Bogota Reports

[Bango Cheito]

From the Bogota Post about small businesses and people hustling through the lockdown:

"One person who is doing well is Medusa Perverette, an online webcam model. With the dollar remaining resilient throughout the pandemic, she's continued earning at a good rate. Better yet, with people locked indoors, many are searching for human contact in any way they can find, as Medusa explains. "Webcam platforms have always been an escape for many people. The truth is, I've passed (the quarantine time) taking advantage of the fact that everyone's at home."

Of course, her clientele is international, including plenty in Europe and Asia. "They're worried," she says, "but the thinking isn't as depressive as here in Latin America. My users aren't getting depressed, it's the people here that are doing that. " It's reassuring to know that for one person at least, life is good. "I made a million this weekend, it's the perfect moment," Medusa concludes."

Medusa is an acquaintance of mine. She's so full of shit her eyes turned brown. I dunno if any of you know her personally but take everything she says with a grain of salt.

Most just use it for entertainment. Guys give money to the girls they like..

Funny you should mention that.

In the last few weeks there's been a big influx of Colombians into the live streaming apps. These are similar to the webcam sites, except they are PG rated and all you need is a phone.

One popular app, BigO, was dominated by Vietnamese women 8 months ago. About 4 months ago US women became the most common and most popular. Now it's Colombianas everywhere, and at least some of them are making money. I imagine there's been an increase on the webcam sites as well.

Some of the women are going to find other ways to survive.

I'm thinking there will be several gringos who decide it's time to marry their favorite prepago in case they ever get stuck at home again. There are also some mongers who are in a daily sweat over the markets, as that is their primary source of income.

This is going to change things. Who knows what the changes will be?

It's good that the girls can find online routes for money. I hope they do whatever they can to get by. When all this is over, I believe the world's oldest profession will come right back to all our favorite places. That's why it's called the world's oldest profession, it's survived wars, famine, and pandemics throughout the ages. There will always be a demand, hence always a source of income for the girls. The Vennies in Bogota are on the brink of riots since many are being evicted and are without aid. Many don't have skills to offer, and that's why they turned to the life of a working girl in the first place. Mongers will probably have to beat them off with a stick when the borders open back up. Let history be our guide.

What's the point, is it men giving women money for being pretty without any sexual content, or is it more of an introduction to some sexual service?

Sometimes I think mongers are like a lost Amazon tribe, insulated from the rest of the world. Nothing exists beyond the jungle of BBBJ and cuanto cuesta.

There are kids on YouTube making ridiculous money because people like to watch them play video games. There are people on Instagram making ridiculous money, just posting pictures of themselves, wearing clothes, on a beach.

The world is becoming more virtual every day. Live streaming services have been around for several years. Sony had a popular one, but they had to shut it down. Too many kids were using it to do live porn shows. Today's live streaming services use a reporting system and admins to flag and block any inappropriate content.

It's live streaming. Anyone can do it. It allows someone to effectively create their own TV show. Some people cook, show their makeup tricks, do crafts, sing or dance. Many use it to show off their body, without nudity. A few women use it to entice guys into the strip clubs they work at. A few are escorts and use it to attract new customers. Some use it to sell their porn videos.

Most just use it for entertainment. Guys give money to the girls they like.

What's the point? Beats me. There are guys here looking for girls with cartoon asses. What's the point? There are guys looking for huge, fake breasts. What's the point? No matter what it is, if you're not interested in it, you'll probably think it's pointless.

Interesting observation as I just saw a news article in the past few days where they expect a major increase in webcam models for Colombian women.

Let's see how this thing pans out.

I have also been reading this in other fora that women will be desperate and go into p4p for money. I don't think it is that simple. For one thing blokes seem to be forgetting that Colombian men are also hurting and they are the girls biggest meal ticket. Foreign men contribute a very small percentage of the girls' income and BTW foreign men's finances are taking a beating too. In order to survive girls will have to look for alternative sources of income. I hope I am wrong but I do not see good times ahead for our hobby.

There seems to be a lot of stupid hysteria out there: reinfection, no immunity, 100,000 to 200,000 dead in the USA. Anyone who looks objectively at the data can make their own conclusions about what is happening. When I looked at climate, international travels, and the shape of the curve with regards to infection, what I expected to see and what I have seen are the same.

If you look at existing cases, governments IMO are keeping the lag time of recovered cases deliberately low and give the impression that the virus is still spreading with new end in sight.

If you look at the curves of countries that have recovered, there is an exponential surge up, a peaking and then an exponential falling off..

