s2 Mike really did not play about Will; fresh off the demodog invasion at Hawkins Lab, dozens dead, and he really said, “idc abt all that. Wake up Will. He’ll know what to do :)”

History in the making

In this new image from our @NASAArtemis II crew, you can see Orientale basin on the right edge of the lunar disk. This mission marks the first time the entire basin has been seen with human eyes.

‘THIS SONG’ a #byler smau (reupload)
📸 - in which will byers is a famous musician, + mike wheeler is a famous youtuber. solely due to mutual connections and mike’s need for increased views, will makes an appearance on mike’s channel. are they just platonic, or something more?

NEITHER OF THEM ARE GOING TO KISS RANDOM PEOPLE IN STACEY'S PARTY. MIKE WOULD ACTUALLY KILL HIMSELF IF WILL KISSES SOMEONE ELSE FIRST

what NOT to do:

• demand updates ❗️
• ask for different ships❗️
• complain about tags that were clearly there❗️
• compare their fic to another fic negatively❗️

be kind. writers remember kindness for years.

💬 commenting culture

for new readers especially: ao3 authors are not content factories. most of them are unpaid fans writing in their free time.

if you liked something:

• leave kudos
• leave comments (small or long, or even an emoji)
• tell them what line you liked
• tell them how it made you feel

it doesn't have to be poetic. even “i loved this” means a lot.

[ᴖ̈ @fallingflxwer]

🧠 curate, don't police

if something makes you uncomfortable:

• close the tab
• mute the author
• block the tag
• filter more strictly

❗️you don't need to comment telling someone they are awful.
❗️you don't need to gather friends to mass report.
❗️you don't t need to moral lecture strangers.

silence is powerful. the back button is powerful.

ao3 has been under a lot of pressure lately. more users, more traffic, more reports, more confusion. which is great in one way because fandom is alive and people want stories, but it also means we all need to breathe and remember how the site actually works.

this is for everyone. old readers, new readers, writers, lurkers, people who just discovered fanfiction last week, and people who have been here since dial up.

let us talk about how to exist peacefully on ao3.

okay my tweets don't really get reach so i don't think this will go anywhere but it's very obvious y'all are stressing out the ttmd;ttms author instead of spending your time speculating when another chapter will release just go support other ongoing works please
