I was typing an entire post about food issues and why I don't like wet food, until I remembered that unlike in Dutch, 'wet food' has a specific meaning in English. Just straight up deleted everything bc all I could see myself as was
You’ve heard of OTPs and NoTPs, now get ready for…
WOAH-TPs, pairings you never considered but now ship.
Stop putting DNI on your tags and stop bringing shipping discourse into AO3
AO3 hid the story and asked OP to remove the tag (the fanfic is not even removed) due to the inflammatory tag. That's deserved. AO3 is not a social media for people to fight over ship and chronically online discourse. It's a library. If people keep bringing DNI and discourse into AO3 it'll make the place toxic for writers and reader.
What are you trying to accomplish with putting DNI? Do you think people actually care about DNI? No, it's just making you looking like an asshole doing this
Also AO3 was founded by a Wincest and Thorki shipper. Astolat made AO3 because FF net and other sites keep purging nsfw fanfic. AO3 is literally made for problematique shipper that op don't like.
Then OP doing this? For what? People want to enjoy reading their fanfic not seeing DNI and online discourse on AO3. I hate using the word virtue signaling as it's often used to demean progress but this is what a real virtue signaling looks like 🤦🤦♀️
(I bet op wrote more inflammatory tags on their fic other than 'proshitter DNI get a life' because it take a lot to get your story hidden or removed)
Louder for the people in the back.
AO3 IS A PROSHIP SPACE
If you don't want to see pro shipping stuff then don't go into proship spaces.
If only there were some robust system in place to let you tag what your story IS and then a robust search function to allow other people who want your content to find it more easily while not having to interact with content they don't have an interest in.
If only.
You put a book in a library and tried to say some people couldn't have it. That's not how a library works.
AO3 is for all the freaky little weirdos who got kicked out of everywhere else. You don't get to come in and bitch about the wallpaper.
Take your "ewww shipping" fuckshittery and build your own fucking website. You can even use AO3's code if you want.
They make it openly available to anyone. For free. No questions. No qualifiers. No moral superiority wank.
You don't like how AO3 runs shit? Run your own shit.

Friend and I are debating whether something is common knowledge or not.
I feel like asking Tumblr specifically if they're aware of a myth that revolves around romantic notions of sacrificing freedom and trusting the person you love to not abuse your trust and being so devoted to someone you'll hand over the most precious thing you own and also hot naked ladies is not a good test of something being common knowledge.
george lucas, remarkably unsubtley, over and over again: the fall of the republic was because of corporate interests interfering with politics and increased complacency with fascist ideas in the face of a manufactured war
