I have been reading a bit on the OTW elections and the whole Tiffany G thing, but most of all, I've been reading comments from people supporting Tiffany saying that she just wants to clear AO3 from all the CP (child pornography) content and I don't know who needs to hear this but:
If someone comes to a predominantly QUEER space (like AO3) and tells you that censorship is necessary to eradicate CP... it's not actually CP they want to eradicate...
I've seen this type of discourse about Pride and about queer literature and queer movies and queer communities. It's a tried and true technique of the right and conservative movements.
First, they say there is a DANGER to the community through CP and they conflate the actual threat of CP in the community (we all know someone who thinks that writing a love story between two characters who are 16 is CP...), and make you believe that censorship is the only way to PROTECT THE CHILDREN. And since most people are (rightly) mind-bogled at having to explain that of course they don't support CP content, they bow down and accept the censorship for the greater good, without anyone actually trying to have a conversation about what qualifies as CP (which needs to, you know, actually involve real children and not fictional characters who are 17 and losing their virginity with their crush in a Mature-rated story about high school football and first love based on the author's own experience of losing their virginity at 17 to their crush in high school).
Then, they tell you that there are other forms of DISTURBING CONTENT, and what they really mean is porn that THEY find disturbing, for ex, (and I kid you not, I have seen comments like that) porn featuring disabled characters, which they consider to encourage the exploitation of vulnerable individuals, or BDSM porn (which supposedly encourages violence and lack of consent), or rough p*rn, or any kind of porn that isn't two (preferably white and skinny) able-bodied people doing it missionary style while lovingly gazing in each other's eyes. SO TO PROTECT VIEWERS, that needs to be banned as well.
And then, they tell you that even that sanitized version of porn is still porn and that people under 18 or under 21 or under whatever age they consider too young to view anything sexual regardless of the fact that not all countries have the same law about the age of maturity, should be free to surf the site without having to *gasp* filter out properly tagged works. So TO PROTECT THE CHILDREN, every explicit content is censored.
And then finally, when all that is left is a sanitized, white-washed, ableist, puritan type of content featuring General-Audience approved gay works of two nice men or two nice women holding hands and chastely kissing each other on the lips... Well guess what? :) CHILDREN SHOULD NOT BE EXPOSED TO QUEER CONTENT SO WE NEED TO BAN THAT AS WELL, and since we've basically done purge after purge before and there are still a handful of people on the website, well surely they won't mind/care anymore, will they?
It's not just a slippery slope, it's something that has been done time and again, and that is why censorship on AO3 will never, never have a positive outcome.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
Population of Two
It's weird, not having you around.
It's unclear whether they went to completely different universities or same one but different majors, but certainly they weren't spending like 12 hrs straight side by side any more.
But I mean, they probably still found time to squeeze each other in
HAPPY TSUKKI DAY
(other wise known as I didn't have time to draw something for him so i had to resurface an old sketch and finish it off as quickly as my stubby little fingers allow)
i see a lot of mild angst fics about yamaguchi getting fed up with / upset with tsukki because he feels like his affection isnt reciprocated or like tsukki doesnt express his affection enough BUT i'd like to suggest that not everyone requires constant gushy affection to know / think they are loved and yamaguchi in all his sweetheartedness is actually incredibly independant and one of his favourite things about tsukishima is that if he doesnt text him for two days he has zero concern and takes no offence. additionally, yamaguchi is not super interested in drawing attention to himself and LOVES that tsukki does not require him to verbalize his affection very often because he finds it embarassing.
"yamaguchi aren't you upset at all that tsukki proposed to you in such a lame and uninspired way? literally just at home, not even a fancy date?"
yamaguchi, who had an anxiety attack the last time he had to ask a waiter to correct his order: "I think if tsukki had tried to propose in public I would have killed myself."

“You think our meeting was fate, Yamaguchi?”
Yamaguchi hums, takes another sip of his beer. It must be lukewarm by now, but he doesn’t seem to mind. “You don’t?”
Kei shrugs. “I don’t believe in fate. I moved to Sendai, but I could’ve moved anywhere else in the world.” Not quite, but Yamaguchi doesn’t need to know that.
“Exactly,” Yamaguchi smiles, cheeks red. It’s half the alcohol and half his excitement. “You could be anywhere, but you’re here, with me.”
