if anything, I think it’s better if these people feel comfortable enough to tag their stuff as ai, so that other people can avoid their works if they’re not comfortable with ai-generated contents.

that said, I think ai writers will stop tagging their stuff as ai entirely if people shame or harass them for it.

so now their stuff is still ai, just untagged, meaning there’s no way for others to know if it’s ai.

keep in mind that speculation, accusations and witch hunt harm genuine artists and writers as much as ai does, if not more.

so if you go to the “ai-generated” tag on ao3 just to harass people for using ai, just know that you’re not actually fighting against ai — you’re just being a bully and you’re also making people more wary of properly tagging their ai-generated works as such. so you’re just making sure they no longer tag their ai-generated stuff as ai. also you can be reported for harassment, and ao3 will not take your side. (whether or not you like it, ai-generated works are allowed on ao3, whereas harassment is not.)

the “ai-generated” tag on ao3 is there so people can either find or avoid works with ai (but in order for it to work, ai users must feel comfortable enough to be honest and tag their works properly, that won’t happen if people keep shaming and harassing them for it — the only thing harassment will do is make sure ai stuff go untagged, harassment doesn’t stop people from using ai).

i love not using refs and just drawing messy every now and then <3 (the squirrel is my fav here lol) (and maybe the ribbon too) (and that may or may not be a very shitty looking relic in the corner)

☆ A villain who thinks they're the hero is scarier than one who knows they're evil.

☆ Give them something they love. It makes everything worse.

☆ Their logic should make sense, even if their actions don't.

☆ The best villains don't monologue. They ask questions.

☆ Not every villain needs a tragic backstory. Some people are just hungry for power.

☆ Let them win sometimes. Repeatedly, it raises the stakes.

☆ A villain who is polite is more unsettling than one who screams.

☆ They should change the hero just as much as the hero changes them.

☆ Give them a genuine friendship or loyalty somewhere. It humanizes without excusing.

☆ The scariest thing a villain can do is be right about something.

☆ Not every villain needs to die. Some walk away. Some become allies. Some just... disappear.
