(Joseph Beirce in jail) Joseph Beirce is currently broken hearted and formerly a male escort. Here’s what he has to say: >  Why am I writing this? I’m not just an animal. I’m not just flesh and bone and blood and semen. Maybe I don’t have emotions, I have emotional energy. I need to keep that [...]
