What really makes this for me is that OP could have phoned it in on the chorus and just repeated the same fics, but no. They found a unique one every time. Class act.

The rest of the thread is here.

tl;dr: Don’t monetize AO3, kids. You won’t like what happens next.

read this thread. this is by far the most concise explanation of a lot of different issues that i’ve seen in fandom spaces in a while. cosigning both the linked thread and the thread about aus/uk/can law that’s linked in-thread.

AHDHXHEBSG TWITTER WRITERS DID WHAT NOW???? AND PEOPLE PAID THEM????

If someone has never taken a class that includes copyright law, they may not know this stuff, so I don’t necessarily blame random people for not knowing what copyright is, but like… maybe just maybe it’s something that should be taught????

Just another reminder, because this always drives me crazy, but even if monetizing your fic was 100% unambiguously legal and protected, AO3 would still not let you do it because AO3 was founded and is supported by people like me who want a fandom community that is completely divested from making money off of fic.

Yes, this. Lots of fanworks on AO3 are unambiguously legal. Fics based on Shakespeare plays and fairy tales and Greek mythology and The Great Gatsby and your original character from your D&D game are not violations of copyright, because no copyright applies to those things.

AO3 still doesn’t let you monetize those things on the site, because we don’t want the site to be commercial! Because that’s not what it’s for!

It’s not there for you (generic you) to make money off the efforts of the people who build and maintain the site for free! We aren’t getting paid for the work we do to give you a nice site to use, just like you aren’t getting paid for the work you do to create whatever art you share there. Because fandom is supposed to be a community where we share with each other, and therefore we all benefit.

The deal is, we give you a free, stable, safe platform to host your works. In exchange, you get a site that isn’t covered in ads and tip jars and links to gofundme and “read the next chapter at my patreon”. You get one goddamn place on the internet that isn’t trying to make money off you. And we will defend that space and keep it non-commercial.

This is the 21st night of September skeleton. He only appears once a year.

I have the brand of ADHD where if I don’t take my meds my mental spoons all turn into sporks.

#ADHD #neurodivergent #neurodivergence #like I can still get stuff done but it takes A LOT more effort than if I had my meds #And then some things I can’t really get to even if I have sporks left because the soup slips through the cracks in the spork #and gets left in the bowl ya know #like it works but it’s really annoying if you just need a spoon but all you got are sporks

Tumblr is super big on the "I didn't say it was good, I said I liked it" but really need to discover the value in its opposite of "I didn't say it was bad, I said I hated it".

You can acknowledge that something is good, great, a masterpiece even, and just straight-up not enjoy it.

When men say "ummm actually the age of consent is 16 in some places" they should get shot immediately

I took a nap and had a dream where the Epic The Musical video game was like the game Expelled and like some options that show up after your first play through would lead you to cut songs. Like in love in paradise you could choose for Odysseus to sing (in response after “soon into bed we’ll climb” instead of “no no I dont belong here”)

“Give me some time dear,

I’m filthy, my dear

Give me a chance to freshen up,”

and Calypso seems a little confused about it as if she knows that’s not how it normally goes but it leads to the cut song Appetite and you end up getting off Calypso’s island right when you get there as opposed to in 7 years. Which would lead to a different ending where Athena is not yet over their fight so God Games just doesn’t happen so anything that happens as a result of that either doesn’t happen or is different.

I messaged this to my partner @penguinnboi and they said to post it on Tumblr so- you can thank them for this if you like it.

James brushes his lips over Regulus' cheek as the last croon of the song fades out, and he whispers, "Will you marry me?"

It is spoken softly beside Regulus' ear, like a secret, even though no one can overhear. James has never felt more at peace than when he says the words, and he feels so calm, so content, when Regulus eases back to gaze at him.

"We're already engaged," Regulus murmurs.

"I know," James says, and then, "but will you marry me?"

"Yes," Regulus breathes out, "I'll marry you."

"Reg," James says, breathless, hand coming up to Regulus' jaw, fingers curling to grip his chin. "Reg, love, let's get married."

"Okay," Regulus whispers, a soft laugh tumbling out of his mouth, eyes bright in the sunrise glow of the fire. He breaks out into a smile and nods vigorously. "Let's get married."

Black brothers where they don’t start talking again until Jegulus happens (late twenties). So sometimes Sirius catches himself refer to Regulus as “James’ boyfriend” in his head, and Regulus sometimes catches himself refer to Sirius as “James’ bestfriend” in his head. Neither knows what to do, but they both feel horrible, because their brother has become a stranger.
