@Iovelydawn As an anxious person, yes, I think is wrong. It puts pressure on me and it makes me want to drop the whole thing 🤷‍♀️ You never know what people are going through. Just subscribe, and forget about it. Maybe one day you'll receive an email with a nice surprise.

@Devilsminion__ @chappelioncourt Em Ao3 você pode baixar os fics no formato do Kindle ✨

[Nerdalot Du Lac @nerdalot]

@Lylenotliar Imagine that, liking a free website you access every day. The absolute horror.

Yo creo que Ao3 babys que vienen de wattpad odian tanto ciertas etiquetas es porque materializan lo que realmente estuvieron leyendo todo el tiempo... Cuando se dan cuenta que "alumna seducida por el mafioso" es igual a "underage sex" y "rape/noncon" se escandalizan

growing up neurodivergent is just.

“why are you doing that? it’s weird”

“the way you laugh is weird”

“the way you dress is weird”

“why does your face look like that?”

“why aren’t you happy with my gift?”

“why don’t you talk more?”

“why do you talk so much?”

“you’re annoying”

and then as an adult:

“why are you always worried about what people think of you?”

having undiagnosed autism as an elementary schooler is like

“hi!!!! i love everyone and i want everyone to be my friend!!!! :D”

and then everyone is just… really fucking mean to you for reasons you can’t even begin to comprehend.

and then you learn to stop engaging with people, keep to yourself, and mind your own business

and somehow people are still mean to you for reasons you still can’t fathom.

@Squeeze1i Hoping rape onto someone for the fiction they write is WILD.

Something genuinely interesting about the discussions around ao3 censorship is how many arguments come back to "AO3 could make this change and it wouldn't impact them."
"AO3 banning this would actually help them, because more people would come to the site."

People are so used to interacting with business models that they struggle to conceptualize any other model. Even when people tell them it's an NFP. Even when people explain they're all volunteers.

I want to be as clear as possible, no one AO3 is interested in growing the 'business'.
The more people using the site causes more work for their volunteers.
If less people used it, there would be less work for people to do, and as they're doing it for free, that could be welcomed.

The ENTIRE foundation of AO3 was based on the ethos the founders had of not wanting censorship in fanfics.

Saying "if you don't censor your fics I'm not going to use your site anymore!" To the people founders and volunteers of the 'non-consoring fics free site' is honestly laughable."

Its not a business, it doesn't follow a business model, you are not a customer, they are not looking to grow. I'm sure they're passionate about what they do... But what they do is run and volunteer a site that's against censorship.

On that, and this is a much bigger issue that Im not going to into in depth but worth touching on, people keep saying censoring would NOT be a 'slippery slope' because they can just ban the 'bad stuff'.

Two days ago I saw a tweet with 2k likes saying essentially "all ao3 has to do is ban real people fiction. That would get rid of all of the concerns." None of the concerns, until that tweet, I had seen had indicated that RPF was their concern. But this person, and 2k other people who liked it, apparently believe it is... presumably because they don't like RPF.

There have been attempts to create sites like AO3 but with censorship and they all failed. And ironically the main reason this discussion is occurring is because Wattpad increased their censorship... To satisfy people requesting more censorship. The difference is Wattpad is a business. AO3 is not.

Reitero mi llamamiento para que cesen los repetidos actos de violencia contra la población civil palestina en Cisjordania y pido con urgencia a la comunidad internacional que vele por el avance de la solución de dos Estados, en pro de una paz justa y duradera.

Women are lonely, too. But people don’t care because lonely women don’t murder, they go to grad school or get a rescue dog.

"why do you care about AO3 fics being tagged properly"

It's an ARCHIVE Brenda. No tags on AO3 is like walking into a library and asking for the fantasy section and they just point you to a massive pile of books on the floor, there's no shelves, no coding numbers, no fiction / non fiction piles just a pile of fucking books ITS A GODDAMN ARCHIVE
