notes from bambi: here you go!

Matt did see everything. He liked to lurk in the triplet’s fandom spaces, and when his mental health was good, he even found it kinda fun, though he would never reveal this aloud. He definitely enjoyed watching those same spaces work themselves into a tizzy at his knowledge admittance–these kids were so funny. So it came as no surprise to him when the Tumblr TikTok video showed up on his feed.

Matt hadn’t had a good night. He’d tried to jerk off earlier, all to no avail. His antidepressants were helpful for his mood and overall outlook on life but goddamn did they make it hard to masturbate. With a snarl, he had pulled up his boxers and opened TikTok. That was over an hour ago, and now Matt scrolled aimlessly on his private account. He was quite proud of it actually. He disguised it as some random fanpage and had made it a personal mission that week to reblog a few videos about himself. No one would know, and he was nothing if not a Matt girl. 

The video on his Following page was formatted simply–a girl in her room, as most of them were, and he saw it was one of his favorite fan accounts. She always had good takes and the drama in her comment section kept him incredibly entertained. She was expressing her fear at his now-infamous “I see everything” line, and with a chuckle, he pressed the heart icon, preparing to scroll away. In his sleepy haze, he missed, hitting the comment bubble instead. What he saw made his head tilt.

Matt rolled his eyes at that one. He knew it was a valid concern, but he also knew that there were prices to be paid for being famous, and he would take a few weird stories in exchange for the life of his literal dreams. And besides, he reasoned to himself, they were always so off-the-mark anyway that it didn’t even feel like he was reading about himself.

But back to the matter at hand. Matt had never even heard of Tumblr, so there couldn’t be that many triplet fan accounts on there, and he figured that after everything he’d seen on Twitter, he was ready for anything.

“Well this is fucking ridiculous,” he grumbled to himself, scrolling to the end of the “headcanon”, as it was called. Matt read the name of the “blogger” (he was learning so many new terms tonight) that posted it - some strange amalgamation of letters and numbers, with, of course, “sturniolo” tacked on to the end. Matt elected to keep his thoughts on the spelling to himself. “You’re weird for that. All of it.” He swiped out of the app, fully prepared to roll over, go to sleep, and forget all about it.

…

But what else did they get wrong about him? What did the rest of them think he did when he had sex? Matt figured he should check that “sturniolo triplet” hashtag one more time. 

He sat up properly for this, sighing as he flicked on his bedside lamp. It illuminated his room, its soft light showcasing the woodsy decorations he’d furnished months ago. With a grimace, he opened the accursed app once more and began a deep dive.

It seemed the entire community centered around “smut” of him and Chris. He saw a few for Nick, a handful for Nate, all of which he scrolled past quickly, blinking them away. He wasn’t trying to dive that deep.

The first thing Matt noticed was that almost every story had a line of photos at the top, like a faux header. None of the images contained anything amiss–all were photos posted by him and his brothers throughout the years, pictures taken by fans at shows, and the like. No, the real stuff lay in the words. This was a community–he could tell that much from the amount of reposting–of very good writers. Many of their stories spanned thousands of words with multiple parts and real plots woven throughout. And there were a lot. It was dizzying. He adjusted himself. 

There were stories for almost every situation, some even making him a drug dealer (though most writers seemed to think that out of anyone, it would be Chris, which he found hilarious due to the fact that Chris couldn’t tell a convincing lie if his life depended on it), a mafia boss, a father, a mechanic, or simply just a doting boyfriend. Some wrote him as a harsh, domineering man, quick to take his bratty girlfriend to task. Some wrote him as a needy submissive individual, and the words they used made his head spin. Matt adjusted himself again. His dick didn’t normally bother him this much. Maybe he needed new boxers. 

Matt himself only had a bit of experience in the wide world of sex. He knew there were some wild kinks out there, but he found he was never much interested in watching that kind of porn, and he’d only been with a few girls his entire life, none of whom had ever asked him to perform such tasks on them, so he really didn’t know what he liked and didn’t like. As he lay in his bed, his lamp casting fuzzy shadows over his room, Matt couldn’t tear his eyes from the screen.

They think I’m capable of actually…spanking someone? Am I? If she wanted it, I guess…Apparently I’m some sort of sex god, super posessive, I have a breeding kink, whatever the fuck that means, and Chris and I fight over girls a lot. To him, that was the most unrealistic–he and Chris had wildly different types. 

The sheer amount of stories depicting him absolutely rearranging the guts of the reader or y/n (he still had no idea what that meant) made his brain short-circuit, and he tried to tap out of the one currently pulled up. But alas, Matt still had no idea how Tumblr worked–the images below every story just took him deeper, and it was one of those images that he misguidedly clicked on, an innocuous lilac purple, covered in sparkles. Seems harmless enough.

As Matt tapped around, trying to get back, he found himself on another account and thoroughly lost. An underlined word in the first post caught his attention–concepts. Subtitled below were the words, “short headcanons about the triplets! both sfw and nsfw”. He tilted his head. ‘Sfw’? What does that mean? A quick Google search quieted his questioning. Surely a “safe-for-work” headcanon would be fine to read. He tapped the link, and it directed him to a simpler page, one organized using just his name and Chris’s, each one with links below them. His thumb hovered over one near the top, its title mildly intriguing–“soft!dom!matt”.

Then he paused. Was he really doing this? His dick began to throb. He should have just left the whole thing alone, but now…well, now he had to know. 

