the convolution of sex with harm by Apple in 2008 has totally defined who gets to innovate at scale for the last 14 years
the degree to which innovation in even the slightest of edgy spaces has been curtailed due to apple is really underappreciated, I think. If you're making an app, you have to get approval from apple for any chance at success; they're like a defacto government

Voluntary sex work "would be a lot safer if it were decriminalized," says @Aella_Girl. She's right.

It would be far easier to prosecute sex trafficking if voluntary sex work were legal.

The irony of swerfs going on about ‘hidden voices’ is that there are loads of people who are or were sex workers who cannot speak openly about their experiences because of the stigma that they pedal.They actively uphold barriers to people sharing lived experience of sex work. 1/2
