Pathologizing: Hey sorry I yelled at you. I have this ADHD symptom called RSD that makes me really sensitive.
Humanizing: Hey, I’m sorry that I blew up like that earlier. In the moment I felt really attacked and overwhelmed and I reacted badly, but I know you didn’t mean to offend me with what you said, so that behavior is on me.
Because I just saw a post bitching about this one, I want to add: this post is saying that you need to take accountability for the way you hurt other people, even if it happens because of a symptom of your disability/illness. It's also saying that using terms (especially acronyms) that aren't common knowledge isn't a helpful way to explain yourself. It is NOT saying that you need to let people walk all over you because "your disability isn't an excuse."
If you're diabetic, you don't have to eat the honey glazed ham that will send you into a coma (their example). But you also can't yell at the person offering it and accuse them of trying to kill you. You can just say "thanks, but my body can't handle that kind of sugar intake, so I'll pass"

Me: "Damn people are REALLY BAD at knowing when to tag their eyestrain art/images...either that or they just don't care about photosenitive epileptic people like me. I feel really sad now."
Person: "But Allison, what if they just don't know or understand what qualifies as eyestrain and what doesn't?"
Me: "You know what? That could be a factor...While it is always better to be safe rather than sorry (so YES people should always tag eyestrain even if they're unsure if it "counts" or not) maybe you've got a point?"
Anyways! HERE'S YOUR HANDY GUIDE TO WHAT CAN COUNT AS EYESTRAIN! I'm pulling this straight from the Artfight rules page about what needs to be labeled and filtered as eyestrain because it's VERY helpful and VERY accurate! I also know not everybody has an AF account and might not always have access to this handy guide, and this is an important resource; That's why I'm sharing it here! (under the cut)
PLEASE TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY!!! THIS IS ABOUT THE HEALTH AND SAFETY OF OTHERS!!!
Full eyestrain AF page link
"But Allison! How were you able to screenshot that example if you're so sensitive to eyestrain?"
I dimmed the HELL out of my computer screen and looked away while taking the screenshot and did the same when putting it into this post, that's how lol. BUT YEAH ANYWAYS!!! Once again:
PLEASE TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY!!! THIS IS ABOUT THE HEALTH AND SAFETY OF OTHERS!!!
Too many children in the comments like ‘I think authors should be able to share ko-fi links :) it’s just nice’ and ‘OP is just a cop.’ Homie, OP is trying to keep AO3 fully functional without interruption. I will report your ass, too, because I value fic artists and our freedom of expression and my audience and our shared history far more than I value the few bux you wanna make on a commission.
It is not hard to link to your Tumblr or Twitter with a vague message like, “If you’re looking for my other works or other ways of supporting me, go here: link.” I have had people buy me coffees after enjoying my fic and asking where to support me. I threw up a link to my Tumblr and people cared enough to follow it. They were fully understanding when I explained in the comments that they could not commission me and I could not link them directly to any donation platform, but they could go to xyz link to read more. And they did! Nobody has to put AO3 directly on the firing line.
Go ahead and commission independently. Just do it anywhere else except on AO3. And then don’t come crying to the community when you, personally, get a C&D from a massive corporation.
AO3 is our bullet shield. Tumblr will pull your shit down. Wattpad won’t fucking protect you. LJ and FF.net already sold our asses for one (1) corn chip. AO3 is trying to protect us, you goddamn lemmings.
If you cannot follow the rules that protect fanspaces, you do not belong in our fanspaces.
The only people who misunderstand this are doing so intentionally and maliciously. Do yourself a favor and block the infants who think this isn’t a big deal.
Please remember that this ALSO INCLUDES FANDOM CHARITY AUCTIONS.
When you post charity auction fics, DO NOT note that they are commissions in any way. You can note them as “here is my thank you gift to X for such-and-such event” but please please PLEASE do not list them as commissions.
