I certainly didn’t see this being on my 2023 bingo card.

Edit: Ya’ll this meme above isn’t accurate anymore since other messages from the group came out. I made this meme when the first initial message came out.

The meme down below is more correct as to what’s probably happening with Ao3. Also wanted to say that despite the name of group, the people behind it are probably Russians.

Edit: July 11th, So Ao3 is back! Though the donation link is being attacked now. There’s also a second account on Twitter trying to impersonate Ao3.

#a03 #fanfic #fanfiction #supernatural #ao3 #hackers #anonymous Sudan #lgbt #ao3 smut #the disgusting smuts were the hackers words #like so what? #you can’t handle our noncon dubcon omegaverse angst mpreg smuts #go read fifty shades of grey then. it’s not our fault you can’t handle us #also the fact they called it disgusting smuts implies that they had to have went to ao3 and read smut on there #Edit: they just released a statement saying they want 30k in US dollars in bitcoin for the ao3 servers #i reblogged that statement twice I believe #and to hold a non profit organization as a virtual hostage? #really #like they’d have better luck holding Wattpad for hostage

Neil: Wait, you can't kill me! I have a husband!

Kidnapper: And what makes you think I care about that?

Neil: Oh no this isn't a plea for mercy. It's a warning.

Kidnapper: Wha-

Andrew *breaking down the door, knives in hand looking marginally pissed*: Neil.

Neil: Oooh, you're in trouble now.

Andrew: Bold of you to assume I'm here for him. I warned you what would happen if you got kidnapped again junkie.

#Kidnapper: Plot twist #Kidnapper: Like you wanna team up bro? i was just gonna hold him hostage for money but he is kind of annoying. #Kidnapper: Dude would not stfu. kept trying to convince me I'd make a great backliner if i wanted a career change #Kindapper: Then he started insulting me when i told him i was a baseball fan #Andrew: *stabs him* #Neil: You really dont have any patience huh? #Andrew: I married you didnt i? i have the patience of a fucking saint now stfu and untie yourself #Neil: youre hot when youre playing white knight #Neil: Ooooo does this make me your princess? #Andrew: *slaps duct tape on his mouth* #Andrew: At least he was useful for something #lowkey makes me wanna write a fic now #this is so stupid im sorry #andrew minyard #all for the game #the foxhole court #aaron minyard #david wymack #dan wilds #matt boyd #renee walker #alison reynolds #neil josten #kevin day #nicky hemmick #aftg #andreil

i do think charlotte and lewis's first kiss is soooo fucking sad though like. charlotte is on a beautiful island she later calls romantic, trying to find the place where her late grandmother used to paint, with the boy she's fancied for ages. she thinks he finally reciprocates her feelings and kisses her, when in reality he was merely trying to distract her from noticing her friends who followed them out to the island to spy on them. no charlotte doesn't know this at the time, but we the audience do, and it fills me with sadness for her every time. charlotte and lewis really were doomed from the start huh

#it's so tragic in every sense of the word #i do feel like reiterating how deeply personal it is for charlotte to be trying to find the place her deceased grandma used to paint with #lewis like. she really felt a connection with him and trusted him implicitly but we the audience are supposed to be more worried about cleo #in that moment #also they really don't have one normal kiss huh?? off the top of my head this plus the kiss at lewis's party when charlotte is practically #holding his friends hostage are the only chewis kisses i can think of?? #h2o just add water #.txt #h2o #charlotte watsford

Dee's the writer and director... stepping into the leader position she naturally gravitates towards... she's casting the roles. She cast wrong in dee day, but this will change.

She always wanted the lead role before, which got in-between mac and dennis, but if she steps back (behind the scenes), she won't be their buffer anymore and then...

I rewatched aluminum monster vs fatty magoo and noticed how bad mac is at being controlling and manipulative (he follows exactly what frank says, doing things that he's still trying to apply to this day, like announcing dennis' announcement), how dennis can only ever see himself as filling the role perfectly, and how dee naturally stages a strike and everyone listens to her.

I also rewatched gets held hostage and noticed how it heavily features frank's will and how his gun saves the day, both elements that are coming back in tandem in ep2 of s16... and hostage is a very interesting ep in analyzing the group dynamics and how they interact with each or betray each other. It's also like... its talk of stockholm syndrome, because due to dee's monologue I feel like "why are you doing this to me?" will be a theme, in s16. Because it's like... well ok, no only is it also in gets whacked p2, but it implies that you fell in love with the other person because they did something to you...

look, I'm being rambly (as usual), but what I'm saying is that I feel like s16 will pull a lot from s3 specifically... I guess we will see more clearly when it airs, but I wanted to put it out there. It's not just THAT season tho there's like, season 9 too. and 14.

