SWOP Behind Bars

And remember when we literally told Congress what would happen and they said they didn't care about us they cared about "victims" ... seems like that's just a word to them

"Underage girls testing positive for pregnancy at detention centers." Let me fix that for you. "Children being raped at detention centers." There you go.

SWs in Scotland organized, and beat a proposed bill that would've criminalized ‘sex buying’. Scotland4Decrim did a massive public education campaign, urging law makers to reject a bill that would make their work more dangerous. The people, and policy makers, in Scotland listened.

This is the funniest thing I’ve seen on the internet. Afroman had his house raided by Ohio Adam County deputies… who found absolutely nothing… broke his door, trashed his place, allegedly had $400 go missing… and then they refused to pay for the damages. So, like any reasonable rapper would do… He turned his home security footage into music videos, mocking them. And then, the deputies sued him for FOUR MILLION dollars… because they didn’t like being made fun of. And Afroman’s response? He dropped ANOTHER music video. In his own words: “Unconfidential informant lied to Police to get out of some trouble. Adam County Sherriff officers made a mistake by believing the lie. Raided my house, found nothing, refused to pay for the damages and filed a lawsuit against me, Afroman, for exercising my freedom of speech! This is me holding trial in one song. I hope you enjoy it.” They said his videos “ridiculed” them… so he decided to show them what that actually looks like. And the best part? A jury basically said… yeah… you don’t get to raid someone’s home, end up in their surveillance footage, and then cry because they used it to make fun of you.

yeah so maybe hire sex workers as researchers oh wait you conflate sex work with trafficking so you can’t disclose it or get accurate data without putting workers in danger

@LaurenLevitt8 @WayfaringPhoto That is indeed good news!

I have amazing news. NYU is talking to @WayfaringPhoto about using one of her images from All in a Day’s Sex Work for the cover of Sex Worker Solidarity. I can’t wait to see what they come up with.

So let me get this straight: Trump fired Noem after she lied about spending over $200 million of taxpayer dollars on ads promoting herself. But he wouldn't lift a finger after two Americans were killed by her federal agents?

Don’t let the door hit you on the way out, Kristi Noem.

International Sex Worker Rights Day is not a hashtag, it is a response to systems that treat our labor as profitable but our existence as disposable. So here are our demands. Not vibes or empowerment fluff, demands.

March 3 is International Sex Worker Rights Day, a reminder that dignity, safety, and autonomy matter. Stigma and criminalization create real barriers. We provide confidential, nonjudgmental support year-round. Read more: thecupcakegirls.org/blog #InternationalSexWorkerRightsDay

Huge thanks to Savannah Sly, @CherieDeVille, @thesiridahl, for joining the Aylo x @swopbehindbars panel on debanking and ongoing advocacy for creators’ rights. Let’s keep working toward a future where creators can thrive both online and offline. If you missed the event, catch the full panel here: youtube.com/watch?v=sk1vw7…

Apparently we woke up this weekend and the world collectively decided: sure, let’s add another war to the schedule. #WeekendHotTakes swopbehindbars.org/post/weekend-h…

We’ve been saying this for years. Age verification laws aren’t just about “protecting kids.” They’re about surveillance, data collection, and forcing adults to hand over sensitive info to access legal content.

The war on #debanking didn’t end, it evolved. After reputational risk was banned, institutions quietly replaced it with “financial risk” and “compliance risk.” We break down: • The Wise policy shift • The loophole • How regulators track complaints • Steps to push back

An article from @Independent has tracked a notable increase in people in the UK starting or returning to sex work. Survey results indicate that 80% report financial need, 76% report some kind of disability and more than half are working parents.

Thank you sir, for your OATH TO THE CONSTITUTION‼️ ⁦@SenSchumer⁩ ⁦@RepJeffries⁩

Breathtaking revelations—whistleblower confirms that ICE agents are being deliberately & purposely trained to break the law & violate Americans’ 4th Amendment rights.

Well, we had these things called "books"; you could get them nearly anywhere for the cost of a fast-food meal, and they didn't need batteries or a wifi connection to entertain us for hours or even days. And best of all, there were tens of thousands to choose from!
