Hello! Here is a list of fanfics that I have co-written with @cinnamononions and approved by @neatsaviors !
These fics are based in a Reverse AU of Rockman.EXE where Netto Hikari was the one who becomes the navi Netman.EXE while Saito Hikari lives on as a human. We’ve worked on this AU for about 4 years now and I decided to make a little list of the episodes that have been written so far.
Basically, the plotline runs from the anime but has influences of bits and pieces from the game and manga canons of the series, so think of it as an “anime” reboot too! It’ll also be more condensed than the large number of episode that exist for the ani...
The Episodes!
Episode 1: Plug-In! Netman!
Lonely 13yo Saito Hikari has it all: High grades, type 1 diabetes, an obnoxious bully, busy parents and an interest in programming as a career path.But with the arrival of his brand-new NetNavi from his absent father, his whole world goes topsy-turvy as a new chapter in his life thrusts him into an era of humanity plagued with viruses, corruption and cyber-terrorists.
Episode 2: A Spontaneous WTF Subway Ride!
Infuriated by his defeat at the hands of Netman and Saito, Dekao sets out to repair Gutsman... Meanwhile, electronic devices have been going rampant throughout Densan City, and Saito is yet again thrust into another wild adventure against an electrifying opponent of the villainous organisation WWW, who takes joy in spontaneous guessing games with life-or-death consequences.
Episode 3: Vehicular Panic!
Vehicular panic spreads through Densan City as traffic lights misbehave thanks to involvement of another WWW Operative. Meanwhile, Saito pays a visit to his favourite former teacher, oblivious to a kidnapping plot of an heiress of a gaming company and the searching eyes of a powerful NetOp looking for him...
Episode 4: Ice-Cold Trap
Glad to have his mind taken off recently chaotic events, Saito is invited with his strange friends to Densan city's newest Aquarium thanks to Yaito's influence and money. But when Saito and Netman notice something is up with the systems of the Aquarium, it leads them to the city waterworks where a trap awaits them...
Episode 5: Live, Laugh, Furries
Saito takes the plunge and visits his almost-friend Dekao's house with snacks and ingredients for a lunch, preparing to watch a weird new yoga program that has taken the country by storm. Until they are abruptly interrupted by citizens acting like literal animals...
Episode 6: Attack Of The Battlechip Otaku
Time has passed since the last WWW incident, and a depressed Saito Hikari finally found the motivation to head back to school where the latest WWW plot - and a mystery teaching sub - awaits...
Episode 7: Teamwork Ignited!
With the N1 closing in fast, Saito bands together with his friends to practice seamless netbattling on Yaito's brand-new unreleased laptop produced by Gabcom. But out seeking for revenge, Count Elec and Hinoken decides to team up to 1) Steal the software and 2) Destroy Netman once and for all.
Episode 8: Dawn Of The N1 Grand Prix
As the N1 draws closer, Saito is excited to prepare for the tournament. He meets friends old and new to embark on this new journey as the nervousness is finally setting it. Meanwhile, Enzan seems to be dealing with his own issues on top of his anti-WWW taskforce mission...
Episode 9: Picking The Bones Clean
The N1 Grand Prix preliminaries go on, and now it's Saitos turn! His anxiety and nervousness heighten with anticipation as he prepares for his fight against a frightening duo: the fortune teller Miyuki and her NetNavi Skullman. Following the match, there's a lot of emotions...
Episode 10: Sugar Sweet Revenge!
The preliminaries grind on, and Saito's life isn't getting less chaotic. He wakes up to horrific news on a hack at IPC, and ends up having a severe medical emergency in front of the boy who seemingly hates him and his navi. And he still needs to make it to see Rolls match as well - for her match is against WWW's clowns Madoi and Colorman!
Episode 11: Blazing Hot Spirits
The prelims are over, and Saito's first round match has arrived - it's against no other than the WWW arsonists Hinoken and Fireman! After a threatening encounter before, Saito and Netman are more determined than ever to defeat each and every WWW member they come across... even if things get a bit too fiery to handle...
Episode 12: A New Spark
After witnessing Enzan's fierce NetBattle, Saito and Netman learn of a destructive technique - the Program Advance. Eyes glittering, he sees a pathway to victory in the technique. Only issue is, he just needs to learn it! Thankfully he's got some unexpected help...
Episode 13: A Dateful Encounter
Saito and Netman have survived the first rounds of the N1 Grand Prix, and are now practicing to perfect the Program Advance. But suddenly, Yaito drags him and his friends to celebrate their victories - at the prestigious 5-star restaurant Do-Re-Mi! However, in an encounter beneath the crystal chandeliers, Saito has suddenly been whisked away into the night... by his tournament rival Enzan Ijuuin for an unexpected meal and an enlightening heart-to-heart.

