Plot: Gaston see’s something he likes as your muse changes
Connections: Friend, stranger, taboo

Gaston couldn’t help but lick his lips as the other man’s torso came into view from underneath his shirt as he was changing. “now that is a much better look” he half joked as he sat back making sure the other was reminded of him being there.

Open to: males
Isaiah looked at the heavy-duty handcuffs that were dangling from the other male’s finger. His eyes went wide in embarrassment. How had he forget to pack those damn things away? “I swear those aren’t mine.” Well, technically, they weren’t as they belonged to the station. Isaiah made a mental note to bring them back to work when he returned in the morning. “Why are you looking at me like that?”

Setting out of the bed’s edge, and from the other’s inside with the thread of cumming, Jon stepped back and saw the other man standing on his knees crawling towards him with trembling legs. His hand stroke his cock’s head at a high pace as he groaned in desperate need of release after so many times edging himself to last longer ─ kryptonian downside meant being more sensitive but also a brightside... a strong sphinter ─, he leaned back and grabbed the man by the head as he climbed half way up the bed so he was standing against their head. The grip on hair brought them back and their desperation for him came more visible to him as their jaw shook in hunger. Soon, white streaks were shot against cheeks and face, splattering over the canvas that was made out of it as he groaned louder and louder. “Fuck,” he added as he squeezed what he thought was the last drop.
With the very same hold over the other’s hair, he pushed them down against the bed once more, carefully, but still manhandling them, and spun them around so their ass was back up. His cock was then pushed into the loosened hole, “where it belongs,” he added in a low whisper with a loud sigh of relief. and pushed himself in until he was fully sheathed by him resting his head on the other’s shoulder. “My father won’t be happy at all,” he added, “so thank you for the excuse.”

Plot: Your muse is some sort of supernatural who has been captured and enslaved to be in the circus with the rest of them, Connor is a sorcerer who unfortunately found himself in the same boat as your muse. 
Tumblr media
“Are you hurt?” Connor called out to the other man from across the yard, and in a blink he was beside the other kneeling next to him, a hand extended. “Don’t be frightened. Well no I mean it is ok to be frightened. But I won’t hurt you.” he was sure the stranger would be lost as to what was going on and where he was, and Connor had to admit this man was beautiful, he could see why the Ringmaster took him. 
“My name is Connor. I am ah- call me the welcome wagon? You’re safe...ish. You were taken by a powerful sorcerer, far more powerful than I am. And he expects you to be a part of his travelling circus. All of us are...well. Trapped here. But we are nice. I promise.”

Connections: Best friend who she's in love with,ex,ex fwb anyone who knows hee really well!
She knew this was a stupid idea pounding on the others door at 4 am and hoping that their spouse to be wasn't there. She felt out of her mind as it was what ten hours before the other was actually getting married. Like real married not fithgrade married. Lilly couldn't get them off of her mind and had something she desbitaly needed to get off of her chest. She was in love with them always had been and she hated the fact that it took the other getting engaged. The girl didn't even know how the other would react which made it feel even stupider to be here now.Fuck was she actually crying right now? The thought of not at least telling them was tearing her heart apart it seemed.She was just about to walk away when the door opened. She figured maybe they were sleeping elsewhere and it wasn't meant to be. Once that door opened her heart race and she became nervous which was a first for her.
"Don't do it! Don't get married!" She said it so quickly she wasn't even sure she had at all but the look on the others gave said that she in fact did.

CUTE PLOT IDEA ALERT!!
Okay so I had a dream with this plot a few nights ago and I just thought it was THE CUTEST damn thing EVER mk
So like, this guy had gotten in an accident and some glass shards had pierced his eyes and caused him to go blind. He hates life at first, struggling with not being able to see anything or anyone. It isn't until he goes to college and meets a girl, who for the first time since the accident, makes him start to believe in living life again. For the first time since going blind, he smiles, and laughs.
