RE: A Writer's Reflection on Career Shifts and Industry Turmoil

"imagine micropayments for kisses and hugs. would you tip someone for giving you a handshake?" Powerful stuff there man, never thought of it that way, but that's the insidiousness of modern media, normalizing these things without us even noticing anythings changed. I've never looked up only fans, but I've heard AI is also taking over that space. It's not hard to create hyper realistic people these days, I'm sure it's not hard at all to create an only fans model. Excellent read man, and you've got my vote. Keep writing!

Much obliged! I might be on my soap box, but really, it's like any of these performative transactions we're looking for. I've been to restaurants where someone who doesn't even come back to our table's angling for a tip. Better yet, picture the folks who spray your car and start wiping it as you're stopped at the light. We all have different situations, but I fear for a day when we've all become transactional.
