trolls asking “what’s ur hemotype?” is such a funny concept to me. “hey u haven’t blushed yet or secreted any bodily fluids and none of your clothes are indicative of your status or those of your quadrants, so like…where do u fall on our oppressive biology based caste system?” absolutely wild
i mean sure w/ trollian these kids PROBABLY have solid ideas of who’s who, but i need y’all to consider like, a goldblood catfishing people pretending to be an indigo. “yeah? send some boondollars to my account and then we can meet chitinous nub to chitinous nub, big boy ;)” types a particularly bored beekeeper. they receive 2000 boons from the seadweller who thinks they’re getting a kismesis. the gold immediately blocks their IP address, deletes their account, and blows up their computer. a perfect crime.
Figment, the recently closed writing website, has just launched (after a long delay) their long-awaited successor to figment known as Underlined, where users can post their work and receive feedback, supposedly.
DO NOT USE UNDERLINED. DO NOT POST YOUR WORK ON UNDERLINED.
Underlined’s terms and conditions contains a clause stating that the rights to all your work that you post on their website belongs to them!!!!
Underlined belongs to Penguin Random House. This is an extremely dirty trick for them to play on writers, especially young writers and children, who come to the internet to get feedback and will lose the rights to their work. Please boost!!!
For my writing friends looking for an online writing community, DO NOT USE Underlined.
I went to confirm @greater-than-the-sword‘s post, because seriously publishers are still pulling this garbage? And yes, they are. If you want to check out the full terms and conditions, have at it. They are full of writers’ nightmares, a few of which I’ll highlight under the cut.
