hi not sure if you can assist with this but i'm having trouble with gifs resizing and the photo sets not fitting in my theme. i've tried changing the photourl- and all but nothing is working. ty

Hello! I apologize that I know this ask is very very old — I don’t really get on tumblr much at all because I have so much going on irl. As far as the theme question goes, it would be highly specific on the actual coding of the theme. I’m by no means a coding expert — if I spend enough time messing around with a theme I can usually figure things out. I always recommend trying to go to the theme creator first; something such as this, they’ve likely had the question before. If you’re still looking for help, I hope this helped!

[lucyrpgs]

and how you tried to make it work, did you really think it could? how you tried to make it last, did you really think it would? like a guest who's stayed too long, now it's finally time to leave -- yes, it's finally time to leave. take it calmly and serene; it's the famous final scene.

the famous final scene ( bob seger ) 

[lucyrpgs]

is there a way to remove the 3 admins option on your secrets theme? I love the theme but I don't want to mess with your coding without permission. thank you love!

Hi dear. Any of the themes that I’ve reblogged are not my creations -- you would have to go to the source of the reblog to find the creator of the theme as ask them!

tips for writing bilingual characters

there are different types of bilinguals

the All Around: speaks, reads, and writes both languages pretty well

the Conversational: one language is stronger than the other; can speak the other language a lot better than they read/write it (a lot of kids of immigrants are this type)

the High Schooler: understands what’s being said to them in the other language, can’t really speak it

don’t have your characters randomly drop words from their other language mid-sentence around people who don’t speak it lol

languages are a mindset thing. like personally if i’m around english-speakers, i’m speaking english and i don’t really switch to my other language (which is portuguese)

so like if you’re writing a bilingual character who speaks spanish and have them say something like “hey chad let’s go to the biblioteca” to an english speaker i’ll probably spend 5 minutes laughing and then close your story lmao

exception: the character is speaking in their weaker language and forgot a word (”where are the…? uh… llaves…. keys! keys, where are they?”)

otherwise really the only time your character should be randomly switching languages mid-sentence is if they’re talking to another bilingual

like i don’t speak spanish but i’ve legit never heard a spanish speaker say “ay dios mio” to gringos lmao

conversations between two bilingual people can take a few different forms:

Pick One: they pick one language and kinda stick with it for the whole conversation (a conversation i might have with my portuguese-speaking mom: ”you okay?” “yeah, i’m good. how’re you?” “i’m fine, but your dad-”)

Back-and-Forth: someone says something in one language, the other person replies in the other (”tudo bem?” “yeah, i’m good. how’re you?” “tou bem, mas o seu pai-”)

Combo: they speak a combo of the two languages, a popular example being spanglish, though basically every bilingual has their own combo language (”tudo bem?” “sim, tou bem. how’re you?” “i’m fine, mas o seu pai-”)

when in doubt: just ask a bilingual to look at your stuff and tell you if anything sounds weird

[ironinkpen]

combo languages can look different depending on the bilingual

me and my cousin (native english speakers) speaking our portuguese/english combo sounds a lot different than my mom and my godmother (native portguese speakers) doing the same thing

the kids of immigrants usually come up with their own unique way of saying things that are different than native speakers

if you’re writing a bilingual family the older kids’ll probably be more bilingual than the younger ones

also, to clarify: bilingual characters might say words in another language on purpose in front of non-speakers

either to fuck with them or just ‘cause the word captures what they’re feeling more (i use “caralho” a lot)– basically the point is that accidental switching is relatively uncommon

i know earlier i said that people will forget words if they’re speaking their weaker language but tbh i do it with my stronger language too so really it works both ways

filler words are weirdly universal

so like while bilingual people don’t usually switch languages around people who aren’t bilingual we’ll throw filler words in

“ele me olhou e, like, eu juro que eu quase deu um soco nele-”

a lot of languages borrow words from english so it’s not too weird to have a random english word in an otherwise non-english conversation (my aunt @ my mom: “lilian você viu meu post no Facebook?”)

also sounds in general are just kind of a language transcending thing

you wanna find out what someone’s first language was?? break one of their bones lol

legit me when i cracked my rib: “AIIIIIII JESUS CHRIST TAKE ME TO THE HOSPITAL”

so if your character gets hurt they might make a sound of pain associated with their native language but will probably still speak in the language of the people they’re surrounded by. probably. it depends on just how much pain they’re in

if two people start speaking another language in public there’s a 40% chance they’re talking shit and a 60% chance they’re having a conversation like: “where’s the bathroom” “i don’t know, ask the waitress she’s right here” “i can’t just ask-”

this is the most accurate bi/multilingual reference post on here y’all should take notes 👀

[lucyrpgs]

hiiii im really sorry to bother you but i keep having problems with the error even though i’ve followed all your steps :((( i think it’s something with the font faces outside tumblr maybe? links for it in html are appearing in red for me, like it is invalid or something. thank you for helping!

