As part of my being better at helping people in fandom, I have a suggestion. Especially when aA03 goes down.
First, download your fics.
Second, get calibre.
It's a library program. Once you install the plugin that can download from fiction archives,
it will save your actual ebooks as well. I can put them on other tablets or anything else I want.
Personally, I have over 8000 fic, maybe more. It makes book covers for your fic, organizes series.It helps you find fic by keywords.
I have not given proper constructive criticism.
I have not provided links to resources when I have seen them necessary.
I have not gently advised etiquette, even though it may not be appreciated.
I was taught by Elders when I blundered first as a reader then as a writer. I was coached gently into improving my art but I believe I have failed to do the same.
I'm sorry.
I have been a poor Fandom Oldster. I have not passed down the Sacred Texts. If you have been in Fandom as writer or reader since prior to 2000, you likely know what I mean.
Someone didn't like what I had to say about inherent bias in literature. And they proved me right by taking biased stance towards my statements in which I said older literature can be problematic.
They mentioned racism & misogyny, but that's
not the only problematic idea in older lit. So of course after deliberately misconstruing my statements,they blocked me. How quaint & naturally proved me right. Now they may decide to unblock me after being called out but ehhh while I like debate, I despise
a sore loser. It's one thing to block a bigot spewing hate because its designed to hurt people, quite another because you disagree.
Of course, it's also fun.
Anyway, just a little post to share my amusement.
Maybe tgey got sore but it was fun... to me.
Elon is very busy pushing this idiocy on my timeline. I have heard more orange stain liars and so-called truthers and out and out racism in the past 2 days that I have in 4 years. My fingers getting tired of block but I ain't going to let them poison my timeline like this.
ALT Gray Nintendo GameCube. A grey box with ports on the front, a vented grate on the side and a CD like opening on top with a black circle with GameCube written in white.
Exactly! I mean I can see CK being a good first boyfriend for Edwin. Now I would love it if they were soulmate on the other side of the other soulmate bond. But CK knows enough to be gentle, when to push, how to guide him into .
Right now, every single school district in my state is closed except the one I work for. 66 counties closed. I'm on my way to work. Well I guess you can say the School Board really cares about the education of the kids even if the buses blow away
So today is going to be interesting day at work. We have no internet. Someone cut the court by accident. And the district in their infinite wisdom decided that we can no longer house local copies of our cashier or registration systems.
So I quite literally have nothing to do. I've already done what little paperwork I needed to do. Yay.
So this will be the easiest day that I will actually get paid for by coming into work even though technically I can't do my work
So, I spent the 4th like usual. Watching the local 🎇🎆, for the 3rd year , my dog loved them. He seriously is fascinated by them on the ground & ignored them in the air. He gets CARSICK but loves 🎆🎇.
He's not deaf cause he can hear the 🧀 open on the other side of the house
