Name/Alias: Blue Favorite color(s): Hmmmmm... Current video game(s) you're playing: Hollow Knight Current book you're reading: Toumei Otoko to Ningen Onna: Sonouchi Fuufu ni Naru Futari Favorite food: Italian Favorite quote: "ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT?" BREAKS THROUGH THE WALL Biggest fear (make it a joke): Sorry my overthinking and empathetic observations made you uncomfortable what if we make animal noises instead? Greatest hope for 2026: Preserve, improve, adapt, overcome.

I think maybe the first part of keeping others safe and making them feel safe is recognizing the ways in which you are capable of harming them, especially without even realizing it
If you imagine yourself as an innocent and pure thing incapable of harming anyone, I'm not sure I'll ever feel safe around you. Sorry. Because when you define your entire personality in being harmless, you will respond poorly when you do, inevitably, cause harm.

Couch co-op or online?

Uhhh online? I think has occurred much more often.
Superhero team as a metaphor for online friendship
I've known you for years, but don't know your name. I trust you with my biggest fears, but you'll never even know how I look. I wish I could take you to my favourite coffee shop or park, but I'll never be able. If something were to happen to you I would never know. You are one of most important people in my life, I wish I could introduce you to others
The things that we do together are high-stakes, but also so absurd that we will never be able to explain it to anyone else. We have our own special way of communicating through symbols and codes that is perfectly adapted to our alternate reality lifestyle. The person I know you as may be widely different from the person you are in Real Life, and we could debate forever which is "the real you". We may have known each other for years without any information about each other's life. I wouldn't recognize you if we met, but chances are that our brains would sync either way.
THEY'RE REVERSING IT
update genuinely so doodoo ass. if you reblog from ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE ORIGINAL POST, this includes reblogs without additions, INCLUDING SELF-REBLOGS, IT DOESN'T ADD TO THE TOTAL REBLOG COUNT. FOR SOME REASON. AND YOU CAN'T EVEN VIEW THE ONES WITH TAGS UNDER THE REBLOG TAB ANYMORE WHICH IS LIKE HALF THE FUN OF TUMBLR!!!!
literally the only way to see the true reblog count atm is loading all reblogs in the reblog graph which is the most inconvenient shit ever. roll it back, tumblr, good lord. I'm seeing posts that in reality have like 6k reblogs only visibly having like 100 because of this, that's a SEVERE cutdown of notes
I need to like make a chart to explain what I'm saying like. I am straight up not even talking about reblogs with comment being their own posts and stealing notes from op. I am talking about bare reblogs with no comments. because somehow these are affected even though they shouldn't be.
every reblog in the chart I presented is a bare, no comment reblog. and yes, reblogging from ANY of the ones in green including the self-reblog doesn't add to the total reblog count. only reblogging DIRECTLY from the ORIGINAL POST does. for some reason.
the real number of reblogs in this case would be 8. the SHOWN, VISIBLE number on the post itself would be 4. and you would only be able to see the tags of the green reblogs in the reblog tab, you would NOT be able to see the tags of the ones in red. for some reason. literally the only way you can access them is through the reblog graph.
Reblogs in a chain now get their own notes
The reblog chain is one of the things that makes Tumblr unlike anywhere else. All the notes on reblogs are attributed to the original post, no matter which branch people actually liked or reblogged. We want to keep encouraging conversations, and give contributors the recognition they deserve.
Soon, you'll be able to like, reblog, or reply to any part of a reblog chain, and that note will go to that reblog's author. Each reblog will have its own counts, instead of one aggregated number from every version of the post. And yes, you’ll be able to like multiple posts in one chain.
If a reblog doesn't add anything, the love flows up to the last person in the chain who did. Your post doesn't lose notes just because people spread it quietly.
Past notes will stay on the original post — we're only changing what happens from here on out. Retroactively re-attributing all of them would be... a lot.
This is just the beginning. More changes are coming as we keep building this out – stay tuned!
This is going to be horrible for creators like artists and writers. And the UI is even more cluttered. Do not do this. Please roll it back.

i am and i told you that information in discord
legend tells of a mysterious being called “nuance” that allows multiple things to be true at the same time. some say you can still hear its voice whispering in the trees
"i can't do this without you (romantic)" of course. but also "i can't do this without you (platonic)" and "i can't do this without you (mentee to mentor)". for that matter "i can't do this without you (mentor to mentee)". nor can we forget "I can't do this without you (siblings)" and "i can't do this without you (work husband)". "I can't do this without you (novice to idol)" and "I can't do this without you (parent teaching a child)" and "I can't do this without you (a stranger on the street)". "I can't do this without you (we're in this together)" and "I can't do this without you (you make this worth it)" and "I can't do this without you (you give me hope)". simply so
got told at lunch "you feel like Tumblr Incarnate" and i had to tell them i've been here for 13 years and counting. i was here three years before dashcon happened. i saw the mishapocalypse. i survived the gigapause. i've been here longer than the shoelaces post. i've been here since it was hipsters versus fandom and i played both sides extensively by overdoing the sepia filters on everything and making my own flashing galaxy gif edits for my fandom posts. i'm every tumblr. it's all in me
Oh ancient one what wisdom do you hold?
99% of callout posts are bullshit and just petty personal drama someone is escalating to get even on a grudge. do not engage with these, do not freelance as a cop
DNIs do not work. accept this. internalize that people you don't like will see your posts and engage with them. this is unavoidable and the sooner you make peace with it the freer your mind will be. block the freaks and don't sweat the small stuff
building a tight knit circle of fellow weirdos who vibe with your particular quirks and taste is infinitely more rewarding and sustainable than chasing the biggest numbers
don't respond to bad-faith arguments or bad takes; just block people, blacklist tags, filter post content, and move on. don't feed the trolls (or the bigots)
don't hate-follow
don't tag your hate (ex. if you're posting about how much you hate a ship, don't tag it as that ship, etc.)
don't feel obligated to keep following someone who posts stuff that upsets/depresses/angers/bores you just because you know them really well, or because you're mutuals, or because you used to like what they post. following is nothing personal and neither is unfollowing
op doesn't know you; avoid parasocial relationships
don't pick fights or reblog posts just to disagree/argue
spread joy and positivity in your circles
