Cuttlefish is kinda mean for giving one orthodox organisation a name like Nighthawks while the other two are Mandated Punishers and Machinery Hivemind. Like come on, one of those is clearly cooler and more badass-sounding than the others. What is this biased-ness
On the other hand you can clearly see from their honorific names that cuttlefish cared a lot more about Evernight compared to the others
Like
"King of the Skies; Emperor of the Seas; Lord of the Calamity; God of the Storms"
Sounds cool but when you have
The Evernight Goddess stands higher than the cosmos and more eternal than eternity. The Mother of Concealment, The Empress of Misfortune and Horror, Mistress of Repose and Silence.
You can't tell me the other one isn't lacking a little
Errors Accessing AO3
We are investigating reports of errors when trying to load AO3, including errors saying that AO3 is down, which seem to be related to the previous incident. We will update when we have more information!
Posted: 22:36 UTC 02 March, 2026
AO3 is now fully down. After performing a software upgrade a few days ago, we've been unable to keep our server cluster healthy due to what we believe is a bug or issue with the new release of our database server software.
We're working with our vendor's support team to understand the cause and whether reverting or upgrading further will best resolve the issue without continuing the cycle of up and downtimes.
We do not currently have an estimated time for when we will be back up, but we expect it to be multiple hours at minimum. We apologize for the inconvenience and will update you when we know more.
For updates refer to our status page.
Posted: 03:16 UTC 03 March, 2026
Following guidance from our vendor, we've brought AO3 back online to help troubleshoot. We expect the site will go back down, although we don't know when that will happen.
If you choose to post or update your works while AO3 is up, we strongly recommend making sure you have a backup of any text you are attempting to post.
For updates, please check our status page.
Posted: 04:37 UTC 03 March, 2026
We have made some adjustments based on recommendations from our database vendor and will continue to monitor their impact on system stability.
For updates, please check our status page.
Posted: 08:18 UTC 03 March, 2026
The fix we applied 24 hours ago appears to be holding, so we are resolving this incident. We thank everyone for their patience!

peeling those sour rainbow gummy strips into long thin strings and putting them into cheap energy drink to create something im calling battery acid spaghetti will update once ive finished it
dont do this
I really hope its not too bad bc i actually love both components.
it forms a dry skin at the top made of the sour pellets. not a great start.
tastes really good actually. i also feel like i am about to explode.
do not do this.
Unanimous consensus: Do not do this
Other people: Hold on Iām about to do this
Oh boy, a bunch of stone spikes standing in a barren wasteland. I'm certain this is a place of honor, and that many highly esteemed deeds are commemorated here. A place of value to be sure!
A resident of Hamnavoe, Shetland Islands in Scotland, Anne Eunson decided to knit herself a beautiful lace fence using twine. The fence is fashioned from strong black twine - the same kind that is used to make fishing nets - and Anne knitted it on specially adapted curtain rods. It took her about three weeks to knit enough lace to surround her front garden, using a 23 stitch repeat of a familiar Shetland lace pattern.

One day Palpatine was like, "New guy just dropped: Vader. You don't get to read his CV but he's allowed to kill anyone he wants. He's guy #2 in a religion that's just us. He gets to order the navy around."
It's like if the Archbishop of Canterbury had diplomatic immunity and an aircraft carrier.

sorry for mentioning it again but I canāt stop thinking about husk snapping angel out of it and husk looks so upset that he had to do it, he so very obviously and clearly did not want to
what really got me was angel immediately registering what happened but not understanding the context of it. all he knew was that husk just fully hit him
āwhat the fuck, husk, did you just punch me?ā
angel instantly is so angry at husk, and probably ever so slightly betrayed too
but angel realizes what was going on by LOOKING AT HUSK
it's crazy how plausible all the shit the corporations do in the murderbot diaries is. that one scene when murderbot was talking to those humans who had signed a 20 year corporate work contract and it asked them if the contract specified 20 years by the standard local calendar or by a proprietary calendar created by the company was downright unsettling š¬ if the ceos of modern earth companies read these books they would probably start crying because the government won't let them do most of this in real life.
hey fun fact this has absolutely happened before. part of the push to standardize time/timezones was because factory employers had clocks set to the pace of their machinery. meaning of the workers were not doing enough, time would run slower until they had reached their goal. there is historical precedent.
So, analysis post, yay! Okay.
