I'd say in a SC I act as in most public-settings (except I'm usually commando and possibly pitching a tent) - like others I usually don't share too-many personal-details other than my first name - and as @dr_lee above, I'm not one to sit and gab with a dancer for very-long (and I also prefer to jump from dancer to dancer vs sticking with a particular dancer for the visit) - I don't necessarily mind a dancer I'm interested-in chatting-me-up, and I'll usually engage-her; it's just that's not what I go into clubs looking-for - the lack of me spending too-much time with any one particular-dancer usally leads to not getting too-much into personal-stuff.

Now if u vote for any Republican it's a "threat to Democracy" - never mind that it's almost a given for a newly-elected president to lose the Congress on his first mudterm - to the best of my knowledge only one president in the last 60-years has not lost his first midterm-election and that was George W Bush in 2002 and many say it was bc 9/11 had just happened and the country was rallying around the president - even the golden-boy Obama got shellacked in his first-midterm - power-grab anyone? -

I thought Trump was the great satan and if we just got rid of him "everything would go back to normal" - they got their LDK and got Trump out by any means necessary including framing-him; but now if u vote for any Republican "it's a threat to Democracy" -

Per @Mark94’s post – that huge difference in mail-in-ballots is concerning – I really don’t understand why there would be that significant a difference in “certain states” w.r.t. mail-in vs in-person ballots (assuming the in-person stats are not as lobsided) – I’m sure it can be “explained away multiple ways” but I really can’t see why Dems would overwhelmingly “vote by mail” vs GOPers

Part of the reason I want to make my next-car a mid-size-SUV (currently drive a small-sedan) is that I assume their wheels are more resistant to damage from bad-roads (or bad-driving).

I heard that there are some cities in CA that are still implementing a rent-moratorium (or at least until recently; 2+ years after the pandemic) – I heard of one case this guy was renting an upscale house in SoCal and had racked-up close to $100K in back-rent – there was nothing the landlord could do - I guess the local progressive government saw the renter “as the victim” vs the landlord getting shafted for almost 2-years of non-payment – the renter that refused to pay (and couldn’t get evicted) was constantly taking trips to Europe and other popular vacation-spots.

This is why the government needs to be significantly shrank – it’s very easy to give away other people’s $$$

Once a perp pulls out a weapon/gun, then all bets are off for lack of a better-word - w.r.t. a gun one doesn't have the luxury to wait to see what the perp does; that's the unfortunate reality

Dancers can be pretty-transient; likely more-so a place like Vegas – many dancers are also extremely-flaky so even if you get their # it’s often a crapshoot whether they respond or not - for many dancers their re$ponse to a text is often based on how hard-up for $$$ they are at the moment - Vegas has a constant high # of out-of-town visitors and often times for the dancers these custies are out-of-sight out-of-mind and they are onto the next batch of out-of-towners – small local clubs in smaller cities it’s a little different but still many of the same issues apply – often times to stand-out to a dancer you have to be a higher-than-avg spender and often over-multiple-visits for the dancer to want to take the effort to contact you (vs b/c you met her once although one visit can be all it takes sometimes) - this is not universal but applies to a high-degree.

SoFlo, particularly the Miami-area that I’m most familiar with; has been constantly growing and constantly had an influx of people – i.e. I don’t see as much old-stuff (buildings; roads; etc) in SoFlo/Miami vs other areas that may not be growing as fast or have had as big an influx of people over time. When I lived in Dallas in the 2000s I encountered more “old stuff” (buildings etc) and I found more bad old roads than what I was used to in Miami; same thing the few-times I’ve been up-north – one would also wonder if the extreme-weather in many areas significantly contributes to the condition of the roads whether it’s the extreme-cold up-north or the extreme-heat in places like Dallas where in recent summers there have been stretches were it would be over 100-degrees every-day for over a month.

“… @ Papi You know what I’m driving it’s no jalopy …” When I previously posted about the car one drives and roadtrips; it wasn’t necessarily w.r.t. it being a good or bad car – i.e. I know you drive a Benz sports-coupe – these kinda cars are often tuned for performance to some extent (some models more than others) – sometimes they have a tighter-suspension for performance/handling and also sometimes they have tires designed for performance/handling; and these performance tweaks can often be at the expense of ride-comfort and sometimes one does not realize this till they do a long trip (vs a car designed/tuned for luxury and the smoothest most-comfortable ride possible vs performance-tuned).

