Wouldnât it be funny if the final round of the tumblr sexyman poll was Sans vs Jesus⌠and Sans won? I think Iâd consider opening up that mini bible my aunt gave me for pride month in that case.
Whoâs sexier?
Sans Undertale
Jesus Christ

weirdly enough i think it's easier to accept non sexual nudity if you're a bit of a a pervert. like people think "boobs are too sexy, people can't be normal about them", and it seems like a compelling argument, boobs are sexy. but when you realise that other things are sexy as well, things like stomachs, thighs, feet, back muscles, and you can normal about them in a non sexual context, so there's no reason anyone can't be normal about any other part of the body.
happy birthday tim!
The rest of the thread is here.
tl;dr: Donât monetize AO3, kids. You wonât like what happens next.
read this thread. this is by far the most concise explanation of a lot of different issues that iâve seen in fandom spaces in a while. cosigning both the linked thread and the thread about aus/uk/can law thatâs linked in-thread.
AHDHXHEBSG TWITTER WRITERS DID WHAT NOW???? AND PEOPLE PAID THEM????
If someone has never taken a class that includes copyright law, they may not know this stuff, so I donât necessarily blame random people for not knowing what copyright is, but like⌠maybe just maybe itâs something that should be taught????
Just another reminder, because this always drives me crazy, but even if monetizing your fic was 100% unambiguously legal and protected, AO3 would still not let you do it because AO3 was founded and is supported by people like me who want a fandom community that is completely divested from making money off of fic.
Yes, this. Lots of fanworks on AO3 are unambiguously legal. Fics based on Shakespeare plays and fairy tales and Greek mythology and The Great Gatsby and your original character from your D&D game are not violations of copyright, because no copyright applies to those things.
AO3 still doesnât let you monetize those things on the site, because we donât want the site to be commercial! Because thatâs not what itâs for!
Itâs not there for you (generic you) to make money off the efforts of the people who build and maintain the site for free! We arenât getting paid for the work we do to give you a nice site to use, just like you arenât getting paid for the work you do to create whatever art you share there. Because fandom is supposed to be a community where we share with each other, and therefore we all benefit.
The deal is, we give you a free, stable, safe platform to host your works. In exchange, you get a site that isnât covered in ads and tip jars and links to gofundme and âread the next chapter at my patreonâ. You get one goddamn place on the internet that isnât trying to make money off you. And we will defend that space and keep it non-commercial.
If you want to make money off your fics, you can instead post them somewhere like royal Road. âOh, but Royal Roadâs culture is so much more negative and stressful and lacks the supportive norms of AO3!â Yeah, because people are trying to make money there. Half the userbase is treating it as a storefront and hustling is the natural social consequence of that. AO3âs culture can only exist because itâs not commercial.
About once a year this post picks up traction again. Thereâs a less-reblogged version with a full transcription, plus additional comments which address non-US copyright law such as âFair Dealingâ in Australia. To reiterate: Donât monetize AO3, kids. You wonât like what happens next.
Okay. I was on my beloved AO3 and I saw something that made me do a double take. So, now I really want to knowâŚ
What is your AO3 user ID?
Iâm an OG user 5 digits or less
Six figures baby!
Iâm in the millionsâŚ
Iâm so curious to see how long people have been on AO3! I know some people have been on there since beta/invite only, but I would love to see what the number is on tumblr!
What do you mean you donât need an invite anymore???

If this isn't a basil pesto review, I will be disappointed
None of you know how to read, which is cool
also at the end when they ask you "any questions?" and you can't think of anything: ask about parking. even if you don't have a car.
I have an interview today in a couple hours, how did the algorithm know I needed this
Btw when they ask if you have questions some actual good options are stuff like âwhatâs a typical day like in this roleâ or âis this job open because someone is leaving or is this a new positionâ
Another good question I stole from a reddit post that has really impressed all interviewers (two job offers!) is: "let's say you hire me and in a year you're thinking you made a really great choice. What will I have done to make you think that?"
It gets them talking about what they're looking for in the role, thinking about how you could fit it, and lets you end the interview getting to reiterate how good you would be for the role and how enthusiastic you are for it.
If you get the 'tell me about yourself' I've actually had at least one interview where they want to know about you as a person.
It might be worth asking them "Do you mean professionally, to get an idea of my work, or personally to see how I'll fit into the workplace culture?"
little known fact about me i was actually isekai'd into this world from the video game world. i used to be a peggle orb
peggle 1 or peggle 2?
peggle 1... peggle 2... who's to say... it was just 'life' back there... to me... to my fellow orbs.......
when the root of the tragedy was love.
the nasty trick is that making friends is pretty easy but managing to keep in touch with everyone is next to impossible
