I really do need to emphasize. I am trying my best to bring vital information/context to information to the dashboard, where I have the most influence, but I need to check in and make sure I am not anyone's sole lens into what is happening in Palestine.
I am not an expert. Tumblr is not a good place for CURRENT and timely news. And also... I'm not tuned in all the time, I'm not always fact checking as much as I should be, I'm not speaking up for every piece of information.
Please, please, PLEASE... know I am giving you good information but I/tumblr should be like... 10th place in terms of where you go for news. I am doing my best to post good information but I am not trained in this. Everyone is fallible but I am much, much more likely to be fallible than people on the ground, people with actual connections to Palestine, people whose entire job is reporting on this, contextualizing this.
It actually makes me quite uncomfortable when it becomes clear to me that some of y'all aren't really getting information anyone where else but my blog. Or you're just accepting anything you see on your dash.
A couple days ago I saw someone reblog a post that as like "The death count isn't going up as quickly because Israel has killed so many people, there's so few people left that they just can't die in large numbers anymore." FUCKING INSANE the lack of critical thinking going into saying that and spreading that. Like there are over 2 million people alive (and suffering) right now. Saying shit like that is not helpful, it is not true, it is not kind.
But that's the quality level we have on tumblr right now.
So, please, do not rely on me or anyone else on this website unless they are giving you VERY GOOD reason to true their perspective. Check out their sources if they provide them.
I'm not being humble right now. I am not being shy or "aw shucks" about my perspective. I am saying do better than me. I should be a fucking stepping stone to legitimate sources. Not the well you go to every day.
Please, I am begging you do better.

literally cannot comprehend the people saying "i'll get used to it" i nearly had a panic attack looking at it because it's so cluttered. tumblr's layout was so simple and calm before that this change has made me realize my problems with twitter affecting my mental health had more going on than just the content and the trending topics bar

as a fellow sevenmancer, what is your opinion on soft violence so far 👀
Since seven is on the forefront of my mind right now for letter reasons imma finally answer this lolol and i’m gonna tag @777greywolf bc they asked me about this for ocs for this as well and i can’t talk in short paragraphs SJSJSJ as you will see under this cut
Personally i love soft violence and i’m excited for the drama and the shenanigans!! i like that they don’t like mc and give them a hard time (it’ll make the friendship more satisfying tbh when they realize their judgements were unfair lmaoooo) I also just love characters that are loyal like that?? like regardless of how seven retold events whether they were biased or not their friends have their back and try to make sev feel comfy and happy!! idk i just can’t wait to get to be friends with them in game lolol
As for my MC Octavia uhhh if say they’re cautious?? As a knee jerk reaction Octavia wants to stay away from all of them like “those are sevens bandmates and i should just treat them as extensions of seven” basically. Rather than as individuals which Octavia will have a hard time doing. Unlike Sev, Octavia is a very honest person and has a hard time holding grudges in general esp if they people haven’t done anything personally to them. So while Octavia may participate in some passive aggressive and aggressive aggressive behaviors toward them in the beginning lmaooo it won’t last very long. Octavia is a very give what you get person most of the time, but being hostile is exhausting. Looking for offense in every word and action just isn’t in Octavia like that, and they just joke a lot and idk they’re just pretty affable. Unless Soft Violence was 100% bent on making Octavia hate them 100% of the time they’re around her Octavia could never maintain that kind of mindset lol.
TLDR: Octavia’s first impressions is: absolutely not. but like give it a week or two and they’re just gonna be like “oh are we still like doin that mean thing to each other? ok.”
Abel and Chrissy though. They are in the infamous universe but they don’t have a relationship to seven they’re octavia’s friends they made post breakup so basically they are to seven as soft violence is to octavia lolol. Basically Abel is very loyal to a fault he’s very “the enemy of my friend is my enemy.” and it’s very hard to undo his opinion once it’s made and then chrissy is also kinda like abel?? but less extreme. Basically chrissy is chill and cordial but wary and Does Not Forget. Very “Chrissy will remember this” SJSJJSJA So Abel is very much “fuck SV all my homies hate SV (they don’t he’s just dedicated)” and Chrissy is smiling! Chrissy is chill! But she’s also watching 🙂. Closely.
Thank you for the ask!!<3333 i’m sorry i’m so slow lmaooo

the disproportionate amount of pro e///d content I come across by sheer accident on this site or that gets recommended to me on here despite having nothing on my blog, in my tags, or in my search history even mildly related to the terms used that would have an algorithm show me that content is fucking insane actually. and filtering the terms does nothing because people keep coming up with new tags to circumvent the ones they use that keep getting banned. so why the fuck is tumblr pushing this shit to the front page??? or in ANYONE's fyp????

My mom, two days off a hemorrhagic stroke: It’s frustrating because I keep forgetting where the correct buttons are and the screen makes my headache worse, but I did manage to send six work emails this morning, arranged a discussion on the website redesign, moved that talk with the associate dean about my job title to Zoom--
