I swear browsers like to refresh a tab with a chapter at a specific point because the data trackers have intercepted my brainwaves and knew it'd piss me off if I lost my spot in the fic.

LET ME BE, DAMN IT, I'M TRYING TO READ HERE.

[corrupted-quartz]

Alright guys, you better lock in and start posting more fics on here because the storm is about to be here (ao3 being down for fifteen hours tomorrow).

[corrupted-quartz]

Totally didn't tear up (I made this toon when I was eleven).

“ao3 always receives more funds and donations than what they ask for” yeah that’s because people love a place that actually protects all fanfics, art and artists against censorship, purity culture and capitalism. shocking, I know

[allthingswhumpyandangsty]

things some people, especially people who are new to ao3 or fandom/fanfic space as a whole, seem to not understand:

archive of our own is an archive. not a social media.

archive of our own was built with the stance that there would be no censorship, because other platforms already had censorship where some things that were taboo were reported/removed. ao3 was built with the purpose that all of these works, that were not allowed on other platforms, would be allowed on ao3.

the archive will house anything that’s considered fanworks. so no, you cannot report this fic because it portrays in explicit details taboo topics about xyz, you cannot report that fic because it romanticizes and glorifies xyz. ao3 will not remove any of those fics, because whether or not you like it, those fics do not go against ao3’s terms of service.

“but these things are not allowed on other platforms” that’s precisely why ao3 was created, to house and give a platform to these things that were censored/banned/removed from other platforms.

if you have a problem with this, you can use other platforms to post and read fanfics

but you should also know that ao3 by far has the best tagging system, meaning you won’t get anything like what ao3 provides on other platforms, meaning it may be a pain in the ass for you to find a fic with the prompts and pairing you’re looking for, meaning you may still get jump scared by things that are triggering to you half way through your reading of what you thought was an innocent fic. because other platforms don’t have tagging systems, where you can find and avoid any character/pairing/tag as you please, like ao3.

a reminder that ao3 was created as an archive. not a social media.

ao3 is run on fans’ donations. it’s a nonprofit organization, run by fans, for fans. it has no ads. no capitalism or algorithm bullshit.

ao3 allows works that depict all kind of taboo, morally questionable, disgusting, socially unacceptable subjects, no matter how graphic, how explicit it is being portrayed (that’s what tags, warnings and ratings are for!).

ao3 does not have censorship, nor does ao3 allow censorship.

additionally, it is literally unethical to censor an archive!!

"Friend" is an AI wearable device designed to provide "companionship + emotional support"— i.e replace human friendships. Its literally an AI chatbot that you wear around your neck. "Friend" just paid for the largest ad campaign in NYC subway history

And Every. Single. Poster was vandalised, it literally looks like some of the most beautiful art you have ever seen

they should make a version of socializing that doesn’t make you feel like you’re still the weird 12 year old kid that doesn’t know why she’s not normal like the other kids

When things start going to shit I just rebuy my Animal Jam membership.

[corrupted-quartz]

In agony because what do you mean my friends are all moving away for university? What do you mean they're leaving? They're just a bus ride away. They're going to come over and watch stupid television and play card games and we're going to complain about A-Levels. Nothing changed. Nothing happened. No one is leaving.

(CRASHING OUT BIG TIME BUT IM PROUD OF MY FRIENDS).