Five words in and he was pumping his rock-hard cock in his hand. Matt’s neck strained, his left thumb shaking as he tried to scroll to read more. Such a short piece of fiction and yet…

His stomach began to tie itself into knots. The more he read, the more he panted. His whole pelvic region felt tingly and his cock was so warm in his hand, and getting warmer by the second. This was different than anything he’d ever jerked off to before–this wasn’t a video, or even a naughty selfie from a girlfriend. This was pure porn, about him bringing some unnamed girl to completion over and over again. Matt didn’t even know that was possible. The unnamed girl couldn’t even handle his cock, that’s how tight she was-

The moment he realized this fact, his nuts clenched and he spurted cum all the way up to his chest. Pumping furiously, even raising his hips into his hand, he continued his explosive orgasm, letting out breathy groans as he did so. His chest heaved with heavy breath, and Matt felt the beginnings of a headache forming behind his eyes from how hard he’d just finished. He collapsed on his bed, sheets askew, pillows rearranged, staring blankly at the ceiling.

And then Matt realized which head had been doing all his thinking for him this entire time. Letting his now-limp dick flop to the side, he let out one more gasp of air. “That was weird,” he said aloud into the empty room. “Never doing that again.”

notes from bambi: i referenced my own work because it didn’t feel right to use anyone else’s without their consent, and i wanted to put this out today, not because i think my writing is better than anyone else's or because i think matt would prefer mine over yours. remember that it’s all just fiction and we write for fun. i hope you all enjoyed!

How to spot a Recast store.

First of all, what is a recast?

A recast is an unlicensed copy of a BJD, a knockoff, a fake. Usually the dolls are bought from a legit company (sometimes not even from the recast company itself, but from supporters), a mold is made (either making a physical mold or a 3D scan) and then the dolls can be mass produced. Usually made in China, but there are exceptions to this.

I'm not going into detail here on why they are a big problem, there are tons of posts about this on the internet. They are bad, they destroy the dollmakers and artists that I love, if you're fine with that, this blog isn't for you.

This blog is for those, that want to buy legit BJDs and don't want to accidentally buy a recast, which is getting harder and harder.

I'll put this under a cut, because this is gonna get a bit lengthy.

What not to do: Google "buy BJD", you'll literally get a ton of Ali Express listings of knockoff BJDs.

You will have to do some research up front, you need to know what company you want to buy. For that, you can go to the BJD hashtag, here, on instagram, sometimes even Twitter, and see if there is something you like. Usually people also tag the company and sculpt, and if not, asking usually gets the reply.

You can also go to one of the many official dealer pages and just click through their dolls to see if you find something that you like.

Stay away from Ali Express and Amazon. Both of these pages are riddled with knockoffs. Idk if there are actually any legit sellers on Ali, if there are, they are few. I think Dollzone sells on Amazon, but seriously, most of the dolls there are fakes.

Ebay and Etsy are also full of recasts, but you can find some legit dolls there.

So, how do you spot a recast store? Let me show you some hints, that are usually a dead giveaway.

A lot of different styles.

This is the header of an etsy shop. While the two on the left might be from the same maker, the other two are very different. (The one on the right is a doll from Fairyland, one of the, if not the most recasted company out there).

Different styles only make sense, if the seller is a distributor/dealer. If it's not a dealer, back out.

Which brings us to the next point:

Generic names.

If a shop were a dealer, they would give you the names of the companies and sculpts.

Example from an official dealer:

See how you can choose the company, size, and then the sculpts? Recast shops don't give you that (there's one exception, that I'll mention later).

They give you "1/4 BJD Doll MSD", "Girl BJD 1/6" or if they wanna go all out "1/3 BJD Doll 60.5CM Full Set BJD Doll With Clothes Resin Toys Best Gift for Girls Hand Made Doll Custom Dolls OOAK Art Doll diy Dolls".

They want to stay as generic as possible, so the newbies that google for "buy bjd" will be redirected to their pages.

If you find generic names, back the hell out of there. I don't know a single company or dealer, that do not tell you what doll exactly you're buying!

Short production time

BJDs take time to make. They are not mass produced dolls, they are casted, sanded, strung and packed by small companies. Even the big names in this hobby usually are just a hand full of people. So it takes time.

Usually between 2-6 months. I don't know any company that actually gives you an estimate below 60 days. Sometimes they ship faster (maybe it's a popular sculpt and they have actually made some for stock, maybe they didn't have a lot of orders during that time, etc), but they don't usually give you a shorter timeline.

If your listing claims the doll will be shipped in 1-2 weeks? Bad news for you, that's usually a recast store.

Price

I hate to say it, but this is an expensive hobby. Dolls usually cost at least $200, oftentimes more. There are some companies that have cheaper prices, but if it goes below $150, I would definitely have a closer look.

Now, the price is usually the last thing that I mention, because before the price tag, you should check for all the things mentioned above. Only if you have a consistent style, specific names, and a timeline that makes sense, then you should check for the price.

I say that, because I know of one Recast store, that tries so hard to look legit, they actually put effort in it.

And that is the BJD Shop.

Look at that. You have company names, you have sculpt names, it looks like a legit dealer (if you ignore that their production time is 1-4 weeks).

But now look at the prices.

Not taking into account that this specific sculpt isn't even available from Fairyland anymore, the price? Is not even $100 (for blank doll).

Now let's look at the actual price by FL:

Rule of thumb: If a price is too good to be true, it very likely is.

So I recommend actually looking for the doll company, if you find a dealer you're not sure is legit, and compare the prices.

A good page for information is Den Of Angels. It's a forum, but a lot of things are easily available without account through Google. For example their dealer list. Is it complete? I don't know, maybe not, but it's a good start.

I hope this is helpful for anyone who isn't sure about a shop they want to buy from.

Best Apps Every Content Creator Should Know In 2023

Content creation needs skills and creativity, but aside from that, using a content creator app can turn the tables in your favor. In addition, it will enhance the skills that you already possess. For example, you are a script writer and video editor but you have little to no experience in graphic design, in that scenario, you’re going to need a content app that will effortlessly create graphics.

