hanks to all of you who were so patient and understanding as we worked
on these updates the last few days. If you only just heard about the site
during our hiatus, you can now check out our FAQ to learn all about us! (Note, however, that the site is currently getting about 15 times the usual amount of traffic, so you may still have some problems accessing it).
As for invitations, we are going to wait a little bit before sending them out– we want to make sure there aren’t any bugs resulting from the many changes we made to the site over the last few days, and wait until traffic hopefully mellows a bit. We will let you know when we do start sending out invitations, though because we have thousands to send out we will likely send them over the course of a couple days. Thanks for your patience!

twitter / insta / devart are last resorts
i don’t understand pixiv please nobody ask me to go there i tried
i’ve considered patreon but i don’t like the idea of making fanart as an obligation. it’s supposed to be something fun i do in my spare time, not a monthly deadline to be met
sooo where are the nsfw fanartists emigrating to? if you know of a platform, or have had a positive experience with one, and it’s good for hosting art, please let me know in the comments. also i’m 100% cool with subscription-based platforms because they don’t rely on advertising revenue. thanks!
ALSO NOW IS THE TIME TO DONATE TO AO3 IF YOU HAVEN’t FOLKS
no one tells you what its like to be self aware of your mental illness. i know im irrationally angry and i know im just being paranoid and its the tiny piece of rational mind i have left and the unstable part of me fighting each other every second and i just want it to stop
