20240318 Grindr shut down? Gengardener's Art. Weight loss drug helps HIV patients.
You aren't obligated to argue with a homophobe about their anti-medical beliefs. Also status of Moderna vaccines important to Gays.
Subscriptions are free.
Is the shut down of Grindr, Scruff, next? I am investigating.
I don’t know all how this works, but I have to wonder if Texas State Attorney General Ken Paxton will be going after the Gay apps.
Ken Paxton is a member of a big homophobic church, Prestonwood Baptist Church, Southern Baptist denomination. Click on this image.
Locally the so-called leadership isn’t asking questions because they worry what the straight people will think.
Imagine Grindr going dark.
Don’t think this won’t spread to other states.
Don’t think that a VPN will be necessarily the solution. Can you get Grindr to work on your phone through a VPN? I don’t know. However, I do use this following VPN when I travel. I used it when I was overseas and it worked very well. Some of the VPN services don’t have a wide spread distribution of servers and some are slow.

I suspect that Ken Paxton will try to go after the VPNs, but I don’t know if he is able, or will be doing that right away, so this might be a short term solution, but not the permanent solution.
I have reached out to a leader in Gay studies, focused on China to learn about the Internet Firewall of China which blocked sites. Initially they used VPN, but after awhile the Chinese shut down that also. I have made other inquiries.
I also suggest finding out the location of the servers which host your website or newsletter. There was a porn service that got sued since their hosting/server service was in Florida. The local prosecutor decided to go after them and the computer company.
This person is local and follows the Democratic Party and she is a partisan for them, however, I think that this post is worth reading to understand that they want to have Christian theocratic control over the Internet in Texas.

Christians are the only group going after PornHub. A lot of feminists are trying to shut it down also.
Reduxx is on a campaign to eliminate porn, endlessly reporting on some person using or involved with porn committing a crime.

The people who are part of the LGB not TQ groups, generally are also anti-porn and anti-sex workers.
What happens is that Gays get impacted.
Medical news is after the artists sections.
This is a directory post to links to posts where Gay artists have been showcased.
Over 35 artists, I need to recount again to know exact number. Click on the image.

Helps avoid fat related problems specific to persons with HIV.
From the article.
Studies presented last week at the Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections in Denver, Colorado, suggest that the anti-obesity drug semaglutide not only helps people with HIV to lose weight but also reduces certain conditions associated with fat accumulation that are especially common in people infected with the virus.
It talks about how specific problems such as fatty liver and adominal fat build up for those who are taking HIV medicines.

You are not obligated to dispel a homophobe’s anti-medical beliefs.
Paxlovid works very well against Covid as a treatment reducing symptoms and problems immediately. It turns out anti-vaxxers have moved on to being against Paxlovid also. They are called anti-paxxers.
I see on Facebook and elsewhere people arguing with anti-vaxxers. The first question you should have when confronted with an anti-vaxxer or someone giving consideration to anti-vaxxer beliefs is whether they are homophobic.
If they are homophobic, why are you arguing with them? Don’t argue with them? Don’t mislead them, but just leave them be.
Every homophobe who gets Covid, is one homophobe less or unable able to act against Gays. It is just that simple. They may die, or they are sick. Even if they live they might have long Covid and so they will have medical bills, and they won’t be able to campaign against Gays.
If they won’t take Paxlovid, they will be sicker and less able to go after Gays during and after their bought with Covid.
At the very minimum while they are sick for four weeks they won’t be able to campaign against Gays.
Don’t step over the line and suggest misleading things. That would make us morally cupable.

Vaccines will eliminate one of the talking points of homophobic Christians.
The Christians are always talking about the high rate of Sexually Transmitted Diseases of Gays as if that is a valid reason to be against homosexuality.
The fact is that if you doing something more than others you likely to have increased risks. If you drive a car, you have much higher risk of car accidents, than a person who doesn’t have a care. People who are mountain climbers have a higher incidence of injuries from falling.
Basically, the Christians don’t get much sex anyways so of course they don’t get STDs.
Vaccines offer the opportunity of eliminating this homophobic talking point.
A lot of new vaccines are coming out that potentially will eliminate a lot of STDs as an issue.
This is the Moderna mRNA vaccine pipeline.

You can see that there is a phase 1 for mpox (formerly monkeypox) and zika which can be sexually transmitted. Both are in Phase 1.
HSV (Herpes) is in phase 2. HIV is in Phase 1 still. They are about to start Phase 2.
https://www.modernatx.com/en-US/research/product-pipeline
At this time if you get the meningitis vaccine, you are protected against gonorrhea to some extent.
Also, a gonorrhea vaccine has been fast tracked by the U.S. government.
At this time you can get a vaccine for everything except Herpes, HIV, and syphilis. There are online mRNA vaccine campaigns by Moderna for Herpes and HIV, but syphilis is neglected. This is one thing the so-called LGBTQXYZ leadership should be pushing for but aren’t.
This isn’t a Gay item, but I think you should know. Don’t die.
Distilled water is okay. I think AIDS patients know this already. Where I live AIDS patients are occasionally warned not to drink the water.
Just because something is safe to eat or drink doesn't mean it's safe to squirt deep inside your face, like your sinus cavities and eye sockets, researchers at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention would like to remind you.
In a study published Wednesday in Emerging Infectious Diseases, CDC researchers looked at 10 cases where people developed life-threatening amoeba infections after cleaning out their sinuses, often with tap water via neti pots and squirt bottles. Such infections are relatively rare, but the number of people at risk of them is perhaps much greater than one might expect.
We're in challenging times. Also fine art the 👌