Also, looking for the best content creation app for your business/content can sometimes be tricky. Following your social media marketing plan is your main focus and the list of such apps is usually lengthy. Choosing one that doesn’t suit your needs can lead you astray from your goal.

So if you ask me how you should pick the best apps to reach your marketing efforts, truth be told, there’s a handful of elements to consider. You should look for its features, the price, whether they have a mobile version or a desktop and what can it contribute to you as a content creator.

1. Grammarly

Grammarly can help you avoid typos when you create posts on social media, scripts for videos and podcasts, blogs, or other written content. It’s a content creator app that checks grammatical errors, incorrect punctuation, unnecessary words, and spelling.

Grammarly is free and you just have to log in to its website, paste your text and it will automatically show you the mistakes. Now if you want to get vocabulary and tone suggestions to better fit with various writing styles, then use the premium version. The current monthly plan is $30 but if you pay for a year, it’s only $144 (you can save up to 60%).

2. Canva

Canva is a famous app for graphic design and it gives you a ton of templates that are not limited to social media. You can generate content for Instagram and Facebook, or be sophisticated with posts on Twitter or even newsletters and email headers. Another good thing is that you can also create videos.

Furthermore, the best part about Canva is its user interface. The site is easy to navigate, even a beginner can smoothly access most of what Canva can offer. You can use Canva for free but if you want to access over 6 million pre-licensed 4K and HD video clips, and a 1TB storage limit, then subscribe to Canva Pro for only $14.99 per month.

3. AllHashtag

Hashtags started in 2007 and have become widely popular ever since because it’s being used on the web to help people find a particular topic. So basically it’s a phrase preceded by a hash symbol “#”. For instance, if you want to find the latest fashion trend on a particular platform, you just use the search bar and type #latestfashiontrend and it will show all results or if you see that hashtag somewhere, you can just click it and it will redirect you to a page with all related latest fashion trends.

Why am I explaining this, you might ask, it’s because hashtags can help the internet’s algorithm go to your profile whenever you use a specific hashtag. AllHashtag is a free website that suggests hashtags. It does not limit the number of hashtag searches and you need this as a content creator because the choice of hashtags can affect your content discoverability.

4. Snapseed

There are thousands of free mobile photo editing apps that do not have pro-level edits like tone curves, blemish removal, and selective editing. However, Snapseed has those features and it’s completely free. You don’t have to unlock anything and pay for a subscription, plus, it’s accessible for both Android and iOS users.

Furthermore, Snapseed supports RAW files, which means that content creators who use mirrorless cameras or DSLRs can transfer their pictures and edit them immediately.

5. InShot

If you need a content creator app that’s free, with beneficial features for trimming, splitting, and merging clips, and editing videos, InShot is the best option for you. It lets you adjust video brightness, saturation, and contrast. Also, you can be creative with the visuals using this app for it comes with a variety of unique filters and transition effects.

Equally important, InShot offers a huge selection of royalty-free music to go with your video. Use them as a background track or replace the sound from the original video, it’s up to you. You can also do voiceover and add narrations if you don’t like talking in front of the camera.

WHY?

Exhibits A, B, C, D, E, F, G

Tumblr recently announced a new feature called Post+ meant to help content creators make money while keeping a cut to help maintain the site. Not a bad idea, right?

The problem is that tumblr actively encouraged the use of Post+ in conjunction with fan works. Which is, despite the way they continue to side step it, highly illegal. Not enough people are aware of that fact.

Our mission is to force tumblr to either rebrand the Post+ feature as something for original content ONLY and/or offer a means to help the site survive outside of monetizing fan work. We want the see tumblr thrive but Post+ has the potential for ruining everything. Give us a better option, @staff ! In fact, HERE are some options!

WHAT ELSE CAN I DO?

Optional avatar and banner to use!

[Image description : a square shaped color gradient image going from purple to blue to cyan to green. A large red prohibition sign overlaid on the words tumblr post+. /End image description]

[Image Description : a tumblr header color gradient image going from purple to blue to cyan to green. On the left side is a red prohibition sign overlaid on the words tumblr Post+. Underneath is the words log off protest in bold letters. On the right side is the words I am logging off for 48 hours. /End image description]

Banner credit to @adairctedgibbgirl ! Thank you!

If the banner doesn’t size correctly, this this post HERE!

You can also spread the word on ALL social media (Twitter/TikTok/Facebook/Reddit etc) and reblog this post. You can also look at this post HERE for more ideas. Another option, if you’re using the mobile app, is to leave an honest review (be polite, be concise, don’t spam) on the App Store of your choice! The best and easiest way to protest is DON’T USE POST+!

WILL THIS WORK?

We got tumblr to temporarily hide the original Post+ posts and possibly made wip a thing. So who knows?

ANYTHING ELSE?

Keep checking @postplus-protest for updates and further info, especially updates to this post! Thank you, all of you, for participating or boosting!

Remember to reblog, use the hashtags #postplusprotest and #tumblrlogoff2021, and SPREAD THE WORD TO OTHER SOCIAL MEDIA!

I usually stream otome visual novels or joseimuke mobile games. Some of my favorites are Ensemble Stars!! Basic and Music, Bandori, Taisho x Alice, Tears of Themis, Hatoful Boyfriend, and BUSTAFELLOWS.

Sometimes I'll stream variety content such as JRPGs, scuffed karaoke (yes it is always scuffed lol), baking or decorating desserts (rare because this is messy and requires lots of planning!), crocheting, and cozy chatting content. I like to experiment with my content when I have more time in my schedule!

