the byproducts of the small things

i want to read a very specific fanfic and i’m so mad that i can’t (it’s sitting in my drafts) (unfinished)

so glad this post is resonating with people bc it’s still resonating with me as i am once again not working on said fanfics that i want to read

these relationships are always increasing numbers as well. so obviously we need six eleven to mean somethimg

imagine if that's the date it finally happens

"it would be so good if it was good" will haunt you but "it's extremely good, except for the one or two parts which are so bad it's genuinely kind of insulting" will straight up drive you insane

never lose hope. somewhere, a middle-aged, gender ambiguous person with an advanced degree in an esoteric field and a fiber arts hobby could be crashing out and pinning all their remaining mental health on getting obsessed with your otp. any day now, the most elegantly written 100k fanfic you have ever read is going to hit ao3. it could happen. it has happened.

On the bright side, this is a domain registrar issue rather than a server issue. Sites that were using custom domains are still up, and once this mess is resolved no files should be lost unless something else happens. Worst case scenario they would need to register a new domain. (But that would be INCREDIBLY stupid and hopefully they don't have to resort to that.) But yeah it's good to keep backups in general.
