#i think they just randomly tag the people who account for most of their notes

[abbyshands]

Hi kit, do you know how to tell if a person sending asks saying they need donations for their family in gaza, is fake?

Cuz someone sent me an ask and I’ve reblogged it but I was going through the comments and there a several blocked and one of them says that the op is scamming people.

I know there are ppl like this that are that horrible, but I wonder if you know how tell them apart ? Or if anyone knows for that matter. Cuz I don’t want to mislead people and give them the wrong information or anything.

hi, honey! this is gonna be all over the place but. i've had this very thing happen to me before as well, maybe three or so asks just like the one you received. i did fall for the first one, but once you see them over and over again, i think it can get easier to tell when it's a scam. one thing to note is when the actual account began to post. i notice a lot of these accounts began to post in recent days or weeks. at the time that i donated to the first person who sent me an ask like this, it was february, and they began to post around mid january. the next tell is one i see a lot, where they'll reblog a bunch of things about palestine, but they will all be in a matter of hours, days, etc. usually never weeks (and also, you'll see that they randomly begin to reblog in very recent days. ex. all their reblogs are from three days ago and onward). one more thing: look at their posts (not their reblogs. their actual posts), and check if it says "some replies may have been blocked, deleted, removed, etc). absolutely, 100% not a good sign. chances are, replies are being removed by the op because they're getting called out for scamming.

the structure of the actual ask is also a dead giveaway. if it ends in "my goal is x amount of money," usually somewhere in the hundreds or thousands, not a good sign. if they are asking you to respond to their ask PRIVATELY, not a good sign. if you copy part of their ask and paste it into tumblr or do an internet search, and you see it elsewhere, not a good sign! these blogs will go around copying the same message into people's inboxes. chances are, someone else on tumblr has posted about the very person who sent you the ask, OR, you will find it somewhere else on the internet, etc a gofundme (which, by the way, is where most of these scammers obtain their story or pictures. they'll find it in gofundmes as i said, articles, etc). before you engage, copy the username of the person who sent you the ask, and paste it into the tumblr search bar. this is how i found out that the first person who sent an ask like this to me was a scammer.

this post here (which i absolutely implore you to read, as it captures what i want to say here much better than i'm doing so right now) explains why there is an abundance of people on tumblr sending asks like this in people's inboxes. for one thing, they target popular tags (ex. literally, the "palestine" or "gaza" tags, or any tag that may be trending at the time), or, they go for blogs who are consistently reblogging and/or uploading content related to the genocide. why? because they're taking advantage of the fact that you want to make a change in regards to what's going on. and if that's the case, what would stop you from donating to someone "in need," right?

if you want my honest opinion, if someone is sending you an ask about this on tumblr at all, it's likely not real. to put it into perspective: people who are really in gaza and want to escape, raise money, etc, will go to big network places such as gofundme, because there are better chances of them raising actual money in general, but in a short period of time. as opposed to asking people individually, their cause will be more widespread, and more people will see it. not only that: places like gofundme are pros at figuring out what's a scam and what's not. op in the above post noted this, and how places like gofundme will remove causes that are clearly scams. that's why scammers avoid places like this at all, and go to places like tumblr, where it isn't so easy for the actual site to remove their post. it's only when people on the app pick up on it, that scammers' facades fall. does that make sense?

i feel like this sort of jumped around, but i hope i was able to clarify what you were asking anyway. if someone feels the need to add onto this, please do, and if i need to clarify any point i made, etc, please let me know! ♡

thanks for the tag @sollucets i loved reading ur answers !!! 🫶🫶 i've been a little ia lately + busy with irl things but i'm slowly trying to work through the backlog of tag games 😅

1. why did you choose your url?

it's from the french words "la monnaie," which basically means small change. i found the word amusing when i first learnt it a while ago and i've been using it as a username practically everywhere ever since :]

2. any sideblogs? name them and why you have them

technically no? i set up the ao3 feed for the dangerous romance tag on a sideblog pretty much just for my own convenience, but that doesn't rlly count lol

3. how long have you been on tumblr?

i've been lurking on tumblr since ~2015, when you could actually use the website pretty functionally even without an account, but i only made this account in 2020.

4. do you have a queue tag?

i do! it's just "q" (although it's empty right now because i haven't been on much 😩😩)

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

i finally made a tumblr account after 5 yrs of lurking because of this one niche movie that had somewhat of a fandom on here and i wanted to interact lol

6. why did you choose your icon?

because fairy lights !! they're pretty :))

(i use this icon everywhere as well as my url, i think i've only ever changed it once on here)

7. why did you choose your header?

i had to go back and check my blog because i genuinely didn't remember what my header was 😭😭 but it's just a cute gif off of google that i picked coz i liked it :)

8. what’s your post with the most notes?

apparently this post about akkayan and raysand??? guess that answers the shitposts question as well LMAO

9. how many mutuals do you have?

quite a few !! is there any way of actually finding out the number? i have no clue, but if someone follows me i tend to check out their blog and if we have similar interests i'll follow back :] that being said, probably around 30-ish who i've actually interacted with beyond mutual liking and rbing hehe

10. how many followers do you have?

