Got asked to send a demo mix over to some of San Antonio's like dozen goth clubs. It's not anywhere remotely near trad goth but I've lurked in enough dungeons and dark raves to feel confident this'll hit.

This glowing shoot always reminds me of a wild trip to @domcon.com LA, full of tales far too scandalous to share! Pic by @alexandrakacha.bsky.social Shiny PVC fetwear by @artificeclothing.bsky.social + Badass gold pasties from Bordelle that I absolutely cherish.

Substack is not an alternative to a self-hosted website. Pouring labor into socially-driven platforms has proven inherent risk. SWs built up Facebook, Tumblr, Instagram, Twitter etc. - and then they threw us in the trash after making money off content we created that drove their growth. Fuck that.

I'm thrilled with the results of my newest SW website design project, vestamatrix.com Every site I create is beautifully brand-tailored & every design is fully unique - all set up for maximum visibility growth potential. Want yours? Hit me up!

Two website passion projects I'm aching to work on as soon as I have time + collaborators: - A private, vetted, highly secure forum for SWs to connect. The framework's ready; just needs testers & modmin. - A simple event directory for local artists/musicians/DJs/promoters to post their events.

For SW/adult biz newsletters, the best and safest rec I can make is the Newsletter plugin for Wordpress. Zero risk of getting shut down due to morality policing, total privacy control, unlimited subscribers. Pair it with SMTP to avoid the spam warp zone and it's far better than any other option.

I've been transitioning out of full-time SW the past few years (& not gonna say that's easy) for a solid number of personal reasons. The grind it'd become also became my intro to SEO work. I don't know if I'd say that I'll never session again. Are the kinks fun & is their wallet talking? Well...

My best DJ tips thus far: Don't stop, and "Percolator" mixes with everything. youtu.be/b-R0TC0DLVE?...

My 🅧🅧🅧 🅢🅔🅞 Coworking Club takes place every Monday for anyone who wants to knock some biz out and chat about all things websites and marketing. All SWs are very welcome to join! Feel free to pop in, pop out, camera on or off. DM me for the link.

Because I think we all know I LOVE shiny.

Shiny media experimentation for a subversive.group makeover.

My major Subversive Group projects in the coming week center on SW newsletter marketing setup & campaigns, one of my newest offerings! Email systems & newsletter services fuck with our ability to communicate, and I love kicking down hurdles that seek to hold SWs back from the freedoms we deserve.

Got absolutely deluged with projects this week, which is awesome, but means that given the amount of prep involved, I'm postponing my free On-Page SEO for SWs webinar until July 12th. More time to RSVP 😉 I'm pumped to share the most valuable tips I have for major growth in adult industry marketing!

Pleased as punch with my garish new Soulseek look. Buncha old stuff in the screengrab because I was making a mix for my dear ole dad.

Shout out to Frankie Knuckles the Gawd, and shout out the Paradise Garage: youtu.be/RaP6w7Xmprc?...

Up for a round of 🅧🅧🅧 🅢🅔🅞 Coworking Club? Hit me up for the link! We'll be doing a combination of focused mirror working and open discussion on SW websites and marketing.

Making some creative time for myself this week to giddily work on some writing. Might even drag my ass to an open mic soon, which could be mortifying - but inevitably thrilling. Here's an excerpt from "Tycoons", about my rowdy days as a sugar baby, from my forthcoming book, "Smooth-Purring Engine".

Our first coworking meetup is an hour away!

Best face forward for yesterday's SATX protest outside the Turning Point Women's Leadership Summit. Weaponization of twisted religion mobilizes violence against our LGBTQIA+ communities. Sometimes stealth action is best, but raising hell on the street can also make for potent queer catharsis.

My 🅧🅧🅧 🅢🅔🅞 Coworking Club starts next week! This free online weekly mirror work & marketing discussion meetup is geared for SWs seeking lasting brand visibility that grows over time. Beginners welcome! No website's needed to get things going. Mondays, 12pm-4pm CST. DM for the link & share it freely.

One last pre-sesh selfie for the road!

First SW photo shoot in borrowed clothing on a busted couch in a lesbian bar, Austin TX, 2011. Final SW photo shoot in my dungeon, Deep Space, NYC, 2022. Last month I had my FINAL pro scene! I'm officially full-time with my SW website & marketing biz. Thanks for 15 years of beautiful kink memories!

Good SEO can bring more people to your website than social media and advertising combined - with visibility that grows over time. Starting next week, I'm hosting a SEO Club mirror work & marketing discussion meetup for just for SWs. Mondays, 12pm-4pm CST. DM for the link & share it freely.

Repost the Leather Dachshund from Seattle Pride 1991 to be blessed this Pride Month!

international whore’s day is such a complicated day — to celebrate the community and work that has brought beautiful comrades & friends, kept me alive, while also facing the immense violence & criminalization we all face.