He immediately falls for this girl, and in time she falls for him too, and they begin to date. He has no idea what she looks like, besides some basic descriptions, yet to him she is the most beautiful girl in the world and he couldn't see himself living without her. Other girls talk shit about his girlfriend, about how she's not really that pretty and he could do so much better, but he doesn't listen to any of them. This girl is his angel, his saving grace. She pulled him out of the darkness of depression and no one would ever be able to make him as happy as his girlfriend does.
She worries that one day he will give in to the pressure and cheat on her, but he reassures her every day that she's the only one for him. No matter what she looked like, or what the other girls looked like, he was in love with her, and only her.
Years pass, and months shy of their 3 year anniversary, he decides to undergo a groundbreaking surgery that has a very high chance of giving him his sight again. His girlfriend is there by his side after the surgery and once the doctors remove the pads covering his eyes, he slowly opens them, and for the first time in 4 years, he can see again. And the very first thing he sees -- his girlfriend's face.
Needless to say there is A LOT of emotion in this plot, A LOT of angst and romance and I'm fuckin' living for it. (Also he proposed to her in his hospital after they have a big ass cry because omg my angel is the most gorgeous woman I've ever seen plz marry me 😍)
So like... Like this post if you wanna do this thing with me. (Tbh we can turn this into m/m or f/f if you'd rather but if I could have at least one or two where it's m/f 😍😍😍😍😍 just...yes plz ❤️)

         “Just - wait. Hold on a second alright? I know it’s around here som-” the words quickly die on his lips when he frantically starts rummaging through all of his pockets. His eyebrows pinch together with mock frustration before he slips a hand into one of the side pockets of his hoodie to quickly conceal his hand. Seconds later, the thief’s fingers are curling into a fist prior to a single digit slowly raising to ultimately flip the person off when it comes out from within his jacket and then pretends to let it fly away. “Awe no, there it freaking goes! My last fuck to give.” Expression turning into a comical look of utter dismay, he tilts his head to the side at the other and let’s a huge smirk gradually spread across his face.

OOC Rant: What The Fuck?
Do you mean to tell me that after all this December 17th Drama Bullshit that I’m still getting activity on my feed from NSFW Blogs that are most likely Spam blogs?!
Did staff literally just try to put a bandaid over the problem?
Today--Just TODAY I have blocked 3 Gay Male NSFW Blogs from following or for showing up on my activity for liking OOC posts & reblogging Askbox Memes.
My Dude..I know you have zero interest in Winter Stater Sentences. Stop reblogging my shit. Stop liking photos of me with my one-year-old niece. I am never going to open your fucking shitty blog. GET OFF MY FEED.
So...let me get this straight Promos aren’t allowed anymore & your supposedly getting rid of NSFW Gifs & pictures but somehow I’m still getting notification from NSFW Blogs???
Right.
Nice work, Tumblr. Sincerely. -_-
Tumblr sure is a safer environment now. 
Seriously, though. I will never look at a blog that is clearly pure NSFW Content. That not what I’m here for. Any blog or bot that follows me, reblogs my shit or likes a post that I made will just get blocked. It is the most pathetic thing.
And liking a photo of me in my PJ’s holding my infant Niece just because you think that I’ll give you the time of day for clicking the heart button? Shame on you. You filthy pig.

Comic cons, the weirdest place to find a hook up, one would say. And yet, not so much for Derek. He had gone attired with a blue power ranger suit, missing the helmet as he didn’t care for it, and exposing his muscular body through a tight rendering fabric that left not much to the imagination. And even in that case, he was not the most exposed. He had found a guy, one who was gathering all the picture taking attention, people posing with him, next to him, or simply asking him to take pictures. Quite the nice Spiderman to lay his eyes on, too, covered from head to toe, there was no more than paint, a pair of boots, a mask, and what seemed to be waist covering fabric. The rest, was the other’s body left to anyone’s eyes. And would no one care to check, or double check should be said, it would be unnoticed that it was no more than a cock protector painted through and stuck ot the skin with the right adhesives.  Would someone not have Derek’s talents, it would have gone unnoticed all the care that he had put into it. And thus, conquered by the bravery, he had spoken him up to vanish together somewhere private. 
