Since I've seen several posts floating around that try to rebut the points of @end-otw-racism by saying that AO3 is too big to moderate, can we PLEASE take a moment and remember that AO3 IS ALREADY HEAVILY MODERATED.

We all know the obvious one - that if you post anything about monetizing fic, you will be moderated into oblivion. We also all know why! This is essential to AO3's survival as a non-profit! No one would propose changing this!

But a lot of people seem to forget that AO3 is moderated in other ways! For a personal example, several years ago I got a "change this or we're removing your work" e-mail. The work in question? A collection of pseudo-ficlets that were somewhere between outlines and sketchy fics. What I got moderated for? I said in the a/n that if anyone wanted to expand my kinda-outliney nonsense into fully fleshed out stories, they were welcome to do so! I was told this was a violation of the ToS, because fics that are collections of prompts aren't allowed, and that if I didn't change the a/n I'd have to delete the work. Of course I edited the a/n, and my work was allowed, and I moved on. I did, immediately, delete another work I'd posted, which WAS literally sets of prompts I'd written free to a good home. It was clearly in violation of those rules, and I just hadn't realized content like that wasn't allowed.

Numerous things are forbidden on AO3 and will get moderated and potentially deleted, including:

advertising

"find a fic" posts

spam

plagiarized works

virus spreading

doxxing

actual CSAM

lots of other stuff as listed in the tos

If the foundation of your argument is "AO3 is too big to moderate" your argument is bad. AO3 is already moderated.

So that means your ACTUAL argument is "I think AO3 is moderated enough as-is and I don't think AO3 should be moderated in a way that might better protect fans of color."

Having that attitude despite the many, many, MANY fans of colors who say "hey, we don't feel safe here, can this be better moderated to protect us?" (when, by the way, the existing harassment policy SHOULD protect them but clearly isn't being implemented in ways that actually DOES protect them!)

Well. That's sure a take.

(TO BE CLEAR: I am anti-censorship. I am pro-moderation. I am pro-AO3. I fucking love your dark fic, your underage works, your non-con stories, your kinky pwp with "no redeeming qualities," your dirty-wrong-bad ego fics. I would NEVER want a solution that removed that content. And I believe AO3 is the greatest thing to happen to fic in my lifetime and I want it to continue to be the wonderful thing it is. I think that what AO3 already is can be reconciled with the demands of fans of color that they be better protected. I believe fans of color when they say that the current policies don't protect them adequately, that they don't feel safe, that this drives them out of white western fandom. I've listened a lot, and I've seen a lot, and I've learned a lot, and I want AO3 to be better than it is in this regard. I'm honestly kinda depressed how many people seem comfortable with the status quo.)

#unforth rambles #racism #end racism in the otw #end otw racism #the specific post i saw made me so angry it's taken me the better part of a week to cool down enough to speak coherently about it #way to write a HUGE post that all starts from a very false premise #well two false premises actually #the first is that the end otw racism movement is calling for content to be deleted #which it's not literally no one is saying read billions of words of fanfic to protect fans of color #that's an absurd thing to say and everyone involved knows it's absurd so nice straw man #but even more fundamental than that HELLO THERE IS ALREADY HEAVY MODERATION #enforce the rules that are ALREADY THERE #BE MORE TRANSPARENT ABOUT WHAT YOU'RE DOING #these are not unreasonable requests #i'm really starting to think some people can't be bothered to actually read what's being asked for #and are instead seeing what they want to see there #and to be clear i also am surely reading the text with rose-colored glasses #i don't want to see yes we mean deletion yes we mean removal #i personally want a solution that's both as anti-censorship as possible and also is pro moderation and protects people #so that's the lens I read things through #but I KNOW the lens I'm reading it through and I KNOW that lens may be coloring my interpretations #have you taken a moment to take off your glasses and see how they might be coloring your own intepretations #because maybe you should

Killing all the songs titled "Never Been in Love" that are about being in love with a ROCK

