Another idea I've come up with is to register under my real name—either on the Canadian and/or American registry(/ies)—but hide the titles in the content; because it seems that while anyone can search titles and names, they can't sreach actual content.
First,
do what I was intending to do: letters-to-self, videos near construction or similar (real life) sites, and maybe upload in places such as Internet Archives—if possible.
https://creativecommons.org/about/platform//
https://archive.org
Second,
register my works as [some number] for a title under [my real name]:
e.g. Stories 12345678 by Joe Schmoe
The real titles, e.g. The CMNF Club, will be part of the story—and accessible only by me.
Third,
Upload the content on my MH Wiki, then LushStories, then other sites, under their real titles, as DMBFFF, releasing it into the public domain.
If others want to read such, great!
If they want to make copies or derivatives, that's okay too.
If, say, Amazon wants to hire a prominent porn star to read an altered, registered, and licensed, versions of my stories and make big bucks off them while not paying me, again, no problem. I'll praise the effort if praiseworthy while still criticizing Amazon in general and for making derivatives of my work copyrighted.
If, however, Amazon starts to tell others that they can't post copies of my work as such infringes on "their copyrights," I can opt to get involved as my real name. Maybe the defendant(s) can pay me to get a copy(/ies) from the copyright registry, which they can use against Amazon. A possible verdict or settlement is that Amazon can maintain copyright on their derivatives, while the originals remain free. If my accounts on other sites are hacked and the hacker insists on licenses, at least the older copies will still be in the public domain to be posted elsewhere.

Something to prove?
Dude, you really need to start doing at least a tiny bit of research before reflexively responding.
Meisha Tate was at one time the top female fighter on Earth. She choked out Holly Holm to become the UFC 135lb champion. It's a given that she will out technique these guys... but she out muscles them. She submitted one of these little pansies by a standing guillotine choke where she lifted him off the ground.
She was apparently taking it seriously, they apparently weren't.
Were they allowed to punch her?
Nah, can't punch a woman—she's too delicate.
and yeah, I don't know too much about UFC or MMA. Is she allowed to trip them with shoes on, and why weren't they wearing any?
Of course your "Personally, I would love to have Miesha toss me around like that... " comment suggest something erotic. Whatever. No problem, but let's not pretend it was a real match.

Well, for one thing, Lush isn't U.S. based, which means they would likely recognize your copyright as defined in the Byrne convention, and could make a reasonable legal argument to defy a U.S. copyright filing by someone else. Technically you do have copyright immediately upon creation of the work. Places like Canada, the U.K., the EU, etc. will recognize that with sufficient proof of origin. ...
I did not know that. Thanks.
Again, I don't mind people copying my work, making derivatives, and making big bucks (if they can) with such; I just don't want some weasel to register it as thons, and then use such registration to suppress others, myself included.
As I think of it, what if someone tried to suppress non-American sites using American registrations? Would I have chances with my own evidence of being the creator in non-American courts, and with that better chances of keeping my stuff on non-American sites?
Another thought that came up in regards to hacking is others might also be vulnerable, but for some of the safeguards I mentioned.
Finally, after my last post, I wondered if the mailing-stuff-to-oneself is completely useless as there might be a judge who'd allow it. Unlikely, but might be worth the chance with some postage costs.

Quote by WannabeWordsmith
Using an online collab tool such as Google Docs is possible to keep a rolling version history and timestamps of changes (plus allows easy rollback if you decide to reinstate something you deleted) but Google can - and probably do - scrape your content to provide you relevant ads, which leaks information no matter how much privacy they claim to provide. Plus, it's on their servers so any spotty admin can access it or reset your password in exchange for a few shekels, a handful of magic beans, or unimaginable violence from a determined third party. ...
Now that's an idea.
I suppose I can copy and paste relevant changes to Google Docs.
As for the password resets, I'm more concerned about hackers.
By the way people, while I think my username, "DMBFFF", is reasonably unique—save for things such as DMBF (Dave Matthews Band Fan), BFFF (Ben Folds Five Fan), and dmbfck (which I didn't guess until I started to use DMBFFF!)—I must have made sufficient enemies on 4chan and 8chan as the "DMBFFF"s on Google and Tumblr aren't me but likely squatters. Of course my accounts can endorse each other, but I should have signed up on Google earlier. Their TOS requires one to use one's real name, which I pretty well never do on the internet, but I later noticed their TOS didn't require that I'd be truthful about my personal information—a loophole I exploited in the account name I created there and currently use.
You live, you learn.

...
Using track changes in word processors is an option but is a pain. So I do exactly what Twisted_Skald suggests: keep multiple versions, bumping the version number every few days/weeks depending on how much editing I'm doing.
...
but the date and time of upload is recorded, which is another line of defence in any infringement claim.
I keep old files, and yes, I copied a few to other drives.
The site mega.nz requires me to use my real name and be truthful about it. Still, it might be useful to some others.
Again, thanks.

