to those of you who are moving here from tiktok, from someone whos used both tiktok and tumbr for years...

1. DO NOT censor your posts

dont censor sex, abuse, suicide, dont censor it. we dont have censors like tiktok does, you wont be banned for talking about these things and tagging them properly helps people avoid them (also, we dont have shadowbanning here)

2. we dont really have an algorithm

you follow who you follow, and you see posts from who you follow or what you search. the 'for you page' is basically useless here. this also brings me to my next two points

3. dont crosstag

we get it, on tiktok you have to crosstag for reach, but thats not really a thing here. just tag your posts properly (also posters often leave more info about the post in the tags!! and when you reblog stuff you can leave your own notes in the tags, kind of like the old "repost comments" on tiktok)

4. dont expect to go viral/be famous

"viral" isnt really a thing on here (at least not for the average blogger). your posts will probably get 2-10 likes and you wont get nearly as many followers than on tiktok. thats just how tumblr is

5. blocking is your best friend

tiktok is VERY discussion based, and while tumblr is much more discussion based than other social medias, its still not a good place for ragebait/discourse. dont interact, itll make your experience worse in the end, just block and move on

6. you cant go into someone elses house and start rearranging their furniture

this is tumblr, not tiktok. dont diss old tumblr users for how they use the site or try to change them, thats like going into someone elses house and trying to rearrange their furniture. we've been here longer and we're familiar with the site and its culture, either find your niche, adapt, or find a different app

Another important point

You need to actually reblog posts for this site to work as it should.

Liking posts only saves them in a spot that no one checks except for the user who liked them. Most people have their liked posts hidden.

Also, this site has a spam bot problem. One way we weed those out is to check the blog to see if it's actually being used to post legitimate content. If there is absolutely nothing on your blog you're getting blocked and some users may just straight up report you as spam as a precaution.

Not to mention that the posts you reblog will only be seen by you and whoever follows you. Tagging it "fyp" does absolutely nothing.

But also... while your follower count may be way lower (and since no one knows what it is it offers zero clout), the followers you do have will be way more engaged.

I get a lot more interaction with my 6k followers on Tumblr than I ever did my 22k followers on TikTok.

Was driving with my grandmother and in broken English she says “no eyes… no nose… no face. Don’t trust.” To which I looked around wildly in search of this omen of ill portend.

Cybertruck. It was a cybertruck.

I've been reading Kakashi Retsuden and oh boy...

So the mission happened when Kakashi was 7 years old (we know that from the manga), he lived two years with the hate of the village over his father, now he is 9 and he found his dead father, he reported the death to the Hokage, and he also took care of his father funeral. Great, that's fuking great... it gets worse, because many people came, but to say things like these:

It is BAD... once again... it gets worse, because Sakumo isn't the only target:

Kakashi couldn't win here, if he cried for his father they would get angry because they thought Sakumo wouldn't deserve it. If he doesn't cry for him he is creepy. If it hasn't started before, when Sakumo was still alive, it started here, with Sakumo's death.

Where is Minato in all of this? He makes an appearance after the end of the second day of mourning, when Kakashi is walking alone to his home:

They WEREN'T CLOSE! AND IT GETS WORSE!

Kakashi is 9 years old and it is not until a "few years later" that Minato becomes his boss, Kakashi is at least 11 when team Minato happens. Kakashi spends at least 2 years alone!! Well, I bet Gai was there somehow, but he was not part of a team with Gai, so from age 6 to 11 he probably was a rotating teammate of older people, like the people that went to Sakumo's wake!

Team Minato becomes the first time he is kind of out of his father's shadow, Minato seems cool with Sakumo, and the kids don't know shit or say nothing. He is 12 when he becomes Jounin and Kannabi Bridge happens and Obito dies, 12 or barely 13 when Rin dies, 14 when Minato dies. Kakashi gained a spark of hope and it got violently snuffed in front of his eyes, and the only thing that did was to cement the idea that he wanted to protect his people, he might fail, but he only can keep trying.

This quote:

"No one will ever understand the violence it took just to be this gentle"

This is Kakashi.

If you're ever worried about whether your writing is too self indulgent, I just want you to remember that Sharknado had 5 sequels. I'm only partway through watching Sharknado 6: It's About Time, but already they've traveled through time and ridden a pteronadon into a Sharknado so they could use the magic teleportation portal inside of it to travel forward in time to King Arthur's time, where they are currently battling a Sharknado full of fire-breathing dragon sharks with Excalibur, which is a chainsaw sword that calls lightning. You're fine. In fact, be a little more self indulgent if anything.

[suspiciouspopsicle]

op I would like to formally apologize for thinking you were lying

[roach-pizza]

How are they rated like this

[kedreeva]

Because I'm correct. The movies aren't the greatest movies of all time or anything, but they are loved, because they are fun, because the creators clearly had fun making exactly what they wanted, no matter how indulgent it might seem to anyone else, and the actors put their hearts into it and were also clearly having fun. It's okay to do that, and making something you really want to make instead of what you think other people want you to make WILL show in your creation. I will go bonkers loving a movie or show or book or piece of artwork that loves itself and is fun before I ever do for some bland, soulless thing.

A lot of people have mistaken my original post as a dig at Sharknado. It's not. It's 100% saying if you were a little more like that, it's actually fine. People will still love what you create. Hell, they might even love it more when you make things you clearly liked to make.