I'm currently working on a larger video project where I summarize the entirety of the Ensemble Stars story backlog and lore on YouTube. The series is still very much a work in progress but I do have a livestream VOD where I explained some basics about the game universe and characters which you can watch here:

I also really love music! I try to hold karaokes as much as I can and I've recently start recording covers songs! You can check out my first cover song below. It would mean a lot to me if you gave it a like as well!

Other than that I do a bit of voice acting, sometimes while I'm playing VNs I'll even try to voice over the characters. But mostly I just record short voice clips and post them to YouTube and TikTok.

Now that I have this page I hope to post some exclusive Tumblr content such as video scripts for my YouTube videos and reviews for games, animes, mangas, and novels! I'll link back to some of those posts when I do create them.

Thank you so much for reading this far! And thank you even if you didn't really read the whole posts lol, I know it's long but I wanted it to be extensive enough that you could find anything possible about me.

I'll be updating this post as much as I can to keep the info up to date. It would mean a lot to me if you checked out some of my content and dropped a follower/sub/like on anything that interests you. Comments are always welcome as well and my ask box is always open to everyone!

[fereldanwench]

There are obviously a lot of New Tumblr User Guides™ circulating lately as folks return after a long hiatus or migrate here from Twitter or Tiktok. Most have good information for anyone looking to have a more social experience here. Most also perpetuate some misinformation about ~*engagement*~ and Tumblr's algorithm.

So for newbies and gremlins like me who've been checking in just about every day since 2010 alike, here are two common myths and one fact about Tumblr (at least as of April 2022):

Myth: Tumblr doesn't have an algorithm. I think most of the time when folks say Tumblr doesn't have an algorithm, they're either referring to the hilariously mistargeted ads in your feeds or that most people have their dashboard (the main feed you see when you open the website or app which predominantly shows you posts from people you follow) set to a chronological feed.

But Tumblr does have an algorithm, and there are a few ways to see that in action. Algorithm Options on Your Dashboard Open up your Dashboard Settings and you'll see a few different options available to you:

On the website, they're accessed by clicking on the user icon in the header and then going to Settings > Dashboard.

On the Android app, they're accessed by tapping on the user icon at the bottom right corner, tapping on the cog icon at the top of your blog, and then going to Account settings > Dashboard preferences. (Not sure on IOS devices, but I'm guessing it's something similar.)

The first three options you'll see on that page are:

Best stuff first

Include stuff in your orbit

Include "Based on Your Likes!"

These are all algorithm-driven.

Now I personally have all of these options turned off. 😘 I would also wager a lot of Tumblr veterans do as well, but newer users who wouldn't even think to check this out might not. And it's probably very confusing to read "likes don't mean anything!" when they're literally getting fed posts that are based off their likes. (More on that in a sec.)

Recommended for You & Trending Outside of your main dashboard that shows content from people you directly follow with potentially some other stuff sprinkled in depending on your dash settings, there's also the Explore and Recommended for You feeds:

On the website, you can access this feed by clicking on the compass icon on the header.

On the Android app, you can access this feed by swiping left from the main feed or by tapping on the For you 🔮 option in the header.

As with the algorithm options for the main dash, these aren't features I really use, and I doubt a lot of old-school Tumblr users pay much mind to them either. Most of the time when I end up there, it's because I accidentally swiped on the app.

The Search Pages The search looks pretty different between the website and the app:

If you tap on the magnifying glass icon at the bottom of the Android app, it will take you to a Search page that will show the tags you follow, tags and blogs the algorithm thinks you might like, and a few other algorithm-based content suggestions similar to the Explore page on the website.

On the website, you just have the Search bar at the top left of the header. If you follow tags, you'll see those drop down when you click in the bar.

Whether you're on the app or website, however, when you do a search or click on a hashtag, you'll see Recent and Top at the start of the search/tag page. Recent is a chronological feed that will show you the newest posts related to the hashtag, and Top will show you the posts that have the most notes. You can also filter Top by different time spans; e.g. all time or in the past 24 hours.

(One slight caveat here for website users: the Tag pages and Search pages on the website are a little different. If the URL has /tagged/ instead of /search/, you'll only see the posts that have been explicitly tagged with said tag and you can't filter the Top posts by time. Under /search/, it'll pick up on any post that has related keywords to said search, regardless of tag. If this is confusing, I know.)

And all of this brings me to the next big misconception:

Myth: Likes don't mean anything and only reblogs help generate more attention for posts. The exact way that Tumblr weighs all notes on a post (comments, reblogs, and likes) isn't public knowledge as far as I can tell. But it is obvious that likes are something the algorithm is capable of tracking given that there's a whole feature dedicated to it, and as far as I can tell, all forms of notes help bring posts to the Top feeds in the Search/Tag pages.

So because there is an algorithm that tracks likes and there are multiple ways to access algorithmic feeds, likes aren't as useless as some old-time users might make them out to be.

That said, I believe what folks mean when they say that likes don't help share a post is that your likes will not directly appear in anyone else's dash, unlike on Facebook or Twitter, and that is true. And even if you don't have your likes set to private, it's very rare for users to go through someone else's likes the way they'll go through someone's blog. If you want to give a little extra love and support to an artist or writer here, reblogging is the way to go.

Fact: Reblogging other people's posts is a great way to get involved in a community on Tumblr. Reblogging is also one of the best ways to have a more social experience on Tumblr. Most creative types on here especially love to see nice tags and comments when someone reblogs their work.

Also, it might seem counterintuitive if you're used to ~*growth advice*~ for sites like Twitter, which tends to discourage "diluting your personal brand" with too many retweets, but if you are looking to ~*grow an audience*~ here for whatever reason, reblogging does help generate "social proof" and show that you're a dedicated member of your fandom, creative community, etc.

Although I also want to stress that if you're just here to lurk and you don't want to socialize or build an audience for your own work, that's also completely fine. There can be a lot of guilt-tripping about users not reblogging and only liking posts, which is something I have personally always pushed back against because people can and should use Tumblr however they want.

