you know it's serious when someone brings on the big letters


well normally I don't. in most things. but when it comes down to peeps having access to banking and the ability to rent or buy homes or even just not getting beat up/murdered by peeps feeding off of an official 'ok' to hate on peeps in sex work/porn, sorry for caring

I don't think you could even find the words solidarity and compassion in the dictionary

[GFY if he's actually interested wait for the next thread 'bout what those words mean cuz we all we all have fortes but 'search for words and phrases and sites' is not one of his]


this has affected me personally in three ways:

1) had a bank account shut down at the very start of my biz owing peeps paid through that method over 60k. have the idea you woulda just told them to pound sand, instead I travelled to the US to basically beg another bank to take me on, and they did, and everyone got paid. for real, would you have ever done that? that was primarily cuz apparently parent co of the payroll co was engaged in fraud but trust me the payroll co's ties to adult were the final kicker. I was told that by the wonderful bank manager I had for my biz account who gave the notice. no sarcasm there, she was wonderful

the bank was just doing CYO cuz fraud AND adult biz? they made the financial decision to let all of us go

lol made so many friends navigating through that process so guess there's that


2) a good friend of me and my bestie is a mom and needed to go into rehab. badly. no other friends capable of taking her daughter on and same with fam

so me and my best arranged to temp foster her for schooling/health care and such, basically the JA version of 'in loco parentis' so mom could focus on getting well, w/o lil gyal ending up in an orphanage aka 'Child Nursey'

THEN I found out I bought a domain (through a reputable provider) WITHOUT THE PRIVACY PROTECTION I was promised cuz I guess busy or something?

that woulda killed the whole process, of her living with bestie and both of us taking care of her, were it found out I bought an adult domain with my real name and address public

only found that out cuz all of a sudden I started getting emails from 'website design' and 'SEO companies' addressing me by my full name, at the registered email, for a domain with 'Fetish' it in

thankfully I had sold my co by then and had to transfer the reg owner to the new buyer like a week in so no public record so no harm no foul, but this coulda fucked up a lil pickney's life and her mom's pursuit of sobriety at a really difficult time

let alone for my best, as a single pops to his own young'un, the gov knowing his best friend was a dirty dirty whore?


3) a really good friend back when I was living back on a diff island was brutally murdered. just one of a string of sex workers (Dominican prostitutes) the cops and no else apparently cared about, cuz again....whores. she had a son and a mother. she making money for them. we had to fight so hard for them to even investigate her disappearance

her body was found, eventually, after mainly me harassing the cops to do a fucking search outside local. as a paleface expat as they didn't listen to locals at all ever, let alone the temp worker chicas. we all did everything there and sent her back home to moms for burial. gov didn't help at all

took years for dude to finally be caught


none of this has consequences for me. I'm not a victim of any of the above. you making light of the real consequences of anti-adult attitudes and policies when you're some 80 plus dude shooting stuff in your home for kicks "just fucking around"?


I can't even...

and this is with all of this being legal technically, in terms of the work


dude, this ish has consequences. if you don't care for your own special self, cool I guess. but maybe sit down and let the rest of us who do care do something without your oh so helpful disparagement?


not a matter of adapting, and sadly no 7-11's in my nation so I guess my other opportunities are nil

not a matter of adapting. just the reality of clients still liking to pay with cc's (or wire in the case of NA regs). at least the NA ones I find most prefer cc's. and in my almost 20 years experience most Brits, Aussies and Germans too

US/UK/CA/GER/AU. totally not valuable markets. I don't even know why I'm replying, you're just cranky and all of this will go over your head


thread saved, gracias


whew, that was a mouthful. I hope the counter-argument was worth it to someone but def done with cranky-pants

off to bun a spliff