382!

11. how many people do you follow?

486 - definitely need to do a clean out tho because i follow a lot of random blogs from interests long gone by

12. have you ever made a shitpost?

yes lol

13. how often do you use tumblr each day?

it depends honestly, sometimes several times a day for several hours (😭), other times i'll go a day or two without opening it <//3

14. have you had a fight/argument with another blog?

nah, if i don't agree with something i'll just unfollow and/or block

15. how do you feel about ‘you need to reblog this’ posts?

very unnecessary, i get that there's good intention behind it but it's honestly just annoying to see and will actively make me not reblog it 😭 (or at the very least i'll go back and rb a version without the addition)

16. do you like tag games?

HELL YEAH, i love yapping about things 🥰🥰

17. do you like ask games?

yesss they're so much fun !!!! (that being said, my askbox is so wonky that it never saves my posts as i'm writing and then it'll randomly crash and i just the ask altogether????)

18. which of your mutuals do you think is tumblr famous?

hmm i have no concept of tumblr famousness but just looking through my moots there's quite a few who i feel are pretty well known???

that being said, gonna give a shoutout to dee @distant-screaming who is the most famous person ever to me because i love love love their fics so much 😭😭😭 like have i ever fully watched nlmg? nope. do i still constantly go back and read her palmnueng fics? absolutely.

19. do you have a crush on a mutual?

no i wouldn't say so :) i admire a lot of people on here and i love all my mutuals <33 (but in a platonic way hehe)

20. tags?

i feel like people have done this already (so no pressure + pls tag me in ur post if u've already done it !!) but tagging @dramalets @distant-screaming @winnysatang @hellswolfie @blackstar-gazer <33

[ahollowgrave]

hello i'm back. with some??? tips??? you can reblog on a whim! if you come across your own post on the dashboard, you can just reblog it again! Or you can toss it in the queue, or schedule it! you can also go into your archive and find your posts and reblog that way! if you're worried about 'spamming' then feel free to make a tag that people can block! i use 'SRB' which stands for self reblog. many people use this tag or one similar or one all their own. if you don't want to think about it at all, i highly recommend scheduling your post for a few days/hours/weeks/months out from when you first post it. this shuffles the post into your queue (if you use one) for whatever time and date you pick. you can just pick wildly, you can math it out, whatever makes you comfy and ends with your work being put back on the dashboard. also, if you don't know what the Queue or Scheduled Posts are here is a quick break down:

Some quick explanations from the Tumblr Help Desk:

Queued posts help keep your blog active by staggering posts over a period of hours or days.

Scheduling a post sends it to your queue with a specific publishing time instead of following your regular queue posting program.

(If you're using xkit I assume you know how to queue and schedule posts, so this is for the folks who don't!)

Whenever you make a post for tumblr dot com, you get a big blue button that says Post! But it also has a drop down menu! (Oooh, drop down menus!) See below:

In this menu we have the following:

In this case, we are focusing on "Add to Queue" and "Schedule." Please note that this menu is the same when you are reblogging as well! If you hit "add to queue" the post will automatically enter your queue (more on this later) but if you hit Schedule it will give you a pop up where you can pick the date and time you want a post to... post. Or reblog, in this case!

I just kind of scroll randomly on both of these menus and let it go. Once a post is Scheduled it can be found in your queue! If you already have a queue set up, the schedule post will be put between posts for the date/time you selected -- regardless of your queue rules. And you're done! You don't have to think about reblogging it yourself! In a few hours/days/weeks/months you will SRB your own post and put it back on the dashboard! And we get to see it again! Or maybe even for the first time!! A win for everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!

But Pigeon, you cry, how do I get to the queue!? No fear, my friend! The queue is but a few button clicks away. On the left hand side of the desktop you'll find these buttons! We want to click Account. This will unfold all your blogs, or just show your blog if you somehow only have one:

(Don't look at my following don't worry about it I'm fine)

Now. Your queue is set up individually for each blog! So, click the blog that you want. This will bring you to a screen like this:

I'm sure we're familiar with this screen! This is how you access your follower count, your drafts, and of course your queue. Click on queue and it will bring you to a screen that should look something like this in the middle:

Up top are our queue rules! As you can see, my queue is set to post 10 queue'd posts a day between the hours of 11am and 11pm US Central Time! (You probably see me post a lot more, this is because I have a lot of free time (sometimes) during the work day! So I am reblogging on top of the queue. Not always! But often!) These rules only apply to posts you have queue'd! But, again, this is where you Scheduled posts will show up! For example, as you can see the next post in my queue will post on Friday at 3:21 PM Central time. If I scheduled a post for Friday at 3:25 pm I would find that immediately after this post. I am not a technical writer by any means but if you didn't know how to use these features before I hope you know now! Not everyone uses the queue, in fact I think most people don't. But I love it! I mostly use mine to reblog my own stuff, for aesthetic posts, but I also toss in other people's writing and screenshots and other content all the time! I, personally, love when a post of mine gets reblogged weeks later because it was sitting in someone's queue. It's always a little bursts of notes on a screenshot or writing that I loved and it often leads to me reblogging my own stuff!! I don't want to tell anyone what to do or how to use tumblr dot come. This is a social media site and you should be having fun here! But tumblr is one of the last social media sites that does not have an algorithm to run users dashboards. It does have algorithm type things that are opt-out, and many veteran users have, so it is important to 1. Reblog things you like! No one sees your likes unless they have that feature turned on or your likes are public and they're snooping. Likes are nice and I've never scoffed at seeing one and I'm sure no one else has! But Reblogs are what get a post under more eyes, you know?

