Something that I think is particularly interesting (and that is not immediately obvious from the post) is that the author used to do porn, and is considering doing it again. She's written about how that really fucks with your self-image, the experience of online stalkers/harassers, and also how porn basically saved her from homelessness at one point – and that she really enjoys making it. She's intimately familiar with the power – and costs – of The Thing.
