I'm gonna be honest

there is not a single God damn thought in this head of mine. 3/4 of the time I don't realize I've done something until it's too late.

I am a national disaster and I deserve to be witnessed for my idiocy

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.

[kyra45]

To summarize it overall:

App acts like a browser but paywalls offline reading while reviews state it’s full of intrusive ads and lacks basic functionality such as commenting. Do not use this app. Use the ao3 website. The app uses Gen-AI content for imagery on categories and is essentially forcing people to pay if they want to read your fics offline.

By the way you don’t have to pay anything to read fics offline. You can do it for free using easily accessible resources that don’t cost anything.

You do not need to pay $1 every week, $2 every month, or even $18 a year. It can be done free! By anyone!

You can also turn ao3 into an app itself by adding it to your Home Screen. You don’t need to download shady apps.

[adulthumanproblem-deactivated20]

The way to read fics offline is by downloading them onto your device. AO3 lets you do this, in multiple file formats, right at the top of the page:

If you don't have a PDF reader on your phone, there are any free ones (I personally like ReadEra). Or you download it as HTML.

AO3 doesn't have an app, and doesn't need an app. Don't fall for this. There's no telling what they'll do with your login data.

its a little thing but something i love in g'raha centric fics is when he says wicked white

bc its a phrase in the first but (as far as i know) g'raha's never said it himself. but like...100 or so years on the first and it makes sense that he'd pick up the lingo y'know? idk it's something i kick my legs to whenever i see it in fics lol

Hey do you know what rumination is?

Rumination is probably the most common type of OCD compulsion, but I rarely see anyone talking about it. I've talked to multiple people diagnosed with OCD who didn't even recognize it as a compulsion.

Basically, if you have OCD you have terrible intrusive thoughts. They can be about anything, but common themes are fear of being a bad person, fear of hurting someone, fear of contamination. etc.

Rumination is when you get stuck in a spiral. Rumination is when you spend hours catastrophizing, overthinking, analyzing, telling yourself it's going to be okay.

I'll say it again:

Rumination is a compulsion.

Rumination is a compulsion, and that means you have to stop doing it.

I did ERP (exposure response prevention) for my OCD with a therapist! For 9 months! And it did help, but the idea didn't really click until I found this website a couple years later.

And Oh My God. It made things make so much more sense, and I was able to pull myself out of an episode even though I wasn't in therapy or on meds at the time.

Genuinely if you have OCD, or even if you suspect you have OCD, I'm begging you to read some of these articles.

Like this was genuinely life changing for me.

Here are some of the ones that were most helpful to me:
