Guidebook to the Marvel Cinematic Universe - Doctor Strange's cover by Marcos Martin.

I talk a lot about “you haven’t even met everyone who will love you yet” as a way to offer hope for the future. But let’s also mention…

There are so many things you have yet to enjoy! New songs. New movies. New shows. Maybe new hobbies, new games, and new interests.

There is still so much for you to experience. So much that can still bring you joy.

When you're just in a silly mood, and you're laughing at everything, and everything is already so stupid and funny, and then you get tickled? And it's the funniest feeling in the world and you laugh and laugh and laugh, and let go, and laugh at the fact that you're laughing? At the fact that there's this sensation that's funnier than the funniest joke you've ever heard? That all I have to do is wiggle my fingertips against your tummy or squeeze your sides, and you'll explode with laughter? And you give in to the ridiculous absurdity of everything? Isn't that a beautiful thing??

So I just saw a post by a random personal blog that said “don’t follow me if we never even had a conversation before” and?????? Not to be rude but literally what the fuck??????????

I’ve had people (non-pornbots) try to strike conversation out of nowhere in my DMs recently, and now I’m wondering if they were doing that because they wanted to follow me and thought they needed to interact first. I feel compelled to say, just in case, that it’s totally okay to follow this blog (or my side blog, for that matter) even if we’ve never talked before.

Also, I’m legit confused. Is this how follow culture works right now? It was worded like it’s common sense but is that really a thing?

Concept: "oh you're so cute I could just eat you up~!!" *Proceeds to nibble your neck and make nomming noises to make it that much more embarrassing and silly*

I became a doctor to save lives, not take them.

If you focus on patiently building genuine friendships based on more than simply a shared kink before meeting anyone for real, the bad apples always out themselves soon - even if they think they’re being all clever and playing the long game.

It can be very telling to put a boundary in place and just observe/evaluate a person’s response. Do they become angry and petulant? Do they keep their cool, but try to negotiate in a way that they frame as reasonable and compromising, but is actually just a calm refusal to be told “no” about something that’s important to you?

Beware both of these people - but most of all, beware the second person. They’ve already decided that they’re smart enough to manipulate and gaslight you without you getting wise. Don’t validate their hubris. Watch especially for:

- a sudden increase in cutesy, non-threatening emojis employed as pacifiers

- a long succession of “how about this?” questions that they’ll say are asked for reasons of clarity and knowing where the line is, but are actually designed to weaken your resolve and incrementally shift the goalposts

- messages hinting at the threat of cancelling the whole idea altogether if they don’t get the exact thing they want, at which point their bluff should be called every single time

Magic man but make him art nouveau

Hi, Tumblr. It’s Tumblr. We’re working on some things that we want to share with you. 

AI companies are acquiring content across the internet for a variety of purposes in all sorts of ways. There are currently very few regulations giving individuals control over how their content is used by AI platforms. Proposed regulations around the world, like the European Union’s AI Act, would give individuals more control over whether and how their content is utilized by this emerging technology. We support this right regardless of geographic location, so we’re releasing a toggle to opt out of sharing content from your public blogs with third parties, including AI platforms that use this content for model training. We’re also working with partners to ensure you have as much control as possible regarding what content is used.

Here are the important details:

We already discourage AI crawlers from gathering content from Tumblr and will continue to do so, save for those with which we partner. 

We want to represent all of you on Tumblr and ensure that protections are in place for how your content is used. We are committed to making sure our partners respect those decisions.

To opt out of sharing your public blogs’ content with third parties, visit each of your public blogs’ blog settings via the web interface and toggle on the “Prevent third-party sharing” option. 

For instructions on how to opt out using the latest version of the app, please visit this Help Center doc. 

Please note: If you’ve already chosen to discourage search crawling of your blog in your settings, we’ve automatically enabled the “Prevent third-party sharing” option.

If you have concerns, please read through the Help Center doc linked above and contact us via Support if you still have questions.
