heard someone say archive of our own should install a "dislike" button and I thought I should say this: no, there's absolutely no need for archive of our own to install a "dislike" button.
why? because archive of our own isn't tiktok or youtube or twitter/x where users can monetize their content. archive of our own is a nonprofit site run by fans for fans, which means every content — every fanfic — you see on archive of our own was made out of pure love and passion from the artists/authors.
ao3 authors write because writing about these characters is their happiness and passion. they write for themselves, but they were generous enough to share with you their creations.
they're not "content creators" the way tiktokers or youtubers or instagram models are. they don't "make content" for views and engagements that can be monetized.
so no, you don't get to "grade their works" unless they specifically and directly ask you to.
you don't get to "say what you dislike about their works" unless they specifically and directly ask you to.
you don't get to "dislike" works that are not made specifically to please you in the first place. you're just a guest in someone's house, a house in which they let you in because they were kind, you don't get to roam around their house and say what you dislike about their furniture. you don't get to roam around their house and say you "dislike their house".
of course, you can have your opinion about the house its host invites you in. but if it's a negative one and you find yourself not liking the house, the polite things for you to do is excuse yourself and leave without telling them you dislike their house.
and just because you personally dislike the house doesn't mean the house is "ugly" either. the house you dislike could be a favorite, most luxurious place to many others.
my point is, don't be entitled by wanting the rights to voice your disapproval of things that you get to enjoy for free. don't be entitled by wanting the rights to voice your disapproval of things that were made out of love and passion — things the artists made for themselves for fun.
it makes you look like an entitled jerk with main character syndrome. the universe does not revolve around you.
now repeat after me: don't like don't read. no one forces you to continue reading a fic you don't like. quietly leave instead of being rude to authors who write for free because writing is their source of comfort.
people are so used to contents that were made because it's a trend / contents like tiktok that were made with the main purpose of reaching high engagement and making profits that they forget sometimes things can be made out of love and be made just for fun. sometimes things are supposed to just be for people to enjoy, and if some people don't enjoy them, then they can simply leave without being unnecessary unkind.
gwi-ma's biggest mistake was not sending a demon boy band manager to help the saja boys because they should've been leading with the sexy gat hat/traditional attire/leather pants look from the very beginning
Nah, ‘cause then they would end up as a one hit wonder. I mean, look at what happened after they released ‘Your Idol’. Gone~
I think Jinu did a good job managing with what he had. Gwi-Ma had no say in the management. At least, they managed to get 2 songs in.
I am spoiling the live action Lilo & Stitch. And I am doing it up front and plainly.
Do not fucking see this movie. Do not waste your money on this. Period.
They made Nani give Lilo up to the American government. They made Nani LEAVE Hawaii and pursue being a marine biologist. They made a native Hawaiian character give up her sibling to pursue a dream that she originally did not have. This is imperialist propaganda at its FINEST.
The original fucking movie is about family staying together. It's about indigenous people being able to stay with each other and stay in their home and be together! That's the whole fucking point! Nani is Lilo's last living relative on her homeland—it is jarring, it is disgusting and disturbing that Nani would not only leave her last blood relative alone, give her up to the very government that is harming native Hawaiians TODAY, but also travel to the "mainland" for her dream!
Not to mention, Nani's actress isn't fucking Hawaiian. She's much paler in photos and real life. They fucking darkened her for this movie.
Don't even get me started on the transgender subtext of Pleakley's "human" disguise from the original movie being completely erased in favor of him being played by a regular ass white man. Jumba doesn't have his accent, they made him more villainous, and his "human" disguise is a non-fat white man—which part of his original joke, I know, is that he was bigger and was more clumsy in the movie because of his size, but to have the main shape of his character completely removed is also fucking weird.
This live action movie is a desecration to the original. I encourage you to not see it, please. Don't give Disney any of your money on this one. Just watch the original. Please just watch the original.
The new message in the live action movie is disturbing and gross.
This is one of the most disrespectful live actions I've seen and heard of. I implore you to not watch it.
