I am friends with him on Facebook and he does A LOT of complaining. Takes every little thing that happens to him and brings it to the Internet for his fans and the like to weigh in on, oftentimes presented as a humblebrag.
Also seems kind of conservative.

Porn stars who have functional lives are nearly non-existent. The only ones I've heard of who aren't totally fucked up in some way only do it once in a great while to get their exhibitionist rocks off.

I’m not linking it because it’s gross, but he’s worked with “Fun Sized Boys.” Looks like an Austin Woolf shoot there towards the end.
They do this in straight porn as well with small young women.

R9 - yes, I've seen him in Palm Springs several times too. I thought he used to live with a couple.
I saw him at Albertsons furiously scrubbing a scratch-off and getting pissed off that he didn't win.
He seems desperate - seriously - in the article he talks about how financially strapped he is. He also sounds like he had a very rough childhood and a lot of trauma.
I feel bad for him - and he's much thinner than what appears in pictures - but that's entertainment. You've got to be fit and thin to look good in pics.

He was kicked out of his last house by his other boyfriend. He had to move into subsidized housing where he would drive his other boyfriend to the bus so he could commute to a job at Walmart.

He's the one who used to be a newscaster in Dallas, and he was out. I've forgotten his name, but he was cute back then. We had friends in common. I think he was a little self-obsessed then as well.

One thing that jumped out to me from his interview… the man says he has TEN bionic/artificial body parts. And the 11th coming up, his 2nd shoulder replacement.
That is a huge number. Why? He’s old but not that old (he’s 55).
And what would be the total cost? And who ends up paying?

Correction, he says he has *13* bionic body parts. Plus the 2nd shoulder replacement coming up.

He could have some addiction to getting surgery and various body part replacements. Someone of that age should not need all of that.

He has a young boyfriend. Look at the article at OP - it contains their photo. He has 2 jobs: store manager and porn. He claims he makes on $3,000 per month on porn. The BF has a job, but it doesn't sound like a high-paying job.

R41 Yep, I now remember during the pandemic he was posting his "pearls of wisdom" rants in the Gay Men of Palm Springs Facebook group. He's one of many who I think the pandemic gave a mental breakdown from which they've never recovered (see also: Kari Lake). From what I recall of those rants, he sounded equal measures of nasty, entitled, and perhaps more than a little mentally unstable.
One incident I recall is his dramatic defense of the owner/manager at Tropicale (another huge, entitled local asshole, btw) for running their restaurant while skirting various distancing / masking protocols. Two entitled jerks who think only their needs and preferences matter, and that they know better than state and federal public health officials who've dedicated their lives to science and public service and were simply making good faith recommendations to help keep people safe, alive, and off ventilators in ERs. Yeah, sure...I'll ignore Fauci and take the word of a mouthy, self-sabotaged local news has-been turned body dysmorphic porn amateur. GTFOH. 🙄😷

I assume r47 is trolling us with his "robust" attack on "skirting .... protocols". Even Gavin Newsom knew those were bullshit and had his dinner parties and sent his kids to private schools while he shut public schools down. If Dallas Steele saw through that bullshit (like Newsom did and R47 didn't), then it's to his credit.
