hi everyone!! this is a really difficult decision for me to make, because I believe access to art and writing is important at all levels of community, and it should never be locked behind account restrictions and regulations, and I also understand I have several readers who are unable to have ao3 accounts.
with that being said, in light of the absolutely massive and completely unforgivable ai scrape that occurred on ao3, which stole all of my works, I will be moving forward to archive locking all of my fics. it's not a decision that I make lightly, and I've spent a lot of time since the scrape thinking about it. I never wanted to be put in this position, and if it was up to me, my fics would always be open for everyone.
"everyone" does not include the theft of my time, effort, or creative ideas. it does not include the violation of taking my works to feed a system I do not and cannot agree with. as someone who has been accused of using ai in their college/uni papers because of my writing, it is the ultimate offense for my writing to then be stolen the way it has been.
I'm hopeful for ao3 to take action in the future to guard the rights of authors and artists on their site, and I feel better knowing that their lawyers are already on it. unfortunately, until there's a better solution, my fics will be archive locked for the foreseeable future.
in case it wasn't clear, let me lay it out as explicitly as possible: I do not consent to using my writing or works to feed to ai. I do not agree with using ai in any capacity. knowing that my works were in the scrape is beyond infuriating, and to the person who thought it was okay in any capacity to preform that scrape: go fuck yourself, and I sincerely hope that the authors curse hits you in every form imaginable.

The most insane tumblr bloggers are often the most gorgeous people you've seen in your life like you look like THAT and you're posting about random sports white man number 28593818 instead of being a model ????

i wish people didn't try to filter geto's decision through a western lens because they're forgetting a huge part of the puzzle and it's the fact that sorcerers are oppressed by non-sorceres in the world of jujutsu kaisen. geto’s whole thing is "there's so few of us and yet we work ourselves to death for your peace of mind, while you remain ungrateful".
it's all more equivalent to health care workers trying to treat a virus. which also aligns thematically with the subject of labour across the series (jujutsu sorcerers being spread thin to the detriment of inexperienced workers, a job you value vs a job that compensates but drains you of your spirit, the myth of meritocracy) .
which is why controlling the output of cursed energy should be seen as the equivalent of being born with or developing an immunity to a disease. this is why a "culling" sounds possible to geto to begin with— people being pushed to adapt or die in their lifetime to prevent future outbreaks, like one would with a virus. strongly differing to kenjaku, because they essentially yearn for this disease to spread out of morbid curiosity (while geto wants the work to end):
geto is a character you are meant to see yourself in. as, in all likelihood, a laborer yourself or someone that will become one. his story is that of exploitation at the hands of a system that only cares for results. leading to isolation in hopes of achieving high productivity.
tangentially, i think a subject that is often ignored in these discussions is the financial incentive to take on more and more work onto your plate too. mei mei is perhaps the clearest example of this, no explanation needed. nobara, a second, when she explictly tells us sorcerery work is the only way a small town girl like her can make it in the big city. megumi, a third, when we learn the money the school gave him helped keep him and his sister tsumiki afloat.
while gege does not delve into geto's past, we can safely speculate part of the reason geto keeps working day after day, after day— despite his wavering convictions is because there is something that encourages him to do so. financial stability would not be an odd motivater. after all, why do we push ourselves everyday to work jobs that no longer add anything meaningful to our lives? geto is the type of character that forces us to examine such things.
as an aside, when he first dons the robes of a cult leader, money is at the forefront of his concerns. if it wasn't obvious before, gege tells you again— choosing not to be a sorcerer, implies a serious loss of income.
i think, all in all, geto's spiral does not hinge on the fact that he was secretly evil the entire time. it lies in disillusionment of a system that only seeks to preserve itself. note that this is why yuki works outside of it. no doubt her experiences as a former star plasma vessel informed her reasoning. it's also why gojo decides to become a teacher and change the institution from within, wielding his privilege as a shield over others.
wait my question is how many of us didn’t grow up with f1 and didn’t get into it thanks to drive to survive… put in the tags where you’re from and what year you started watching and maybe why/how you started watching

Your fic ID is the number that shows up in your URL.
Hello! Ao3 has been part of an unauthorized data scrape for GenAI purposes. If your fic has an ID number between 1 and 63200000, it may be a part of the data set and you can file a DMCA copyright infringement notice on the American sites it was uploaded to. Each of you will need to request a takedown.
Here’s a link to the information.
It is a reddit link, but it has the other links you’ll need in one place.

It's very easy to select the text of a fic and copy-paste it on Ao3, right?
Well, we can stop people (and AI) from doing this by adding a skin to our fics!
I just did it with all my fics and it works.
How to do it, step by step⬇️
1) Log in. Click 'Skins' in the menu, at the left. Then click 'My Work Skins' and after doing this, click 'Create Work Skins' at the top right.
2) Write a title for your skin (anything you want, it doesn't matter). Then in the large text box, write this:
#workskin * {
user-select: none !important;
-webkit-user-select: none;
-moz-user-select: none;
-ms-user-select: none;
}
This is what you should see:
3) Click 'Submit'. Your skin has been created, and now you have to add it to all your works.
4) Click 'Works'. Then click 'Edit Works' at the top right.
5) Click 'All' to select all your works. Scroll down and click 'Edit'.
6) Scroll down until you see 'Select Work Skin' and select the one you just created.
7) Click 'Update All Works'.
Now, people can't select the text of your fics and copy it😊
PS: I also recommend changing the visibility of your fics to 'Only Show to Registered Users'. You'll lose your anon readers, but it will protect your works a bit more against AI scrappers
@itsillyakuryakin this post is proof that I am hilarious

sometimes i wish i could tell other women that you can just stop removing your body hair and in many cases the consequences will be way less severe than u expect. you can go to the beach with all your leg hair intact and nobody will stop you or say a thing. you can stop waxing your upper lip and people won’t stare at it the way u might be bracing yourself for. you can quit plucking your brows and eventually they will grow back into themselves and no one will even notice. like for sure women are punished for not participating in beauty rituals but i also feel like so much of it is like The Panopticon sometimes where you just convince yourself that if u stop that kind of gendered upkeep everyone will be mad and stop talking to u forever when in reality you just keep existing and nothing remarkable happens. it’s not always easy but you can kind of just stop for real
here you go professor. several pages of home brewed bullshit. as opposed to the chatgpt-brewed bullshit you're used to these days. i hope u enjoy it i worked very hard on it ❤️
no switch options, you have to choose
I think Geto went a bit overboard....
Satoru calls Suguru in every possible way, he has tried all the options from wife/husband/kitten/bunny and so on, but in every possible way prevents Suguru from calling him anything other than "Satoru". One day Suguru asks him about it and Satoru simply replies:
"You pronounce my name in a special way, I don't want to lose it. You pronounce it not rudely, not sharply, not irritably, even when you are angry on me. The way you call me already makes me melt, Suguru".
Suguru blushes and pushes him, calling him an idiot. And Satoru only shrinks back, answering that he is his one and only idiot.
Just my thoughts hehehe :"D
