This one is obviously an attack but just in case, new bot tactic on #AO3 folks! Talking about IP bans and how to avoid it, and telling you to run a command that ends up deleting all your files on your computer. OFMD folks be aware. You can turn off guest comments. www.tumblr.com/communities/...

#ofmd I'm constantly finding traces of love, like water, that have seeped from this show and fandom into the crevices of my life, carving through walls and forming rivers of care that run all the way to the very same sea where sails The Revenge. all for love, m'dears 💜🏴‍☠️

Good morning, crew!! May your day be magical!! You are loved. You are valid. You are glorious exactly as you are. Take care and stay hydrated, my darlings!! 🫂💕✨️✨️🏳️‍🌈🏴‍☠️ #OurFlagMeansDeath #LongLiveOFMD #CrewForLife

You know what? I realized I do have a small something I can raffle off. I recently bought some postcard samples from my Printful shop. “What’re you going to do with them?” Mr. Menace asked. Offer them to you in a drawing, apparently!

BREAKING - Iran update As some Iranians have been able to use messaging apps, confirmed fatalities, arrests, etc have skyrocketed. Currently 22,490 fatalities have been confirmed and are under investigation.

Silenced by shutdown: Iranians abroad wait in fear after protests turn deadly

🗓️ 17 days after #Iran introduced an internet blackout to mask a deadly crackdown: - minimal whitelisted service available to some users - circumvention allows messages to get through - brief connectivity spikes give false impression of wider restoration The shutdown continues.

Reminder: All it would take to end the murder of American citizens by an untrained government goon squad is 16 Republicans in Congress voting with Dems to defund ICE (or 23 to impeach and remove Trump — 3 in House & 20 in Senate). That’s it. 23 Americans can vote for the public and end all of this.

Easy mini script I've been using to call my congress ppl. The budget already passed the House, so you wanna call your Senators as it'll be their turn to vote next. If you're phone-anxious like me you can call after hours & leave a voicemail, it'll still be counted. [Infographic: savinamonet on IG]

The blood has not been washed off the sidewalks in Iran, people still don't have the bodies of their family members, and internet access has not been fully restored and people are raising venture capital. How absolutely disgusting and dispicable.

Excellent, must-read piece by Siamak Namazi, a former political prisoner in Iran.

🗓️ Update: Two weeks ago today, #Iran was cut off from the world by an extremist regime as the people went out on the streets to call for change. With the digital blackout silencing Iranians' voices, authorities perpetrated one of the deadliest crackdowns in modern history.

hey crew, can we like and share far and wide? www.instagram.com/p/DTyVUZ_D1Ba/

This is a fundraiser for the poor child who was kidnapped by ICE today in Minneapolis, his photo has been all over my feed and rightfully so. If you can donate/boost, please do. And as always, fuck this shit and fuck anyone who had anything to do with it.

Please help us bring Liam Adrian Cornejo Ramos (he’s only 5 years of age and is currently in pre-K. Yesterday, he and his father were kidnapped by ICE. This will help the family with legal services to help reunite Liam and his dad with their family. gofund.me/be8a1b2ab

1. “The city smells of death. In all my life, I have never seen snow fall in Tehran and not a single person even smile…everyone is stunned; a whole country is in mourning, a whole country is holding back tears, a whole country has a lump in its throat.”

⏱️ Over 300 hours have passed since #Iran imposed a national internet blackout to hide atrocities. Meanwhile, the regime uses whitelisted networks and places op-eds to shape opinion abroad. Attempts to obscure the truth will be documented in real time: The world is watching.

People don't seem to realise how wasteful AI is. It's energy intensive & wasting billions of litres of water. People are suffering from unhealthy living environments, & higher bills. Possible water shortages. Companies are reducing consumption, but it's not fast or good enough.

⚠️ Update: With #Iran's internet blackout now past hour 280, the nation of over 90 million remains cut off for another day leaving friends and family unable to check in with loved ones. Meanwhile, traffic on select platforms points to an emergent strategy of whitelisting.

If you need reminding that stories are our friends and comfort

Starting 24 hours from now, #AO3 will be down for about 15 hours while we make some improvements to searching bookmarks and series. More information: ao3-news.org/maint2026012...

Some things that are bad: being a pedo, being a fascist, assaulting people, hoarding excessive wealth, destroying the environment, persecuting minorities. Some things that are not bad: being fat, being old, having thinning hair, having a small penis, living with family. Glad I cleared that up.

show a tv show that raised you

[update] Scheduled: #AO3 will be down for about 15 hours starting at 08:00 UTC on January 21 while we make some improvements to searching bookmarks and series.

"You'll be okay, love" Yeah we're feeling big feelings lately 🥺 #ofmd #ofmdfanart

💚🤍💔

Also. A lot of art SHOULD make you uncomfortable. That’s the point. It doesn’t make it bad

I hate being that guy. I’m doing everything I can to survive and I’m not even really surviving right now. Any help with $, reposts is much appreciated. I’m doing my best right now. I’m running on fumes.

Boycott Estée Lauder now! Its owner is the oligarch pushing for the annexation of Greenland. Boycott their owned brands whilst you’re at it.

"It should be immediately disqualifying for an aspiring leader to invite foreign attacks on the civilians that they are pretending to lead. That is exactly what Machado and Pahlavi have done." www.currentaffairs.org/news/washing...

tbh we should all just be commenting more, period. fic, art, podfics, headcanons, snippets… we’re known for being yappers, but there’s always room to be more annoying.

💚🤍💔

You are loved You are love

Just thinking about my (our) wife today

if you already have an HBO account and loved Heated Rivalry, may I suggest Our Flag Means Death if you’re looking for more unabashedly queer media.