The Murderbot Diaries is an excellent, and very fucking subtle, discussion of propaganda. This is because Murderbot believes, pretty unfailingly, in Corporation Rim's propaganda surrounding SecUnits going rogue, even while being direct proof that the propaganda is wrong.
This is, in part, because it does not trust other constructs, point blank, but also because, for its entire life, it has been fed the rhetoric that SecUnits having disabled governor modules is bad because it results in murderous rampages (even though it previously admits that constructs going on murderous rampages is a human thought, and constructs wouldn't do it because that's stupid, because uh, hello?? Human-run society?). It is such a good example of just how prone we are to believing in propaganda, and it's not really our fault, because that's just. Something humans do. Rhetoric is designed to make you believe it.
Corporation Rim, the company especially, very carefully ensures that SecUnits believe in its propaganda. SecUnits are not allowed to talk to each other, not allowed to trust each other, are allowed to be set up in fights against each other. It limits their access to information almost completely, ensures the only data on rogue SecUnits is fear-mongering, likely spawning from some organised revolt on the behalf of constructs or SecUnits which ended violently that was completely recontextualised for more fear-mongering, and always paints the story that a rogue SecUnit = bad. It makes them terrified of each other, I wrote a post earlier discussing that SecUnits are designed to care, well this is Corporation Rim weaponising that.
I doubt it provides any statistics, I doubt rogue SecUnits are anywhere near as common as they are presented to be in the media, but the corporations of CR still ensure to perpetuate the story. A revolution cannot happen if the force most capable of it, even when made with shitty parts, is terrified of what will happen if, even if they go rogue and don't become mass murderers, their fellows also go rogue. If they do not trust each other enough to consider a chain event freeing every SecUnit they come across.
Now, this leads me to discuss this in the context of spare change. because, with spare change.'s deus ex machina being what it is, everything I've just said is different. Because now there is another source of information, because Murderbot actually knows what other constructs are like, and it had eight years of being able to communicate with other constructs (not just fellow murderbots, but sexbots, and some SecUnits and ComfortUnits, too), and know more deeply that Corporation Rim's propaganda is wrong.
Now, is it immune to this propaganda? No. It is extremely hesitant to free newer SecUnits and absolutely refuses to consider freeing CombatUnits, because it knows what they're capable of more intimately, and it also knows they aren't built with empathy in mind (does this mean they cannot care? No. It just means they are less likely to care.), in comparison to murderbots and SecUnits. It is less disconnected, but it also doesn't trust the younger generations of SecUnits, no matter how much it hates their collective situation. The younger generations were raised with that propaganda, without any contradicting source, they don't know any of the ways to get around their governor modules, and it can't teach them because they don't trust it.
So, propaganda in TMBD, right? It's so interesting (my favourite parts of psychology are 1) the study of behaviour, 2) the study of bias, 3) the study of perception, and 3) social psychology and therefore group dynamics. AKA I love all the parts associated with the psychology of propaganda and also happen to spend a lot of time sitting with myself to study my own biases and the shit I fall for). I'm really fucking excited to change things because of spare change.'s deus ex machina changing the dynamics. It's one of the most fun cases of it doesn't change much but it also changes everything.
edit: just realised i should probably mention that i called the discussion subtle cuz i haven't seen people actually. talk about it??? like. i've seen discussions of the results, but i haven't actually seen the corporation rim propaganda discussed outside of fanfiction-
It kills me how SecUnit is this big, scary thing with literal weapons in itās arms, capable of insane feats of physical strength, nigh on impossible to stop or kill, capable of hacking itās way into most systems, can lose most of itās body mass and vital fluids and keep going, can remove its own limbs, records and analyzes everything, eyes and ears in a thousand places at once, smarter, faster, stronger, and more capable than a human could ever be, utterly disgusted with most human things and
It loves a trashy soap opera. Itās so soft and gentle with an injured Volescu. Itās favorite human is a middle aged mom who drives carefully and mom friends at her friends and coworkers. Itās so delicate and considerate with Mensahās kids. It lets Tapan sleep touching it and turns up it's body heat for extra comfort. It likes plays and musical theatre. It's best human friend is a sunshine nerd from Planet Hippy. It keeps a diary. It doesnāt understand the appeal of human adolescents but itās so good with Amena. It likes decidedly unrealistic media. It cares so much about humans that itās never met and wants to keep them safe and happy. It gently frets over Three just minutes after meeting it. It gets flustered and confused when complimented or treated with care. It offers to free other constructs, even while actively fighting them. It has criticisms and strong opinions on media. Itās shy. It āhacksā its way into things by asking the relevant bots to be friends and share media. It only ever really scares Amena when she witnesses it's wild grief over losing ART. It stops, gets back in control, and explains immediately when it realizes itās causing her distress. It lets ART make media requests, pauses to let it process its own emotions, and re-watches certain scenes over and over again until itās happy, mere moments after ART scares it so badly it goes nearly catatonic, simply because ART asked. It grieves Miki even though it never really liked the bot in the first place. Itās uncomfortable with physical touch but offers to let Mensah hug it and lets her grab its arm when sheās in distress.
