Zola’s story here is a string of tweets about this wild story where these two girls, both sex workers, go to Florida for a weekend and it’s just… just read it. It’s absolutely wild.

And people on tumblr (and on tumblr only, I’ve noticed) are flipping out because “this story isn’t funny, it’s about sex workers, sex working isn’t funny” and it’s like.. that ain’t what’s funny about it. The way the story is told, so casually and with side comments from the author is what makes it funny. But teenagers on this website, with no concept of anything, are like “THIS STORY TALKS ABOUT SEX WORKERS! IT’S NOT FUNNY AT ALL! SEX WORK IS NOT FUNNY!” And while they are correct, sex work isn’t funny, THAT’S NOT WHAT THE MAIN FOCUS OF THE STORY IS. THAT’S NOT WHY PEOPLE THINK IT’S FUNNY. And some people on this website can’t grasp the concept that while a story contains serious undertones/topics, it can still be humorous.
