No one asked, but here's my totally normal, not at all mentally ill-induced thoughts about tagging:
"incorrect [fandom] quotes" - good. The Right Way. This is the tag you bring home to your mother
"[Fandom] incorrect quotes" - you are letting their tits hang out, bro. Clunky. Weird. But also one of the most popular variations
"incorrect [fandom]" - this is only good for searching, not for posting. Incomplete
"incorrect quotes [fandom]" - what the actual fuck
Capital letters in tags - only for DIRE situations or yelling/emphasis
"fanart" - a classic. Fantastic. The only problem is when you wanna reblog official art but don't have an art tag. Tumblr should catch it under "art" as well tho, so you could have an "official art" and "fanart" tag but idk
Capitalizing the first letter of a tag - it can be an honest mistake
"queue" - kinda useless tbh. It's a nice tidbit, but no one searches up queued posts specifically. Plus, it doesn't really fit anywhere except as the last tag, which a lot of ppl don't read
"reblog" - also a bit useless but less so than "queue." Can be good if you wanna find more blogs
"Source: [XYZ]" - HAS to go 1st to look right, and so ppl will read it, which is annoying bc it takes up one of the 1st five tags that are actually picked up by Tumblr dashboard searches
Content/Trigger Warnings - important but confusing (for me specifically), especially with less common triggers. Is it "death," "death mention," "death tw," "death cw," "death ment," or "death ment tw?" (In art/images) is that blood or just a visual choice? Does "animal mention" accurately prevent ppl triggered or bothered by snakes, bugs, or other specific animals? If the word is in the post itself, will most people have it blocked in their settings?
"long post" - is this actually a long post that can be difficult to scroll by, or was there just a lot of words? Do both count?
"[fandom]" / "[shipname]" - sexy. Great for when the brainrot kicks in (and for finding posts via dashboard)
"not [blog's theme] - really funny but rare; I wish I saw it more
"my posts" - good to find original posts, but I don’t use it correctly. It feels wrong to use for "incorrect quotes" even though it makes sense
"incorrect quotes" - one of my fav tags bc I can just. Find incorrect quotes I want to use. Is it ethical? Idk, but thank you for your service (I do usually link back tho)
Tags where someone was just referencing smth that got caught by the Tumblr search - this is agony. This happened to me once with Liu Qingge when I wrote smth thinking about his character but not actually about him (and mentioned him in the tags), and that's the reason I use 10 billion slashes Just in Case. It's also kinda annoying when you're searching for smth and get random shit; I understand the OP's pain. We're all unwilling victims to this site sometimes

i think if you have to go to 'never seen a transandrobro that wasn't a zionist' then you're showing your ass that you do not know anything about anything. you can make your point without resorting to saying 'all trans men who are concerned about their oppression are complicit in genocide' just by the way. that's a thing you can do. it's not our fault that you've run out of ways to convince yourself you're in the right either
this sort of thing doesn't make you a friend to palestinians. you don't need to use their oppression as a gotcha. using real, human lives, past and present, as a gotcha in internet discussions about whether transandrophobia exists?
but, like, regardless, a bunch of trans men being zionists does not suddenly mean that every trans man is a zionist nor that trans men are, by design, uniquely evil or undeserving of having their concerns taken seriously. we've been through this with TERFs and trans women - yeah there are trans women pedophiles and that does not mean all trans women are pedophiles. but you, so-called defenders of trans women, are so, so, so close to repeating that exact rhetoric but, nay, it's okay cos you're doing it to trans men, who aren't really oppressed anyway, so it doesn't count.

This may be a strange question but have you ever been bullied in the tbhk fandom? I am having a hard time here
Heya no worries at all for the question! This is an important thing and if you needed to have a place to say it I am happy you did!
I really hope people will be nicer to you :// There is never a good reason for bullying unfortunately it happens a lot on internet QvQ my only advice would be to block those people and/or delete anonymous asks for a while if people are just putting stuff as anonymous :///
To answer your questions, idk if it counts as bullying but I was the target of some stuff like that yep, and tbh I don't really know why. People can have the opinions they want but I will be honest in the tbhk fandom you like a character or a ship that is not 'what everyone in the fandom should like' and people start menacing you for no reason.
A lot of people in this fandom are kids who sometimes don't get what insulting people do. (and not only kids but it is one of the reason, I feel like a lot don't have 'internet basis' like not saying everything about yourself on twitter help.)
Which is also one of the reason I am taking my distances with anyone in this fandom because I had too many unwanted stuff like when I was just trying to be nice and answer messages. It's not because we are in the same fandom that we are bffs.
This is sad to say but yes I don't think you can just have fun 'fun' in this fandom anymore, people will make sure you have a hard time for no reason and honestly I am tired of people who are unable to understand that we aren't just bots on the internet and that Surprise! people have feelings wow
I hope you will be better but don't hesitate to take some time off the fandom a bit ^^ I am being overly dramatic here because I had some bad experiences (I've been in the fandom since the start of 2020 so welp) but a lot of people are really nice and I am sure you can make some friends too ^^ (I did too! even if a lot aren't in the fandom anymore, it's nice seeing mutuals from far away doing their lives)

The image startled her; how long had it been since last she saw her reflection? The prohibition on vanity bared all convent walls.
Yet here she stood in front of glass, in another's clothes, as if breathing another's breath — another Suzanne, unblemished.
The fabric fit snugly.
She touched her cheek, remade. Oh, she had aged…
Someone stepped inside the room. She turned.
“I came to check, the door was open,” Jillian said, unable to ignore the nun without her habit. “I don’t know if this is improper, but... They look good on you.”
Mother Superion might have scowled — Suzanne smiled.
