Anonymous asked:

While working as a tour guide at a natural history museum recently we had a group of fourth graders visiting the endangered animals exhibit on their field trip. To start the discussion, I asked the group, "What is the rarest mammal in North America?"

after a thoughtful pause one little girl piped up, "I am the rarest mammal in North America. There is only one of me."

that kid is going places

you guys realize ‘reblog bait’ is a trigger tag for psychosis that can be set off by posts that say things like ‘reblog this or your dog dies’ ‘reblog this or you’ll never be happy again’ ‘reblog this to win a million dollars’ and not for posts like ‘hey rb this and put in the tags x thing’ right

okay since some people in the notes are confused, and to be fair I didn’t word this post very well, here’s some examples on how to tag things

reblog bait: reblog this and you’ll have good luck for 10 years

reblog game: reblog and put your favorite color in the tags

reblog bait: if you don’t reblog this, we can’t be mutuals

reblog game: reblog to give your mutuals a stuffed animal

reblog bait: you’re a terrible person if you don’t share this, I don’t care about your blogs aesthetic

reblog game: reblog and tell me if you’re right or left handed

basically, just think. is the post giving a threat, ultimatum or guilt trip? if so, it goes under reblog bait! a post saying to reblog but doesn’t have anything like the above would go under reblog game. hope this clears stuff up

About the AO3 "No Guest Comments for a while" warning

If you're not following any of AO3's social media accounts you might be in the dark as to what kind of "spam comments" have engendered this banner at the top of the site:

These spam comments have been posted about a great deal on the AO3 subreddit for the past couple of days. Initially they comprised a bunch of guest (logged out users) bot comments that insulted authors by suggesting they were using AI and not writing their own fics. Some examples, from the subreddit:

But it then escalated to outright graphic porn images and gifs being posted in comments, again by logged out 'Guest' accounts. Obviously, I'm not going to give examples of those, but between these two bot infestations, AO3 has clearly decided to act and has temporarily closed the ability to post comments for users who are not logged in with an AO3 account.

Unfortunately, this means that genuine readers who don't have an AO3 account won't be able to leave comments on fics that they enjoy.

If you are a genuine reader who doesn't yet have an AO3 account, I strongly suggest getting yourself on the waiting list for one. More and more AO3 authors are now locking their fics down to registered users only - either due to these bot comments or concerns about AI scraping their work - which means you're probably missing out on a lot of great stuff.

Hopefully guest commenting will be enabled again at some point soon, but I suggest not waiting until then. Get yourself on that list.

Wait times are going to be longer than usual at the moment, due to the current Wattpad purge [info on Fanlore | Wattpad subreddit thread], but if you're in line, then your invite will come through eventually.

Apparently, I have 9 invitations available, and I think I've used one of them ever, so if anyone out there wants to make an AO3 account, just DM me and I'll send you an invite. ✌️