What I meant was that as a European if I put my work on the Kindle authors programme I'd get an official publication date, and the invoice from Amazon would prove that I was the one who put it there.
...
Not sure if that's helpful to you but I hear it is accepted in court as proof of the history of a work.
It is helpful.
Thanks.

Quote by RejectReality
If you reside in the U.S., and you don't file for formal copyright ( Keeping in mind that you can create compilations of several works and file for a copyright on the archive under a single title ) you have zero protection in the U.S.
...
( If you see your work stolen and posted on Amazon for profit, be sure to report it on any site you post on, so other authors can take action on their stolen work as well )
Thanks for the info.
However, if I understand correctly, one's work is copyrighted the moment one creates it. Registration is more being sensible (generally)—sort of like oral contracts: legally binding, but hard to prove in court if the other party is adversarial—better get it in writing, maybe even get a lawyer if it's a major contract.
Again, my concerns, I suppose now, are what if my passwords are hacked and what if the sites change? So far, alt accounts of those permitting such might help insofar I can make them harder to hack (unlike my current accounts, passwords, computers, and internet connections), and multiple sites can help against a site changing.
I suppose my position as one putting stuff into the public domain would put me on the defensive in court cases and thus suffer less of a burden of proof.
e.g.
1. I video my work near a construction site.
2. I upload it on a number of sites, giving first dibs to my own MH wiki and LushStories, releasing it into the public domain.
3. Industry weasels copy my works and register them.
4. Industry weasels threaten LushStories against alleged copyright vios.
5. LushStories either:
a. tells them to FO: LS stands by the dates of the uploads.
b. caves in.
6. In the case of a., great. In b., oh well, at least it was hosted for a while. I might then decide to pick fights with the weasels, even if I don't know who the are, by blazing the internet with my work and daring them to sue me.
or,
4. Industry weasels hack my accounts and delete everything.
5. I create new, harder to hack accounts, post the works and screenshots, and invite all to copy—assuming others haven't already made copies, even derivatives.
I'm also interested in these:

Un día me encontré con esta obra casualmente se mimetizaba con el sonido ambiente, fue en una casa de playa , por lo que no era fácil oír por el intenso sonido del mar, estaba atenta, quería escuchar que era lo que realmente sonaba, y no lo encontraba, hasta que aparecen fantasmagóricamente las voces soprano, despacio, atrás de todo, incorporándose poco a poco sutilmente la encuentro reproduciéndose en un lector de cd , aparece mi amigo Gerardo Figueroa, y me presenta a Eliane Radigue, máxima exponente de la música electrónica desde los años en que compartía con Pierre Schaeffer. y Henry en los años 60.............. nunca mas pude encontrar este disco, hasta hoy....por eso lo comparto. tiene la simpleza y sutileza de mezclar los sonidos puros y perderse infinitamente en las islas resonantes...

translated. One day I found this work coincidentally blending in with the ambient sound, it was in a beach house, so it was not easy to hear from the intense sound of the sea, I was attentive, I wanted to hear what it really sounded, and not I found it, until the soprano voices appear spookily, slowly, behind everything, gradually incorporating the encounter reproducing in a CD player, my friend Gerardo Figueroa appears, and introduces me to Eliane, Radigue, the greatest exponent of electronic music since the years I shared, with Pierre Schaeffer. and Henry in the 60s .............. I could never find, this album again, until today ... that's why I share it. It has the simplicity and subtlety of mixing pure sounds and getting lost infinitely in the resonant islands ...

Interesting to notice how a lot (if not most?) of the pioneers of ambient and electronic music from the 60s across to the early 80s were women..Eliane Radrigue, Laurie Spiegel, Pauline Oliveros, Daphne Oram, Delia Derbyshire, Charlotte Barron etc....

I think this is for various reasons; computer operating was considered 'women's work' as it delt with much more tedious, repetitive systems ie punch cards and the fact that female composers were told that certain facets of the music industry were effectively closed to them, namely that of conductor, so in using electronic instrumentation they were able to command an entire "orchestra" in a permissible avenue.

Atonal yet evocative. Amelodic yet expressive. Aharmonic yet synchronized. One does not listen so much as submit. Like echoes in a grotto or ripples across water, the slight changes of sounds do not create a melody so much as the anticipation of a melody. This reality is formless, timeless. What does it mean? How should it end? Should it end? Be alone. Listen to this on headphones. Maybe the search for meaning is the meaning.