I think the thing that annoys me most about AI on a personal, day to day, level is what it has done to grammar checkers. If you've never done a lot of editing, or used to 5+ years ago but haven't really in the last couple years, I can't even begin to describe how fucking BAD this shit has gotten. And as an author it is EXHAUSTING.
I just want to catch spelling errors and accidental double spaces and repeated phrases and whenever I use the wrong too/to or affect/effect and shit. But no. They've shoved AI up the ass of every grammar checking software out there and now they all fucking suck and make the most random, obnoxious, nonsensical suggestions.
And yeah, I can ignore all the times it's trying to get me to cut out any semblance of my own voice, or shove things into the wrong tense, or make the most random suggestions on comma usage. But if it's getting all that WRONG, what is it just straight up missing that I SHOULD be correcting? What real spelling and grammar errors are still lurking in there?
I get why people keep saying this (and other versions of it like "Use Adobe alternatives" and "Use Google product alternatives."). But here's the problem: I do not create in isolation. Even my own 100% personal projects are getting sent to other people whether it's editors or printers or beta readers and unless every single person in that train is using the same products, things can get wonky.
Libre Office and Word handle formatting differently on the back end, which can completely break documents if you move them back and forth between the two. So if I write in Libre Office but my beta readers are still using Word, when I send them a manuscript for review there's a good chance things won't look right and my beta reader will not actually be reviewing what I sent them.
Industry standards are industry standards FOR A REASON. Having everyone on the same workflow can be crucial to getting things done effectively and correctly without creating a lot of extra work. And those things are not going to change overnight, as much as we might want them to.
Yeah, Word, let me just leave this whole chunk of dialogue without the closing quotation marks. That's the thing to do. How dare I have two punctuation marks in a row. It's not like that's how closing quotation marks fucking work.
And you know, for young writers, this has got to be so detrimental just from the perspective of opening your document and seeing a million corrections that, frankly, don't need to be there. If you're a young writer you're likely not going to have the background knowledge to know what is and isn't a good suggestion, you're just going to see a document that makes it look like you made every mistake possible so clearly you must be a terrible, stupid writer and should just give up.

Everyone say thank you to trans femmes for showing us a version of femininity born from joy and desire instead of just through coercion

Everyone say thank you to all people outside of the cis gender binary for showing us a version of gender born from joy and desire instead of just through a simple frame work in which our oppressor have used to kill, erase, and censor us.
Thank you for showing us the existence of a history before and a future ahead.
1. The court holds Google responsible for statements made by its AI, considering them Google's statements (search engines have limited liability for results in their engine as they're the words of other sites/companies/people), meaning when their AI lies/hallucinates they're liable for the defamation/harm resulting from those statements.
2. Google's defense that customers are generally aware of the lack of reliability and are responsible for fact checking was dismissed. As the court pointed out, that would "significantly diminish" AI Search's stated purpose and it can't be distinguished from Google's business practices/statements as a search tool.
3. Studies have found about 91% of Google's everyday AI responses are accurate, leaving millions of searches per HOUR with potential liability for falsehoods. 56% of correct responses weren't supported by the sources the AI listed. Both of which mean Google is now liable for a LOT more AI "errors."
4. Google was held liable for 80% of court costs in this case and this precedent is expected to reverberate around the world. This is a massive shift from the 3rd-party search provider role Google has previously played and it comes right as they've tied ALL searches to their AI search.
5. If the words are Google's, this solidifies the position of universities who demand that all answers from AI are fully cited. If all the in-line citations now have to be (Google, 2026), that's going to make it obvious when someone's trying to use Google as a source. There's still the difficulty with people who are academically dishonest by trying to pass off the AI writing as their own.
6. 91% accuracy is officially too low to use as a source of references, which means the AI can't be used as a source of references either. This makes it less legitimate for such purposes than Wikipedia of all places (Wikipedia might need date/time proof of when it was accessed for the reference to be valid, but at least it is possible to prove the link existed at a particular date and time).
7. This will help encourage the rollout of courses on how to avoid AI search for students who need academic accuracy, because it's statistically not good enough to use.
8. This strengthens the case intellectual property authors have against Google in the EU, as this is proof that an intellectual property transfer took place.