#🎼“teehee holding your hand makes me feel like I've never been in love and/or heartbroken” Okay. AWFUL choice for the title girl. #🎼“Never been in love (LIKE THIS) AND/OR BEFORE” OKAY. NAME THE SONG THAT THEN??? #kindly stop being in love in the Not In Love song please I'm just trying to make playlists over here. #aspec #aromantic #I'm pretty sure I'm not aromantic but this is making me unreasonably angry. #Anyways Never Been in Love by Will Jay thank you for the actually aroace song that's not very angsty. Thank you. #Now don't get me wrong #Take a Hint and such are GREAT! but not inherently aro or ace. Just about telling people to accept no for an answer like a person should do #Regardless of anything. Which is GREAT!!! #But like. I'm looking for songs that are pretty obviously about being Aro/Ace specifically. So.

okay i guess people are coming to tumblr from reddit so i figured i'd make my own guide because the other ones piss me off

so first things first

you're going to want to change your pfp/header/blog description off of the defaults. tumblr has a pretty big bot problem so blogs with default pfp/headers are usually a block on sight for most people. you may also want to make a post saying your new from reddit and maybe reblog some things.

thats the most important thing the rest of this is pretty optional

you're going to want to go into settings under the dashboard tab and change some things.

Endless scrolling: preference thing, i prefer to have it on but you could turn it off if you wanted

Show timestamps on posts, reblogs, and notes.: you're going to want to make sure this is on, posts circulate on tumblr a lot longer than they tend to on other sites. seeing posts from 5+ years ago is a pretty common occurrence.

Shorten long posts: turn this on, you don't want to get color of the sky'd.

Use blog colors when viewing blogs: another preference thing, i personally have it on but there are many reasons you might want to turn it off.

Best Stuff First: you're going to want to turn this off if you want a chronological dashboard.

Include stuff in your orbit: most people will tell you that you must turn this off but you really don't have to, i turn it on myself from time to time. it just puts stuff the people you follow have liked on your dashboard occasionally.

Include "Based On Your Likes!": another one most people will say you need to turn off but you don't really need to. personally i leave it off because if i want to see stuff based on my likes i just go to my for you page.

Include followed tags post: you can turn this one off if you want, i'm not sure why you would follow a tag if you didn't want to see posts from it occasionally.

Enable colorized tags: a preference thing, you can turn this off if you want.

Snooze Tumblr Live: you probably should turn this on but i got tired of turning it on every week so i just ignore the tumblr live stuff. whatever you do don't use tumblr live it's run by another company and harvests your data.

next your gonna want to go to your blog settings.

Enable custom theme: i would really recommend turning this on. it lets you do a bunch of crazy stuff with your blogs theme (including just straight up editing the html) and it also gives you back your [blank].tumblr.com url instead of your just using the tumblr.com/[blank] url.

Share posts you like: makes your likes public, i would recommend turning this off.

Share the Tumblrs you're following: makes the blogs you follow public, i would recommend turning this off.

now for some feature of the site

this is the like button, you press it if you like something. you can only like a post once. some users will bitch at you if you use it, kill them.

this is the reblog button, you press it if you want something to show up on your blog. you can reblog a post as many times as you want.

you can add tags, text, images (anything you could put in a post) on a reblog but you don't have to.

this is the reply button, you press it if you want to leave a comment on a post. it's kinda strange and i don't like using it.

tags

tags are cool, you can use them to find things or organize the stuff on your blogs.

some people say the search function doesn't work which just isn't true. sure searching for the content of a post doesn't really work but searching by tag works pretty well in my experience.

to do this type the tag you want into the search bar and then click "Go To #[tag]"

you can also filter tags if you don't want to see posts with that tag, they'll still show up on your dash they'll just be blurred and you'll need to click on them to see them. it will say which tags it has that are causing it to be filtered.

people also often use tags to leave a little comment on posts or communicate back and forth or hold additional information.

community labels

i don't really see people talking about these, i don't think many people use them, but your probably going to want to set these to either "Show" or "Blur"

note: if you set a label to "Hide" posts with that label will not show up for you at all

iirc all of these are set to "Hide" by default so remember to change that setting if you want to.

one last thing: the queue

the queue is pretty neat, if you want to reblog something later, but don't have a specific time in mind, you can queue it!

you can change how many things in your queue are posted a day and what times of day they get posted on your queued post page.

and thats everything i can think of.

apologies if i forgot anything.

