Generationing is a type of gift giving in which one gift giver successfully infects a previously-uninfected man with HIV, and then the two men collaborate in an effort to seroconvert another man, and so forth. Stealthing is another type of gift giving in which...

Alarmingly inappropriate topics and questions tailor-made to corrupt kids' relationship with their parents. As the recent school board elections concluded nationally, Colorado experienced a significant increase in parental school board participation across the state, with one notable exception being the 9R School District in the southwest corner of the state. Always a major factor was the Durango Herald, which has abandoned any pretense of being a defender of the First Amendment, and a local Democratic party machine that has assumed the ideological blindfolds of being in lockstep with the national Democrats now operating as cultural Marxists. As incumbent 9R Democrats...

The CDC now urges public indoor masking after a worrisome study on the Delta variant — undermining the vaccine effort. We finally know what drove the CDC to revise its guidance days ago without explanation to recommend that fully vaccinated individuals wear masks in public indoor settings in areas of the country with high or substantial COVID-19 transmission. The Washington Post released a July 29 CDC slide presentation, and the CDC confirmed that one of the unpublished studies cited was pivotal in its decision. The slides largely just confirm what was already known: The Delta variant is more contagious than...

After posting a comment in another thread about the 'CDC Study' on Delta behind their nonsensical 'guidelines' from yesterday, another FReeper replied to me, “Vaccinated Gay male outbreak in a single town in single state.