But if you're bored and lonely or wondering why you're not getting followers or people aren't reblogging your stuff, it's because you gotta engage a little differently here. Reblogs are a great place to start.

[redbullseb]

thank u franziska @antogioamoremio for the tag!! mwah <3

1. Why did you choose your url?

red bull got annoying

2. Any side blogs?

yep! @thomasmvller is for bayernblogging, @xovettel is my archive of seb edits, and @sebmarkism is for martian.

3. How long have you been on tumblr?

too long

4. Do you have a queue tag?

queue know it. ba dum tsss thank u i’m here all night

5. Why did you start your blog in the first place?

my friend in middle school was like. hey check out this cool band called panic! at the disco. hey check out this cool website where people talk about panic! at the disco. hey check out—

6. Why did you choose your icon/pfp?

jim moriarty stealing the crown jewels is one of the best scenes ever in tv history

7. Why did you choose your header?

vogue header has been my thing for years on twitter already, i’m just continuing with it

8. What's your post with the most notes?

. we don’t speak of it

9. How many mutuals do you have?

15. How do you feel about "you need to reblog this" posts?

in the armchair activism sense? i get the sentiment, but with all due respect, it’s feels performative imo? like the actual cause (whatever it may be) is diminished in favour of being turned into a chainmail meme that op can get clout for and others can feel better about themselves for reblogging. on the other hand, i’ve learned about the existence of some events through those kinds of posts and read up on them separately, so there’s something to be said about the end justifying the means etc

16. Do you like tag games?

yeah, they’re fun!

17. Do you like ask games?

yes! also fun!

18. Which of your moots do you think is tumblr famous?

Blog Tag

Tagged by @priscilla9993! Thank you!

1. Why did you choose your URL? It's literally just my first and second name backwards. Not much else to it than that. I had a good feeling no one else would have the same URL and it was a dumb thing me and my friends did and laughed about when we were in school.

2. Any side blogs? I have two but I don't really want to name them for shyness reasons, haha! I will say one is a life-type blog that I am sorely neglecting and the others a roleplay blog.

3. How long have you been on Tumblr? I think since 2012, so about nine years. I'm not entirely sure so I went on my blog and searched for what I know is one of my first ever posts (I know it's my first because my hashtags are so messed up on it, haha).

4. Do you have a queue tag? Nope.

5. Why did you start your blog in the first place? I genuinely have no idea. I can't even remember creating this account, let alone why I did. The only thing I can say is that I know some of the original things I posted/reblogged on it were posts about Vampire Knight and Adam Lambert, but I don't think either of them were actual reasons for my starting it.

6. Why did you chose your icon/pfp? I recently got back into anime and my favourite anime of all time is D.Gray-Man. It's fantastically written and the relationship between the characters is genuinely well developed, including the two characters in my icon. They're somehow enemies who still care for each other at the same time and they have some sweet moments together.

7. Why did you choose your header? It was a beautiful piece of artwork from a friend of mine for Curious Archer (Alice and Robin from Once Upon A Time) along with my OC characters as their children. I was so honoured when she did this drawing based off of one of my fanfics and I still look at it so fondly every time.

8. What's your post with the most notes? Pretty sure it's my Avengers Endgame post where I talk about how much I love the way Tony treats his daughter and how well the films made him a dad without changing his entire character. It's also a post I still firmly stand behind 100%.

9. How many mutuals do you have? I have 8, though admittedly we don't talk much anymore. Especially lately which is entirely on me. I've been struggling to stay in contact with people but I'm hoping to change that and start reaching out more.

10. How many followers do you have? According to Tumblr; 1,387 but I wonder how many of them are abandoned blogs because I do not believe that many people care about my ramblings, haha!

11. How many people do you follow? As of right now; 28.

12. How often do you use Tumblr a day? A lot. I tend to be one of those who clicks on it every half hour just to see there have been no changes, come off, and then check again in half an hour.

13. Did you have a fight/argument with another blog once? Oh boy yes! I've had many fights with other blogs but the worse one I remember being when I was in the Teen Wolf fandom. There with this girl who, quite honestly, was a vile and nasty bully who harassed me even after I had her blocked simply because I didn't drool over a celebrity she obsessed over. We went back and forth a lot back in the day but thankfully enough time has passed that I don't even remember her blog name and I doubt she remembers mine.

14. How do you feel about “you need to reblog this” posts? I think they range from a little annoying to disgusting (talking about the ones saying to reblog or someone you care will get hurt). And honestly, no matter what the cause, topic or reason, the minute I see someone telling me to reblog something I will purposely ignore it. Even if I agree with the whole message it has, I am that petty, I will skip past if completely it tells me to reblog it.

15. Do you like tag games? Yes! They're a lot of fun to do and interesting to see everyone else's answers!

16. Do you like ask games? Again, yes! For some reason I've always loved answering questions.

17. Which of your mutual do you think is Tumblr famous? To be honest I don't know about that. I think a lot of my mutuals are casual bloggers, or mostly on twitter or have gotten fairly quiet over the years. Unless I've got my head in the sand and it turns out I have a mutual others gush over without me knowing, which is entirely possible.

18. Do you have a crush on a mutual? No, not really. I love them as great friends I will treasure but that's about it.

I'm gonna tag: @rollyjogerjones, @lariskapargitay, @iescapedmayday, @superdupermary, @dimplesandcutesmiles, @of-monsters-and-werewolves and @onceuponanovel

[taee]

so apparently twitter found a bunch of one accounts that started it and i checked one and they literally have tae in their header... i guess i was wrong and it really be ppl u think are 'fans' anyways if u guys can pls report these accts. they're trying not to engage. just report and leave it twitter(.)com/reportfortae1/status/1350830235499986946

Yes thank you for the link anon!! It definitely isn’t worth it to engage with these people in anyway. Please help to block and report the accounts listed in the tweet above and use the trending hashtag to clean out the searches! Sigh...a lot of antis and akgaes (individual fans) do that so its difficult to tell sometimes. Its important to always check the account before you click the follow button! 

