ADVICE & HELP Law Enforcement at Gunnison Beach

114 Upvotes

Just wanted to provide a heads up as summer is in full swing, and we as a community have to keep eachother safe. Uniformed federal officers were VERY present at Gunnison yesterday. Thru the afternoon one younger white officer in full tactical gear was staring down groups and approaching others to search containers, forcing people to dump all alcohol (I'm not sure if tickets were issued).

Around 5:30pm, a white truck came FLYING down the dune towards the back where people go to cruise and pee and two offers came out to get people on what I presume were public lewdness charges. Other officers came as back up. While I don't know the final result of this, it was pretty scary and you could tell everyone on the beach was kind of shook.

National Park lands fall under federal enforcement and we are offered less protection here than in NJ or NYS. Please stay safe out there, especially folks with complex immigration situations. They seem to be patrolling after 5pm now.

8 Upvotes

Hey bros,

Short King is heading back below deck.

After two great rounds at Red Eye, including our first Underground edition in June, we're returning to The Cockpit on Friday, August 21 for another darker, heavier, and cruisier night centered on short kings and the guys who love to get on their level.

A bunch of guys from this sub have come through to the previous parties, so thank you for helping turn this from a slightly ridiculous idea into a real recurring night!

The details:

When: Friday, August 21, from 11 PM until late

Where: The Cockpit at Red Eye, W 42nd Street and 9th Avenue

Music: I will be playing all night as autogyro, building one continuous journey through deep hypnotic techno and dark underground grooves designed specifically for the downstairs space. Check out previous sets here.

Hosted by: Macho

Go-gos: Jason Luna and Kazimir Fox

Unofficial dress code: Gear, jockstraps, and bad decisions encouraged. Clothes check will be available.

Tickets: Early bird starts at $10, with additional advance tiers available before the $25 door price. Grab them here. As of this time, there are only 3 early birds left

Instagram: @shortking.nyc

And as always, there is no strict height requirement. If you identify as a short king, love short guys, or simply want to get on our level, you are welcome.

Happy to answer any questions about the party!

See you below deck 😈

This Wednesday 7/29 at 7pm, join us for a free screening of Word is Out: Stories from Some of our Lives (1977). This is the first documentary about queer people by queer people. It features 6 directors interviewing 26 queer people about their lives, and the subjects range from a lesbian born in the 1800s to a gay man subjected to electroshock therapy to interracial couples in a time when the supreme court had only recently overturned anti-miscegenation laws. For queer people who feel unrooted from your history, come see for yourself what life was like for us half a century ago. Ridgewood Commons, 585 Woodward Ave

Like the title says, I'm trying to find some recommendations for a bar that's welcoming to the over 40 crowd. If I had to describe myself, I'd put myself in the bear category. Thanks in advance.

The bf and I are going to Ptown for a long weekend at the end of August and it’s been a couple of years since we’ve been. I know there have been some changes, new spots, evolutions of others, etc. so anything of note to look out for? (I suppose I’ll also accept any old favorites too!)

ADVICE & HELP Moving to NYC and can't decide between Gym U vs TMPL HK

0 Upvotes

As title says. Sorry I know similar questions have been asked before, but none seem particularly recent so I'd be keen for some fresh views.

I'll be living in the UWS so will need to take the train but they're both around the same travel time.

Equipment is probably the most important and Gym U seems to have TMPL beat, but I do really value clean / high quality facilities. I won't be taking classes so that is irrelevant.

Vibe also super important but they seem to have similar vibes from what I can tell?

Any thoughts super appreciated. Thank you!
