I hate people. My house got egged (I didn't even know people still did that šŸ’€) and we have literally no idea who did it, and only a possible reason why, and our cameras haven't shown us anything helpful. Like what even do I do in this situation. People suck

hey guys friendly reminder from your fave Canadian that esk*mo is a slur so please don’t use it!

I see it usually in the context of ā€œesk*mo kissesā€ which may pop up when people talk about their ships and their headcanon, but it means ā€œsnow eatersā€ in cree and is a slur against Inuit people so please just don’t use it!

and I would appreciate if u reblogged this because people outside Canada don’t seem to know this for the most part

Oh you were already informed of this? Thank goodness ^^ I'd also sent a screenshot of the imposter in an ask a few days ago.

A gross sbcl shipper seems to be trying to copy you:

A Gross Sbcl Shipper Seems To Be Trying To Copy You:

Hello, thank you so much. A mutual of mine already contacted me about it, but I'm so grateful that you also took your time to warn me about them. I've already contacted them privately with my concerns, but it's been over 24 hours and they have been dead silent, so I'm going to make this public.

This isn't my alt account nor do I know this person. I disagree strongly with the content they reblog and I am deeply uncomfortable (and still confused) by their choice to copy me.

There are ways to recognise me however:

-my username! I do not have any underscores or anything else in my name. Plain old "Imviotrash"

-my caption does not contain blatant spelling errors

-they change their username quite often, so be vigilant. I don't do that.

-the content I post differs strongly from them

So far they have done nothing but impersonate me and reblogging some unsavoury content, I hope this can still be resolved peacefully.

Chapter One:Ā The Tragedy of Tom Riddle

image

June, 1943

The cry of the jackal was high and mournful as it regarded the lone boy standing in the courtyard. Smoke trailed from the fingers of his left hand.

Tom lifted the lit cigarette to his mouth, closed his eyes, and winced. The sound was penetrating. He exhaled bitter smoke, looking around surreptitiously. The last thing he needed was Mulciber or Avery, or worse yet, a professor, coming around the corner.

He did not relish the thought of having to explain a nicotine addiction at this present moment (or any moment at all), because that would require explaining the Blitz, too, and Merlin knows these morons were oblivious to the world war that was currently going on. Pureblood society wouldn’t stoop to concerning itself with Muggle politics even if the bombs were exploding over the heads of the entire Sacred Twenty-Eight.

On second thought, he’d quite like to see a bomb exploding over the idiots’ heads.

At any rate, he had to be careful. Especially considering what he was intending to do later today. He already had an inordinate amount of detentions with Dumbledore — Professor of Transfiguration and the only person Tom considered a serious threat to his plans — as it were, and unfortunately only a finite amount of patience.Ā 

Undoubtedly, this week’s session would involve advice on how to make friends, and questions as to why he liked to spend so much time alone.

He had to tutor that ditzy Gryffindor girl again today after he finished that extra assignment for Slughorn, and then he had patrol duty tonight with that irritating Ravenclaw git he’d been paired with — oh, fuck it all.

That and the essay for Merrythought — how could he have forgotten? He had an eighty-inch final paper due in Defense Against the Dark Arts on Friday, and he hadn’t even started it yet.

Even assuming he got through this behemoth of a week and everything went smoothly with the Horcrux, there were still his O.W.L. exams to worry about...

What prev and op said, but also the first comments!! It's really hard to find what you're looking for in this fandom especially if you're an f/f reader. Please don't tag ships if they appear one single time in your story.

There is an issue in this community with misstagged fics on AO3, specifically in the FxF tags. I don't know if it's going to reach the actual people or not but I'm still going to put this here:

A lot of MxM and FxM are tagging FxF ships in the main relationship category despite the ship itself only being written in the background.

Which is a problem because when you go into your ship tag to find fics of your ship, a ridiculous amount of them are off topic. And while yes you can lower that amount significantly by filtering and tag exclusion, AO3 has a built in feature that is made to avoid this.

I am going to use the Shadowzel tag for that because it's the most popular FxF ship on there and it's also one of the most misstagged rn. As of right now, there is 607 fics in the Shadowzel tag without filter. If you restrict the search to only include FxF, you are down to 397 fics. That is more than a third gone!

And it gets rid of some shadowzel content as well, so it's either you filter that out or you have to scroll through a tag where 1 out of 3 fics are about Astarion, Gale, Halsin, etc instead of the ship you looked up.

If your fic, let's take for example a Tav x Astarion, has either consistent mention of Shadowheart x Lae'zel, the most popular wlw ship, or has them in the background as support characters, or even just mentions them as a funny little wink and you want to make sure your readers know they are in here, you do not use the relationship tag! You go down to the additional tags and add "Minor Lae'zel/Shadowheart (Baldur's Gate)".

Unless the pairing you are tagging is the main focus or have a significant role and spotlight on them, you should not use the relationship tag! It clogs the feed for no reason, AO3 is not a website where you have to advertise your posts to the most tags possible.

Adding a visual for clarity:
