i dont think fandom people who only think about male characters and only create content for male characters are like horrible misogynists but i do think they often have some shit they need to unpack. like how can you , for example, play life is strange and the only thing you come away with from that is you want nathan and warren to fuck nasty. how can you watch birds of prey, and the only thing you come away with from that is you want roman and victor to fuck nasty……… like idk! idk! i just find it strange especially when people will engage with media Specifically about women and then put no effort in to empathize or care about them, sometimes even going far enough to say they HATE the female characters and that theyre bitches… IDK!!!!
I’ve seen a number of people worried and concerned about this language on Ao3s current “agree to these terms of service” page. The short version is:
Don’t worry. This isn’t anything bad. Checking that box just means you forgive them for being US American.
Long version: This text makes perfect sense if you’re familiar with the issues around GDPR and in particular the uncertainty about Privacy Shield and SCCs after Schrems II. But I suspect most people aren’t, so let’s get into it, with the caveat that this is a Eurocentric (and in particular EU centric) view of this.
The basic outline is that Europeans in the EU have a right to privacy under the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), an EU directive (let’s simplify things and call it an EU law) that regulates how various entities, including companies and the government, may acquire, store and process data about you.
The list of what counts as data about you is enormous. It includes things like your name and birthday, but also your email address, your computers IP address, user names, whatever. If an advertiser could want it, it’s on the list.
The general rule is that they can’t, unless you give explicit permission, or it’s for one of a number of enumerated reasons (not all of which are as clear as would be desirable, but that’s another topic). You have a right to request a copy of the data, you have a right to force them to delete their data and so on. It’s not quite on the level of constitutional rights, but it is a pretty big deal.
In contrast, the US, home of most of the world’s internet companies, has no such right at a federal level. If someone has your data, it is fundamentally theirs. American police, FBI, CIA and so on also have far more rights to request your data than the ones in Europe.
So how can an American website provide services to persons in the EU? Well… Honestly, there’s an argument to be made that they can’t.
US websites can promise in their terms and conditions that they will keep your data as safe as a European site would. In fact, they have to, unless they start specifically excluding Europeans. The EU even provides Standard Contract Clauses (SCCs) that they can use for this.
However, e.g. Facebook’s T&Cs can’t bind the US government. Facebook can’t promise that it’ll keep your data as secure as it is in the EU even if they wanted to (which they absolutely don’t), because the US government can get to it easily, and EU citizens can’t even sue the US government over it.
Despite the importance that US companies have in Europe, this is not a theoretical concern at all. There have been two successive international agreements between the US and the EU about this, and both were struck down by the EU court as being in violation of EU law, in the Schrems I and Schrems II decisions (named after Max Schrems, an Austrian privacy activist who sued in both cases).
A third international agreement is currently being prepared, and in the meantime the previous agreement (known as “Privacy Shield”) remains tentatively in place. The problem is that the US government does not want to offer EU citizens equivalent protection as they have under EU law; they don’t even want to offer US citizens these protections. They just love spying on foreigners too much. The previous agreements tried to hide that under flowery language, but couldn’t actually solve it. It’s unclear and in my opinion unlikely that they’ll manage to get a version that survives judicial review this time. Max Schrems is waiting.
So what is a site like Ao3 to do? They’re arguably not part of the problem, Max Schrems keeps suing Meta, not the OTW, but they are subject to the rules because they process stuff like your email address.
Their solution is this checkbox. You agree that they can process your data even though they’re in the US, and they can’t guarantee you that the US government won’t spy on you in ways that would be illegal for the government of e.g. Belgium. Is that legal under EU law? …probably as legal as fan fiction in general, I suppose, which is to say let’s hope nobody sues to try and find out.
But what’s important is that nothing changed, just the language. Ao3 has always stored your user name and email address on servers in the US, subject to whatever the FBI, CIA, NSA and FRA may want to do it. They’re just making it more clear now.
Fun fact! You don’t currently have to worry that a US spy agency has taken your data from AO3. (Have they spied on you in other ways? Eh, probably.)
AO3’s parent nonprofit, the Organization for Transformative Works has a neat thing on their website called a warrant canary.
This thing. It’s hard to read on my screenshot, so I’ll copy the text here.
“The Organization for Transformative Works has not received any National Security Letters or FISA court orders, and we have not been subject to any gag order by a FISA court.”
What’s that mean? National Security Letters and FISA courts are how US security agencies secretly subpoena data from US-based websites. They send the website owners and order to turn over data and NOT TELL ANYONE that they’ve done so. That’s called a gag order. Disobeying this gag order is big time illegal and the US government WILL ruin your life over it. You cannot tell people, “The US government gave me a secret order to turn over my data.”