Lost down on his knees, Derek had put down the cock covering tool, and the mask, leaving him to see the skin on the other’s face and waist only, completely shaven and oh so wonderfully so. His lips, with cheeks buried between cheeks, were tasting the flavor of paint that was not meant to be edible, making him taking all the effort that he had put on, and grabbing a tissue, removed the underlying blue colouring from the rims and surroundings. “This is commitment. And something I envy whoever helped you with this body paint,” he teased, looking up at his face before his tongue lashed out once more a teasing lick, and beard scratched the sides of tht muscular ass.

•🏥💉A post continued of my other post I posted earlier. Here’s a happy picture of me, but I am not happy right now...My arm hurts with the IV also let it be known that I had a few of the nicest people who treated/treat me nicely while I am still being hospitalized at Renown for Physical medical problems for the 7th day since January 8th. Every time I don’t have a family member with me, some of the Renown staff have treated me like shit because they tend to take advantage of me and feel that I am not important and do not give me any dignity. There are several people. •
Please note that a guy who works at Renown named Carlos was treating me unfairly and please know that it is very disrespectful to talk in any patients’ room at the hospital in a different language. •
Carlos on 7th floor and a housekeeper were in my room in the hospital were yelling loudly across my room in Spanish and were laughing very loudly. I told please do not talk in a different language in MY room if you want to talk a different language please step out of my room. Carlos’s response was “This is America, Spanish is my language, and I could speak anything I want” Carlos was making it sound like I’m racist but little did he know that in any healthcare field you’re not supposed to talk in a different language in any patient’s ROOM because that is very disrespectful. You could talk any language in the hallway but do not talk in a different language in any patients’ room. I am the patient and I know my rights. A Registered Nurse came and said “Mina, you need stop being mean” I told I was never mean and was shocked that the RN was on his side. I was never mean to anyone EVER. •
Seriously?! WTF! I made it clear that I am not racist and that he could speak any language out in the hall but not in my room. Carlos was trying to make it sound like I’m racist. To let you all know all these incidences that have happened is when I didn’t have visitors with me so they try to take advantage of me so many times. That’s why I always have to have an older family member or an older friend with me so they don’t take advantage. When my dad came and finally visited me, Carlos saw and started pretending to be nice to me and gave me some gum. He didn’t think I had family/friends before! I’m a RENO NATIVE by the way. Stop treating me like I’m an out-of-stater/ foreigner! Grr stupid Trump presidency, you ruined America too much. 😡
Another person who works at Renown a lady who is a Phlebotomist named Lian came to my room and wanted to draw my blood. She grabbed my arm and I told her my arm was very sore and please be careful. And Lian the phlebotomist’s response was “I don’t see any bruises” I was appalled & terrified when she said that because I know I have some bruises that showed but my whole arm was sore and some of the bruises did not show up. I know what I feel. Do not underestimate me. I knew how incompetent SOME people are who work at Renown. HOW DARE She say that to me trying to make it sound like I was making up my pain but really I was in much physical pain. •
I knew I had the right to refuse some of the medications they gave to me but I let them know I couldn’t have one of the medications because it gave me a rash and bad side effects. Roxanne the Registered Nurse on 7th floor telemetry was giving me the medications and I refused 1 of the medications and I know I have the right to refuse. Roxanne yelled at me in a really loud tone trying to make it sound like I should take it and trying to manipulate me into taking medication that could affect my health- she yelled at me & knew that she has to do more work to chart that I refused medication. Roxanne the lady with dark short hair was being very inappropriate & I had a witness with me named Gar...ln. Seriously, why would this lady want to be a nurse if she was going to treat any patient like shit. Don’t take your anger out on your patients! Roxanne the Registered Nurse should NEVER be a nurse. Anyone who treats a patient like that should be fired! Obvious discrimination!
