I think it would be nice to have the option to hide numbers on ao3. Make it where the 'kudos' and 'hits' number is author-viewable only, have an alternate option for when a list is sorted by such so people can read things based off their tags and preferences rather than see big number go brrrr

I speak as someone with popular fics, it doesn't have to be a requirement but like, an option? This could go for other websites too, tumblr notes and the like

I find the fact that the confrontation at the end of UTRH is often summarized as Jason asking Bruce to kill the Joker for him fascinating.

Because that's not what happened.

Jason holds a gun up to Joker's head, gives Bruce another, and tells him that if Bruce doesn't do something (shoot Jason), he will kill Joker.

Jason doesn't give the gun to Bruce so that he would shoot Joker. He isn't expecting Bruce to pull the trigger on the clown. He's asking Bruce to do nothing. To be inactive. Because that will still be a choice, and despite having done nothing, everybody clearly agrees that Bruce would still, at least in part, be responsible for Joker's death.

...And to me, this moment is a kind of- microcosm, of the rest of Jason's point. Because after being captured and carted off to Arkham, the villain will escape again, and will kill more people. The only way to truly prevent that from happening would be to kill them; Bruce refuses to do so, and I respect his right to choose such a thing for himself, but it is still a choice, and if we agree that Bruce's inaction during the confrontation would leave him at least partly responsible for the Joker's death, then we must also agree that his inaction in permanently preventing the Rogues from killing more people means he is also, partly, responsible for all of those deaths.

btw reminder in case anyone gets the wrong idea, just because I'm talking about writing c!wilbur does not mean I support cc!wilbur. I do not support that man in any way and I don't want anyone who supports him still to think I'm on that side. all my writing has only ever been about the character, and when I continue writing the character in the future that's all it is. the fictional character of c!wilbur from the dream smp.

yes, we shouldn't ignore the terrible events going on right now (Palestine, Sudan, etc), but I think we need some reminders because some of the posts i've been reading have been giving off *extremely* guilt-trippy vibes: Not posting about current events or bad things =/= not caring. Not reblogging =/= not caring. Adding "don't scroll past this" or "reblog this or block me" to posts is guilt-trippy as hell. And lastly, online activism is not the only form of activism.

I've been seeing a bunch of people adding disclaimers to their billford posts clarifying that they have critical thinking skills about abuse and abusive relationships, and I 100% understand that impulse. When I first made this blog I added disclaimers like that onto nearly everything. But, if it makes the folks adding those disclaimers feel any better: after I stopped writing essays trying to prevent people from taking my billford posts in bad faith, absolutely no one got mad at me in my inbox or on any of my posts, and I've been posting about billford for years now. In my experience the majority of people who are uncomfy with this ship nowadays will simply block and move on. Some folks will disagree no matter how many disclaimers you add, and that's ok

"a victim should never be shipped with the person who tortured them even if it's ""fanon"" and written as a normal relationship" I'm BEGGING people to PLEASE stop treating fictional characters like they are real people, that's so fucking embarrassing

"I don't care what people ship as long as it's not problematic" OHH MY GODD SHUT UPP

I don't got Too much to offer at the moment ,BUT !!!!! DHWJDHSFNW I wanted to elaborate further on my infodumping regarding Shamura's old town as a child as well as what their life was like before the crown of war and wisdom

Itll probably be about another minute or so :>c possibly up to 1:56 id say

In Short,,, shamura went from being a simple child attending church every week -> a new priest that helped volunteer with the church -> becoming a cardinal at the clergy ,,, Piling that all with other after school activites (regarding sports & gifted) they were frequently VERY stressed out as a child,,, it lead to them burning down the whole clergy and "crying for absolution",,, No one knew the cardinal burnt down the clergy so the town had been very paranoid,, and it was all this almost 17 yr old's fault with not knowing how to cope with it :'-]c

They were the smartest & most "prodigal" child of silk cradle at the time,,, often having people both older and younger look up to them for how they were the best example of a church kid should quote on quote Behave

With all the heavy set expectations they had really bad coping mechanisms such as not only being a perfectionist immediately at 11 years old ,but Also being too obsessed with the idea of fire and eventually it dwelling into pyromania (which mental illness that long ago was deemed as psychotic so they were very undertreated) ,,

its so silly but i just keep thinking abt being in norway and seeing for the first time kinda ever that like governments can do things to make peoples life better. for no other reason but just to improve things. like im sure norway has lots of problems i didnt see on a trip but i cannot stress how insane it was that the government had done things because it would be nice. to take care of people. ?????

As someone interested in book making and a viewer of said content the most frustrating thing is seeing someone rebind a popular book and the comments are like "my heart ripped in half when you tore out the pages why are u mutilating the book :(((((" like girl this isnt an ancient manuscript with only one of its kind in existence its mass manufactured tiktok slop even if it WAS being shredded it wouldnt matter there's so many copies out there. Very weird subset of people

What happens when you win the debate on who's the most oppressed group in the transgender community. What happens then. What could be accomplished by finding the one group that is the single most downtrodden demographic that suffers at the hands of every other community and putting them up on the 'most oppressed' throne with a 'most oppressed' trophy that could not be accomplished if we listened and paid attention to individual and group needs and worked to address them without the need to determine 'who has it worst', or worse, 'who actually belongs to the most oppressed group'.
