i've seen a lot of people talk about mcyt as a constantly burning library of alexandria recently, and to some extent that's true. people are constantly deleting their blogs, going scorched earth with animatics, fanfics, etc., that they made. but i've also seen people (three in the last few days!) make this claim about VODs, when talking about large fandoms like DSMP and QSMP, and.... guys. that was true in 2020. that's not true anymore. archivists have been working tirelessly for years now to make sure that isn't true.

the dsmp VOD masterlist is here. in november 2020, it's missing 16 VODs, if i am counting correctly--which is still a fairly small minority, but it's a lot, and it sucks!--but in november of 2021, it's missing one, and that's because the cc of that VOD does copyright takedowns, not because the archivists didn't save it. no one in the archivist project is deleting VODs off youtube with no backups the way people are deleting fanfics. three months ago, one of my dsmp archivist friends finished coding a tool that let them reconstruct VODs out of twitch clips, and reconstructed six tubbo dsmp VODs from 2020. not only are we basically not losing VODs anymore, we are actively gaining VODs that have been lost for years, that were thought to be lost forever. the library isn't burning anymore; it's being rebuilt.

the qsmp VOD masterlist is here. it is usually a month or two behind the present day, to give creators time to archive their own VODs, but... look at it. in january of 2024, every single qsmp vod was archived. the same is true of december of 2023, and november, and the vast majority of months for the past year.

i'm not going to say that there isn't a problem. just a few days ago, i realized that a lifesteal VOD from last year was missing--that its youtube upload was messed up somehow, and no one noticed and it wasn't mirrored on the internet archive and the person who uploaded it deleted the original file. and now it's gone forever. this made me super sad! like i said: i'm not going to say that there isn't a problem.

but... look at the lifesteal VOD masterlist here. lifesteal's a smaller fandom than qsmp or dsmp. open the 2022 tab and you'll see months and months of lost VODs, of no one's VODs being saved, because there weren't any archivists saving them. then open the 2023 tab and see: they lost four VODs, over the course of a year. even in smaller fandoms, archivists are working. they're making progress. they're saving VODs. in 2024, lifesteal archivists screenrecorded five streams on tumblr live to make sure they would not become lost media. mcyt may be a constantly burning library of alexandria, but the people with fire extinguishers are dedicated. they're making incredible progress. i know people with petabytes of VODs saved, who have spent money on extra storage for this. i know people who are constantly running up against their storage limits as they download/upload to the internet archive/delete for space/rinse and repeat. a decent fraction of the time, my internet at home is slow because it's downloading VODs.

and these aren't the only mcyt fandoms with archiving projects! the outsiders smp VOD masterlist is here. origins smp VOD masterlist is here. smp earth VOD masterlist is here. rats smp VOD masterlist is here. there are so many others that i just don't happen to know about. the older and smaller a fandom is, the more likely it is to not have an attached archiving project, or for the archive to be missing a lot of VODs. but... guys, we've saved a lot. there are people out there, working tirelessly to save even more. yes, mourn what we have lost--the archivists i know are also the ones mourning the most for the VODs that are, in fact, forever lost media. but don't dismiss how much people have saved. we are making progress. we are losing less and less every month. the vast majority of the dsmp and qsmp still exist, i am not going to say they're the same experience as watching live because they're really not, but.. they're out there. people have put in a lot of work to save them.

if you have publicly available VOD masterlists or other mcyt archiving projects that aren't on this post, please add them in a reblog. i want this post to serve as a reference for how much archivists have saved in this community; unfortunately, i'm not super connected to every community. but i know that--for every person deleting things, there are people working, tirelessly & with little external reward, in so many different mcyt fandoms, to save things. and we should appreciate that more often.

I check fully out of reality so often sometimes I forget that disassociation can be unpleasant

#most of the time I'm like. i don't wanna be here. and i just space out and then hours have passed #but if i say out loud i think I'm disassociating my friends are like im sorry #and im like oh yeah. thats not ideal #turns out absconding from reality is not the best way to get through it #but well! short of inserting myself into works of fiction it's the best i got! #therapists dni #just kidding. but like. i know #📝

the absolute disconnect of taylor swift by describing her album reputation as a punk goth moment of female rage when she wrote lyrics to said record such as: "he can be my jailor, burton to this taylor" "you're so gorgeous i cant say anything to your face, cause look at that face" and "my babys fly like a jet stream" among others. not only laughable but ignorant at best and pedantic at worst. shes just clowning herself at this point.

