... would be for Tom to post a groovy pic of himself from the 60s in his far-out kaftan calling out all the straights.

That would be most awesome. It would also be lush, peng and totally sick.


You would freak out. It would be a bad trip for you.

Awesome, sure.

Germans in Lower Saxony to wear masks during sex Apr 19, 2020

Annotation 2020-04-19 214824

Source: German regions force citizens to wear masks following success of city trial by Jorg Luyken, Berlin, David Chazan, Paris, and James Badcock, Madrid.

It's unclear whether we should expect to see any pubic life on public transport. Germans can be quite libertarian, so who knows? Perhaps Mr Badcock could elaborate on that.

Born in the mid-70s... Apr 21, 2020

I should add I am not familiar with the expressions/terms used in the 60s and/or 70s even in my native language.
But I have done my homework and I have found English had an "arsenal" of slang terms used in those decades.
"Awesome! Rock on!"

I suppose it all depends where you choose to wear the mask.

Pubic versus public Apr 21, 2020

"Pubic life"?
News are riddled with spelling errors.
This one appears to be incidental rather than intentional.
