I Am Going To Say This As Gently As Possible, But People Do Not Get A Warning When Your Header Is Seizure-

I am going to say this as gently as possible, but people do not get a warning when your header is seizure- or migraine-inducing. We don't know that your blog has a flashing gif right at the top until we click on it for whatever reason. There is no way to be aware of that ahead of time, no way to filter or block or hide it, no way to prepare ourselves.

Like when you put something like that in a completely unavoidable part of your blog, the very first thing that people are going to see when they clock your URL, then you are actively choosing to put disabled people in danger. I know that's not anyone's intention, but this shit isn't a joke. I cannot stand up right now. The combination of eye strain and flashing gifs that people cover their blogs and carrds with have fucked me up so badly that I have been thrown into such a bad migraine attack that I am too weak to stand. There is a very good chance that I'm going to throw up.

So just like. Be aware of how those things are affecting people who visit your blog. Please.

really fucked up look cat

Since birth you could see a counter above people’s heads. It doesn’t count down to their death. It goes up and down randomly. You’re desperate to find out what it means.

Quick PSA, if you get one of those "Work scanned, AI use detected" comments on AO3, just mark them as spam.

Some moron apparently built a bot to annoy or prank hundreds of authors.

There is no scanning process, your work doesn't actually resemble AI writing, it's all bullshit. Mark the comment as spam (on AO3, not the email notification you got about the comment!) and don't let it get to you.

i am shrunken down and brought to the gnome world and when i attempt to assimilate to their culture I use an acorn cap as a hat and they all laugh cheerfully at my silly mistake of wearing what they use as a bowl like a cap and though this is a transgression that would have humiliated me in my human life I am instead laughing alongside them at my humorous misunderstanding