I think a lot of younger people are seeing this as a moral panic by OP. These are NOT being laid out as moral injunctions! This is not about being good! This is about covering your own ass and keeping fandom away from larger-scale legal trouble. No one is saying “If you break the rules you’re BEING BAD!” They’re trying to tell you “breaking these rules is DANGEROUS for yourself and potentially others as well!”
you spend one (1) second thinking too hard about Kaito's life and you realize how insanely fucked up it is and how his entire personality is a trauma response and how he's actually incredibly lonely, with barely anyone who understands him, and
and you look at Kaito himself
and he's having a GRAND old time
little shit rubbing his hands together giggling like a cartoon villain reading news about himself on the newspaper to boost his ego

Why is it always "Agent Camel, what the hell man, you blew my cover" and never "Thank you Agent Camel for blowing my cover, resulting in me having to get removed from the country, and by extension, removed from the immediate radius of one extremely angry Bourbon, who was probably twelve steps deep into a convoluted plan to ensure I "accidentally" died while out in the field. Thanks Camel, you're such a bro."
Heads up that, as of 6/8/26, if you use Google Lens, Google is now saving any images you upload and using them to train their AI models. You can turn this off here.
[Transcript: "Your media is saved when Search History is on: Saved media includes your images, files, audio and video from your interactions with Search services to help improve your experience. For example, this lets you revisit your past visual searches with Lens or continue a Search Live conversation about a song you heart. To support these types of interactive product experiences, Google will now save your media to your Search Services History, applying robust privacy and security protections. Like your Search Services History, your saved media is also used to develop and improve Google services and technologies, including AI models and safety measures. With this transition, if your Web & App Activity setting is currently turned on, this new Save Media subsetting will also be turned on along with your Search Services History. You can turn off your Save Media subsetting at any time, and you can also delete individual pieces of media from your history." End ID.]
I think part of getting better is complete ego death. Like you’re not above setting a timer for 5 minutes and focusing on a task. You’re not above doing a very simple 3 minute workout to start. You’re not above reading for 10 minutes a day when you first get out of your reading slump, even if you used to read for hours. You’re not above starting slow and then building up to where you want to be/where you once were. What you are above is total inertia. Doing something really is better than doing nothing. Radically accept where you are, radically accept your limits, and go from there. Don’t let your ego get in the way.

#they really said “you can’t use wiki as an academic source-use our garbage AI that’s even less reliable”#and you can’t even opt out of it
no but you can FORCE it away. use ublock origin and copy paste the blacklist i made into the filters to be able to remove the bullshit AI overview that google forces. it also removes youtube's forced ads (at least until they fix it)
you can also use the ublacklist extension and use this blacklist of AI image generation websites to curate your google image results
there are ALWAYS ways around stuff. it's just a matter of looking into it and asking around
couldn't summon enough obsession for one webnovel so i'm simply just combining SOME of my lovely, darling fav novels <333 designs are NOT strictly canon-accurate, but more so what I was imagining? somewhat? descriptions for all novel/characters below!!! :] trying to enjoy drawing againnnnn, let's see if i do anatomy practice omg, im rusty.
From leftmost to rightmost:
SU BEI <333 A boy given knowledge they're a disposable background character in a potentially failing, bad-ending manga vows to survive by using audience expectations to manipulate the world. (MGTS = Manga Guide to Survive -> A Guide for Background Characters to Survive in a Manga). He's clever, independent, but gleefully avoids the hassle the manga's protagonist go through, but ends up ropes in anyway. i love him so much.
SETH THORN <33333 A game developer with a fatal disease is transported into a world with terrifying gates/dungeons, and given a system that promises a cure if he obeys. He has the soul of a sadistic jester, got proposed to by a conductor if you squint, and is trying very hard not to cackle at people's suffering. Hobbies including gaslighting his coworkers and only tolerating the existence of his childhood friend. (HGAS = Horror Games Aren't Scary -> Horror Game Developer: My Games Aren't That Scary). my fav freak slowly transforming into a powerful, gleeful monster.
SEO GIO <333 A painter who ends up inside a magical portrait as the world changed, just trying to vibe leisurely and make friends. Unbeknownst to him, though, he has the distinct demeanor of a hopefully well meaning eldritch being going "pspsppsps" towards humanity, while insisting he is a regular guy. No one believes him. (TDP = The Dungeon Painter -> The Artist Who Paints the Dungeon.) imagine gio's in a slice life anime and everyone else is a slowburn horror story. once wrote a letter to his fav employee and it teleported into that guy's house and was utterly unknowable in any language.
