Should I do another re read of twist and shout for pride month or should I love myself

having seen what you said about the death threats you've received and as someone who 1) also received death threats on tumblr and knows how that can affect someone, and 2) actually also works in tech and has a clue what they're talking about, i just wanted to say something positive and insist that IMO, the automattic buyout was one of the best things that happened to tumblr in years. it's been the first time we've seen this site bought by someone who genuinely cares about it, understands it, and has an actual plan for its survival. as a creator on this site, this matters to me greatly. additionally, on a more work-related note, having listened to a couple of podcast interviews, the way you ethically think about monetisation and see content moderation as something that should actually be regulated by governments rather than private companies is truly refreshing (and true!). i really hope that this setback doesn't sign the end of tumblr as a project for the team because i truly think automattic has been the best owner so far.

also Post+ wasn't a bad idea and these posts about fanfiction were legally incorrect.

having said that, please, this site needs more T&S headcount (i say this as a T&S person myself ^^).

Thank you. 🙏 Trust & Safety (T&S) across all of Automattic's properties is taken very seriously, and it's an area where when we combine efforts and tooling behind the scenes it actually gets a lot better.

Okay, so this one is for all the Twist And Shout and All The Young Dudes fans,

So you know how people have been printing off and making ATYD books into real paper books for personal use? (Which is completely legal to do, it’s only illegal to sell them)

I really struggled to print mine all those years back, even with tutorials I managed to do it and love it sm!! I was wondering if anyone has done this with Twist and Shout (Destiel fic) ? Bc for ATYD I used pre-made files of the pages and front covers etc with all the measurements already done and stuff. So is this accessible anywhere for T&S? And anyone got this? I’d love the help if you do xxxx

I used Lulu to print them last time

And used

https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/mobile/folders/19UFpRpcQuzQOlXqTbEtanI5alvEIMHsM?usp=sharing for word files and

all the young dudes - Google Drive

Alysha's ATYD Covers - Google Drive

For the front covers

When you decide to bring back a memory of an old fic and accidentally trigger a generational trauma.

I didn't think so many tumblr dinosaurs are still here and would remember "Twist and Shout". Can you guys believe it's been 10 years?! And we still can't get over it. God, what that fic has done to us. Can't listen to Beatles, can't listen to Elvis, can't here "I can't help falling in love with you " without crying our eyes out.

I guess what i want to say is that some stories stay with us forever.
