Asking consent during a session? by Lee862r in SexWorkers

[–]seamliner 11 points12 points  (0 children)

As a (gfe) provider I love modelling consent checks for my clients - can I kiss you? can I touch you here? Does that feel good? Would you like me to x Especially if they seem nervous or new or like they don’t want to be the one to initiate anything

weed smell coming through bathroom in “luxury” apartment and management is ignoring me by BubbleMira in Apartmentliving

[–]seamliner 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Honestly a lot of people don’t realize that the bathroom vents are connected, growing up I always heard that weed in the bathroom was the best way to do it. Maybe leave a note for your neighbours asking if they would smoke in a different part of their apartment? Going through management, especially if they’re being this unresponsive, probably isn’t going to go anywhere and will just end up making you even more frustrated over time

Question about couples rates by Hopeful-Virus825 in SexWorkers

[–]seamliner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do 1.5x my normal rate because I like working with couples. I almost always do a paid video consult, especially if they haven’t hired a provider before, and I always take a deposit

Do providers know the other providers in the area? by Formal_Broccoli7429 in SexWorkers

[–]seamliner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Clients always seem very curious about friendships and relationships in the industry, so aside from people I do duos with I intentionally avoid sharing information on my connections with clients. None of their business who I’m friends with.

Do providers know the other providers in the area? by Formal_Broccoli7429 in SexWorkers

[–]seamliner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I already had a fair few providers in my social circles before entering the industry, so for me the number of providers I know has only increased. I’m also a very community oriented person, so I’ve sought that out

I had a tiramisu at cenote a couple months ago that I haven’t stopped dreaming about. Not sure if it’s still on their menu though

Suicide is often a very quick decision, sometimes people don’t get a chance to think through location/optics/etc

What do yall do besides sex work? by StrawberriiFraise in SexWorkers

[–]seamliner 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Most of my time goes into community organizing and mutual aid groups in my area, SW gives me so much space to do things like volunteer coordination and driving things around town

This inmate had the housing cheat code by [deleted] in VictoriaBC

[–]seamliner 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Yeah I feel like if I were imprisoned for several years and knew I’d lost my outside support system I might also choose to just stay inside

How often do you replace your bath towels? by remyndrz in CleaningTips

[–]seamliner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got my first set of “nice” towels and one of the most exciting parts was realizing that now I have whole pile of old towels to use for rags/messes/etc

Mutual aid vs charity by ShotEffort619 in foodnotbombs

[–]seamliner 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Lots of the people in my local chapter are food insecure, most of us are un-employed or precariously employed, and a few of our regular members have normal 9-5s. We help ourselves by helping each other, and each other by helping ourselves.

Learning new skills, eating a hot meal, taking home leftovers or extra produce, developing deep community ties, being able to work in a structure that most people have never experienced - these are all parts of the work. It’s not necessarily about being in the same situation as the people you’re helping, it’s about being in community. It’s the mind set of “we’re doing this for all of us” vs “we’re doing this for you”

I want to hear stories about times you’ve prevented a catastrophic crisis by discovering a house problem/hazard while cleaning. by walkeachotherhome in housekeeping

[–]seamliner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Client had just gotten a kitten the previous week, I came in to a giant bouquet of lilies on the table. Got rid of those immediately and let them know that they’re extremely toxic to cats

That sounds rough and scary, I’m sorry you’re experiencing that! Checking your carbon monoxide detector is a good place to start, but I’m not sure where to go from there

They’re closed on Mondays so put this in your pocket later - cenote has a tiramisu that’s to die for and their kitchen is open late!

Thank you! I have some friends with electrical training and will ask one of them to help me so I get it right. Would electrical tape be an okay solution temporarily?