BUT! The government cannot compel you to lie. A FISA court order cannot make you say on your website, “We have never received a FISA court order.” So websites put the warrant canaries on their sites, and if they ever get an order for data that they aren’t allowed to tell you about, they take the order down. Like a canary fainting from gas in a mine, the warrant canary stops singing.
So right now, we know that the OTW, and therefore AO3, has never had to secretly turn over data to the US government. Keep an eye on that canary. Check in on it occasionally. As long as the little bird’s singing, don’t panic.
Some people have “fuck you” money. You know, that amount you have in the bank where you can look at someone, say “fuck you, I quit” or “fuck you, I’m leaving” or anything like that.
This has now taught me that some people have “fuck you” time. and I could not be any happier with this knowledge.
The secret to developing Fuck You Time is developing Fuck You Skills. In the above example, the gentleman had the Fuck You Skills of
1. Being able to track down the superintendent’s doctoral thesis 2. How to check it for plagiarism 3. How to notify the relevant people of this fraud without sounding like a crank.
Since he has these skills, it does not take him MUCH time to preform the Fuck You. Hence, his Fuck You time might be only a few hours a week, but because he’s so effecient at the Fuck You, that’s all he needs.
Learn a new skill and how to tell the universe Fuck You! today!
Gravity legally cannot hurt you if you scream “NO GODS NO MASTERS” immediately before impact
I’m so fucking tired of this bicycle helmet discourse. Bike helmets aren’t going to do shit to protect you if you get hit by a car
Most of the time… Bike accidents…. Involve things…. Other than cars…… like the ground….also it’s safety gear….. Wearing it is non negotiable…. You are one accident away from being permanently disabled….. You need to protect your brain
Not towards OP
Is OSHA and other safety regulations also cop behavior?
*sigh* The belief that OSHA and other safety regulations are cop behavior are common opinions that people have, anarchist or not. Wearing PPE is annoying and often uncomfortable, sweaty, and cumbersome. People also generally hate being told to be careful, because they believe that “be careful” is synonymous with “hey, you’re too stupid to do that without hurting yourself”.
But all it takes is one time for you to slip up and suddenly the grinder disk that would have gotten stuck in your safety glasses is in your eye, or you’re getting treated for lung cancer because you didn’t want to wear your respirator while you welded. These are decisions that you were free to make, but might seriously regret later on.
People will scream until they’re blue in the face about how oppressive it is to have to wear a safety vest and hard hat on a construction site, but do you really think that the hammer that slipped out of your buddy’s hand is going to take that into consideration when it collides with your skull?
No political theory will save you from an accident. You can either wear your PPE, or can die, unexpectedly, painfully, and slowly. The choice is yours. Go argue with a lathe if you feel so strongly about it.

@breelandwalker it is criminal to leave this scorching point in the tags
a few points:
• every safety rule is written in blood
• OSHA exists so the boss can’t force you to die for their profits. it was started as a result of union action, as a direct response to the triangle shirtwaist factory fire. OSHA is constantly fighting for worker’s rights and protection. whistleblower laws protect any employee who makes an OSHA complaint against their employer, and anyone who reports is guaranteed anonymity and aggressive legal support against retaliation. there is also a separate health and safety administration for miners in the USA called MSHA.
• the people most likely to get hurt on the job are not apprentices or senior workers approaching retirement. the new hire is careful because they’re green, and still learning, and still unfamiliar with the tools and the work. the old hand is careful because retirement is within sight and they want to make it there. the person who gets hurt is usually the journeyman at the peak of their career—in their 30s-50s, an expert at their trade, their tools feel like an extension of themselves, and they’re so comfortable they forget to be careful. they’ve gotten lucky cutting corners or using something incorrectly or taking off a guard or leaving off some safety equipment 1000 times but one day they’re tired or distracted or too comfortable or too confident and the luck runs out.
• some accidents you cannot just avoid with skill, or you have no personal control over them. sometimes you have to trust your coworkers with your life. the big blue crane collapse killed three ironworkers who were on an observation platform, doing other work, far from the crane, with no ability to prevent or escape the collapse. the crane collapsed as a result of being operated despite adverse conditions, despite the normal crane operator refusing to run the crane due to adverse conditions making it unsafe, and was filmed because a safety inspector was recording the violation and attempting to stop it. the operator of the crane got out safely, but three ironworkers who were hundreds of feet away, who didn’t know the crane would be operating despite unsafe wind speeds, and who were trapped in midair anyways with no way to avoid or escape the collapse, and who above all just had to trust that everyone on the job site would be working safely and doing their jobs correctly, died. that footage has been used in every OSHA training i have ever been in.
• every safety rule is written in blood.

