YES, TPB is going to be blocked.  It'll join about a dozen other sites that are bocked due to copyright issues. It's not the government that's doing it, but the courts.

@raphjd: hXXp://www.ontopmag.com/article.aspx?id=9121&MediaType=1&Category=24 Rudolf Brazda, Last Gay Nazi Death Camp Survivor, Dies At 98 BY ON TOP MAGAZINE STAFF PUBLISHED: AUGUST 04, 2011 Rudolf Brazda, the last known gay Nazi death camp survivor, died at 98 in France on Wednesday, the AFP reported. Brazda died at a hospital in Bantzenheim, France in his sleep, Philippe Couillet, a friend and associate of Brazda, told the European news service. At the age of 29, Brazda was sent to the Buchenwald concentration camp in August 1942. He remained in the camp until 1945, when the camp was liberated by allied troops. Being gay was a crime under Nazi Germany's laws, and tens of thousands of people were convicted and sent to concentration camps. Prisoners had to wear a downward-pointing pink triangle on their jackets that identified them as gay or lesbian. The pink triangle – which was originally intended as a badge of shame – has since been turned upside down and reclaimed as a symbol of gay pride. Brazda moved to Alsace after the war and lived there the remainder of his life. His partner of over 30 years, Edi, died in 2003. (A video interview with English subtitles is embedded in the right panel of this page.) In April, the French government awarded Brazda the Legion of Honor. He is expected to be buried next Monday in Mulhouse, France. New information says that Hitler had thousands of Jews and gays in his military. Interesting. Because they said he hated them. So do the Democrats say, Trump hates gays yet he employs lots of them. I think after watching Carter Page - he was definitely gay. Just my opinion. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7JYpT8OjLgo Carter Page seems Super Gay to me after watching this interview in 2019…

Agreed. There's a whole world of difference between pirating for your own use and pirating for profit. The odd thing is he is a Tea Party member and one of their platforms is special rights for businesses, including extremist anti piracy laws.

@raphjd: Last year, the Italian leader brushed off criticism, saying: “It’s better to be passionate about beautiful women than to be gay.” Wait a minute… Let's back this up a few steps here. What about if you're a woman? Is it then still better to be passionate about beautiful women than to lust over a hunk a hunk a studly man? I'm just saying... There's more than one way to intemperate such a statement.

As the article says, everything he's claiming is bullshit; ie reading the disclaimer. He's just using the lawsuit for get more attention for himself.

I still think there should be some separation of church and state.

i found the limerick reference kind of funny.  it also kind of reminds me of the guy in Jackass who drank horse semen.

Best wish to all these couples. :hug2:

Man! why can;t those people just go far far far away and never come back.  R.I.P Elizabeth Taylor.  :cry2:

ACK!! Two evil forces joining together. Throw DELL parts into the mix and you have Satan's computer from HELL!

Again things like this make me glad to live in Canada. I got married (unfortunately), and am in the process of contemplating walking down that road again as I think I've finally found THE one for me. As for the pension thing, that's something that's been a non-issue for anyone since the late 80's or early 90's. Benefits, insurance, etc. were all changed to state "spouse or domestic partner", which encompassed both unmarried heterosexual couples, as well as gay and lesbian couples the same perks as being married through a period of residing under the same roof for at least 1 year. Although there are certain drawbacks to Canada (like December - March), gay rights overall is one area where we're far more advanced than other countries.

I just saw on the news that later today, a UK court will rule on whether a mentally disabled woman should be sterilized after she gives birth in a couple of weeks.   There is no attempt to ban her from having sex. hXXp://www.allheadlinenews.com/articles/7023158562?British%20court%20mulls%20forced%20surgical%20sterility%20for%20disabled%20woman This is more proof that the UK is still very homophobic. EDIT:  The case has been adjourned until after she has the baby in May.

This is why I never google myself.
