This is your permission to block that person!
There is no stigma attached to blocking people on tumblr. I promise.
Listen, I promise you. You can just block them.
I have blocked someone because I donā€™t like their art style. Their art constantly shows up in a fandom tag I follow; so I blocked that user.
Someone I follow reblogs from someone I donā€™t want to see on my dash so I put their entire URL in my filtered terms/ blacklist.
There was an aesthetic blogger in a tag I frequent and I didnā€™t want their collages/ mood boards to clog up my search results. So I blocked them.
I promise you, you are allowed to filter out and/ or block people.
People donā€™t need to be bad, donā€™t need to be annoying, donā€™t need to ā€œdeserveā€ getting blocked.
You are allowed to block people for any reason whatsoever; including no reason at all.

In case it wasn't clear:
Yes. Even as a proshipper, I firmly believe every single person creating content that has the potential to be unpleasant, triggering or upsetting should be responsible for making sure it can't be seen as much as they have the right to spaces where it can be seen.
It is your personal choice not to bother with things like tags or applying content markers.
But then you lose the right to be angry or upset when people complain about being exposed to your content with limited or no ways to avoid it.
Again. The Salmon Analogy.
You don't have to eat the salmon.
But its in both our best interests for me to be blatant about which dishes contain salmon specifically so you don't eat the salmon.
(And its in everyone's best interests to start bullying websites and services into giving us better tools to make sure this symbiotic relationship works.)

How to permanently filter out certain tags on AO3!
With the following template you can filter out any tag on ao3 permanently as long as you use the custom site skin that uses said template.
li:has(a.tag[href*="/THE TAG/" i ]){display:none !important;}
Instructions under the cut
Go to create a new site skin (here)
Copy and paste the template above into the text box titled "CSS"
Replace "THE TAG" with the text between "/tags" and "/works" that shows up inside the URL of the tag you wish to filter out (visual below, "/"s are important.)
Tumblr media
4. Complete your skin, give it a keysmash title (titles have to be unique, leave fancy names for public skin makers) and make sure that it's type is "site skin" 5. Click "submit" and then "use" to save and turn on your skin!
Here are presets for each of the 4 main warning tags that AO3 uses. (Names of which are in red)
li:has(a.tag[href*="/Graphic%20Depictions%20Of%20Violence/" i ]){display:none !important;}
-
li:has(a.tag[href*="/Rape*s*Non-Con/" i ]){display:none !important;}
-
li:has(a.tag[href*="/Underage/" i ]){display:none !important;}
-
li:has(a.tag[href*="/Major%20Character%20Death/" i ]){display:none !important;}
Important: -If you want to remove your filter, turn off the site skin. -Remember to always read tags before reading something regardless, filters are never perfect! - this will only HIDE works, the numbers on search pages will not be accurate to what is visible on screen unlike when using the built in filtering system
That's all for now, my ask box is open for questions and requests!

Filtering and Blocking
I came across a post recently asking if there was a way to block tags like we do with blogs.
Granted itā€™s not for me to answer them because I am sure I am the LAST person they want to talk to since the goal is to block the content that this blog supportsā€¦
So, I figured, I would share the info here in a quick no-sound video and hopefully the person who wishes to block will see it and find it useful. If not at least it is useful for us to block out content we choose to ignore (you know, stuff that triggers us into chaos)
(Ps. Ignore my battery power)
I wish I had a definitive list of terms to block but there is never a guarantee that a person knows or even wants to tag a certain way.
Unfortunately, this is the internet. It is a wild uncharted safari zone of WTF šŸ˜‚ The joy of fandom is the diversity of thoughts, however, as we know, sometimes it does not work in our favor.
Happy blocking/filtering. Be safe out there Babes.

A filtering feature request, of the accessibility variety:
Blocking and filtering is working great, but typing filters in on mobile (android) kind of sucks. A big helping of memory issues means that it is *really* difficult, apparently, to correctly spell the tag in order to filter it (in this case the weird name of the formula one driver my mutual is obsessed with? I need him to go away).
I had to try four different times *and* my friend's tagging isnt consistent so I'm not even done yet.
So what I'm proposing/hoping/offering a quality firstborn child for:
Please let me filter directly from the tag, on my dash. Or like, when I tap a tag--like to search? In the header could be a filter option for that exact tag? Thanks so much for your consideration!
Answer:Ā Hey there,Ā @mrsgurgle!
So let it first be said that not only is this aĀ greatĀ idea, but it has wide, neigh, feverish support and enthusiasm from Tumblr staff across the, uh, Tumblrverse?
With that said, we will certainly look into it. However, we are unable to make any promises, as much as we would like to. Keep an eye here and on @changes for any news, and you will be the first to know.
Best,
ā€”Rob (Tumblr Engineering)

I love how requesting people tag things "Izzy critical" to help people avoid content that upset them and their joy in OFMD was (and presumably still is) considered an unreasonable demand on other fans for over a year, but now basically every blog around me is being very proactive about tagging anything that could upset other fans as "ofmd critical" for filtering and... people are berating other fans for making them aware of criticisms they did not want to hear about when they are just trying to enjoy their show.
Do you guys just need a refresher on filtering tags??? Account Settings -> Content You See. It's not hard. It is, in fact, very easy and that's why we kept requesting you help us not have the exact problem you are causing yourselves right now.
The people being critical have to tag (we are) and the people who don't want to see criticism need to filter it (based on the complaints I think a lot of you have missed this step).

