One of the stranger tricks history plays on us is repetition. We like to think we have left certain eras behind, that we have grown beyond the old hierarchies that shaped earlier civilizations. We imagine ourselves living in a world that is enlightened, democratic, and fundamentally different from the rigid societies of the past. Yet the deeper you look, the more familiar the modern landscape begins to feel. The lords never really disappeared. They simply changed their clothes.

People imagine OnlyFans as a woman and her phone—a bedroom, a ring light, a few messages, and a stream of adoring fans. They think it’s raw, unfiltered, spontaneous. But that’s a fantasy. OnlyFans is a factory. Every pixel, every emoji, every “good morning” is engineered to extract money from loneliness.

Alright, let’s just call it what it is—professional bodybuilding is not healthy.

I’m not saying lifting weights is bad for you. Weight training? Awesome. Eating protein? Great. Building muscle? Fantastic. But that’s not what we’re talking about when we talk about the pros. We’re talking about the freak-show level of the sport—the guys and women on stage at the Olympia looking like they were carved out of marble by a Greek god who had access to a pharmacy.

Before being sentenced you will probably be in a holding cell with some Numbers (South Africa’s largest prison gang). In the morning they will ask everyone to stand in a circle while the highest ranking number stands in the middle.

You don’t join a cult. Not really. You don’t wake up one day and say, “You know what sounds good? Renouncing my identity, surrendering my bank account, and apologizing to a charismatic stranger for having a favorite color.”

What happens instead is much weirder. And much more normal. You get invited to something.
