I’ve Been Noticing Omething, And I Am Curious If @flamingdumpsterkittn And @accidental-muse And The

I’ve been noticing omething, and I am curious if @flamingdumpsterkittn and @accidental-muse and the other women speaking up are noticing it, too. The silence of men. The deafening silence of them. All these men that called him brother in their reblogs, why so quiet now?

If I found out someone I called brother had been actively preying on women I’d be hard-pressed not to publicly shame them. But that’s me. I lost a 50K blog speaking up and none of the women he preyed on were friends of mine or even acquaintances. Strangers to me.

So here is my prediction: all the men in this community? they are all praying this blows over or that they can just label women speaking up as crazy and keep being in satellite orbit around a predator beause of all the kink girls they find there. If they make the crazy label stick they can keep doing what they do: staying silent in the face of this and choosing instead to be endlessly reblogging photos of half-naked skinny white girls looking lustfully at the camera which they caption Sir knows you are a good girl 🖤🍾💣🗝🖤.

Here is my other prediction: if the crazy label doesnt stick, at some point a few, and then more and more of these same men, snowball effect style, will then start posting, weeks and months after this all came out, about how they just knew something was off with ole 144 the whole time. Some might even pretend they were out here the whole time, warning people, its just that post got deleted by their girlfriend in Canada, or that they were somehow, like heros, working behind the scenes to stop him. But they wont speak until some ridiculously large critical mass of women’s pain occurs, and thst might not happen because for them to decide to say anything, a LOT of women are going to have to drag their shame out in public and let people gawk for entertainment. Slap a popcorn eating gif on their pain.

These two reactions? This why men like ole 144 get away with it. Men enable it. His brothers enable it. If you are a man and he is your mutual and you said nothing yesterday, while blogging inane musings or dull porn, you are pathetic. Full stop. And now women know something about you: when the chips are down you will always choose being comfortable over doing the right thing. Sit with that deficit of character for awhile, while you write your blog posts about leadership and accountabilty and community.

My Dear fellow writers. PLEASE THINK ABOUT ORPHANING YOUR AO3 FICS INSTEAD OF DELETING THEM!

If for whatever reason you're thinking about deleting one (or all... or a few) of your stories - whether because you're embarrassed about the quality of an old work; or because someone from your life has found your account and you're afraid that the contents of those stories might somehow negatively affect your peace of mind or even your safety (you never know); or for literally ANY other reason under the sun - please please PLEASE consider pushing the 'orphan' button instead of the 'delete'.

There is nothing more heartbreaking for a reader than seeing this between their bookmarks.

My Dear Fellow Writers. PLEASE THINK ABOUT ORPHANING YOUR AO3 FICS INSTEAD OF DELETING THEM!

Orphaning a work will have the same effect for you personally. Because orphaning a story removes your name from both the story AND from any replies you might have made in response to someone's comment. NOTHING will link back to you. The only difference is that the readers will still be able to read the fic they enjoyed.

And it's not very complicated to do. Just click to edit your work and then look in the upper right corner.

And once there follow these instructions.

THOUGH BE CERTAIN THAT YOU DO WANT TO COMPLETLY CUT THE LINK BETWEEN YOU AND THE STORY BECAUSE THIS IS PERMANENT. THERE IS NO WAY TO AFTERWARDS EDIT OR DELETE THE STORY.

The full information in detail about exactly what happens when you Orphan a work CAN BE FOUND HERE.

ALSO

On a slightly related note but directed more toward the readers.

Don't be the asshole who creates Collections and then puts them on private. THIS HIDES THE STORY FROM EVERYONE EXCEPT YOU AND THE AUTHOR.

Everyone else sees this:

Collections being private and hidden are meant for things like Secret Santa Fic Exchanges (not what they're actually called but you get the point) where all the fics can get revealed simultaneously.

IF YOU WANT TO SAVE STORIES BUT DON'T WANT ANYONE TO SEE WHAT YOU ARE READING YOU CAN DO THAT. You just Bookmark it and SET IT TO PRIVATE.

Your username will never appear in the lists of people who have bookmarked that story. NOT EVEN FOR THE AUTHOR OF THE STORY.

(the only thing that author will see is that that there are more bookmarks in the their statistics than on the bookmark page of the story)

IN CONCLUSION. Please don't delete your stories without at least considering orphaning them AND don't ask authors to let you add their fics to your collections only to then hide them from all other readers.

Castiel is not ignorant or stupid!!

Can someone please tell me why writers seem to like portraying Castiel out of character on Tumblr? The Angel has been around since mankind practically began and was stationed on Earth for about 2000 years - I’M PRETTY SURE HE KNOWS WHAT A VAGINA IS, AND SEX! He’s NOT ignorant or stupid. He’s shy, socially awkward, quirky, loyalty, trustworthy (most of the time), knowledgeable among other things. Thank you.

That’s a little strange. Unusual cause most if not nearly all cats hate water. Cool cat.

Today I shut my cat in the fridge.

Okay, so here’s the deal. Tali loves the fridge. I don’t know why, but every single time we open it, she bolts for it and jumps in. She crawls into the back of the fridge and nestles int the smallest little corner she can. Now naturally, my biggest fear has been that I’ll close the fridge without knowing she’s in there. And of course, today I went to go grab my Brita filter to pour myself some water. I wasn’t really watching the fridge, and I just opened and closed it really quickly to put the Brita back while I was looking somewhere else. And then I looked around and realized that Tali had been in the kitchen, and now she was nowhere in sight. So immediately, I throw open the fridge door, and there is is, hanging out in the back, content as can be.