#iasip #s16 spoilers #it's always sunny in philadelphia #always sunny #bro i dont know where i was going with this... im writing analysis posts like they're journal entries lmaoo #and also like forgive me for this lol but i feel like they're using liam and ryan to parallel macdennis a bunch but especially in hostage #i feel like theyre the data jumper refers to when it comes to like. having a gay couple on the show???? cuz like. well yk. it is what it is #and now they're in the bowling episode saying mixing things is strictly prohibited idk maybe im seeing things but mayb not anyways #yea um no comment. this isnt my most coherent post #i like the part abt how dee isnt gonna be between mac and dens' story anymore tho looking to be the lead bc shes STEPPING BACK from actress #to control it from behind the scenes like a director #which will leave mac and den without a third wheel..... damn. dee is the wildcard huh? #i really sincerely hope we have the whole gang scheming mac and dennis shit behind their backs in s16 #like thats hilarious come on #and they all have different goals and methods in mind and dennis is like the lil lab rat unaware victim of it all #then the veil is pulled and BAM!!!! the gang broke dennis. it's genius

I think something a lot of the internet is not processing about Israel-Palestine is that this is not a religious conflict. This is not a Jewish-Muslim war. This is an issue of Palestinians being ethnic cleansed and colonised for the past 70 years by the Israeli government.

I usually leave the political posts for other people but dear god show some critical thinking and an understanding of the history before you speak.

#stop dragging antisemitism and islamophobia into this #no you're not antisemitic if you support palestine because zionism is a political movement and belief not a representation of judaism #no you're not being islamophobic by also realising that hamas taking hostages is a fucked up thing to do #what's really islamophobic is the western media painting out palestinians to all be terrorists based on the actions of the few #and what's really antisemitic is for ppl outside of this conflict to start making conspiracy theories about jews #and start conflating them with zionism #literally the rule for every goddamn war and atrocity throughout history is that civilians are the people at risk #civilians have been harmed on both sides #and the israeli government is deliberately targeting palestinian civilians and using bullshit excuses about hamas to do it #did the 20th century teach you nothing? #this is not a new situation #colonialism always lead to violent ends and the civilians are always the first casualties #yes this includes both the palestinian people and the israeli hostages #rambles #free palestine

@beegswaz genuinely i think my favorite tags on any of my work ever. i fucking love when people talk abt my characters like this

#its like blorbo from my show but with fucking minecraft and i love it deeply #for the record both Groda and White Eyes get socialized in the modern world like feral cats #both by the main players but it does happen at different times bc they all encountered Groda first when she held Rana hostage for bait #she'd kinda gone crazy after all those years of isolation lol #did that bc she thought Herobrine was the knight who betrayed her during the time period where people were wanting to overthrow her #(the knight worked for the royal family and was one of Groda's childhood friends. that did not last needless to say) #thankfully at the end of the day all 4 of the main players managed to get out alive though not unharmed with Groda in tow #when there's something trying to kill you every other day in this universe though they honestly cant be too mad about it #it doesnt help that Groda is just Really Stupid sometimes (all the time) #she's literally Peridot from SU in that she seems really intimidating but in hindsight is a massive dork #and also the fact that is the voice i imagine her having its so good #once her ability to use magic is taken away she's literally just like a scared feral street cat. does not know what the FUCK is going on #also rendering her communication with 3/4ths of the players useless since she only knows Galactic and no one alive knows that but Herobrine #(not helping the coincidental similarities to the knight but thats not him) she'll learn commonspeak later tho #ironically later down the line when Groda is spotted by the cult getting her magic back will be a key part in taking down White Eyes #she really does want to change for the better but she needed a LOT of shit kicked into her in order to start actually making the change #that being said when White Eyes eventually gets integrated it IS On Sight #she has had to been quite literally pried of Groda AT LEAST once by the others in order to keep from killing her #but other than that she'll be okay :) she picks up painting eventually #her open wounds are finally able to heal over once released from the influence of the Wither but she's still scarred unfortunately #mentally and physically! #but its only up from here... right? #actually since I talked abt the players first encounter with Groda im gonna reblog that aftermath comic again it still fucks #minecraft au mastertag

when the theater guy WHAT

I went to see the FNaF Movie today and seeing as I have a total of Zero friends in real world event range and both of my parents hate horror I had to go to the theater by myself for the very first time in my life, which was fine. Until it wasn't

The dude in charge of ticket checks stops me and instead of asking to see a ticket asks if the mask I was wearing was part of some costume. Little black cloth face mask, covid thing. He was an old man on a scooter and not wanting to have a discussion with this tiny old man about Covid19 I just went along with it and said sure yeah. It kind of was anyway, it has a little bear mouth on it and I was wearing Bear Ears and a brown cardigan as well.

