Are you frustrated you can't leave second kudos on AO3? or third kudos? or whatever-who's-counting kudos?

Well, have I got the html for you!

Plop any of these in a comment (by copy&pasting the code) to make an author's day and show your appreciation!

Second kudos: <img src="https://i.ibb.co/tHMjbb6/second-kudos.png" alt="second kudos">

yet another kudos: <img src="https://i.ibb.co/wKtcj0s/yet-another-kudos.png" alt="yet another kudos">

It will look something like this (and will be transparent with white outline on dark backgrounds):

Feel free to spread and use these as much as you like! (and if you have ideas for other variations, let me know ✌️)

UPDATE since the original image links to Third kudos, nth kudos, and yet another kudos are sorta broken, here are some new ones:

Third kudos: <img src="https://i.postimg.cc/QCfTXm9d/third-kudos.png" alt="third kudos">

nth kudos: <img src="https://i.postimg.cc/1RvnVWX9/nth-kudos.png" alt="nth kudos">

yet another kudos: <img src="https://i.postimg.cc/T2s2XBhW/yet-another-kudos.png" alt="yet another kudos">

and remember you're more than welcome to save these images and upload them wherever/to your image host of choice! 💖

TIP: if the codes don't work, make sure the quotation marks are straight:

simply deleting and re-typing them in the ao3 comment box should fix this!

hi, a lot of you need a perspective reset

the average human lifespan globally is 70+ years

taking the threshold of adulthood as 18, you are likely to spend at least 52 years as a fully grown adult

at the age of 30 you have lived less than one quarter of your adult life (12/52 years)

'middle age' is typically considered to be between 45-65

it is extremely common to switch careers, start new relationships, emigrate, go to college for the first or second time, or make other life-changing decisions in middle age

it's wild that I even have to spell it out, but older adults (60+) still have social lives and hobbies and interests.

you can still date when you get old. you can still fuck. you can still learn new skills, be fashionable, be competitive. you can still gossip, you can still travel, you can still read. you can still transition. you can still come out.

young doesn't mean peaked. you're inexperienced in your 20s! you're still learning and practicing! you're developing social skills and muscle memory that will last decades!

there are a million things to do in the world, and they don't vanish overnight because an imaginary number gets too big

[roach-works]

it is an incredibly joyous thing to look around at your friends as you're heading into your 40s and everyone is so much more themselves than they were when you were all scared and fragile 20-somethings. we're different genders now, we've gotten out of bad relationships and into good ones, we worked shit jobs and got better ones, we all cook a lot better and we eat better too, we casually pull off the kind of art we could only dream of as kids, we've figured out who we are and we do it on purpose now. the self-harm scars have all faded away and we complain about our bad backs and picky digestions instead.

we still lose at trivia real bad.

[sam-keeper]

really compelling article about the number of "obvious ai tells" that are also… how a lot of people educated in english writing in colonized nations are taught to write. i.e. highly formal english rhetoric.

I'm Kenyan. I Don't Write Like ChatGPT. ChatGPT Writes Like Me.

I'm calm. I'm calm. I promise.

[loveridden1999]

which ao3 tag are you?

[shamansantics]

I got fix it and, ngl, that honestly surprisingly tracks a LOT with me... O.O Is this quiz witchcraft?

[hpseeker99]

Neville: Which one of you was going to tell me that tea tastes different if you put it in hot water? Ron: Y-You were putting it in cold water? Ginny: Neville. Answer the question Neville. Neville: Yeah? I thought for like 5 years that people just put it in hot water to speed up the tea-ification process, didn’t realize there was an actual reason. You think I have the patience to boil water? Ginny: You don't have the patience to microwave water for 3 minutes? Ron: Why are you, putting it in the microwave to boil it?! Ginny: Do you think I have the patience to boil water on the stove? Ron: It 👏🏻 TAKES👏🏻 LESS THAN A 👏🏻 MINUTE Ginny: Bestie is your stovetop powered by the fucking sun?? Ron: How long does it take you to boil a cup of water on the stove? Ginny: Like seven minutes Ron: Just stick the mug on top of the stove on medium heat and it boils in like two minutes… less than that is you use a saucepan… Ginny: [crying] You’re putting the whole mug on the stove?? On medium heat?? Your stove is enchanted Hermione: Every single person here is a fucking lunatic. Harry: Do none of you own a fucking kettle?

