the respect i have for someone who hears about trump getting re-elected and going "LETS SAVE THE FANFIC"... is immense.

but i totally agree... LETS SAVE THE FANFIC

attn folks interested in preserving fanfiction + digital fan history

alright so uh... the us is going through some shit right now.

as someone who's currently pursing graduate education with a substantial focus in fan studies, i am especially concerned about preserving the amount of works fans have created over the last however many years we've been fucking around on the internet. in particular, i'm really worried about ao3 and (even though i look at it like a cousin i'm not fond of) wattpad. these sites have immense cultural value and history that is worth preserving, and i'm not gonna lie: i'm a little worried about their standing come january.

so this is where we as a collective come in. i don't know how many followers i have on this silly hellsite, but i'm going to ask folks this: please, please, please— start archiving the fanfics and fanart and fan-everything of the fandoms you're in, you care about, or you have been in. put it on an external harddrive. make back ups. you'll want it if things go south, and scholars like me will want it so we can preserve fan history.

if you're interested in doing this, rb or message me or leave a comment or something and i'd love to work together on making a massive, cloud and external, database of fandoms we all care about. we have time to do this, and other folks have done and are doing this, but we need to do it.

to spread this around some, i've tagged this with fandoms i'm most active with here, but share wild and far. even if you don't want to do this with me, do it with your friends. please <3

tldr: i, and many other fan studies folks/fans writ large, are worried about what happens to fanfiction come january and trump's presidency. if you also care about this, let's work together to start putting together a database of fics we care about.

p.s. and if you do it i'll even give you a little shoutout in the acknowledgements of my master's thesis if you want idk (is this anything????)

i am a court jester. i am my beloved queen's Emotional Support Silly Guy. this is my role in life and i am happy.

*chokes on own saliva in embarrassment*

i should probably get a normal hobby instead of squealing over fictional gay ppl, but i don’t think i will

Laptops are always so much more Fucked than phones in my experience. A laptop is like a beautiful horse that wants nothing more than to break all of its legs. A decently solid android phone will act normal

how on tony hawk's good green earth does one cite and do a bibliography for one's powerpoint?

i am shaking in my winnie the pooh slippers right now

loving someone so much you want to share in their grief is such a powerful and beautiful idea.

“Like your magnet heart and sentimental boulder

I carry it with you, throw it on my shoulders”

“Isimo”, Bleachers

“Don’t want no other shade of blue, but you”

“hoax”, Taylor Swift

“isimo” by bleachers is such a unique song. not near enough love songs talk about how proud you feel of the person you love!!!

like yes we get it the singer loves their lover so much, but are they proud of what they’ve achieved too? are they genuinely proud of what their beloved has been through?

“Isimo… look at you, you made it out”

🤌🤌

Messaging people for the first time is so hard. What am I supposed to say? Like, "You seem really odd and your blog intrigues me. Do you want to have philosophical conversations or perhaps talk about fictional characters?" What! Whatever. I will just follow you back and stare at your blog with my big beautiful brown eyes.

the “you like like… taylor swift” reveal in clara bow gives me the same shivers as “and then it was bought by me”

piano intro to “loml” is literally “across the stars” from star wars no I won’t elaborate because I’m crying in the corner

your honour, she literally went to another school. you wouldn’t even know her. no i’m being super serious right now I swear

social media is a talent contest, and by god am I last place. y’know actually I ’m not even last.

i’m in the bathroom crying into my dress while listening to radiohead’s “creep” on loop

Sensei Wu asked for Bach but jay wanted hot to go and cole wanted wonderwall so he tried to do a mashup and it

Finding someone to grow old with is like finding a part of yourself that you never knew was there. It’s warm and squishy and fuzzy and even cheesier than you’d expect. I regret to inform y’all that I love it.

I am fully aware that only one person follows me on tumblr and that one person stupidly left post notifications on so HA HA BIG JIM have fun waking up to this on your phone

People who dry swallow tablets should dry swallow some burning hot coals
