am i the only one who likes when bold buffed dudes are subbing and when shy lanky dudes are domming? i enjoy the contrast in general. like yes, let me dom this man in an authority position who has a very deep voice and is conventionally masculine, but let me be dom by the nerdy guy who's overlooked by everyone
Dear The Pitt creators (mostly thinking about visual artists, but also SMAU writers, etc)
I know that because the people in charge of this site went full Puritan, the instinct is to go to Twitter with your NSFW material (or any that you're worried might get flagged since they have a hair trigger)
I AM ON MY KNEES BEGGING YOU TO STOP MAKING US GO TO TWITTER TO SEE YOUR WORK
Ao3 is very literally RIGHT THERE
yes you have to host the images elsewhere, but that's stupid easy using discord or a million other options, plus the benefit of not making an evil man's website profitable
PLUS the benefit of not exposing yourself and the fans of your work to the toxic propaganda that is rampant there
so so so many false statements, easily disproven, about multiple actors from our show said as fact thousands of times a day there
like literally I've all but left my discord because I couldn't take the stress of someone coming in every single day with a new just banana pants racist "fact" and having to walk them through fact checking like we all didn't know how to do this a few short years ago, like this hasn't always been our responsibility as members of a society
for example
" Noah Wyle gave Israel money for bombs!"
• where did you hear this (Twitter)
• what evidence was given (literally none)
• what evidence, articles, anything can you find on your own (again literally none)
• does that even hold up to basic scrutiny (considering the cost, that man not being Elon Musk rich, or the fact that we've never heard of any private citizens doing this? no. no it does not)
NO ONE IS IMMUNE TO PROPAGANDA
That's kind of why it's such a fucking popular tool to control people? Hello? Please?
Just being exposed to it is enough to warp you, again this is why it was and is effective just as ads in newspapers or billboards etc. It works on everyone, you are not the special exception, no one is the special exception.
Please just use AO3, or idk a site not run by a paedophiIe Naz¡ who has everything riding on making you hate both Palestinians and the entire Jewish diaspora (fvck Z¡on¡sts though obviously) and generally becoming more hateful since that's how that algorithm is designed, to feed of off hostile engagement. literally this is what you are using
DM me if you need help transitioning over to a different site! I'd love to help!
This long stupid post brought to you by my peeking at Twitter for three seconds to see NSFW art and immediately going tachycardic and taking 15 years off my life expectancy from the unfiltered evil contained there.

and idk where to put this but
people need to stay 50 metres back from where the line denoting bullying Fiona Dourif (Cassie) is, that woman survived hell with Max Landis and if you treat her like shit I hope she leaves I hope she burns this show I love to the ground because we will deserve it.
I'm actually gonna lose my fucking mind I swear to fucking god if I have to see one more goddamn fem!reader x character but the author doesn't put in the tag for it beforehand I literally can't take it anymore like mentally and emotionally and you've also got the author themselves trying to force the readers to be that author's self-insert or oc bro I'm actually gonna
The cars fandom on ao3 really needs to get better at tagging their fics as humanized, cause it's really telling of a problem when I use an extension to filter out any humanized AUs and yet they still make up a majority of the results I've gotten so far
Fandom spaces have been on top of making sure readers know the proper etiquette lately, but we need to have the same energy for authors as well, especially ones that don't tag properly
yeah, yeah- being cheated on feels awful, but have you ever clicked on the "next chapter" button only to find out that the page is down for maintenance?
