The Help Desk
You’ve fallen through the door somehow. As you pick yourself up, you find yourself at a point in Tumblr’s space where a help desk resides, operated by figures you probably don’t know. But with expansive access to the multiverse… what else could they be doing? And what will they do with the backlog before this post? Either way… this hub post and my introduction was almost 4 years overdue. Whether you’re here for memes, you’re a friend or mutual of mine, or even a roleplayer I followed, read the whole post. It’s got everything you should know about me.
Heya! I’m DerpyToad, but you can also call me Meringue, Polaris, and Cupcake. Welcome to my main blog, a place where I like things on behalf of my other blogs and post about all kinds of things that catch my interest. And while I may be a guy who’s 25, I just have some things I’d like to address beneath the break.
If you saw me follow you out of nowhere, check the blogrolls at the bottom of this post to see if you followed (or want to follow) any of my sideblogs. There’s a really good chance I followed you for one of them, but this is THE main blog that I use to follow other blogs on behalf of them.
No mature (you know exactly what I’m talking about) content will be showcased on this blog or my side blogs. I try to keep it clean here.
Politics are a touchy subject for everyone. I’d rather not interact with such posts here if I can help it, so the only political thing I will ever really emphasize here is that you should vote.
I like stuff and follow from this blog since it’s my main. Refer to my side blog lists below if you followed one of those and I followed you back.
There’s lore that I may post behind this blog that’s relevant to my other blogs, and those blogs also have lore. Most of the other posts are random chaos, rambling, and me reblogging stuff.
Don’t steal my work. If I find out you did, that’s a block/report. If you like it, reblog/link it instead!
If you wanna add me on some of the mobile games I play or discuss guilds, DM me for details and discussion. Discord falls under the same umbrella.
If you have something you’d like to address with me for any reason, don’t hesitate to tell me, ask me, or message me in private. I’d rather get it resolved here and now than put it off and let feelings of self-guilt fester.
Donation asks and similar ping replies will be deleted when they’re still in the inbox regardless of verification status, which may result in a block, and in you being reported for spam. This is for personal protection against scams, and because I have nothing to donate.
I jest around here as a means of escape from the hustle of life, but when I want to be serious here, I WILL say that I’m being serious.
Accounts that appear to be bots may be blocked or reported at my discretion. Please change SOMETHING on your blog from its default (icon, name, description, show your likes/follows) so I know there’s someone behind this account besides spammy coding.
Possible face claims for random blog mod posting include Lakitu, Aya Shameimaru, Suwako Moriya, Toad, a random realistic crow or raven, Alice Margatroid, and Milky Way Cookie, although it’s not limited to these options. I just post whatever icon I want to match the mood if I do.
