CW: Shipcourse, discussion of new shipping culture, antis, tadc shipcourse, bunnydoll, shipcest (implied/argued)
This is so funny to me, but it also shows the ass-backwards way shipping culture has gone very clearly:
• Creators are expected to police their fandoms, and if they don't, they're in support of [x taboo].
• Ships are something that can make or break a reputation.
• Bullying (harassment) is not only allowed, but expected, and even encouraged.
• Creators are expected to make their art a certain way to avoid bullying (harassment) instead of the fandom being civil.
• If a creator doesn't do any of these things, they're intentionally hurting the fandom.
What a shitshow.

My thoughts on how to post without spoiling others (repost, previously posted to my other account).
This was written mainly for a platform that doesn’t have a built-in system that lets you hide part of your post with a description of the content, so that others can easily decide if they want to proceed or not. So, on Mastodon, Tumblr, Pillowfort etc. we don’t even need to rely on muting any words, as long as CW or “Read more” are used in the post.

So it looks like OpenAI has been scraping fanwork website AO3. That's a lot of dodgy IP, NSFW content to be getting its claws into.
Wow, wow, wow.
