Not only is the Rashida Jones Black Mirror episode HORRIFYING/traumatizing, it’s got more holes than a mesh strainer and it’s shitty to paint gig/sex workers in that light. Total let down. Do better.

1. He’s a welder, that’s a job that’s insanely in demand. He could have gotten another the next day
2. Why didn’t she disclose her disability to her employee so they could accommodate?
3. Why didn’t he tell his colleagues or literally ANYONE about his wife’s situation? We’re supposed to believe
…these sweet seeming people had zero community?
4. Why didn’t they contact a lawyer the moment she started speaking ads? That’s a class action lawsuit any class action firm would drool over
5. Why did he immediately jump to “DumDummies,” aka OnlyFans, and don’t even get me started on the
SEX WORKER SHAMING they depicted
6. She was the love of his life and he didn’t bother to read the contract in regards to an experimental procedure? She never pressured him in terms of timing, it would have taken an hour—she was in a medically induced coma, pretty basic ask
I see how DumDummies is based on OnlyFans but I think the intent was to make an evil OF that could go horrifically mainstream. Still, I see your point.
It would be cool to see a Black Mirror episode about online sex work that's nuanced, though I imagine it would come out overly weird.
