People are calling women who read ‘spicy’ novels porn addicts on TikTok and when women responded “um. That’s not what addiction is.” People are going “the first symptom of addiction is denial” like okay buddy.

As @staff further refine the polls while they're rolling them out (still haven't gotten mine sadly), here's a suggestion of mine: Polls with a ten year time limit.
As of right now, it's impossible for polls to turn into long-running legendary posts. You can try, sure (see the bug race), but it's a week and then it's locked, fixed, done, and all that's left is for people to reminisce about that time there was a poll.
On the other hand, if a ten year poll gets popular, it can become part of Tumblr lore while still being updated. People can write passionate appeals for their vote and fight in the notes. Others can make graphs to show how the poll's majorities shift with each different US president or Taylor Swift album. People can make memes about "remember 2025, when option 3 was in the lead? That was a crazy time".
Why ten years, though, instead of a hundred or just no time limit? Because that way, the end becomes an event. People who voted in the poll when it was just a few hours old can watch the final countdown together, and there's a new point in Tumblr history: That day when we finally all agreed on the best option, and presumably also some important political stuff happened.
Now, granted, most ten year polls would never reach this level of notoriety. But it only takes a few polls like this to be worthwhile. Maybe this shouldn't be an option for users to select, but something the Tumblr website grants/pushes on you at random?
So, yeah. Ten year polls. They should be a thing.

Friendly reminder that in a truly sibling display of affection, the bat siblings MUST bully eachother (lovingly)
Jason: I call shotgun
Dick: no
Jason: I said it first!
Dick: I was here first
Jason: you’re going to make your brother, your once dead little brother, ride in the back? I knew you hated me dickhead. I knew it! Bet you wish I was dead!
Dick: if you keep talking like that I’ll just stuff you in trunk like a good corpse
Tim: *already sat in passengers seat*
Damian: *is behind drivers seat*
Dick and Jason: oh hell no

If you've ever been disappointed by dragonfruit, especially if you felt like it tasted like nothing, then I'm like 90% sure you had unripe dragonfruit, which tastes like nothing. There's a small window of time where it tastes amazing. You must have the patience of a hunter. Do not strike until your prey is at its most delicious

We've already talked about Harrow being the proverbial devout religious kid who lapses after enough cognitive dissonance between the dogma of the church & the culture of the congregation get to them
Now let's talk about Gideon being a common tragic case of a completely disinterested culturally Christian person ending up in an environment of a militant cult bc they have nowhere else to belong
