Play Games With Your Characters!!!

my brain is constantly writing like fifty fics at once. it's like one big and everlasting short circuit that keeps me from actually writing anything.🫠

I got blood inside my phone charging port and now it only works 50% of the time

WHAT DO WE WANT?

Reminds me of Season 5 TMA

never let anyone tell you that trawling through mediocre victorian poetry isn't worth it. we just happened upon an absolute BANGER of a worm poem. go read it or else 🪱🪱🪱

jarchavist :3

Nice to have you back king xx

thinking about that post of people assuming ao3 has an algorithm and also about how bonkers persistent the view is that ao3 is social media lite. like with startling regularity I get comments saying something along the lines of "it's probably weird to comment on a fic this old--" no it isn't!!!! this is an archive I am literally just assuming you searched for a selection of specific tags or sorted by kudos or looked back on my pseud or any other number of completely normal ways to use an archive site ?? kill the tiktok ghost in your brain and comment on old stuff it's NOT weird

the statement itself was so good too like it was like that post that said "tma listeners listen to tmagp like a wine taster" bc i kept going "oh it's definitely the lonely but it has strong elements of the spiral and corruption"

Fellow AO3 authors - Important Info Relating to Zines and AO3.

When you have a moment, please read this X/Twitter thread from Sam, aka, TheScruffyCat. It has very important information about mentioning Zines in the descriptions of fics. Their AO3 account has been suspended because of a rule AO3 has on monetary use of fanfiction, which at this moment doesn’t directly mention Zines, but they appear to be included. So even mentioning a Zine (even one that is for charity and/or free) can put your account in hot water.

This might even apply to comments (which has some BAD implications), but they haven’t heard back on that yet.

They have said that is may be specifically because of mentioning the sale of a Zine, but just to be safe they have concluded:

Text on photo:

- don't mention zines anywhere on your ao3

- not even charity zines

- not even a passing "i'm working on a zine fic" in the description of an unrelated fic

- not even in comments

- delete any comments from others mentioning zines (even nice comments :'( )

Please reblog or send this to your author friends if they write on AO3. Thank you!

I made this poster for an art market this week & thought I'd share! Maybe we'll recruit some new folks to the AD scene?
