I.d: it's a comic strip of Mace Windu. In the first panel he sits in the council room with his fingers together and a pink wig. He says, "bitches ain't shit and they ain't say nothing, Skywalker". Anakin replies off-screen, "yes, master Windu.". In the second panel it's Mace's face in a close-up. He says, "a hundred motherfuckers can't tell me nothing, Skywalker." In purple shiny letters. Anakin replies, "Yes, master Windu" with a cartoon face that look exasperated in his speech bubble. End of I.d.

Friendly reminder that fan-made content (fanart, fanfic, fanvids, etc) are:

extremely time consuming. Remember someone actually took time out of their life to create that, time they could’ve used to, idk, sleep, for example

entertainment you’re consuming for free. I can’t stress this enough: you’re enjoying someone else’s craft for free. You paid exactly zero money to look at/read/watch it.

S H A R E D  with you, not made for you. This is the most important point: someone created that, put it online and you found it. No one forced you to consume that fanwork, you C H O S E  to do it. 

Whenever you feel like leaving a mean comment, anonymous hate or make a ~clever post about how ‘lol look at all of these overused tropes every fic writer crams into their fics’ remember you’re being a dick to someone who shared their work with you. You’re not being funny, you’re not being edgy, you’re not being brave for calling something out - you’re being a dick.

A Legion of Brothers Joe Hogan

A lot of deep sea creatures are coloured red, but since the colour blends in so well with dark water it just ends up looking black or dark blue. 

In short, combined with the horn-like crown, submerged home, and pitchfork/trident, Poseidon is just another name for the Devil.

if you’re doing black edits of a character please please please use a color palette for reference so your edit doesn’t end up looking racist (like orange/red) here are some good ones

AO3 Work Search Tips: Archive Warnings

If you’re like me, you use the AO3 Work Search form all the time to help zero in on the fics you want to read. But this form has some weird quirks. Take the “warnings” section for example:

What do I do if I want to search for fics that don’t include Major Character Death? If I just check the MCD tag like so:

Then my search brings up all fics that DO contain MCD!

I can instead choose “No Archive Warnings Apply” of course, but that will also rule out “Violence”, “Non-Con”, and “Underage” and maybe I’m OK with those. All I want to do is to avoid MCD, that’s all.

I can try adding -“major character death” to the search terms, but doing so will also rule out any fics tagged with benign variations like “temporary major character death”.

What I want to do is specifically avoid fics which use the MCD archive warning. So how do I do that?

You need to make use of the specialized search parameter terms that AO3 actually sends to its servers when you use the work search form. For the archive warnings, these are as follows:

Chose not to use = warning_ids:14

None Apply = warning_ids:16

Violence = warning_ids:17

MCD = warning_ids:18

Rape = warning_ids:19

Underage = warning_ids:20

So, if I want to rule out MCD and only MCD, I search for “-warning_ids:18″ (the hyphen before the search term means “not”) by entering that into the “Any Field” search bar:

And voila! All fics except those with MCD warnings!

If you want to avoid violence or non-con or underage instead, simply change the warning_ids number to the one you want to rule out. You can also rule out more than one at a time, like so:

Combine this with your other favorite search terms and happily find the fics you want and avoid those you don’t :)

You can use variations on this trick to more accurately search for specific categories and ratings too. If people are interested, I’ll make a separate post about those.