THE ASCETIC <3333 A gamer pushed into the body of a npc from a game he just completed, forced to play a convincing, kindly, but otherworldly cult leader. He grows his fanbase, tries to untangle himself from enemies, and is convincingly a somewhat eldritch/godly being in a human skin-suit trying to help others. He thinks everyone is are obsessive weirdos, who should stop believing shit he says. Try killing him and witness the EYES start appearing from his blood! You are Known. You are Seen. You Are seen. You Are Seen. (WCL = Wise Cult Leader -> The Life of a Wise Cult Leader)
THEO LISTOEL <333 Bound into a body of a sickly noble's son, Theo must progress the game he's been entrapped in, impacting the lives of the characters he's known so well. He's given the one ability of Writer, able to write reality with the low, low cost of concerning everyone he knows by bleeding profusely from his eyes and mouth, collapsing, and somehow being vaguely son shaped to a demon king. Peak father-son + friendship dynamics to me. (WNPC = Weakest NPC, Surviving as the Academy's Weakest NPC)
KIM SOLEUM <33 alright, on everyone's soul, we ALL know kim soleum lol, but an avid scary story fans gets randomly transported into the very (dangerous) world he loves. However, determined to get back home, he must work his way up his company to grant his wish, even if it means befriending entities, getting yearned after by a TV ghost, chopping off his own limbs! Besides the natural fear of getting killed/trapped/mauled/etc, he's got a real love for the stories he must survive. (GSGW = Ghost Story Gotta Work -> Trapped in a Ghost Story, Still Gotta Work)
just saw a 'comments' tab on someones blog you know where the following and likes tabs would be if enabled and it was just showing all the replies theyve made on peoples posts. this is fascinating when did this feature come out
if you've made replies on posts there is now a tab on your blog showing every post youve replied to and your reply.
if this is not what you want, either go to your blog and click comments and disable it from there or just go to your individual blogs setting pages. just change it from blue to grey if you dont want everyone to see your replies AND the post you're replying to
PLEASE BE ADVISED that it is set to disabled for blogs that have not made any replies but it will turn ON if you reply with that blog in the future.! i just tested it with my main, which was greyed out but it turned on the moment i left a test reply
figured i'd get the word out bc i have not seen a single mention of this and i'm sure there are plenty of people who maybe comment on things they don't want on display for everyone to see on their blog lol. you can still look at your replies with it toggled off just no one else can, like locking the following and likes list
so for some reason this feature was actually announced on the tumblr engineering blog. interesting choice not to reblog it to the staff or tumblr blog, esp considering they asked for user input on how to implement it, but i suppose considering the response to the last update maybe the replies would be too overwhelming...
so couple of clarifications. comments are disabled as default for primary blogs that have their likes disabled. they are seemingly enabled for all other blogs that have replied to posts
posts you comment on may show on your followers 'for you' page if you leave your replies publically available. they may, in the future, show in on your followers dashboard if your follower goes to their dash settings and enables this. apparently, if your likes are enabled, your followers can already see those on the dash if they've gone into preferences and selected to do so, which I was unaware of, and that seems to be disabled at default, but it's possible i disabled it previously and forgot about it ig
sometimes u have to make ur friends uncomfortable by making them aware they've said something reactionary and u have to let them sit in that discomfort bc otherwise they'll not question anything

I don't think Yue Qingyuan believes that Shen Jiu can do no wrong -- I think Yue Qingyuan is actually far too accustomed with how much wrong he can do and therefore believes that what Shen Jiu does is wrong even if there isn't any proof (brothels + Liu Qingge).
Mostly I believe this due to the fact that Yue Qingyuan is overrun with guilt for not being there for Shen Jiu that he accepts that Shen Jiu turned out horrible because of him. And instead of correcting the behavior or doing something to stop it, he welcomes it as his own punishment. This is probably a massive part on why Yue Qingyuan is so quick to defend him, but so slow to believe him.
