The submission window is open-ended for the time being. The friends list stands at 99 until a deserving candidate pops up.
References from professors are disregarded. References from production companies, porn studios for which you may have performed, former sex partners, psychiatric facilities, etc. are more likely to advance your application.
The one and only, all-encompassing benefit is the selectee's rarified status as etoks21's 100th MDL Friend. The presence of this designation on one's profile page carries with it prestige and glory beyond imagining. There may be a certificate, though no statuette or trophy. I suppose I could draw one though.
Full-body nudes will move your nomination forward more quickly than mere headshots. And please, no shaved pubes. Light trimming is permitted.
A detailed self-description in one's profile should suffice. However, if you wish to increase your chances of success, you can DM me with your portfolio and a head shot (I'm a sucker for hot guys). Three references is sufficient. If they come from one of my trusted MDL besties, all the better.
It's amusing that you would skip the ending of a series you enjoy because you assume the ending will be tragic.…
Well, if your emotional/mental health is that fragile, and I do not mean that as an insult at all, good on you for taking care of yourself. I mean that sincerely. Depending on the show and the ending, I sob hysterically, wiping up the snot with paper towels, get severe weight in the chest (what is known as "heartache"), and feel depressed for hours. But I recover within hours, though an ending that brings on that kind of reaction will stay on my mind for days; not only because of the ending. That powerful response means that I intensely connected with the story and its characters, and it will take whatever time it takes for the constant thoughts to fade to a manageable level.
That said, the process doesn't interfere with my work or my real life, and I guess I'm a masochist, because I seek out, and in some way love, the movies/shows that touch me that deeply. There are a lot of us out here. :)
The films "A Frozen Flower," "Night Flight," and "Bleak Night:" and the BL "History3: MODC," left me a wreck but all of them are on my top 30 lists in their genre. Though I just looked at my best bl list and the first truly sad ending is H3:MODC, at #7.
What I object to are sad BL endings that come out of nowhere and in no way connect to the story that came before. Those are sadistic, viewer-abusive con jobs you don't generally see in straight shows and movies, and I do believe they're homophobic in nature. This is the reason I despise the popular and influential BL movie "Love of Siam." That ending is deceptive, manipulative, and sadistic to its core; coming out of nowhere to devastate the viewer. It's a last-second cheat deliberately crafted to make the audience look one way, then slap the across the face from the other. That flick went from a 9/10 to a 1/10 for me in its last 15 minutes.
I know depression/mental health issues very well and have wrestled with them most of my life. Through medication and talk therapy I've found a ground from which I function well and even embrace my extreme sensitivity. It is a quality extremely common to creative types like me...and perhaps you?
This is all by way of saying that if avoiding sad BL endings puts you in the state you describe for extended periods, you are wise to avoid them. I hope you are taking care of your mental health in general.
You were SUPPOSED to be disgusted; that's the intent of the story; that's why the type of revenge taken on this man is so powerful. His manipulator intended for HIM to be horrifically disgusted.
I could see being disgusted with the film if you thought it was making such a thing look like a positive, but that's not the case.
With the age and prevalence of the internet the rise of snowflakes is more and more. Its hilarious to see you…
It's no masterpiece, but I totally agree that the emerging generation is alarmingly prudish and easily "offended." They think they have the right to go through life without encountering anything that makes them uncomfortable.
Meh. Suddenly lost interest at about 25 minutes. Seemed interesting at first, then I got bored.Dropped.
yeah, yeah, yeah...I suppose the shocking plot twist is that he's been porking his own daughter who it turns out, is the sushi chef, right? If so, I figured that out when he met her. If not, oh well...
LOL S.Korea just shutdown their president's martial law and they ain't backing down on another president who wants…
Do you even know where the word "woke" came from or what it meant originally until the right-wing in the U.S. turned it into a negative?
I agree with you about everything regarding this faux controversy. But the way you use "woke," just as supporters of our new douche bag president Donald Trump do, pisses me off.
Wow. So many ballers in the comments hahahahahahaIf y'all want to see a full length movie COUGH up your money…
How weird that you think people should "not mention the format." I love this show, and I absolutely mentioned the format because the format almost had me dropping it at episode 2 out of extreme annoyance with the vertical clip format and its distracting effect on the story. BUT...the story quickly grabbed me to such an extent that by halfway through I wasn't noticing the format anymore.
Could you please tell me how to explain that process of my perspective evolving on this show without "mentioning the format?" lol

Best of luck with your submission.

All best.

Oh well...
Just say "I don't want to tell you why I'm embarrassed."
Nothing wrong with that answer.

Dropped.
It's yet another case of Korean celeb/netizen/purity/media culture gone mad.

There will be a rigorous vetting process.
:D