How do you block tags? I'm not sure how to do it.
You use mobile mostly, right?
So you go to settings.
And tap on general settings. (This should be right at the top.)
Tumblr media
Then you scroll down to filtering.
Tumblr media
Now, you have two options for filtering. One is filtered tags and the other is filtered content.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Filtered tags would be the tags on a post. Say you want to filter the tag ā€œfood mentionā€. You just type it in there, restart the app, and boom! No more of that! (The post will still show on your dash but be blocked out.)
Filtered content is filtering actual words in a post or a username vs a tag. This is helpful for when people donā€™t tag something, or you really just donā€™t want to see a certain user. (Because sadly, people you block can still show up on your dash.)
Hope this was helpful!

Really wish I had the ability to make a brief note beside each blocked blog in my Settings or some kind of custom notification that pops up whenever I see grayed-out posts from a username I've filtered. Because sometimes I block people for benign personal reasons like "don't vibe with their headcanons" or "mildly annoying" and sometimes I block people for being "POISONOUS ā˜  RADIOACTIVE ā˜¢ HAZARDOUS āš ; DO NOT APPROACH; THIS IS NOT A PLACE OF HONOR", and I think having a custom note reminding me of why I blocked them would be good

Welp, it happened.
I have posted before about how blocking content on tumblr has no stigma attached
You ā€“ yes, you, person reading this ā€“ are allowed to block whatever tags/ content you want
You donā€™t need to have a ā€œreasonā€, you are allowed to block and filter content ā€œjust becauseā€ or ā€œbecause I donā€™t want to see itā€
Content does not need to trigger or squick you for you to be allowed to filter it
This post is officially your personal permission to filter out whatever content you would rather not see
And this includes filtering/ blocking ā€œ#current eventsā€ ā€œ#current newsā€ ā€œ#global newsā€
You are allowed to exclude/ block out current world events from your tumblr experience
This does not mean you donā€™t care!
Yes, you are allowed to filter content ā€œjust becauseā€ or ā€œbecause I donā€™t careā€
But filtering exhausting and upsetting content does not imply you do not care!
Compassion fatigue is a real thing!
Especially if you (like me) follow several, multiple, a bunch of activist bloggers
There are global crises everywhere, I just read of 6 genocides happening which is precisely why I decided to finally block/ filter out those ā€œcurrent eventsā€ tags
How to filter in the tumblr app:
Go to your own blog >
click the little gear in the top corner >
General Settings >
scroll down >
just above ā€œColor Paletteā€ there it is >
Filtering
Type in whatever tags or words you want to not see in the future
This works for filtering out user-URLs too, if you have specific people youā€™d like not to see posts by
The ā€œfull textā€ filter will, however, 1) also look at the URL of the prev to who put it on your dash 2) ignores spaces in the post
Example 1: You follow ā€œmicroplasdickā€ and you filtered ā€œorangeā€; if the OP is called ā€œorange-fishburneā€ your filter will hide that post; if the person microplasdick reblogged is ā€œorange-cucumberā€ your filter will hide the post. Doesnā€™t matter if the word ā€œorangeā€ is not within the post itself
Example 2: You have filtered ā€œorangeā€ and a post goes ā€œI also ran getting to my busā€ ā€“ that post would get filtered because it contains ā€œo ran geā€ in that sequence
So ā€œ#tumblr is my safe spaceā€ and for that to stay true, youā€™re most definitely allowed to block out current events/ world news
Please take care <2

