Rants and Stupid shit in Hartford

[QUOTE=MaxThrust;7383439]There's an easy answer to that legalize it.

Then both parties are kept safe from lowlifes and thieves, as there's no longer an impediment (legal reprisal) for reporting something.

Sadly, we'll never see it (in this country anyway) as long as those in power continue to spin the "All sex workers are trafficked" narrative they're so enamored with.

Ok, I'm off my soap box.[/QUOTE]Personally, I'd much rather see it decriminalized than legalized. I don't want the government getting involved, but they always want their piece.

Texting apps, why are they frowned upon for clients? I would say when I used the apps to message providers, I have maybe a 60-40 success rate. I see in a lot of profiles they won't take messages from texting apps. What's the big deal? From the clients side, its for safety. I wouldn't want a provider tracking me down, or my socials for whatever reason. Even worse, finding out our place of business. Same goes for the providers, but its hypocritical as a lot of them use them too. I was scrolling and saw a provider mention them. I figured I reached out to see her point of view. She brought up Ted Bundy, and blocked me LOL.

There are a multitude of reasons why girls would have that as a restriction. For their safety they want a real number so they could track if something happens. Some have blacklisted guys or ignored them but they get a new number and show up anyway. Also, a significant amount of received texts are just people playing games. One might think that if a prospective client texts them that they'll actually show up. I would say well over 50% of texts received are by people with no intention of showing up. I've heard as high as 80-90%. Countless times I've had girls say they aren't avail till an hr or so later then 15 min later ask if I could come right then due to a no show. Too many girls and guys playing games which makes the whole thing frustrating.

If they say no text apps, go ahead and hit them up anyway or pass over them.

[/QUOTE]Indeed. I messaged a girl last weekend and asked if she was available. She said yes. Asked for details, she replied 15 minutes later. Then 20 minutes later. I moved on. She texts me again like 5 hours later, LOL. I told her she should work on her response time. Money she's missing. She replied saying she gets bombarded by messages or whatever. I told her that's all she had to say. She sent me a link to her calendar booking app. Haven't seen her yet.

Four former USA Presidents are caught in a horrible tornado that hits a state funeral they're all attending in Kansas.

Suddenly, all of them are blown off to Oz.

They finally make it to the Emerald City and come before the Great and Powerful Oz.

"What brings you before the great Wizard of Oz?

Jimmy Carter steps forward timidly: "I've come for some courage. "

"No problem!" says the Wizard. DONE!

"Who is next?

Ronald Reagan steps forward, "Well. I.I think I need a heart. "

"DONE," says the Wizard.

"Who comes next before the great and powerful Oz?

Up steps George W. Bush, who says, "I'm told by the American people that I need a brain. "

"Not a problem!" says the Wizard. "Consider it DONE. "

There is a great silence in the hall.

Bill Clinton is just standing there, looking around, but doesn't say a word.

Visibly irritated, the Wizard finally asks, "Well, what brings you to the great OZ!

"Ummm," he says, "is Dorothy around?
