Porn and Porncows

Makes me kinda happy no black porn stars fucked up enough to be lolcow worthy TBH.


Edit: I meant to say, no black porn stars have fucked up enough for people to care.

Ava Addams is a lolcow for me because she can’t handle criticism when people are negative in the Instagram comments.

There was a incident where she made a photo and her room in the background was cluttered.

A guy commented “Clean up your room” and I just liked the comment.

A few hours later I was blocked.

Mind you she has over 1,7 million followers.
There were quite over 3,000 comments on that photo alone.

That must be her part time job - scanning Instagram comments all day every day.


Also she complained about airlines not giving out her luggage on Twitter and I tweeted at her “Imagine when they find 30 different Dildos in one suitcase”

... and she took the time to reply to me calling me an asshole and blocking me there, too.

 

[Fuck Y'all]

Looks like Stormy is hypocrite

There's a pretty well-known post written about her from the perspective of her short-time cousin discovering the girl he was close to as a child he fell out of touch with was a porn star while jacking off: https://thehundreds.com/blogs/content/porncousin. It helps explain why she's so fucked in the head.

To summarize for those too lazy to actually read the whole thing: Lexi's biological mom died in a car accident (her biological father is never mentioned, I'm guessing he probably ran out or something) and she wound up being tossed around foster care families who only cared about the paycheck until being adopted by her new cousin's aunt and after a short while the aunt found herself unable to continue taking care of her while also dealing with cancer so Lexi wound up in the foster care system again.

Some choice quotes from the article:

"I feverishly walked around my house like a mad man. I knew I’d eventually have to address the computer I just threw across the room, but for now I needed to assess the entire situation. What had once been a normal moment of looking at online porn had quickly become a life-changing moment. I was planning on masturbating, and then going on with my day, but when I realized one of the girls in the porn I was watching was my cousin, I screamed at the top of my lungs and couldn’t comprehend what to do next."

"I’m progressive enough to understand that porn stars are normal human beings and making a conscious decision to partake in a profession I regularly enjoy, but all I could see was the 8-year-old child that meant so much to me."

"It felt too weird to tell my mom her porn name, so I explained the entire situation to her, but left out that small detail. I wanted to remove her ability to Google and find a clip with James Deen thinking it was a tribute to the 1950s actor."

That is terribly sad.

I know the whole "strippers and porn stars all have daddy issues" bit gets played for laughs all the time but there seem to be a lot of heartbreaking sob stories in this industry, largely centered around girls who grew up in abusive families or just never felt loved or accepted by anyone. I also know porn is a business a lot of women choose freely and some do quite well and run their own companies but the failure rate seems quite high and brutal.

I've also heard that these days young girls get lured in with promises of prestige and 6-figure yearly incomes and then get dumped by their agents and blacklisted mere months into their careers because it's simply cheaper to get a new batch of naive girls with no business experience than to pay more for a performer who starts cultivating a fanbase and worse, becomes aware of her own worth. I forget who it was but a few months ago I saw an interview with a 40-something porn star who'd had a career since the 90s (Lisa Ann maybe?). She said the prevalence of 18 year olds doing porn would be considered absurd a generation ago, when even "teen" themed porn starred girls in their 20s and the average starting age of new girls was like 23 or 24. Because now shady porn producers have learned to dangle a shiny carrot in front of any high school girl with an instagram page.

And from the same interview, the advent of internet piracy is a huge factor because porn studios don't rake in nearly as much money as they used to. The golden age is long past and I have to wonder when the pool of new performers might start to dry up.

It doesn't help the industry that barriers to entry have declined massively and amateurs only need a webcam, phone and social media to create revenue and network, especially by capitalising on the trend of offering personal, low-cost content and interaction via streaming, Twitter, Snap, Kik, etc. Think about how many random thots already blur the line into amateur porn by selling nudes or short clips for pocket money. Such a career includes the obvious advantage of being able to make their own rules.

