i am once again reminding people that shutting up and running a quick search for 'meaning of [word you don't recognise]' is free. it will almost certainly give you the information that you need, and as a bonus, it will often prevent you from looking like a walnut-brained asshole.

One of my husband’s students keeps texting him questions. Basic ones. So I introduced my husband to the concept of LMGTFY and he cracked up. He’s considering using it next time, but, he says, at least the kid’s studying. Seriously though, by the time you’re in college, you should have figured out googling.

Just wondering, is there any way you can put in a search engine so we can look through your blog for past entries? (But thanks again for reblogging all this stuff when somebody asks about it!)

Tumblr allows you to search any blog already; all you have to do is type [blogurl].tumblr.com/search/[search-term]. That’ll automatically search within posts as well as tags. For example, I could search for mentions of Tom on this blog with thejakeformerlyknownasprince.tumblr.com/search/tom-berenson

I will continue to look into having a literal box for searching, but I’m not hopeful. It’s gotten harder to customize blogs as Tumblr has cycled through owners. I’ve added half a dozen custom HTMLs for search boxes, only to have them not populate at best or annihilate my entire theme at worst. If anyone has used a flexible, up-to-date HTML to add a search box to a custom theme at any point in the last year, reblog/reply and please let me know where you found it.

For now, however, I recommend just adding /search/ to the end of the URL.

How to Adult: "Help, my friend has a mental illness!” edition

If any of the people you care about have a known mental illness, research the mental illness. I don’t mean write an essay, ofc, but, like, if you just pretend they’re not mentally ill until given reason to acknowledge otherwise… That’s called being a bad friend.

1) Research their symptoms. 2) Find what to expect. 3) Learn how you can help during any related crises.

It literally takes <10 minutes on Google.

‘Cuz if you love someone, as in, you genuinely give more than two shits about their existence, then is 10 minutes of researching how to help them really that much of a chore?
