Girl what? I’ve looked at the magnesium product on the US, EU, and UK versions of the JS Health website. The EU doesn’t even HAVE warnings, and both the US and the UK versions say to consult a doctor. And as for the alternative medicine, people turn to it all the time. Everyone has the right to decide for themselves how they’ll live their life. She is just posting about what works for her, which is no different than you recommending a restaurant to someone. Maybe they’ll love it, maybe it’s not for them, but in the end it is their choice whether to go back to the restaurant. The world would be a better place if everyone minded their own damn business.

'ao3 needs a like and dislike button'

what you need, my algorithm-rotten minded friend, is a grip

[asexualbert]

Oh, they DO have those!

The like button should be at the bottom, looks like this:

The dislike button differs depending on your device but it should look something like one of these:

Hope that helps :)

What AO3 really needs is an and/or feature for tags. Like, sometimes I have a general idea of what I want to read, but I’m not picky. It’d be great to say “hey! I really like these tags, but if a fic doesn’t have all of them that’s fine!”

I’m so tired of people never making a character face consequences when they’re the main source of conflict in a fic.

I just finished reading one where a guy left his partner without a word. He literally moved out and never called or texted them. He’s the one who allowed his job to taint his relationship with them. He went and kissed his best friend a week after breaking up with his partner, straining several relationships in the process because, surprise, turns out the friend has feelings for him that he does not reciprocate. He also never really addressed that development, but somehow we got an epilogue where they were cool again?

He actually never addresses any of the problems he creates in the fic.

The conversations he and his partner did have went in circles and never quite resolved. Basically a whole lot of nothing (20,000 words???) was said before the partner, once again not the guy, randomly decided it was best for everyone to just move on?

Neither of them ever truly explained themselves or their feelings to each other, and his partner ended up doing more work to repair the relationship than he did, even though he was the main source of their problems.

Idk. I just think that if you’re going to create conflict, and your aim is a happy ending, HAVE YOUR CHARACTERS ACTUALLY WORK THROUGH THE CONFLICT.
