Political rant in tags.

Every time I think about digging into my Fortune Backstory Documents and pulling out bits to share or turn into comics or something, something else happens and I lock that shit down quicker than my computer can load them up

I don't know what's wrong with me these past few days. I can't sleep but i can't work because I'm too tired. I feel jetlagged even though I've been back for 3 days now and it's a 3 hour time difference. I have a big meeting with my thesis committee on friday but i can't concentrate on finishing my presentation. I feel awful all the time.

I give up. I have no more fight left in me.

hate how chronic illness can force you to put your entire life on hold because figuring out what's going on and how to manage it takes everything you have and then some

I don't have a cute metaphor, but also sometimes it's jut fucking being tired most of them time and the fucking dysphoria even when I'm not.

And as a reminder, dysphoria is not a trans-only thing, body dysphoria happens in all sorts of directions.

I mean, I am bigender so yes, there is sometimes gender dysphoria involved, but honestly my body shape doesn't match my internal sense of self in *either* gender, so ... yeah.

Like, I'd really love to be able to wear a nice masc suit but there's no disguising my lumpiness. I'd really love to dress up fancy and femme but I'm short and fat and nothing looks right on me. ... and I don't have anywhere to go or do that makes it worth the effort of wearing something nice.

I don’t think it’s true at all that the reason most people dress boring is that they want to fit in sometimes you just need to accept that not everyone is obsessed with finding a unique style some people just wear clothes to avoid public indecency

The world exists in such a baffling state of simultaneous sex-aversion and sex-hegemony. Every social platform on the internet is trying to banish sex workers to the shadow realm but I can't post a tweet without at least two bots replying P U S S Y I N B I O. People are self-censoring sex to seggs and $3× but every other ad you see is still filled with half-naked women. Rightwingers want queer people arrested for so much as existing in the same postal code as a child and are also drumming up a moral panic about how teenage boys aren't getting laid enough. I feel like I'm losing my mind.

Kinda feel like there's some untapped meme/reaction image potential from old horror movie trailers...

I am incredibly serious right now when I beg you all, please, and if you have Twitter or Tiktok or whatever to please spread the word: click on an author's profile on Ao3.

You want to know if an author has written more? Want to know if they're still writing? Want to see more from them? Want to know if they've written a trope or kink or sex scenario you enjoy?

Click on their name. And look at their profile.

I cannot tell you how many times in the last six months someone has read a new or newer fic of mine and said they (a new reader who has read nothing else I've done) "can't wait to see what you do next!" I've written 50+ fics and over a million words already.

"I don't know if you're still writing..." click on my profile. I am. I literally wrote a 128k+ fic for that ship last month.

"Would you ever do X?" "Please do Y!" I already did. Click on my name and look at my works.

Archive of our Own is a library. It's an archive. Not social media. It is your responsibility to fight back against the laziness that corporate algorithms have trained into you.

Click my author name. Just click it. Just click it.

Before you demand more, or ask if a writer will do XYZ, or wonder if the author still writing, or anything - click on their profile. Click on the author's profile.

I'm not trying to be mean or condescending or anything like that. I'm just exhausted. It's disheartening and frustrating to repeat myself ad nauseam, because someone couldn't take thirty seconds to do the tiniest bit of work to see if I've written lately, if I've written more for their ship, or scan my works to see if I've written what they're asking for. Please. Please. I'm begging.

Click the author's name, and explore before you ask.