Some of the coworkers was making up stuff and trying to make it sound like I was a crazy person but realistically these particular workers were trying to provoke me into being angry and ThEY were the main problems not me. When I didn’t have any visitors at the moment. (I had family visitors everyday but at different times).•
I knew that I needed to rest that day to feel better physically because of my kidneys, and other PHYSICAL health problems, but I told them if i could shut the door because the Registered Nurse before the shift was named Denise I told her everything and she said I could shut the door shut fully and the Registered Nurse named Roxanne again barged in my room and yelled at me that I needed to keep the door opened and that it doesn’t matter if I would sleep or not.
I explained to Roxanne the RN that I need to sleep but her coworkers in the hallway were being too loud & obviously they were being idiots. And Roxanne yelled in a loud angry tone at me that she didn’t care that I needed to sleep but needed to open my door. I did not get my privacy or my dignity. How UNPROFESSIONAL is Roxanne the Registered Nurse on floor 7 and Seriously HOW RUDE!😡.
How in the hell does a staff not get simple messages across to people. How unprofessional are SOME of these workers at Renown?! Seriously are you f*cken kidding me. You guys are the rudest staff in Reno and that’s just really sad and embarrassing that some of these workers work at Renown.•
I need to sue someone who put me on this hold and I was always mentally stable. They were trying to make it seem like I was mentally unstable because I reported a few people at Renown in the past in 2017 when I was working at Renown (nonpaid or paid) for discrimination. Renown did not taking me seriously and decided to let me leave. So some people at Renown faked it and said I was mentally unstable & that is NOT true at all. I fainted and was unconscious until day 2 or 3 so they mistakenly assumed I was a confused person. •
Some of the coworkers I had in the past were trying to make it sound like I was crazy just to get back at me for reporting them in 2017 for discrimination. I am mentally STABLE and whoever put that on there needs to be sued! I’ve had enough! This unfair treatment needs to stop! They were trying to provoke me into making me angry and doing something crazy but realistically these people who work at Renown need to be fired. They are not Professional!😡 I’ve been tortured enough.
There were also a number of times on the 7th floor of Renown Tahoe Tower who need to be fired because it’s making Renown sound like shit.
I received my Certified Nursing Assistant License in 2014 and also did my clinicals at Renown for my Phlebotomy class and received my Phlebotomy License in 2015. I got 2 college degrees with a Bachelors in Community Health Sciences in Public Health. I came to the recruitment Human Resources at Renown in 2016 when I graduated from UNR in May 2016.
I spoke to Kristen Bishop one of the supervisors of phlebotomy and Lab Assistant job in 2016. And she judged me for how I looked and she pretended to look through my resume and KRISTEN BISHOP said she “Would rather hire someone who has worked at Walmart than hire me!” HOW freaking INSULTING!😡That was in 2016 of Summer and I still remember. Grrr.
Even though I had 3 years of hospital experiences beginning of 2012 by just hospital volunteering, with my clinical, 2 extra hospitals I did for UNR internships I already completed before showing Kristen Bishop. I knew where every room was at the hospital & were way professional than SOME of these InCOMPETENT workers at Renown. Trust me I am not jealous of some rude, insulting incompetent people. Me Almost having 7 years of hospital experiences paid or unpaid, Kristen Bishop insulted me & made me cry for weeks in 2016 because no one has said that to me to my face before. It was clear racial & age discrimination.
My accomplishments I have completed & put on my resume are all 100% true 💯. I would never makeup lies on my resume because I’m not fake like some people! I just literally just turned 26 in November & before I was 21 I have always been an overachiever even in high school & down to elementary school, middles school I’ve always been an overachiever & I already completed 2 of my medical licenses & did extras with 2 college degrees including my Bachelors Degree in something else.
You guys need to know that I have worked hard for accomplishments and they’re all true & real accomplishments. I am not trying to show off and not intentionally trying to make people jealous or feel bad, but that’s one of the reasons why I’m so proud of my accomplishments & they are so important to me but some bullsh*t hospitals thought I was making up my resume & some untrue rumors got spread around, catfished my facebook pretending to be me in 2017, sending inapropriate messages but truly I have completed all that I have said on my resume. Swear to GOD! Whoever is making up lies about me; you guys need to stop. I have been going through hell for years & have been hiding that to most people. You guys need to stop spreading lies. Discrimination is a big issue & I deserve way better!
