Please come be a pervert in my DM’s it’s amazing HOWEVER do note I won’t always be available to play, and for gods sake don’t be an ass off the bat yknow? If you wanna be that later tell me and we can arrange something but if you’re coming in all hot with the insults it’s almost never as hot as you think it is, so like slow ya roll and establish who you are first yeah? Feel free to send spirals use my triggers or send me nudes really of any kind (especially dick pics) thay’s fair game tho

Some of you didn’t rewind your movies before returning them to Blockbuster and it shows.

Respect Content Creators:

I’m going to get on my soap box a minute. I’ve received a number of asks/requests that seem more like demands. No greeting, no cute little “hi I love your work” just “write this”.

Have to tell you, I don’t like it. I don’t appreciate it. I am not a machine, I am not just some computer program ready to churn out hours of entertainment for you at will.

There has long been this sense of complete lack of respect or appreciation for those that dedicate HOURS and DAYS to providing you with free entertainment. Writers, artists, gif makers, all take their personal time to create something. Often with very little true feedback. Or even a reblog.

If you cannot even try to observe the basic niceties of communication, why should I spend my time creating something you want? Granted, these aren’t hostile, but they are rude. Please have respect for creators and treat them as more than machines.

Any and all messages that are just basic demands for my time and energy will be deleted.

Hello there ! I love watching your videos & they always bring a smile to my face ! I moved to Tumblr for this quality content ! You are one of my favourite youtubers!

Here is my question for you :

Are there any Tumblr etiquettes? If so , then what are those ?

Also

Hmm, not sure if there are many unspoken etiquette rules that are specific to Tumblr. :P I feel like general basic etiquette applies.

When you tag someone else's blog (@ blogname), you're basically calling for that person's attention, or publically putting a spotlight on them, so make sure you have a good reason for it. Maybe you're giving credit to an artist who inspired you, and you made fanart with their characters, or in their style, or maybe you collabed with them. That's cool. :)

What's less cool is tagging that blog and saying mean / rude things about them, lying about them and ruining their reputation, or directing others to go to that blog and send them hate. Whether or not you think the hate is deserved, you shouldn't spread it around like that. :(

HEY MOVIE GOERS

Star Wars is coming up soon. My theater (where I work) is projected to have a thousand people come in opening night. This number is likely to rise and also hold all weekend. 

We have ten minutes between shows to clean the theater. In newer places, the seats are leather recliners. We have to wipe those down after every show, on top of trash and sweeping. 

Where am I going with this?

CLEAN UP AFTER YOURSELVES, PLEASE. People working these shows are ALREADY going to be overworked, please don’t add to that workload.

Ask before assuming the worst.  Please.  Not everyone who poorly words things is evil personified.

FYI…

This is not the way to get me to update a fic.

Ways to get me to update:

1. Nice comments on ao3 2. Reblogs on Tumblr 3. Kudos on ao3 4. Likes on Tumblr 5. Nice asks letting me know you enjoyed a fic 6. Basically anything but the asks screenshotted above.

Y'all have a good one. I’ll update it when I can. ❤❤❤

PSA

if you're going to make a list of accounts to block, especially accounts you are calling nsfw, make sure to actually check said accounts. I falsely got put on one of these lists, and I want people to know that if you're going to post something like that, make sure theres proof of what you're accusing them of.
