Saying Ao3 Needs To Censor Certain Content Is Like Saying A Museum Can't Have Still Life Art That Includes

saying ao3 needs to censor certain content is like saying a museum can't have still life art that includes strawberries because you don't like them.

these are not real strawberries. you do not have to, and in fact cannot, eat them. no one with a strawberry allergy will be harmed by looking at them. no migrant workers were exploited in the picking of these strawberries. there were no questionable farming practices or negative environmental impacts from growing or transporting them.

because - and i cannot stress this enough - they are not real strawberries.

if you don't like strawberries, you don't have to look at the paintings. in fact, you can get a map of the museum that lists what works are in what rooms and just. not go in there. if you see one by mistake, you can look away. just keep walking. there's plenty of other stuff to see.

yes, real strawberries can cause real quantifiable harm to real people.

but again. these are not real strawberries.

you may have whatever feelings you like about strawberries, and so can i. you can draw and write about whatever fruit floats your boat, and so can i, even if that happens to be strawberries. and we can hang our art side by side in the same gallery, provided you understand that my strawberries are not about you (and your kumquats are, shocker, not about me) and that - and this is true - neither are real.

and when the fascists break down the doors and grab all the strawberry paintings and heap them in the street and set them on fire, please know that they are coming for your kumquats next.

so if you want a place where you can show off your beautiful kumquat art safely, you're gonna have to tolerate having some strawberries in the next room.

and that's okay. because the strawberries aren't real.

If “Well, this escalated quickly” has a pair, it has to be “Well this escalated further than I thought”, and this post is the prime example

day 1 at the communal puzzle club: i see a puzzle with a sign next to it that says "please help with our communal puzzle" and i say to myself "don't mind if I do" and did the whole thing

Do you guys think when bats see a vampire in their bat form they go “oh shit a vampire, gotta act normal”? Only to immediately realise“wait I am a bat with normal bat-blood and they go for human-blood,, what am I doing??”

Hey what's the most buckwild thing you've seen someone assume is totally normal? Like they have no idea that the thing is a profoundly bizarre thing to do, or they might even start arguing you about how everybody does it in private, but it's just something that nobody admits to doing/you're not supposed to do where people see you?

And I don't mean "beating your kids" or "digging your nose", those are extremely common things for people to assume "everyone does", I mean the "what the fuck do you mean you just assumed that everyone does that?" stuff.

By the time Damian enters the scene nobody is even surprised.

“Oh, so you slept with Talia al Ghul? Typical.”

Bruce Wayne is definitely that type of person to randomly drop the most insane lore about himself to his kids and acts like it's just a silly story in his life

"I once dated my ex's ex and they tried to kill me after-"

"You what and with who and they what"

Ah yesss,, how I wish people to perceive me, just the way I like it

He was as tall as he was tall, and his eyes were the color they were. To describe his hair one would say that he had some. His face had all the features you'd expect, and none of the ones you wouldn't. "There he is," people would often say of him, but only when he was there. And they were right.

I want you to remember:

The fascists hate you too and they just will pretend otherwise until after they've killed the rest of us, before they turn on you.
