Vova's Birthday Posts

2020

"To love. To admire. To be proud. To see your reflection in the eyes of children. To feel your care and support. To be calm and confident, knowing that you are always there. Wondering how you will react to the news - good or bad. Waiting for a meeting at home, as if before a first date. To say with a glance what words are superfluous for. To laugh and be sad together. To go through life within touching distance, without losing touch for a moment. This is human happiness. At least for me, because my happiness is you. Happy birthday, dear @olenazelenska_official!

Thank you for every word and every look. For every step we have taken together. We still have a lot to go. There is a long road ahead with unexpected turns and unforgettable experiences. And I am happy about it. Because with you, I can do anything in the world."

2021

"Happy birthday, my dear. I love your thoughts. Thank you for everything that has happened. And, I hope, there will be more. For the truth, for your eyes, for your jokes, For what I would not have become without you. For the fact that our children Are the best (for me) in the world. Thank you for everything. Love, your VZ."

2022

"My love. Today is your birthday. There are so many things I want to say… but we are not alone here. As always lately. So I'll try to be very careful, but you'll understand: I love you… Very much… I am without you… Well, never… We have such wonderful… Well, two… They look just like… Well, like two drops… I remember the first time I saw you in… A long time ago Well, and immediately in you… Well, up to my ears And then we played together in… Well, the team And, of course, we all… Well, why hide it? And then we created… Well, the 95th. And again all of us… You see, I'm not hiding it anymore And then I became… Well, sort of in charge And you… Well, sort of the first one And all these years we have been together… Well, you know… So me without you… Well, I understand that… Happy birthday, my love! I love you very much… I don't know who's there. But we understood each other!"

2023

"My dear OV, I want to thank you. For being you. In my life. For being here now. For your faith in Ukraine and the Victory. For strengthening me. For all the years, hours, minutes… and once again for THIS year. For the way you represented Ukraine. To our wonderful children, to the OV and KV. Congratulations on your birthday. I wish you ONE thing. That the day of the victory of the PEOPLE over the ORcs comes soon in your life. In our lives… In the lives of all people! I wish, I love, I congratulate you! Beloved OV, your VO"

Queue's empty, bring out the old fantrolls

God I loved them dearly. Come, let me ramble.

Tirias and Tarbel are besties. It's the Jock Prep solidarity, but it's also no pants solidarity and it's ALSO freak solidarity. Tarbel is a cryptid hunter and a conspiracy head. She lines everything with copper because she thinks it intercepts anyone trying to microwave her or scramble her brains or something. She hunts monsters in the woods and, after finding a dead body, more often than not ends up accidentally solving murders. She's just a stressed and wrong goth freak who is also really good at disproving her own cryptid conspiracies, meanwhile Tirias stole her wallet once and that's how they became friends. Mind Player.

That's what's hiding in Tirias' pockets btw, he's got a thing about wallets specifically. He takes off the sweater and shakes it and wallets fall out. It's like collecting trading cards except the IDs let him break into places and get free money. He also orders his starbucks orders in parts, in individual cups and drinks the ingredients one at a time. He's an average terrible customer on Alternia. He's an obsessive, a surfer, and a slasher fan. He's also a regular listener to his boyfriend's horror movie analysis podcast. Heart Player.

Rokoan is the only cool one but that's because they've honed the technique of being so eyebleedingly noticeable that they wrap back around to being invisible. That's how they like it. They want to do things on their own time without people expecting them to be better. No Self Development we take our time and accept limitations and be gentle with ourselves and do what we want as individuals. Their entire life changed thanks to a cool older brother who helped them recover after frying their hair with bleach and the olive barista who showed them how to lace their shoes in the shape of a star. Void Player.

End OTW Racism: A Call To Action

A fan protest against the lack of action from the OTW on addressing issues of harassment and racism on AO3 and within the organization

This is a Call To Action for Fans of Color and Allies

AO3 has acknowledged that they have a harassment & racism problem that its parent organization, the Organization for Transformative Works (OTW), needs to address. Currently, people can use AO3 to harass others through fanworks, comments, and tags. Just a few examples include: racist Untamed “spitefic” that used anti-Indigenous slurs and was written specifically to lash out at fans of color; a Transformer fic that used its Black-coded character to reenact George Floyd’s murder in July 2020; someone naming a fandom scholar who criticized their Nazi omegaverse fic in the tags of the fic specifically to incite harassment to the scholar; writers using racial slurs against commenters who pointed out racism in their hockey fic; and so much more.

In June 2020, after the murder of George Floyd, the OTW committed to addressing these issues. It has been nearly three years and they have not yet implemented any of the changes they promised, other than a blocking/muting tool that was already in development before 2020. We need to hold the OTW accountable to their own promises. (See the section further down on “Why Are We Doing This” for even more detail.)

As fans, together, we are powerful. We are organizing to protest the lack of action on promises made by the Organization for Transformative works to deal with issues of racism and harassment on their platform, Archive of Our Own.

We call on fans to do any or all of the following actions any time between May 17 to 31, 2023 to send a message to AO3 and OTW that we will hold them to their promises.