Filtering tags/post content
I'm sure plenty of people do this already, but I've come across a lot of folks who have no idea that you can filter out certain tags, or even words that are included in posts on Tumblr.
This feature, along with blocking and the Blog Subscriptions tab (you have to turn this on in Labs, under settings), honestly make Tumblr usable for me.
I don't even filter out a lot of serious things that legitimately bother me. Mostly I filter things like discourse, shows, ships, or certain characters that I see a LOT on my dash and just have no interest in. I don't hate these things, necessarily, but the little box that appears in their place, telling me I have this thing filtered, is so much easier to scroll past than a whole post where I have to waste time determining what it's even about before I decide that I want to skip it.
One of the best things about the filtering system is that, with one click, I can still see whatever post is filtered, like so:
Tumblr media
In addition, say you have someone blocked, but you still see folks on your dash reblogging their stuff? If you add their username to your filtered post content (I also add it to tags just to really cover my bases), then voila! You just get a little box that's nice and easy to scroll past.
I don't spend a lot of time on Tumblr, so the filter tools and blog subscriptions tab make what time I do spend a lot more worth my while.
Filtered tags and filtered post content are both in settings, under 'content you see.' That's on desktop, anyway, but mobile is probably similar. Just keep in mind that Tumblr tends to go a little overboard with filtering post content. For example, if your filtered phrase contains some common words, you might notice that half the posts on your dash are filtered, so you'll have to change the filter in settings.
Anyway, I highly recommend it just to make your Tumblr browsing easier and more pleasant. āœŒšŸ˜Œ

Icosidodecahedron and truncated icosidodecahedron - with orange and green lines and red and green filters layered on top to filter out one of the solids
That is the drawing with both polyhedra included:
Tumblr media
The orange lines depict the icosidodecahedron.
The green lines depict the truncated icosidodecahedron.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Putting a green translucent sheet of foil on top (green filter) filters out the green. The orange stays visible. Hence: With the green filter you mainly see the icosidodecahedron.
Putting a red filter instead filters out the orange and the green stays visible. Hence: With the red filter only the truncated icosidodecahedron is visible.
- - -- ---
For drawing the icosidodecahedron I started with drawing a regular dodecahedron and "cut off" the vertices to half of each edge.
For drawing the truncated icosidodecahedron I started with an icosidodecahedron and cut off the vertices to one third of each edge.

So the filtering system here isā€¦ a system. When I filter a tag, Iā€™m not asking for a little black bar across the titties action. I donā€™t want it in my orbit at all. I donā€™t want to see ā€œyou filtered this, wanna see it anyway??? šŸ˜‰ā€

Let's talk about filtering and mapping! šŸ¤“
I'm working on the menu page for a restaurant, and as someone with very little frontend experience I wasn't sure how to go about parsing through a JSON file to return certain objects.
After some searching, procrastinating, going through this course, and then more searching - I finally came across the documentation I needed here!
So what is filtering and mapping? .filter() and .map() are JavaScript methods.
filter allows you to filter through an array of objects given some logic (want to find all the items with an id greater than 7? filter. Want to find all the items where the name is equal to "burger" that works too, want to add multiple conditions to find all the items with and id greater than 7 AND the name is "burger" well filter has got your back).
map is used to iterate through an array and call a function on every element in it. I used it to map each item to a list.
Here's an example: We have a JSON file of some food items.
Tumblr media
We want to grab all the desserts from our menu and display them on the desserts page of our website. It's time to filter!
Tumblr media
Keep in mind that the filter method returns a new array with all the objects that we want. In this case when we filter we will get an array with all the desserts.
First we import our JSON file so we can access it.
Next, we create a constant called dessertFilter which will hold our filtered array. dessertFilter will hold all items that have the type equal to dessert. In our example it will hold the chocolate cake object.
Next, we map each item from the new array to a list. This is the list that we'll see displayed on the page. You can choose which properties you want to map. We only map the name, description and price since there's no need for the user to see the item type or id.
Lastly, our return statement contains everything we will see on the page. In our return we have a header and the list of items - we wrap our list, dessertItems in an unordered list since list items need to be wrapped in either an ordered or unordered list.
Here's our result! We can style this with css later.
Tumblr media
Cool! so we filtered for dessert but what about our other menu items? Time to make a reusable component.
Tumblr media
The code is almost the same, but to make this component reusable we create an interface. Interfaces define objects and specify their properties. We specify an object called filterSearch that will act as a placeholder - we set it as a string since the item "types" in our JSON file are strings. (I'm using typescript which accepts interfaces but i believe vanilla javascript does not).
Now lets see the component in action
Tumblr media
Import the component so we can call it.
When we call FilterMenu we have to include filterSearch from our interface. The component needs to know what we're looking for. Here we can set it to any valid type like "dessert", "drink", or "appetizer" and it will display them.
Woo! now we're filtering and mapping with one line of code! and we can reuse it for our other pages too.
Last thing, these methods are chainable! you can connect them and have the same logic in one constant.
Tumblr media
Before reading the documentation, I had seperate JSON files for each menu category and was reusing the same code to map each file on each individual menu page. It was a lot of duplicate code, not great. Now, I have a single JSON file and a reusable component. It's satisying how clean it is!
Learning on your own can be frustrating sometimes, it can be hard to search for solutions when you don't know where to begin. I had never heard of filtering or mapping before this. If you're ever stuck keep pushing! there's so many resources and communities out there.
p.s. I'm open to any suggestions!
