You're never too old for space camp

@foomatic commissioned this stunningly beautiful piece for my silly little fic by @papurrcat for my birthday. You are too much, my friend, I cannot stop staring at it. Thank you for everything you are and do a thousand times over.

@papurrcat, thank you for an absolute masterpiece I will treasure for the rest of my life. Literally fell off my chair when I saw it (ask April, she was there)

speaking of Ao3 not being a social medium:

it will always need money. It’s an archive. Even if they meet their yearly donation aim now without any problem doesn’t mean it will be like this in 5 years, in 10 years, in 80 years. Yeah you read that right. Ao3 is an Archive. It intends to be available forever. Like a library. Because Ao3 *is* a library. If you want to keep your library, you wouldn’t cut its budget just because it did well last year. Maintaining a library creates running expenses. The purpose of an archive is to preserve data indefinitely, and this costs money.
