reblog if you believe fanfics are as valid as books that were published and sold by authors who write as their main careers. I'm trying to prove a point

AO3 has been scraped, once again.
As of the time of this post, AO3 has been scraped by yet another shady individual looking to make a quick buck off the backs of hardworking hobby writers. This Reddit post here has all the details and the most current information. In short, if your fic URL ends in a number between 1 and 63,200,000 (inclusive), AND is not archive locked, your fic has been scraped and added to this database.
I have been trying to hold off on archive locking my fics for as long as possible, and I've managed to get by unscathed up to now. Unfortunately, my luck has run out and I am archive locking all of my current and future stories. I'm sorry to my lovelies who read and comment without an account; I love you all. But I have to do what is best for me and my work. Thank you for your understanding.
insane how sexism damaged how we research (and what we know about) animals. did you grow up being taught that only male birds sing? you may be entitled to financial compensation

Wait a minute?! You're a crafty little genie! You're will, aren't ya?!
…yes? I’m confused what does this mean 😭

Messaging people for the first time is so hard. What am I supposed to say? Like, "You seem really odd and your blog intrigues me. Do you want to have philosophical conversations or perhaps talk about fictional characters?" What! Whatever. I will just follow you back and stare at your blog with my big beautiful brown eyes.
widespread access to information and the archiving of otherwise lost media improves our opportunity and means to learn.
OC INTRO POST - TAMARUK
I'm back with this! this design is less developed, honestly, and it will change as the story goes!
extra notes:
his clothes are meant to somewhat resemble a school uniform. he's young and learning! the shorts are funny to me.
the grey in his hair is meant to remind the viewer of grey wolves' fur.
his greatest weakness would be his black-and-white view of the world and morality, so his palette is monochrome.
the hero complex goes hard on this one!!

On April 16th 2025 the US federal government has proposed to change the interpretation of the endangered species act so that it no longer protects habitat.
This is open for public comment until the end of May 19th. Please comment and make your voice heard.
Wildlife need their habitat. If the ESA redefines harm so that habitat is no longer protected, the implications for wildlife would be catastrophic.
i'm a zest fest with that catholic upbringing™ backstory but jesus was one cool dude. like, he defends a prostitute against a hoard of angry men, “let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.” (John 8:7)
if being who you are or loving somebody's a sin, it's one he'd have forgiven you for. yeah this isn't crazy knowledge; it wouldn't change minds, but here's some love in these trying times. don't let the news bring you down. the world isn't all evil.
do you want a relationship or do you just want to be happy(ier)?
hear me out.
sometimes when i hear ppl around me complain about how much they want a bf/gf/partner in general i often want to ask, "why exactly?"
because a lot of the time, at the core, people want a s/o to address some other thing in their life they want fulfilled. like it's more of just wanting companionship, someone to connect to, wishing to feel less lonely etc
i feel like this is worth thinking about bc often people will get into a relationship thinking it will solve this core issue they have, and when it doesn't it catches them off guard. like ur s/o is there to improve your overall quality of life, not solve your life problems for u--that's smth u need to work on urself. yes it will suck. but it will be worth it bc ull be a more well-rounded person!
i used to kinda wish i had a relationship myself, but as i met more ppl and made more friends that feeling went away and i realised i was really content with just my platonic relationships. bc at the root i really just wanted people i could truly connect to, people i could chat up whenever. and i got that when i built a good network of friends.
you don't need a romantic relationship to be happy. it's better to try to address these needs first instead of throwing it all upon the hypothetical partner to solve.
i think about this whenever i have that "i want a relationship" feeling again.
Dudes healthcare is so fake. My ADHD meds are $940 without insurance. But they gave me a website of "coupons" which straight up looks like a scam website, and I got it today for $60! Just a coupon from a random website and it was $900 cheaper. America, I am confusion!! America explain!!
