All you fools deciding to follow me with your blank sideblogs to "like" my reblogs and posts???

This isn't Instagram, Pinterest, FB, or twitter.

Tumblr may be a glitchy effed up mess of a site most days but, remember, first, last, and always:

it's a blogsite.

So blog.

the thing they dont tell you about learning to "trust the process" is that you forget and relearn it every single time you make a new piece of art. unfortunately there is no cure either

The person who told the cops about her abortion was her boyfriend btw. For your safety, do not sleep with or date men who would not defend your rights. There is no "we don't talk politics" or "we just agree to disagree" when his disagreement is your loss of freedom. Stop dating men who would turn you in for a nickel if you hurt their feelings.

When she showed up at the police station, they thought she was coming to "explain herself." She was coming to report the boyfriend who'd reported her held a gun to her head for taking the pills.

Fuck Flock cameras. Fuck police who do this shit. Fuck the survelliance state.

i never really got it when people made posts about light pollution and seeing all the stars for the first time and crying. i always assumed that everyone has gone on a road trip to a bortle 1.0 place and seen stars like that, and it's fantastic, but not like life changing. and then i went to europe last month and was in a mountaintop village of like 300 people and could see about 5 stars in the sky. like fewer than i can see from my home in a big metropolitan city.

my apologies to the non-africans, i did not realise how fucked your sky is

If you delete your account, we will notify you via email with a reminder that your account can be restored within 30 days if you change your mind.

Images on the web now load faster, especially on mobile web, by downloading a size matched to your screen instead of an oversized version.

For your security, "Account activity" email notifications (sign-ins, password changes, and similar events) can no longer be turned off, so you'll always be alerted about important changes on your account.

Settings on Android have an updated interface and now also include email settings.

We now surface podcasts when searching for audio tracks to include on your posts (powered by Pocket Casts). Available to all users, with a new dedicated interface on mobile starting from version 45.5+.

🛠 Fixed

On the Activity tab in the Android app, long usernames no longer cause the notifications count to overlap the TumblrMart icon.

Usernames are no longer occasionally squished to the left in the Android app.

Sometimes, leaving and coming back to a reply draft on iOS would leave you stuck at the top of your comment. You can now see everything you wrote.

Editing a blog description that contains emoji on iOS will now properly save.

We fixed an issue on web where polls on the Trending page showed results before you voted. No more spoilers.

Some blogs' Top Posts weren't updating, even as newer posts became more popular. They should properly update now.

On web, posts you have labeled as mature can once again be added to your queue.

The "Original Posts" search filter on web now properly indicates whether it’s being applied.

🚧 Ongoing

We're investigating reports that the post editor (pencil) button in the iOS app is sometimes unresponsive.

We're investigating reports of the Android app freezing or crashing while scrolling through tag search.

We're looking into reports that some people are unable to save tags on posts that contain a video.

🌱 Upcoming

This month, our team focused on identifying and reducing spam on DMs, more to come in a separate announcement.

Related to the above, we are working on a new way to sort comments on posts to show best comments first and reduce exposure to spammy and offensive comments.

In the mobile apps, we are planning to move your Inbox out of Settings and into the Activity screen, alongside Activity and Messages.

We are exploring a full-screen view for DMs on the web.

hank and john green, i am one million percent sure you will never see this but i love awesome socks club so much, they have been the only brand of socks that my sensory issues let me wear and i have been wearing them pretty much exclusively for 2 years now, good job making a good fucking pair of socks

[sizzlingsandwichperfection-blog]

Thank you, your-favorite-nerd.

Get our socks. Your favorite nerd likes them and all the profit goes to charity.

I'm really enjoying ride or die, but even if it was the worst Show on Earth I would give it many delightful watches just for the sheer number of times that they've had handsome young man appreciate, sweet talk, and outright Romance Octavia Spencer's character.

They call her beautiful. They call her smart. They call her remarkable. They ask for her Ivy number. They want her to dance with them in the club. There is never a moment's doubt that everyone thinks that her husband was a complete idiot for not appreciating what he had.

And she's funny and she's a fish out of water but she's also both the moral heart of the show and her competence is never played for laughs. This is a woman with an Ivy League law degree and 20 years managing a household and a member of parliament's career. She saves Judith as much as Judith saves her. She loves deeply and purely and honestly but she also takes no shit and suffers no fools. Just. Debbie. Character of all time.

