#Facebook shenanigans

[mbrainspaz]

people might be like "you waste like 4 hours a day scrolling tumblr and sometimes tiktok, why do you hate reels so much?"

well ya see, reels™™™ from "meta™" are a collection of completely uncultivated mindless gibberish content infested with rage bait ghouls that's constantly being thrust into my face on two platforms where I have worked for years to cultivate my experiences. On instagram I followed only artists I liked in order to see their art. On facebook I wanted to see posts from people I actually know, and nothing else. Meta hates that because I'm not CONSUMING enough CONTENT. Not clicking enough Links. Not interacting with enough brandsss.

In barges Reels with its endless stream of drivel about random bullshit like funny horse videos and celebrity drama. Do I watch videos like that on tiktok? Absolutely, and the crucial difference is that I went to tiktok and intentionally cultivated an algorithm that would give me content that I wanted to see when and where I wanted to see it. I wasn't tricked into going down a braindead video funnel by clickbait. I continuously and consciously cultivate my tiktok algorithm with a reasonable degree of success. Meanwhile Reels is over on the sidelines sobbing, begging me to click just ONE VIDEO PLEASE GODS JUST CLICK ONE! I refuse to be suckered in to watching some hour long rage bait video about ice cream in a toilet like 45 million other idiots. Like my aunt from Indiana who had to let the world know that she knows not to eat ice cream out of a toilet.

I wish I could set Reels™ on fire and feed it to wild dogs.

I love how I wasn't even insulting him, or men for that metter, I was just stating a fact. I doubt Creig would write something similar to a man doing something with his appearance that he didn't like 🤔

Why do so many men think women's world revolves around them? 🤣

I’m on a couple Facebook groups where people can ask veterinarians questions and only vets are allowed to answer

I find this sort of resource to be super helpful because I can use the search function if I’m ever curious about some super specific thing.

However people are dumb. People are so dumb. There are so many posts that are like “my cat got mauled by a dog. What should I do?” And they’ll attach a photo of a cat missing huge chunks of flesh.

“You need to go to the vet.”

Or “I didn’t realize how bad my dogs teeth are. What should I do?” And the photo is of a dog’s mouth absolutely crusted in plaque with a tooth visibly broken.

“Go to the vet.”

“My 5 pound yorkie was just bitten by a copperhead snake. Can I just give them benedryl?”

“Go to the ER vet.”

Please. For the love of god, PLEASE take your animals who are clearly in distress to the medical professionals. I get that it can be expensive but there are often low cost clinics to help with people who are struggling financially. I’ve taken stray cats to the humane society clinics and it’s much cheaper but you do need to be very patient because you’ll have to wait to be seen. But please don’t think your dog that was run over by a car can be fixed by you giving Tylenol at home. 😳 (also don’t give animals Tylenol. That’s a terrible idea.)

I guess I'm not invited to Atlanta after all boo

[angelofsmalldeath-codeine]

Does anyone know what happened to linzels-blog? I went to re-read ‘Delta Palms Tropical Resort’ and ‘Just A Number’ and the whole blog is gone.

It is sad to see so many good blogs being completely erased from tumblr.

*post about another Palestinian woman being gunned down by the IOF* 2 seconds later *post from my middle class white christian aunt from Arkansas saying she doesn't want to talk politics but her heart is breaking for 'families being torn apart.'* Girl say 'immigrants' and 'deported' in the same sentence I double dog dare you. See how fast your friend count drops.

Summary: There are many nexus points in the multiverse and Facebook was one of those points that Torchwood and SHIELD have dealt with over the years

I should probably promote my fanfics when I post them so here's the new one. This is basically archiving stuff I wrote on Facebook many many years ago that I didn't want to lose.

The problem with both my parents coming from families with predominantly sisters, is that I grew up being told that adult brothers don't talk to their sisters and won't give them the time of day. Not the most encouraging message given I have 6 brothers. So I do get unreasonably please when my 20 year old brother decides 'you know what, I'm gonna tell my big sister about this' like really 🥹

🛰️I got cancelled off quotev. Went to discord but then people hated the updates and also I had too much social anxiety, so I moved to reddit but then fuck spez or whatever and the third party apps shit, so I came to tumblr, and apparently everyone on tumblr hates tumblr? I’ve been avoiding Twitter and Facebook because they suck but is there any social media that is not hated but also lets me meet people???

What happened?

I mean- first of all, I’m sceptical of how much of this is true. partly because the whole thing sounds unbelievable, partly because it’s Jordana and Chris and they’re exactly the kind of people who’d tell a lie like this for attention. but then there’s the witnesses…

arc. let me get to the point. here’s what we know is true. last night in Seafolk, an unidentified Pokémon - what we assume is a Pokémon, anyway - was spotted fleeing a hotel and running into the surrounding forest. shortly afterwards, the entirety of Poni Island experienced incredibly thick fog which lasted throughout the night, only dissipating in the early hours of the morning. I haven’t seen any pictures of the ‘Pokemon’, but based on witness reports it was… really fucking freaky. The popular theory at the moment is that it was a new kind of Ultra Beast - especially since the locals say the fog might have been the doing of a ‘Tapu Fini’? whatever that is - which has everyone panicking about ultra wormholes and that.

now the less reliable part. so I have this friend, Alec (he’s in a coma right now, don’t ask), and his parents - Jordana and Chris - are right pricks. They were on holiday in Seafolk yesterday and witnessed the event. But they claim that this - ‘Ultra Beast’, or whatever it is - had disguised itself as their dead child (aka my mate’s dead sibling). so you know - fucked up if true. but it might not be true.

either way I guess it was a pretty nasty thing for them to experience? I don’t feel sorry for them. More sorry for the others in Seafolk at the time.

