shout out to ace and aro kids who are constantly bombarded with the opinion that sex and romantic love are directly connected to living a happy life.
Y’all are just reblogging this at the speed of sound tonight
Since it’s almost valentines day, and this message is about to get hammered in even more, reblogging this again.
Reminder that the right to internet access was deemed a human right by the United Nations in 2003 as it’s a form of expression and opinion. Please remind your representatives that curtailing your access to websites and accounts is a violation of human rights.
Hey what the fuck happened to all the net neutrality coverage
This shit is still happening people, and all of the sudden its disappeared from my dash almost entirely over night
I don’t know why, but I think people are automatically being unfollowed from the Net Neutrality tag. It happens to me every time I try to follow it. I’ll follow the tag, come back 20 minutes later & I’ll for some reason have unfollowed the tag automatically. I think this may be happening to a majority of people in an attempt to silence the resistance. Please take a screen shot of this post in case it gets deleted.
hey yeah can yall reblog this cause this is very important. Tumblr is ACTIVELY trying to silence out outrage at this by making us incapable of seeing coverage of events. We’re all gonna have to come together and step up about this.
Every little note counts, spread the word, dont give in so easily
I just checked this and i can CONFIRM that tumblr AUTOMATICALLY MAKES YOU UNFOLLOW THE NET NEUTRALITY TAGS AFTER 20 MINUTES
Please spread the word! Screen shot this post just in case it gets deleted!!
Tumblr: *rolls out “best stuff first”*
My blog:
on the one hand this is a joke post because lol i have never made a good post in my life, but also, if i hadn’t made the connection between this update and my sudden nosedive in activity, i would have been really fucking discouraged about all the shit i’ve been working on lately. i guarantee there are people on tumblr right now who haven’t made that connection, and who are trying to figure out why suddenly no one likes anything they’ve made. and that fucking sucks.
Reminder to go into your settings and turn off ‘Best Stuff First’ because my activity’s tanked a couple days ago for no reason so this stuff IS happening.
You WILL miss content with that setting on.
i ain’t joking when i say that my activity looks JUST like this too and i wasn’t sure why
I can only find the option on the app under Settings > Dashboard Preferences.
To support content creators do us a favour and turn off “Best stuff first”. Open the tumblr app (Android or iOs) and go to “Settings > Dashboard Preferences. And please reblog this post, so that everybody will see this. Thank you very much!
I assumed I just wasn’t writing very well, but maybe it’s not just me.
Am I supposed to pay to get my writing in front of followers now?
We interrupt your regularly-scheduled sci-fi content because this is important for app users, and it sucks. We all follow blogs because we want to see their content, not to have a crappy algorithm decide what’s best.
This blog is down approximately 80%, which doesn’t affect me other than as an annoyance (as this is a hobby and @okayto is small-ish) but the issue undoubtedly hurts others.
Below are instructions for turning it off. You have to do it individually–it doesn’t matter if a blog you follow turns it off, you’ll still be affected unless you do the same.
We don’t normally reblog PSAs, but this is very clearly affecting us, too! If you haven’t been getting your daily dose of RPG humor, this setting is probably why. Turn it off so you can see all the silly shit players say!
Trying to reblog the versions of these instructions with the most notes, so they’ll actually show up for the people afflicted by this update.
Helm and Sword approached Liddel's office cautiously - they hadn't directly asked anyone, but while crossing the school in shadows, they'd overheard a few things that had them concerned, so they'd dug out things they'd packed just in case they themselves were harmed. Anxious about facing the professor before they'd finished their homework, they left their old tome on healing and their poultices and herbs by the door with a note on top, before knocking and hiding in shadows. [From Helm+Sword]
Still holding Travis, the Professor opened the door looking left and right… Somebody had knocked! He was sure! The felinoid then glanced below, noticing the book and the note picking them up, proceeding then to read the note
@ominousau-badendbabs
The two horrors watched warily from the shadows, not daring to make a sound as the professor emerged - and holding a baby! Beneath the poultices and herbs making up their medical kit from home, the note resting upon their tome read as follows:
Professor Liddel
We didn’t mean to eavesdrop, but we heard things anyway, that you were looking up healing things, and we got worried.
You are a nice Professor and we don’t want you to be sick or sad because someone else is, so we brought you some things in case they help.
We only have one of that book, so can we have it back after, please?
We are sorry we weren’t coming to hand in something, we’re still stuck on a few names, but we think we’re close.
Helm and Sword
“Oh..”his ears twitched at the heartwarming words of the note. He smiled, looking at his son “See? This year there are such nice people to teach, my angel” he said kissing his forehead “We’ll have to thank them in some manner” he added while returning inside the office
Within the shadows, Helm and Sword were relieved to see their teacher not only accepting their attempt at aid, but appreciating it as well. They'd been worried that it would be presumptuous of them, or insulting somehow, but it seemed that this had been a good idea after all. Once Liddel had carried his adorable little child back into the office, they melted out of the shadows with an air of relief and satisfaction. A moment passed, and they decided to go back to figuring out their homework, even if it meant guessing. They didn't want to disappoint the professors.

Helm and Sword
He'd held his peace for a little while, equal parts curious and hesitant, but he felt he had to speak up now. Sword lifted his drawing, such as it was, so that the professor could see. “Do you think you could tell us which of these resonate most or least with you?” Yes, it sounded weird, but he'd stick to his guns.

