I'm not a popular enough blog that I will give you any reach
I am a minor, and most of my followers are too
It makes me feel extremely guilty
Seeing pictures of injuries or hospitals etc are triggering for me (which are in most intro posts for this sort of thing)
They are always worded in a way that makes me feel like I am a murderer if I don't donate
It makes me feel uncomfortable
I said I don't want them, and my boundaries should be respected
I can't tell what is a bot and what isn't
I get a lot of spam from this. It is disappointing to see 10 new asks in my inbox just to be the same ask for donations over and over
Please, just respect the fact that I have said this.
Edit: To all the people reblogging this, I'm sorry you have had to deal with this too. And yes, you can put this in your pinned post! Stay safe <3
Edit 2: I am pro Palestine and want to do everything I can to help but I'm not financially or mentally well enough to do much. I'm not in support of these people dying. Also, this post isn't just about Palestine. It's about ALL asks for donations. I'm not doing favouritism or racism. I just can't deal with it. Don't harass me for expressing boundaries.

copying @stargazeonafullmoonnight 's comment from this post here (with permission) bc i wanted to be able to reblog it so hopefully people can understand and we can try to keep the bloodymary tag from flooding the iron lung tag as much! (since the whole point of tags is finding people who would be interested in your post and we're establishing here that tagging bloodymary as iron lung is not doing that anymore, if someone wants bloodymary they just follow that tag)
Image Description: [[ 4 screenshots of one tumblr comment that says:
"I would like to see more Iron Lung only stuff only.
1) Bloodymary is it's own standing tag. Easy to type, easy to find. It CAN stand on its own. 2) It is now almost impossible to discuss Iron Lung only topics because you can't find anyone to engage. Either the Iron Lung only fans have fled the tag, or you can't find them.
I've lived this on another fandom, Polar Exploration (super niche, I know) which was flooded once by the Terror fandom. Polar Explorer has some AMAZING people doing historical researches, putting YEARS into deciphering century old letters, exploring rare artifact to share with everyone else. Real passion.
When The Terror (Great mini series!) came, all of that disappeared and the show took over. PE barely recovered.
It's like if you play chess in a club and one day all the tables are filled with bridge players. Maybe you won't go to that club anymore if you can't sit... There SHOULD be a way to have both in one space...
My proposal: if your intention is to speak solely of Bloodymary (i.e what you think a date night would look like, "I can't believe Ryan Gosling is kissing Markiplier", Click link for my fic!) then the Bloodymary tag should be used and only that tag (or, at least, BE USED so it can be blacklisted).
If your post is about Iron Lung and PHM both (i.e. subjects relevant to both such as the science of sci-fi, alternative food to be used on space station, the biology of Eridans vs that of the Eel, In-depth analysis of the common themes, the reason why the Hail Mary is a better spaceship than the SM-13 etc.) then Iron Lung AND PHM tag may be used.
If you are posting ONLY about Iron Lung subject, tag Iron Lung only.
If you are posting ONLY about PHM, tag PHM only.
Boom, now we have places for the bridge players, the chess players and even some checkers.
The stubbornness of people to not respect that small fandoms WILL fade if overtaken is kinda... why u do this? 'cause you like numbers in your notes?" ]]
(they also did note in a comment after that they found the last paragraph of this comment a little unnecessary in that it assumed ppl only tagged like this for the notes, which i agree with but also relate to the original sentiment)
What do you mean “chat” is now referring to ChatGPT and not twitch chat? What? What? What the fuck? No?
When I address chat I am speaking to a presumed Greek chorus of real human people shitposting on their lunch break, not a machine that devours lakes to covert electricity into slop.
quarterly reminder that if i reblog something ai-generated it is 110% and always an accident and for the love of god please tell me so i can delete it from my blog
