That post about death note being "everyone's first anime" (untrue statement) made me curious and now I want to gather data for science
Can you reblog this and tell me where are you from and what was your starter anime?
If we're not counting childhood anime (Pokémon was my first), then Vampire Knight was my first anime. I'm from the US (Utah). But I read manga long before I got into watching anime. Nightmare Inspector might be the first manga.

Part 2 of my exploration of DTS memes years too late.
Draw your OCs Like this
Learned about DTS the other day and it sounded pretty fun so decided to give it a shot.
Tomoe is the biggest Taibani shipper and I will die on that hill.
I have a fun idea! Reblog with a photo of your pet and a caption of what it is thinking!

In light of the current spam bot epidemic, it’s so refreshing to get a follow and see it’s from someone with a normal, trustworthy name, like “pikachus-third-nipple”
I was speaking of this this very morning... 😅
What’s something that gives your anxiety?
Making Phone calls
people
socializing
going into a public place
talking to someone i don’t know
going to a party for my parents’ friend
STANDING IN THE CHECKOUT LINE AT TARGET WHILE MY MOTHER IS GRABBING THE MILK
People talking behind my back
Personal things I told ppl getting put into the open
Human interaction
Not doing things ik im gonna regret in regards of my future and whats gonna happen since I didnt do that thing
All of this
but also somebody having my phone in their hands
People going through my phone
Losing my phone
Any new or unpredictable situation, to varying degrees,
Having unexpected tasks dumped on me at work that threaten to infringe on the time I have to do my regular tasks,
People not listening to me when I make gentle suggestions, and forcing me to actively enforce my boundaries, because I’m a people pleaser and I can’t stand the thought of coming off as aggressive or disappointing people I care about,
Birthday parties, cons, and other significant events that I really want to go well, because the more I’m looking forward to something, the more my brain worries that it’ll be ruined or something will go wrong! I call it “pedestalling” 🤦♀️
…I get the feeling I’m a good bit older than some of the people replying here, lmao 😂
All these things!
Deciding what to eat for dinner, especially if others are expecting me to pick the meal or take care of all the cooking.
Computers.
Stomach issues.
Being around a lot of people.
My partner.
Physical touch / Back rubs that feel insincere.
Singing with people I don’t feel comfortable around or trust (ie singing happy birthday).
constructive criticism being confident but saying something incorrect in front of peers not being able to tell if someone actually enjoys talking to me or just tolerates me being left on read “who asked” jokes
Being alone in a crowd
GREAT novelty knot for this obi shaped like a cute bat. The soft fabric must flutter a bit when you walk, making the bat wings move (LOVE!).
To shape this knot, OP used rubber bands and a sanjûihimo (3 straps elastic belt, Billy Matsunaga has a tutorial on sewing the 4 straps-variation + see how it’s used here).
Welcome twitter users fleeing the absolute cesspool that twitter is going to become as Musk gets his way with his awful ideas! Things are better here, and hey, if you're an old user coming back, they've actually improved shit!
Here's a list of important notes for tumblr usage:
Don't censor words, particularly trigger warnings. Tumblr has a very functional blacklist (found in your settings) that can filter by post content and/or tags. But the word needs to actually be present for the filter to work. Censoring words like r*pe is actively harmful to people attempting to avoid those topics.
Use tags liberally, you have as many as you want, but don't tag unrelated shit. You'll get reported for spam really fast if you do.
Set an avatar and reblog things, otherwise you look like a bot.
You are not obligated to have your real name anywhere in your blog/bio/etc. Most people here use handles.
You can turn your ask box & anons on or off if you are experiencing any kind of harassment. You can also turn off replies on your posts, and turn off reblogs if you need to.
Tumblr has keyboard shortcuts on desktop. You can find them listed under the blog/account menu. Go learn them, they make life so much easier.
Reblog things. Seriously. Also set your dash in chronological order. You can maintain several blogs if need be, but reblogging things is normal, expected, and how you pass along stuff you enjoy.
The majority of people aren't reading your card/dni/blog bio before they reblog stuff. Posts get passed around and the OP often isn't the focal point of the post. Learn to live with it.
Fic writers: you have unlimited words, do not post fics as images.
Reblogs with comments/tags are encouraged. It's not like twitter's QRTs. The OP will see everything there. Know that before you comment.
You have a queue. This means you can set posts up ahead of time to run while you're busy. You can also completely ignore this and just spam your follows whenever you're online. Both are very commonplace
It's not weird to go through someone's blog and reblog old posts. That's actually very normal. If you add /chrono to the end of a tumblr tab then you can view an
"Spam" liking and reblogging isn't a thing that is a problem. This is invented by people I do not understand. If someone claims this is a problem, they can learn how to turn off or manage their notifications.
The only form of promotional posts that tumblr has is "blaze". There is no ad targeting or any kind of invasions of privacy with blaze. You just get subjected to w/e someone wants to show you. If you want to give tumblr some money to help the company keep going and provided an alternative to twitter, it's not a bad way to do it. You can make people look at cat photos.
Also, we have fun colors here. Plus actual formatting ability. Use it!
People lie on here for fun. Don't accept everything you see at face value, check the reblogs/replies or google something if you're skeptical! Critical thinking is good!
Above all else, be chill, use your block button if you need to, and have fun.
Addition for the fic writers: please please please add the read more option on your post. On desktop it's the orange squiggly lines that come up when you click on the textbox.
On mobile I believe it's :: readmore :: (without spaces).
The read more option shortens your post, putting whatever you have under the read more hidden until someone clicks on it. This is super helpful for mobile users if you have a long post so they don't have to scroll forever past your thing.
and finally: there is no algorithm. You have to find what you like and ignore/block what you don’t. Also the weirder you are the better you’ll be. As long as you’re not the human pet guy.
Please observe the tumblr holidays:

Hey kids here's a piece of actual for real experienced adult advice: don't make songs you like your alarm. Ever. You're gonna Pavlov yourself into hating it or sleep through it and have weird dreams. Don't do that to yourself. Seriously.

Vs Tiger and Bunny 2 cour 2
[id: screenshots of tiktok captions. the images say, “but the only reason we still love princess diana is because she did not have the time to disappoint us.”]
begging queer kids to read up on princess diana’s involvement with the community. yes, she was a rich, pretty monarch. yes, she died young.
but the reason why queer people love her is because she used her privilege during the aids crisis to advocate for sick queer men, when very few others would - much less someone of her status.
diana spent years advocating for the health and care of queer people with hiv/aids. in 1987, at the height of the epidemic, she opened the first specialist clinic dedicated to treating aids patients (the first clinic of it’s kind in the uk).
she also fought public hysteria by hugging and shaking bare hands with aids patients, at a time when aids was thought to be spread by skin to skin contact. not only that, she visited patients in the clinic regularly and even comforted them through their sickness.
and when queen elizabeth told her to try focusing on “something more pleasant”?
diana ignored her and kept fighting.
and this is only her work towards the aids crisis. she publicly called out the royal family, brought attention to numerous world issues, and was known as an advocate for empathy and kindness. she’s known and loved as the people’s princess for good reason
