Reblog if you're hoping 2011 will be a fresh start.

Hey! Just a reminder! AO3 does NOT have an app. This garbage was made by theives who steal fan artist’s work and sell it back to you.

“Oh, but it’s free!” There are ads. They are making money off of this. They are stealing from the creators you love and you are hurting those same creators if you use this app or any similar app.

Don’t use it. Report it at every opportunity.

[halfmouse]

There is no such thing as an Archive of Our Own (AO3) app! If there are ads, that’s a bad sign! Please refrain from using one of these unofficial apps! Just use your browser!

These apps are harmful to AO3 and its users! Part of the whole point of fanfiction is that it’s purely for the entertainment and mental enrichment of authors and readers, not monetized. It’s legal because it’s transformative and non-monetized. It’s fun because it’s driven by passion and not by money.

These apps likely have a lower quality of experience than the official website! I’ve never been on them, but I do know that the volunteers running AO3 put a lot of work into organization (tag-wrangling), customization (allowing the different site skins and such), and generally ensuring a smooth experience for authors and readers alike. They don’t shove ads in your face, and they allow you to access exactly what you want to. I highly doubt that these apps do any of that.

These apps are likely to benefit generative AI! Remember that huge scrape a while ago? I do. *insert thousand-yard stare* Can we please stop feeding the ocean-sucking, art-stealing nonsense machine!?

If those reasons aren’t good enough for you, well, how about the fact that these apps take up space on your phone or tablet for no good reason and might even give your device malware!? I don’t know for sure if there’s malware, but I wouldn’t exactly be surprised if they did. Basic cybersecurity tip: don’t just trust every single application.

Here’s the what the app looks like in the App Store:

Reviews complain about the lack of the ability to comment on fics and intrusive ads. There’s other apps like this on the App Store (obviously) but this one decided to advertise on tumblr (of all places).

Also this from the infographics:

Also!

Also the subscriptions. (From the info page)

You make free things. People don’t need to pay to see it offline. It’s text.

Why aren’t the cities that they are trying to build these facilities in refusing to issue building permits and condemning these buildings and not providing water, electricity and gas to these buildings? No water, no power, no gas = no facility. Stop them from moving forward.

[anarchistmemedistro]

because local and state governments aren’t just complicit they are active collaborators. cities and states bid for these contracts.

For God’s Sake Love Yourself

By the way the enemy wants transmascs, transfems, and nonbinary people fighting with each other. By the way they want us to believe there is no community to be found within each other. By the way I've never met a trans woman In real life who is openly hostile to trans men and trans mascs in fact I've only found community with them. By the way the trans community is the most loving community ive ever seen. I'm sure there are some of us out there who truly hold contempt for other people under the trans umbrella but I've been in quite a few trans spaces and never met one. Trans people, by and large, love each other, take care of each other, and form long lasting friendships with each other.

They want us to see the hate more than the love. They want to divide us. Please don't let them.

thats my home

you can see the atmosphere. that halo around the edge, that's my air. the green on the upper right is my aurora borealis. those are my clouds, my sunlight.

and its yours! this is your home. this is the home of everyone you ever heard of and everyone you will ever meet. every animal you've been curious about. every plant you've ever picked, and sniffed. its mine and its yours and its theirs. everything is here. its all that i have. its all that you have too.

That is why we need to protect and fight for her!

An indigenous student just posted on the university subreddit asking why everyone is always making fun of the land acknowledgments on campus bc it makes them feel like shit :(

and ppl were like “cuz it feels performative it’s not like they are giving back land or anything to help” and the student was like “actually we have a full tuition waver for indigenous students” and a bunch of people were like “oh I didn’t know that. well the land acknowledgment doesn’t say that so how should we have known” and like HELLO that is EXACTLY the problem—that no one on this campus pays any attention to Indigenous people!!!!

Someone else claimed “actually [the nation whose land we are on] got a pretty good deal so I think it’s kind of silly” and someone else was like “they were literally ethnically cleansed and forcibly removed over 5 times in 50 years and had to sneak back on trains and buy back their land with their own money” and then the other person was like “oh nvm my bad”

I’m not saying I want everyone here to have to take a native studies class because I have taught the 101 class with 250 students and I do not want to make it any bigger jfc but also THIS IS EXACTLY THE PROBLEM

reblog if you think sign language should be taught as a language in schools.

Let's see and use nature as only a recourse to satisfy our greed (which is infinite)

I just had this crazy dream where Jay was Superman, or something like that. He worked as a ninja, but he also had Kryptonian powers, and he hid that from everyone else. It was the most random thing ever.

It actually makes sense that I dreamed about this, since Starfarer and the fact that Jay was adopted by Ed and Edna remind me a lot of that vibe. I always thought Edna and Ed resembled Superman's adoptive parents.