I kind of find it interesting (along with disheartening and downright enraging) how the online queer community is stuck in a constant and endless toxic discourse loop. Each time, we are targeting a new ingroup to constantly harass, bar from spaces, and twitter threads about how this identity-is-so-problematic, and if you support it you’re Hitler incarnate and also you’re on 200 DNI lists.
Whether it’s nonbinary people, “tucutes”, xenogenders, neopronouns, asexuals, bisexuals, trans women, trans men, girlfags, lesboys, bi lesbians etc. It’s always the same thing.
“We must stop these ‘harmful identities’ and conservatives will finally love us and we will solve homophobia and transphobia forever if we get rid of boydykes and girlfags! And trust me, when this happened to nonbinary people it was TOTALLY unjustified, but it’s totally for a good reason this time!”
Like, do you guys not see this? Am I actually crazy or is it just the same loop over and over. And like in my last post about transandrophobia, if you come to this post discoursing, I’ll be laughing in your face for how pathetic this all is.

ok this is something i see kind of often and i want to address it because i feel like people are getting worse and worse at this:
when writing anon hate dont end it with “lol”. it COMPLETELY undercuts the sincerity of your criticism. By saying “lol” you’re saying “I’m admitting that the purpose of this message is to make you feel bad, not give you advice that WOULD make you feel bad about yourself or your identity”.
as little as 5 years ago people would send flames that actually HURT a person. you used to get MEANINGFUL attacks on who you were at your core, shit you couldnt change. nowadays its all fuckin “maybe if you stanned twice your hair wouldnt look so greasy LOL” like what the fuck ever dude this petty gradeschool recess shittalk does not stick with a person, you forget about it within 200 seconds and get on with what youre doing.
put some effort into your insults. make a person feel like shit, god damn, i just want to FEEL something.
Okay this one is slightly better because it’s filled with genuine malice beyond a single fact about me. The problem with THIS insult, however, is that your anger with me specifically is coming through so thick that I can tell you’re attacking me from an emotional place and not a logical one, making it kind of hollow.
Additionally, I have no idea where you got 3 different parts of your argument; sad brony, clown aesthetic, guilt trip over a VR headset.
The clown aesthetic I guess I understand because I talk about my interest in clowns a lot, but that’s like saying I have a “ghost aesthetic” because I like ghosts or a “video game aesthetic” because I like videogames.
The other two I legit have no idea where you’re getting those from, which makes me think that you saw a stray post or two of mine and established an idea of what I must be like in your head from a subjective perspective based on a few strands of information.
This is definitely a step up though! We’ve graduated from grade school to middle-school.
If anyone else has one I’d love to get one more good one in! The bar is pretty low so far so hit me with a juicy one. I’m going to bed soon and I want you to hit me with something that I’ll be thinking about when I wake up in the morning!
when a human infant is in the womb, moments from being be born, a vague figure of glowing amber light appears before them. in one hand, it holds a small soapstone carving of a coiled eel. in the other hand it holds a mortar and pestle made of polished red quartz. it bids the infant to choose between these two things, but we don’t know the significance of this choice, because all babies throughout history with no exception have always picked the soapstone eel. so that’s still one of the big mysteries out there.

Finnish soldier gets separated from the rest of his unit but he’s the only one carrying the emergency amphetamines for the unit, takes too many and goes on a one man rampage for like 2 weeks straight giving the opposing Soviet soldiers nightmares for decades. Oh and he did it all on skis.
Did he survive?
Yes, during his methed up 2-3 week rampage he got injured by a land mine, travelled 400km on skis, and only ate pine buds and a Siberian Jay that he caught which he ate raw. When he made it back to Finnish lines he was taken to a hospital where it was found his heart rate was nearly 200 beats per minute and his weight had dropped to 43kg (94.7lbs).
His name was Aimo Koivunen if you want to look him up

“You shouldn’t call video game genres [thing]likes because” buddy, it’s a natural transitional state. Lots of video game genres started out being named after their most notable entry or entries. FPSes used to be called “Doom clones” before evolving their own terminology. Some genres never do, and people just forget about the original game and keep the name. How many roguelike fans are familiar with Rogue? How many adventure game fans even know the genre is named after a game called Adventure?
False cognate, I’m afraid. The term “adventure game” originated in the 1970s to describe the various imitators of a specific piece of parser-driven interactive fiction called Colossal Cave Adventure, whose title was often abbreviated simply to Adventure to save space. That’s why the term “adventure game” is particularly associated with point-and-click hidden object games with complex inventory puzzles (i.e., because they’re graphical Adventure-likes), and why parser-driven interactive fiction games are often informally called “text adventures” (i.e., to distinguish them from Adventure-likes with graphics).
