Robert your pictures are glorious and you are as gorgeous as
but I must ask you as someone who has publicly worshipped you for going on three years, how in God's name can you stomach posting on a member's thread who professes to espouse and die for gay causes and ask for support when he has said in just the last few days such disgusting, outrageous, and anti-gay, anti-inclusive things like this--it's all in the threads -- and these are just a few of the stomach-turning delicacies--go check:
These are Pantera's own words:
"You aren't going to find anything but nasty, spiteful, hateful bitchy queens at the clubs and bars. OK, there are exceptions, but that is why they are called exceptions"--pantera aka NAZI. So, that's well over half the club--OR MORE--that partied in Canton just this August. Good luck, Adolph, on getting their support, but how 'bout this:
"OK, you get the point. Get up off your butt, forget the ass-hole queens. Do you see the ladies running the rest of us off this board? Hell, no! They try, but nobody with a life cares."--pantera, the Nazi emigree
DO YOU HAVE A LIFE WHEN YOU'RE HERE 24/7 sliming my brothers. But you got outed:
And accusing Thomas in his new husband-to-be thread of being fast and loose with the truth.
Last month, well before the election, you and others all but VOWED to stay away from the club until after the election. Virtually EVERYONE of them except you kept their word, and stayed away. Nice keeping your word there. You suddenly showed up to bully me and Laundress in the underwear fetish thread, boasting of the superiority of Germany's sexy advertising. Hey! ever been to an Ambercrombe store where the ads are playfully pornographic. Speaking of your imports like Neo-nazis and the skinheads who tried to assassinate our new president the week before last, did you know that your banks are one of the chief culpable entities of the global financial meltdown, but oh---we'll never hear of that on your blog, will we, oh great german obermeister, when everything german is just ducky and every thing American hateful and Christianist.
Did you notice how peaceful and friendly the Sandbox got in your absence?
I most loved how on your last day, a member outed you by asking how a teacher had so much time to post so much and so early in the school year.
And you said German schools were on a different schedule. Oh Really? What?.....
Germany doesn't have a fall semester?
No wait, German schools don't start till after Octoberfest, right? Yeah. It was the first week in October, and you're not back in class. Give me a break. Oh vait, ve dohnt stdart till ve buhrn de chews and hooomoos and de paaaapists and de American Indianhhns ferry lahdte in de fahll.
And then you slimed poor Bob and poor chad who were once you best friends:
" I want to rip the throats out...etc. for Chad, and Bob never was mean to me... " OH HOW NICE. And OHHHHH your volunteer work and your Bubba republican girlfriend at the animal shelter. How nice!!!!!!! what about the republican gay and Christian men who've been in this club for years OR the fact that Bob may be the last white American dying of AIDS.
Or more of your spite: "Timid, shy" queens-- and conservative gays" maybe a quarter of the club who don't have it in them to protest your insane charge that we're not human because some hate-pigs like you said we can't get married.
But you know, Panties-era in a bunch, i could have let all of your usual customary abusive hate-filled, quasi-christianist speech slide till you slimed the only safe place left at Aworg, the Imperial Forum when you said today:
"I don't preface every comment on getting a rusty GE waterpump loose with a diatribe on people I can' t stand"
Who are you sliming now, Adolph?
That stuff almost never happens in the Imperial Forum, unless you're there.
But it happens constantly here, in the Sandbox, mainly because of you. Many people have left Aworg because of you, and just as many won't post here because of you. You call a teenage boy a "racist slime" and that's okay, but if I call you a Nazi, you whine for months.
How much longer do you think you think the membership is going to tolerate your daily invective, vitriol, spleen and hatred?
YOU ABUSE US. YOU BULLY US. YOU MAKE US FELL UNCOMFORTABLE, UNWELCOME, AND MOST OF ALL GAY-BASHED. WHO NEEDS THE HATE-FILLED CHRISTIANIST REPUBLICAN MONSTERS WHEN WE HAVE PANTERA?
People, this is my club too, and i love it here, and i can't stand the stress and discomfort any more, and i will speak out now and forever when hate speech is allowed to reign and potentially destroy this beautiful house, my home and yours where we come to have fun, make friends, make verbal love, feel connected, and come to a place where the nightmare of an abusive predator is the last thing we hope to encounter. Expect me to call out all abusive, bullying, hate-mongers, now and forever till i die to protect this beautiful sanctuary for us rare gay washer lovers who had no safe place to go till Aworg found us loved us accepted us cherished us......if I told you how hard Robert hugged me after the story in Canton of the beautiful vacuum man in Manhattan who died, you'd envy me--unless of course you've been hugged by Robert before. I was so shocked and moved, i was almost paralyzed, and I wish i could hug him back the right way, again. I'm sticking up for him because the foundation of his house where he keeps us and loves us is breaking and he's too loving to fight. SO HE HAS ME. HOW ABOUT YOU? Are you too shell-shocked to come to the Sandbox. Well don't be. The reigh of terror and abuse is over. I promise. It might take a while and i can hardly do it alone, so please help me restore this magnificent club to what it once was, safe, freindly, loving, and certainly gay-friendly, never gay-hating or bashing. Never. IMAGINE: Aworg beating on queens. I don't think so. Not any more. Not while I'm breathing.

