I'm Twittering--my Facebook imploded, and stuff people say to me at dive bars, take 1

I have been locked out of  my Facebook, and I am sad to say goodbye to 1500 fans--maybe many of you read this blog.  But, as one recent arts patron (an adorable techie who stands shorter than 5 ft) explained to me--Facebook has the rights to all your intellectual property, (I feel like I should have realized this before). Twitter seems like a much better use of my time. Not just to keep in touch with my erotic art friends and fans and patrons, but also to talk with other professionals, artists and advocates for people in the erotic arts/adult entertianment community.

So, look me up on Twitter, my little boyzenberries. https://twitter.com/ButtonsBerry

Oh, and I hope you understand that if you follow me on Twitter, you are more apt to see me getting involved in social justice discussions around adult industry/sex worker rights. Please understand, I am for client's rights too!

In other news, best comment made to me at a bar, of late:

The scene: An awesome Johhny Cash covers duo, father and son. They are old-timey Florida guys, each with  white hair, and a drawl. The elder, the dad, looks up at me, from where he is kneeeling over his guitar case and goes,

"Do you watch Orange Is the New Black?"

This is not what I expected to come outta this guy's mouth, so I just stare at him and smile for a minute.

He continues, "Whelp, cuz you look like that one inmate, the Italian one, she's real sweet and real cray--stalks her man."

I laugh, thank him and return to my table. His son ambles over, leans down to me and says, "Sorry about my dad, he has not been the same since Ma died."

The ladies I am with, librarian and sci-fi -writer types, immediately start Google image searching the character from that show and giggling.

This is actually one of the best dive bar comments I've had in a while. far better than, "Have you ever done it with a midget?' and "Are you a witch?"  (the latter in reference to my David Bowie eye).

Here's some pix in the mix. They have absolutely nothing to do with what I just blogged about and I will not pull a goofy hook to pretend they do. Though this is to say, this is not xxx "pink". It is live coral!
