ended up giving up on the colour palette thing (as I always do) and decided to go with something completely different. Also got too confident with the shading thing, I can't quite do two-source light properly yet.

romeo is crazy as a guy’s name bcuz it’s famously one of the most well known love stories between a man and a woman in history but if i were to meet a dude named romeo id probably assume he’s gay

April is trying to kill me (again)

interacting with a mutual for the first time: oh fuck i have to say something funny what if they don’t like me do i look okay

die and burn in hell you disgusting scam cunt.

so fucking annoying when these lowlife scammers send you the exact same message 30 times a day. girl you are all fucking scammers. burn in hell

So they've decided to take the idea and run it again

Context: Millions of fanfic authors had their work stolen by ai from the user nyuuzyou. Now, someone else with a different username has the same idea as nyuu and is highly unlikely to give you your work back. Whereas nyuu is willing to delete your work as long as you reach out to him directly. 😒

The Pope, desperate to avoid ever interacting with JD Vance again, went to the one place the Vice President couldn't follow: heaven.

Vince about Nikki: Will you just watch him for a second? Nikki, clearly high, taking Mick's hand: Mick, awkwardly: How are you doing? Nikki: I threw up. Mick: Alright.

All jokes aside, it's possible that JD Vance killed the pope.

When an elderly person comes down with a serious illness, for the sake of their recovery, indeed their survival, they are supposed to avoid anything that may strain their weakened systems.

They are meant to avoid stress.

Which is probably at least part of the reason why Pope Francis sent his second to speak to JD Vance instead of doing it himself.

And Then... JD VANCE INSISTED TO SPEAK TO THE POPE HIMSELF.

Knowing that the pope was still recovering from PNEUMONIA at his advanced age.

Still, like an entitled american, he demanded to speak to the pope himself. Despite having been met by his political equal in status, it wasn't good enough for JD Vance.

It just might have been the final straw for an elderly man who was fighting off a serious infection to have to take the time out of his already busy schedule.

The complete lack of empathy that JD Vance brought to the Vatican, that he had already been scolded for by the leadership of the religion he claims to follow, can very easily be considered a contributing factor at the very least.

It's not a stretch to theorize the pope might have survived had JD Vance not come calling.

The jokes are funny and all... but...

while you studied the blade i studied the forge so i could make you the very best blade in the world! love you baby

How to 'Lock' Your Fics on Ao3

This Guide was created on a PC, mobile may differ but likely not greatly. If you encounter issues, please feel free to contact the mods directly for help.

We recently had a problem with someone scraping Ao3 works for their data set and/or AI training model.

Obviously, this is absolutely out of line, but there's little to no regulation AI right now & not much we can do to defend ourselves from theft besides filing DMCA reports & restricting access to only Archive Users on Ao3 [aka Locking], which I will show how to do below.

You can find the Tumblr post HERE.

Thank you sincerely to the community on Reddit & that Tumblr user for spreading the word.

Locking A New Work:

Open Ao3, create your new work

From there, scroll down to Privacy, look for this section:

3. Select 'Only show your work to registered users'.

Locking An Existing Work:

Open your Dashboard

Locate the Work you want to lock, open it

Right next to the 'Add Chapter' button in the top left corner, you will see 'Edit'. Open that.

Scroll down to Privacy, just like above

Toggle 'Only show your work to registered users' on!

P.S. hi :] -R

shoutout to the really anxious people who face the world every day even though it makes their whole bodies freak out

not my usual kind of sketch :)

It was a highway to nowhere and we rode it

New templates, new templates!

If you’re knee-deep in chapter 83 and your characters haven’t even locked eyes yet (we salute your dedication)—or staring down a fix-it fic with dangerously high emotional stakes—we’ve got some templates to help you plan and transform the stories you love.

Find three new templates in Ellipsus (just choose from template when you start a new doc).

The Canon Divergence Template—break the timeline, rewrite the rules, and give your faves the ending they deserve. The Fandom Ship Template—map your ship’s emotional arc, from first emotionally repressed gaze to cathartic confession. The AU Planning Template—modernize, magicalize, or make em rival antique shop owners (you know you want to).

Read the full post over on the blog, and may your slow burns always pay off.

AO3 has been scraped, once again.

As of the time of this post, AO3 has been scraped by yet another shady individual looking to make a quick buck off the backs of hardworking hobby writers. This Reddit post here has all the details and the most current information. In short, if your fic URL ends in a number between 1 and 63,200,000 (inclusive), AND is not archive locked, your fic has been scraped and added to this database.

I have been trying to hold off on archive locking my fics for as long as possible, and I've managed to get by unscathed up to now. Unfortunately, my luck has run out and I am archive locking all of my current and future stories. I'm sorry to my lovelies who read and comment without an account; I love you all. But I have to do what is best for me and my work. Thank you for your understanding.

Hellooooo, if you’re a Steddie fan, maybeeee you’d like to checkout my works?! I’ve currently got 11 works up under stranger things on ao3, most of them are Steddie with a few other ships thrown in there, and I’ve got lots of ficlets and stuff on my tumblr too which you can find via my pinned post !!

If you decide to stop by, thanks for checking my work out, and if you stick around, thanks for reading!!

i love that almost all of us have just decided that this man is willoughby tucker

I love the idea of Steve just forgetting to tell people he’s bisexual.

He’s actively wine-ing and dining Eddie and it just completely goes over everyone’s head.

Bonus points if Eddie also doesn’t know what’s going on.

He shows up to Steve’s house which is decked out with candles and dimmed lights. A fancy tablecloth draped over the table, the Harrington’s good china is on display, and there’s a fucking rose on the table in a vase.

“Do you have a date or something?” Eddie inquires.

Steve stares back at him, a little dumbfounded by the question. “Yea”

“Oh really? Am I interrupting, you invited me over so I assumed we were going to hang out?” Eddie rambles.

Steve continues to stare at Eddie blankly. “You’re not interrupting, you’re here to spend time with me.”

“What about your date?” Eddie vaguely gestures to the setup.

“Eddie, you are my date.”

“Say what now?”

“I asked you to go out with me!” Steve stressed.

“Yea, but then you called me dude, so I’m sorry if my signals got crossed.” Eddie replied, voice laced with disbelief. “I failed senior year twice, I need clarity.”

“I want to fuck you.” Steve says slowly, sounding out every part of each word carefully.

“Wow! Where’s the romance?”

Steve wordlessly gestures at the set table behind him.

I made this using art from @deordah on ig and @plusvanity on here :)

I would really like this trend of donation scammers sending anons to stop. I block them yet they still send anons. It's very annoying.

Beloved headcanons would be ones that genuinely make sense or add to a character in a way that could not be explored in the game. (Likely highly debated)

This also means no changes to the story: this includes character death(s), mistakes, or Sal's dreams. (Would come with proper tags & warnings)

The only alterations would be converting any dialog with game mechanics to something that makes sense. Essentially tailoring a game into writing.

[Please reblog so this can reach as many people as possible before the poll ends <3]

i love reddit so fucking much

It's good to know the Sally Face fans are still kickin' years after the final release of the last chapter and the announcement of the new game in development.

Btw I'm a writer and I might start up some fics soon :]