On AO3

Change the title of ten (or more!) of your most recent or most popular fanworks to include ‘End Racism in the OTW’ in the beginning, and provide a link to this post in your summary or first/top creator’s note

Post a new fanwork any time between May 17th to 31st with “End Racism in the OTW” either as the title or at the beginning of the title. The fanwork does not have to be long - it can be a 100-word fic, a quick sketch, a podfic of a ficlet, a 20-second vid/edit, a short piece of meta, etc. In the summary or first/top creator’s note, provide a link to this post

If updating any WIPs with a new chapter, add ‘End Racism in the OTW’ to the title and provide a link back to this post in your summary or first/top author’s note

Update your AO3 icon using the profile pic graphic in our Social Media Toolkit

Plan to maintain these changes until May 31, 2023, or longer if you wish

Send a message to the OTW asking for an update on their 2020 commitments!

For Readers: leave encouraging comments on fanworks with the "End Racism in the OTW" title to show your support of this initiative.

What Do We Want?

Since their June 2020 statement, OTW has been working on updating their Terms of Service (TOS) to address racist and bigoted harassment, but with little transparency and only the vaguest of updates. It has been three years since their commitment to this update - we want to see the results of their work implemented in the next 6-12 months. Their TOS updates and complementary policies should include:

Harassment policies that can be regularly updated to address both on-site harassment and off-site coordinated harassment of AO3 users, with updated protocols for the Policy & Abuse Team to ensure consistent and informed resolutions of abuse claims

A content policy on abusive (extremely racist and extremely bigoted) content; by abusive, we are talking about fanworks that are intentionally used to spread hate and harassment, not those that accidentally invoke racist or other bigoted stereotypes

These points are not particularly new and are not our own innovation; please refer to Stitch's article written over two years ago, asking for several of these very things.

OTW has also already committed to various process-based actions for longer-term works towards centering antiracism, including hiring a Diversity Consultant. The last update that OTW published said that the consultant would be hired within the next five years (after already having had three years to work on it since their original commitment). That is not soon enough. We want to see the following process-based actions implemented:

Hiring a Diversity Consultant within the next 3-6 months

Committing to a policy of transparency on this topic, with quarterly updates on the progress of these projects including challenges and their plan for overcoming those challenges. These quarterly updates should be published on OTW News page and newsletters, not solely discussed in Board meetings

Why Are We Doing This?

16 years ago, Astolat famously published her manifesto calling for a fandom Archive of One’s Own. In that time, AO3 has grown to be a central pillar of fandom, likely far outstripping its founders’ original vision. It is more than just an archive now; it is a central hub of the modern fannish experience. AO3 and the OTW must continue to grow and evolve with fandom over time to remain a healthy and functioning pillar of fandom. To that end, there are several areas in which the organization, as it admits itself, is lacking.

In June 2020, in the wake of the George Floyd protests and the uprising of the Black Lives Matter Movement, The OTW published a “This Week in Fandom” referencing the works of Dr. Rukmini Pande and Stitch, among others in which they discussed ‘making change for a better society’ through ‘conversations about race and racism’. In response, Dr. Pande and Stitch submitted a letter to the OTW calling for a more formal public statement than an offhand reference in a News Roundup that only served to call for thoughts and discussion without any indication the organization intended to do anything, policy wise, to address the issues being raised.

Eventually, the organization did remove the references to the works of Dr. Pande and Stitch and then made an official statement on the issue of racism within the organization and AO3. In it, they identified several things they would be prioritizing to combat harassment and benefit users. Some of those have been implemented (notably those that were already under development). However as of this writing, little else has been done especially in regards to:

Improving admin tools for the Policy & Abuse team

Reassessing the current mandatory archive warnings with the possibility of implementing others

And, most importantly, reviewing the Terms of Service (TOS) to allow the Policy & Abuse team to address harassment that is currently not covered by the existing TOS

By their own admission, the current tools and policies of the OTW are not sufficient to deal with issues of harassment and racism.

Several people who were involved in the founding of the OTW, including previous OTW Board members and staff on the original OTW Content Policy Committee, acknowledge that the founding of the OTW in 2008 and early board iterations failed us as a fandom by not doing enough, and by not even considering the way racism is perpetuated in fannish spaces, despite a long history of racism in fandom.

It has been nearly three years since the original commitment by the organization with little visible, measurable progress on these three crucial issues and a complete lack of transparency on where they are in regards to even beginning to deal with these issues. In fact, in Q&As, it was heavily implied by a member of the board that those calling for OTW to deal with issues of racism (which OTW had already acknowledged as a problem!) were not really fans but outside agitators.

This has cast significant doubt on the organization's sincerity and commitment to their stated goals, and on their position as leaders of a central fan tent-pole. Fans of color are not outsiders. They are right here, members of our community, and they are being harassed and targeted and driven out while space and platforms are being given to racists.

We, as fans of color and our allies, find the current state of fandom and current actions (and lack thereof) unacceptable. Fandom is our space, all of ours. We, as a fandom, have a right to a racism-free space and have a duty to our fellow fans to create that space. Unlike so much of the world, this is a space we can control and make better. It is a space we must make better. To read even more about this movement, visit our FAQs.