[tevanbuckley]

decided to go look at the facebook comments, and as reported they're not happy over there either lmfao.

if this really wasn't some network shenanigans then what is tim actually on? like, the man pulled off the impossible, he got a coming out arc for a main character 7 seasons in and tied it into a relationship that was popular and well liked both by fandom and the GA, and we're just throwing that away for nothing.

some more receipts under the cut for anyone interested.

How to avoid being spoiled with ST members' identities

A not so short guide for tumblr newcomers

Hello new fans and (probably) tiktok refugees! This is a guide on how to enjoy sleep token online without being spoiled and also, a guide on how not to be a twat at the same time.

It is rather long, but please give it a chance. If not for you, then for other people who do not want to be spoiled.

I was thinking about making a reminder post about it for ages and recent post from @zelink-stan02 inspired me to make it sooner!

Tumblr is one of not many places online where the chances of you getting jumpscared with the guys' faces and names are minimal. You're not completely safe here, but it's still way better than on other platforms. And a lot of users try to keep it that way.

So, the basics for people who want to avoid spoilers online!

No twitter. That is a place of no honour. No exceptions. Nothing good ever comes from ST twitter. Also i am not calling it x.

Tiktok is also not safe. But most of you probably know that.

Pinterest is a super quick way to see all their faces.

Idk about facebook, but i bet there are morons commenting with their legal names there too. Like on twitter.

Googling is very tricky. Image results will most likely show you their faces among 20 first photos and if you do google them. Well. The main search used to show the names as suggestions up here before; I'm glad to see that for now this is fixed:

BUT LO AND BEHOLD. Pictures tab gives you a treat (derogatory) of a full vessel's name RIGHT THERE:

First suggestion. They're not even trying. So yeah, googling is very tricky.

I didn't scroll further to the right, but i bet ii's name is there too. (Their names are spoiled most often, cause they're writing the songs.)

7. If you look for the lyrics, google sometimes shows vessel and ii's legal names in songwriters' credits. I haven't seen it recently, but it doesn't mean you won't see [redacted] instead of "Vessel 1" and so on in the credits. Try not to scroll too far when checking the lyrics. I think Apple music shows their names in lyics all the time, someone correct me if I'm wrong though.

FORTUNATELY,

if you want pictures, band info, older rituals' shenanigans etc. etc., we have real mvp's here on tumblr!

@sleepanonymous has it all. Including an archive of band-related stuff and also older (mostly) vessel's stuff without any names or faces revealed. Just older songs, if you're curious! Sleep Anon has a neat google drive archive too. Please check the tags and other links in their pinned post!

We also have another pillar of our community here, @thesleeptokenarchive, who shares older rituals' details, song release dates and many other important information and dates.

My dear friend @a-s-levynn created this beautiful archive with band pictures for people who want to find that very specific picture without having their faces spoiled. Behold, the Sleep Token Reference Archive (STRA). Perfect for artists, but not only!

Beautiful people @kaddyssammlung, @vulcanette and @chaosandchaos are posting cool band photos they find regularly. Others too, but these three are the most active! We're also lucky to have @hecetas here, posting their original photos of the band (and not only!)

Also, The Choir is not anonymous. The band itself shared their actual name, Espera, and the ladies are not faceless. It was their decision, band supported it, so you don't need to worry to keep them anonymous.

Last but not least! How not to be a twat in the sleep token fandom space on tumblr:

Do not tag any band-related stuff with their names or older projects' names.

Do not post photos of their faces and tag it as the band or band members.

If you want to sceam about the love you have for that one older Vessel's project, the not solo one, you can do it here: @wings-of-clay

If you are a curious being and face/names reveals don't mean much to you, you can always scream about their past projects with your closest friends in the DMs. Or ask literally anyone here if they want to talk about those things without revealing those things' names publicly. Most of us have their faces and names spoiled anyway. But trust me, you don't need to put any names for us to understand what you mean.

Not exactly a tumblr thing, but! One of the band members streams on twitch. It is an unspoken rule to NOT mention anything band-related in the chat. No "worship", no band name, other members' names, nothing. He wants to keep those things separate. You get blocked there or he stops streaming for everyone if you're too pushy.

And remember folks, digging too much into their personal lives guarantees a court case against you!

I'm not joking. There is a person who is going to face charges for being way too parasocial and stalker-y about them. Do not be like that person. This applies to all public figures, not only sleep token. But some people take anonymity as a challenge to dig even deeper for all their info.

Last, but not least! I have the names spoiled and i don't mind talking about old projects and stuff. So I'm here for you if you want to google something, but are afraid of a face reveal, or if you just wanna talk about the older stuff (tho i admit, i don't know much about previous bands/projects of all of them). However, I will not be engaging in anything related to their private lives or families and I will block you on spot if you mention anything like this to me.