Also for what it’s worth, “[thing]like” is so much more pleasant to read fifty thousand times than the many combinations of:
base building
open-world
survival
PvP
PvE
crafting
resource management
With deckbuilding elements
Deck Building: the Deck-Building Deck Building Game, where you build a deck
as for action-adventure, that largely stems from how early Nintendo games would be categorized as “adventure” games if they took place in a continuous world rather than a series of discrete levels, e.g. the original Legend of Zelda. eventually, “action-” was appended to the front in order to differentiate the lineage from text-based and graphical/point-and-click adventure games.
(also note that the usage of “action-adventure” was, for a while, also in a transitional phase where some people used it, some people didn’t, and others used it inconsistently, or with a different interpretation of exactly what it meant, throughout the 2010s, like many transitional phases of language)
i’ll hold firm that the genre “roguelikes” should be reserved for turn-based top-down RPGs where death is permanent and each run is entirely new (Caves of Qud, DCSS, Nethack, ToME, etc.) and “roguelites” should be for games that step outside the core genre concept and simply have perma-death, often with incremental bonuses between runs. alternately, rename “roguelites” to “hadeslikes”
The only problem with doing that is that despite hades being very high quality and wildly popular, it was made well after the rouguelite genre became popular and widely recognized.
If anything, rouguelites should be named for the Binding of Isaac.
If we’re gonna be very pedantic, the precision puzzle platformer was initially popularised outside of Flash-game circles by Super Meat Boy (2010), which was in turn derivative of Maddy Thorson’s Jumper (2004) – yes, the same Maddy Thorson who later made Celeste. This means a.Celeste didn’t popularise the genre, it merely took back the crown; and b. if any sort of [thing]like title is warranted, our choices are either jumplikes or meatlikes – neither of them great options!
I’m convinced if ppl on this site knew how crappy gifs look before you color them properly, they would appreciate editors more
for context reasons, this is how a gif I used in a recent gifset looks like without any adjustments/coloring whatsoever:
and here it is afterwards:
I truly don’t think people realize how dingy and dark most movies and tv shows actually are so they can’t appreciate the work and skill it takes to make gifs look the way your brain “remembers” it looking.
Another before and after example:
This gif needed 6 different adjustment layers, not including the sharpening process, which is its own separate challenge. The blue window was also changed to green to keep the palette more consistent and to reduce the range of colors needed, because a wider range of colors generally results in worse gif quality since gifs only support a max of 256 (compared to the millions your monitor can display).
yeah…
I was already going to reblog this because gifmakers need all the love, but the little lambie made sure that I was definitely going to do it.
dark scenes are truly the bane of every gifmaker’s soul
The ecosystem of tumblr fandom relies on gif makers - put some respect on their names!!

Love seeing something from TikTok and going “girlie that is literally what led to the downfall of the Papal States”
Jewish baby named Edgardo Mortara is seemingly about to die in Bologna, 1851
Catholic nanny secretly baptises him to save his soul, which she’s not exactly the kind of authority who can do that, but w/e, it’s interpreted by the church as valid later
Kid survives
1857 her secret gets out, a baptising makes a kid a Catholic according to the Church and a Catholic can’t be raised in a non-Catholic household in the Papal States, so the church authorises the police to kidnap Edgardo from his family
Raised personally by Pope Pius IX, Jewish family not allowed to take him back due to Church doctrine, this action destroys the family with grief and despair
This case gets international infamy with the Pope not understanding why everyone’s shiting on him for doing this, including allies
Emperor Napoleon III shifts from opposing Italian unification to supporting it as a direct consequence
Bologna falls the next year, 1859
Kingdom of Italy forms 1861
By 1870 Rome is lost to the Italians and the Papal States are no more
(Edgardo Mortara goes on to become Father Mortara)
(He dies in Belgium in 1940 three months before the Nazis occupied the nation, which if he’d have lived he would’ve been persecuted as a Jew)
Here it is! Narinder Maid Cafe! Done before the end of the year too! Thank you for everyone who submitted! If you didn’t get the chance to join, don’t worry. We’re already planning something for next year with Lamb designs!
Gotta say, it was SO MUCH FUN drawing all these different designs! I find it so fascinating how many takes people have on Narinder. Honestly loved every single one. I think the most interesting theme is how pretty much all of them have wrist scars, even without that being in his end game design. Also, for the two refs I got that were uncolored, I just used canon Narinder’s pallet.
I hope everyone enjoys and leaves a 5 star review on Google for the Narinder Maid Cat Cafe. They accidentally scheduled 16 employees at once and have no customers!!!
I LOOOVE how fucking stupid you are. queer is used as a slur just like faggot, tranny (of which i am both), among others. Just because you want to be called queer or don't see an issue with jt doesn't magically mean it doesn't still negatively hurt people all over the world. If someone called me a faggot to my face I'd be fine but if someone called me a queer I'd explode their testicles. I hope this helps you fucking moron
