Readers, make sure you have all your favourite Ao3 fics downloaded.

Writers, make sure you have copies of all the fics you have posted on Ao3.

I don’t want to be alarming, but things could get really bad really fast. OTW shared this today on Twitter, and I'm a bit worried about it 😅

Ao3 is a non-profit organisation. If they have to start paying taxes, I have no idea what will happen.

Knowing that trans women of color started the movement in the united states and were literally immediately erased and excluded from what they started is the most deeply jading knowledge.

It is the original sin of the so-called queer community and it damns it from the cradle.

whenever i'm trying to talk myself out of buying something i don't need i always hear my old russian professor's voice echoing in my head: "WHAT??? WILL YOU DIE THE RICHEST MAN IN THE GRAVEYARD?" and then i make an unwise financial decision

I think the Halloween Special’s characterization is canon, even if the plot line is not. And this is important for the character of Dolphin.

(Analysis below)

I know that a lot of people are eager and happy to consider pcfc’s Halloween special—Revealing the Trout-pocalyse—not canon both because a lot of the main cast was put into the background and a whole slew of the throwaway background characters became the main cast with some notable exceptions

(like, God [Mary] and Yuri God [Niki] were present but not a lot was seen from the mainstays like Elo, Skew, Bridge, and Ethan and so on so forth)

And because of the whole “everyone died in the end” nihilistic-type ending that makes the practically-movie-length-special a ‘pointless waste of time’

But I think this was the writers’ way of trying to softly test out how audiences would react to an expansion of the cast (the fandom reacted poorly) but this means that the characterizations in the Halloween special may very well be canon. Which means… I don’t want to see any Dolphin apologists!!

(That is a joke, the type of dolphin apologists i don’t want to see are the people going “she never did anything wrong and it was the writers who maimed her character”, and to them i say… you wouldn’t have been shocked by the ‘Steals Skew’s Godhood’ arc if you cared to watch the special.

She can do catastrophic damage and do it for fun just as much as Skew and Mary often do in every episode and I’d like to see some critical thinking about her actions from before that pivotal arc. Everyone talks about how the fandom mischaracterizes Bridge, but no one is talking about how infantilized and sanitized the fandom made the ‘God of Mercy’.)

The Trout-pocalyse was foreshadowing for Dolphin’s character, and the fandom just wasn’t paying attention.

op how does it feel to have the MOST SANE TAKE on mary ever?

Thank you so much for noticing the deliberate choices made to make them so HUMAN despite being a GOD, the purposeful flaws and morally grey and even black choices and actions with painfully human emotion as MOTIVE.

People always ask for complicated characters and yet hate when characters prove to be flawed and make choices that are objectively cruel and inhumane—actually crazy

hot take but im sick of seeing people idolize mary like just because theyre god does NOT mean they dont have flaws. you guys need to remember mary is a person just like the rest of them

the citizens of parkour civilization have started using "oh my evbo" instead of "oh my god" and seawatt n emf use it just to embarrass evbo

i'd also think the 2 accidentally started saying it unironically as a habit and it jumpscares evbo every time
