Thankyou. This post is the reality check every fandom needs right now.
We’ve all seen the rather… Explosive and often hateful dialogue regarding content on Ao3. Obviously from my previous post it should be clear I am fully against the labeling and censorship demanded by some people on Tumblr. Since my mad has nicely resolved I figured I would explain just why I feel the whole discord is ludicrous. Beyond the fact that censorship is most always abused, narrow-minded and wrong-headed, I think the idea that Ao3 shouldn’t host fiction involving rape, underage content etc because it is upsetting or triggering to some people misses a very important point. The point that it misses is that it is one each of us to protect ourselves. This idea that anyone is entitled to have their metaphorical hand held when interacting with fandom deeply disturbs me.
As someone with very real, and very debilitating mental illness, I loathe the idea that anyone but the person with the issue or illness or experience be responsible for safeguarding their comfort and health. There have been people in my life that have excluded me for my sake, instead of allowing me to decide if I was capable of attending or managing the situation. While the intent in each case was good, the result is infantilizing. Over the course of my recovery from a very dark and helpless place, the power of my choices became very important to me, and I fully believe it is our choices, especially when we are struggling with mental health, that place the most significant wrong in our recovery.
We all make bad choices, we all make choices that harm ourselves and others. But in Ao3, and fandom at large there are many tools with which to protect ourselves. There are absolutely genres of fiction, both professionally published and fan created that I will not read because they disturb me. This does not mean that those that enjoy these works, or create these works are wrong. All this means is that I need to not read this for my own comfort and health, and really that’s an easy thing to do. Tags are so common now that in most cases we can avoid those things that hurt us. We can create search settings on Ao3 that block the content we don’t want to see, and generally we can all enjoy our fandoms, safe.
Sometimes an author will not use the correct tags, likely just out of forgetfulness, inexperience, not malice. In these cases, which have been my experience outside the norm, the best thing to do is to send a polite message to the author, mentioning a concern regarding tags, and then move on. This does not discount the discomfort that comes from having your illness or memories triggered, but life is not sanitized, we are going to get triggered. It’s how we respond to being harmed that matters. We don’t recover for our wounds by banning fiction, by hurling abuse at someone, or any of that garbage. We recover with time, and we recover with will, and that is on us.

When your fav fanfic updates after a 3 year hiatus
Finally,after a solid month of fighting with design choices, I have completed a blue Pearl Jazz(transformers) design for a Steven Universe AU. I chose to make her gem specifically a Tahitian Blue Pearl because even though there are pearls that are dyed certain colors in order to cut corners and prices, I wanted her to be a naturally dark blue Pearl which are far more rare and valuable(at least that’s what the internet says about pearls lol). Thank you very much @theparallelwall for letting me base her design on your human fem Jazz, I hope I did her justice!^_^
Guys! Transformers fans! We must unite and sign this petition to keep 'Transformers Fall of Cybertron' on steam and other gamimg platforms. It'd be a fragging shame to let it get taken down, thus taking away the opportunity for others to experience it's awesomeness! Show these game companies that same fandom energy that got us the tfp tag back! 😂And don't forget to share this petition if you can! 😆❤
Decided to share my tea and donut break time snack with the local Prowl gang Patrol whom MOST CERTAINLEY wouldn't have beat me with a sack of potatoes in my sleep for NOT sharing.👀🍩☕