The people have treated me like sh*t at Renown & some people need to be fired or make it known that some of the current/past co-workers at Renown are just so embarrassing because some of them are so INCOMPETENT! Karma will get back at you; and I don’t have to do anything because GOD is my witness; and anyone who treats people unfairly needs to be punished where I have done nothing other than being Asian. I’m still proud to be Asian American & born & raised in Reno & Sparks, Nevada. Always be proud of what ethnicity/race you are. I will never judge you of your race or how different you are & I am not racist- I will love you for who you are, gay, straight bi (even-though I’m straight) I will never judge you unlike SOME people who work at RENOWN & other people who has judged me.
I have been wrongfully put on hold and was told I need a sitter simply because some people I reported at Renown in 2017 wanted to retalliate at me making it seem like I was crazy psych person but realistically I AM NOT and those people need to be sued!! 😡 I have been tortured enough having no sharps not even forks in my meals. They need to be sued because they wrongfully put me on there on purpose. I’m now allowed to have jewlery now with my phone a few days ago. But whoever did this, YOU need to be punished!😡
The workers at Renown were trying to make it seem like I was mentally unstable and they were trying to provoke me into doing something crazy by making me angry on purpose. I need to be discharged soon. And if not, someone needs to help me sue & file a lawsuit! Someone please help me! 😭. •
Realistically the one’s treating me like shit are the actual ones who need help-NOT Me. I have been in physical pain & had physical health problems but they are mistakenly treating me like I’m a psych patient. Someone please help me sue! •
I’m obviously mentally STABLE & have always been mentally stable, always have and will love myself and never want to harm others, but the messages on the chart need to get across to the whole facility. Why are none of the updated reports filed in the chart in time?! seriously?! So UNpROFESSIONAL!! How dare you put me on this hold and torture me with needles poking me a dozen times and insulting remarks coming out of your mouths. Seriously so UNPROFESSIONAL. •
They were trying to make it sound like I’m an idiot but am obviously not-SOME of the people treating me like sh*t at Renown are the biggest idiots! How pathetic are they?! Seriously?! You guys are obviously jealous, racist, and ignorant, but you guys need to stop & you guys have been ruining my healthcare career where I have done NOTHING wrong. We need to sue!! •
Also 2 days ago, Amber a CNA ripped the EKG wires harshly off my body in a harsh way eventhough I still have heart palpitations. My family was not there to witness this. •
And for that I was getting way underpaid than some of my Caucasian friends who had way less experiences than me & who didn't have a college degrees; no offense to anyone- don’t take it personally but I have always been an overachiever I deserve way more than I was offered. I’m not really a person who likes to complain, but this has been making me very upset... but somewhere else in healthcare field hopefully in different hospital longterm or short-term plans I was meant for bigger things in healthcare than to be stuck in a sh*thole place treating me like crap all the time when I need is to get more respect & not to treat me unfairly.•
I loved the other hospitals I worked in & appreciated the coworkers who treated me nicely but racist coworkers is what made me left I reported it in the past & they did not take me seriously & some people need to be sued, but I have a life instead I’m physically still kind of sick and stuck & Renown doing useless things & focusing how to get rid of our one racist neighbor family disturbing us who we - my Family lived & owned same house for almost 30 years never had a problem with neighbors until 2017. You guys need to stop. You guys need to spread kindness because you don’t know what I and others have been through. •
What ever lies you’re spreading & insulting remarks you make does not make you look better. I never have been arrested before and still have not been arrested because I have done nothing wrong whoever was making that up- you truly need a life & stop ruining others. NONE of my family members have any criminal records. You need to stop with your racism & hate because it is really affecting me & my career that I have physically & mentally worked hard for & some people to be honest they have the easy way out- well lucky you!! I’ve worked harder than most people my age when I was younger so you guys need to stop lying about me. Been going through a lot of hell through the years- so simply shut your mouth & stop making stuff up about me because deep down some of you are jealous. You people hurting others with words will not make you look better than anyone & oh obviously you guys who did this need a life, because apparently you almost ruined a-lot of mine. Are you happy now?! I’m still staying positive but got better things to do longterm/short-term goals.•
Just get me out of Renown! Hopefully get discharged soon-if not, someone needs to get sued soon because I know my rights and they have been treating me inappropriately. I’m almost going crazy staying here because some of the staff are super rude. A few of the staff are super nice & I really appreciate it. I love my life & I’m not going to let jealous haters ruin it. I wouldn’t want to wish any harm on anyone so please prayers or help to me soon. Still trying to stay positive even when a lot of people are really sh*tty to me in life (like Roxanne the Registered Nurse on Renown Tahoe Tower floor 7) you guys need to file her. I’ve had enough of this & I deserve WAY better. Hopes & prayers or some help to me soon.💕

“I, uhm...” Barging into the room, Remus froze when he locked eyes with his companion. “The voices. They’re uhm. They... I...” He shifted on the spot, his hands fiddling with a loose thread that dangled from his shirt. “I don’t want to be alone tonight.