[supertaliart]

I promised something silly after my sad LiuShen. Does this count?

Now with a follow-up

[thealogie]

Ok quick question what’s the last book you read that couldn’t put down? Like not even what was your last fave book but what’s the last book you absolutely had to stay up finishing even though it meant you were dead tired the next day? In the replies or tags, whichever, I just haven’t hit on that feeling in like a year and want to know everyone’s

[adventures-in-a-world-of-fiction]

The Golden Enclaves by Naomi Novik. Highly recommend - really interesting fantasy world with some great characters including a hedgehog of a main character (she's so prickly and I love her). That's the third in the trilogy so start with A Deadly Education but all three books are fantastic.

[demilypyro]

vampires are so full of shit. "oh the human race is beneath us, you're just livestock to us" I don't think you know what livestock is. do you feed us? care for us? protect us from predators? no. you just slink around dark alleys and ambush people. that's not what a higher being does. that's a bottom feeder. a parasite. karate punches your head off

[tinyyellowflowers-blog]

A thing about parenting is that there are a lot of behaviors that you want to encourage your future adult to have that are SO HARD TO HANDLE in children.

[tinyyellowflowers-blog]

He HAS whatever body autonomy I can grant but I really need to marshal some arguments about not letting other children cut his hair while he’s IN class.

[tinyyellowflowers-blog]

OK ok OK ok ONE like we can do whatever we want with our bodies as long as it’s safe but there’s a time and place like for example we only do flips on grass, in houses, or on gym mats. Being naked is also a behavior for specific circumstances like inside a house or swimming in the woods! Hair cutting is like flips or taking off all your clothes!

Two it creates a mess and is really itchy, so we have to plan to do it somewhere where we can clean it up easily and take a bath afterwards and Not! In! Your! Kindergarten! Art! Class!

Three other kids might see how much fun you’re having getting your hair cut and also cut their hair and then be sad about how their hair looks. I know YOU don’t mind (and apparently Malachi is some kind of genius kindergartner barber??) but they might mind how they look, you have to set an example.

Four the teachers get to set the rules for the classroom and if you break those rules then you don’t fill out your sticker chart. I’m pretty sure hair cutting — even consensual hair cutting — breaks a rule. You can check. Ask a hypothetical question. Don’t tell them you’ve been doing this for weeks, they might get upset.

[tinyyellowflowers-blog]

It is. So funny. Especially because it’s like, perfect layering and wispy bangs??

never stop doubling down

[eightyonekilograms]

Science-fiction writers totally missed that a fully-networked world would cause our political and economic elites to acquire a desperate, burning insecure need to be good Poasters, and that this would drive them— and by extension, society— to disintegrating sanity.

[tk-duveraun]

It's really important that there's zero ambiguity: it didn't fucking work

[piosplayhouse]

Why scum villain is problematic: explained

[byjove]

So many misogynists are just openly angry women are not financially dependent on them anymore. Just irate women do not need them to pay the bills. That contributes to arguments against abortion, against DEI hiring practices, even against higher education as a whole. They want women to have no opportunities and standards so low they can exploit them. And the craziest part is that these ‘I want to feel like the man of the house and make ALL the bread, I want a trad wife’ types will still ask to go 50/50 and accuse women of being gold-diggers. You want women to want you for your money and need your money then you’re angry when they want and need you for your money.

Our triggers become the buttons by which we are manipulated.

Trauma healing frees us not by protecting the buttons but by dismantling the wiring.