[daredevilexchange]

Show cancelled? Let those who took that decision know you’re not happy with it, and let the Daredevil team know how much you want MORE of it!

Get #RenewDaredevil trending by tweeting about it every Friday, 12-2pm ET (check the website to see when that is for your time zone! Should be one hour after this post is online)

Details here on the Renew Daredevil website

At worst, you’ll give support to the DD team.  At best, well... maybe we can save it? it’s happened before ;-)

Header from Renew Daredevil

Helpful tips under the cut

No more than 2 hashtags (#RenewDaredevil + #Daredevil or #DaredevilSeason4)

Tweets should be short and to the point

No foul language

Graphics increase engagement so use your fave pic(s), gifs or vids of DDS3

Twitter watches for engagement so remember: CLICK the gifs/vids/pics, likes AND rt all help the #RenewDaredevil team effort

Reply to DD cast, crew, big fans - they may RT and spread the word but NO HARASSMENT please

Remain a positive voice for the effort, no bullying/threatening others into RTs, no arguing with people who respond negatively to your posts

The Base Camp and UNIVERSTAR story unfolds

After the BT21 gathered together, they searched for a place to live in. This place is the Base Camp. “#UNIVERSTAR_story_unfolds” is a series of tweets following their daily life there. I can be considered as a part of the BT21 UNIVERSE story, fitting between season 2 and 3.

The Place

The BT21 settled in a nice house in the city. We know of one main room including the living room, the kitchen, and a bedroom corner, as well as a dance studio and the rooftop of the building where you can also find Tata’s secret place.

The Base Camp is was created during episode 3 of BT21 Universe. We learned it serves as a company and as a dorm and that it was provided by Tata. It includes a training room, a studio, a garden, and a gym area. You can follow the life of the BT21 in the Base Camp with #BASECAMP. There’s also a Base Camp page in the Hello BT21 photo album, mainly showing when the BT21 moved in.

1. The Base Camp

Here’s how it looks from the outside:

We can see (the links in parenthesis are pictures happening in this location):

Tata’s secret place (see the next part for the details)

RJ’s garden and the little wood (swings)

Mang’s skate ramp

the training space

Cooky’s gym corner

a cozy space (churros; eat more, sing louder)

the RV: it was lifted up there by Van in giant mode (the laundry picture probably happened before the RV was placed here)

And here’s how it looks from the inside. There’s no official plan so this is a guess based on the pictures and videos we got.

There are several rooms, seen in different pictures:

the bathroom (Chimmy shaving)

the dance studio (movie night, Baby Shark collaboration)

the main room with:

a kitchen corner (detective RJ)

the living room (decorating the tree, cookie time, CHIMMY’s lesson, cups - the cups also appear during the picnic, - Creation of BT21)

the lockers

TATA, SHOOKY, MANG, and CHIMMY’s bedroom could be in the RV. Whether their room is in the RV or in the building, it is next to the shelf with their cups, where they hanged socks for Christmas and where RJ watched MOYA’s video.

Several scenes of BT21 UNIVERSE 3 “COOKY’s Fight Night” are in the base camp. These two pictures too.

More pictures of the BT21 at the Base Camp can be seen in the stories below.

2. Tata’s secret place

Tata’s secret place is a water tank on the rooftop, transformed into a lab with all of Tata’s things inside.

We discovered this place through a series of questions, which answer you’ll find below with the translation of Tata’s language (you can also see bigger versions of these pictures on this Twitter thread):

The picture with everyone, on the right, comes from here.

There’s a phone directly connected to the base camp. Tata’s resolution for 2019 can be seen here.

Here’s the article about Rj that Sally wrote.

Tata’s best cuts is an impressive collection of polaroids, which respectively come from:

BT21’s Guide to Happiness: never waste a sunny day indoors

“#UNIVERSTAR_story_unfolds” appeared in several tweets from 2nd January to 27th February 2019. It seems to be the part following BT21 while they're living together.

Sometimes there are tweets that fit in the narrative but don’t have the hashtag so I’ll mention and link them but I won’t put the picture here.

The story

Chapter 0: Happy Holidays

This chapter is closer to a teaser than an actual tale. It shows us the BT21 during the holidays.

It started with a playful snowball fight.

Then they prepared for Christmas. They decorated the Christmas tree, in a way that kind of looked like last year, minus the explosion...

They hanged their socks - or whatever they had at hand...

They ate cookies...

And Chimmy sang a carol. We have a complete summary of those holidays in Tata’s mail!

Lastly, Tata took over a billboard during the New Year, thus checking one of his goals to become a universtar!

Chapter 1: Universtar story unfolds

It’s a new year, so it’s time to get started anew! First thing first, let’s clean up! Put all your things in boxes and take them outside while it’s happening.

Once the cleaning is done, let’s decorate!

Then let’s tidy everything up! Including the gym equipment!

Cooky’s side is done! (and looks like Chimmy kept his picture preciously)

It’s already late! Everyone go to sleep! Shooky, Mang, Chimmy, and Tata share a room together...

The next day, they set up the skate ramp so Master Mang can give his lessons!

Eventually, they have to get inside because it started pouring! Luckily, they each other to help to dry everyone!

But let’s hurry to the bathroom, tonight we’re going to the merry-go-round!

The next day is also busy, RJ, Shooky, and Tata take care of the garden!

Now that all the plants received water, let’s play hide and seek!

