"Socializing is as exhausting as giving blood. People assume we loners are misanthropes, just sitting thinking, ‘Oh, people are such a bunch of assholes,’ but it’s really not like that. We just have a smaller tolerance for what it takes to be with others. It means having to perform. I get so tired of communicating."Anneli Rufus (via airplanes)

» little escapologist: IMPORTANT PLEASE READ!!
If studying-lgbtq-people inboxes you asking to take part in questions about LGBTQ people “to help her understand” DO NOT DO IT. It is Sophie M Herold, the girl from Germany who attacks LGBTQ people and outs them to others. She is transphobic, homophobic and one of the sickest people I know. And now she’s back with a cunning new plan to get you NAME, ADDRESS, BIRTH DATE, AND PHOTO.
This girl is dangerous, and for some reason is allowed to keep making new tumblr accounts. We’ve raised awareness before and it helped, so lets do it again before she puts another persons life in danger. She collects your information and gives it out to others, she has sent letters to peoples parents outing them, other people have gotten hurt because of her. Yes, hurt.
Even if we can’t stop her again, get this message out and stop others giving her information etc.
And Sophie, you should know by now not to fuck with me again, wrong move, buddy.
This is horrible.
What a disgusting human being.
…. I agree wholeheartedly, Miss Kyle. This person is awful.

IMPORTANT. Re: Mass deletion of stories on fanfiction.net
Hello. As most of you avid FF readers may have figured out by now, fanfiction.net has been doing a mass purge of the site and getting rid of a lot of stories that break the rules. When one of my own stories was deleted and my account was suspended for three days, I figured it was just the site moderators going through and doing some kind of routine check. However, when I found out that more and more people were having their work deleted - in some cases, just because the summary was “inappropriate” - something told me I had to look into this. The facts about what’s really going on may surprise you.
The people in charge of this mass deletion of stories are not site moderators. They are normal users of the site like anyone else. If you go to their profiles, you’ll see that they even have work of their own. They call themselves Critics United and they basically have nothing better to do except sit around and comb through the site for any story that has some kind of minor infraction. They then post it on their forum (most seem to be on either this thread or this thread, also here) so that other members of the group can go en masse to the story and not only report it for violating the guidelines, but also bully the author via review.
It’s one thing to quietly report a story that you think has broken the rules without saying a word to the author about it. However, what these people are doing is bullying. Earlier today I screenshotted some of the reviews that they’ve been leaving on the stories they go after, and some of what they say is truly sickening.
These are only a few examples. If you browse through their forum you’ll be able to see just how intense they get. As you can see from the reviews I posted above, these people aren’t just “critics” - they are bullies. The “constructive criticism” they supposedly dole out is anything but - something tells me that true constructive critics would not use words like “shitfic” or “toxic crap.” And by posting the links to these stories in their forums, it enables everyone else in the group to go and bully these authors as well.
(Funny thing is, they complain when the authors respond to them with less-than-pleasant words. I wonder why.)
Anyway, I think something needs to be done. Critics United prides itself on being strict followers of the rules and site guidelines; however, they fail to notice that they themselves are also breaking an important rule - no bullying or harassment. Unfortunately I don’t think there’s an easy solution to this problem, seeing as there’s no way to report specific users - only block them. However, I dothink it is important for everyone to know exactly what is going on. I know a lot of people were upset by what’s been happening, and they deserve to know the truth.
If you have any questions please feel free to message me on here or on my fanfiction.net account. That’s all.They’re legitimately reporting stuff for being in second person? Let me guess: it breaks the rule that says you can’t involve the reader in the story. Except that’s not actually the purpose of second person.
This is ridiculous.
This is horrible - what this group is doing isn’t constructive criticism, it’s organized censorship and bullying. Jesus.
FFN has allowed this sort of activity by site “users” since at least 2001, if not earlier. They’re inherently untrustworthy and not a viable place for longterm hosting of fics.
I still have 2 AO3 invites sitting around! If you want one, hit me in my ask with the email address I should send it to.
I don’t have any AO3 invites myself, but doing a signal boost.
The fact that the site mods and admins are actually taking action on these reports - likely without even READING the stories in question, is the main reason I’m taking steps to move away from FF.net
I’m going to continue posting my drabbles and gen-fic there until the drabbles are complete (I’m currently at 161 of 221), at which point I will cease posting permanently, and only post on AO3.
I’ve requested a handful of AO3 invites, but they’re being overloaded with requests and server issues currently due to the mass influx of people leaving FF.net so it may take a while, but if any of you authors want to make the move, please let me know. I’d prefer to start giving the invites to people who actually have fic to post, rather than people who just want to interact, since you can comment/kudos on AO3 without an account, and subscribe via RSS.
the FUCK is wrong with these assholes?
Signal boosting this. Holy crap, this is horrible

Let’s not beat around the bush here…
OR SHALL WE?!
Why the fuck is she cuddling with Tampax at what appears to be a pool that is also the ocean?
I want a tampon commercial where the women are fighting zombies or some shit.
And they’re all beat up and bloody and shoving tampons into bullet wounds to stop the bleeding.
And I want one of the ladies to full-on decapitate a zombie with a machete or maybe a scythe.
And then I want her to look directly into the camera with blood running from an open wound on her forehead and say,
“For the fighting spirit.”
^ That commercial would win all of the Oscars.
That commercial would make more sense that all this faffing about through the fields of daisies and cuddling your fucking tampons bullshit…
What are you talking about?
I sit by the pool/ocean cuddle my tampons all the fucking time.
Who wants to start a tampon company with me just so we can make that commercial?
What would it be called, Tampocalypse? I’d be game if it were called Tampocalypse.
reblogging for the priceless notes
The Tampocalypse
FOR THE FIGHTING SPIRIT.
Well periods aren’t all ‘Let me parade around in my motherfucking white bikini at the beach and shake my ass around in front of the hot boys while snuggling my tampon box”
IT’S LITERALLY A BLOOD BATH!!
IT’S A WAR!
IF YOU GET IN MY WAY, FUCKER I WILL KNOCK YOU THE FUCK OUT!
Tampocalypse.
I love the internet.
I would buy the shit outta that.
This made me laugh my ass off this morning - I love this! I would buy the shit outta this.
Let’s all take a moment and appreciate the people of tumblr.
no matter what blog you have, i think everyone will reblog this just because it is that fucking great…
*Dying because all of this*
For all the women I follow because this is fucking awesome.
I still don’t understand why they take the original commentary and parasitically absorb it.