As a nonbinary Texan into mutual aid groups and peaceful protest, Ken Paxton's pretty much got me pegged as a terrorist like six times over. He's got those boxes checked: trying to help folks, making some poster board signs, queering around minding my happiness. Clearly, the danger lies right here!

Oh snap it's International SWs Day. All the love to my found and chosen family, the SW scene that gave me a true sense of home.

🅧🅧🅧 🅢🅔🅞 is my specialty because great SEO can bring way more traffic to SW sites with less time & effort long-term than social media + advertising combined. My pricing is tuned for accessibility & my offerings are built for serious growth. Let's build your brand! subversive.group

Astute comment during Sunday's 🅧🅧🅧 🅢🅔🅞 webinar: "I feel a little bit like SEO is a lot like making a spiderweb on the internet." Yes! It's wild how much the walls of social media have obscured what the internet is and can be for us. There's a big wild worldwide web out there. It's still all ours.

Austin is a DMT hallucination and when it wears off you're just standing outside some ugly condos eating an $18 sandwich.

I too recently became aware that there's an unofficial Showgirls sequel starring Rina Riffel, who played Penny in the original! She also wrote, directed, edited, and produced! The title? Showgirls 2: Penny's From Heaven. 🤯 I found a DVD rip on Soulseek of all goddamn places. HMU for my upload link 💃

As Subversive Group gains steam this account has become somewhat more biz-geared. No worries, I'm still here to romp! Official biz-type account coming soon. It's called Subversive GROUP but for now it's just me, doing everything. That will change! youtu.be/JYWM4zlEvcA?...

Many SEO specialists: "You should be using AI to write copy. Taking time to write it yourself isn't efficient." LLMs can't step to my poetry (yet) and I adore writing! Moreover, with AI optimization growth, I predict potential long-term payoff for using good genuinely human-written content.

Nothing says "nearly zero civ job experience" like botching my 🅧🅧🅧 🅢🅔🅞 webinar recording! I'm recording a fresh run of this intro SW marketing sesh to post next week. Next up in this series: my on-page content intensive. You'll be writing the hottest SEO blogs ever, I promise! June 28th, time TBD

I declare today Laura Dern day. I'm gonna get super baked and watch Inland Empire while eating two kinds of bread pudding, then finally crack out this 1994 Spin Magazine interview she did with Kate Bush, which is basically my dream blunt rotation. www.musicmusingsandsuch.com/musicmusings...

Starting up a weekly SEO Club mirror work & marketing discussion meetup for just for SWs! I moved to NYC right after Backpage got shut down & weekly meetings like this built my SW site into a SEO beast. GAME CHANGED. Let's do that together! Mondays, 12pm-4pm CST. DM for the link & share it freely.

People often ask me what they need to have together before creating their SW biz site. A website is your ultimate platform. Start now. Get your domain, get anything on it to get things rolling, even just some pix/bio/links - it can take a bit for new domains to gain traction in search visibility.

If you don't like how social media is treating SWs - we have other options and the time is now.

Whewww! Just wrapped up my first time presenting my new 🅧🅧🅧 🅢🅔🅞 webinar on search visibility for SW sites. Y'all. I'm not even exaggerating for marketing purposes... That was EXCITING. Wanna look at my deck? docs.google.com/presentation...

Remember that Pride Month wouldn’t exist without trans sex workers. We owe everything to them.

Labeling entire accounts “adult” and hiding them, no matter what they are posting, will inevitably suppress vast amounts non-explicit political speech around sex work and censorship. The accounts most likely to speak out about over moderation are the ones first to experience it — the whistleblowers

"I am not a victim, I am a woman who speaks four languages and studied economics. I have worked in various professions. Why shouldn't I work as a sex worker if that's where I'm most successful and can use my strengths."

Putting the finishing touches on tomorrow evening's free 🅧🅧🅧 🅢🅔🅞 adult business visibility marketing webinar. I'll be covering the fundamentals of what SEO is and isn't, and what it can do for growing your SW business. It's my goal to approachably share information that can empower you in thriving!

Websites I build include a handy template that walks you through writing content with great SEO. Blogging regularly with a focus on keywords for your favorite specialties can boost your site's visibility to high-quality clients with a deep interest in your interests. Get seen. subversive.group

Showgirls is one of my favorite damn movies. People think it's satire or camp, and it kinda is, but speaking as a SW who's worked in one of the most cutthroat markets in the world, where people go to hit the top, there's always someone waiting to rise and willing to shove someone down the stairs.

With 20+ years of SW experience and as a SW marketing specialist, I've seen all kinds of trends come and go. These are the current biggies: * Clowning * Bimbofication * Gooner lifestyle * Mommy Domme - this one stays relatively consistently in trend. What does all of this say as a sign of the times?

The world's worst drinking game would be to down one every time the host of this gooning documentary touches something squick. The remote control covered in plastic...my gawd... That said, as a video artist and AV specialist I'm in awe with this gooner's visual setup. youtu.be/PYwl2P2ol4c?...