“Can I stay here with you?”

via Politics – FiveThirtyEight
In 45 states, the advent of September means it’s time to focus on the general election. But there are still a few primaries left to be resolved — most notably in Massachusetts, where progressives and the Democratic Party establishment are waging their final war of 2020. And because the Bay State — and all nine of its congressional districts — are solidly blue, today’s elections will essentially decide its next members of Congress.
Like many Democratic primaries this year, the Massachusetts U.S. Senate race pits an incumbent who has served in Congress for decades against an insurgent arguing it’s time for a new generation of leadership. But that’s about where the comparison ends. The young upstart is Rep. Joe Kennedy III, scion of perhaps the most establishment family in politics. (Among his great-uncles were President John F. Kennedy and Sen. Ted Kennedy, who died in 2009.) And incumbent Sen. Ed Markey, despite his 44-year tenure in Congress, is a steadfast progressive who co-wrote the Green New Deal with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
As such, Markey has successfully claimed the left lane of the contest for himself: Ocasio-Cortez, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, Our Revolution and the Sunrise Movement have all endorsed him. Meanwhile, Kennedy’s endorsers include establishment heavyweights such as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. But in reality, the two candidates largely share the same progressive policy views and have voted similarly in Congress.
So without a clear ideological contrast, Kennedy has arguably struggled to articulate why he feels that Markey doesn’t deserve another term. Long-standing grumblings that Markey doesn’t spend enough time in Massachusetts have failed to stick to the incumbent, leaving Kennedy open to attacks that he is running only because of his family’s privilege, which Markey has contrasted with his own working-class upbringing.
However, despite the vitriol that has come to characterize the campaign, most Bay Staters see the race as a choice between two good Democrats. According to a Suffolk University poll from last week, 71 percent of likely Democratic primary voters had a favorable opinion of Markey, and 63 percent had a favorable opinion of Kennedy. That said, the last four head-to-head polls of the race show Markey with an average lead of 10 percentage points. That’s a pretty big shift from earlier this year, when Kennedy was leading in most polls.
Markey has taken the lead
Polls of the Democratic primary for U.S. Senate in Massachusetts conducted so far in 2020
Dates Pollster Markey Kennedy Margin 8/25-27 Emerson College 56% 44% +12 8/24-25 Data for Progress 50 43 +7 8/23-25 Suffolk University 51 41 +10 8/13-21 UMass Lowell 52 40 +12 8/12-16 SurveyUSA 44 42 +2 7/31-8/7 UMass Amherst 51 36 +15 7/29-30 JMC Analytics 44 41 +3 5/5-6 Emerson College 42 58 +16 4/27-5/1 UMass Lowell 42 44 +2 2/26-28 Suffolk University 36 42 +6 2/18-24 UMass Amherst 43 40 +3 2/12-19 UMass Lowell 34 35 +1
Includes respondents who leaned toward one candidate or the other.
