being a fan of a friend's ocs is actually so humiliating....... like yes my favourite character rn is tragically doomed and a pillar of humanity who i think is relevant to the current world. you can find information about them on discord dot com and sometimes in late-night conversations with this guy i know. what the fuck

Anyway, I don’t just bring this up when I talk about Twilight, but I do bring it up every time I talk about Twilight:
Reminder that the Quileute tribe, whose sacred stories made author Stephanie Meyer a multi-millionaire, never received any money from the enormous success of the Twilight books or films.
Their entire community is located in a Tsunami disaster zone, in a region where a world-changing earthquake and tsunami are expected to hit perhaps within our lifetimes.
They should be set for life financially based on the use of their stories in Twilight. Instead, they have to publicly raise funds to move to higher ground and have been raising the same funds for years.
Anyone is encouraged to donate, but if you have personally purchased a physical or digital copy of any Twilight media or Twilight merchandise, I recommend matching the purchase with an equal donation to the Quileute People.
Recently, they successfully moved their school to higher ground! It was a major accomplishment to ensure Quileute children can learn in a safe environment! But there is still much to be done .
Statement from the Tribe (link to the source):
“Living in a tsunami zone at the edge of the Pacific Ocean, a catastrophic earthquake can wipe out our community in less than 10 minutes – an entire generation of the Quileute people will cease to exist.”
You can even set up a monthly donation. I don’t have much, but I’ve had a small monthly donation coming out of my PayPal for a few years now.
Many people don’t realize that the tribe didn’t profit off of Twilight, so I mention it whenever I bring up the series!
If you want to read more about how Twilight impacted the Quileute People, check out “The Truth vs. Twilight.”
This post is being updated daily to reflect which fandoms have been signed up for, and how many people are offering them. If you see a series with a lot of signups that you can do, don’t be discouraged from signing up! A lot of signups means a lot of people will probably be interested in donating for it. We really do need more people signing up for this to be successful. Please continue to share our promo post.
To note, when donations open, there will be clarification as to if NSFW is available for a fandom. For example, say two people signed up to do New Life Begins, but neither of them can do NSFW, then NSFW prompts will not be available for that series.

I had one participant say they’d do ‘any Wang Yibo or Xiao Zhan series’. I included the ones I knew they had lead roles in on the list. If there’s any others you’d like me to add, please let me know. I also had a couple artists sign up for ‘any’, which is exciting to see.
If I made any errors in how I listed these, please inform me. Contact info is on our CARRD, or you can just send an ask or DM.
If you’re a creator and you’d like to add a fandom to what you’re willing to do, contact me via one of the communication methods listed on the CARRD FAQ.
With so many elections coming up worldwide it’s probably a good time to remind everyone that tumblr once got infested with agents trying to convince everyone not to vote, or not to vote left because the candidates weren’t morally pure enough.
Also a reminder that they were better at tumblr than most of us, comrade interloper was great at memeing. Like, the talent!
Anyway don’t fall for it. There is no morally pure option.
Tick season is already in full swing and it’s going to be one of the worst years for ticks and lyme disease. Make sure your pets are on flea/tick/heartworm prevention and get your dogs vaccinated against lyme!
