if you're just looking for it snew, it's right here. otherwise, tag system below!
you don't have to read this entire post, it's long as hell. that being said, my tags are below:
#the geek speaks - my original posts tag. if you'll recall, my name is geek
#nutdealer posting - posts about or relating to undertale or deltarune—usually deltarune—cuz my brain decided it wants to fixate on those.
#owlposting - owl house tag. my favorite's hunter, who coulda guessed
#the clown car - tadc tag. my favorite's jax, who coulda guessed
#my rock collection :) - im into steven universe again i guess
#my Other rock collection :] - i've been indoctrinated into project hail mary. grace to me is like the paper towel you put under a burrito when you put it in the microwave and when you take it out it's kind of soggy and wet. he's that
#cephaloposting - I just HAAAD to go out and learn splatoon lore and now I'm in fairly deep. tag works the same as nutdealer posting, pearlina is adorable, I'm team Callie, Order and Future, and if Frye doesn't get another win before the game stops having splatfests I'm gonna be pissed.
If a tag is prefaced by ←, that means all the previous tags are from the prev reblog, and all tags following it are mine. I may on occasion forgo the previous tags altogether, and if so, just hit previous reblog. If there are two, prev also uses this system.
#reblog - my reblogs. used in conjunction with other tags (now defunct)
#existenceunrelateds - posts not directly related to any of the fandom tags (now defunct)
#carbohydrate before you carbodiedrate - my new mutual/shenanigannery tag. don't ask. I'll almost definitely forget this a ton, so a general rule is if I'm reblogging to talk to mutuals or other people a lot within a short period of time, it'll be there. or if i'm replying repeatedly in the tags. or if spectator brings up bread again. (now defunct)
#negative - this one's been in effect for some time, but it was infrequent enough that I didn't think of adding it. This is not necessarily ANY negative post, more posts that could seriously affect someone reading them. Because of this, a good chunk of Palestine-related posts are tagged with it. Not all of them, though, only the emotionally devastating ones.
#personal shit - Personal shit. Usually doesn't apply to the occasional vaguepost or question, more complaining about situations happening in real life or asking for advice.
#geek figuring stuff out - I'm still pretty young. I won't tell you how young (old enough that it shouldn't really matter), but young enough that I don't know myself all too well. This tag may contain Gender Confusion, Romance Confusion (Or Lack Thereof), Sexuality Confusion (Or Lack Thereof (??)), Inability To Visualize Confusion (See: Aphantasia), and Medical Confusion (Dehydration, Malnourishment, and More!). Additionally, this is where most nsfw content will go, if it's not body positivity or sex ed. Or me reblogging thirst traps for my lesbian followers.
#existence is unhealthily obsessed with queso - I rate queso for some reason. Mostly going to be chains within just Florida, or southeastern USA.
alright so I'm entrenched in undertale and deltarune, which means I also tend to get homestuck content. I have no idea what the fuck homestuck is about but I know a lot of people love it and a lot of people hate it, so I jokingly tag a lot of posts relating to homestuck with #cw homestuck. this is a joke and not intending to belittle any homestuck fans- I'm an undertale fan, I can hardly judge.
#painposting - I hurt a lot. might be lyme disease's fault. this encompasses all of the original posts I make relating to complaining about pain or general sensory horribleness. cws include medical bullshit, specifically (as of recent) pills and needles, as my veins don't like to cooperate so there's stuff to say
⭐️ ←pre-k star sticker - a new tag of mine inspired by @seven-oh-four's shiny pile tag. contains original posts of mine i think are particularly good and deserving of a little star sticker.
speaking of, any time I'm tagging posts with warning, I'll usually do two to four variations on #cw [xyz thing here]. I use cw (content warning) much more often than tw (trigger warning), since it convers any reason someone might not want to see certain content. make sure if you've blocked the tw version of a tag, block the cw version as well. i try to tag any original posts containing flashing lights/eyestrain/anything like that. if i'm missing something, tell me!
information you may desire about my blog: I mostly reblog posts but will post original things occasionally. original things may be personal to me, about fandoms, about the world, art, etc. content warnings include the following (these are not the only topics but they are ones that will come up):
politics and current events (im USAmerican, so mainly USAmerican politics, though i will signal boost goings on in other countries. i generally don't tag political reblogs so if you worry you prolly shouldn't follow.)
going along with this, world injustices (sexism, queerphobia of all forms, racism, classism, ableism's a big one, etc.)
drama unrelated to politics, some fandom. i try to avoid this but sometimes i get mad
i talk about potentially traumatic events that happened to me very casually sometimes, even in tags
i am now—not diagnosed with, but my therapist is running with an assumed diagnosis of—c-ptsd. so that will come up.
i use all caps sometimes
i post about animals on occasion, particularly cats
uhhhh I'll come back to this later
If I have a link or a video or something and I specify it's not a jumpscare or rickroll or something, I'm not lying, please trust me.
Regarding accessibility and related things, I try to alt any image I post that is more than like. a cat photo for just my mutuals to see. If you would like me to add an alt to any of my posts, just ask!
I also tend to mess around with unicode and combining characters a lot, to make fun emoticons or ᵗⁱⁿʸ ᵗᵉˣᵗ (plaintext: tiny text) or other interesting text-based experiments. I'm guessing screenreaders don't appreciate that, so I can plaintext my posts for you if you'd like. Usually these things will be in my tags, though, so it's not too important.
I'm trying to be better about tagging screenreader-unfriendly posts, and I almost always put plaintext in tags if I type using tumblr's small text formatting.
Related: If you notice I've somehow typed a comma in my tags, it's not magic, it's unicode! There's a unicode character called single low-9 quotation mark (U+201A) that displays like this:
‚
It looks exactly like a comma, but it works in tags! Feel free to copy and paste at your leisure, or add it to a keyboard shortcut like I did.
@hecateisalesbian has demanded a mention so here. luxuriate in your @.
