<p>Margaret Gel&#8217;s Discount Whorehouse (y Carnicería) is officially <em>closed</em>. I&#8217;m not going to pretend that I know when it was first <em>started</em>, but it was something like November 23rd, 2023. Ostensibly, it lasted a long time.</p>



<p>I have closed this for a few reasons that I&#8217;d like to make public.</p>



<ol class="wp-block-list">
<li>A.I. Art has moved so far ahead of me that I genuinely cannot keep up, nor do I want to. People have come to me and told me that I was the one who got them started in this, and they have <em>all</em> gotten better at this than I am. Most of them were better than me a month after they got started. I simply do not have the tools to continue to do this, nor would I even continue this, as, to put it quite simply, I don&#8217;t feel like fucking around with this anymore. There&#8217;s largely no point left to it, either, as everybody else is better than me at it.</li>



<li>In America, the thing about hosting porn is that it&#8217;s both very expensive (I&#8217;m beginning to pull something like a gig <em>per day</em> of traffic, and sometimes it gets <em>really bad</em>), <em>and</em> the laws are constantly changing. At one point in time, Rotten dot com had porn on their website. The laws changed, and they had to remove it. (At some point, a site called &#8220;The Gaping Maw&#8221; had <em>bestiality</em> on it, if I can remember correctly. <em>That</em> had to be <em>removed</em>.) My problems are much less than theirs are, and mine are entirely <em>not</em> self-inflicted. I have no desire to catch a lawsuit <em>or something</em> because the hillbilly politicians in Yankeeland have decided that anime tiddy is <em>verboten</em>. Already, Pornhub is illegal in several states, though those laws are being overturned by judges in their right mind(s). All it would take is one judge <em>not</em> in his right mind, and I don&#8217;t <em>need</em> that kind of trouble right now (as I&#8217;m currently taking care of my mother, who has cancer).</li>



<li>I have no great desire to be a &#8216;pornographer&#8217;. It&#8217;s not exactly that I fear the public, nor fear being in the public eye. I am nearly 40 years old and my life is changing, and I am more-interested in being left alone and not raising the stakes of my life by presenting unprotected loose ends that other people can pick up. I want to grow tomatoes, fix electrical issues, and become more fit. I have no great desire to give people things to jerk their fucking dicks off to.</li>
</ol>



<p>If this disappoints you, I understand. I, too, have often asked why artists would pull down all their work, and I know the pain of losing some of these things. I don&#8217;t want that for you.</p>



<p>Occasionally I&#8217;ll probably get a &#8216;wild hair&#8217; (Gods, I <em>hate</em> that term) and post some of it again. Keep in mind, however, that, in my time, I generated <em>over 100,000 images</em>. Some of these, you may never see again. Others, perhaps.</p>



<p>That&#8217;s it.</p>



<p>The other thing is, the Coppermine Image Gallery system seems to draw <em>lots</em> of fucking robots, and <em>boy</em> do they want inside my server&#8217;s <em>ass</em>. No thanks, Samuel!</p>



<p>Later.</p>



<p><strong><em>Margaret Gel&#8217;s Discount Whorehouse (y Carnicería)</em></strong><br>~October 28th, 2023 &#8212; July 6th, 2024 (<strong>252</strong> days)</p>



<hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Addendum</h2>



<p>One thing, more than <em>anything</em>, that I want to <em>say</em>, is that I fell behind because pornography is the thing that leads technology in the human world. If you&#8217;re not killing each other, it&#8217;s sex. It&#8217;s <em>this</em>.</p>



<p>And I <em>knew</em> that. I <em>knew</em> that. And I wasn&#8217;t interested in it. I am not interested in <em>trying</em>. I have tried too long, and I have gotten not the distance that I <em>expected</em>. I will not try anymore.</p>



<p>I would have had to prostitute myself to even get anywhere, and even <em>those</em> people got <em>nowhere</em>. I&#8217;ve watched the rise (and fall!) of sexual V-Tubers, these people who are, pretty much, going from emotional prostitutes to just regular-ol&#8217; prostitutes. And while there&#8217;s nothing wrong with being a prostitute (believe me, I&#8217;ve been there), I don&#8217;t intend on selling <em>anything</em> of me, <em>ever</em> again.</p>



<p>And that&#8217;s what this <em>is</em>. It doesn&#8217;t help that my first image that I made, it got <em>stolen</em>, and the person got <em>7,000</em> followers off of it. Those should have been <em>for me</em>.</p>



<p>But it never was. It never happened. And, now, posting all of this <em>porn</em>, there&#8217;s no point to it.</p>



<p>God help you if you&#8217;re anyone who draws anything but the biggest-titted women <em>imaginable</em>. They&#8217;re <em>so</em> after lolisho artists that there was porn I did, hentai I made, where the woman had normal-sized breasts, and wide fucking hips, and I was afraid to post it because <em>you never fucking know who&#8217;s going to come to take your head off because they think that everything anime is &#8216;loli</em>&#8216;.</p>



<p>I guess that&#8217;s <em>sad</em>. But I wanted to see the inside of this&#8212; this was but another mountain that I wanted to <em>climb</em>.</p>



<p>And now I&#8217;m here. Or, rather, I <em>was</em> there.</p>



<p>On to something <em>else</em>.</p>



<p>Or maybe not!</p>



<p><strong>Addendum 2:</strong> I wrote this as I was going through the website, and, damn, I actually made some good fuckin&#8217; art.</p>



<p>Still, it&#8217;s going down.</p>



<p>I don&#8217;t fuckin&#8217; need a gig being pulled from this server every single day.</p>



<p>Before you say, &#8216;well, why not accept money for it?&#8217;&#8212; again, don&#8217;t wanna become a <em>pornographer.</em> Think about the laws that America has set up. I don&#8217;t want MasterCard up my ass.</p>
