Team Watcher released a special Pride Collection designed by our queer employees on our Society6 page.

All of the proceeds will be donated to the Southern Trans Youth Emergency Project and the Central Florida Emergency Trans Care Fund who are doing the important work on the ground to help trans Floridians get the life-saving care they need, now more than ever. We see you, we support you, we care about you. 

Speaking of fanfiction.net, did you know that while it was seven years ago and therefore obviously well out of date (though given the declining traffic over the past few years, that's not the biggest issue), some insane person (positive) on archive.org managed to do the unthinkable and archive a full snapshot of the site despite its infamous unarchivability; I didn't until I went looking for if anyone had good tips on downloading from there easily and found a reddit thread from 2016. It's here. So while I continue to fret about how goddamn difficult archiving the website in full will ever be when it inevitably collapses on us randomly, at the very least we have a snapshot of it as of 2016, in fact.

in case you were wondering why we haven't just done this again, the original re-pack is described as follows:

I have to admit, I'm surprised to see people reblogging this saying it was 'barely usable'- I was shocked by how usable it was, having expected it to be basically unnavigable unless you had a story ID etc, more like the oocities geocities backup and that sort of thing. I appreciate that it's hardly like opening up the actual website, of course, but mass backups of this type tend to be far more obtuse than this one in my experience.

ok so being a parent IS really hard but not the way you think. well its probably hard the way you think but its ALSO really hard because my toddler pronounces peanut butter like "peepee yaya". and see, because he learns from me, i can't say "peepee yaya", no matter how much i want to, because i have to teach him that it is actually pronounced "peanut butter". and dont even get me started on how he pronounces "shaun the sheep" (shit the shit)

ken getting arrested alongside barbie after she punches the guy who smacks her ass presents so many possibilities

  1. ken saw barbie punch the douchebag and was like “LET’S MAKE THIS A PARTY” and joined in on the smackdown
  2. alternatively, the guy’s friends tried to jump in and ken wasn’t having ANY of that
  3. ken saw barbie getting shoved into a big car with bright lights on the top and was like “OH BOY! can i come too?? 😊😊” and just kind of tagged along
  4. alternatively, he realized what was going on and was like “EXCUSE ME OFFICER i too have committed A Crime so please show me to The Jail with my beautiful girlfriend” so they wouldn’t be separated
  5. ken got in trouble for trying to help barbie escape but in his defense no one TOLD him resisting arrest is a crime because no one told him what being arrested or crime is
  6. ken didn’t know who these men showing up to take his girlfriend away were, but he could see she was very upset and excuse?? you cannot take barbie away from ken without her permission??? so long story short, ken punched a cop
  7. ken fully burned something down earlier and the cops were like “two birds one stone” when they came to get barbie
