I love this but anyone got a link to a site that isn’t paywalled or doesn’t force me to disable my ad blocker?

Weird. It didn't paywall me. You could try clearing your cookies or using 12ft.io. (12ft.io sometimes works for me.)

Honestly, I just vaguely remembered hearing about that experiment and when this post came up I googled (well, DuckDuckGo'd, but anyway) "monkey money experiment prostitution" and picked the first link that seemed to be about the experiment I'd remembered hearing about.
