Fandom Sucks

Valhallapedia is apparently up for being deleted by Fandom, ruiner of wikis. It was made before that whole site turned to hell and a lot of people put a lot into it. If anyone knows how to copy a wiki and move it to a better platform, please help. Thank you for anything anyone can do.

TLDR; The Senate is trying to quietly push the Earn It Act's copycat bills into the must pass NDAA, which will lead to mass censorship and surveillance online by gutting Section 230 which is the entire reason you can even be on Reddit and why the internet exists, killing encryption which put everyone's lives in danger, and appointing far-right people to a supreme court-esque commission that the president has direct control over. They could be added ANY DAY and we need to push hard to stop it before it gets to that point. CALL YOUR SENATORS **NOW** BY USING https://www.badinternetbills.com/ AND CALL THE SENATE LEADERSHIP AND SPREAD THE WORD!!!!

Desperately in need a fic where Shen Yuan wakes up back in his old body/world to find that PIDW has changed. Like, everything that happened to him and that he changed, altered the web novel. Even better if it's a family member that tells him about it.

SY's sister: I finally read that web novel that you were ranting about

Fresh out of the hospital SY: Huh?

SY's sister: Yeah, Proud Immortal Demon Way

SY: Oh... what did you think? It's terrible right?

SY's sister: I actually liked it, not too found of the teacher student dynamic but it works. Though I'm surprised you would read a BL...

SY realizing that his life got turned into a public book: what?

SY's sister: I did think that the whole "papapa to save the world" trope at the end was ridiculous though

SY realizing that his first time was written down and open for public viewing:

Edit: I was going to write a fiction about this but ao3 took way too long to approve my account. Anyway, I don't have motivation anymore :/

Wally, I don't think Home is there anymore...

I was bored so I gave Home the Liminal Space Sickness™ lol, backgrounds are a lot easier when they don't follow any perspective rules lmao

I added in a couple pics I found on Pinterest to add ✨texture✨ (hence the eyes and the clouds looking nothing like the rest of the art lol)

Poor Wally just has to sit there while the inside of his house morphs into the backrooms or something, r.i.p. his sanity 😔😔

Even his lovely armchair has turned into a cheap plastic thing 😔

I've been making the transition these past few months, but I think I'm gonna just move back to Tumblr. My Twitter's follower-base has reached a point where I can't tweet anything casually opinion-related without it overflowing like a toilet. I post a short thread on my gripes with color design in anime and I'm getting QRT'd with "kill this guy with hammers" reaction gifs. Like, damn, this isn't fun anymore. It's not fun to talk about stuff on Twitter in general anymore. I wanted to post some ship dynamic doodles sometime there, but I know I'm gonna get weirdly aggressive takes and reactions. Monkey's paw curls, but I don't particularly like having that many followers.

If there isn't already, there should be a term for when corporations make such radical changes to a social network/media website that it effectively destroys the culture(s) that grew there. Like all the changes to Livejournal that erased entire fandom communities with NSFW purges, and the worries that fanfiction.net is one day going to do the same. It happened to large parts of Tumblr when the porn ban happened in 2018, and we've been witnessing it happen with Twitter. Now Reddit is facing the same thing. As long as corporations own the websites and servers, the death of internet cultures is always going to be a phenomenon, and I think it deserves a name.

Small detour of what I usually post, but I absolutely wish (other) clown the best of luck during these confusing and almost hopeless times- nobody knows how to deal with such amount of attention in such short amount of time- a blessing and a curse to behold

parks and rec x boston legal crossover of all time ?? ?

There are so many moments in Dead Dead Demon's Destruction that are just so pointed and devastating but this one really hits man. I'm kind of wondering if it was written after the Logan Paul thing happened, though of course it's probably referencing a lot of things related to a general American attitude that is, uh, timeless.

“they’re not spam blogs, we vetted them!!”

yet here I am, blocking a duplicate of the same blog that sent me the same ask for the 4th time (the 3rd time today) along with another duplicate of the same blog I’d already blocked and reported that sent me the same ask they tried sending last week. and both of them still read like a fucking chatgpt prompt.

I'm drowning deep in ecstasy

While flying high on Myslee

A darkened room a brightened screen

Held captive by anxiety

I'm begging someone kill me, please

Hold on, I'm still too scared to die

Wishing the sun would never rise

Just wanna END ME

LIKE HOLY FUCK, I'M GOING MENTAL

[jiraixprincess]

The feminine urge to relapse like a fucking loser after being clean for three months

[invader-sparkelhuzky]

Haii :3

I think ur art is kewl :3 (I wonder what you think of mine?)

Thanx, glad you like it! I think you have a fun way of stylization with very few bounaries, go nuts and dont limit yourself!

[statementlives]

okay so we've got some sort of reverse sergey ushanka parallel where, instead of a human struggling to survive inside the internet (the angles cut him when he tried to think), the internet struggles to survive inside a human (the views cut her when she tried to speak) ??

Izzy and Magnus do Youtube

Honestly, I just like some Magnus&Izzy bffs shenanigans. Just imagine the two of them getting it into their heads that doing Youtube videos together would be a good idea. First thing they do is a baking video. Turns out that without his magic (which is strictly forbidden for the making of videos) Magnus is just as bad in the kitchen as Isabelle. There is at least one flour explosion, one fire, a few minor injuries (someone slipping on the buttery floor and things like that) and the smoke alarm going off multiple times. When they are done, they are disheveled and covered in ingredients, while they make everyone else taste their cupcakes. Which are horrible. Magnus and Izzy plan a new video for next week. Alec starts researching runes for a stronger stomach.
