Join me on my journey to finally unbalance my hormones, toxify my body, boost my inflammation, maximize my cortisol and absolutely destroy my gut health.
I just realized it's literally just the fucking humors again. We've arrived back at the starting line.

Saw this on Reddit: ORIGINAL POST
Just sos you knows, AO3 is down under a DDOS attack right now. They’ve been coming back in little blips and then disappearing again. It’s been several hours. (For reference, it’s currently 3 p.m. eastern, July 10, 2023.)
https://twitter.com/AO3_Status/status/1678468065070030856
The culprit (as with a few other DDOS attacks recently) is Anonymous Sudan, a group that is likely Russian, not Sudanese. The ‘reason’ they gave–that AO3 is “full of disgusting smuts and other LGBTQ+ and NSFW things,” is thin and probably not completely legit, though still legitimately concerning.
The AS claim: https://twitter.com/FalconFeedsio/status/1678397195039526912
Reporting on AS: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-06-28/anonymous-sudan-does-group-behind-microsoft-cyberattack-have-ties-to-russia (you can use archive.ph to get this one, 12ft doesn’t seem to work)
As noted here, https://twitter.com/honeyskeleton/status/1678449598703050769:
DDOS protection is expensive especially for a high traffic site like ao3. And it’s uniquely vulnerable as an independent site without ads or other corporate support. SPECIFICALLY targeted bc of its queer works and yet ppl will still complain every time they ask for donations lmao
So, again, when AO3 comes back online, please don’t go hard with refreshing all your tabs. Please do remember to download fics you love early and often as you continue in your whole ~reading journey~. And please do support AO3 through a dono or becoming a donating member, if it is possible for you to do so.
Update, about 6:50 p.m. eastern, July 10, 2023:
https://twitter.com/AO3_Status/status/1678536479578939392
A group presenting themselves as a collective of religiously and politically motivated hackers has claimed responsibility for the attack. Experts do not believe they are honest about their motivation, so we urge caution in believing any reasoning they provide for targeting AO3.
As part of our efforts to help keep the site up, you might find that you get “Retry later” errors more often when searching or filtering works or bookmarks. Don’t worry, just go a little slower, or try again in a few minutes! These are temporary measures.
They have not given the all-clear. Please go easy on the site if you use it right now. It would be preferable to give them some time and come back later. Check the official Twitter (https://twitter.com/AO3_Status) and Tumblr (https://ao3org.tumblr.com/, @ao3org). The Status Twitter is especially good about putting out consistent updates. They will give us an idea of when everything is getting back to normal.
Also extend props to your fellow fandom community members who volunteer their time to keep the site functional!! Tell ‘em you love ‘em!!
The trick is to not let people know how really weird you are until it’s too late for them to back out.
Absolutely the frak not, the trick is to immediately let people know how weird you are so you scare off the weak ones. The ones who stay because they like how weird you are? Those are the ones you want.

INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE cast with S01E07 director Alexis Ostrander
i get that for most people tragedy is just always gonna feel Bad to read and that informs a lot of bury your gays discourse but we must not forget that a lot of people sincerely enjoy writing and reading tragedy and queer audiences still deserve to have good tragedies written by and for them imo
like i hope i don't have to explain that there's a difference between a lovingly crafted tragic romance by a queer author featuring characters that represent them and a shitty tv show introducing a single gay character for brownie points then immediately killing them off for shock value
