Desperate times (ao3 is down) call for desperate measures (writing ff myself)

Dear diary,

It has been 50 minutes without ao3, I may actually have to read a real physical book. I don’t know if I’m ready. I’m too weak, how will I give kudos? I’ve tried scrolling on the book but nothing happens. Send help.

The toughest choice

Dear diary,

It has been 35 minutes without ao3 I’m having withdrawals, though the ao3 team is working on it, it still feels hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel

I send forth my provisions to the ao3 team as to speed the recovery, I am not long for this world

Dear diary,

It has been 26 minutes since ao3, I try not to refresh too often knowing it will not help. I fear I will not love to see next winter. I’m starting to forget what the kudos button looks like

me: oh look ao3 is down.

me: is this...a sign...to be productive??? To get off the internet???

also me: ...nahhhh *proceeds to mourn the death of ao3 and await its resurrection on tumblr instead*

[bagel-with-creamcheese]

Ao3 is down and everything is fine, except that i keep forgetting ao3 is down and getting bored and then trying to go on ao3 and realizing my son is still at war and i have no clue when he is going to return and slowly going insane and convincing myself he never left only to realize he did and then i start the cycle anew

#ao3 #ao3 down #does this qualify as an addiction? #i am beginning to grow worried #not just for myself but for all of us

[bagel-with-creamcheese]

Ao3 stops loading for a second and I get a glimpse in the life of a mother who’s son got sent to war and doesn’t know when he’s returning safely

[bagel-with-creamcheese]

Guys ao3 has only been down for like a half hour and we're already 5th on trending I think we might have a problem
