Totally normal for a legitimate for-profit company to refuse to reclaim or stop running their products even after they're no longer being paid to do so. I'm sure it's very normal to just keep running your service for free when your contract's been terminated. Spending money to continue running cameras that supposedly no one is looking at is definitely not an indicator they are just run by the federal government to spy on everyone and only a wacko conspiracy theorist would think so.

I am not knocking fanfiction. I literally just took a break from reading fanfiction but… books also exist??? Good and exciting books are being published all the time and if you have access to a library, you can access them for free

You can also torrent basically any media and you can enjoy older things too?? Media doesn’t have to be current for you to consume it?

Also like…stop watching only the MCU and CW shows.

There are SO MANY good movies and TV shows now. I don’t want to watch all these shows but that’s a heck if a smoraguss board and ONLY includes current top titles, not thing like Severance, Yellowjackets, Silo, Arcane, The Pitt, House of Dragons, Digital Circus, Ted Lasso, Abbott Elementary, Only Murders in the Building, Reign……I could go on. For a long time. Again, I don’t like all those shows but acting like they’d boring slop is disingenuous.

Also not knocking fanfic, it is great! But stop giving the actual slop the keys to the castle, even to complain about it.

new version cause tumblr staff hate trans women

[genderkoolaid]

#tumblr staff sure do hate trans women but if you make a post containing the word “vagina” containing a cartoon of a vagina#i'm not where you're making shocked pikachu face about it getting flagged

it's barely depicting the vulva (the external hole is visible in ONE panel, from a distance, and otherwise you are only seeing the internal organs), and its clearly health information. calling it a "cartoon of a vagina" is kind of obscuring the specific context of it being a very tame medical diagram showing how to do something that many people do every month starting from middle school.

tumblr's definition of "mature":

What is considered Mature Content? Content not suitable for all ages, including text, images, audio, and videos containing nudity, sexual themes, strong language, or mature subject matter is considered mature. Posts that contain mature content must have a Content Label applied, and it is your responsibility to label your content appropriately. [...] What counts as sexually explicit? Visual depictions of sexually explicit acts or content with an overt focus on genitalia are not allowed on Tumblr. This includes sexual intercourse, masturbation, sexual interactions with toys, and content involving bodily fluids. We also don’t allow content where aroused genitalia is visible or the primary focus, even if partially covered or beneath clothing.

tumblr's official age requirement is 13+ and plenty of 13 year olds use tampons. so there's no reason to me that image isn't suitable for all ages (13 year olds should not be protected from basic sex ed), it isn't sexually explicit, it doesn't even have an "overt focus on genitalia" despite being about genitalia, and the actual post is also just about nonsexually caring for a neovagina. "mature" is very clearly a label meant for erotic content, not non-erotic sexual education.

given there is softcore porn on this website that doesn't get flagged, but a photo of a fat Black woman's clothed back gets flagged, i don't think this is "shocked pikachu face" i think its being rightfully upset at tumblr censoring queer sex ed, again.

how it feels when you start posting in a new fandom and everyone is so smart n cool and you’re just like hey im here now i guess

Good Writing Advice: Use your character’s personality flaws, such as impatience, arrogance, and insecurity to let them make mistakes to move the plot forward.

A reader whose never been in a stressful situation in their entire life: This characters is so unrealistic and annoying! I, a perfect human, would never make a mistake in this incredibly stressful situation.

So, the other day, when I was discussing AO3's policy on solicitation, a tumblr user came at me saying that AO3's "no monetization/solicitation" rules were "bullshit" because nexus mods allows fan created mods to get paid.

Look at me.

Look at me right now.

AO3 protects you.

AO3 protects you and your works. 

It protects your works from copyright strikes and DCMA takedowns.

It protects your work from advertisers.

It protects your work from overzealous legal challenges.

It protects your right to post adult content.

AO3 is non-profit and AO3 will never try to use you or your work to make a profit for themselves and AO3 will go to bat for you if someone tries to legally challenge you or your works.

Please respect AO3 and its mission.

[ao3cassandraic]

AO3 protects fandom from payment processors.

Mastercard has no reason to mess with AO3. Visa doesn't. PayPal doesn't. Stripe doesn't. There's no compensation-for-porn exchange happening. By design. BY DESIGN.

AO3's founders knew that AO3 needed to be set up to protect us from any and all avenues of attack on fanworks. They've managed it quite successfully.

All y'all who thought they didn't need to? Sit the fuck down and SHUT THE FUCK UP.

[sailor-kaiju]

If you want to make money off your erotic writing, take like…20 minutes to file the numbers off and post it to Amazon KDP.

It’s free, it’s not hard, and even if your filing off of serial numbers is not great, your porn will still be better than a LOT that’s on there.

You won’t make tons if you don’t actually invest into being an erotica author, but you’ll pick up a few bucks here or there. That’s just how being a professional anything works.

been really busy with work so i had myself a little farcille to wind down

[meatfagart]

read the girlframe book, had a really vivid vision of a vatgrown pilot and its defective twin. Cinderella is physically healthy, but hard to control and an all-around brat. Sleeping Beauty is an obedient dog but cannot function outside of its life support machine.
