      That first one is probably taken directly from TV Tropes. It doesn't mean "good racism", if that's what you're thinking (I thought that was what it was at first, too, lol). "Fantastic" in this case means "fanciful" - for example, elves vs. dwarves or dogs vs. cats.

      Zatana (In Justice League comic) revealed that it was her who mind-manipulated catwoman into becoming good. That's cannon.

    My all time favourite AO3 tag is Accidental Baby Acquisition. Like, the fact that that specific trope is so common that it has it's own tag is just downright hilarious to me

    my personal faves but they're ways i tagged fics:
    "xiangling needs to stop eating wild mushrooms"
    "everyone questions venti's sanity"
    "i have plans", "they're very vague but they exist"
    "this wasn't meant to be this angsty", "i just couldn't help myself", "i'm so sorry"
    and
    "i basically grabbed my issues", "and my comfort ship", "and ran with it", "if you know me irl im okay"

    Some of my favorite AO3 tags:
    “Dead Dove but with puns”
    “does it count as a dysfunctional relationship if it works shockingly well for them?”
    “So much pining you could hang it up and call it an air freshener”
    “is there a kink for just... carrying people around? i might have it”
    “Canon Slipped In The Shower And I Am The Grieving Widow With An Inheritance”
    “I’m not sure how the vacuum of space works and at this point I’m too afraid to ask”

It's a general trigger/squick warning reminding people they're responsible for what they choose to read.