Man goes "You can't wear a mask in here." I say "Why not?" He says "You can't wear a mask in here." I go, "I heard that part. Why Not. "Policy, I don't make the rules, just enforce them." I realize this man is being paid minimum wage to sit here and police people so I go, "Okay." and walk past him because he's just some guy in a little scooter in the middle of the atrium and he hasn't asked for my ticket so I assume that's Not His Job

He calls me back for my ticket so I take out my phone with the QR code with my ticket on it and he takes my phone to (I assumed) scan the code and then he pulls out his walkie and calls his manager and I realize very quickly he is not scanning my ticket and I want to Leave Now.

"Can I have my phone back?" "When my manager gets here."

"Give me my phone back." "When my manager gets here."

"Bill. Give me. My Phone." "As soon as my manager gets here"

I make a swipe to grab my phone from him and this tiny little 60 something man in a scooter in the middle of a theater atrium as the audacity to hold it back over his head like I am a Toddler he is preventing from grabbing at a knife.

I am now having a panic attack.

Manager walks over and I am a broken little Autistic man who just wanted to watch a Bad Horror Movie (it was actually pretty good) so I scream at this lanky probably 30-something in the middle of a Cinemark Theater Atrium with many a random bystander around "TELL HIM. TO GIVE ME. MY PHONE."

I swipe my phone from Bill's hand, full turn, and bolt out the door half way across the parking lot and call my mother in a heap on the sidewalk.

It's a very good thing the Five Nights at Freddy's movie was way better than I was expecting or today would have been awful.

#I never rant about anything ever but Oh My God #Oh???? My God???? What the Hell?????? #I should point out. I might have said 'tell him to give me my fucking phone' #I say might because I Do Not Remember perfectly #As I was mid panic attack and was really fighting back the urge to Hit That Old Man #But I have been told I swear just a little when I'm too stressed #The manager was SO apologetic like the second he walked onto the scene I do remember that #He followed me at first when I ran but as soon as I was out of the building it was out of his hands so #I came back with my mother and she talked to him and it's like #The little old man is just. Kind of stupid. And an extreme rule follower #No Costume/Halloween masks in the theater is the rule and TECHNICALLY I did tell him the mask I was wearing was a costume piece #Is that still any reason for Taking Someone's Fucking Phone??? No absolutely not #But that's apparently ANOTHER rule #If there's anything sus about someone he's to hold their proof of entry (ticket) until a manager arrives #Which is most certainly a rule about Forgery Paper Tickets and NOT about holding someone's cellular device hostage over a mask #But like I said. This man is very locked on rules and had no common sense apparently #He gave us complimentary tickets after that so that was neat I guess #Anyway. The FNaF movie's good. #I enjoyed it a LOT better than I've enjoyed any of the games #I really was expecting a trash show like the books but man. Man #It was fun. #Not scary like at all but. Very fun. #You could go in knowing nothing about FNaF and come out with the most baseline knowledge which is fun #A good straightforward starting point #However I was disappointment in the lack of Autistic Children talking through the movie!!! Honestly!!! #I wanted to hear a child three seats down info dumping to their parent dammit!!! #Like with the Mario Movie!!!

you know I think probably people in ooo didn’t Suddenly start loving fionna and cake fanfics so much as they knew how much ice king wanted them to like them, and are trying to connect with simon through the thing they remember he (ice king) liked a lot. something he MADE!

#like dirt beer guy probably just appreciates simon’s work as an author in general and wants his help and input #but also is like ohh uyeah I read those stories back when I was first starting out (didn’t really get them? but) they were rly somethin! #an I know how much you loved them at the time I mean you used to have author readings at the library and everything you were very successfu #you also wrote those dry science books I think are technically marvelous but really difficult for me to parse um. but anyways. #connect with me about the series you clearly loved for a long time and found a lot of success with #it brought you so much joy dude you used to giggle every time you tried to read it to us (after holding us hostage to do so I might add but #anyways. sorry. thinking. #that line about Jake bringing them all around to the stories tracks though. he kinda liked being derivitavely. what did he say. #and also would love connecting with ppl through media and their personal creations #adventure time #fionna and cake #o

[surskip]

my favourite kingdom hearts characters are the ones who appear in like. one unknown side game and have the most tragic stories. im talking about like.. replica riku (had his own memories replaced against his will and died fighting his 'true' self after learning that he was just a copy meant to carry out a plan. died with his last few few sentences being about how he's scared to die because he doesn't know what awaits replicas after death) and data sora and riku (also created solely to carry out a plan with little thought to the fact they are also sentient people, who essentially die at the end of the game). can i count xion and namine in this? well, i'm going to

