I don’t really understand the negative AO3 DOES NOTHING DON’T GIVE THEM MONEY THING. 

There is NO WAY anyone on this site doesn’t understand that servers are expensive and hosting is expensive. 

The lack of ads? Love it. L-O-V-E It. And when AO3 does a drive? It’s a banner at the top of the page. Just scroll down to read the story and *voila* it disappears!

I love what I get from AO3. I love a dedicated fic hosting site. I love the utility. As a reader I love how to search for what I read. I love that I can comment and communicate with the writers!!! And as a writer I love how it’s set up. It’s easy! It works. I also love that I can communicate with readers who like my fics. 

I donated today. I think I have actually been a member for the last 4 years. And I am going to keep being a member. I am going to keep supporting something that gives me, and millions of others, a lot of enjoyment.

Adult things arent NEARLY as complex as I thought they were growing up I just walked into bank of america and said im here to open a checking account and they said ok and opened me a checking account

If you have anxiety about being an adult, it may help to think of adult things as basically just doing a lot of quests.

Me: [googles “where do i get a passport”]
Me: [goes to that building]
Me: [asks first person I encounter] Where do I get a passport?
Them: Third floor, room twelve.
Me: [goes to that room]
Me: [asks first person I encounter] Where do I get a passport?
Them: That desk over there.
Me: [goes to that desk]
Me: Where do I get a passport?
Them: Fill out this form.
Me: [thinking] Silver key opens the garden gate, in the garden is the red key, which opens the red door, there’s a boy in the red house who tells you his dog is trapped in the old abandoned barn and can I please rescue him…

being an adult is a serious of fetch quests and waiting in lines