Were major payment processors to ever soften their stance on funding adult content, the existing porn industry would likely begin a rapid decline since it would instantly become easier and safer for independent actors to support themselves, in particular because it would give way to more trustworthy and popular platforms to sell their content.

I imagine that the industry has already lost a lot of talent to webcam sites. Though it's unlikely to rake in big bucks, there's no shortage of venues for aspiring performers to sell their stuff directly to their customers.

It's very analogous to the contrast between tv stars and youtube personalities. The bar is much lower for the latter, and concordantly so is the standard for talent and professionalism. That's why we see "serious" youtubers kamikaze their own careers and even personal lives over nonsense political grandstanding whereas the Hollywood of old at least understood that the almighty dollar was the fairest god to worship.

If porn weren't so stigmatized by anti-sex crusaders on both ends of the spectrum I guarantee you'd see porn stars launching into slapfights over shit like gamergate. As things are even if a performer had an account here and followed all the usual autism wars for her own entertainment she'd be very unlikely to involve herself because the fact that everyone everywhere resents her "dirty" career choice and thinks her unclean no matter how much they jerk off to her in private has to be sobering.

The key characteristics that separate amateur from professional pornography shoots are production quality, access to networking and legal obligations. There will always be a divide between Youtube and Hollywood because YT creators can't (yet) summon tens of millions of dollars and hundreds of SAG employees to create a production that goes to every theatre on the continent, but I think it's entirely conceivable that independent porn actors with access to high-quality film gear, digital distribution and payment methods could render porn companies obsolete as they are, especially when you factor in the decreasing relevance of physical sales (as you say).

Producing porn doesn't require any special expertise that only professional studios can provide. I think the next big players will be whatever nerds make the next generation of platforms for streaming and selling adult content.

It has been held for many years that porn is the industry of "first adopters": whatever media format they back is what wins. It was true for vhs vs beta, it was true for blu-ray vs hd-dvd.

This phenomenon may end up biting the studios in the ass if performers en masse decide that homegrown camming is more profitable than ever involving a studio in the first place.

somewhat amusingly, iirc one of the bigger interpersonal slapfights during the heyday of Gamergate was some highly publicized debate stream between Mercedes Carrerra (a porn actress) and Chris Kluwe (a former NFL player turned WoW addict).

Sometimes it can be even worse than that. I heard a story from a former porn star about a scene she did involving two just turned 18 year old girls. She said the girls apparently dropped out of school to do porn and that they met their agent at a highschool house party. Pretty disturbing imo. Well here's the video(this story starts at 18:55):

I see that you have never heard of Monica Foster.

Will McDonald a wannabe no chin porncow here, was also on the show Beauty & The Geek

a video of from ten years ago as well

 

[Smaug's Smokey Hole]

Everyone knows that porn is a multi-billion dollar industry but I don't think there's that much money in porn on the individual level, it's all aggregate revenue. MindGeek(owner of all the porn) is making shitloads of money but even there I suspect that their network engineers earn more annually than their performers. Back in 2001-2004 I read an article that said a best seller for a lot of companies was a movie that sold ~3,000 copies, that's not a lot but the same company might crank out 25 videos per month so it adds up. But the margins are still low. Googling it shows that the porn market has grown from $4 billion in 2001 to $97 billion in 2017 yet few involved seems to be any richer than their equivalents in 2001.

looks like a Trump hotel shooter is a porncow

lil' pedo Marsha May is free again; she got fat and now is lesbian

We do seriously need to talk about porn cows more often.

I miss conversation about them like Donny Long and the infamous shitty butthole scene.

 

[Pozzingmyfilthyneghole]

He's Mr. Clean's AIDS-ridden evil twin, Mr. Contamination.

Charlie Sheen gave him the pozzed gift that keeps on giving.
All the trans pornstars he’s fucked and nothing. One night with Charlie Sheen and the bug hunt is over.

The biggest irony is that the guy is one of Donny Long’s many arch-enemies, and the things Donny says about him violating health standards are completely valid concerns within the industry.

So, as fucked as it may be, Donny...was right about something!
