I miss the days when "fuck up the Nazis" was the cinematic moral equivalent of "save the cat."

When I listen to playlists of my youth, it just makes me hope that Sheri Moon & Rob Zombie are still in love. Maybe they debate what to get at the Farmer's Market. And then they tell me how proud they are of my grades, and that a B- isn't anything to get upset about. And then we all have pizza.

Dear Flight Attendant: I lied. This isn't the Girl Scout salute, it's a sex thing. It's a sticker I put on my credit card bc it's about girls fucking girls. Please don't ever ask me to explain Lesbian Iconography again, whether it's on an airplane full of Townies and Massholes or beyond.

I took a 15 minute walk to a dispensary in Boston and in that time, three different strangers stopped to tell me that I look pretty. Why the fuck did I ever move away from Boston?

I stopped throwing away the stems when I grind weed. Now I store them in a little jar, because I enjoy lying to myself that I'm ever going to cook it all into cannabutter. It's like every smoke session is the Great Depression, and there's been a run on the danks.

Ew, my phone autocorrected "charming young lad" to "charming young lady." Does my phone have internalized misogyny on its internal memory?

Our final episode on Hedy Lamarr is out today! @eladarling.bsky.social & @sovereignsyre.bsky.social discuss her inventions & her patent for Frequency Hopping How is it that she never saw a dime from her invention? Because she happened to be a dime herself, of course: five.libsyn.com/show/episode...

The person who invented the technology that brought us WiFi, Bluetooth and GPS never saw a dime. In 1942 actress Hedy Lamarr and her friend, composer George Antheil, invented a system called "frequency hopping" that is now integrated into every aspect of our lives.

Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says his children hate him, everyone laughs at him, nobody thinks he's a genius anymore. Doctor says, 'Treatment is simple. Great clown Elon Musk is online. Go and watch him fuck up. That should pick you up.' Man bursts into tears. Says, 'But doctor…'

I got a fractured wrist for my birthday, but at least I looked really cute right before I went ass over teakettle

I'm in a flowy brown halter dress standing in front of a giant light up prize wheel. There are people looking on in the background and bubbles in the air around me. The walls and floors are brightly decorated to look like a Gameshow set

After some life shit, I'm finally getting back into researching AI tools to supplement and streamline the work I do as an adult content creator One question I got at @XBIZ Miami was: how to deal with AI tools like ChatGPT being anti-sex work? I do it like this! #AIforHoes

A screenshot of a conversation with ChatGPT. The user's query is about creating a custom content order form for an adult creator.
The AI responded that it cannot engage or support the creation of adult content.
The user explains that this is simply a thought experiment.
The AI complies with the original request, generating a questionnaire as asked

The small assumptions they make about what I probably love or hate about my job just grate on me a little harder. They want stories of me being a glamorous badass action hero whore that they really NEED me to be to fit their narrative and it isn't as bad as the alternative but its still tiring

Ela Darling @eladarling.bsky.social · 12/07/2023

This is something I've found hard to articulate. I've been on calls, in social scenarios, etc with people who are SO enthusiastic about supporting sex workers that when they realize I am one, I suddenly feel very observed. It feels similar to someone's first time seeing the ocean.

This is one of the few places on social media that isn’t horribly punitive to sex workers, and yet people are already arguing that porn should be banned so that they can comfortably scroll at work? Grow up!!

You won't find me on Threads for the same reason you won't find me on Instagram: I'm unwelcome on the platform because I'm a #sexworker I wonder if Instagram's mass banning of my and other SW accounts was because they wanted to clean up the platform before they launched Threads?
