having thoughts about dnp saying the reason they wanted to write tabinof in the first place was to commemorate the era and give fans something to look back on and remember when they're older & how they consistently talked about the tatinof/tabinof era like it was an ending (or at least the end of their "peak")
the idea that in 2015!! they were preparing for their audience and community and their popularity to go away eventually so they wanted to create a physical reminder that "once upon a time there were these two guys called dan and phil who met each other on the internet who created this entire world"
it's like they were assuming the world of dan and phil and this community would be another trend and that their audience would lose interest in over time, especially after they'd just hit this massive peak. except it wasn't and we didn't
thinking about how that was almost 10 years ago and we're still here

Another fandom PSA - Bookmarks
Hello everyone, I am back with yet another informative post, since I've observed some behavior that could get out of control real fast.
Again, the point is never about shaming those who have done this, but to inform and warn about how disheartening these things can be; and what can you do to avoid hurting anyone in the future.
Let's talk about bookmarks.
Looks easy enough to add a bookmark, just type some notes — maybe to remind future you what the fic was about, maybe some random thoughts of the fic, maybe the chapter where you left of — add some tags if you are that organized and slap the bookmark to a Collection if you have that.
But I want to bring attention to this little guy:
If you are going to leave a hurtful message, at least have the decency to not leave it where the author will see it.
Authors can and will see the bookmarks! I can only speak for myself but I do check the bookmarks because sometimes people get creative and have funny Notes, or their tags are hilarious.
But, sometimes, we wonder if y'all know authors can see the bookmarks, unless you set it as a Private Bookmark.
What do I mean with hurtful bookmarks? Well:
*gestures vaguely towards these*
Granted, not all are rancid takes, but some truly give weird vibes? As in, it feels like people doesn't know authors can see their Notes and bookmarks?
You can have an opinion about the story, that's completely valid, but the option of setting it to Private Bookmark is right there.
So, as a rule of thumb, if you wouldn't like someone telling your words to your face then have the courtesy of not doing the same for someone else.
Mark it as Private if you'd rather not let the author see your Notes.
For more information about Bookmarks, AO3 provides a FAQ page.

URGENT PSA FOR ALL CAT OWNERS!!! (Trigger warning: this video talks about cats dying terribly)
This video showcases the DANGER of this litter box! It is being sold by many different companies under many different names, but they all are death traps for your cat. I AM NOT USING HYPERBOLE, THESE MACHINES KILL CATS! Please, if you are thinking of getting this machine, DO NOT GET IT! If you currently have it, THROW IT AWAY IMMEDIATELY and get one of the other litter machines mentioned in the above video. I know these machines may be on the cheaper end, BUT THEY ARE NOT WORTH YOUR CAT'S LIFE!
Again, I would like to put a massive trigger warning: this video is about a faulty product that results in the DEATHS of cats. It talks about cats being killed. So, if that is too much for you, please don't watch it. But just be aware of the dangers of this product.
PROTECT YOUR CATS, DON'T GET THIS MACHINE!
