Like Twitter’s Super Follows, Tumblr’s Post+ lets creators choose which content they want to put behind a paywall, whether that’s original artwork, personal blog posts or Destiel fanfic. Creators can set the price for their subscriber-only content starting at $3.99 per month, with additional tiers at $5.99 and $9.99. Tumblr will take a 5% cut from creator profits.

oh no.

this could actually get very, very bad, because just ask the OTW—you cannot profit from fan fiction without running into legal issues. that’s why AO3 has to come down hard on anyone doing fic for paid commissions, posting links to their ko-fi in the author’s notes, etc.

if a tumblr user puts their fanfic behind a paywall, they are now profiting from it, and would be entirely at risk if the owner of the intellectual property in question decided to sue them. god help you if it’s disney.

and if tumblr is hosting that and also profiting… then I imagine that tumblr itself might be part of that lawsuit.

Do you know that line in The Perks of Being a Wallflower? The one that says “this one moment when you know you’re not just a sad story. You are alive.” that resonates so much with me, because it’s true, it’s so damn true!

I don’t know who needs to hear this right now, but life isn’t supposed to be one big mass of pain, it really isn’t. You are so allowed to seek for happiness, and to fight with your nails and teeth for it, to screw off people that aren’t good for you, to say no, to do whatever it is that helps you and that makes you happy. You can scream, you really can, you can rip pages, you can fuck your room up, if necessary. Feel it, because you didn’t deserve that pain, you really didn’t, friend. So rage if you need to, or lay down, or cry, or watch that movie that makes you forget everything else, or listen to that music that you hold in your heart. Let your heart rest, and maybe it won’t be that heavy when you wake up.