⚠️🚨PHISHING SCAM ALERT🚨⚠️
If you get tagged in a post from ''Tumblr Security" or any similar title/name; it's a SCAM! Tumblr will never tag you, they will resolve any problem privately to you via mail if something is happening with you account.
DO NOT CLICK THEIR LINK.
In the post they will ask you to ''resolve the problem'' by clicking a link that seems genuine, but it's obviously not. From the comments of other user and my own research, they will try to phish out personal information and to your bank account. NEVER PROVIDE PERSONNAL INFORMATION THAT LINKS TO YOU GOUVERNEMENT SOCIAL NUMBER OR BANK!
Hopefully Tumblr fixes this issue, which I doubt since it has been a problem since last month, and I've been tagged multiple times by other account. So stay safe from phishing scammers.
Racist reactionaries always have the tiniest dicks because they only feel brave to destroy stuff when there are other similar gammon-faced shitheads around
Today is the biggest day for Ellipsus since we launched in 2023... 👀
Back then, we began building Ellipsus out of a simple belief: writers deserve a place to create, collaborate, and share their work without handing over their words, their data, or their creative process to bad actors and Big Tech—a promise that matters now, more than ever.
Nearly 600k writers and counting are writing on Ellipsus because of this promise. We see everyday how writers are rejecting Big Tech's data mining model in favor of tools that respect user privacy and reflect our values.
We’re a small full-time team building, maintaining, supporting, and improving the tool every day. And to keep doing that sustainably—without compromising the promises that brought people here—we’re introducing Ellipsus Plus.
Plus is a set of optional features on top of free Ellipsus, designed to help fund the continued development of Ellipsus for everyone, free and paid; while helping us stay independent, ad-free, and working to improve the tool well into the future.
That means the Ellipsus you know is staying free: you can keep writing with unlimited documents, drafts, collaborators, and core features. Free Ellipsus will continue to receive updates, improvements, and new features too, including major work already planned (like offline syncing and native apps).
Plus features have been designed alongside community feedback, our pricing shaped by our users around what felt fair and sustainable.
Every Plus subscription leads to ultimate ownership of the tool. Not metaphorical ownership, but real ownership, including all future updates to the Plus plan. No endless subscriptions. Once you’ve paid, it’s yours. Really.
Our introductory Plus features are designed to be fun, creative, practical, and help you get the most out of the tool! We really hope you enjoy them.
Here’s a quick overview:
Custom themes
Make your writing space feel like home with custom themes! Use any colors, gradients, images, or .gifs you love. Share with friends and readers. The choices are infinite.
Writing Insights
See insights into your writing process and spot patterns faster across ten AI-free metrics—like vocabulary diversity, sentence length, sentence rhythm, word frequency, and more. Writing insights are opt-in only, and run on local data, so your text never leaves the editor.
Customizable Snippets
We all love snippets! Now you can give your words an extra personal touch. Customize your snippets with media backgrounds (GIFs, images), fonts, text colors, and custom themes—you can even add byline credits for authors and characters!
Emboss
Emboss is our AI-free proof-of-work layer for human writing. Show your readers the time, labor, and love that went into your work. Instead of relying on unreliable “AI-powered” “verifiers” that judge a piece after the fact, share your writing journey, with authorship metrics that help inspire trust. You can also show how your work evolved with snapshots of your version history. Emboss is fully opt-in.
We hope you’re as excited about Plus as we are! Try Plus free for 7 days, no payment required. You can read more (and sign up!) on our Plus page.
Again, there’s tons more to come, and we can’t wait to build it for you. Free or paid, Ellipsus is going to keep getting better. Thank you for your support.

Now please, go forth and explore!
