Just a totally normal human just liking whatever

A small PSA to all those new to dealing with the porn bots that Tumblr now has a fresh wave of – I understand that when you go to report them, you want to report them as "[containing] sexually explicit material", but don't do that. Report them as spam instead.

These are spam bots flooding tags and the website in general with spam links. They often do not have anything sexually explicit on their blog (although they often have implicit material). Plus, these two reports get very different results. Reporting explicit material gets the bot slapped behind an 18+ wall, so minors can't check if they're a bot or not. Reporting spam gets the bot taken down.

Remember, folks: when dealing with a bot, report spam, not smut!

after watching elon musk destroy twitter (a shitty but INCREDIBLY STABLE website) in a month, none of us should ever experience imposter syndrome again

saw that post about someone joining tumblr with their actual full name and it gave me the shudders

DO NOT DO THIS, new people!

this is the anonymous website: bosses and relatives and real life don't follow you here

if you have a business or are a "creator" or whatever, you can just go by the business name or your artist tag or your nomme de plume if you must

we are not normalizing using this site like f*cebook!

learn to interact as an amorphous collective of preferences and conceits that people associate visually only with the image of your icon like the rest of us

SO mean that i have to make content of my own ocs. cruel that i can't just beam what's in my brain onto paper or something

Lol, me trying to make a video game…. Why can’t it just make itself!

hey. the celebrities and corporations are going to try tumblr. you may want to drive them off the site, or find them amusing, ie “well THIS one can stay.” they may try to engage with the culture. they may do their research. DO NOT ENGAGE. do not bother. don’t fucking acknowledge them. don’t mess with their heads. don’t reply to them as a bit. let them think this site is a lost cause. let them fizzle out and die

i made a post similar to this that has been gaining traction, so i figured i should share this more insightful one as well (permission was received to post)

for the record, the creator of the mandela catalogue shared this as well

(tags for traction)

Id like to officially welcome the UK into the “our government is falling apart” gang. There is no catering but someone did start a bonfire in the corner.
