I’ve Been Looking For Those Words Allonormative And Amatonormative For Ages! THANK YOU

Keep your priorities straight: post fic.

Alright if you see this draw your fave in whatever clothes you’re currently wearing gogogo

100% sure that whenever Trump dies, that day will become a Tumblr holiday, and there will be posts that circulate annually with crab rave GIFs in the reblogs as far as the eye can see

i feel like it is so easy to forget that we as a community just straight up married them. like we said ok that’s enough let’s give them the sappiest wedding in history and now they’ve been married for over a year

I was watching the clone wars again (haven’t seen it since I was a kid) and I noticed something really weird in episode 5 season 4 (it’s when the wolffpack C-3PO and R2-D2 end up on the planet Aleen because of earthquakes and co) and when Artooie is search in the computer of the local Republican communication station, there’s a bunch of information in Aurebesh

Well I translated and it’s literally the domino squad’s numbers (Echo, Fives, Droidbait, Cutup and Hevy) and I was like what the hell is that doing here tbh

1 CT-782 | Hevy

2 CT-00-2010 | Droidbait

3 CT-21-0408 | (who’s strangely aka CT-1409) Echo

4 CT-4040 | Cutup

5 CT-27-5555 | Fives

There are many new friends on the archive, and many are young and have only known social media, which is why I wanted to say something!

Ao3 does not have an algorithm! It isn't a social media site, it's an archive.

Posting fics on Tumblr isn't the same as posting fics on Ao3

Ao3 is like a giant virtual bookshelf, and everyone is able to add their own stories to the bookshelf, all stored with different tags and different fandoms. Works are automatically sorted by newest to oldest, but filters, looking at bookmarks, and using the search function can change that.

Certain works are not pushed to the top like social media posts. More kudos and reads don't push a single work to more viewers by some algorithm. Unless otherwise filtered, works will be at the top of the page based on how recent it was posted.

Smaller fandoms get less views, less kudos, less bookmarks, and larger fandoms get more simply because of the number of people inside the fandom.

Ao3 is a giant virtual bookshelf- there is no algorithm, and there is no man behind the shelf pushing certain books forward.

Happy reading, and if you'd like to have more people notice a fic, why not share it with them! Send a dm to a fandom friend and it might turn into one of their favorite fics!

FYI iPhone users!

Ya’ll ever have to talk out loud so you can hear yourself think because your mind has a million thoughts a second and that’s the only way that you can sort what’s relevant, and then your little sibling looks at you like you summoned the demon version of Elmo, but you were actually trying to figure out if Bert and Ernie would like ham and cheese or pb&j sandwiches, or is that just me?

*cries* IT’S SO BEAUTIFUL