I have not seen this movie nor will i see this movie, I was born & raised in Hawaii & was fortunate enough to grow up around native Hawaiian culture. So let me explain how casting a white actress as Nani then putting her in brown face is not the only thing they did wrong w her character, it is definitely the worst thing they did but it isn't the only thing they did
To have Nani pursue marine science... isn't necessarily a bad thing if it was what she wanted in the original but her actual dream in the original movie was to b a professional surfer. She has surfing trophies in her room in the original movie!
surfing holds an extremely important role in Hawaiian culture its not simply a sport or past time. Surfing has roots of hundreds of years in Polynesia as a whole & in Hawaii specifically. In tht tradition u don't simply buy a board: u make it. You have to find a tree tht u feel is ur board & u make ur board yourself, that's without even mentioning tht these boards were often made from a tree considered sacred in Hawaiian cosmology
It was a native Hawaiian man, Duke Kahanamoku, who brought surfing to the world & dreamed of it becoming an Olympic sport. He's the reason Australians even know what surfing is much less how to surf. Tht board tht life guards have at beaches exists because Duke once saved every man from a sinking vessel with his surf board alone when the actual life guards had no way of getting out to the wreck bc of waves. The most prestigious surfing event is an invitation only event named for & honoring another native Hawaiian man, Eddie Aikau, who was both a phenomenal surfer & legendary life guard. There's a saying in Hawaii "Eddie would go" bc he would go out in the worst & most extreme conditions in his duty as a life guard when his fellow life guards wouldn't. To remove Nani from tht heritage not just by casting a white woman in brown face but abandoning her connection to surfing compounds the disrespect native Hawaii is put thru in this remake especially when the original movie was so respectful & caring of the native Hawaiian culture
A movie abt fucking surfing penguins is more respectful of surfing than this movie, don't give this movie money by going to see it & don't give it money by streaming it
EDIT: also going to study marine science on the continent just shows how little actual research was done bc one of the most sought after marine science schools is IN HAWAII
Also grew up in Hawaii, and I don’t plan to ever see this movie because everything I learned about it made me more and more angry about it, even before all this bullshit. The original movie is, to me, one of the most accurate depictions of Hawaii I’ve seen, and has very strong and important messages about family. Also there’s an autistic-coded kid!!! Who is treated with respect and as a person by the narrative!!!! From my perspective and understanding, everything relating to Hawaiian culture, both past and present, in the original was portrayed with respect and beauty.
The fact that they have apparently trashed all that makes me angry. Don’t even give the film the respect of hate-watching this.
Also where the fuck did marine bio come from? Don’t get me wrong, marine biology is one of my special interests, but like??? Nani has a poster of Duke in her room, one of her whole connections to David is that they both love surfing, she’s clearly good at it judging by the amount of trophies she has in her room, and why the hell would you go to California of all places when Hawaii has one of the most fascinating, diverse, and unique marine ecosystems AND they have some of the best marine bio and environmental programs available???? And some of the coolest conservation internships?????? AND (last I checked, at least, maybe this changed) PRIORITY AND SCHOLARSHIPS ARE OFTEN GIVEN TO NATIVE HAWAIIANS?????????
Basically, the movie’s shit. Don’t fucking watch it.
^all of this thank u for this addition, reblog this version too please
gun to my head i would rather die than read this fic. what the fuck are you even doing at this point. whats the fucking point?

like i'm sorry but we as a fandom have to stay firm on our anti-AI values. we cannot suddenly start giving AI a pass when it's something we "want to see" like destiel kisses. it's not suddenly fine. we're not going to start using AI to make fanfic scenes come to life or audio AI to make characters "say" stuff we want to hear. you have GOT to be firm on your anti-AI stance. if you start making exceptions then suddenly anything will fly. fandom is for real art and creations made by real people. no AI fanfics. no AI art. no AI rendered "bonus" scenes. no AI audio. none of it has a place here.
SO HERE IS THE WHOLE STORY (SO FAR).
I am on my knees begging you to reblog this post and to stop reblogging the original ones I sent out yesterday. This is the complete account with all the most recent info; the other one is just sending people down senselessly panicked avenues that no longer lead anywhere.
IN SHORT
Cliff Weitzman, CEO of Speechify and (aspiring?) voice actor, used AI to scrape thousands of popular, finished works off AO3 to list them on his own for-profit website and in his attached app. He did this without getting any kind of permission from the authors of said work or informing AO3. Obviously.
When fandom at large was made aware of his theft and started pushing back, Weitzman issued a non-apology on the original social media posts—using
his dyslexia;
his intent to implement a tip-system for the plagiarized authors; and
a sudden willingness to take down the work of every author who saw my original social media posts and emailed him individually with a ‘valid’ claim,
as reasons we should allow him to continue monetizing fanwork for his own financial gain.