“… if you’re on the FL turnpike between Ft Pierce and Ft Lauderdale it’s terrible with construction, congestion, and lousy drivers combined with the rough roads if you can avoid it stay off the turnpike …” I’m kinda the opposite – I prefer the FL Turnpike over I95 – for one; it’s a toll-road and IME it’s usually a bit less-traffic – also, 95 seems to have a significant # of more exits (and exits closer together) which IMO increases congestion – the Turnpike also has rest-stops w/ gas-stations where one can usually more-conveniently gas-up or get a quick-bite to eat if one is starving – I assume there may be bad-sections of the FL Turnpike but overall my experience w/ the Turnpike has been better than 95.

I don’t like it when people are outed; e.g. SJG; X85; etc – seems a bit too-vengeful and wanting to purposely damage the other person – if I have an issue w/ someone on TUSCL I’ll try to: + dialogue w/ them at first + if that doesn’t work then I’ll just mostly won’t pay attention to their posts + at most I’ll put them on Ignore – but in my 10-years on TUSCL I can probably count on one-hand the # of people I put on Ignore – I’ll rarely put someone on Ignore b/c I disagree w/ what they have to say; when I put someone on Ignore is b/c I think they’re an asshole, not b/c I disagree w/ them My M.O. w/ people I don’t like is to not deal w/ them, vs trying to go after them – in this situation, IMO the punishment that fits the crime is at most contacting the dancer in question; but leave the offender’s personal-life out of it since in this case @X85 AFAIK was not getting into the personal life of the dancer but AFAIK was talking about her in the context of the club.

My local-surface-streets in the area of Miami I live are not-too-bad but some smaller side streets can be in bit rough shape but they are more the exception - the freeways I find mostly smooth.

I haven't done a roadtrip since b/f Covid - I95 in SoFlo is a nightmare b/w the amount of traffic and at least in SoFlo it feels dangerous AF - when I head north out of SoFlo I have to traverse the 3 SoFlo counties of Miami-Dade; Broward; and Palm Beach; it's not till I get past Palm Beach County that the drive gets easier until I start approaching Melbourne that it picks up but nowhere as bad as SoFlo - b/w 2014 and 2019 I used to hit Cocoa Beach a couple times a year and halfway thru on I95 there was always construction (2 or 3 different sections) although I never saw crews (I assume they worked at night?). I don't usually like taking long roadtrips and rather fly when I can - the longest roadtrip I've done is once Miami to ATL but I didn't use I95 - also driven to Jax a time or two on 95 and didn't find it too-bad; longest I've been on 95 is Miami to South-GA (Midway GA) and didn't find it too bad - 95 is a very-heavily-used interstate and I wouldn't doubt there are some bad-sections but on my short trips I've only found the road-surface kinda rough in the construction-areas. The car one uses can also make a difference w.r.t. long drives and how the road feels.

If I remember correctly @X85 had recently been reviewing Seattle clubs - I didn't read the reviews but saw them on the published list (if I remember correctly) - at the time I wondered if he had moved there or maybe was just visiting?

Small black dives is what I've hit for most of the last 10-years - I'd say 95%+ of the time I'm the only white person in there - I also hit OSC in Philly (seemingly @X85's go-to) back in 2016 and there also I was the only white-person - this is not to say no whiteguys hit these clubs but that they are often a tiny-minority (especially if they're regulars) and thus the assumption that someone that hits mostly black dives in Philly would be AA.

I didn't really follow the recent X85 threads but his bio was not what I was expecting given the types of clubs he visits (seems mainly UHM black-dives in Philly) - I had assumed he was an AA-guy from Philly given how much he knew about the dive-black-club-scene there. But of course I guess often times we assume what a TUSCLer might like from their posts and they are not what we assumed if we happen to meet that person.

It seems there's a segment of TUSCL that either comes from the escort-world, or dabbles in it; and are used to posts where a provider is described in every way possible including all she does; what she charges; etc - seems some guys on here wanna treat TUSCL like it was an escort site.

Strip clubs make a good-chunk of their profits, if not the biggest chunk, from selling overpriced drink$ - few clubs let custies just sit and watch and not buy any drinks - many clubs actually have a two-drink-minimum but few enforce it and most are ok if u just buy one and nurse it (noy let it go empty).

Back in 2016 many said Trump was running just to get publicity - and many of these same-people didn't take him seriously nor gave him a shot-in-hell to win the primary let alone the Presidency

Is this the same guy about the Trump-hat u posted a couple of days ago?

DeSantis is very-popular with GOP-voters - Trump going after-him I think will backfire on Trump - DeSantis also seems very-polished as a politician and it would be hard to land punches on him.