#reddit migration #reddit #posts for new users #bacon posts #i'm probably going to regret posting this #i'm also a pretty new user all things considered and some of the older users probably won't agree with the thing i said about... #... likes specifically #quite honestly i just get unreasonably angry whenever people start bitching about the like button #i probably wouldn't have made this post if the one user guide i saw didn't complain about likes vs reblogs bullshit

Anyways I hope I'm not just the local Alfonse and Sharena blogger to you, I hope I'm also thoroughly Just Some Guy

#I... DIDN'T MEAN TO START A WHOLE THING......... a whole ass incident............. #i was just playing touys......... and maybe wasn't clear enough when i was talking hcs vs what's close to canon #but still like. ultimately ambiguous. cause that is the whole point. to cast a wide net to reach a broad audience #maybe where i went wrong was making those memes and not elaborating enough/talking as if it's Canon canon #when like. to me personally i feel like there's Enough context in canon. for it to be weird. #still astounded that some people read sharena so young though like. to me she's always read as a young adult #and i still don't think it's unreasonable to place her in her 20s/mid 20s (esp currently) #but again that's part of the strategy behind the ambiguity. it's easy for me to see her as around my age #bc i'm a bit similar to her! just a bit! #she's better at the whole unwavering cheer thing. he man voice oh my god do i try. #i'm a bit more prone to melancholy and biting people though LMFAOOOO #but back at the memes like. i think i was still feeling angry at the whole bridal banner incident too LMFAOO #guy who is just so not normal #biggest takeaway here though is even though i like to joke about being an 'expert in my field' (askr sibling interest) #and even though i am really proud of/happy with all the info i collect about them #i'm really not an authority on anything! and i def don't want to be seen as if i am.

I am ENRAGED and AUTISTIC

Nothing makes me like more frustrated or hurt about Boruto more than Naruto being an absent dad because it makes me so angry that throughout Naruto it constantly brings up how Naruto either wishes or longs for a family and seeks a father relationship from Jiraiya. And then it gets blamed on him being the hokage and I just cannot take it that their telling me that THE GUY WHO SPENT HIS ENTIRE CHILDHOOD LONGING FOR A FAMILY/DAD IS JUST AN ABSENT DAD LIKE AAAGGHHHH. DONT DO THIS TO MY MAN, HE WOULD NEVER, FUCK YOU, NARUTO WOULD NEVER GRAAAAGHHHH.

Like this makes me so unfathomably angry that something is shown to be so important to Naruto and then they make him bad at it like who made this decision DIE DIE DIE. Honestly I would almost rather just watch Naruto be a dad than be made hokage I can't take this shit ass character destruction anymore. And I just. Why do they have to blame him being a bad absent dad on being Hokage. Like why can't he have both of his dreams, why does it have to be one or the other.

It's also really late though so maybe I'm thinking about this too much but I fucking hate this world we live in, they should've just made a slice of life anime about Naruto being a dad/hokage and watering plants :(

#naruto #boruto #I'm so unreasonably angry #just let the balding straight man water his plants #downright sobbing #was thinking about this while driving and straight up just started gripping the steering wheel till my knuckles where white #hate gods green earth

This is like 10 years too late but the "Tina hits her head and dreams everyone is swapped" episode of glee was so annoying, first because it wasn't even an episode that "plot" was like 15 minutes long, and second because why would Tina dream up a world where everything and everyone relies on Rachel and her talent and come out of it thinking that Rachel is deserving of everything she wants? The world Tina dreamed up is not how Tina sees the world. If anything, it's how Rachel sees the world. Why would Tina dream of a version of herself (or Rachel as herself) who sees herself as small and incomparable to Rachel when Tina started her "plot" angry that that was how others were seeing her?