OK you invited it. But I won't insult you because it doesn't help and who knows you may end up being right. But here are a few points. Everything I've read suggests the body if it is strong enough will fight off the virus and develop antibodies that kill off the virus and probably diminish the likelihood of 'reinfection'. I'm not so sure climate is playing such a big role in how events are unfolding. There are cases in many Middle Eastern countries, and Southern hemisphere countries and the growth rate is over 10% a day. Their smaller case numbers seem to be accounted for by the date of the first recognized case. You might also consider that Italy is having a much higher mortality rate because the average age of the population is higher. The US is pretty close to the same average age. (I. E. Over 40). Italy has just under 14,000 deaths today and the US is 5.5 times the population. So, ceteris paribus the equivalent deaths would be about 90,000 but the cases are growing and so are the deaths so 100,000 doesn't seem like a far fetched estimate at this point. Obviously a mitigating factor is that the US has much more medical resources available. I don't think you can rely on the patterns from other countries. China, South Korea and Singapore have taken extraordinary measures to limit the spread of the virus and to test and isolate people with positive tests. This includes taking their phone and identifying contacts over the last month, testing and isolating those contacts and their contacts. These measures wouldn't be popular in the US and there seems to be very little political will to really do what it takes to "beat" the virus. So, 100,000 deaths is the US? I don't think that is an exaggerated possibility at all. Like someone else said, I hope I'm wrong.

[Turgid]

Yeah, my gals told me about this. I am not sure the rest of the country will be like this though. Bogota is a practically perfect place for the virus to spread.

For mongers? For the ones who have not lost their jobs, it will be off the chain. There will be less competition from men, the existing women will be desperate, the exchange rate will still be favorable, and many of the women who were not selling themselves will be seeing no choice but to do so. The only downside is the border with Venezuela probably will not be opened up for a while.

The best mongering activities in recent time may have been Buenos Aires in 2002 or so and Russia and Ukraine a few years before that. Colombia in 2020 could possibly rival those times.

Question fellas, in my scientific research regarding the flora and fauna of Bogota Santa Fe do there exist the rare species of slim, hardbodied and toned females? I see plenty of photos and talk regarding VLAs (very large asses) and monstrous boobies but what about some silicone-free slim athletic girls can you find them in Santa Fe or not, thank you!

Am I in the right thread here? About Bogota?

Latest relevant news: "Mayor Claudia Lpez rattled already jolted nerves of nine million Bogotanos after she raised the probability that the quarantine for the Colombian capital could be extended to June. ".

It seems the authorities are taking a very hardline approach to tackle the virus spread, and one I'm sure we all hope will expedite a return to 'normal'.

In 6 months time. What will Bogota be like for mongers?

Kanga.

If you look at the curves of countries that have recovered, there is an exponential surge up, a peaking and then an exponential falling off.

If you read between the lines of the news, that is why there is hype IMO about re-infection even though there has been no significant re-infection in recovered countries. Maybe it comes back in the Fall but no one really knows what will happen then.

If you look at new cases not just in the USA, but in the world, it is pretty clear what part of the curve we are on. The number of new cases is at about 20,000 per day in the USA and 50,000 in the world right now and 100 or so in Colombia, and it has been like that for about the last 5-6 days. IMO the world, the USA, and even Colombia are in the plateau phase.

Feel free to hurl insults about "scientific evidence" though. I am used to that. When the "experts" are touting huge numbers like 100,000 to 200,000 American deaths (whatever the fuck that means), I tune them out. I would bet anyone that there will be between 0 and 100,000 dead in the USA given that there were only 3300 deaths in China and 12,000 in Italy.

I'm not going to bet on this. I really hope I am wrong. So never bet on something if you're hoping to lose.

But I can't see how it is going to stop or slow yet. So I think the 100 thousand plus is a real possibility. Looking at the curves, etc. Today again. Wish I could think or even hope otherwise.

All I can say. I really really hope you are right.

[Elvis 2008]

There is no scientific evidence that climate has an affect on the virus. MERS that is in the family of coronavirus started in the Middle East. It's hot as fuck there. So don't count on it.

I live in NY, but thankfully not in the city. The reason the US is showing the most cases is because of all the available testing. Many developing countries don't have access to that amount of testing, so they show lower numbers. The fact is the virus is everywhere now like any other virus, not just the US, China, and some European countries. Since over 90% of people that catch this have mild to no symptoms, it's impossible to have a correct count. I've had a cough for the past two weeks. Does that mean I caught the virus? Who knows, but it's going away. The virus will spread fast through any city around the world because of population density. It doesn't matter if its NYC, Bogota, or Timbuktu. I just read that Colombia is considering extending the lock-down by another three months, and I'm not surprised. Eventually, like the flu, a vaccine will be developed, but it's going to be a while.

Don't think the US is up to speed on testing. In spite of what someone said yesterday. On a per capita basis US is still way behind lots of places. But I agree that many other places are behind too, and for sure Colombia. And also that there are a lot of un-counted people with it wandering around.

The key is to get people to self isolate. And hopefully be able to test those who deliver essential services and health care so that any infections can be identified quickly and get those people isolated.

I think things will be locked down for a while. No country can tolerate a 1% death rate. They will try to save as many people as possible.
