Joe.My.God. LGBT News

This photo from yesterday is pretty representative of our Sunday evenings. Superdaddy stands near the jukebox and rest of us are mere hairy manplanets in his powerful orbit. You can see how he hates it. And who would have thought that Lil Jon’s Get Low would set an entire room of bears to wildly shakin’ their groove thing?

Review of Hot House porn video Justice, after the jump. Contains some relatively tame but possibly NSFW photos. From Hot House, a San Francisco-based outfit that is successfully working the lightly-tread line between the pretty boys of Bel Ami and the hairy daddies of Titan Media, comes Justice, a 16-man round-bobbin’ of fucking, fisting and lots of enormous dildo action. …

According to Lady Miss Blogger, this is my 1000th post.

I was looking forward to getting to her house and crashing, as she usually took me around the local malls on the days before Xmas and I’d need all my …

Billing itself as a “sculpture for living” with “museum quality architectural loft residences” (whatever that means), the Astor Place opened last year to a chorus of boos in the East Village.