Source: Polls
A lot of that early lead was probably name recognition, though, as Markey was not terribly well known for an incumbent — and Kennedy had already aired millions of dollars’ worth of TV ads before Markey first went on the air in late July. But Markey’s recent spending blitz appears to have shored up his support, especially among younger and more college-educated voters. However, Kennedy has still outspent Markey $10.2 million to $7.1 million since Oct. 1, 2019 (about a week after he entered the race),1 although the two candidates have received roughly the same amount of help (around $4 million) from outside groups.
But no matter what happens today, history will be made. It will be the first time either a sitting U.S. senator or a Kennedy has lost a contested primary in Massachusetts.
Turning to the House races, the Democratic primary in Western Massachusetts’s 1st Congressional District started out as another establishment-versus-insurgent fight between Rep. Richard Neal, a 16-term incumbent who chairs the Ways and Means Committee, and Holyoke Mayor Alex Morse, a 31-year-old progressive. But the race took a dramatic turn when Morse, who is gay, was accused of sexual misconduct — even more scandalous given the allegations appeared to be part of a political hit job.
On Aug. 7, the College Democrats of Massachusetts alleged that Morse had inappropriate sexual relations with students as a candidate and, before that, as an adjunct instructor at UMass Amherst. Morse denied ever having a “non-consensual sexual encounter” or violating UMass policies, but admitted that he’d had consensual relationships with students at area universities and apologized for making some students feel uncomfortable. But things took a turn on Aug. 12 when left-leaning outlet The Intercept reported that leaders of the College Democrats had conspired to create a sex scandal and sink Morse’s campaign to win favor with Neal. For his part, Neal’s campaign denied any involvement, and the College Democrats’ president claimed they had acted in good faith. The revelations, however, cast serious doubts on the allegations against Morse. Further reporting from The Intercept also suggests that the state Democratic Party may have been involved in the effort to spread the allegations, and that the party’s executive director told leaders of the College Democrats to delete communication records.
Overall, the race appears to be quite close. In the aftermath of The Intercept’s initial story, Morse’s campaign enjoyed a surge in fundraising, and a mid-August internal poll from Morse’s campaign found Neal ahead by only 5 points, 46 percent to 41 percent. Still, a late-August survey from RABA Research/Jewish Insider found Neal up 49 percent to 40 percent, and the longtime incumbent holds a huge edge in fundraising. As of Aug. 12, Neal had already spent more than four times as much as Morse ($4.3 million versus $1.0 million) and had nine times as much in the bank for the final weeks of the primary (nearly $2.8 million to nearly $297,000). Outside groups have also spent almost $1.9 million supporting Neal or attacking Morse, more than the $1.5 million boosting Morse or slamming Neal. Neal also got an unusual endorsement from Republican Gov. Charlie Baker. In most states, such cross-party support might well hurt Neal, but an August survey of the Democratic primary electorate from UMass Lowell found that 89 percent (!) approved of Baker’s performance as governor.
Another wide-open race can be found in Kennedy’s old 4th Congressional District, which stretches from wealthy Boston suburbs to working-class cities along the Rhode Island border. Seven Democrats are running here, five of whom have raised more than $1 million.
Alan Khazei, the co-founder of City Year, probably entered the campaign as the best-known candidate thanks to two past U.S. Senate runs (he lost but captured a lot of grassroots energy). And he remains the race’s top fundraiser ($1.8 million). But early polls more consistently showed Newton City Councilor Becky Grossman, the daughter-in-law of former Democratic National Committee Chair Steve Grossman, with the most support. Fellow Newton City Councilor Jake Auchincloss, a Marine veteran endorsed by The Boston Globe, has also emerged as a front-runner: He has spent more than any candidate ($1.4 million), and a super PAC partially funded by his parents has chipped in another $532,620. But he has also had to apologize for some offensive comments he has made over the years. A super PAC affiliated with Emily’s List has also spent $652,846 to attack Auchincloss and Khazei, although the women’s group has not chosen a favorite among the four women in the race.
