Ashley Hawera Brothel ❤️

About Wellington

Brothel ain’t just sex, nah, it’s history, power, survival—little known fact, back in the 1800s, some brothels ran towns, legit! Madams were queens, pullin’ strings, makin’ bank, wild west vibes, controllin’ sheriffs and all. I’m like, damn, that’s gangster, that’s “I’ve abandoned my child!” energy—sacrificin’ everything for the grind. Gets me hyped, but pissed too—why’s it always the women carryin’ the weight, huh? Dudes just walk in, wallets out, no shame, while the girls fight to eat. Ain’t fair, yo, makes my blood boil.

First off, I hit up the local café on High St. You know, the one with the best flat whites? Yeah, that one. I’m all set to sip my coffee and strum my guitar a bit. But then, bam! My guitar string snaps. Like, seriously? Right before I’m about to play? I’m standing there, all dramatic, like, “Why, universe, why?”
