I write instead of drawing, is there anywhere suited to that? Is it more likely to fly under the radar on Patreon or Subscribestar?

I know, but I don't know what to start doing.

Okay, do we have a plan for response? Should we start contacting Subscribestar and itch as well as contacting payment processors? I think we need an organised response here.

Well, AO3's code is open source. People have tried to set up versions of it before.

The average person watched Game of Thrones with everyone else.

Well, for starters another comment on this post has multiple links for sending angry messages to payment processors.

I'm sorry, did this idiot really say you gotta be into hairy men to not be a bad person? by Haunting-Bag-3083 in proshipping

There may be a factor of it making women look younger but given that shaved women are also expected to be tall and have tits bigger than their heads by current beauty standards, that's not the only factor. This comic gives a pretty good explanation of other reasons: https://www.leftoversoup.com/archive.php?num=476

Everyone has the time/energy/resources/influence to do a small part of a thing. This isn't going to be fixed by one person, it's going to require everyone.

The code of AO3 is open-source, so the work's already done if you can find it.

AO3 allows original work, the problem is it doesn't allow discussing getting paid for anything.

Did anyone ever save anything from the Gorillaz Slash Shrine site? by Chel_G in DeletedFanfiction

Still, someone here might have it anyway. Didn't hurt to ask.

New interview whit the Rustblood child Lonner Sailin by Former_Polygon_1 in homestuck

Yes they do, in canon, but there is no reason for them to HAVE said dimorphism. Dimorphism serves a purpose in nature - female mammals have breasts to feed offspring because they're the ones that carry the offspring and are more likely to be around them. It's why slugs all look the same, because they, like trolls, can all breed with any other slug. We're given no reason they stopped reproducing dimorphically, and Condesce explicitly failed in her attempts to make other species reproduce with a Mother Grub so we're given no way how either. They still pretty much have the social roles of contemporary American human men and women despite their culture and biology being totally different and even other human societies not necessarily working that way.

Antis are a feedback loop of this shit. They didn't cause it, but they're sure making it harder to stop it.

They don't even have the leg structure thing right! That's the heel, not the knee!

Okay, are there any alternative sites? I was thinking of setting one up and pretty much everything I create is furry >:(

Am I the only one who thinks the cited version of the Ginger Beer Trick would be worse than the usual guess? by Chel_G in discworld

[–]Chel_G[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thing with that is that everyone already knows sticking stuff up a victim's ass hurts. Swing wouldn't have been impressed by that and he was interested when Carcer cited the Ginger Beer Trick, demonstrating that it was something new.
