On the flipside of everything, I had to take my kitty to the vet this morning because his right eye was acting up. Turns out it's an infection. And to make matters worse? I'm literally broker than broke now. So yeah. There's that. But I'd much rather be broke than have my cat die because he's my emotional support/therapy cat.

Of course, their Support & Feedback form isn't available and they don't allow us to send asks via @ao3org. All I want is to ask for them to do the following:
Make the same update posts on Tumblr as they do on Twitter.
Make a Bluesky account for those of us who don't have Twitter.
I do appreciate the anon and the comment I received pertaining to them doing shit about the DDoS attack. But the fact that this has happened more than once since July/August of last year is a bit ... well ... yikes. It's also not like they do actively listen to us.

They've been getting DDoS attacks for the past three or four days now. According to their twitter they're working on resolving the error 500 as of the past five minutes.
Wow. Somehow I'm not surprised ... like ... at all. And while I get that Twitter is more popular but not everybody has it?? The least they could do is post stuff like that here on Tumblr, too, or at least make an account on Bluesky and update on there since Tumblr and Bluesky aren't anti-VPN.
But it does look like everything's up and running as of now because I was successfully able to log in. :)

Reblog if you're getting the same ERROR 500 page. I've tried logging in, clicking on various categories to read fanfics, the latest article, etc. only for it to show this.
Tumblr media
Literally no matter what I click on this shows up. I can't check their Twitter account because Twitter is apparently anti-VPN and the last time they posted anything on Tumblr via @ao3org was two (2) days ago. And what's even funnier? This even shows up when you click contact support. How tf are we supposed to contact them if this keeps popping up??

hello there’s gonna be another kpop boycott! from april 1st - may 1st. again this is not super organized as far as i can tell there isn’t a hashtag or anything to follow (yet, not sure if there will be one in the future), but that doesn’t mean it’s a not a good idea. here is a thread that has ways to listen unofficially for hybe groups and here is a master post with resources for palestine and palestinian individuals and families

Why can't FFN.Net have a site wide Dark Mode instead of just on the fanfics?? Why can't AO3 have a Dark Mode without the need of an account to even enable a Dark Mode skin?? Dark Mode should be accessible by default and for free to everyone without the need of an account and/or third-party extension for everyone. That is especially true for those with eye problems, light sensitivity, and what have you.

Apologies to ruin the meme but for anyone wondering if this is real or fake I can assure you that it's 100% real. These two pieces were found in Uruguay and are at the MIM Museum in Beirut. Apparently it's hella rare for stuff like this to happen in terms of the shapes of the amethysts and whatnot.

You know what I think?? I think we need to stop apologizing for not being so active on here constantly — especially in the RPC. People often forget that roleplaying isn't a job. Roleplaying is a hobby. I know I've been bad about this in the past but ... like ... shit happens. Our health comes first. How are we supposed to be at our best and help people if we're at an all time low?? So if going onto your roleplaying blog to post OOC stuff makes you feel better then so be it. Not only that but we're not obligated to explain every little detail about our everyday lives. So you do you and focus on your health first even if it means taking 5 whole ass months (or years, even) off of roleplaying and Tumblr. Because ... let's be real ... as much as we all love and cherish Tumblr it's also a hellhole and extremely stressful at times.
So repeat after me: ROLEPLAYING IS A HOBBY AND NOT A JOB.

I hate having to ask this but my mom and I have next to no food to last us until Wednesday. All we have is canned goods and boxed meals with nothing cold in the fridge or freezer to eat. Anything would help. I have CashApp and PayPal.

HOW TO DOWNLOAD FANFICS TO READ IN YOUR SPARE TIME
So we all know that FFN.Net doesn't allow us to right-click + copy/paste fanfics anymore and haven't for quite some time. This was due to people constantly stealing other people's fanfics and whatnot claiming it to be "their own" thus eventually leading to the OG authors getting their accounts banned. (If you do this then please, by all means, hardblock me and the whole nine yards because I neither support nor condone this kind of behavior.)
However, there are genuinely innocent people who enjoy reading the fanfics in one go or when they have no internet. And when they get the chance will they comment on it stating their thoughts on it and why the fanfic means a lot to them. This, IMHO, is all fine and dandy since the readers have no intentions on being ill-will or harmful. Not only that but there are times where the fanfics will get deleted and the account gets terminated due to "violating" the TOS or because people are petty assholes and what have you.
With that being said, I recommend y'all bookmarking FicHub. The instructions are all right there and it gives you a list of sites that are compatible as well as the formats you can download them in. There is also the Fanficion.net Re-pack on archive.org that I think is worth looking at as well so there's that. Now when it comes to AO3, you're already.

FFN.NET FORGOT TO UPDATE THEIR DNS
So I've done some digging and it looks like FFN.Net is down?? And what's crazy is that I typed in http://fanfiction.net AND http://m.fanfiction.net AND http://www.fanfiction.net only to get this page.
Tumblr media
However, whenever I type in https://fanfiction.net AND https://m.fanfiction.net AND https://www.fanfiction.net would I end up getting this page.
Tumblr media
I know people prefer to type out their fanfics and stories on the actual website and, in all honesty, I wish people wouldn't. You never know if (or when) the website is gonna go kaput. Here is a list of some programs to download and use for your fanfics (that are 100% F2U and safe).
LibreOffice
WPS Office
OpenOffice
Focus Writer
StimuWrite
I also recommend everyone to backup their fanfics as well because you also have no clue when your laptop is gonna go kaput. So throw them onto some flash drives, email them to yourself, throw them into Google Drive, whatever. I prefer throwing them onto some flash drives because I carry them everywhere I go but that's just me.
