Paige, Popbitch, Photography

Porn star Gia Paige – ranked 39 on Pornhub – weighed in on Popbitch’s baboon vs badger debate. Non-sequitur of the year: I’m trying to brush up on photography at the moment. I’ve had a few night-time trips to Manchester. I really must get to the Northern Quarter in the weekend daytime soon. I’m really beginning to notice how the role of a photographer separates you from everyone else, dissociates you, leaves you half wanting to be a ghost. You don’t want to be noticed so that the people around you act naturally. It half reminds me of school, not fitting in, speaking to virtually no-one for whole chunks of time. I’ve done a lot of wandering around, and ventured into I think 3 bars this weekend. There’s not much going on though. People are very civilised, on the whole, these days. It isn’t like the days of the 2000s where people would get hammered and leather each other all the time. People seem to know better. Hence, there isn’t much to photograph.