from pantera to a little boy I don't even know.
dahlinks,
It is time to let Chad (not you, programcomputer), Bob and all the others rest in peace. Well, not the teenage racist swine. Him, I would gladly hang by the balls (I have the micro-forceps and a good magnifying glass) then slowly dip him into a vat of angry scorpions. What am I saying, he'd poison the poor beasts.
Let it go:
One, Samantha is forgiving, she might well ask them back at some point. It is her decision, not ours.
Two, who died and appointed us gods? There are several of us here whose personalities are strong enough that a few of the killer queens get their panties all wet in excitement over one or the other of us every week. I don't preface every comment on getting a rusty GE waterpump loose with a diatribe on people I can't stand.
It's time to grow up. We have people out there who just declared us to be non-human. If we don't hang together, we will hang separately.
The LDS managed to organize, the christianists are doing a great job at the pity-party. There are bigger threats than Exploder's tenuous grasp on reality. thank Goddess Aworgina
FROM MIKE:
How would you like to be this kid's mom or dad and hear a teacher talking like this to your son?

who's the killler queen whack-job, now, Adolph--look in
More panteresque hate-speech--pleasant isn't it?
"The killer queens are a pain, but easy to ignore, they're just compensating for not having a life by pretending to be important here. The real whack jobs, the ones who denounce people to the FBI or attack people viciously like Bob, well, that's why they're whack-jobs..."
Let's pay the guy who called the FBI on him. Sorry it wasn't me--oh well!

A fitting quote:
First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win. - Gandhi
I don't know if there really were as many folks as being claimed, but 3,000 cities sounds good.
Robert, thanks for the pictures.
Anybody know what's up with Day Without A Gay? I'm proctoring orals on that day for a colleague who's still in the hospital, so I will have to work...but I did have a student (can you say butch-biker-mama? you'd better, and smile when you do it!) write me to ask if we couldn't do something symbolically.
I used to have lunch right here on this spot 25 years ago, kinda neat to have an association.

Best quote of the day:
"I'm a little bit country, you're a little bit fascist."
protest chant in Missuola, Montana!
The task now is to take advantage of the tremendous organizing and communication tools the Obama campaign showed us.
We can win, but if we weaken half-way through, the backlash from the christianists will be all the stronger. The greatest weakness in the gay community is our indifference. You may not want to marry, but letting people take away your right to be married is on a completely different page.

Well, really - I think we can do better than that!
Ladies, (and you know who you are)
It is time we had a serious talk.
I don't like you, you don't like me and life is just fine.
Part of being a fading killer queen is having your own little clique. But no clique is complete without two things.
One, somebody to hate (I can just hear Freddie singing that, can't you?)
Two, a patsy to set-up and be the throw-away pawn for playing your games.
I don't mind being the light of your dreary little days, having a real life myself, it doesn't matter to me. We all spread the joy however we can, though in your cases, pancake makeup and careful lighting probably would be a better investment.
Thinking of you,...
On to number two. You have chosen someone as a patsy here who really and truly is dependent on your approbation for her dreary little existence. She's not much of a princess, hardly a bitchette, thrice removed. But still dahlinks - she's all she's got and will ever have.
Stop setting her up to attack me, she doesn't have the wits to realize you are only laughing behind your age-spotted hands at her.
Cruelty to animals, children and the mentally ill is beneath us. It's worse than wearing white shoes after labor day, it simply isn't done.
So give it a rest.

