If you joke about Stephen Miller killing sex workers when he’s mad then you have more in common with him than you think.

Your regular reminder that Progressives INVENTED sex work prohibition, in the late 19th century, and still support it today using the same tactics of agency negation, infantilization, and we-know-betterism. They are and always have been the allies of religious nuts in this.

The Epstein case is a really important illustration of why erotic professionals deserve full legal rights and workplace protections.
Epstein and his clients were able to victimize so many girls and women because the victims risked imprisonment if they told police about his crimes.

Ten years in prison for tipping a cam model to masturbate.
The Crime and Policing Bill is working overtime to re-criminalize sex work ... which I guess will give them crime and more funds for policing.

Sex worker doesn't work as a joke because it's an inherently humanizing term, unlike hooker or prostitute.

A reminder that this anti-trans panic is 100% bullshit and exactly none of our country’s problems are related to someone expressing their gender identity and everyone who isn’t a hate-filled weirdo knows it.

Somebody asked me if I've been reading anything exciting lately, and all I could think to say was Narrow Rooms by James Purdy, so that guy's got a wild ride ahead of him.

Transgressive queer horror fiction? Oh yes, I’m a fan—as long as it’s not problematic of course

New York just elected a mayor who supports trans people, unions, and sex workers. I have nothing witty to say. I’m happy.