Quote by seeker4
Urban Dictionary is another good one for slang of all sorts, including sexual.
https://www.urbandictionary.com/
The one thing that was left out of succubus is that they sleep with men to suck out their lifeforce. And the male equivalent that attacks women is an incubus (Latin for "nightmare").
wp:Succubus
King James in his dissertation titled Dæmonologie refutes the possibility for angelic entities to reproduce and instead offered a suggestion that a devil would carry out two methods of impregnating women: the first, to steal the sperm out of a dead man and deliver it into a woman. If a demon could extract the semen quickly, the substance could not be instantly transported to a female host, causing it to go cold. This explains his view that succubi and incubi were the same demonic entity only to be described differently based on the tormented sexes being conversed with. The second method was the idea that a dead body could be possessed by a devil, causing it to rise and have sexual relations with others. However, there is no mention of a female corpse being possessed to elicit sex from men.[13]
wt:succubus
Noun
succubus (plural succubi or succubuses)
1. (mediaeval folklore) A female demon which comes to men, especially monks, in their dreams to seduce them and have sexual intercourse, drawing energy from the men to sustain themselves, often until the point of exhaustion or death.
Antonym: incubus
2. A strumpet, whore or prostitute.
If I understand correctly, the demon impersonates a woman to have sex with men for their semen. It then transforms into an incubus to impregnate women with such semen, though presumably the child/children might be monstrous.
I think I read somewhere that some crusader went off to fight and returned to find his wife pregnant. I suppose that while this could adversely affect their personal relationship, it could also diminish their status—whatsamatter, he can't control his wife?—and that she could be church-state murdered for adultery. She said that it was an incubus impersonating her husband that did it, and I think the courts accepted it.
Let it not be said that the Mediæval-types were completely inflexible.
Also, if you folks are going to have sex with astral projections of your significant others, you might want to call them first, and/or if you're living in a situation where there's no telephones, radios, or telegraphs, to may be use code words before the sex—just to be safe.

Well I go by the old fashioned Roleplayer trick. Get it printed somewhere and slap a copyright notice on it.
I can prove my work outside of here is mine because I have the original convention programme that lists me on it, and the original files from the time I wrote it.
But for work someone might actually try to make a buck on, get it self published and keep the invoice from the printer.
That way you can at least prove that the work in question was distributed officially on a certain date.
It may not be unbreakable but prove Amazon tampered with the release date, and I will go make popcorn to watch you try.
Are you saying I should, say, print out 10 copies, staple them, sell them for 25¢ each on a street corner—and wa-lah!—I'm a published and paid author?
Wikisource:What Wikisource includes#Original contributions:
Works created by Wikisource users or otherwise not published in a verifiable, usually peer-reviewed forum do not belong at Wikisource. Wikisource is not a method for an author to get his or her works published and make them available to other people, nor is it a site to discover "new talent".
Note: There are a few exceptions to this rule, as detailed under Added value to source texts above. Also note that a Wikisource contributor may make his/her own original work available (within reason!) by placing it within his/her own user namespace.
The only benefit here is I could create a similar alt account for WM projects, say "User
MBFFF's alt account"—LushStories doesn't permit alternate accounts—I understand it can get a member banned—through a rarely used computer, and rarely used account, with a very good password, to make it harder for the weasels to hack, and use it to post in Wikisources. Maybe.
As for invoices, couldn't the weasel allow that I got something printed, but allege it wasn't "wt:thons" work I originally printed?
Quote by curvygaloreQuote by DMBFFF
and again, how do I prove my originals are mine?
There is no need to provide proof. :) Unless a story is obviously plagiarised, it's assumed when a story is submitted on Lush that it's the author's own work. Hope that's helpful!
I suppose, provided my account isn't hacked or the weasels (and/or incompetents) get ownership of LushStories—like they did Tumblr, !, YouTube, and Dailymotion.
Of course, if I state in the story that the content is released into the public domain, and it becomes quite famous, there will be many who have copies of it and some might be able to prove they had such before the weasel(s) registered.
If, however, my works are quite not-popular, it won't profit the weasels.
Hmmmmmm.

Why I didn’t translate the last verse? Because it is untranslatable! Actually, it isn’t, but I couldn’t think of an English equivalent which would convey the same sense of self-sufficient happiness and don’t give a fuck to everyone else as the sentence “No duro tinindo trincando”. Tinindo trincando was a slang for doing excellent, as tinindo refers to something shining when it is polished (like a glass) and trincando indicates when something is about to break but hasn’t yet. If we take the example of a glass, the two words will sound opposite, so you have to blame popular creativity for turning two rival aspects into only one idiom. As for “No duro”, it means “In fact”, “Really” or anything like that depending on the context. I hope you enjoy the translation even with this fault.

