My, myā¦ what big teeth you have! Meet the Pacific stargazer (Astroscopus zephyreus). Found in coastal waters from California to Peru, this fish is an ambush hunter. Spending most of its life buried beneath the sand, the stargazerās upturned face is an adaptation that allows it to see even when most of its body is concealed. Whatās more? This species is capable of stunning prey with electrical shocks of up to 50 volts! Photo: alboertoalcala, CC BY 4.0 iNaturalist

so i think the solution is to give dachshunds a third pair of legs right in the middle
Right. Right, listen. Here's what you're gonna do, okay? First of all you're gonna gather your party to venture forth. Your party includes:
80ml olive oil (do NOT scrimp on the Oil!) 200gr basmati or long grain rice 300gr some kind of minced meat, chicken beef pork you can even mix and match it's fine 400gr butternut squash cubes (I GUESS they can be Other Squash Cubes? I do not know for a Fact) 1 big (BIG) onion, finely chopped 0.5 to 1 cinnamon stick depending on how sweet you like things 0.5 teaspoon cumin seeds 1 kefir lime leaf 1 teaspoon saffron (ideally; but turmeric is Fine Too) Large handful coriander (or parsley if you gotta), finely chopped 420ml boiled water
You got your party down? Cool cool. Now you're gonna take a pot and heat up that oil over a medium-high heat and throw the cumin seeds in for like 30 seconds to get Fragrant. Then add the onion and transparentify it. Onion transparentifying in olive oil is the most beautiful sight in the world your soul is already ascending. Throw the squash cubes in and give them five minutes. Next you clear a space in the middle of the pot maybe glug in another spoonful of oil and toss in the meat and mix it good good good with some salt+pepper break it up crumble it push it around until it's starting to brown. Then you're gonna throw in the cinnamon and the kefir lime leaf and the saffron and the coriander and take a BIG inhale of the aroma ooooh it's so good then you can add the rice. Mix again for 2-3 minutes do it with love. Pour in the water bring to a boil cover the pot and put on a small fire for exactly 22 minutes. Survive 22 minutes smelling that smell I can't help you with that part. Then you're gonna turn the flame off but DO NOT OPEN THE POT DON'T DO IT you're gonna wait another ten minutes. Then you can open the pot, and you can shovel that stuff in your mouth like a joyful wild animal.
How did I, a person with no hands and the balance of a newly hatched owlet, end up in a job that regularly requires me to juggle.

No, no, and NO.
AO3 does not live in āthe cloudā because that is other peopleās computers, and other peopleās computers are vulnerable to censorship.
AO3 is on its own computers. It does still have to be housed somewhere, and I suppose a determined enough hater could try to find that place and go after it, but itās a lot harder than sending spurious complaints to Amazon or whomever going āBadWrong things are hosted on your cloud service!ā
Owning the servers is a core tenet of OTW/AO3.
Warming up a new database serverā¦.
When people involved with AO3 talk about āthe cost of serversā they donāt mean āthe cost to pay Amazon for space on their servers.ā They mean, like, the cost to physically own them, and eventually replace them with new ones. And the operating costs to run them.
AO3 is not āin the cloud.ā AO3 is stored on physical machines that the OTW owns.
While this is not a solution that can work for everyone who wants to deal with controversial content, it is why AO3ple sneer at alt-righters who complain about getting thrown off hosting platforms.
I Want Us to Own the Goddamned Servers
BecauseĀ I want us to own the goddamned servers, ok? Because I want a place where we canāt beĀ TOSedĀ and where no one can turn the lights off or try to dictate to us what kind of stories we can tell each other.
AO3 is what a website looks like when you seize the means of production.
Absolutely!
AO3 was established because of fic being thrown off website hosts, fic being censored and/removed, and fic writers and archivists being sued by IP owners and authors.
The only way AO3 could ever exist without those daily threats is by owning their own servers and domain (and awesome lawyers and everyone else involved).
That is why there are no ads. That is why it is (typically) stable. That is why there are strict tagging rules.
We Can Actually Have Nice Things.
They set out to ensure we could for future generations, and past generations and current generations. They are fighting the good fight, so you donāt have to.
The Organization for Transformative Works (who created AO3) are an actual non-profit organization, not a company.
"on god's green earth" is way too fun to say even when you don't believe in god and know most of it is blue, actually

soooo embarrassing to get obsessed w a specific character when no one else gives a damn. like yeah heres post #574934. heres au idea #26482. heres art piece #9383. yes its all about the same person, yes i am rambling in the corner blair witch style. feel free to shoot me dead for this btw
I see this, sympathise deeply, and raise you: obsessed with a very popular character you read in a totally different way to everyone else.
Look, while I am certainly a proponent of the Greet Every Day with Breathless Wonder school of thought, I think it's also good to sometimes remember that you are a human creature with electrified fat in your skull and you only have so much Breathless Wonder in you. Some days you will be tired and hate everything and some days you will just kind of exist. And if you also end up beating yourself up over having ungratefully wasted the irreplaceable day that'd suck okay. Not being able to find singular beauty and joy in every single goshhecking moment isn't a personal failure. You gotta have like. a baseline. variability of experience. you know. Not everything can glow all the time. It's fine. You're fine.
Although if we're doing breathless wonder I do have home-grown peas.

When I am king, we will valorize sanitation workers the way we currently valorize the military
So heroic posters showing trashmen battling allegorical monsters? I'm down.
Yeah but that's just the beginning. I also want Sanitation Worker Discounts at every business and blockbuster movie propaganda glorifying sanitation work. I want random people to salute garbage collectors and thank them for their service. I want drivers who get impatient with the recycling truck and honk at it and swerve around it to become social pariahs
