TAYLOR SWIFT | "Opalite" The Life of a Showgirl

[killlerfang1]

Bad Bunny yelling “God bless America” and then having the flags from ALL countries in the Americas wave behind him was fucking iconic. 10/10 no notes

imagine hating a non-profit site created by fans, for fans, with excellent tagging system, no censorship, no ads, no algorithm, no capitalism bullshit — just fans creating and sharing their art with other fans for free, out of pure love and passion — couldn't be me

[somnousbutler]

I hate it now because it allows generative ai writing. Like, excuse me? You did not write the story. You asked a program to do it for you. That's not work from a fan. It's just pure laziness, and it says enough.

Don't try to change my mind. Instead, get a poll going to tell AO3 to refuse gen ai for good. Fuck ai. Ban ai. Get fucked with your ai love shit.

[gunnersdaughter]

AO3 has to allow AI generated fics because 1.) no censorship means nothing is censored 2.) it’s literally impossible to know FOR SURE which works are AI generated and which ones aren’t.

AO3’s banning AI generated works would mean their volunteers would have to read each of those reported fics and determine based on vibes if they were AI or not.

Do you think AO3 has enough resources and volunteers to do that? Do you genuinely believe genuine writers won’t get falsely reported and have their hard works wrongly marked as AI and taken down?

Whether or not you like it, it’s getting more and more difficult to tell which fics are AI because AI are getting “better”. There’s always a chance of a human made work “looking like AI”, because AI was trained on human made works.

No censorship doesn't mean "except the one we hate" it means NO. CENSORSHIP.

No exceptions. Not one. Not even that horrible disgusting one every decent person in existence hates. Not even that one that intentionally romanticises abuse or rape or similar things. Not even that AI generated one.

I overheard a woman at my job say "Your whole personality revolves around what you hate instead of what you love and thats an awful way to live." to the resident vocal Maga in the breakroom.

He was stunned into silence for at least 60 seconds so that was nice.

the amount of vitriolic replies to this post makes me want to analyze why people react so angrily to having an unhealthy behavior being pointed out to them.

ANDOR | 2.09: WELCOME TO THE REBELLION

[serotoninsuggestion]

an author i love just tweeted about how “big joy and small joy are the same” and how she was just as content the other night eating chocolate and cuddling her dog as she was on her Big Trip to new york and honestly. i think that’s it. this morning i was listening to an audiobook while baking shortbread in my joggers and i realised i really didn’t care what Big Things happened in my future as long as i could keep baking and reading at the weekend and maybe that is the kind of bar we have to set to guard ourselves against disappointment. just appreciate and cherish the mundane stuff and see everything else as a bonus.

[noodle-the-queen]

Ao3 does not need an algorithm, you're just lazy

Ao3 does not need a 1-5 star rating system, you just want to bring down authors writing for FREE

Ao3 does not need automatic censorship, it is an archive, therefore anything can be posted

Writing or reading about something illegal does not mean the author nor the reader condones it, if that were true, you could never read a story involving anything negative

Purity culture is ruining fan culture and you all are fucking annoying
