i wanted to elaborate more on this b/c the ao3 bots are an invisible issue in fandom if you're not a writer or on writer-focused sites often. i see this affecting lots of people, it sucks, and it plays into a broader trend of devaluing human creativity that fucks everyone over. here's the details:

for anyone new to fandom/unfamiliar with how art com/ms work: NO artist worth trusting with your money is going on AO3 and pretending to be interested in fics to bait folks into comming them. this is different than being linked genuine fanart someone made freely of your work.

I may delete this because it’s a bit spicy but it shouldn’t be lost on us that games being turned into TV is essentially harvesting the stories written by those who don’t have union representation or healthcare with WGA by those that do. Our stories are good enough for TV but the writers aren’t?

i know i've been pretty quiet but here's the result of my January: a totally handmade, fully-functional marionette created for a local winter-themed puppet show. she's called the Winter Maw & she'll eat you alive, just like real winter

Every day Mamdani comes out and is like "hey guys, I turned off the orphan-crushing machine. Literally just had to flip a switch. Took less than 5 minutes." After decades of dem leadership pissing and moaning and fundraising about how complex an issue it is and how difficult the process is etc

I know posting "the girls are fighting" seems funny, but it's actually insensitive and shitty. My father died in a girl fight. He tried to break it up and the girls pulled him apart like freshly baked bread. He didn't even scream. One moment he was there, the next just a spray of dad viscera.

it's a truly staggering measure of this country's profound cowardice that so many people are afraid of this pathetic loser
