Not so Briefly: Gay Bar News

Precinct has officially resolved the lawsuit

From Precinct: After more than two years of dealing with this legal matter, we're incredibly relieved to finally say that it has been resolved on mutually agreeable terms... and we can start putting it behind us.

We're still going through the final invoices with our legal team, but we want to give a huge thank-you to our attorney, Jonathan Chan, and the entire team at CTK Law Group for helping us navigate all of this.

And honestly, we could not have made it through without our community. Your donations helped us keep going, but so did every person who showed up, brought friends, shared our posts, ordered a drink, danced with us, and reminded us why Precinct matters.

Once everything is finalized and we've squared up with our legal team, we'll be closing donations to this GoFundMe.

From everyone at Precinct, thank you for standing beside us and showing so much love to this weird, wonderful queer space. Love always wins. We appreciate you more than we can say, and we're incredibly grateful that we get to keep the party going.

OK see you tonight at Slutter Camp!!

What are the compromises?

Will there be a resolution?

Is your goal to have the perfect safe space where no one disagrees with you? Or is your goal to build a mass movement? Purity testing, taking a morally righteous, maximalist position; these are poisonous for community development. Poisonous for organizing - Hasan Piker

Briefly: Goose loses their golden egg!

The invite-only gay dating and lifestyle app Goose faced major criticism and a Wired investigation alleging it used fake, AI-generated male influencer profiles on Instagram to recruit users. The app also drew backlash over exclusivity standards, privacy concerns in its terms, and co-founder Derek Chadwick stepping down shortly after launch.

Topic:

San Diego Pride

Took the train to SD

Accommodations at a timeshare through work travel agent; understanding the quickest way to avoid their “concierge” whether it be an excuse or a hard no.

Festival is massive with 4 stages, kink area, and food/vendors

Do you ever feel like you wasted your life?

I'm 40 and just looking for advice based on others' experiences.

If you came out later in life, does it ever feel like you wasted your life being closeted?

I just came out(mostly to myself) so I'm still on the "gay high". I look back and think of all the things I missed out because of being closeted and worrying about offending others who didn't give a damn about me. All the young loves, the cute guys, the hot sex, if I would be in a LTR by now, etc.

What is your experience and how do you cope with it?

Thanks in advance.

Having sex on vacation with another consenting adult that does not involve an exchange of compensation is NOT considered “Sex Tourism.” Even when the travel’s sole purpose is to have sex.

Just realizing I'm gay

I'm 40 freaking years old and just realizing I'm gay. Came out to a select few. I know that sounds odd but it's true. I always wondered why I found women visually attractive but never sexually attractive. Intimacy with women (Dancing, kissing, sex, holding hands, etc) always felt weird in an off way.

Then it happened. I kissed a guy and felt this awesome nervous energy. Took it a step further and had sex. Even though I had major performance anxiety there was no problems getting and maintaining an erection. Erections with women were just hard enough for penetration and it took serious effort on my part to get off. Figured out I was a gay service top who loves to side.

There's just so much going through my head. My question is how did you meet your boyfriend? I'm looking for advice on how to meet guys. I'm not into random hookups and I'm an introverted loner. I'm very masculine appearing but my nature is kinda feminine. By that I mean I'm a romantic who would love to spoil a man. Any introverts with advice?

Thanks.

Advice column:

Christian

May I ask your input in this so 1 know if it's just my gay delusion ass wanting it to be real or if the other guy is doing it on purpose.

So I've had 3 separate encounters now where I've seen this hot Latino and his hung softie. First time it was like damn and trying to not stare. Second time it almost seemed intentional with how long he would dry him and even tugged on it a couple times after we both showered and happen to come out at the same time. Third time today, he was in the locker room after showering and drying himself as I walk in. I do my bicep flex post workout and I see he's still drying himself. There's one other dude so I'm trying to not look as I open my locker and then glance over to him still drying but focus on dick. Then is full in nude after the other guy leaves and I can't help but look at his dark tan dick. While he's throwing on underwear, he does take his time and even lingers a little before moving his dick inside.

Which I found interesting cause the second encounter he turned around to throw on his underwear. After that he gets dressed after throwing on some coconut body lotion. Same thing happened again. He was facing my direction as he lotioned his dick whereas last time he turned around to do so.

So I'm like is he doing it in on purpose or am I just delusional

Dear Handbasket After Dark,

May I call you Handbasket?

Long time listener, first time writer here requesting advice from fellow homos.

About 6 months ago I moved to Boston from California to move in with my partner. While I’m thankful to have his ring of friends to hang out with at any time in this new city, I’m still struggling to find my own friends and community out here. What would be your best advice in trying to find friends? The gay scene out here isn’t as…dare I say robust as it was back in California and the weather definitely doesn’t help.

With love and thirst for Carlos’ chest,

Fernando.

Advice column: From Anonymous—

“My not boyfriend is becoming more lovey dovey...is that good or bad

“A situationship where the other person has always fought the idea of being in an actual relationship has recently become more lovey dovey and I'm wondering if that's good or bad.

Like does this mean they're becoming increasingly more caring so when they cut me off it hurts less, or is it something where they're finally putting down their walls and accepting that this is maybe something they want.

“We been going at it for a few years and along the way have checked in how their feeling and doing but usually when I check in they would get a little defensive and straight up say they're still not looking for a relationship...when all 1 was doing was making sure they were okay.

We've always done boyfriend level things but just never labeled it.”