The truth sets everyone free, but it often hurts
NO ONE in this club launches daily un-addressed hatred to "those members" of whatever vicious description of the day you chose to use. NO ONE but you. Everyone knows this, and they're not going to take it much longer. These are club members, men whom you purport to defend in the great abstract of gay rights but in the concrete reality of real people in your club, you insult them daily. Your hypocrisy is mind-boggling.
You are a classic Abnormal Psych 101 textbook case of a self-loathing human being who projects onto any handy target.
You are either the most disturbed sociopath, or the one truly evil man in our midst, currently raging and truly out of control.
If you think you are going to get away with your abuse, your bullying, and your pathological lying any more, you're even crazier than your insane words suggest.
And like any clueless self-deluded sociopath, you have no empathy for harm you bring to innocent people, nor any sense of the number of people who know how sick you are. You are quite a monster. Congratulations. That's quite an achievement.
The flusher is coming, a Unimatic pump that whirls dirty water at 1140 rpms, and you're down the toilet.
How does that lovely ditty from the "Producers" go?
CHORUS: It's SPRING time for HITLER in GERMANYYYYYY.........

OK, mickeyd
enough is enough. I won't have you dishonoring the memory of tens of millions Jews, devout Catholics, Roma, gays, handicapped, elderly and political dissidents tortured and murdered by the national socialists.
Please stop it.

The good news in all this is that a few years back, the gay marriage ban initiative passed with some 65% in favor. It was then thrown out this summer by the Calif. Supreme Court.
This time the gay marriage ban amendment passed with only about 52% in favor. So the electorate is getting more gay-marriage friendly with each election. In a few years another amendment to rescind the gay marriage ban might just pass.
Meanwhile there really needs to be an amendment to make it a little more difficult to amend the state constitution (after the gay marriage ban is rescinded, of course ;-). Currently it only takes a simple majority to amend the constitution. In effect, the mandate for such changes need be no more than that for a simple initiative/law. It sort of questions the need for a constitution in the first place.

Why oh why do I read these threads...?
Mickyd,
Take it from one who knows. No use in fighting here. The vocal ones are the ones prove to conservative Americans that they are exactly right. And they don't care, they believe they are right, no one can tell them otherwise, they don't want to try any other tactics, and want to bully everyone else into accepting them and use facist tactics to force the point of view down everyone's throat, all the while screaming and crying about persecution and facism from the other side. No use, Mickey, no use. They are going to call you names and belittle you, and if not "you personally" then the facts that you base your beliefs on. Better to use your energy for something more productive that you believe in. Better to wear your AW.org badge of "ignorant", "stupid" and "self hating" as a badge of honor and just move on. No argument is going to win.
But, I will say that Panthera has been a gentleman to me personally, altho' we sure don't see eye to eye.
Meanwhile, I attended a rally today with about 2,000 people. By far a better use of my time! Heard some great speakers like Mike Huckabee, John Linder, John Oxendine, Neal Boortz and Saxby Chambiss. Now, that was something I think is much more important and much more worthy to support: 1) the Fair Tax and 2) keeping more balance of power by getting Saxby Chambliss re-elected in the run off on Dec 2.

Yeah, Alan, "wow"
Mickeyd has single me out for these attacks every so often, purportedly as the spokeslady for the reigning queens. Any time I post in Imperial, there's always a good chance she'll be snapping at me heels soon there after. Warning, lots of posts on restoring a '53 (could be a '55) slant front Westie dryer coming up in a few weeks, with some money shots from under the skirts of a thumper ( and she's pank!).
And thank you, Peter. I know I am anything but subtle (sound of several hundred eyes rolling), and I fear my progress must be measured in millimeters, not feet...but enough is enough.
Maybe the fit has passed off her now and we can return to our regularly scheduled programming...until her next bout of feline allergy.
If I know a member's post is going to upset me, I just don't read it. Seems easy enough to me.
Oh,Peter, have you ever followed Conn Caroll or Russ Douthat on bloggingheads.tv? Now those are conservatives capable of coherent thought (they're still wrong, of course, only I hold the eternal truths in my hand) ((that was a joke, dahlinks-I have paws))