#rachel should have had this 'plot' and realized the world doesn't revolve around her #glee #tina cohen chang #i'm saying stuff #i hate rachel #my roommate and i watched this episode yesterday and i got unreasonably angry about it #TINA DESERVES BETTER #this is a rachel barry hate blog

reminder that if you say the ableist r slur (and don't tag it) i'm blocking you

#Bean Text #Ask to tag #i just saw someone in a comment section on a poorly maintained site use it because something was mis-tagged and. hmm. #totally made me go from fun happy blushy mood to just. so so angry #that word is absolutely the only thing (besides sudden loud noises) i can consider a trigger of mine #like i've been called that so many times and seen so much hate for people who are mentally disabled using that word that it makes me just- #-want to hurl myself off a cliff and drag the person who said it down with me everytime i hear it #is it unreasonable? maybe #do i have the right to tell people not to use that word? probably not #do i absolutely hate it with every fiber of my being? absolutely #not about any of the people i'm following btw you guys are cool #its just. augh

My mom's reading an article about food that claims Poutine is a "strictly American" dish and that we, apparently, call it "Disco Fries" in Canada and I desperately wanna know where they got this information.

A 2 second google search will tell you it was invented in Rural Quebec and "Poutine" is literally a French word. Like where tf did this person get their information!??!!

#I'm like unreasonably angry about this btw #like where the fuck did they get this information? #'cause it's like blatantly wrong

TikTok isn't the fuckigngg PROBLEM it's the fucking fact that 12-16 yr olds or whatever have been taught they have to worry about every problem ever so now they're worrying about every. tiny. itty bitty thing. because they've been shown that they'll be seen as a piece of shit otherwise.

#everytime i see someone complain about tiktok or compare it to old tumblr i loose braincells by proximity #yes i am being unreasonably angry but uh i have anger issues and i'm a minor so uhhhhh yeah /j #no art just talk #charlye angry posts #we're gonna need that tag trust me

Oh, yes, I just love your unannounced sleepover where you both come back from the bar after carefully avoiding telling me that's where you were going, and also neglecting to tell me when you'd be home! I definitely do not want to knock you on your ass and take a bat to your dome! That would be rude and unnecessary :)

Oh yes, please do start talking about shit amongst yourselves and make me feel isolated and othered in ny own room! These moments are what I live for, of course. Naturally. Who would ever have any issues with this arrangement at all?

Dear lady i angered in the line at the grocery store:

Me asking for a little space had nothing to do with your disability (was entirely unaware you had one until you brought it up) and everything to do with the fact that you were standing so close to me i could feel your breath on the back of my neck.

#i miss social distancing #as someone with a strong need for personal space #it was the only time i could do anything about it without risking someone getting unreasonably angry with me #i both apologized and said please in asking her for some space #and this was only after i'd tried subtly moving forward three four times #only for her to close the distance the instant i moved #also why would you want to stand that close to an absolute stranger? #i feel bad but at the same time she was inches from my face when i turned around and i shouldn't feel bad asking for what i need #especially when it's something as small as a little space in line at a very busy grocery store #this is why i usually go in the evenings or on the weekends #but i ran out of vegetables and had no other choice but to buy some #also what did her disability have anything to do with her standing so close to me? #no clue what it was either #not that i need to know #if i was more of a dick i could have easily brought up my own anxiety and sensitivity to things like sounds and physical sensations #i'm sure she's had her own bad experiences #but if a stranger makes a completely reasonable request you shouldn't always assume it's a personal slight #how awful must your life be if that's the way you think? #it would be exhausting #i literally couldn't care less as to who you are #i will likely never see you again #i do care that i can smell the cigarette smoke on your breath #and that you were close enough that i bumped you with my elbow when i reached for my wallet in my pocket #also i don't think the guy in front of me appreciated me shifting closer to him each time i tried getting away from her #i'm sure there were other people in line who judged me #but my god was it getting uncomfortable

I got to scream about a little something 

But today one of my friends asked me for an entire playlist because she really liked listening to it while we worked. And she also said that she things I got really good taste in music. 

It just made me so happy, I shared two playlists, the one she asked for and another that’s a lot more experimental/strange, to see if she might like it too. She was really happy too. 

#self #text #writing #I'm actually super shy about sharing my music irl #even though I listen to a lot of it #because in my family i'm known at the one with the bad music taste #supposedly because I can't hear very well #had my parents get angry at me for playing certain songs #i know it's unreasonable to think that everyone is like them #but that genuinely made me just happy
