    I don't think people who create adult content should be excluded. It's a valid job which — like streaming, painting, or any other online content creation — just isn't for everyone.…

    I'd argue that there's a difference in what colors appear "unappealing" between print and screen. Staring directly into a bright, magenta-colored screen would certainly be unpleasa…

    I use an online service called JustWatch that searches through all of the platforms at once. Huge time saver.
