One thing i find really interesting is that at one point it was said that Zoan type divil fruits influence their users, wich would put more reason behind why luffy seems to liberate entire countrys for something as simple as a single bowl of rice. His devil fruit literally makes him a god, and a common offering for gods is food, so when people give him food and tell him about their problems he automatically wants to help them since they technically made an offering
No One Owes You
I saw a post in the AO3 group on FB saying someone commented on their fanfic saying that they shouldn't promise something when they can't deliver because the author had been having a hard time updating their fic.
It sucks when you have to wait on a new chapter and you're really invested in a story but NO. ONE. IN. THE. FANFIC. COMMUNITY. OWES. YOU. THEIR. TIME.
It's hard juggling fics when there are other things in life. Work, school, obligations that require an author to do as such (may it be if they are a caretaker, parent, etc), and mental health is a huge factor. No one can anticipate 100% when something can be updated if it's 1: a hobby, and 2: they have lives.
Not everyone lives in a basement constantly reading and typing all day.
Mental health is a HUGE thing here and it's additionally hard when motivation is a struggle, especially for those with say, ADHD and depression. A LOT of authors deal with mental health and writing is their outlet, but struggling with motivation happens.
TLDR; LIFE HAPPENS AND IT DOES NOT REVOLVE AROUND YOU!
So just don't be a shallow jack-off to the authors. People are trying their best.
It just sort of rustled my jimmies because I saw a few posts by that point of authors receiving crap comments like those. Like, your life, mental health, and wellbeing is so important and much more important than a fic. Most of the time, people don't even get paid for it; they do it because it's fun, comforting, and/or they look to hone in and improve on their skill. It's entertainment for the reader; no one is saving lives here.
Sometimes I open Ao3 as one would a fridge in the middle of the night. Hungry, but not willing to commit to anything that is in there and hopping a miracle will make something new and appetising appear out of thin air if only I close it and open again.
🔹 Someone else's fiction cannot cause you physical harm.
🔹If someone else's fiction is causing you emotional or psychological harm, or distress, you can put it down and not read/watch it.
🔹Your emotional well-being is not the responsibility of fiction writers.
🔹Someone else's fiction is not about your personal trauma.
🔹When reading or watching fiction, you always have the power. You can always stop. You are never reading fiction without your own consent.
🔹Fiction writers are not responsible for other people's mental health.
🔹The content of a piece of fiction does not reflect on the morality of its author.
🔹Just because someone writes about bad things happening, doesn't mean they want those things to happen.
🔹Don't like? Don't read.

I don’t know if anyone has ever done this before but, here ya go… The Different Types of Fanfiction!
I probably left a few out, but these are the most common, compared to their base fiction’s canon plot. Enjoy! XD

There’s a plant called the “TomTato” which is a cherry tomato plant with potatoes as roots. It yields large quantities of both tomatoes and spuds.
To all One Piece AO3 writers!! There is a Wattpad account with DOZENS of stolen stories. I've already reported them for stealing mine (Loving Luffy and Secondary Emotions). I've reached out to the authors of stories I recognized but there were a lot I didn't recognize! If you are a writer on AO3 that does MiShanks, Dofuwani, Rouge centric, Luffy centric, or Dadodile you should look for your fic in here and report it as well!!
PLEASE REPOST THIS SO IT CAN REACH MORE AUTHORS SO THEY CAN KNOW IF THEY ARE BEING STOLEN FROM!
oh i love leaving comments on ao3, you gave me pretty words and i give you my little words, oh i loved it, oh i have to tell you i loved it, ohhh do you know which was my favourite part? i'm gonna tell you, also it was a wonderful job and and and
Some of you would not survive waiting months to years for a WIP to update.
Look at me, listen to me: A couple of months is way too early to think a fic is abandoned or dead. A year is often too early. Internalize this.
every writing tip article and their mother: dont ever use adverbs ever!
me, shoveling more adverbs onto the page because i do what i want: just you fucking try and stop me

Please go watch Sex Explained on Netflix. Not only is it a great resource for the basic sex education that is sorely lacking in the U.S., but some of ya’ll need to take a deep breath and remember the difference between fantasy vs reality. This purity culture thing that we’re going through right now is directly harmful to responsible, healthy sexual expression. BTW this woman, Lisa Diamond, is a noted psychologist and has been pushing for greater understanding of womens sexuality as a whole.
Saw a post like this with negative outlook so I asked for it to be fixed
