This FUCKING hellsite sometimes. Between my inconsistent check rate and the TOO MUCHNESS of everyone's everything, I somehow missed the whole thing about the fire. Like it started filtering in slowly? But the first couple times I saw you mention it I thought you were referencing something that happened in your childhood, not A MONTH AND A HALF ago and involved things like comas. I finally was like "wait a fucking minute" enough this morning to page a WAYS back in your blog to get what actually happened and saw the burn sleeve selfie you posted. I'm not sure how you made that shit look cute but kudos, damn. So I'm late, but I am very glad you are still here, appreciate your nonsense that much more because of it, and sincerely wish a swift and as close to complete a recovery as possible for you. <3

Oh yeah. We're still in paperwork hell trying to set up repairs to the house (and hoping it is less than the insurance pay out), and just got into long term temp housing a couple weeks ago. I'd been sleeping on a narrow, uncomfortable pleather hotel couch for a few weeks til then.

However the outpouring of support here has been kind of overwhelming and definitely had me in tears more than once. I honestly don't know what I did to deserve the kindness but I'm not sure we would have gotten by with enough for food and clothes without, of all sites, Tumblr.

This article trying to explain this site in the wake of the hilarious trolling of the checkmark thing might be the funniest thing I’ve read in a while:

Because, heh, this tracks:

#tumblr #staff #am I genuinely tempted? maybe #it’s both petty and funny they’ve really figured out their base huh #hellsite affectionate #also the crabs #important blue internet checkmark #i lol’d

Tumblr Rules for Redditors

Hello, fellow redditors! Many people are trying to tell you rules about how to Tumblr properly. Many of them are wrong, or assholes, or both. I am also an asshole but I’m going to not be one for a minute to give you some advice:

“Reblog this or you’re a bad person” and any variation on that is a violation of intergalactic law. Don’t do it. Also, refuse to comply if someone else does it.

Generally, people can see what you reblog, but cannot see what you ‘like’. A like may seem like an upvote, but it is much less significant than one, since it doesn’t affect visibility in the slightest. A like will be visible both to the OP of the thread, and to the person whose reblog you put the like on. Like promiscuously! It feels good to get likes and there’s no downside. (Unless you are a space alien AKA influencer.)

Tumblr nominally has the ability to browse global tags (e.g. seeing the entire site’s posts and reblogs tagged #superwholock or #reddit exodus) and to search the site for things. No one uses them and they don’t really work.

You are probably less surprised by this than denizens of literally any other website on the internet, but there’s no algorithm here. Chronological order only. (If you’re using the search or global tags, they might have an algorithm, but if they do, it doesn’t work. We don’t know because we don’t use them.)

Anyone can have absolutely any conversation in the notes of your post that they like. This is how the website works. You are allowed to complain about it, but don’t expect anyone to humor you.

Many people have ‘DNI’ lists in their blog descriptions. This means ‘do not interact’ and indicates that they don’t want you to message them, reblog from them, reblog any posts they are OP of, or even, sometimes, ‘like’ their posts. It is good manners to respect these, if you know they exist, but in normal use you probably won’t look at blog descriptions very often so it is entirely okay to violate them by accident. (When the lists get very long, it becomes impractical to check whether you violate them. Generally, just skip it. You probably don’t want to interact with those people anyway.)

Notes on posts you start will go to you no matter how many intervening hops there are on the reblog chain. If you get a post with an enormous amount of notes, this can get overwhelming. Whatever the current incarnation of Xkit (basically RES for Tumblr except we’ve switched names and maintainers seven times) is, will have a setting to deal with this. If that’s insufficient, the suggested course of action is to reblog your OP to your own blog so that you have a copy for posterity’s sake, and then delete the OP. This silences the notes.

If you and another user both follow each other, you are ‘mutuals’. This makes it much easier to have conversations with each other, which is ordinarily sort of hard since everything is purely chronological. Frequently your mutuals are your friends; if not yet true, they may become your friends.

When you reblog things, you can write words both in the word part and in the tags, Modern tumblr norms are to write long rambling tags in full sentences rather than put words in the main body. Do not that only the first four tags in the list can be searched on. Unlike some other norms, violating this one and putting your response in the body of the reblog is not particularly rude. The worst it does is make a reblog chain long. Probably don’t reblog things and just say “This.”, though.

If you want to search your blog, consider Siikr. Don’t overuse it, it’s one guy’s project.

Be verbose! This ain’t Twitter, no character limit. (Not even the really large character limit of a reddit comment.) Write a 3000-word story in a single reblog if you want, that sounds awesome. Use ‘read more’ if you do, though. Posts can be very long, one of our oldest memes is about this.

Infinite scroll is the default, but you can turn it off. Actually, check all the settings, many of them will improve your experience.

Everybody be excellent to each other!

new tumblr experience i do not enjoy: hitting the wrong answer by accident on a poll and then having to see it scroll by on your dash like 37 times over the next few days, like it’s mocking you every time for your failure to click the right bubble

I’m sorry but tumblr’s uniqueness and value ONLY comes from reblogging. Like, apart from Twitter, where the creations aren’t as variable, the rest of it: Facebook, Instagram, TikTok is mostly focused on personal creation. On individuality. But tumblr is created to be shared, to reblog, that’s the only way you can use this site really. Tumblr is more about community than individuality, and that is a good thing.

Is it just me, or has Tumblr lost some of it's nastiest people? It feels like the quality of anon hate has dropped across the board, really.

i’ve been plowing through the huge pot of potato leek soup i made on saturday, and i served myself a huge bowl of it smothered in chives and parmesan cheese, and as i was preparing to dig in all i could think was that I USED MY EMERGENCY CHEESE. THIS WAS A CHEESE EMERGENCY AND I DEFEATED IT WITH PARMESAN! WONDER WOMAN WOULD BE SO PROUD OF ME!
