Brianna Coppage said she made $1 million on the platform, which she was using to supplement her teaching salary.

Had to supplement her $42,000 per year teacher salary with OF and made nearly $1 million in six months (almost 50 times as her salary) before the school caught wind of it and forced her to resign. Got a new job out of education and was fired five days later when they discovered news articles about her.

Edit: To those basically saying she had it coming because she made her OF account public…

  1. Sex work is real, valid work.
  2. There is nothing wrong with sex work. Sex-shaming is Puritanical horseshit.
  3. “But her students could find her OF!” is a problem their parents should have to solve. It is not her responsibility to use an alias, because of points 1 and 2.
  4. Every other argument criticizing her for her sex work during her non-teaching hours is fucking moot.

      I will cherish our conversations forever and hold onto them tightly during those lonely moments when there’s no one around to offer such valuable perspectives. I will never forget the impact you’ve had on my life.

      Take care and good luck.

        I’ve tagged you in my Lemmy app so I’ll know to not interact with you because you’re a condescending fraud. Good riddance

          I feel like I just won the lottery! Being blocked by someone as esteemed and illustrious as yourself is an honor beyond measure. In fact, I believe this is the pinnacle of my social media career. I mean, how many people can brag about getting banned by none other than YOU? Seriously, I couldn’t think of a better endorsement than having my name permanently etched into your block list. From now on, whenever anyone asks me what success looks like, I will proudly point to this moment as proof of my achievements. So once again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for bestowing upon me this most coveted prize.

              Wasting precious minutes conversing with self-proclaimed intellectuals and moral titans—what a thrilling way to squander one’s day! What larks await us mere mortals amidst such lofty discourse! Surely, no better purpose exists than indulging these sublime beings with our undivided attention.

                  Oh, really? I hadn’t noticed that my intelligence was being evaluated by someone who thinks that insults and baseless accusations are an acceptable form of debate. I must have been too busy using my “non-clever” brain to come up with original ideas and engage in thoughtful conversations to notice. But thank you for your valuable input, I will be sure to take it into consideration the next time I need advice on how to be a close-minded brute. Or better yet, maybe you could share some tips on how to effectively silence differing viewpoints through intimidation instead of reasoned argument. Now THAT sounds like a useful skill!
