I'm seeing a lot of "ugh, so we can't even criticize fic authors anymore?" posts popping up on here and the ao3 subreddit and I just want to say, for the record: No one's saying you can't criticize (fanfic) authors publicly. They're saying it's rude and antithetical to positive fandom experience. And, yes there's a difference.

If this website was a conference and I had just spent a whole afternoon listening to a presentation on [unpopular fic trope] and after that was done, I got up on stage and very publicly told the audience that [unpopular fic trope] was illogical and anyone who writes it is woefully misinformed and should be banned from writing [relevant character], that would in fact be a dick move.

"But the canon character would never--" it doesn't matter. You're shouting down the hall at the person who just happily did a whole seminar on their OOC version of that character. "But I don't like that the author chose to make them--" good, you're well-acquainted with your likes and dislikes, time to find another fic.

We all run into fics and interpretations we don't like. But there's a huge difference between loudly talking about it on Tumblr where the author can see it, and just venting in a private discord or other group. Also, gentle reminder that this is a hobby for most writers and something they do purely because they enjoy it. Stop being massive dicks just because you feel entitled to a certain flavor of fanfiction you will probably be chasing until the Reformation of Krypton.

In case anybody needs it, in order for your game to load faster, you should remove any special characters from the packages in your mods folder.

This includes characters such as parentheses, brackets ([ ]), exclamation marks (!), spaces ( ), number signs (#), 𝓪𝓷𝓭 𝓼𝓹𝓮𝓬𝓲𝓪𝓵 𝓯𝓸𝓷𝓽𝓼 𝓵𝓲𝓴𝓮 𝓽𝓱𝓲𝓼 𝒐𝒓 𝒍𝒊𝒌𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒔.

These will make your game slower!

To prove a point, I have made the difficult (but therapeutic decision) to rename ALL of the CC I download and sort them properly into folders and I load into my game in like a minute with 6gb of mods. Obviously, this isn't as much as some other people have, but I do believe it does help my game run a bit faster and smoother.

If you think the task of renaming every single package is too daunting, you should also really look into downloading the Bulk Rename Utility program. It will help you tremendously.

I love libraries.

I'm browsing the WWI shelves (as you do) and notice a very old book about the war. I glance at the first pages that talk about how one day the war will be over and we'll look at this place and not see any signs of the battlefield.

Then it hits me. And I check the publishing date.

This book was printed before the war's end. Not written. Printed. The physical object was created in 1918, while the war in question was raging and the end was as yet uncertain.

Now I'm standing on the other side of the apocalypse, with this physical link to that era in my hands. I'm living proof that the war did end and life did go on and we can all look at the end of the world as a long-ago memory.

Reading old books is cool enough, connecting our minds and hearts through the ideas of people who lived long ago, but there's something extra profound about holding a copy of the book that comes from the time that it was written. It's a physical link between the past and the present connecting me to those long-ago people. A piece of the past come into the future that gives me the chance to almost take the hand of some long-ago reader, to hold something they could have held, connecting not just mentally but physically to their era, a moment of connection across more than a century.

Excuse me while I go weep.
