OH MY GOD ON MOBILE WHEN YOU POST SOMETHING WITH THE TAG GONCHAROV IF GIVES YOU LITTLE CLOCK EMOJIS

Tumblrs queue feature is pretty cool. Even though I hit the daily post limit I can just add stuff to the queue and it'll post when I'm allowed to again.

… and trauma. but we don’t talk about that

it's not like you're going to remember this, anyway

PvP BLAZE IS (supposedly) live 04/20/2023

I think this is a really cool update, but an important thing to note is that:

* * * * LETTING OTHERS BLAZE YOUR POSTS WILL BE ON BY DEFAULT * * * *

It's a per-blog setting, so you can turn it off for your main and on for your sideblog(s) or v/v.

Even on a blog which has "let others blaze my posts" on, there will be a per-post toggle so that you can have a blog be blazeable but still post that kinda personal journal-y thing without needing to worry about some asshole paying $10 to make 2500 strangers see it (or whatever tumblr's rates are, i don't remember).

Also, if someone *does* blaze a post that you didn't want blazed, you have the opportunity to cancel the campaign at any time, even before the campaign starts generating impressions. So if you forget to tag something unblazeable, you're not helpless in the face of someone deciding to blaze it.

QUICK thing for the Major Holiday... haven't kept up since around 2019, but last I heard these two were doing 0k.

Time moves forward and only forward, relentless. Didn’t you learn last time? You can’t make it stop.

And when it has gone past, a sequel to Over & Through. Coming December 26-31.

Got an email to fill out a survey on the concept of tumblr Premium and related features, and while I'm assuming that I'm not supposed to talk about it too specifically in case some things mentioned in the survey aren't fully implemented, the features listed as possibilities sound pretty solid. Limit increases, monthly benefits (both for the user and as gifts for others), special badges and decorations, etc.

There were no features listed that are already available for free, so they're genuinely looking at offering new features for paid users rather than following in Xitter's footsteps and locking existing features behind a paywall. Likewise, nothing listed would be obtrusive to the current tumblr experience or unfairly favor a paid user over a free user any more than dropping a few bucks on a Blaze already "favors" the person being Blazed. (Which is up for debate, since that whole feature is literally "LOOK AT MY POST, BOY" and is one of the most tumblr things that tumblr has ever done.)

I was extremely leery going into the survey, because "premium" features these days are generally not premium at all, but I'm feeling very positive about the upcoming features now. Overall—and I say this as someone who has worked in webdev and digital marketing, used to pay for icons on LiveJournal for multiple RP accounts, currently pays for ad-free here, and has been doing beta testing for so long I once had the personal email addresses of both the founders of deviantART—it sounds genuinely good! Nothing anyone can't live without, but a good number of fun things that would actually be of interest to the tumblr userbase.

Now I'm just waiting to see how many of the features floated in the survey wind up in the final package, and how much that package is going to cost.

Beta Arceus

[Image ID: An artists interpretation of the beta Arceus sprite, facing right on a pale gradiented blue, pink, and white background. Its body, floating off the ground, is wholly white, but appearing to have dramatic shifts in colour action in response the the molten gold glowing ring with wispy spokes floating around its abdomen and the reflected blue light from above. It has fur billowing out into as,one like substance from its front legs and the back of its head, with a long tail composed of long, continuous strands of fur. Its eyes are glowing red rings. End ID]

Sorry this is a repost; I deleted the old post because I had fixed some things after uploading but already reblogged it on my art account, so i wanted to just... repost it from scratch. The modifications were pretty big so it was bothering me.

Edit: readmore doesn't work for some reason and I can't fix it, so that's cool

You're the concept of a man and of an object!

(an OC that I've been working on these days. It's a shapeshifter/doppelganger that is.... well lets just say that its dating life is a bit complicated. The caption is from Catharsis by AlicebanD, and more info about the story under the cut!)

Helian, he/him. Tailor-made to be well-liked and loved. His partner did not take the news of him being a shapeshifter well, to put it gently.

The closest the shapeshifter has to a "true form", though it doesn't really have one. Any form it takes is done on purpose. If asked to create a shape that represents its "baseline" best, this is what it would pick. But it doesn't enjoy being without identity. (It talks about itself in the third person, thats how little "self" it considers itself to have.)

Luna, she/her. The form she'll take throughout most of the story. She took the name, face and personality of a dead woman, at her husband's request...

Life is hard for a people-pleasing shapeshifter...

Happy 1st anniversary to Looking Glasses by @ferronickel :) (edit; whoops forgot to remove the space in the tag, sorry i know you've already seen it haha)
