Several Alaskan Native communities were devastated by the typhoon that hit western Alaska, please spread this information so we can help! I’m begging for your assistance in helping my fellow Alaskan Native Peoples
These communities were very rural(as in you can only get to them by boat or small plane, and only during some parts of the year due to the harsh winter conditions, and it can takes hours) and many relied on subsistence living(hunting, fishing, gathering) to get by, they’ve lost everything including their homes to the sea and are now having to take refuge in cities as Alaska’s winter approach’s
Anchorage(the only major city in Alaska where most are being relocated) is already experiencing a housing/shelter crisis, and while right now in the midst of this emergency it is bringing the community together I fear what may come in the long term
When you live a subsistence lifestyle you don’t keep much money in the bank, and they’re separated from the land that has provided for them. Finding work and new homes is going to be difficult, and the city is full of racist discrimination specifically against native peoples
Please help ease this situation so this transition is even a tiny bit less difficult
This actually is exactly what happened
Word for word 😤
Yes this is actually canon
kpop demon hunters as anime 🎶✨
LOOK AT THEM, LOOOOOOOOK!!!
Genderqueer baddie got the who school gagged

Fanfic is a free hobby.
It's one of the last few things we can have as a society that's free. You can engage, for free. People give you things (art, stories, etc), for free.
Don't buy into the consummerism just because it's everywhere else.
You don't have to consume everything you interact with. You don't have to use things, just because they exist.
You're allowed (still, for now), to have things that are enjoyable for free.
Do you realise how insane the world is? We don't have many places where we can just be, for free anymore, but ao3 is. Did you notice we don't have ads in ao3? We don't have pop ups? Where ELSE do we not have that?
Where else can you just go and not have to wait for a commercial to be over or for ads to be on the sidelines?
I don't think the younger people understand, but the whole of internet used to be like this. YouTubers would do Youtube for free, just because. You couldn't monetise your internet presence before.
Ao3 is like a little preserved corner of the internet where the old internet used to be, and it's being attacked by people who do not understand that free things are allowed to exist without judgment.
Please don't ruin this for us.
Some of us need it.
any transition guide that tells you to 'slim down' or lose weight in order to pass is full of shit. you do not need to lose weight to pass. let me say this again. you do not need to lose weight in order to pass.
your masculinity can and will be recognized without needing to lose weight.
Also true for transfemmes. If anyone tells you you need to lose weight to look more feminine punch them in the throat.
no matter how terrible my day is. i can always end my day in bed imagining fictional characters making out sloppy style and fucking raw. and that's beautiful. there's some good in this world mister frodo and it's worth fighting for
hi, a lot of you need a perspective reset
the average human lifespan globally is 70+ years
taking the threshold of adulthood as 18, you are likely to spend at least 52 years as a fully grown adult
at the age of 30 you have lived less than one quarter of your adult life (12/52 years)
'middle age' is typically considered to be between 45-65
it is extremely common to switch careers, start new relationships, emigrate, go to college for the first or second time, or make other life-changing decisions in middle age
it's wild that I even have to spell it out, but older adults (60+) still have social lives and hobbies and interests.
you can still date when you get old. you can still fuck. you can still learn new skills, be fashionable, be competitive. you can still gossip, you can still travel, you can still read. you can still transition. you can still come out.
young doesn't mean peaked. you're inexperienced in your 20s! you're still learning and practicing! you're developing social skills and muscle memory that will last decades!
there are a million things to do in the world, and they don't vanish overnight because an imaginary number gets too big
Being a pro censorship ao3 user is so insanely cringe. Either use the (incredibly effective and well designed) filtering system to avoid seeing the shit you don't like or stop complaining. Leave the pro censorship rhetoric to Wattpad or smth
"I'd destroy the world to protect you" but it's a parent/child relationship
"I hate everyone but I love you more than anything" but it's two best friends
"you're the only one who can bring me back when I lose myself" but it's siblings

Fierce Femmes and Notorious Liars - Review
Title: Fierce Femmes and Notorious Liars
Author: Kai Cheng Thom
Genre: Fantasy, Memoir
Sub-Genre: Magical Realism
Audience: Adult
Format: Novel
Representation: Trans woman POV character
Trans femme supporting characters
Summary: In the form of a fantastical, fictionalized memoir, Fierce Femmes and Notorious Liars follows a young trans woman as she runs away from home and her strict parents. She escapes to the Street of Miracles, a pleasure district home to a group of fierce and defiant trans femmes who take her in as one of their own. In this mystical world swimming with ghosts and magic, she grows into herself and finds her place in her community. But, when a trans woman is murdered, the group begins to come apart as their rage and sorrow push them towards different responses – self-preservation, activism, and vigilante violence.
writing badly and cringily is actually an essential part of the writing process, both in terms of individual projects and in gaining voice and confidence as a writer in the long term. there is no way around the cringe. there's no way around the work.
You're going to have to do it sooner or later. Do it sooner.
...In the late 1970s, David Gerrold told me, "The first million words are for practice." He was right. This fact won't necessarily stop you from putting some of those first million words out where other people can read them, or even selling them. But you will still be practicing for a good long while.
So make your peace with that, and get busy.
I wish we had been born into a kinder time.
But we weren't. So we're going to have to build one.
and we will build one
