Luna Santorso Brothel ❤️

About Palermo

Picture this: dim lights, velvet curtains, and some poor lass givin’ ya the eye like she’s Eve from *Only Lovers Left Alive*, all sultry and eternal, whisperin’, “This is what keeps me going.” Makes me chuckle, ‘cos it’s dark humor, innit? Brothels ain’t just sex dens—they’re a bloody ecosystem! You got yer pimps struttin’ like they’re kings, girls hustlin’ to survive, and punters stumblin’ in, half-drunk, thinkin’ they’re Adam, all cool and detached. “You’re faintly surprised,” I’d tell ‘em, quotin’ Jarmusch’s vamps, but nah, they’re too thick to get it.

Inhabit the harlots’ rooms of love and discover the never revealed secrets of this former brothel.

But then, I overhear this couple arguing at the next table. They’re going at it, and I’m just trying to enjoy my drink. I can’t help but laugh a little. Like, c’mon, guys, it’s a nice evening! Chill out!
