AO3 IS IN TROUBLE IF CALIFORNIAN AGE VERIFICATION LAW PASSES

AO3 IS IN TROUBLE IF CALIFORNIAN AGE VERIFICATION LAW PASSES

An upcoming Age verification bill centered in California will be voted on Monday-- And as always,instead of actually protecting kids, it will lead to more online censorship and privacy risks, as it will force websites hosting to verify their users age by sending their ID, your browser history would be linked to it. if you live California, call your reps and tell them to oppose the bill AB3080 as it highly unconstitutional.

They also deem LGBT content harmful to minors, as well as mentions of weapons and tobacco, putting them on the same level as NSFW content.

Since AO3 headquarters reside in California, much like Reddit, Twitter,Discord and Youtube (and others) who knows how bad the effects would be. Instead of just effecting Californians (even then its concerning.) the effects would be US or even worldwide. VPNs wont help.

Am I the only one who struggles with writing slice of life? Like, sometimes you have to add low-stakes shenanigans to let the story breathe, but for me this is the hardest part of writing.

I can write a hundred scenes with complex symbolism, heavy plot implications and character study, but I can't write them going to the store?

It could be that I'm socially illiterate and I genuinely have no idea how friends act around each other, but I have seen enough friendships in media to get an idea on how to do it. Does anyone else have that problem? And how do you guys write your slice of life chapters? Anything is appreciated!
