    It’s definitely way less work. If you get hired for an hour, you’re pretty much expected to be fully engaged in, if not sex, then at least being entertaining in some way. With the type of sex work she did, she was never getting paid for time spent sleeping or eating (and definitely not hanging out and shopping), unless that was someone’s kink, I guess. I had a series of sugar daddies in my early 20s, and don’t let anyone tell you that’s not sex work, and I definitely made less per hour than a more traditional prostitute, but I also put in a lot less energy. Plus, it came with a lot more perks.

        The only institution that performs more criminal and social background checks than the ATF and intelligence apparatus is America’s network of communicating sex workers.

            Ya know how therea books of short stories by authors or a collection of authors?

            You should totally do that with the numerous multimonth ADHD hperfixation learning binges you have gone on.

            But just write like just write out from memory as if it was a short story.

            Could collect from others like yourself and create anthologies of remembered knowledge. Like reviving or recreating an oral history like many people did in times of old
