    First off, fuck all y’all for the slut shaming.

    Secondly, good for her. We live in a capitalist hellscape and she’s trying to make a living in a way that works best for her.

    Not sure what this has to do with the neighborhood. Y’all want to open the door for slut-shaming?

    sex work is real, valid, and good work. that being said the juxtaposition of advertising the onlyfans next to one of those stick figure families is what gets me.

      That crossed my mind too. Like I get it, effective advertising when you’re wandering around the grocery store, but you basically have a giant “I’m right here!!” banner across your car and in your driveway.

      That was my “Really!?!”

      Like streamers and content creators dont have enough trouble with parasocials when they try and keep their shit anonymous. Eventually some dude is gonna see this at his grocery store, develop an unhealthy obsession and bad shit is gonna happen.

    I don’t know who missed the big memo and needs to hear this, but OF people make a lot of money.

    You probably thought that, already, but it’s likely you weren’t thinking $25 million in six months.

    We learned that from Amouranth the Twitch Streamer/OF star posting basically her OF paystubs on Twitter to prove some sort of point.

    The thing is that’s not even top 5. $350 mil in a year is not out of the question, $150 mil is on the table, most of the women pulling that down, you’ve heard of. Black Chyna, for example. I want to say Nicki Minaj. So Amouranth is an also-ran at $25 mil a few years back.

    Let’s assume that there’s a long tail, like Twitch has, the incomes drop off steeply past the top 1% of earners. You can still expect that a lot of people you’ve never heard of are pulling in more money in a few months than you make in several years.

    They’re big girls, is all I’m saying, let them look after themselves, and make sure you handle them just like you’d handle a wealthy white man, don’t be his free cheering section, or hers. Let them both defend themselves if they need it, and afford them none of your resources if you can.

    If somebody scolds you about it, let that pass by, ignored. People who stump for OF creators are in that same zone as all those weird nerds that act like Elon Musk is a god. Mute them and move on.

    Save any solidarity you have for yourself, your friends, the people around you, and let the OnlyFans people look after themselves. They are certainly not looking after you.

    It would be nice if capitalism’s reward mechanism wasn’t so horrifically busted, but it is what it is, I guess. Take care of yourselves out there.
