Ukraine is not alone. Germany together with our European allies stands united alongside #Ukraine - and against the Russian aggression. Ukraine can build on unwavering support from Germany, Europe and beyond. Their defence of democracy & their quest for peace & security is ours.

A quick resistance task: 1. Google Gulf of Mexico 2. “Gulf of America" is the top 3. Click on the three little dots to the right of it 4. Select "Send Feedback" 5. Click on "Gulf Of America" 6. Select "Inaccurate content" 7. Select "Incorrect" and type in "The correct name is “Gulf of Mexico"

healing is not linear one day you feel so good you're like nothing can set you back but then something triggers you and you're back where you started be kind to yourself always and be kind to others people are going through things they don't talk about ❤️‍🩹

I really really need you guys to make a conscious rejection of generative AI tools part of your ongoing political resistance. Don't use ChatGPT. Turn off Gemini. Don't read the AI results forced upon you at the top of Google search. Don't use AI art generators or support anyone who does. Please.

“reading fics is for jobless people” the best fic you’ll ever read is written by women in their 40s with incredibly successful corporate jobs that allow them to buy ungodly amounts of merch, i promise you

I have just ordered new Lacoste underwear for my husband. I couldn't resist... 😇 Hoping he'll look as hot as #TZP #TaylorZakharPerez #RWRB

Hey here's a New Year's resolution we can also stick to (for free!) this year: Stop using AI 😑

I'm straight af, but these are my new Christmas baubles. Aren't they pretty?! #MerryChristmas

Fanfiction etiquette is incredibly simple, actually. Don't like it, don't read it. No one is forcing you to, which is why it looks ridiculous to complain about it, especially if you were content warned. AO3 tags + "exclude" is one of the greatest reading tools ever. Use them properly and voila!

I feel like I'll never be able to appreciate them enough honestly 🤔

This is a back arrow. We use this arrow when we come across a fic that doesn’t fit our tastes or preferences. Using the back arrow is an easier and less timely solution than writing hateful comments. Use the fucking back arrow.

i really can't express just how much i love fanfiction. there are so many different kinds of authors and writing styles out there for us to read all for free. we get to enjoy a stranger's insights into fandom for absolutely no cost and get emotionally destroyed in the process. god i love fanfiction.

reminder that if you like a fic author’s work PLEASE tell them directly please please please

Fanfiction doesn't require constructive criticism unless expressly asked for by the author, and if you're rating a fic out of 10 in the bookmark - DON'T. Fanfiction is written and posted for free, you're not a literary reviewer and AO3 isn't fucking goodreads. This is evergreen advice. Pass it on.

bro, I cannot promise you it gets much easier sharing your writing/art, but don't let the intrusive thoughts of "this is terrible, what am I doing?" stop you. we're our own worst critics. I know it's easier said than done. I get it. but you're making this a better place by sharing your creativity.

Just my 2 cents. But my goal is to ignore the trolls. Give them zero attention. Block them if they annoy me. I think the worst thing we can do on this site is re-create the ad hominem/ personal attacks that occur across comments on Twitter/insta/tiktok/ etc

friendly reminder

Alright, y'all. Friendly reminder to please not repost anyone's art. It's so, so, so easy to find that artist on tumblr, IG, or yes, even The Bad Place, and share their work from there. Don't be that person, mmkay?
