Dethklok as a concert is such a fun show and I love seeing their songs live but I also just wanna say how much I WOULD GO SO CRAZY for a full Doomstar Requiem show. Like I just want to watch a full playthrough/performance. I guess that's not really possible with him doing like half the voices but udkggirhgh I love the Doomstar Requiem so much I love every song in it and I jam out to the whole thing so hard

[shang-hung]

Like the one part of the Dethklok show last year when they played the Toki/Skwisgaar duel I was McFreakin Losing It TM I got a little snippet of it because I knew I'd be mad at myself if I didnt save some amount of it to look back on again but other than that I just spent the whole song bouncing and flailing my hands around like a doofus i FUCKING LOVE THE DOOMSTAR REQUIEM

got told at lunch "you feel like Tumblr Incarnate" and i had to tell them i've been here for 13 years and counting. i was here three years before dashcon happened. i saw the mishapocalypse. i survived the gigapause. i've been here longer than the shoelaces post. i've been here since it was hipsters versus fandom and i played both sides extensively by overdoing the sepia filters on everything and making my own flashing galaxy gif edits for my fandom posts. i'm every tumblr. it's all in me

[dovelylittlebird]

Oh ancient one what wisdom do you hold?

[t00thpasteface]

99% of callout posts are bullshit and just petty personal drama someone is escalating to get even on a grudge. do not engage with these, do not freelance as a cop

DNIs do not work. accept this. internalize that people you don't like will see your posts and engage with them. this is unavoidable and the sooner you make peace with it the freer your mind will be. block the freaks and don't sweat the small stuff

building a tight knit circle of fellow weirdos who vibe with your particular quirks and taste is infinitely more rewarding and sustainable than chasing the biggest numbers

don't respond to bad-faith arguments or bad takes; just block people, blacklist tags, filter post content, and move on. don't feed the trolls (or the bigots)

don't hate-follow

don't tag your hate (ex. if you're posting about how much you hate a ship, don't tag it as that ship, etc.)

don't feel obligated to keep following someone who posts stuff that upsets/depresses/angers/bores you just because you know them really well, or because you're mutuals, or because you used to like what they post. following is nothing personal and neither is unfollowing

op doesn't know you; avoid parasocial relationships

don't pick fights or reblog posts just to disagree/argue

spread joy and positivity in your circles

This is some of the best social media advice (and advice for being a human among humans generally) I've ever seen.

All of this. For people asking how I've survived here for over 12 years...

[am-i-the-asshole-official]

Highly suggest everyone turn this on; I've just been informed that it exists. It's under Blog settings > Visibility on desktop

[am-i-the-asshole-official]

Hang on, correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't there a whole thing a little bit ago about "support tumblr because we're against selling user data"? Surely their "licensed network of content and research partners" are paying Automattic for this data, which is obtained from users? Like I know it's not exactly the same as selling personal information like most sites do but this still leaves a NASTY taste in my mouth

[demigoat]

Not enough people supported them. I remember some time ago an employee/ former employee shared the figures for ad-free subscribers and they were depressingly low. So now Tumblr is likely using one of their only other viable money options

[am-i-the-asshole-official]

Pretty sure there are some options you should exhaust before you get to "sell our users' art, prose, and sensitive personal posts to AI companies"

[8pxl]

PSA: Tumblr/Wordpress is preparing to start selling our user data to Midjourney and OpenAI.

you have to MANUALLY opt out of it as well.

to opt out on desktop, click your blog ➡️ blog settings ➡️ scroll til you see visibility options and it’ll be the last option to toggle.

to opt out on mobile, click your blog ➡️ scroll then click visibility ➡️ toggle opt out option.

if you’ve already opted out of showing up in google searches, it’s preselected for you. but you also have to opt out for each blog you own separately, so if you’d like to prevent AI scraping your blog i’d really recommend taking the time to opt out. (source)
