SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Yesterday, California Governor Gavin Newsom signed into law Assembly Bill 5 (AB 5), a sweeping piece of legislation that rewrites the state’s employment law to address the status of independent contractors, including dancers at strip clubs.

The bill passed the legislature last week and was sold to voters as a possible answer to 21st-Century issues like the “gig economy,” corporate use (and abuse) of “perma-lancers” and ways in which employers get around labor protections by deceitfully characterizing some workers’ status.

On a recent episode of his podcast, Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson, Mike Tyson told rapper Jim Jones that he consumes about $40,000 of cannabis per month at Tyson Ranch, his future cannabis “resort.” As Jim’s mind is blown by this number, Eben Brriton, Tyson’s co-host, follows this up by saying that they smoke 10 tons of weed per month.

“Part of our mission is to make sure the majority of clip-sale profits go into the hands of the people making the content.” — John Ruskin

Being great on cam requires a broad skill set, one that takes time and effort to cultivate. Similarly, being a master clips maker also requires a broad — but considerably different — skill set, one that takes time and effort to cultivate. For cam models looking to incorporate clips into their content repertoires, the idea of taking on a whole new type of content producing may seem daunting — but it doesn’t have to be.
