this is your daily reminder that men can be abusers. women can be abusers. non-binary people can be abusers. i don’t care what you are, if you’re abusive then you’re an abuser.

if i see one more person going “people are only defending johnny because he’s famous!” i’m going to throw things. we’re not defending johnny because he’s famous and attractive and a good actor. we’re defending johnny because he tells things plain and simply without painting himself as a perfect angel who's never done anything wrong in his life, as opposed to little miss "i looked into his eyes and i only saw black uwu" who talks like she's starring in a cringy yn x bad boy edward cullen fanfiction and hasn't once admitted that she punched - sorry, hit johnny, because that makes everything better. we’re defending johnny because it's clear from the audio recordings now that most (if not all) of the times he lashed out were as retaliation from her provoking him. we’re defending johnny because there's audio proof of the so-called macho abuser trying to hide in the bathroom and de-escalate the situation whilst she laughs at him and tries to push him to fight with her. we’re defending johnny because even amber's staff have confirmed that there were no bruises on her face. we’re defending johnny because there are multiple instances of amber clearly lying under oath. we’re defending johnny because amber turd poses for pictures of her "crying" so she can look like the victim. we’re defending johnny because the way that amber's lawyers are acting just makes it even clearer that they don't have a case and they're struggling to find evidence. we’re defending johnny because if you still don't believe that this whole thing was planned to ruin his reputation, amber hired a private investigator to follow him and go back decades into his past and not one person said a bad thing about him. we’re defending johnny because the woman who diagnosed amber with ptsd, in confliction to dr shannon curry's diagnosis, has a long history of supporting female abusers for the sole reason that they are female. we’re defending johnny because i'm a feminist, and this is not feminism, this is victim blaming. we’re defending johnny because amber laughed in his face and told him to tell the world that he, a man, is a victim of domestic abuse, and he said yes. we’re defending johnny because it's the right thing to do. so, stop defending amber heard just because she's a woman. thank you and goodnight.

Being on tumblr is like being a raccoon. I dig through the garbage for shiny things I like. Sometimes I find good things to share with my friends. Sometimes I find something horrifying, and also share it with my friends.

I think another problem with the mindset of kudos/comments on AO3 is part of the “stalking” culture on instagram. If you like a picture that is months old on instagram, its “insta-stalking” because you had to scroll through that person’s profile in order to find those months-old pictures. That is NOT how AO3 works. It’s not cringe or embarrassing to find a fic that was posted in 2012 and like it. It is there to read. 

Sure, maybe some of us have some old works that aren’t up to our current standards of writing. But I, personally, am never going to look at a kudos email and think “ew omg I can’t believe someone found this fic from 2016 why are they liking it”. In fact, I am entirely going to go “nice! people are still reading some of my older works too, I’m glad they enjoyed it”. It’s an archive, it is meant to be a collection of transformative works, old and new, and you are meant to find them. 

In fact, if you find a work that is from five years ago and you really liked it? I bet the author would love a comment even then.

Stories are written to be read. 

Show some appreciation.

i have a little switch in my head. its two settings are “do everything immediately” and “do nothing at all”. i do not control what the switch is set to, and there is no third setting

if anybody has beef with me, it’s one-sided. i do not care. i do not have the energy. i am tired.
