Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Has anyone read Burlesque and the Art of the Teese / Fetish and the Art of the Teese by Dita Von Teese and Bronwyn Garrity? Any good?

I have it. It's very pretty. The writing is on the frothy/fluffy side of girly, but it's a lot of fun. Of course, every time I look through it, I am overcome with the urge to start gluing Swavorski crystals onto things, but that may just be me.

Coding and Sleeping

And then they'll take over the world and dispose of humanity?

I read it in B&N, and quite liked it. It is a bit fluffy, but sumptuous to read.

One of the local big name burlesque women teaches a burlesque exercise class. One of these days I'll get my ass up on a Sunday and go.

Always Anti-fascist!

I'm sort of a net addict. But I have little money and no hope of proficiency with firearms. Life had to give me something. "I was thinking of developing a drug problem, but that would be stupid."

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

That looks uncanny valley creepy, to me.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