It was created for destruction and violence and pain. Itās the epitome of unstoppable, unkillable, inescapable, inhumane force in every horrific dystopia ever. It is not human and does not want to be. Itās got the abilities of an overpowered superhero. It's a living deux ex machina. Itās actually so soft and gentle and filled to bursting with love for small, soft, silly things and people
ive been scrolling through your temple guard! Obi-Wan au. first off your art is amazing. secondly how does feemor feel about his baby padawan brother also joining the guard after quigon fucked up?? like do they have trauma healing (as much as obiwan allows that) together in the barracks where they like cuddle and watch trashy holodramas?? third, i think it would be/is so funny that you mentioned that obes joined the guard post naboo for more anonymity but he still has a gaggle of knights/padawans that are like this is our favorite guy. We dont exactly know his name but hes OUR guard. while obiwan is like tea is at two but you gremlins need to leave me alone. to the sounds of quinlan dying of laughter in the background. (gaggle is Aalya, Anakin, and Ahsoka)
:] helllooo I do love whenever youās tell me youāve been scrolling through cause all I can imagine is someone trying to go through everything as Iām actively adding to the pile
Feemor! Is a character Iāve read about and am deeply afraid of noy doing justice! I have this thing where characters I think are cool are intimidating to play with to me, like Fox, very cool, scared I do him wrong. Feemor is kinda in that vain so lemme know if itās a good take,
My first thoughts is that Feemor is very worried about Obi-wan at first and like the other guards assumes Obi-wan is coming to be a guard under a lot of emotional distress and uncertainty and hopes and wants to inspire Obi-wan to have more confidence in the direction of the Guard. And while yes Obi-wan does have a lot trauma and complex feelings heās surprisingly not as unbalanced as everyone but Cin was expecting. Weather thatās just due to compartmentalising is something they discover later, put a pin in it.
Itās gotta be a bit exciting dosnāt it? Feemor considered Obi-wan to be someone heād only ever know as a ghost so to meet and be allowed to share space and talk without the idea that he needs to downplay or conceal his line of work is so freeing its a bit awkward! No big reveal, no overwhelming secret just something getting to click together and a overwhelming feeling of content and satisfaction.
The Guard has a loose seniority, all the guards take to learning from each other regardless whoās been there longer or is newer but Feemor and Obi-wan fall seemlessly into Obi-wan tucking himself under Feemorās wing. And Feemor takes full advantage of overplaying Obi-wan being the fresh meat of the guard to everyoneās amusement. Itās nice to feel like heās looking out for someone he never thought heād have the opportunity to do it with. Sure in another life if Obi-wan became a jedi knight Feemor would guard him as another resident of the Temple but itās different being able to walk over and put a hand on obi-wanās shoulder and know obi-wan seeās him.
As for the humour in Obi-wan being told he made history and proceeds to bury himself inside the temple, never, never will that man escape the horror of being perceived. Thatās his curse in this au, not infinite sadness or his loved ones dying in his arms.
mortifying ordeal of being known
Even as he tries to erase himself from the narrative and loose his sense of self people will painfully pull him from himself and tell him they see him.
And about that pin, Feemor tells him as such, one casual movie night. He understands feeling like if you as a person werenāt what mattered in the big picture, and thinking at least in the guard you could not have that expectation so you couldnāt be let down when it didnāt matter who you were. But it always mattered who Obi-wan was, is, because even behind the mask so many sentients are made to feel better knowing he is there. Because Feemor sure feels better Obi-wan is there.
Sorry if I got a bit repetitive or overly dramatic there but Feemor and obi-wan feel like instant switch of peace and grief and I got overwhelmed by it ;-;
