Sex and ads and product and sex, virtual gifts, ugh. All of this is such bullshit, unproductive work; massive software systems and pieces of infrastructure built just to deliver fresh naked pixels to your screen, pixels that are trying to extract money from you and/or sell you something that you don't need.

It's all very tiresome. It's soulless, and of course especially in the case of OnlyFans, as a new aspect of the porn industry. For many, it can be destructive to your life, as you're consumed and chewed up by a machine that preys upon the youngest women it legally can and then moves on from them after a few years.

All of this is very seedy and regrettable; a symptom of the continual human desire for unending novelty in our vices.

My post doesn't really go into any of that actually. Though it seems to have triggered something in you that's reacting against SW.
