THIS ONE FUCKING WORKS. REBLOG IT.

this for real fucking works

Picture this, you're stressed out because Covid and climate change finds you out of a job and now you can't pay for dental work so as you listen to the hold music to the dental clinic to cancel your wisdom teeth surgery you log into tumblr to calm your nerves only to be greeted by a Destiel meme informing you that the word flashing is banned and you realise fellow tumblr users can't use a warning for post that could trigger your epilepsy. Imagine this, you're now afraid and there's nothing you can do, no tag to filter out, no warning to safe you.

the phrase ‘pulsing lights’ has been suggested as a workaround.  I know I will be using it. Your safety is important to me.

!!!!! I don't care if you've already rebloged this, reblog again and get the phrase 'pulsing lights' on blast to save an epileptic's life. This is a serious matter and should be brought to staff and apples attention !!!!!

Holy shit guys, I wasn't expecting this to blow up, over 7.5k notes in less than 12hrs. I wish I could've worded it better and not some angry self-indulgent rant when I originally posted it but thankfully I've gotten so many helpful comments/tags from so many users on here.

As frustrating as it is to have to filter out many tags instead of just one or two specific tags, I have been able to find different work arounds from the wonderful ppl who have rebloged my original post. Here are some I've seen meantioned a few times.

Strobe alert

Eye strain

Eyestrain

Strobing lights

Epilepsy warning

Strobe lights

Also, and I haven't really fact check this for obvious reasons, but adding a period (.) at the end off the work "flashing" is a good work around too.

Please do not use 'epilepsy' tag as a warning, for epileptics use that tag to communicate about their own health within the epileptic community.

I am suddenly aware that this joke only really makes sense if you know ASL so

20: hold up your thumb and index finger, then press the two together like little bird mouth

22: make peace sign, bounce from left to right

for those who are struggling with having and finding purpose: maybe, for now, your purpose is waking up in the morning and taking on the day ahead. maybe your purpose is continuing to live despite it all.

here’s your reminder to let yourself create. not create ‘well’, just create. draw badly. write shitty poems. sing stupid songs. make whatever you want & have a great time doing it. that’s what creation is for. it’s self expression, not perfection

You’re most powerful when you honor your own rhythm. If your circadian rhythm is nocturnal, don’t follow those “waking up at 4 am changed my life” routines because they’re not for you. If you function best when you focus on a single task, single job, single goal, then working half a dozen sidehustles may not be for you. Honor your own rhythm, work with it instead of against it, and you will achieve so much more than if you blindly follow what’s considered “correct” by social conventions of the time.

People who think this planet was created for humans to be ours are so wild to me

70% of the planets surface is undrinkable uninhabitable death water that sharks love. How is that a human-centric design.

the earth was created for various types of crabs