#mine #kh #long post #genuinely. genuinely. i know shes popular but namine is sooooo underrated #theres this one exchange thats stayed with me since i played chain of memorires and its like #you can very clearly see juts how little namine values herself. like she was created and used for her abilities #like yeah she messed with sora's memories and stuff but also She was held hostage and never had a choice in the matter whatsoever #even after org 13 left her alone she then had to deal with diz (im oging to explode ansem the wise) who basically told her #'you dont have emotions and youre just a tool for me btw to revive sora so i can take my revenge' #like.. when she's talking to sora about kairi and making him remember you can clearly see that's she is SO lonely #like. i dunno if it's just me but it reads so much to me like heavy guilt and a tiny hope of #'what if he really does choose me instead. he shouldnt but i am so so so lonely' #she was forced to essentially kill repliku her only friend. she brought him back only to die a second time #(kh3 spoilers from here on out) #when she is in the afterlife you can tell she doesn't think she deserves to come back. that people would be better off without her #it makes me go bonkers i really hope they acknowledge her and her complete lack of support throughout her entire life in the next game #the animation with her and riku going in the gummi ship makes me think so butim just.. maaan. shes such a tragic character #Scroll Scroll. Sorry this is really really really long huh............. OTL sorry....

[desperatepleasures]

anyway turns out the reason i couldn't find the character i was looking for on the wiki is that her name is mentioned zero (0) times in the solid like three or four episodes she appears in. sexy lamp ass character :/

#who knows maybe she appears in another arc in like s3 and gets a name! probably not but i can hold out hope! #me not remembering 99% of s3 really is useful sometimes #anyway i shouldn't call her a sexy lamp bc she does perform some Tasks at least #but like it's very clear they were like 'we need a character who works for bob to do these things and jose is elsewhere' #'i know! let's give her huge tits! and no name!' #like c'mon guys if ur gonna have her hold gunter hostage at gunpoint she at least deserves a friggin NAME! #it IS kinda funny that she was clearly designed to be a Hot Lady but none of the other characters has any reaction to her Hotness #she's just for the viewer ig #anyway if you've read this far: jose rodriguez is gay and trans. thank you for your time #kkm tag #no id

[laesas]

I need everyone to start tagging their Only Friends meta, if only so I can more effectively blacklist people's pseudo-intellectual garbage

#its the gay people sucking and fucking terrible decisions show #why in god's name are you handwringing over gay people sucking and fucking and making terrible decisions #90% of OFTS meta can be boiled down to ''I really really fancy this actor. so I am going to justify everything his character does'' #''through woobification or through just straight up contradicting blatant canon'' #''i will then use long words(oftentimes incorrectly) to wax lyrical about insignificant minutae while completely missing the fucking point'' #I know this is the celebacy sweep grass allergy website but come ON now. come oN. #If I have to see one more incomprehensible 30 paragraph essay NOT under a readmore I will be forced to start killing the hostages

[handfulofmuses]

Thinking how Pipkin only felt pity for Woundwort and never hated him despite making him a hostage and how he ended up relating to him.

Thinking about how he told the other kittens that Woundwort got hurt once upon a time which gave him all that hatred but Pipkin says they shouldn’t hate him and feel sorry for him instead.

Thinking about how Woundwort says killing Pipkin would be like killing a part of himself and how the whole manipulation thing backfired on him

Thinking about how Pipkin tells him that he doesn’t have to keep fighting and Woundwort says it’s the only way he knows.

Thinking about how Pipkin stopped Bigwig from killing Woundwort.

Thinking about how Campion had all these complex feelings about Woundwort and how much being a spy put a weight on the shoulder.

Thinking about how Campion still felt bad for betraying his chief rabbit and thought he doesn’t deserve to live among honorable rabbits.

Thinking about Campion sacrificing himself so the general can live.

Thinking about what an impact that left on Woundwort to a point where he had nightmares.

Thinking about "So he didn’t hate me. He hates what I have done to my people.”

Thinking about "to establish an empire, you need force. To maintain it you need…kindness. What have I done."

Thinking about how Woundwort wanted to stop the war but it failed.

Thinking about how Silverweed said that without suffering and loss Woundwort would have been happy.

#it is so sad that pipkin and Woundwort never interacted after that #the thing is #Woundwort really did want to stop the war #and yeah it would have taken him a long time to let go of the ideals #but #if there was anyone who could help with that #it would have been campion and pipkin #pipkin is really good at talking to folks and get them to open up #he never once hated Woundwort for what happened with him #that kid got kidnapped and hold hostage and yet he still remains kind and full of pity for Woundwort #and Campion clearly left an impact on Woundwort too #…I really need to use campion and vervain more #but pipkin is more fun