#anti Taylor swift #im still baffled by that statement #girl get rid of one of your yes men and hire a therapist instead #mine #swifties dni

Antis saying that therapists need their license revoked if they recommend fiction cope to specific clients with certain trauma or disorders has the exact same energy as anti vaxxers saying doctors should have their license revoked for giving vaccines.

I said what I said.🤷

Also antis fail to remember that a therapist's job is not to make people normal, it's to make them happy and safe from themselves. Lowkey ablest to tell disabled and disturbed people not to take their LICENCED PERSONAL PROFESSIONAL'S advice just because you personally do not understand it.

#Also how antis just assume I'm into loli sho☠️ #LIke bro do I know you? #Literally who tf r u #Plz #You're not my therapist or my partner literally why are your trying to tell me how to cope with MY trauma?? #Also ur weird assumptions.. like? I'm not even in to most proship tropes either that's the funny part 😹 #profic #proship #anti anti #proship safe #ship and let ship #anti censorship #anti harassment #anti dni #fiction is fiction #fiction is not reality #🍖🌈 #🌈🍖

My therapist be making my eyes well up by listening to me and being so fun and kind and genuine like an actual normal person on top of being a therapist who is clearly paying attention to the things I say and has her own opinions and stuff to add and engages me like I'm an actual person..

Also, to quote her out of context: "it's a cute codependent"

^this why I love this woman she be spitting fire shit like this

The Validation that I'm not crazy for loving my hoomans very hard. And also the quote genuinely sounds like a fandomblr shitpost. It IS a cute codependent actually!! Love is not lost on heavily pathologized attachment styles. Love is real love is strong its okay to love someone super hard and have them love you super hard back. I just. Damn. Having a moment here

#therapy #my therapist #god i love her #my therapist said #delete later #personal #one thing tho #stop trying to rouse hope in me dni hopium addicts #literally just makes me sad #other than that my therapist is better than all of yours and i want to give her a mug or t shirt that says: #number one therapist in all universes #sorry not sorry my therapist better than yours haha bitch

tired of medication positivity posts that assume everyone has a positive relationship with medication

here’s to people who don’t take medication that their doctors want them to take. here’s to people who get marked noncompliant. here’s to people who get sectioned or hospitalized bc they won’t take their meds. here’s to people who self-medicate w nonprescription drugs. here’s to the people in withdrawal. here’s to the people who would rather deal with their symptoms than medication side effects. here’s to the “treatment-resistant” people who have never found medication that helps at all. here’s to the people who are only on meds nonconsensually. here’s to people who refuse meds for “irrational” or “stupid” reasons. here’s to people for whom taking meds is a trauma trigger. here’s to people who are disabled from past medications. here’s to people who are constantly being pressured into taking meds they don’t want and having to defend their “no” over and over again

yes, lots of people need their meds. yes, meds can be important. but don’t forget us

fuck everyone who calls us anti-science or anti-recovery. who says we are hurting other ppl by talking about our choices. bodily autonomy includes the right to say NO. even to medical treatment.

#therapists dni #psychiatry tag #survivingpsych #fwiw I TAKE MULTIPLE LIFE SAVING MEDICATIONS #i am not trying to shame ppl who do! or deny that meds are important! #but like. as an unmedicated by choice schizo #it’s hard out here. with the medical trauma and so forth

as a nonbinary trans person who lives largely in a blue state that's technically red outside any major city, i would really appreciate the ability to come out to people i choose, rather than having my "well meaning" friends outing me to strangers behind my back bc they think they're being progressive or whatever

#i'm not out to my drs #i'm not out to my therapists #and i'm not out to any institutions or my landlords for very specific reasons #so yeah a big way to breach my trust is to out me behind my back and tell me afterwards 'oh so i told so-and-so your pronouns' and #ofc i get mad bc idk this person and wasnt given the opportunity to consent to you OUTING MY FKN IDENTITY BEHIND MY BACK #i deleted my fb over some fake ass creeps claiming to be cool and being transphobic as hell the second a queer or ally was out of the room #it is not your place to decide who someone ELSE is out to #esp if you KNOW they are only out to specific people #but sure i'm a bad friend for taking a meandering journey to find myself and not please others expectations of me i'm suuuuper evil for tha #aisling to ashe to ais to ash to aisling #dni if you think this is about you #dni if you think you have something clever to say #this is a vent post
