fanfiction culture is when you don’t wanna tell people you write fanfic but you do want to talk about writing, so you just say, “oh yeah, sometimes I write little short stories here and there!”

[blueeyedjaguar-deactivated20200]

Me: oh yeah I write some short stories sometimes just for fun

Friend: Ooooh can I see???🤩🤩🤩

Me: nO

REBLOG if you want NSFW anons

[nycs]

Muslims are being denied citizenship in India. Concentration camps are getting built for them as you are reading this. In China, they’re already in concentration camps with their organs getting illegally harvested. While they endure that torture, muslims in the UK are getting harassed by islamaphobes and told they look like letter boxes. In France, Muslim women cannot wear headscarves in school or on the beach. In the United States, they’re getting called terrorists and murderers with bans being placed on them. They cannot even “escape” to their homelands with almost all Muslims fleeing a state of chaos and war. All this and yet Muslims are seeing silence from politicians and governments. Silence from the people. Silence from the world. Silence.

THE REBUTAL

“Did you know that a man CAN’T get a woman pregnant without having an orgasm? Which means that we can conclude getting a woman pregnant is a pleasurable act for men.”

I hooked up with this dude several times without a condom because I was wearing the IUD. But before I got it, I consulted with him if I should get it or not, because we had been having unprotected sex and I had had to pay for pregnancy tests like 2 times (he knew I had to pay for those, and he never offered to pay for at least half of each). He literally said he wasn’t sure if I should get it, because he ‘kinda wanted to impregnate me with his child.“

I got scared, man. Getting me pregnant was really getting him off. And I was scared shitless of ever getting pregnant and him not becoming responsible of it at all. And I knew, that if I ever got pregnant, he wouldn’t lift a fucking finger to help me get an abortion, let alone take care of the child if I ever decided to have it. He would just disappear, and find another woman to impregnate her with his kid. Men really are scary.

Looking at this makes me so tired.

[synclaires-deactivated20181208]

Every year, multiple times a year, they convince ppl to fork out thousands of dollars and….literally nothing changes. There’s no doubt in my mind they’re pocketing most of this money lol

[nutheadgee-deactivated20190314]

Yep

[bihet-dragonize]

That’s what’s so wild to me. They’ve made exactly 0 changes other than adding the ‘Exclude’ tags and that def doesn’t take 130k.

[nonegenderwithleftbees]

You know if any of you actually bothered to click the link it’ll take you to their budget update and break down exactly what the spend the money on, over 70% of which is spent on server expenses, monitoring tools and system licences.

They also spent a good amount of the rest of the 30% budget on significant server overhaul costs. 

AO3 is literally a service you get for free and the audacity you’d have to not bother reading the very open budget plan they have, but to then bitch and whine about people donating to keep the site running is wild.

[alexenglish]

reminder that AO3 

hosts millions and millions of fanfiction at no cost to site users

hosts millions and millions user accounts at no cost to site users

is an extremely high traffic site that rarely, if ever, experiences crashes

is an extremely high traffic site that could profit immensely off ads, but keeps the entire site free of ads

maintains a consistent and elaborate tagging system that allows users easy navigation through fanworks

maintains a simple layout structure so the entire site is easy to read, easy to navigate, and easy to understand making it highly accessible to users – especially disabled users

maintains and updates the budget for users to know exactly where their donations are going to be used in the future and have been used in the past

works with the legal aspects of fanworks in order to keep their site and their users completely legal, and therefore not at risk of being shut down, or sued, or manipulated by large media/companies

works with users when it comes to decision making, includes members in voting processes, etc.

literally hosts millions of fanfiction at no cost whatsoever and doesn’t subject you to ads, honestly those are the only two points you need but the other ones are there to show how much they’re doing 

y’all need to appreciate that – donations are completely optional and if you don’t want to donate then don’t, but spreading posts about how Archive doesn’t do anything for anyone and doesn’t do anything with all this money they’re getting is completely unnecessary and outright false.

anyway, donate to Archive of Our Own

1.569.000 users

by asking for 130k dollar 2-3 times a year, that means they ask each account holding user for about 0,08 dollar 2-3 times a year -> 0,25 dollar altogether. this doesn’t even factor in the millions of users who don’t have an account but visit ao3, cos if they pitch in as well, it’ll be even less for everyone who enjoys the access ao3 provides to 4.000.000 fanworks and to create more every day!

queerlyalex above has already listed all or most of the terrific services ao3 provides, but right now the legal advocacy efforts they maintain cannot be emphasized enough: european copyright reform article 13 anyone? same for canada and australia? or fighting for net neutrality since 2014?

so yeah you fucking bet i send them at least 50bucks or more a year for all of that. and if out of the 130k they use my 50 bucks to buy themselves some coffee for all the work hours they dedicate to ao3 running as smoothly as it does, keeping it free of harassment and adds without selling my data for it, and fighting for fanworks to remain accessible for everyone now and in future, then be my guest!

Not to mention vowing to help Chinese users still desperately trying to find a place that won’t sell out to the morality police.
