Dropping my son off at school on my way to work and a woman slows down, rolls down her window, and says, “I don’t know who you are, but you’re killing it in that outfit, KILLING IT!”

My favorite catcalls come from suburban moms in the drop off line. 😍

I just watched the Charlie Sheen doc and for how success he was, it doesn’t seem to me like he spent much on hookers. I bet he was a terrible client.

Life imitates art. Or maybe it’s the other way around.

My physical therapist outed herself as monogamous when she said she just this week discovered Google Calendar.

I can’t imagine wanting a “high level husband.”

Was having knee & back problems so a few months ago I started a pretty intense regime that includes PT, yoga, weight training, and sauna & cold plunge and my body is so tired that my mind is quiet.

Honestly, I highly recommend this approach given the current state of the world.

I get very depressed if I think too much about the Epstein shit because personally I believe that survivors deserve more than just the promise of maybe being a pawn in someone else’s political game after publicly retraumatizing themselves

I remember a time when poly used to cause me anxiety and now I’m like, “Wait, it means that I have a Friday night alone in my house to work on my writing, organize my lingerie, and eat ice cream while watching TV my partner doesn’t like?”
It is actually amazing. 😍

One of the great things about being shot by your photographer partner is that you get to see how they see you through their eyes ♥️

a big mistake we made was computers *should* be refrigerator sized and live in special basements, not ride along in everyone's pocket like an evil Jiminy Cricket

On Labor Day, don't forget that sex work is (precarious) work. Show some love to the sex workers who work hard to bring joy and pleasure into your life.

This beautiful article helps me articulate my sexuality... I'm passionate about sex. I love to serve my lover, shower with love & ravish her with pleasure. We show up for each other, being present & make connections, caring for the pleasure & needs of our lovers...
“Being ‘good at sex’ is not a matter of technique or physical prowess, it’s a matter of connection — of being present with and for another person.” This week in my Pittsburgh City Paper column Pillow Talk, I talk about what it takes to be “good at sex.”

What does it mean to be “good at sex”?
The things that make a person good at sex often have much more to do with soft skills, not hard ones (pun intended).

On International Whores' Day, I found out that my 19-year-old son's girlfriend's parents are forbidding her from coming to my house to visit with him because they did a deep dive, found my writing, and think I'm a corrupting force.

Sex work stigma impacts every part of my life.

A friend is coming over this afternoon and we are body doubling for each other while we do taxes. I’m pretty sure that’s the only way I’ll be able to face it. Send money for pizza and ice cream 😂

Gotta point out (again) the empowerment conversation is silly.

90% of sex workers don't talk about being empowered. They talk about being employed.

Empowerment doesn't pay bills. Money does. Sex workers work for the same reasons as everyone else- It costs money to be alive.
Another fevered story in the Daily Mail this morning attacking OnlyFans. The British tabloid press has been amping up antiporn stories, in what I suspect is a coordinated campaign to gin up public (and thus legislative) anger.

We've seen this before.
