Here’s the thing: authors know when they get a rec on an older story. There’s a telltale uptick of kudos (with a 10-15% comment rate if you’re lucky) in your digest email.

The thing is, there’s no way to know where these people are coming from. In the before, when fandom was more in the corners we all knew about, you could search LJ or a message board or whatever social bookmarking site we were using. You could join the community and participate.

You could get a little dopamine hit by seeing someone tell their friends why they loved your story.

Anymore, those recs are hidden in discords, or in tiktoks or instagram slideshows that you can’t search for. They’re inaccessible, not discoverable unless you’re already there. You may never know why 27 people left kudos on an old story of yours, what they liked and found in your writing. You just get the thumbs up and a kinda lonely feeling, cause these could be your people. You could like them, maybe. You could be friends.

But you’ll never find out why they stopped by, or what people are saying about you behind your back, and that’s sad.

So thank you to the people who still do public rec lists on this webbed site. You are my sunshine, and I’m appreciative of all of you.

Fun fact: due to the ongoing financial support from the people of tumblr, critically endangered pygmy raccoons being rehabbed in Cozumel are now able to get vaccines for deadly diseases like distemper and rabies before they are released.

The funniest and most enduring legacy of dashcon.

For me a big part of “sex work is work” is that sex work should be socially viewed as totally legitimate work. I should be able to put sex work on my resume. I should be able to lean on the skills and knowledge I gain in this field and have that experience be respected. Right now I have a gap in my resume. But I’m also consistently doing advertising, social media management, inventory, merchandising, customer service, upselling!!! I’m working self directed, I’m solely responsible for every aspect of my business. I deserve respect, fuck.

"don't post that, what if an employer sees?" personally i think employers need to stay the fuck off their employees' social media lmao

[vanguard]

young old person tip for you all. go get some photos printed (pauses so someone can say bogos binted) and fill out a physical album

[sayaratyriea]

and annotate them with who is in the photos and when and where the photos were taken!!! your extended family 50 years from now will be grateful, and so will you if you end up forgetting any details

[mortimermcmirestinks]

Actually when you apply for a job at Sesung guild they checked if you're

1. Blonde

2. Has at least one homoerotic tension situationship

If you fulfill these two criteria you'll instantly be hired and promoted.

God, what I'll do to know what happened between these two. Moon Hyuna who really gets along with everyone and especially close with another female hunter with the exception of Evelyn and this hatred is entirely one sided because Evelyn can't really help but like her. The part where they fought is so charged I would need to make another post to really describe it hmmmmmmmmm

Margalit Oved, Yemenite Jewish dancer, choreographer, singer, actress, and musician. Oved left an indelible mark on twentieth-century Jewish culture through her inventive and modern interpretations of ancient biblical tales utilizing influences from the Yemen of her childhood, the Israel of her adolescence, and the Los Angeles of her adulthood. Women have long been at the forefront of preserving Jewish community dance practices and traditions, particularly from diasporas that were violently dispersed and no longer exist or are dangerously dwindling, as Oved herself was forced to flee Yemen as a child after the Aden pogroms of 1949. Read more about her here.

we have to thank our brave soldiers in fandom who write gen fics. we have to thank our brave soldiers in fandom who write character studies and stories with no focus on romance or sex. we have to get on our knees and thank the brave soldiers in fandom who write about minor characters and friendship and family with no focus on romance or sex. i know it’s hard to care about characters in a world that seems to only revolve around ships but i see you. and i love you
