heard someone say archive of our own should install a "dislike" button and I thought I should say this: no, there's absolutely no need for archive of our own to install a "dislike" button.

why? because archive of our own isn't tiktok or youtube or twitter/x where users can monetize their content. archive of our own is a nonprofit site run by fans for fans, which means every content — every fanfic — you see on archive of our own was made out of pure love and passion from the artists/authors.

ao3 authors write because writing about these characters is their happiness and passion. they write for themselves, but they were generous enough to share with you their creations.

they're not "content creators" the way tiktokers or youtubers or instagram models are. they don't "make content" for views and engagements that can be monetized.

so no, you don't get to "grade their works" unless they specifically and directly ask you to.

you don't get to "say what you dislike about their works" unless they specifically and directly ask you to.

you don't get to "dislike" works that are not made specifically to please you in the first place. you're just a guest in someone's house, a house in which they let you in because they were kind, you don't get to roam around their house and say what you dislike about their furniture. you don't get to roam around their house and say you "dislike their house".

of course, you can have your opinion about the house its host invites you in. but if it's a negative one and you find yourself not liking the house, the polite things for you to do is excuse yourself and leave without telling them you dislike their house.

and just because you personally dislike the house doesn't mean the house is "ugly" either. the house you dislike could be a favorite, most luxurious place to many others.

my point is, don't be entitled by wanting the rights to voice your disapproval of things that you get to enjoy for free. don't be entitled by wanting the rights to voice your disapproval of things that were made out of love and passion — things the artists made for themselves for fun.

it makes you look like an entitled jerk with main character syndrome. the universe does not revolve around you.

now repeat after me: don't like don't read. no one forces you to continue reading a fic you don't like. quietly leave instead of being rude to authors who write for free because writing is their source of comfort.

people are so used to contents that were made because it's a trend / contents like tiktok that were made with the main purpose of reaching high engagement and making profits that they forget sometimes things can be made out of love and be made just for fun. sometimes things are supposed to just be for people to enjoy, and if some people don't enjoy them, then they can simply leave without being unnecessary unkind.

How big is Optimus Prime?

(NSFW warning)

Note: this is based on the Bayverse Optimus

If we’re talking Knightverse….

Optimus Prime is 28.5 feet (868.68 cm) tall in AOE and TLK. Globally, the average man is 174cm tall. The average erect penis world wide is 12.95-13.97cm. We’re gonna work with 13.5cm to assume absolute average and for a nicer number. Let’s calculate using cross-multiplication.

Here’s the formula:

(Average male height)/(Average penile length)=(Prime’s height)/(Prime’s length)

Prime’s length is unknown, so we’ll replace it with x. Now we have:

174cm/13.5cm=868.68cm/x

Let’s do some cross multiplication!

174x = 13.5(868.68)

174x = 11727.18

X = 67.40cm or X= 26.53 inches

But wait! What about girth? That’s a great question. Let’s do the math.

Average circumference of an erect penis is 12cm. Using the same method as before, we find that his circumference is 59.90cm or 23.58 inches. That’s about the size of a volleyball.

BUT WAIT! WHAT ABOUT THE FIRST THREE MOVIES? He’s 36 feet tall in the first three movies which is a SIGNIFICANT difference. Using the same method… The man is packing a length of 85.60cm or 33.70 inches and a girth of 76.09cm or 29.96 inches. That’s the size of a large dinner plate.

Go get em ladies ;)