When we less-than-kindly refused, he took down his ‘apologies’ as well as his website (allegedly—it’s possible that our complaints to his web host, the deluge of emails he received or the unanticipated traffic brought it down, since there wasn’t any sort of official statement made about it), and when it came back up several hours later, all of the work formerly listed in the fan fiction category was no longer there.
THE TAKEAWAYS
1. Cliff Weitzman (aka Ofek Weitzman) is a scumbag with no qualms about taking fanwork without permission, feeding it to AI and monetizing it for his own financial gain;
2. Fandom can really get things done when it wants to, and
3. Our fanworks appear to be hidden, but they’re NOT DELETED from Weitzman’s servers, and independently published, original works are still listed without the authors' permission. We need to hold this man responsible for his theft, keep an eye on both his current and future endeavors, and take action immediately when he crosses the line again.
THE TIMELINE, THE DETAILS, THE SCREENSHOTS (behind the cut)
reblog if you’ve read fanfictions that are more professional, better written than some actual novels. I’m trying to see something

We were robbed of more Ivan’s covers.
We were robbed of “sibling idol” duo from Ivan and Sua.
We were robbed of “actor au (idol unit)” duo from Ivan and Luka.
We were robbed of “doll-like” trio from Ivan, Sua and Luka.
(I’m just saying the 3 of them together would be making bank and hopefully drain those aliens of their finances and life resources)
Okay, this is very random. But I first thought of orv when I saw this…

Did Luka just casually ask the aliens to put giant pictures of Ivan during the event
I mean, my boi did all those photoshoots, interviews and modeling. Gotta make use of the pictures somehow, since they take a while to edit…

Just gonna ramble, so please feel free to ignore my nonsense. But feel free to interact, I need more people to discuss with… on that note.
Considering that round 6+7 happened on the same day, which first off weird since 7 is supposed to be the final. Like it would make since if round 5+6 were on the same day (since they are semifinals) and 7 on another day leading up to it.
But like for the aliens, how does that pacing work? Like how much time has pass since this season of Alien Stage? In what way would this be profitable for them, this “quick” entertainment? Especially when there are fan favorites from the aliens, for them to end a contestant like that???
Like we have my precious boi, Ivan. He’s literally a model, ambassador, has a bunch of sponsorships, and from my understanding his alien guardian is a pretty high ranking one. (My poor baby, I know with r7, it’s basically reaffirmed that he’s dead (ignoring the fact that people from patreon stated that it was confirmed a while ago) but pls let him be alive somehow unless that entails more suffering for him (which I can think of plenty ways it could go) in which case nvm leave him be, since technically the way it ended was nice end for his story…)
Then we have Luka, who the aliens love like crazy. Like you can hear the screams of the crowd when he first enters the stage in r5. Plus the fact that the aliens would also hold up signs for him (like “Prince”. Like this sad poor manipulative pathetic ass 30 yrs old of a man have no privacy and is also constantly under a lot of attention and scrutiny. (Granted this mf-er is still alive and well, considering that r7 was probably rigged/a trap)
Till was also a pretty intriguing contestant. One that they label as a “Super Rookie”. And like his alien guardian (I’m assuming at the very least) is constantly bragging about him and his talents. Like if they did rigged r7 and he had let them do that cause the death of his pet, that’s like a slap to it’s face?!??
Plus, weren’t they trying to promote having “human pets” despite the general alien public concerns of human rebellion? Like that’s why they had Alien Stage be a thing, to promote the pets. But now they are here setting up a trap for the rebellion to be caught on 4D…
Bruh idk
I think a lot about how we as a culture have turned “forever” into the only acceptable definition of success.
Like… if you open a coffee shop and run it for a while and it makes you happy but then stuff gets too expensive and stressful and you want to do something else so you close it, it’s a “failed” business. If you write a book or two, then decide that you don’t actually want to keep doing that, you’re a “failed” writer. If you marry someone, and that marriage is good for a while, and then stops working and you get divorced, it’s a “failed” marriage.
The only acceptable “win condition” is “you keep doing that thing forever”. A friendship that lasts for a few years but then its time is done and you move on is considered less valuable or not a “real” friendship. A hobby that you do for a while and then are done with is a “phase” - or, alternatively, a “pity” that you don’t do that thing any more. A fandom is “dying” because people have had a lot of fun with it but are now moving on to other things.
I just think that something can be good, and also end, and that thing was still good. And it’s okay to be sad that it ended, too. But the idea that anything that ends is automatically less than this hypothetical eternal state of success… I don’t think that’s doing us any good at all.
