Yeah, I saw that on the AO3 Reddit a few weeks ago. The bots are hitting AO3 hard now, and the old safeguard of trusting an account is also being eradicated by people who feed the bots. ::sigh::

<3 your icon, fellow Lodge member! "When all else fails, play dead!"

Ditto on the sighing, plus a facepalm.

"When all else fails, play dead!" ♥

BION, I had a bad dream a few days ago in which the university decided to reinstate the Latin program (which TODS and I created from the ground up) - and assigned someone *else* to teach it. I went to the first class to observe and the guy was awful at it. He was having students give him Latin phrases commonly used in English and was writing them on the board in preparation for explaining them, so I raised my hand and said, "Quando omni flunkus moritati," which he dutifully began to write, and I said to myself, "heh heh heh."

A Red Green inspired dream!
