My friend made a super cool language guessing game that is now fully functional!

https://langle.uk/

The database has a lot of minority languages (especially in level 3) and if you don’t guess correctly, you get a hint based on linguistic relatedness.

#this is genuine btw #not some weird hacked post #he's just coded it ground up and i told him not to do blue because of twitter/tumblr/fb/etc #but evidently twitter blue is now (mostly) gone so it's less of an issue #linguistics

I love newbies in dead fandoms. Yesterday I saw someone say “I love how small and quiet this fandom is. I hope it never gets big and popular” and I felt like I was a middle aged new yorker ten years after the apocalypse seeing a teenager say “I love this small town, I hope it never grows into a city.” Darling I love your enthusiasm and outlook on life but there used to be skyscrapers here.

#chit chat #this is genuine btw #i am haunted by memories of the wars #i was there when the Big Things happened #and here you are. untainted by the past.#simply reveling in the relics we have left behind.#come visit my fire child #tell me what you think of this ship art from the Before Times

Actually really like how each of the versions has one that's just the tiniest bit selfish, a smudge self centered and slightly uncaring for others (Nine left the resistance at the nonexistent mercy of the Council (twice), Dread was willing (and still probably is) to abandon his crew because of a shiny blue rock and Thorn was consciously letting her friends starve to death)

#sonic prime #this is genuine btw #love it when theyre fucked up and so not like themselves #like each of those og characters would never do or even think of that #miles nine prower #nine the fox #knuckles the dread #thorn rose #silly brainworms

Wow our anxiety is really bad (we convinced ourselves we were trapped in a time loop for at least 5 minutes before snapping out of it).

Tumblr Tips

With new users coming and apparently actually following me, I figured I'd may as well make a master post of "Tumblr Tips" and "Tips for new users and returning users" posts I have been reblogging lately.

Edit: make sure to check my original version of this post, apparently the read more option no longer redirects people to the original full post from reblogs, so you won't see the additions. I've linked it in comments

This post was made when Twitter Refugees flooded tumblr, so it's mostly targeted to them. However!! Reddit immigrants will get a lot of use from it too! I'll be adding reddit specific stuff too as I find them. For now, here is the best and clearest "tips for reddit immigrants" post I've found. Welcome to tumblr

Can't believe I need this category; Tumblr Safety Tips:

Don't List Minor Status

Lurk Before You Post - my comment: Learn the site and culture before you post, you're less likely to poke a beehive that way

Listen to this or you will be mocked by locals

Don't give out your real name! + The benefits of primary and secondary blogs

Privacy: make your likes and follows private

A common scam going around - be careful! It'll pray on your kindness in your ask inbox

For Starting Out:

Starting info for Twitter Refugees

A handy guide for starting up - with diagrams!

How Not To Be Blocked By Every Tumblr User

SERIOUSLY. PLEASE GET A PROFILE PICTURE.

Why Locals Block Empty Blogs

Free Profile pictures if you're out of ideas: [x]

Etiquette - or shit that annoys locals to hell and back if you ignore these:

Don't censor shit - it's cringe and annoying and can be harmful

SERIOUSLY DONT CENSOR SHIT

bitesyoubitesyoubitesyou REBLOG SHIT

Abuse the tags but don't clog the tags - unrelated info tags are not cool

Tips to Improve Your Experience:

Terminology (Blorbo, plinko, some classic jokes, etc)

More terminology: Poor little meow meow vs blorbo

Different methods of interaction explained - reblogs, asks, DMs, replies, etc

XKit to improve your experience

Themes! Make your blog look great

Also you can change the site colour palette - I like a soft blue, some like black, some white, but there's more!!

Tumblr Tags: Don't Use Quotations "like this"

Remember; it's your blog

How to post mature (Eg: sexual) content

Folk Stories

Blocking:

Block without hesitation, for any reason

It's integral to curating your online experience

An example of reasons to block someone - yes your reason can be silly. I've blocked people for posting x reader fics, for shipping my notp, because i didn't like their AU. Not because I don't like them, or have anything against them, I just hate x reader fics in general, or didn't want to see my notp, or I just got tired of seeing their posts in a fandom tag. Rather than demanding they change, I changed how my tag looks to me. And that is responsible blocking. I also block racists, terfs, homophobes, etc. I blocked someone who was mean to me in replies. Do whatever to make your online experience good.

Misc:

FOR RETURNING USERS! We have new things!

Added to the above, here are some things people in the notes have added: Comments are a thing, clarification on tag filtering, seriously follow @/staff and @/changes

To concerned twitter artist refugees

Also! You can shorten posts like I have by adding a "read more" option. On website, make a new line and click the squiggly lone button. On mobile, type :readmore: then hit enter! Everything after that will be hidden under a nifty button. I recommend doing it! Especially for writing longer pieces!

How Tumblr Treats Celebrities and Popular blogs (If you're an influencer, prepare for hell. You'll get chased off if you try that here)

Tumblr Holiday - November Fifth Explanation

#shay posts #to be updated as I find things to add #twitter #tumblr #tumblr culture #maybe ill add a history and lore section #elon musk #twitter migration #new tumblr users #new to tumblr #welcome to tumblr #starting out on tumblr #this is genuine btw #some of these have joking tones or whatnot but i genuinely think everything herr is helpful

i agree with your system responsibility post on a general level, but to say it is "your self" that is doing it is not correct for all systems. i do wonder what you define "self" as, because every "self" in a system is a part or person, but you as a collective whole, whether adding up to singular or multiple, do need to have responsibility for hte system and body. it is your system and your body too.

I define “self” as multiple things. In the case of that post, your “self” is “the thing people collectively see as You — the singular entity that is Your Body walking around.”

There is no system, regardless of how they conceptualize themselves, that has successfully mitosised their body into multiple selves.
