Something I’ve been seeing lately is some ppl talking about bringing an algorithm to AO3 and all I can say is please, for the love of fucking god, do not. I like how AO3 doesn’t have an algorithm. I love the search function. You want something it’s easy to find. Equal opportunity for everyone to get their stuff out there.

I also think algorithms would ruin the culture there. AO3 is not social media, it’s an archive (like a library in a way) and should be kept as such.

BATS HAVE A NEW LOOK

OH THEY ARE SO CUTE

can you imagine how freaky shark mermaids would be like unlike sharks, shark mermaids would have actual arms/hands and could rely on touching things with their hands to see if they’re prey rather than having to bite like sharks do. like youre just swimming in the ocean and suddenly you feel a strong grip on your leg, you freak the FUCK out because uh what????? the fuck??? youre swimming alone in the ocean??

a head pops out of the water, dorsal fin pointed from its back and it just points at you and says in a low whisper: “i thought you were a seal. please dont swim alone like this, im sorry i scared you i just wanted to see what you are” and then disappears back into the depth. what the fuck.

It disturbs me how many people don’t know the anatomy of a pen/pencil/brush/stylus/tool of choice when held by an artist. I would have thought this was common knowledge!

There is a tube inside your tool of choice that is filled with art. When you first pick it up for the day, there’s a very small blockage (the red part in the diagram that I have helpfully provided for you) of bad or awkward art that has sunk down and settled near the tip. The only way to get rid of it is to draw it out onto a page/canvas.

Once you do that, you can get to the good art! It’s totally normal. It happens to everyone. That’s why people do warmups before they draw - they know that awkward art is lurking right near the tip, so they’re getting rid of it.

New artists especially seem to not know that it’s there, and sometimes they might think their bad art blockage is never ending, but if you keep drawing, you’ll get to the good art. Sometimes that awkward art blockage can build up a little bit if you go a long time without drawing, too. Just keep going, though. I promise you that you can break through it, if you just keep going.

ah.. more squid..

like i'm sorry but we as a fandom have to stay firm on our anti-AI values. we cannot suddenly start giving AI a pass when it's something we "want to see" like destiel kisses. it's not suddenly fine. we're not going to start using AI to make fanfic scenes come to life or audio AI to make characters "say" stuff we want to hear. you have GOT to be firm on your anti-AI stance. if you start making exceptions then suddenly anything will fly. fandom is for real art and creations made by real people. no AI fanfics. no AI art. no AI rendered "bonus" scenes. no AI audio. none of it has a place here.

Do you think Stede WANTED to put some of that yummy lavender soap in the breakup box for Ed?

Like...

Lucius, trying to get Stede out of his funk: Alright, first things first. We need to get rid of everything he left here. (Gets a box and plops it in front of Stede; starts putting stuff in it)

Lucius: And I'm talking everything, his jacket, his guns-

Stede (reminiscently): He only has one gun

Lucius: okay, well if he did have extra guns, they would go in the box. Now get up and help me.

*a few moments later*

Lucius: Alright, that should be it- Captain?

Stede: Yes?

Lucius: I'm pretty sure this silk jacket is yours.

Stede: Well, he kept holding onto it whenever he was in here, so I figured he'd like to have it.

Lucius: Captain, this box is meant to be a way to let yourself be petty and throw it in his face that you don't need any part of him and he doesn't get to have any part of you. You don't put stuff in here just because you think he'll like it.

Stede: *sigh* alright.

Lucius: *nods*

Stede: Can I at least put some of the lavender soap in there? I think he'd really appreciate it-

Lucius: IT ISN'T A CARE PACKAGE!
