riordanverse characters as taylor swift songs but it’s who comes to my head first and there’s no reason to like most of these

nico: antihero (literally just all of midnights tbh), eyes open

will: safe and sound, jump then fall, stay stay stay (that one part in tsats)

in my mind wills mom is, taylor swift (all I could think about while reading tsats)

annabeth: if this was a movie (?) mastermind, would’ve could’ve should’ve, seven (LITERALLY HER SONG????)

percy: the great war, this is why we can’t have nice things

magnus: shake it off (no clue, don’t ask), blank space (AGAIN I DONT KNOW)

jason: august (bro just trust me)

bianca: bigger than the whole sky (UAGHHHH)

piper: getaway car (LMAO)

alex: gorgeous (bro just trust me), ME! (PLEASE ITS MOSTLY A JOKE)

leo: red (yeah), cowboy like me (yeehaw)

hazel: snow on the beach (idk makes me think of her), marjorie (what died didnt stay dead?!?!)

frank: the archer (OK LISTEN)

i mean this in the like... nicest way possible, but there is no way to post your writing and/or art on the internet without running the very high risk of it getting scraped, whether you post it on tumblr, pillowfort, or ao3. sites being 'anti ai' does not mean your art cannot be scraped. it is simply almost impossible to prevent, much less guarantee that. I'm not saying this to be a pessimist or to stop people from being rightfully pissed about this. it sucks. massively so! but if the idea does in fact bother you that much, you should know that moving sites won't fix the issue. ao3, as far as we know, has been scraped/is getting scraped. you can set your fics so that only logged in users can access them, but it only makes scraping one step more difficult, and by no means impossible and the otw has stated this clearly.

which, again, this sucks! i don't have a great solution either!! but tumblr is relatively honest, at least, when it tells you that it cannot prevent, only discourage it. ao3 said the same thing. any site promising you otherwise is, to the best of my knowledge, lying to you.

i say in my rules that i won't water puck down to make him seem weaker during RPs ....................... & then i proceed to water him down to make him seem weaker during RPs LOL.

i know it's not very fun to write with the guy who always wins bc he's good at everything (ok not everything just most things) & incredibly strong so i always feel bad abt it. i want ppl to have fun interacting with him! but like, The Point of his character is that he's stupidly powerful. i gave him a ridiculously high STR stat for a reason. literally the only thing stopping him from killing every person in the world is his big beautiful heart. and also iago. listen. i have themes & motifs for him. please can anyone hear me. listennnnnnnn

I dont want to be rude, but can you please explain more about how Max is infantilozed? Like do you mean by the fandom or are there other things? Just curious seriously.

oh it’s definitely a fandom thing more than anything,, if i could i would give specific examples of things i’ve seen people say about max— but unfortunately the internet is far too large and i am far too tired to do that.

but in a general sense, i would say max is most commonly infantilized by how some people treat amberpricefield as chloe and rachel being the cool, mature, badass ones and have max be the shy, blushing-nonstop, cant say the word sex, stuttering mess.

it’s definitely not That obvious all the time, but most of the time it’s still pretty noticeable— at least to me. i’m sure you could see it eventually if you scroll long enough in the amberpricefield tag.

also, this might be a different thing, but another way max gets infantilized is how people really like to treat max as if she can do nothing wrong ever. for example, the people who got upset at DontNod making max being a part of the vortex club in the alt timeline— only getting mad because they think max is too sweet/kind/anxious/etc for that kind of enviroment, as if (and i say this with love in my heart) max has never been an asshole or a little bitch (but thats a whole other post i could make). point is! it’s infantilizing to think a character can do no wrong ever, and thats how people treat max a lot of the times.

this is genuinely a really good question— i just have zero real idea how to answer it other than what i said,, it’s just something you see a lot when youre in the fandom for a while.

"i mess up things and then i don't have the energy to fix them up" yes brain true sentence but no brain the appropriate response is NOT "therefore i should kill myself (and here's how)"

ppl, especially low/no-empathy ppl, who talk to ableist anti-pd cluster b abuse believers with the upmost patience & understanding are so crazy (/pos) for that because what

how do y'all sit there and level w/ them just. so much.

i know it's kind of necessary bcs even if they don't listen to us anyways, they're only gonna think we're 10× worse if we don't walk them through the spiel w/ hands held (which we're not even owed to do anyways) but like i can hardly see myself doing it

so like

respect

I can't think of anything that could kill a generative ai system faster than letting it pull from blogs on here, its going to be fed so many erroneous callouts and pointless discourse posts that its gonna generate a way to speedrun offing itself

[baffledapple]

once again i am being subjected to "educational courses on generative AI" (lengthy advertisements that the higher ups want us to watch so they can say that we are trained in AI)

Coincidentally "ohh doggy!" Is the same thing that comes to mind spotting you out in the wild of my dashboard

Don't have any fucking doggy reaction pics only kitty cat and horsey so have this crude edit. Wags my tail at this ^_^ correct reaction too. If you catch me around you gotta do a Tommy Wiseau and hit me with the oh hi doggy!. It's the morally correct choice.
