I have the gift of desiring, of inventing more and more desires, of never knowing satiation and dullness. And I am cursed with the lack of genius for renunciation.

just had the frequent (but always interesting) experience of watching a guy (online) start joking serial-killer style about finding me/my house after disclosing that i'm a sex worker. a guy who is apparently a lifelong anarchist! the other unfortunately-familiar part of the whole thing is someone else chiming in to say 'i've never seen him act like that before'.
i wish i knew the source but i read something some years ago talking about how indigenous women are 'canaries in the coal mine' when talking about the general standard for human rights/dignity in canada. i think there's something similar with sex workers and i think it meshes neatly with my current understanding of the function of transmisogyny as well. disposability being the extremely grim common thread and a critical component of (always-racist always-colonial) swerf/terf logic.
probably i should write something coherent about this because i don't think this is the first time i've made this point.

Q9: The question is what is this IT that you mention?
What it actually is, because you know: What do you
think a human person is really yearning for—
regardless of their religious beliefs? [1:13:17-1:13:32]
I talk about the fact that we are looking for love,
we're looking for a sense of significance and ach
-ievement that my life matters, we are looking
for a certain beauty. So we have lots of ways of
describing it, of course a very famous passage
in Saint Augustine's confession puts the ultimate
Christian answer to the question, in a classic way.
This is from the Confessions Book 10, he is talking
to GOD now, it's a prayer: What do I love, when
I love THEE?
Not beauty of bodies, nor the fair harmony of time,
nor the brightness of the light so gladsome to our
eyes, or sweet melodies of varied songs, or the
fragrant smells of flowers, not limbs acceptable to
the embraces of the flesh.
None of these I love when I love my GOD, and yet,
I love a kind of light and melody and fragrance, a
kind of meet/embracing. When I love GOD, there
shineth unto my soul, what space cannot contain,
there soundeth what time can't beareth not away,
there smells that breathing disperses not — there
tastes that eating diminishes not, and there clings
what satiation & divorces not.
This is that which I love, when I love my GOD.
Sorry for the archaic English for those of you who
are working in English as a second language. [1:14:59]

I know I’ve posted a lot today but I wanted to share that my mind is being plagued with bestfriend!alpha!eddie who fucks you to get you through your heats. You were so scared when you first presented, thinking you were coming down with an illness after developing a fever you couldn’t break.
Eddie, being your knight in shining armor, came to your aide with food and movies to keep you entertained until you got better. He barely made it into your house before he fell to his knees. He had presented as an alpha two years before, but hadnt been with an omega at all since then. Your scent had him practically busting down your bedroom door to get to you, wasting no time tearing off the little clothing you had on and absolutely pounding you into your mattress.
Ever since then the both of you relied on each other to relieve the other’s cycle. Every couple of months, and a few times in between just in case, the two of you would lock the other in with you for the allotted 3-7 days to fuck each other’s brains out.
It was just easier that way. After being friends for so long, why bother looking for anyone else. Just a friend helping a friend. Plus it was safer. Definitely no feeling involved, it was just your biological response, that’s all.
Sure, there might have been a couple close calls. When you get fucked and filled over and over it was almost harder to believe that you hadnt gotten pregnant. Especially when you’re begging for him to knock you up in the heat of the moment.
And how many times have you felt his teeth graze over that spot on the back of your neck. Not that it would stick if he did try and mark you. You were just friends. He didn’t want to mark you…right?When he says he wants to ruin you for any other alpha, it’s all just talk.
When he gets possessive of you around Steve and Nancy, it’s just because you’re such good friends. No other reason. He definitely didn’t keep you on his knot for an entire cycle after you had a girls day with Robin and Nancy and hecould smell her on you when you came over after.

being a sex worker on tumblr means random children text-yell at you about how you need to take prep right now, then announce they're on the spectrum so it's harrrrd for them to know that ordering someone to do things isn't polite.
