And just what IF I made an intro post /j

Hi, my name is Cecil/Moth, I’m an Adult, and I use he/him pronouns. Trans and Queer, somewhere dubious on the aromantic spectrum which for me means I still want to kiss boys just in a (queer)platonic way.

My interests are entomology/insects, Camp Here and There, horror media, The Locked Tomb, PJO, vulture culture, Writing <3, poetry, and probably a good few more I’m forgetting :)

Some of my favorite bands are Florence + The Machine, Siouxsie and the Banshees, The Crane Wives, MCR, fall out boy, miniature tigers, and Jordaan Mason & The Horse Museum.

Plz send me pictures of cool bugs you find :)

the blog killing axolotl is one of my favorite things that has ever happened on this website because talking about it afterwards sounds like an inside joke or perhaps a prank. like always be on the lookout for the blog killing axolotl. he can kill your blog. it happened to me once trust me.

[anthonycrowley]

there’s this very specific image of an axolotl plushie with the phrase ‘i am at my limit’ that i’m not posting for obvious reasons (even though i’m inoculated because i tried to post it before) that if you try to post it tumblr will immediately delete your blog. like completely. your blog is just gone if you try to post the image. you can get it reinstated but you have to go to staff and be like ‘hi my blog was killed by a picture of an axolotl can you please give me it back.’ we found this out completely accidentally when brianna brucespringsteendotcom made the image and then posted it and then her blog was just gone, at which point we started to experiment. anyway, a while later we found that if someone submits the image and you don’t know what it is and you try to post it it will also nuke your blog. this obviously all sounds like an incredibly stupid internet hoax so when you try to warn people about the blog killing axolotl you just sound like you’re trolling but i promise you, from the bottom of my heart, that we are not.

[anthonycrowley]

people in the tags are like ‘i don’t know if this is true but it sounds wild’ i feel like the old man you meet in the first five minutes of a horror movie that tells the teenagers on spring break not to visit the creepy old house at the end of the road

FAQs:

1. Is this the image of the axolotl plushie with the fire behind it?

NO! that is a different, more well known axolotl image that does not delete your blog.

2. Can I see the image?

for obvious reasons i'm not reblogging it to this post. however, since so many people asked, i put it safely in a google doc for you. go nuts.

3. hey, i remember this! it was over a year ago. does this still delete your blog?

someone in my askbox has informed me, under certain circumstances, yes. and that image is live, so be careful with it.

4. have you figured out what causes it?

same person in my askbox said this

which was my first theory before i went down the source code rabbit hole, although there must be a certain threshold for editing it since in the past people have posted censored versions where it still deletes your blog.

5. can i use it as my icon/can i send it to someone in dms/can i upload it if it's not in a post/can i post an edited version of the picture?

back when this first happened if you did any of the above it deleted your blog, unless it was pretty heavily edited (someone in my discord put him behind bars - you know like he was caged - and i think when we uploaded that it didn't delete the person's blog? i could be wrong though). see the above ask for the most recent information. someone in the notes earlier (don't remember who, sorry) also said that you can upload the original via mobile and it kills your blog, but if you try to post it on desktop it blocks it from being uploaded, so that's also another route you could go if you want to experiment.

6. why have i never heard about this before?

spnblr is more complex and layered than you can possibly imagine it's not my fault you can't see it for the majesty it is.

7. this still sounds fake.

hey man, weird thing to lie about. but the picture and all the information you need to test it out is right here. post it to your blog. go on. prove me wrong. 🙂

8. didn't people try to remotely delete neil gaiman's blog by submitting that image to him?

we did do that yeah.

Grace: Oh yeah, when I was a teen, I was really into conservation. You know, protesting development, volunteering for environmental groups. Things like that. Ooh, I remember once chaining myself to a tree so they wouldn’t cut it down. I even helped run a summer camp to teach kids about nature and how to identify different plants.

Simon: ….. Take off your clothes.

I'll never get over how during the "nega" bullshit, I saw the hard R thrown around left and right and there were whole klan rallies going on in the comments of every big post about it. and now that it's died down, it's just considered "fandom drama."
