MURDER SHE WROTE: Showdown in Saskatchewan 4.20 (1988)

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 horrible I can't see the number of notes on my posts at all without adding up everything in the chain

Cursed cursed cursed evil evil evil

This is a terrible idea. Horrible.

EXTREMELY BAD HOLY FUCK.

This would kill the entire point of the reblog chain. Staff, please, don't do this. It will transform the reblog chain in just plain twitter quotes.

[jv]

Seriously, this is a tumblr-killer feature. This breaks the most fundamental way tumblr is different from any other social network. This makes tumblr just another blueskytwitterthreads. Or worse: An unfederated mastodon clone.

Please, stop this. Please, don't roll this out.

[jv]

Please, mutuals, post about this, comment and reblog the original post (while you still can without making it your own quote-post). I don't know if staff is looking or if the feedback would matter, but seriously, this is a terrible change that would kill tumblr as we know it. Please, don't roll it out.

[jv]

look, I can endure any kind of UI changes that are supposed to help tumblr-rookies to understand how this works. They may be a nuisance, but that's ok, we have x-kit or we can get used to buttons being here or there.

But this. This changes the data architecture. This changes the SINGLE THING that makes tumblr the "... yes and" website. This KILLS THE COLLABORATIVE POSTING THAT MAKES THIS SITE DIFFERENT FROM ALL THE OTHER MEDIA PLATFORMS.

Please, don't do this. Please, don't ship this.

Tumblr has explicitly said in the past that they do not look at comments on their updates posts. You have to PUT IN A SUPPORT TICKET AND SELECT FEEDBACK FROM THE DROPDOWN

Reblog if you will never. Ever. Use AI in your writing.

If you’re being questioned about a murder by one of those hobbyist detectives. it is an absolute rule that you have to be washing the dishes or pruning some plants while talking, so that when they finally get around to asking a pointed question about where you were at the time of the murder you can freeze for a second with a knife in your hand. It’s enrichment for them you gotta understand. They thrive off of red herrings, it’s their favorite treat, so even if you have a rock solid alibi and weren’t involved with the murder at all you have to give them some reason to be suspicious of you. It’s what friends are for.

the-expatriate​:

“Sure, Jessica. I’d be glad to clarify!”

Pari replied before finding some separate pictures of her feline friends. The first picture she’d centred on was of a calico cat who was lounging on a cushion.

“This one is Dave. She’s the lady of the house!”

She then would swipe to a picture of a black and white tuxedo cat with a little moustache marking on his face and a bow tie.

“Sir Thomas, he’s a fancy boy.”

Lastly, she’d swipe to a picture of a very fluffy grey cat.

“This is Cloudy Bollocks. He looks like a grumpy little cloud but he’s actually a really sweet gentleman.”

@the-expatriate​ “They’re all so beautiful,” Jessica cooed appreciatively as she looked at the pictures. “You know you can really see their personalities coming through in their expressions as well? I’ve always found that fascinating about pets.”

Taking note of the time, she turned towards the entrance to the bar. “Your manager should be here any minute now... Has he sent you any updates?”

Ok, I’m not a big fan of these kinds of posts, but lately, I’m becoming more and more disheartened so I need to know if you’re out there. 

Please reblog this post if you are willing to write with ‘un-shippable’ muses. 

I’m talking about those muses who are perhaps elderly, who are married/taken and not liable to affairs, muses who are asexual/aromantic, or even just muses whose muns don’t really want to ship. 

While I’m always happy that anyone would want to write with me, sadly, over time I have realised that my older/married/ace muses are very rarely (virtually never) requested. So please share this on your blog so that people know they can throw their muses at you who are not going to wind up in ships or with smut threads.

the-expatriate​:

“Oh no, I got them at different times.. Lady Dave was the first, then Sir Thomas and then Cloudy Bollocks was the third.”

Pari stated, peeking through the pictures in turn.

“I’ve always had cats, and I’m pretty experienced in getting them all used to each other!”

“Cloudy-? Oh, my!” Jessica gave a small chuckle as her face pulled into a somewhat embarrassed expression. “Well, they certainly do have some unique names! Do you mind pointing out which is which for me?”

“That’s good. I’ve always heard they’re quite social creatures, so I’m sure they appreciate having each other’s company.”

[fletchershewrote]

the-expatriate​:

“Ah, I absolutely do! Come and have a look..”

Rather than make Jessica come to her, she made her way over with a massive smile on her face and was immediately ready to hand over the phone with all of the cat pictures on it.

“Here you go! Feel free to look..”

Jessica took the phone and began scrolling through the pictures, seeming to have no trouble navigating or dealing with the touch screen.

“Oh now these are precious.” She said, smiling warmly as she paused to take a while longer admiring a shot of all three cats together. “Did you get them all at the same time? They certainly seem to get along well enough even if that isn’t the case.”

[fletchershewrote]

the-expatriate​:

“Oh yeah, I absolutely understand that. Cats and birds, gotta be careful with putting them together.”

Pari of course could completely understand where Jessica was coming from but it was also reassuring to hear that she could share her excitement about her feline friends.

“I’ve got three. Rescues, all of them! Cats, of course.”

“Oh, how lovely! Do you have pictures?” She asked, leaning forward with interest.

Rescue cats could be quite a handful from what she’d heard, especially those that came from feral cat colonies. There had been quite a problem with one forming in the hay loft of someone’s barn back in Cabot Cove a few years ago, though luckily the farmer had discovered it before it had gotten beyond a dozen or so cats.

the-expatriate​:

“Not as such, it’s as quiet as can be some days around here so I can’t say I have many of those.”

Pari did however crack a knowing little smile, before reaching into her phone.

“I can however show you something really silly. Tell me, Jessica. Are you okay with cats?”

“I adore cats.” Jessica said, her eyes crinkling softly at the corners. “I’ve never kept any myself because of my parakeets, but I’ve been known spoil my neighbor’s cat whenever I stop by for a visit.”
