so i have a mildly popular “reblog and put in in the tags” post going around and its. very clear how many people don’t know how to interact with a tumblr post

so, first of all, tumblr’s culture has changed a lot in the past couple years. there’s a genuine community effort to not start any drama, and ironically a lot of the current hostility is an effort to keep things calm. there’s also a change in how people interact with posts, so if you haven’t been here in a while please skip down to the tags/replies/reblog with text section.

for newcomers: you should be reblogging posts about as liberally as you would like something on twitter. if you only like stuff, people will think you are rude/a bot. you’ve probably heard people talk about “cultivating your dash,” and thats because this platform is 100% centered around your dashboard. trending matters less, unfollowing and blocking in order to shape your dash into it’s best form is widely accepted, the majority of the content you’ll find and interact with will be because of your dash, and the only way to put things on your dash is to reblog them. tumblr users are deeply distrustful of algorithms and have largely turned off the “see posts your friends have liked” function (i recommend you also turn of the various algorithms in settings → general settings → dashboard preferences).

so, once you’ve reblogged a post, there’s three ways to add content to it. the tags, replies, and reblogging with text. all of them have different connotations

the tags: an inside voice. originally they were meant for organizing your blog (and they’re still used for this), but they’ve also morphed into a way to share thoughts that aren’t funny/insightful enough for non-followers to be interested in. when in doubt, put your comment in the tags

replies: basically talking to your friends in class. your followers have no way of finding your replies (they don’t pop up on the dash, nobody gets notified except for the original poster) so chances are, only the person who made the post is gonna see your comment. it’s for quick one-offs that you’re okay with other people overhearing, but really is only made for one person. they’re like a public dm

reblog with text: an outside voice. you’re getting up on a stage in town square and entertaining people. make sure it’s funny or insightful— bottom line, add something new to the conversation. you should use this the least

general rules of thumb: 

when in doubt, reblog. people will judge you if your blog is only personal posts and you only interact with other content by liking it.  

the only things people will judge you for reblogging are personal vent posts. leave a like to give a little virtual hug

if a post is asking about your personality/opinions (i.e: tell me what’s the last tv show you watched, that kind of thing) put it in the tags 

also if you see a nice edit, gifset, or art, reblog and say something nice in the tags! it’s that nice sweet spot of common enough that no one will notice but uncommon enough to make the artist’s day

Eris Morn in DESTINY 2: SHADOWKEEP.

Recently I reached lvl 28 (I think) reputation with Fynch. And it prompted a short dialogue. How he thought exploring the world felt lonely and isolated. He wanted to belong somewhere and why he joined the hive.

Broke my heart- I wanna adopt him, but as THE guardian we do a lotta dangerous stuff. It wouldn’t be safe for Fynch to come with us. So I was thinking of someone who could adopt Fynch. And Immediately I thought of Eris Morn.

I think they’d be good for each other. They both got green eyes cuz of the hive lol. And I think Fynch’s personality will do good for Eris, especially since she’s pretty much alone on the moon a lot. He’s not over the top, so I don’t think his personality would bother Eris. But it’s still more positive than being surrounded by phantoms.

They may not be each other’s guardian/ ghost but they’d be good friends.

finishing gideon the ninth and then finally starting to catch up on season 2 of where the stars fell is truly filling the niche need of “lesbians who fought and tore at each other like no one else could but now are connected by some ineffable bond”
