his personal opinions or feelings.
Would I say I'm bothered? A bit, because my curiosity is not answered to, but other than that I have no negative feelings about it. I do have very positive feelings about him being accepted like he is.
I don't think society will ever progress to a state in which no one even notices anymore. Most of us have the standard sexual identity and attraction wired into our brains. That results in behavior and feelings which are consistent with the standard biology. Society might learn to more accept the biological variations, but people with standard biology will never appropriate those biological variations, even though some people are very worried that it's happening. People didn't all start writing with their left hand, when left-handedness got accepted. We are not all trying to do that, to fit in with the minority. We just accept it from others. People still say "Oh, are you left-handed?".
If I read correctly, the only thing you are bothered about is being bothered about it?
What is the feeling that you get when you are near them? When I first saw my co-worker,
it resulted in a feeling that I would describe as an 'error message' in my brain. I wouldn't say it bothered me, but I noticed some discomfort. I was still able to have a normal conversation with him. He never talked about pronouns, so I just call him 'him'. But, I wouldn't call him 'him' to his face, when he wears women's clothes, without raising the subject. It just didn't come up yet. That discomfort is gone now. I am always interested
in what he's wearing that day though, which I couldn't care less about for anyone else.
I did have such an 'error message' in my brain before, but a much more urgent one.
Years back, we went to an erotic fair, for the second or third time. That year, they had drag queens as greeters, they call themselves 'door bitches'. These ones were over the top, very tall, and I would say sexy too. They made me shy, and that doesn't happen a lot.
One of them made a kiss in my direction and said: "Hi honey!", in a very low voice.
That resulted in an 'error message' in my brain, of the likes last seen on Windows ME.
One part of my brain was filling my dick with blood and the other part of it screamed
"IT'S A GUY!!!!!". Interesting feeling. I hope I didn't show it too much.
Yes, you are correct, it bothered me that this man standing no more than 3 feet away from me, seemed to bother me and my senses. As an f.y.i., I am enrolled in a cardio drumming class and the instructor is a very butch female. Throughout my years of living and working, I have encountered a number of super butch women and I did not stare OR “analyze” them with the same intensity as this man. My actions bothered me.
Maybe you are spot on with regard to what you call it, my brain experienced an “error message”. Whatever it was, I didn’t like it, again, I thank you for your kind and wise words.
I can confirm that I never had the same “error message” in the brain, for a woman
who acts, dresses or even looks like a man. Over the years, we had friend circles that included gay men and lesbian women. We also got to meet their friend. One or two of the friends of the gay men gave me a few of those “error messages”, but the friend circles of the lesbian women never did. Don't you think that is strange?
I don't think it's societal, it must be something biological, but it's so strange that a woman feels it the same, for the same people, as a man. Overtly gay behavior is exaggerated feminine behavior. Drag queens are dressing and putting make-up on to create an exaggerated feminine look, with big tits, big butts and big red lips. That should only cause an "error" in the brain of a straight man, because it is attractive to straight men. Why would this cause an "error" in the brain of a straight woman? Straight women shouldn't be attracted to exaggerated femininity? However, butch lesbians are appropriating masculine behavior and looks. That should be attractive to straight woman. Why would that not result in an “error message” in their brain?
I am sure it's related to attraction, because I have had similar feelings, that I wouldn't really describe as an "error", but more like a "siren". I had that feeling in the sauna, when we were in a hot-tub with several people. There was one beautiful brown women that had already caught my attention, but I acted cool. But then she stood up to leave, passing along with her perfect ass about a foot from my nose, giving me direct view of her shaved pussy. Calling it a "siren" in my brain is an understatement. Can your head explode, without anyone noticing? I think I managed it.
I got a similar "siren", but only DEFCON 3, not DEFCON 1, when a very good looking woman showed me how to lay down on an x-ray machine. I was sitting on a chair next
to it and she lay down in a fetal position, making her tight jeans work very nicely together with her lower body, at very close proximity.
I accept the similarity of the brain "errors" and brain "sirens", as good evidence that
they are both related to my biological attraction.

I guess admin got tired of having problems with verifying members and he eliminated the verification status symbol
--------------------------------------- added after 112 seconds
Also, I don't see a verification symbol on anyone's page anymore
I wonder if that's got anything to do with or conjunction with that warning symbol that admin introduced a few weeks back upon a member's recommendation. The other day, the same member that I'm referring to referred a SYC member for deletion because in her gallery of 22 pictures, Yandex was able to find 6 matches on one picture. Yandex showed that the picture was found on two amateur sites, two adultism.com sites (I consider adultism to be amateur) and there were two other sites. To me, the member's pictures looked consistent and I voted NO ABUSE. The member had a big meltdown.
This is the picture that I am referring to.
/6umgqawl03owpic.html
--------------------------------------- added after 2 minutes
I posted a couple of pictures of me on two other sites about 12 years ago and never went back to those sites
Let's see if admin will respond to our concerns. 👍
--------------------------------------- added after 6 minutes
It seems like we getting new judges so our pictures can upload.
Do you recall the other day when notynyt referred DOUBLE2 for deletion and the Yandex link he used as proof had 6 links and 4 were amateur? Then he added "check properly" because of the NO ABUSE votes? BOOM! And now "regulations require that all uploads are viewed before publishing". Whew! notynyt is going to be busy!
--------------------------------------- added after 79 minutes
My sincere apology to notynyt for thinking that he had somehow spearheaded this change. notynyt, I am sorry that I spoke ill about you..
BOOM! And there you have it folks. So apparently admin has helluva lotta work ahead of him and we just need to sit tight and be patient.
~•~ I just saw the verification option. I didn't ask any question to the admin.
~•~ thank you Admin. 🙏
Make no mistake thinking you are anonymous wether t it be the dark or clear Web. Bitcoin is not anonymous either... Blockchain der. I personally have had malicious links from this site. But I run a VM. Virtual Machine so it don't matter and been playing with the internet since it's conception.
The one good side is less fakes, not foolproof but a step for the fake Hunters. And no CP.
Regardless of the outcome, Revenue is the only way this site will survive. Don't be a cheap, Buy a membership and points, whatever. Just support the site or it will be gone and all will have to go to NN 🤣. Jk we have been here since day dot and love it.
Changes are always going to happen, it's harder to swim against the tide.
Support = Revenue = Great site.
Have a great day