Hi friend! You’re not bothering me at all. It may be easiest if you were to IM me off of anon so that we can back and forth a little easier and I can try and help you out!

[lucyrpgs]

Are you trying to change your theme, but getting this error?:

Here’s how you can fix it! With screencaps!

Basically, the problem -- which I guess is a recent development in tumblr because they like to make life difficult with each update -- is any “http” in your theme code needs to read as “https”. Which you can just use the “replace all” function in the custom code. But, if you don’t know how to do that, no worries! I will show you. Open your blog, and go to the html customization screen. Hit control+f ( or command+f on a mac ). Type “http” on the left side, and “https” on the right, and then click all. Not just replace, as it will replace them one at a time.

Then click update preview, and save and then you’re done! EDIT: Upon me trying this on a few pages, I actually recommend HTTP: under search replaced by HTTPS:. Otherwise, instead, if you do have any original https in the code, it’ll add an additional, unneeded ‘s’ to the end.

FRIDAY LOVERS.

[lucyrpgs]

Sleeping At Last Starters

From the album Space.

We may fall in love every time we open up our eyes.

I guess space and time takes violent things - angry things and makes them kind.

We are infinite as the universe we hold inside. 

Only street lights notice me.

I am desperate, if nothing else.

I’ll go anywhere you want.

And somehow I’ve fallen in love with this middle ground at the cost of my soul.

I convinced myself that I would never find you.

You’re as beautiful as endless.

You’re the universe I’m helpless in.

Like a telescope I will pull you so close until no space lies in between.

I was a billion little pieces until you pulled me into focus.

Let my change of heart occur.

I put it out of my mind long enough to call it courage.

We left our date of births and our history behind.

We were full of life, we could barely hold it in.

We were amateurs at war, strangers to suffering.

We’re surrounded and afraid.

Our lives now in the hands of the soldiers taking aim. 

How our bodies born to heal become so prone to die?

Thought time is ruthless, it showed up kindness in the end.

Lay your weapons down, they’re calling off the war on account of losing track of what we’re fighting for.

So we found our way back home, let our cuts and bruises heal.

There is goodness in the heart of every broken man.

I don’t know who I am, but now I know who I’m not.

Make my messes matter, make this chaos count.

You taught me the courage of stars before you left.

How rare and beautiful it is to even exist.

I couldn’t help but ask you to say it all again.

I’d give anything to hear you say it one more time.

The universe was made just to be seen by my eyes.

It was a stained glassed variation of the truth.

I felt empty handed.

Stitch by stitch, I tear apart.

I’m only honest when it rains.

When I open my mouth, I want to tell you but I don’t know how.

I want to love you, but I don’t know how.

Shake what’s left of me loose.

I leaned in and let it hurt.

I rebuild when I break down.

Still I’m pinned under the weight of what I believed would keep me safe.

Show me where my armor ends, show me where my skin begins.

[lucyrpgs]

Better Than Ezra Starters

From the album Paper Empire.

I can’t tell you why we struggle to survive. 

When all my senses lie, I can’t believe my eyes.

With all the blood that I can give, I choose to live.

Tell me why we bother hurting one another.

How do you explain striking down our brother, lying to a lover?

We are wounded.

But if love could be blind with no more compromise, what might happen?

If you could spin the world the other way, could you do it on faith?

How would it feel if every dream came real, and all the scars you have fade away for just one day?

All the moments that we never got to live.

Cause I’m out of breath, my air is gone.

Let me be the one to offer you proof.

Despite all these cynical lies, I finally found a piece to fit in my life.

I was adrift out on my own, you came along and carried me home.

Cause I'm not looking for a broken excuse, but I need you now to heal all my wounds.

Put on your best dress and make up your face.

She caught 'em making out in the cubicle.

Are you having a good time?

When you walk in the noise disappears.

Where you begin is perfectly clear.

When we'd go out, yeah, it'd feel just like home.

There's something I've been meaning to ask you.

Gods of war march into battle, make the ground shake.

You will keep your head held high whether you win or you lose.

I haven't felt you for a while.

I haven't had much opportunity to smile.

I see you in the eyes of couples passing by.

I wish you'd stay a little longer.

No, that's okay, I understand.

It was nice to know you if only for a while.

So take this city into your arms and hold it like a kiss.

The endless worries are out of reach.

Promise me we'll never leave this room.

A million years from now would be too soon.

My thoughts are running at the speed of light.

Got an empty feeling that I never want to fill.

That every door I shut is leading me to you.

You knew all along there'd come a day you'd have to face.

I hear a loud voice in my head, for all the things I never said.
