So I've been quiet here for about two months. Adjusting back to a life in Belgium is... weird. Quietly rebuilding a life that you left behind for 8 years. Coming back and seeing how it's the same but different. Or maybe I'm different? Who knows.

It's only cool if your family is white though. Let's not kid ourselves.

I have been a bit quiet. But I also moved back to my home country after 7.5 years and 9 months of traveling, adjusting to a new life... so yeah it's been a bit much but I'm good.

I'd love to read it, though honestly: the dyslexia is strong with this one. I've struggled through anthropology with lots of reading materials but my god does it cost me a lot of mental effort!

They say don't feed the trolls, but I disagree. They always disperse if you annoy them long enough.

It's not only an important story, it's also just a very good and interesting documentary! So if you can, please do.

Maybe you're just not a morning person? I know that is the case for me. My point was more about the sexualization of sex workers in the sense that people expect me (because of the kind of content I make and the work I do) to want to talk dirty / be horny 24/7. Which is not reality.

I agree, but it does seem something is slowly changing. We'll see. It's about time

Omg, that sounds like a nightmare!

I hope so, but I'm afraid more often than not, they won't know. Just one more reason for people to start talking about sex work openly, I guess.

I purposefully didn't mention a name, because I'm sure I'd be portrayed as an attention seeker in media, but I also don't want to just lay down and accept this is how it works. Because it shouldn't be.

I think the message came through! I wanted to check out the Belgian porn scene, contacted somebody known in Belgian porn and it didn't go through in the end. Mainly because I wanted to have a conversation about do's and dont's, limits, sti tests, ... Apparently asking questions is unprofessional 😂

Veiligheid en transparantie horen geen luxe te zijn in de porno-industrie
In de Belgische porno-industrie blijken veiligheid, transparantie en consent in de praktijk geen vanzelfsprekendheid.

I don't think my cat slept during the entire flight! Which (with transfer) was over 48 hours!

I don't often watch football, but if there's a chance to humiliate the USA, I'm down. Let's gooo! (please don't dissapoint, Belgium).

Yeah, I often do behind-the-scenes as ppv. But, my hope is to incorporate it with other material as well and create a mix of a day-in-the-life, perhaps half a podcast, half a documentary, half a porn movie, ... I don't know yet. Too many ideas 😅

Oh, poor kitty! Ours for some reason also hates cars above all other forms of transport 😂

She turned 17 a little while ago. We moved her a bit ahead of us, when she was still 16. But, because we had to do a medical check-up, it turned out she has a kidney disease and probably only has two, three more years left. Luckily she's used to moving around a lot.

Amy Chan @amychan2.bsky.social · 26/06/2026
Oh, I get that. My parents and me didn't speak for a couple of years, but we did court mandated family therapy (this was before I started doing porn) and that helped quite a bit.

If you ever thought moving across the world with an old cat was a good idea; let me tell you: it is not.

Haha, yeah. But you can't really fault him for worrying. He has come to terms with it since.

Zijn er bepaalde vormvereisten waaraan voldaan moet zijn en moeten het papers zijn van de UGent of maakt dat niet uit? 🙂

Het is zo ver. Na acht jaar in Japan en na negen maanden reizen door Z-O-Azië, komen we terug naar België. Iedereen is bij deze gewaarschuwd: houd u klaar!

Zowel het object als de context van de woede bepalen het morele karakter ervan, niet enkel de emotie op zich.

Het willen van 'wraak' is bijgevolg enkel een vraag naar rechtvaardigheid. Alle 'woede' over een kam scheren doet te kort aan de vaak uiteenlopende en legitieme redenen die mensen hebben om 'woedend' te zijn.

Hier heb ik dus een probleem mee: er wordt van survivors verwacht dat zij vergeven, compromissen zoeken... zodat de maatschappij zich lekker op haar gemak kan voelen. Neen. Woede gericht naar de persoon die je jarenlang heeft verkracht is niet alleen normaal, maar zelfs gezond.

Woede wordt gezien als ‘kracht’, maar het tegendeel is veeleer waar

I recently did an online interview about sex positivity and other topics: vanderwaardart.com/2026/06/hail... , if you're interested to read it. Caution: the interview includes explicit pictures of me (if you want to avoid that).

Me too! With my current set-up (and the fact that we're traveling for a few more months) I can't fully do it the way I want, but we're already trying out a few new things. Once we're settled again this will be a lot easier!

Unfortunately it's apparently still not enough to make any meaningful change in regard to our position toward Israel...

That makes sense! I honestly also don't watch a lot of porn 😅

But that's the thing: I don't want it to be something along side the actual shoot, I want to incorporate everything into it. I want my shoots to be a mirror of reality.
