When You Try To Consume A Media But It Consumes You Instead:

Genuinely wish we could go back to that time in fandom where creators and fandoms just left each other alone. Please. For the love of god.

I’m sick of people demanding constant answers and information from creators about things that don’t need answers or further information. I’m sick of people using fucking Word of God tweets in their shitty fandom discourse as an excuse to call someone a sexual predator. I’m sick of creators going onto fandom posts and basically telling fans that they’re wrong for interpreting/interacting with content in a certain way. I’m sick of creators giving any opinions on fandom ships at all.

I’m just tired of it. I’m done. We need those boundaries back.

In case anyone is having a bad night:

Here is the fudgiest brownie in a mug recipe I’ve found

*tucks you in with fuzzy blanket* *pats your head*

You’ll be okay, friend <3

genuinely wild to me when I go to someone's house and we watch TV or listen to music or something and there are ads. I haven't seen an ad in my home since 2005. what do you mean you haven't set up multiple layers of digital infrastructure to banish corporate messaging to oblivion before it manifests? listen, this is important. this is the 21st century version of carving sigils on the wall to deny entry to demons or wearing bells to ward off the Unseelie. come on give me your router admin password and I'll show you how to cast a protective spell of Get Thee Tae Fuck, Capital

Guys I know we all love AO3 for hosting our fanfiction, and the OTW for defending our right to create it. But please remember that they can only do so as long as the fanfiction is shared for free.

I know a lot of writers (and artists) will do fic commissions or submissions to fanzines (free and paid). But you cannot mention the fic was paid for on Ao3. This includes for charity drives where the writers don't keep anything! Ao3 staff has stated this explicitly in the past.

And please, please, do not run a charity drive or zine where the recipient of the proceeds is Ao3/OTW. You are publicly exposing them to legal attack for funding them by selling fanworks! You can't even mention that you do that on Ao3, do not then make a paper trail right to them!

And keep any mention of your paid work off your Ao3. No links to commissions or patreons or ko-fis or notes that the work was commissioned, or even links to author stores of unrelated books. All of these are prohibited by Ao3 itself in order to protect fan creators and their works.

Fanworks for profit is a sticky legal place, don't make the OTW's job of defending us harder or even impossible by paying them with fanwork proceeds.

nothing in the world makes me more evil than just being kind of annoyed

just wanted a visual demonstration since I was talking about how much I love them