That night, Tata stays up. He’s up to something!

Chimmy also his own resolutions, he’s going to learn Tata’s language!

(Translation: name hello! my name is Chimm[?] Chimmy is holding the y card)

Chapter 2: Secret Photographer

A mysterious photographer has appeared in BT21′s dorm! His first model is RJ doing his laundry! Oh, looks like one of Chimmy undies got mixed with his scarves...

The next one is sleeping Shooky! Even in his dreams, he and the crunchy squad will fight milk!

Fearless Cooky is always training haaaaAAAAAAARG!!!

Mang and Koya also work hard to dab perfectly! They even have RJ and Cooky standees to support them.

RJ bought carrots, paprika and a nice big lump of meat for dinner. But it looks like someone isn’t very fond of the green things...

Who could be the one behind all those pictures?

Shooky found him!

It’s...

A Tatarazzi!

And there are still many adventures waiting for the BT21!

Increase your sales with the last minute black Friday marketing campaign

Black Friday is a crazy time for marketers and business, with statistics showing that the period between Black Friday and Christmas now contributes 30% of annual retail sales. It happened on Friday 23 November, and that’s when customers whip themselves to become hustle and gain when they devoured offers.

Whether you run a Shopify store or sell on Etsy, hungry for this agreement brings a clear profit to all types of e-commerce businesses. But that also causes clear problems: that is, stands out.

Of course, what is also important to show is that Black Friday is not only good for the e -commerce sector — it’s good for various businesses, from SEO agents to even Saas companies. Remember, we all love.

In this article, Nightwatch will see exactly what you need to do to increase your sales with the last minute Black Friday marketing campaign, regardless of your sector.

1. Optimize your email marketing for black Friday This is what is important to know: Your customers are looking for an agreement during Black Friday. They know that the transaction is close — and they check their email to find it.

This means that email marketing is very important during Black Friday Run.

If you don’t appear in the customer’s inbox during this period, you lose. We all have an email address and we all hope the brand is related to the discount wrapped in a prize.

Of course, there are obstacles and we know you are rather skeptical at this time. Because, just like you, hundreds — well, thousands — other brands want to meet consumer expectations via this Black Friday email. So how do you stand out?

The first thing you have to do is encourage email marketing to build momentum and create a sense of awareness when we approach Black Friday. This means making an email sequence that starts earlier. The order of email campaigns like that is a good way to increase awareness, build anticipation, and can increase sales and you can use tools like Google Calendar to make a schedule.

What is important to remember about email during the Black Friday season is that you need to make sure your property stands out from your competitors. Remember, everyone will sell this Black Friday. Therefore, put yourself in the mindset of your customers: they might be bored with the same sales and email type.

Make urgency You can also add a countdown feature to your email, and write a short but interesting copy that is eager to discuss your upcoming discounts while always including lines like “only 5 days now …” both at the beginning or end of your email to remind what people will happen, and how long you will

This creates a sense of urgency. Make people aware as soon as possible about your agreement, and keep them excited when building anticipation with the passage of the day. Consider adding an agreement “only limited time” to your email marketing campaign too, because fear of loss is real.

Your copy of the nail In terms of copies, see the picture below from stripo. “This is our biggest sales … Ever” rather dramatic — but it works. This arouses interest and attracts the attention of the reader. In addition to going to a large header, the company ensures that their customers know exactly what they will get with great offers by running their inventory.

2. Use social media to make buzz

Are you ready to be a big temptation?

Social media can complement your email marketing efforts, and you can use both to tease the offer, tell your followers what they can have in a few days by making posts about your future offers and offers. Be sure to bind your social media efforts with your email marketing efforts. Let your customers know that special offers will be sent via email.

Use the hashtag

Tagar makes you more found on Instagram and Twitter, and you want to use it on these two platforms in building Black Friday.

Of course, you will see using the typical #blackfridaydeals hashtag, but you also have to do a little more research on other less competitive hashtags that are trending. Make sure the hashtag you choose is also relevant to your offer, and be creative. The last thing you want to do is compete with other people for the same hashtag.

It would be amazing if you can make the hashtag that is fully yours, and which is only used by your brand. This is what Patagonia did for Black Friday 2016 when they created the hashtag *#Loveourplanet *. The idea behind the hashtag (and a black Friday marketing campaign) is that customers get many things and do their parts for the environment.

For this purpose, patagonia uses social media to increase awareness of their values ​​-the values ​​they share with their audience. They knocked on the core beliefs of their customers and combine them with sales.

As you can see from the patagonia image used on social media, they are also not afraid to use the right emotions. Remember that people shop based on their emotions, not logic. Use images to touch their interests while making them feel exactly how you feel. Make them feel positive, happy, happy, inspired.

Partnering The great thing about social media is to allow you to partner with other brands and produce more exposure, more traffic and more sales for a few important days before Black Friday.

This is what Pieminister did when they partnered with homeless deeds to whom they donated shares in return for donations during Black Friday. Their Choice Charity Agency — Shelter — Having a much larger follower on social media, and this allows pieminister to use a completely new audience.

Timetable And maybe the most important of everything, you want to plan and schedule your previous post. This may be the last minute but not afraid — you can use tools like Hootsuite to do this for you, and that is the key you do. Social media is a fast -paced world in the best time, but far more busy during Black Friday. Timely posts can be a difference between successful marketing campaigns and those who miss the target.

Start as soon as possible. Plan and use tools to schedule your post. When you make all your black Friday posts simultaneously, they will be consistent. In addition, there is no risk that you will forget to make a key post later. That’s over.

Fast hacking There are some social media hacking that you need to use throughout the Black Friday season. For example, update your cover photo so that it attracts attention to your sales. Update your bio so that mention your sales and linked where people should go. Do the same with the invitation button to act you-make sure it takes them to your Black Friday landing page.