“…Thank you, Pi.” Sword responded with a nod, not having noticed the rose at all, more focused on getting the information they needed. “Do you know where Professor Red might be, anyone? …What items can we get quickly that’d represent things? Do we have time not to just write things down instead, or draw pictures of things?” He didn’t know if they could handle a fetch quest as well as everything else.
@rintaeldritch
“What if we just like… draw pictures of stuff instead? Instead of getting the actual items, we draw pictures of those items and we show then to the professors!” Rinta offered thoughtfully, placing her hand on her cheek. “That’ll be a lot easier I think.”
@redrion
“Sounds good to me! Though I can’t draw to save my immortal life. If one of you guys can draw then in that case we could totally go with that and start going to each of the professors, starting with Professor Red so we can get even more information to cross reference.”
@ominousau-badendbabs
Sword wasn’t sure how good his attempt was, but he scrawled something quickly and held it up for the others to see, deliberately avoiding their gaze.
@rintaeldritch
Rinta tilted her head at the paper that was held up. “That works!” She smiled. “That should be understable for the Professors.” It wasn’t the best art, but it was still good art!
@redrion
“Leagues better than what I could do. Nice job Sword.” He grinned. “First stop is Professor Red’s office then! Onwards!”
@ominousau-badendbabs
Sword's features tinted slightly black as he was given these little scraps of praise, and he hid his face behind his doodles as they proceeded towards the professor's office. He wasn't used to this, but he liked it. When they reached the door, it was he who knocked, hoping that the professor would also at least understand what he'd drawn, and not think it ridiculous.

It’s my last Veterans Day in active duty status and I’d be eternally grateful if you could help with my transition back into civilian life. All it takes is a reblog. Thank you!

Oh! That was Pi! They’d been told he was a knight, and honestly? That kiiiind of made Sword more than a little anxious about him. He didn’t look like the knights who’d hurt he and Helm, but the word drew unpleasant associations all the same. He kept a hand on the pommel of his sword, but made no move to draw it - he just wanted the reassurance it provided. “Do you know if we’re allowed in the kitchens to ask which professor eats the most? We want to work out who represents Gluttony.”
@rintaeldritch
Sword and Helm approached the other student cautiously, but with a determined mien, Helm hanging back to allow Sword to do the talking. "You are Lena Lowell, yes? The librarian said we should ask you about what you learned for the homework." (There's no anon option but this is from ominousau-badendbabs)
“Yeah, that’s me. It’s nice to meet new students. you can ask me anything and i’ll help” Lena said with an angelical voice.
Sword scowled, shifting in place, and folded his arms. “It’s a nightmare when you’re not used to anything like this, too. Helm and me, we’ve barely interacted with anyone for years, and now we have to talk to who knows how many people to finish a project? It’s nerve-wracking.”
Helm nodded distractedly, flitting anxiously left and right as he tried to think of a solution. “If all else fails, we could go for broke and outright ask the ones we have no information on?”
@rintaeldritch
“That's a good point... perhaps a magazine filled with fashion for Vanity?” He suggested, tilting his head, before expressing his agreement for the idea of reversing the scales. “We could always ask a staff member if we're allowed in the kitchens? We won't find out if we don't try something.”
Sword and Helm approached the other student cautiously, but with a determined mien, Helm hanging back to allow Sword to do the talking. "You are Lena Lowell, yes? The librarian said we should ask you about what you learned for the homework." (There's no anon option but this is from ominousau-badendbabs)
“Yeah, that’s me. It’s nice to meet new students. you can ask me anything and i’ll help” Lena said with an angelical voice.
The sound of the other student’s voice was softly lyrical, and Helm felt sure he’d have been able to guess that she was an angel without seeing her. True, that didn’t matter so much, but both of them found it calming. “Nice to meet you, too – I am Helm, and this is Sword, by the way. Perhaps we could compare our notes and discuss theories?”
“Of course! i’ll be glad to help and be helped”
She said with a really big smile. She wasn’t going to lie, even if she was solitary, it felt nice to interact with other people.
They smiled at this, relieved – they weren't used to interacting with others much yet either, but they weren't about to pass up an opportunity to collaborate. “Here's our notes, then! We've also discussed Professor Green potentially representing Greed with someone else, if that helps.”
[Prof. Grey – Opium and relaxing plants book. Relaxation – sloth? Could correlate to gluttony if eaten, but not as close a match.]
[Prof Liddel – angels book – virtue/s? Need to check if one or more than one. Prof Arbanne – eros book – that’s definitely lust-related, judging by the Ancient Greek connotations. Prof White – shapeshifting book – vanity? It seems appearance related anyway, but that could just be a book that’s interesting.]
Sword's dark eyes gleamed as he glanced between the other two, having added scrawlings about Professor Green possibly being Greed to their notes. “Excellent! What sorts of things do you think we could use as such items? Oh, and do you think the kitchens'd know which professor eats the most? That might be Gluttony. What about items for the virtues, though?”
@rintaeldritch
Most permanent in a while, hmm? Had she been nomadic? The idea of making friends was still something he was uncertain of, but hopeful. He tilted his head as they walked, shrugging slightly. “It's... very different, not like the shadows at all. I don't know what to expect – it has been some time since I lived in the outside world.”