[alternis]

saw a post letting people know that your ao3 bookmarks are viewable on your account unless you make them private, which suggests that the median ao3 user does not use ao3 in what i will call 'the optimum fic-finding treadmill' where you find a fic author you like and look through their bookmarks to find more fics that are good and then look through that author's bookmarks for even more good fics. like a conga line of great but extremely specific tastes. or one of those chessboard rice doubling analogies and oh no that is a LOT of ao3 tabs.

know the difference

It has come to my attention that many people mistake wyverns for dragons, so here’s a post to help you remember

Dragon: 4 legs, 2 wings

Wyvern: 2 legs, 2 wings

Drake: 4 legs, flightless

Wyrms: long snake like body with no appendages, can also appear as a traditional Chinese dragon with 4. Legs and no wings yet can fly

Amphithere: 0 legs 2 wings, can be feathered

Lindwurms: 2 legs, 0 wings, long body

Luck dragon: 4 legs, no wings, can fly, long body, furry with dog like face

Komodo dragon: 4 legs, no wings, real

Bearded dragon: 4 legs, 0 wings, often kept as pets

[kick-my-ass-for-free]

as a person passionate as fuck about dragons, i stand by this post

please understand

O.O COOL

[pronouncingitwang]

at some point in your life you will be boiling fruit, water, sugar, and lemon juice in a pot to make a syrup or jam. the instructions will tell you to simmer for a certain amt of time. your timer will go off and you will look at the pot and go, "hm, this doesn't look thick enough. maybe i'll let it go for another 10 minutes." this is the devil speaking. it's only so liquid right now because it is at boiling point. it will thicken when it cools down. learn from the follies of my youth and do not let this happen to you

[yokowan]

at some point in your life you will be making a sauce or a stew in which you need to add cornstarch to thicken it. and you will prepare a slurry of starch in cold water and think "this looks like way too little starch to thicken this amount of liquid." this is the devil speaking. cornstarch instantly polymerizes at 95°C and if you add too much it will turn into an impossibly thick goop.

[le-jardin-inculte]

at some point in your life you will be making some sort of cream based dessert that requires gelatin to thicken it. and you will soak some gelatin sheets in water and think "this is too few gelatin sheets for this amount of cream." this is the devil speaking. it will thicken in the fridge and if you add too much you will end up with milk jelly

[shithowdy]

at some point in your life you will be baking cookies. you will take the sheet out after twelve minutes as the recipe instructs and the cookies will still be glistening and soft. "these don't seem cooked enough," you will think to yourself, "i should place them back into the oven until their edges are nice and golden." this is the devil talking. this is how you get dry, overdone cookies. the cookies will continue to bake on the warm sheet for several more minutes and then harden up after sitting on a rack for a while. trust the process. trust the process.

[whitachi]

at some point in your life you will be adding a small pasta to a soup and you will think "that is not enough small pasta." this is the devil talking. the pasta will absorb the stock and expand. this is how you end up with a soup that is a solid mass of soggy ditalini.

[araceil]

At some point in your life you will be adding garlic to a dish and you will think "that is not enough garlic." These are angels speaking. They are correct. Add more garlic.

You don’t own fanfics. They’re inherently public domain because they aren’t your IP. Agree or disagree with AI, there are no grounds for “protection” from AI because it isn’t your IP to begin with. That’s what you chose when you chose this medium

Oh dear.

Okay, you get an answer, because at least you took the effort to write your ask out properly, even if you are hiding behind the grey, sunglassed circle.

Do I, or any fanfic author for that matter, have any legal claims to our work? No, not really, no. (Although if someone took a fic, filed off the serial number--deleted the fandom specific elements--, and then had it published for financial gain, yeah, that would be a case.)

BUT

Fandoms are built on a social contract that says we respect each others work, the effort people put into their art. We don't steal or disrespect the work of our peers. By feeding people's fanworks to AI you both steal and disprect it, and we need to make people realize that before it's too late--before fandom falls apart, because there will be no more real, actual fanworks.

Disrepectfully,

Orlissa

(i can't believe I have to say this)