Hi there,
Unfortunately, we don't publish fan/fic on Lush. Here's the link to help you with what is and isn't published on the site.
https://www.lushstories.com/disclaimer.aspx#submissions
If you have any original erotic fiction, please feel free to submit those stories.
Yep.
(my bold, italicization, enlarging, and colouring)
Quote by DMBFFF
... Perhaps a few weeks later, upload the fanfics/fanfixs on FFN, AO3, and 1 or 2 other MH wikis, and the erotic non-fanfics here. ...
and again, how do I prove my originals are mine?
:)
Active Ink Slinger
I think I'm mostly finished with some of my stories.
Most are erotic stories and/or descriptions of fictional places—or attempts thereof—and The Handmaids Tale fan-fixs, though I've yet to read the book or watch a single Hulu episode (looks too depressing, I'm not into (non-revenge at least) torture porn, and the other fanfics I've read on FFN and AO3 have a lot of Serena-Joy-Fred-Waterford-Offred/June-Osbourne-Nick fru-fru), though I saw the movie years ago, watched hours of YouTube videos about it, and heard Margaret Atwood talk about it in CBC 1 interviews.
First I will upload all on my MH wiki,.
Perhaps a few weeks later, upload the fanfics/fanfixs on FFN, AO3, and 1 or 2 other MH wikis, and the erotic non-fanfics here.
Of the latter, I'll also probably upload the same on a few other erotic sites a few months after that, save [a website in competition with LushStories I won't mention here], which I intend to theirs next year—I'm still ticked at them for suspending me from their forums (I think mid-morning 2 February 2020), permanently and for no reason. (even though Laurel seems to tolerate idiots like BusyBigot, belisaurius, and Rightguide)
However, there's the issue of copyright.
Because I don't believe in most so-called "intellectual property"—"information is free" and all that—it would be hypocritical of me not to release my work into the public domain.
My fanfics would be on shaky ground legally, but what I created would be available to all.
The thing is, I'm concerned some industry weasels might take my work, register such in their own names, and, say, insist that sites like yours take my stuff down because it's legally—though their trickery—theirs.
I figure if need be I could counter this by proving that I came up with it first—and perhaps this could be presented in an American or Canadian court, but how do I?
What should I do before uploading anything?
I read that the old "mail-it-to-yourself" isn't accepted, perhaps because the contending party/ies can allege that I merely mailed empty open envelops and then put "their" work into it.
Another possibility is taking pictures.
Let's say there's a building being constructed. It started 6 months ago and is scheduled for completion in another 6 months. Let's say I went near the site and took pictures of my work there, with the construction in the background—maybe multi-angled and/or a videod to do things that'd be hard to "deep fake."
"Your honour, the weasels registered my work as theirs in 2023, but this building—which is in the background of these pictures during its construction—was completed in late 2021."
Another possibility is posting them on a number of sites as a form of time-stamping, such as LushStories. I also thought Wikipedia and RationalWiki: post on my userpage, delete, but it's still in the edit history. What if my accounts are hacked, though?
I suppose I could register to the copyright office, but it sounds like a lot of fru-fru, might be expensive, and I luvs my privacy.
Given that countries have treaties to respect each other's copyright, I might shop around countries. For example, perhaps one could register with the Mexican copyright office—if it's cheaper and easier—and use their registry as proof should a site need proof that the weasels didn't come up with the work first.

Most are erotic stories and/or descriptions of fictional places—or attempts thereof—and The Handmaids Tale fan-fixs, though I've yet to read the book or watch a single Hulu episode (looks too depressing, I'm not into (non-revenge at least) torture porn, and the other fanfics I've read on FFN and AO3 have a lot of Serena-Joy-Fred-Waterford-Offred/June-Osbourne-Nick fru-fru), though I saw the movie years ago, watched hours of YouTube videos about it, and heard Margaret Atwood talk about it in CBC 1 interviews.
First I will upload all on my MH wiki,.
Perhaps a few weeks later, upload the fanfics/fanfixs on FFN, AO3, and 1 or 2 other MH wikis, and the erotic non-fanfics here.
Of the latter, I'll also probably upload the same on a few other erotic sites a few months after that, save [a website in competition with LushStories I won't mention here], which I intend to theirs next year—I'm still ticked at them for suspending me from their forums (I think mid-morning 2 February 2020), permanently and for no reason. (even though Laurel seems to tolerate idiots like BusyBigot, belisaurius, and Rightguide)
However, there's the issue of copyright.
Because I don't believe in most so-called "intellectual property"—"information is free" and all that—it would be hypocritical of me not to release my work into the public domain.
My fanfics would be on shaky ground legally, but what I created would be available to all.
The thing is, I'm concerned some industry weasels might take my work, register such in their own names, and, say, insist that sites like yours take my stuff down because it's legally—though their trickery—theirs.
