So this list was made originally on Tumblr for my ease and convenience. That was before Tumblr was taken over by people so hellbent on keeping porn off its servers or whatever. So Tumblr took my rec list down, and I’m sure this looked like I took the list down in shame sometime in the past when I was going through some self-confidence issues. However I did find the original list on Tumblr. Thing is those assholes won’t let me copy over the HTML, so I mostly AO3’s HTML to recreate the list for DW. In the spirit of me doing things differently than I planned, I recreated the post on Dreamwidth but put it in a new post. Below are my original Tumblr notes—I’m keeping those intact here.

tl;dr: Fuck Tumblr. Never using it again.