In addition, former Wall Street regulator Ihssane Leckey has also parlayed her personal fortune (she has loaned $1 million to her own campaign) to become a factor in the race: According to her campaign’s internal polling, she gained 8 points in the race from June to August. But now the momentum might be with former Brookline Select Board member Jesse Mermell. In August, 4th District candidates Dave Cavell and Chris Zannetos both dropped out2 and endorsed Mermell — Cavell doing so with the explicit goal of consolidating the progressive vote against Auchincloss. The most recent poll of the race, from RABA Research/Jewish Insider, showed Auchincloss and Mermell as the two leading candidates.
Rounding out the field, epidemiologist Natalia Linos significantly trails the others in fundraising but was part of a six-way virtual tie for first place in a mid-August Data for Progress poll. Only a win by attorney Ben Sigel, who is last among the remaining candidates in both polls and fundraising, would be a true upset.
The last primary we’re watching is the 8th Congressional District, where Democratic Rep. Stephen Lynch faces a progressive challenge from physician Robbie Goldstein. Lynch has long had a reputation for being a moderate, especially because of his more conservative stance on abortion rights. And with the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, Goldstein’s background as an infectious-disease expert could attract support, too. Understandably, Goldstein has focused on health care, backing a single-payer system and trying to contrast himself with Lynch, who actually voted against the Affordable Care Act in 2010. However, the reason Lynch voted against the ACA is because he said the legislation didn’t go far enough to rein in insurance companies.
So far, though, Goldstein has outraised Lynch in the past two filing periods, bringing in about $340,000 to Lynch’s $52,000 in that time. Although Lynch has a much larger war chest because of previous fundraising — he had about $1.5 million cash on hand compared with Goldstein’s $225,000 as of Aug. 12 — he may not be using that much of it. Politico reported last week that Lynch had made only very small television and digital ad buys, and Goldstein has spent more on advertising than Lynch so far this year. A poll released in early August by Goldstein’s campaign found Lynch ahead by only 7 points, 39 percent to 32 percent, so the challenger might have a shot at an upset.
Nonetheless, one of Lynch’s online ads says he “has never forgotten where he came from,” and given his background as an ironworker-turned-lawyer and Irish Catholic, if he wins handily today that might help explain why. Lynch’s profile fits the traditional culture of the area he represents, and in his nearly two decades in the House, he’s seen off every primary challenge with ease. The 8th District takes in South Boston, a historically working-class and Irish American community. Although the area has been changing in recent years, 29 percent of the district’s population still claims Irish ancestry, more than any other district in the country.
There’s certainly plenty of electoral excitement in Massachusetts today, and as we’ve discussed, some surprises could be in store. We’ll be following the ins and outs of each contest tonight on Twitter, so please follow along!

Leaving his room in order to do some cleaning, and after taking a quick shower, Charles went room after room, thinking himself alone, he hadn’t bothered on dressing so he left his skin dry by itself as he walked by. Stopping on his son’s bedroom, having left it for thel ast, and opening the door, he was lightly surprised by the bulge on the bed. He thought Miles out to college, so course, as he walked by the side and pulled from the sheets to scold him, he surprised himself seeing a very sleepy different person. “Did Miles let you stay in without asking me permission, Boy?” He asked, not bothering on covering himself.

arriving home from cheerleading practice, peyton was not in the best of moods. his uniform had broken and there was no other guy able to lend him anything to wear. thus as he arrived him, and giving thanks to being able to beam away in time  after reaching some distance, he removed the jacket that he was using to cover his lack of shorts. under which he was wearing a pair of laced panties with a nice and beautiful fall. sure, it was pretty, but it was not something he’d wear with normalcy. in fact, heh ad judged his friend for being the only spare pair of underwear she carried. a normal panty? he wouldn’t mind. but that? come on, he had shown his dick and more to his friend even without wanting to. not just becaue he had had to change in front of her, which wasn’t a problem, but because the clothing itself embraced his body so tightly it let everything to sight. and the fact that he had shaved not too long ago didn’t help at all. looking at himself in the frat entrance’s mirror, he gave a loud sigh, before he he held the jacket up and went upstairs to his dorm room. and laying down on his bed, he reached up for one of his psychology books, did he change? no. he had already taken a shower and changing those clothes without actually giving them some use felt wrong.
