Sometimes on Lemmy these seem like the only jobs that actually exist, but I'm sure there's a lot of people here with different and unusual lines of work.

I do cosplay erotica for a living. I make awesome costumes, I take them off, and just post to Patreon. I suppose it's kindof retail, as I'm giving the photos to people, as a reward for subscribing, but I set my own schedule and choose what goes out. The freedom is incredible

First, good on you. As a corpo wage slave who would not be good at either dressing up or removing said dressing, color me envious.

Second, any particular fandom pay the bills better than others?

Now that I'm asking I realize I probably don't actually want to know.

I specialize in powerful/domme energy characters, because unless you look like a little girl, you don't make money off the sweet/girl next door characters.

My most popular are Lady Dimitrescu (Resident Evil), Cammy (StreetFighter), Mad Moxxi (Borderlands), so video games, win!

Oh, and Velma... my most subscribers ever were for that set, but I shot with a porn star and it was my first girl on girl set. 😅

Oh shit I straight up did not scroll far enough lmao I saw many words and skimmed for a link for like 3 swipes and felt bamboozled.
