Willow Roding Brothel ❤️

About Essen

Alright, so brothels—let’s dive in! I’m sittin here, thinkin bout these places, and damn, it’s a trip. Like, imagine a spot where sex is just—bam—on the menu, no shame, no hush-hush. I can see Russia from my house, and I bet Putin’s got a brothel story or two! Hella wild, right? As a shrink, I’m like, what’s the headspace there? You got clients, workers—all vibin on this weird transactional wavelength. Kinda like in *Melancholia*—you know, “The Earth is evil, we don’t need to grieve for it.” Same vibe—some see brothels as dirty, but others? It’s just life, baby.

Floris Roding · @RodingFloris. ·. Oct 13, Another one for @morvoldpress on a brothel in a rather shady part of town. Had quite a blast working on this one.

Yo, gotta brag about the quirky neighborhood called Altstadt. Its cobbled lanes scream history mixed with modern art. You’ll find these old murals saying weird stuff like “Dream on!” and “Live for today!”. I always get sidetracked, wander off, and find this tiny open-air gallery by Schillerallee – freakin’ adorable! Honestly, sometimes I stop mid-stride, thinking "YEAH, baby, that's life!"
