this took me far too long to learn, so I’m going to tell you something that you need to internalise.

you don’t have to tell people anything you don’t want to tell them. it’s not rude or disrespectful to be private about things. you don’t owe anyone that information, so how could it be wrong to withhold it?

queer but don’t want to come out? don’t!

have a trauma disorder but don’t want to tell people what your trauma was? don’t!

disabled but don’t want to talk about it? that’s right, simply do not!

practice telling people to go away when they ask invasive questions.

the responses I’ve been using in particular are “that’s between me and my therapist/doctor”, and “why does it matter to you?”

you don’t need a “reason” to want to keep things to yourself. you don’t need to tell someone your entire history so that they can label you as “valid”.

don’t tell people information you don’t want to share.

Fanfiction isn’t written for you, it’s shared with you.

Everyone needs to remember this - writers as well. It’s okay to just write whatever you actually like and not write what people want you to.

Y’all, listen up. I have a problem with the Sterek scene, mainly the part where Derek says he carried Stiles out.

Not a minute before this, Stiles explained that the FBI had cornered the “feral unsub” and the mission was to bring Derek down.

And yet, according to Derek’s story, he picked up Stiles bridal style and carried him outside to safety.

And… no one stopped him?

Not one FBI agent saw the “feral unsub” grab this untrained intern, heave him up into his arms, and leave? I can clearly see more agents with guns in the background of the scene, running in the door they just came out of.

And. No one. Stopped them.

In conclusion, Derek’s story was also BS and they made up the whole story, they’ve actually been in touch this entire time and they didn’t want the pack to know so they lied about how Stiles “found” Derek.

What a perfectly brutal comment.

[yurimom]

the moment we stopped viewing the LGBT community as a necessity for civil and social rights and started viewing it as a fun club where everyone within it needs a Very Specific Sexual Identity and Everyone Is Valid and there are Hard Boundaries between every sexuality and gender was the moment we were all fucked.

When we insist every identity under the LGBT umbrella is incredibly unique and different from every other identity, there is a deep artificial divide created between bi women + lesbians, bi men + gay men, etc. there’s so much biphobia in the community and i think its rlly due to people focusing way too hard on making sure Every Identity Feels Secure and not enough on solidarity.

you guys add stone butch blues to your reading lists but i don’t think any of you actually read it considering the way you’re treating bi women like they aren’t real wlw or transhet men like they can’t resonate with lesbian experiences. I’m sure this is a fucking newsflash for you, but we’re all the same to cishets. no single sexuality under the LGBT umbrella- yes, this ABSOLUTELY includes hets, as long as they’re trans- oppresses another. “appropriating other sexualities” just isn’t a thing unless you’re cishet.

The divide ppl insist is there is entirely made up and actually HELPS cishets, so can we please reduce these fake ass intracommunity conflicts and focus on real ones like transgender, specifically transfem, oppression at the hands of cisgays? or is that REAL issue too uncomfortable for you guys to handle lmao

FUCK YOU DISNEY

Anyways, y’all better start saving your fave fanfics and fanart under the Disney labels cause it looks like they’re trying to curb fair use/fanworks and I’m sure there’s going to be mass panicked deletions even though it’s probably unnecessary cause AO3′s legal team will fight for us.

[dancinbutterfly]

You know that 400K yall were so fucking mad about OTW raising? Yeah, its gonna pay for the travel expenses and court costs that the legal team at AO3/OTW when they protect your shit from getting C&Ded. DO NOT DELETE YOUR STUFF! IF YOU GET CONTACTED BY DISNEY - GO TO THE ORGANIZATION OF TRANSFORMATIVE WORKS , CONTACT THEIR LEGAL ADVOCACY DEPARTMENT! ASK FOR HELP!! THIS SHIT RIGHT HERE IS *WHY* *THEY* *EXIST*

[elfwreck]

Note that Disney would have one Hell of a time serving C&Ds to authors at AO3 - because there is no “contact author” option other than leaving a comment.

They’d have to contact the SITE, which is to say, the Organization for Transformative Works, to deliver a C&D order or a DMCA takedown order.

And the OTW is not going to remove fics because someone sent a letter that says “actually those characters belong to me and you can’t use them that way.” The OTW was created to FIGHT that kind of claim. They are ready. 

Don’t delete your fics out of fear. WE OWN THE SERVERS. They can’t threaten the hosts into deleting anything.

And if Disney thought they had a strong legal case against fanfic, they’d’ve shut down the archive a decade ago, when it was penniless and unknown, instead of waiting until it had won several battles in Congress and got worldwide acclaim for a Hugo Award.

[living-force]

This is important!

[llamaal]

This is why AO3 does donation drives. While a good chunk of it goes to maintaining servers and keeping the site up and running smoothly, another big chunk goes to a team of lawyers set to fight these battles for us. to protect our fair use and ability to create fan works that we offer for free. This isn’t the first time the AO3 lawyers have had to step up to bat for us. Do not delete your fics, trust in AO3’s ability to continue to protect your rights to write and post free fanfic. THIS is the reason why AO3 was created in the first place. To have a place to post our fanfic where our rights are protected, and our fics won’t be under risk of being taken down suddenly for “breaking a rule” that was made up overnight because some bigwig company decided to throw a threat at them.
