Trotsky and his damn....fuckin.....legacy...30 years after he died

@user-457329878: out of context without any sense of irony, this is the most boomer sounding sentence I've ever read.

Episode 224 - Cortez the Killer feat. Trevor Beaulieu and Katherine Krueger (7/2/18)

Will and Virgil talk to writer, podcaster and sex workers' rights advocate Conner Habib and Tai, a self-described "whore of all trades". They discuss sex workers' labor issues, the atrocious SESTA/FOSTA bill, various models of sex work decriminalization, and why you can no longer use phrases like "lusty hands" on certain web forums.
