Huh. Who woulda thunk it?

 The favored class are favored.  It is as it ever was.

Our public health authorities will do anything -- anything! -- if it saves one life.

Except tell a member of a noisy leftwing political constituency that they're going to have to give up a pastime they enjoy, like rioting during a pandemic or orgies during a pox pandemic that is easily spread by close contact, as occurs during sex.

When I was stuck in Lost Angeles, you could drive around and see billboards warning people to use protection or ask their partner if they had AIDS.  One thing that was never mentioned was STOP FUCKING ANONYMOUS MEN DURING RANDOM HOOKUPS.

Yeah.  Can't dare offend the Cult of the Sacred Orgasm, can you?

So here comes Monkeypox, and despite how hard the usual suspects are trying to stoke the fear and paranoia, the fact remains that the driver of Monkeypox are gay men.  Gay men who go to orgies and fuck dozens of other men.  Men that they don't know.  Because orgasms.

I had been watching the news on monkeypox but the general feelings on it really were and still are developing by the day. So I nor anyone else was especially worried, especially since there had been only two confirmed cases in my entire county, and this group was all locals. AND the host of that group was a good friend and a nurse, so I trusted their judgement in still having the event happen.

It was a great time, I think I came into sexual content with somewhere in the ballpark of 15-20 different men.

I have no words.

This fucking government shut down businesses and churches and social groups because of a virus that was lethal to a tiny fraction of the population, but they won't tell gay men to stop fucking anonymous people even though Monkeypox is far more lethal.

Sometimes, bad things happen to people because those people are fucking stupid and they deserve it.