Take advantage of every social media platform. On Twitter, pin your Black Friday discount tweet. On Instagram, use IGTV and Instagram stories to eager to raise awareness of your sales.

3. TWEAK YOUR PPC ADVERTISING Paid advertisements can be the key to your success during Black Friday. You don’t have much time to make your pages more visible on Google organically, so why not pay more traffic?

Usually, the PPC campaign is directed for the long term. However, if you do black Friday at the last minute, you might only have a few days — or maybe even only 24 hours!

However, don’t worry. Although the wrong offer and the wrong advertisement can really damage your big plan, there is a way to make PPC Black Friday work for you.

Assuming you have used PPC before, all that you really need to do to make it work for Black Friday is to make some adjustments.

The main things that need to be -Tweak are:

Your title Copy of your ad Your keyword Your direction page Remember that Black Friday buyers have a different mentality for ordinary buyers. They are looking for agreements and your ads must be interesting and clear enough for them to click.

Ispionage has conducted research on seasonal PPC campaigns. When they typed “cyber Monday” to Google, they met a copy of advertisements from a company called Nastydress. Copies of advertisements using “Cyber ​​Monday online” in their headlines, along with “80% discount with free shipping for 10,000 products” in their copy.

This is quite interesting and interesting enough to make people want to click.

The important thing when you use a copy of ads like this is that you then support it with your direction page. There needs to be continuity for PPC advertisements to work perfectly. If you claim “80% discount with free shipping for 10,000 products”, it is important for you to make this look possible on the direction page to keep people on the customer’s journey. If you do not adjust your direction page so that it matches your PPC Tweak ad, you will lose.

Although you can use your keyword research tool to find high volume keywords that are relevant for a copy of your PPC Black Friday ads, it is not always needed. There are several clear generic key terms and phrases. These include:

Offer Savings Promotion Offer Discount Black Friday Monday Cyber Percentage off User intention is not something you need to lose sleep. You already know what users want to do — they want to buy. Don’t forget to use your buyers’ emotions directly. For example, use words like success, happiness, joy and so on. This is a small adjustment that drives more clicks during Black Friday Rush.

Budget You need to increase your budget with a large margin for your PPC Black Friday ad. This is clear because looking for products and services naturally rises on Black Friday. BPK increased during the holiday period because the competition increased. You can run ‘standard shipping’ but this is the problem — Google will not support you. Standard shipping is a standard setting determined by historical data and therefore completely useless on black Friday.

Promotion extension The promotional extension feature allows your advertisements to stand out, ensuring that people know for sure you run special sales. Preparing promotional extensions is a simple process and you will find it in the “ad and extension” section of your adwords account. Google will then guide you through the rest of what you have to do, and they even give you the option to choose “Black Friday”.

To increase your conversion level with Black Friday PPC, this is really true about spending a little time to do -how to advertise and copy your ads so that it is more specific for your black Friday and promotion.

4. Prepare your website and pages first Have you ever used your direction page as an effective marketing tool during Black Friday? If not, you are in a good company. According to a random campaign sample seen by Unbounce, only 8 out of 34 companies that promote Cyber ​​Monday and even have directions pages!

It is important for you to prepare your website for Black Friday a few weeks before starting. For one thing, you need to make sure that your website can even handle the entry of large traffic that might arrive. If you are worried about your server load capacity, you can use a tester tool such as the impact of the load.

Then, you need to tweak your website so your customers are very aware that you get some big discounts that appear on Black Friday.

How to increase Facebook page followers?

There are various ways to boost your Facebook page’s followers, but one thing we never do is buy them. Everyone wants to increase their Facebook page followers, therefore I’m going to give you some advice on how to do it.

Follow these steps to increase Facebook page likes

Invite people to like your page

The easiest way to increase Facebook page likes is by inviting your friends to like your business page. On Facebook, there is no limit that only you or the admin can send invites but your friends can also invite their friends and family to like your page. You will see a high engagement rate after your page begins to gain followers.

Include your social media account links on your website

Even a small store nowadays has its own micro-website, and different themes have different spots for social media icons. You can include a link to your Facebook page in your header or footer, as well as a popup that says “Like us on Facebook,” to ensure that your website engagements are directed to your Facebook page.

Include a link in all of your emails

We often utilize email marketing for marketing purposes, and we use signature lines as well. All you have to do is include a Facebook symbol and a link to your Facebook page, and everyone who receives your email will be able to see it. Because it is automatically added to every email, the signature line is the ideal spot to include a link to your Facebook page.

Engage with your community

The majority of people dislike your Facebook page because the posts are boring. It takes a certain expertise to keep a Facebook profile in good shape. A vital component of your success page is engagement with your community (followers). Respond to your page followers and engage in conversation with them so that they feel as if they are conversing with friends, and they will have faith in your product as a result of this simple action.

Post regularly

Infrequent posting sends the incorrect message. Create a planned calendar and post on it every day with the right keywords so that consumers spend quality time on your page and you receive the most engagement.

Create Facebook Group

Create a Facebook group dedicated to your business. Regularly post there to establish trust in your product. Your target audience will join your group, and you can switch them to your company page with daily posts.

Use Hashtag

The use of appropriate hashtags can help you improve the number of people who like your Facebook page. Make a unique hashtag that is never used before and use it in all of your posts. Also, look into some trendy hashtags, which we refer to as targeted or focused keywords.

Become a member of a relevant industry group

Participating in groups relevant to your industry can help generate visitors to your company’s page. If your fans enjoy your content, they will visit your page and like your Facebook page.

Regularly check Facebook insights

Facebook Insights provides you with information about your engagement and visitor graph. Find the posts that receive the most engagement and share that type of post frequently on your page.
