everyone deserves love!!
this is too true
me, struggling to write: hmm, this part is a little difficult. maybe i should check my planning document, which i created as a helpful tool for my writing process!
the planning document:
thats just rude. what makes you think we would use ai??
a writing competition i was going to participate in again this year has announced that they now allow AI generated content to be submitted
their reasoning being that "we couldn't ban it even if we wanted to, every writer already uses it anyway"
"Every writer"?
come on
old gods are waking
not the animated table back there đ
I do love the phrase executive dysfunction bc the image it conjures is of a bunch of people wearing business suits around a long oval conference table arguing with each other to the point where theyâre getting into physical fights, but in the background thereâs just a big empty whiteboard with a To Do list with one item on it and that item is âtake showerâ
my reaction to this is just- DONT MESS WITH A FUCKING AUSSIE IM GONNA FIND WHERE YOU LIVE AND SEND AN ARMY OF EMUS TO YOUR HOME IF THE FUCKING MILITARY COULDNT BEAT THEM THEN NOR CAN YOU DIE BITCH DIE
If your reaction to people rightfully calling out Gaza scam bots for being vile scammers preying on real Palestiniansâ lives and peopleâs kindness is to call them racist or genocide supporters, youâre one of these;
Someone who is never taught about internet literacy, internet safety and how dangerous it is to blindly trust strangers in your inbox / DMs begging you for your money with the same copy paste script of the same sob stories â strangers whose blogs were either created 3 days ago with the sole purpose of sending the same ask to 100+ people a day or literal porn bots before they became Palestinians, if you go to their blogs and scroll down far enough
Someone who is easily guilt tripped and manipulated. Because thatâs the precise tactic these scammers use, manipulating and guilt tripping you into believing you are a terrible person for not donating and posting their asks
Someone who knows these vile things are scammers but still chooses to protect them for the sake of looking Morally Superior (âlook!!!! I support these Poor People!!!! Iâm such a good person!!!!)
Someone who, for some sick, twisted reasons, is okay with scammers profiting off of real Palestinians and scamming people off their money
Someone who is also a scammer
Also, no, people who rightfully call out Gaza scam bots for being vile scammers preying on real Palestiniansâ lives and peopleâs kindness are not âmonstersâ or âracistâ or âheartlessâ. They are the ones who actually give a fuck and care about Palestinian people enough to choose to speak against scammers who profit off of a genocide and robbing from Palestinian people donation money that could have gone to, you know, real Palestinians instead of scammersâ pockets.
A reminder that these scammers stole from Palestinian people their identities and photos to trick you into believing them. But itâs all part of a big scam ring, even the vetters and the organization that vets these bots, and Tumblr has always been a target of scammers for years.
It started with these scammers pretending to be students needing money for their education fees, then they pretend to be pet owners needing money for their sick, dying pets, then theyâre porn bots and now they pretend to be Palestinians trying to survive in Gaza. But they are all the same scammers plaguing Tumblr for a whole decade and more. Do not fall for them. Stay safe.
@queenofquestions if u havnt seen this already then i recommend you archive lock your fics so only signed in users can see it (hearbreaking, but the only option) and resend this to anyone else you know with fics on ao3, stay safe (also anyone else that sees this)
Since AO3 has been scraped due to Hugging Face, I have officially decided to change the visibility of my AO3 fics from "Show to all" to "Only show to registered users". This is something I have been thinking about for a while. I did a poll about, "What are you doing about you fanfics on AO3 and AI stealing them?" over a year ago.
The poll can be found here: https://www.tumblr.com/stars-forever/748514895577939968/what-are-you-doing-about-you-fanfics-on-ao3-and-ai?source=share
I have enabled comment moderation on all my fics for a while, but after having pretty much all of my works effected by the Hugging Face scraping, I feel like changing my fics visibility is the best thing to do at the moment.
I have been putting this off for so long because I was once someone without an FF.net and AO3 account, and read fics as a guest, but I don't want to take the chance of having my works put into an AI again.
Thank you to all the guests who read my fics, left kudos, and comments. I couldn't have gotten here without you guys. Thank you also to all the users who also read my fics, left kudos, and comments. I couldn't have gotten here without you guys either.
At this time, I am only changing the visibility of my fics on AO3 and not FF.net. Most of my fics on FF.net are older ones and are not posted on AO3. I don't think there is a way to change a fic's visibility on FF.net, but if someone knows how to please let me know.
If you need an invitation for AO3, please let me know, and I can send you one.
I'm really sad that I have to do this, but it is best for me and my work. These changes will take effect within 24 hours. Thank you, everyone, for understanding.
yk that feeling when your mutuals with your fav fanfic author-
im pretty sure someone made a post about it and now im just gonna confirm it cuz queenofquestions (quizzicalquiver on ao3) just followed me on tumblr (ITS CLOSE ENOUGH) and i feel like a god.
@queenofquestions what did i do to deserve this honour T-T
A school of aquamarine and gloom
Bank of Sapphire Cold?
my hyperfixtation is lady lesso i cant live without her đ
people who don't experience hyperfixation don't know what it feels like to hyperfixate so much on something that it becomes not only your subject of obsession but also your source of happiness and literally the main reason why you still keep going; literal source of strength and life.
shoutout to my favorite fictional characters, favorite people, favorite ships, favorite movies, favorite tv shows, fanfics and archive of our own
if I could meet one character, I think a would pick Lady Lesso from the school for good and evil (movie & book) because well.. its Lesso. Not only can she mentor me to be better at evil and whatever, I can also learn about what she likes, her passions, arics father, dovesso, etc. and just like- spying on her. studying her breathing. her movements. all that stuff.
gonna close tumblr app and start writing now. #The Horror
no you have to contribute to your fandom if you don't want it to die. most fandoms die because people say 'it's so sad watching the fandom die when the hype dies' without doing anything about it. I'm not saying you have to push out 100k word slow-burn fic, I'm not saying you have to make fan art or gif sets or edits or anything. I'm just saying we as a community should contribute to our fandom if we don't want it to die, and by contributing, I'm talking about giving kudos, commenting on your favorite fics, reblogging your favorite art and just talking about your favorite characters. that's enough to keep a fandom alive. that's the most effective way to keep a fandom alive in my humble opinion.
fandoms die because people stop talking about it, fandoms die because people stop engaging with fan content once the hype is gone. what I'm saying is, mainstream media's hype may be gone, but our fandom can stay alive and thriving if us as a community don't let it die.
i am now the happiest person alive.
