an interesting linguistics find! so I'm reading this text from 1908 and it keeps referencing "hp" in the context of "not being at full hp" "applying your full hp to a task" etc

and I'm like....... okay that is a perfectly normal way to describe energy and reads totally clear to me, but I KNOW you don't mean hit points/health points which is the first place my brain goes, so what are YOU using hp to mean

and it's not explained in-text, which means it was common enough to not warrant explanation to the 1908 audience, so gotta look elsewhere

horsepower. turns out it's horsepower.

and I'm absolutely FASCINATED that a commonly used initialism from 1908 now stands for something different AND YET the contextual meaning is still the same to a 21st-century reader

I could hand this guy my nintendo switch and he'd be like, ah yes I understand, this ''''pokemon'''' loses horsepower throughout the fight

language is amazing

This is a Moving Forward PSA for everyone using AO3. I am witnessing the results of a culture clash and communication failure. Not a lack of communication, but a misunderstanding caused by changes in fandom culture.

Before fic tagging was common, fics weren’t tagged. You had a pairing, if applicable, an author’s note about genre or general content, and if they were feeling charitable, a vague content warning. There are even a few genres of fic where even vaguely tagging literally spoils the plot and impact (such as horror, psyche thriller, in which the likely content is implicit to the genre). As a result, there is a basic category tag that permits this, as a courtesy to “old-fashioned” writers.

“No Archive Warnings Apply” means the fic is PG13 at worst, probably fluff, totally safe.

“Choose Not to Use Archive Warnings” is the polar opposite. It’s a glaring Enter at Your Own Risk billboard. It means: a shitload of warnings apply but I ain’t telling because this story requires shock value. It’s very important to read the author’s notes for those fics because they might be using that older format from above.

But without the context of fandom culture that generated AO3, it’s understandably easy to conflate the two categories, given their similar wording.

[mrv3000]

“No Archive Warnings Apply” means there’s no

graphic depictions of violence

major character death

underage

rape/non-con

“Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings” =  HERE BE DRAGONS. (implies that one or more of the above exists, but the author doesn’t want to give anything away by tagging)

[kaluawoo]

“Creator Chose Not To Warn” means there may or may not be anything.

There could be all 4.

There could be none.

There could be “Does it count as Major Character Death if the character is already dead at the start, then returns as a ghost, and fades by the end?” or other things where the author wasn’t sure if an Archive Warning applied or not.

“No Archive Warnings Apply” meanwhile definitely has none of the four warnings, but that doesn’t mean it’s PG13 Fluff - it could, for example, be a Porn Without Plot Orgy scene, or it could be an angsty whump story, etc. It can be anything, as long as it involves no graphic violence, non-con, underage sex, or major character death.

While I can appreciate the concept of shipping, and romantic fanfic as a genre, I enjoy nothing more than the idea of fanfiction where the whole point is just throwing two characters who would otherwise never meet into a situation together just for the hell of it, like finding two weird bugs and putting them the same jar to see what they would do. Especially ones not from just two different stories, but wildly different genres. Like what if these two motherfuckers spent 24 hours trapped in the same elevator together.

Character who acts how “horror characters are so stupid, if they made good decisions this wouldn’t happen” people want characters to act, but it’s not a horror movie and it’s abundantly clear that this person is paranoid beyond the point of being able to function

ok i know this is a joke but genuinely walk around and give them to your neighbors. even if you don't know them. "hey i made too many cookies to eat by myself, will you please take some?" top tier icebreaker 10/10. step 1 of community building is being able to have a chat with the people in your community

Someone tagged this as make smaller batches but thats not the point sometimes

I moved to a place with no other Jews and I didnt know anyone so I kept making 2 challot every friday and handing one hot from the oven fresh challah to a random neighbour every week. I made friends quickly and if im ever home late my neighbours walk my dog for me

On jewish holidays i bring in the greek treats i grew up with for my officemates, and they dont have a single clue what each holiday is but they love it and give me gifts for their holidays too

The world is nice and cozy when you have community, and human community resides in the stomach

being anti ai is making me feel like in going insane. "you asked for thoughts about your characters backstory and i put it into chat gpt for ideas". studies have proven its making people dumber. "i asked ai to generate this meal plan". its causing water shortages where its data centers are built. "ill generate some pictures for the dnd campaign". its spreading misinformation. "meta, generate an image of this guy doing something stupid". its trained off stolen images, writing, video, audio. "i was talking with my snapchat ai-" theres no way to verify what its doing with the information it collects. "youtube is impletmenting ai based age verification". my work has an entire graphics media department and has still put ai generated motivational posters up everywhere. ai playlists. ai facial verification. google ai microsoft ai meta ai snapchat ai. everyone treats it as a novelty. every treats it as a mandatory part of life. am i the only one who sees it? am i paranoid? am i going insane? jesus fucking christ. if i have to hear one more "well at least-" "but it does-" "but you can-" im about to lose it. i shouldnt have to jump through hoops to avoid the evil machine. have you no principles? no goddamn spine? am i the weird one here?