2. REBLOG YOUR OWN WORK! You can determine how often and what you reblog of your own work!!! Did you post at a 'weird' time!? Reblog it! Did it not do as 'well' as you would have liked? Reblog it! Are you just super proud of the work you did? RE! BLOG! IT!

Anyway. This is so long, but I love you and your work and I'm so glad you shared it!

hey come here

reblog your own work. reblog it as much as you want. the dashboard is chronological (mostly) so you gotta put it back out there!! ok bye

[thevividgreenmoss]

Hey, no offense intended, but do you have any connection to the fieriframes blog that tumblr linked to yesterday? It @'s you several times. Sorry if you've been asked this a lot!

None taken! I feel like it really is at this point my responsibility to publicly address this since the people deserve to know the truth and while no harm has been meant at any point it's still not okay to keep people in the dark for too long cause then like what's even going on in there it could be anything but we can't even see...and after a certain point society can't be held responsible for how it react against whatever it is that is going on in those shadows like I mean it's only become more apparent in this post-Trump post-Capitol Hill riot moment the damage this kind of thing can cause how sick and twisted we all might become as a result...hopefully this can be the start of us coming together to heal and washing our hands of this whole affair that really did spiral out of control which again we didn't mean for that to happen I mean I can't speak for everyone involved but I personally especially didn't expect the related emergence of a lawsuit citing the stewarship of Gondor in the lord of the rings series as proof that the supreme court must overturn the results of our recent election and reinstate Donald Trump as president and I personally do NOT agree with what they're doing or who they're doing it for although I have to say I will defend their right to do what they're doing despite not agreeing with it or at least not with all of it I think they actually make some good points and yes even when it comes to the core of what they're saying I don't find any part of it objectionable if I'm being frank, if that's still even allowed? With cancel culture and everything but I mean the point is that even if the more I think about it and listen to both sides the more I have to say I do agree with all of it and I hope they're successful but it wasn't an intended consequence or one we can be reasonably expected to have foreseen lbut we still have to take responsibility that's called being an adult and it's maybe even part of being an American, adult or otherwise, even when it's hard to do but anyways as I'm rapidly approaching the limit of my capacity to articulate new if terribly incoherent thoughts having still not answered your basic question, I'm going to paste my response to All This from this morning, if that's okay. After all responsibility does and must start with response so:

Most of my relatives have always led very nondescript detached from influence or power in any capacity due to varying combinations of indifference & ineptitude sort of existences like despite varying socioeconomic contexts across generations and/or within different branches of the family there's a general trend of whatever the opposite of noteworthiness is lmao which honestly I feel is usually for the best, but there are two exceptions in the form of extended family six degrees of separation type distant connections to very despicable Pakistani political figures on my mom's side one of which is that two of grandpa's first cousins were childhood friends with Benazir Bhutto and apparently their mom at one point kind of like stopped letting them hang out due to like increasing (appropriate/understandable) political aversion but then Benazir's mom was like no she misses them so they started letting them hang out again which like idk situations like that can be awkward and I mean you're not responsible for somehow anticipating that this child would grow up to be a malevolent public presence along similar lines as her father already was at the time (also would carry on the paternal legacy by meeting a violent untimely end in one of those situations where history very perversely and, despite the malignant and violent impact that the victim themselves had on society, tragically rhymes with itself but that's a whole other thing) but yeah so I guess ultimately they ended up remaining in touch socially throughout their lives and apparently a picture of them at some function together ended up in a Time magazine feature at some point in the early 90s? All of which is to say that I think my equivalent brush with notoriety will go down as being the time a handful of people asked me what was going on with the whole Guy Fieri all over the dash situation like my version of a lifelong acquaintance with and one-time appearance in an extremely minor background role in the media saga surrounding the first woman to serve as head of state in a muslim majority nation, a member of one of the major political dynasties of the past fifty years, is when the weak association I have with fieriframes.tumblr.com that's based off me reflexively reblogging all of their posts and literally nothing else at all becomes a subject of faint interest on the day the aforementioned blog & its namesake became involved in a random promotional gimmick of some sort along with this dying but never dead website

I’ll Always Protect You

florence pugh x fem!reader

warnings: mention of death threats.

word count: 1.7k

summary: you and florence had been dating for a while. when she posts you on her Instagram, you receive a bunch of hate comments and florence defends you and your relationship.

request from @the-loving-quotes​

Dating Florence Pugh has been one of the greatest decisions you have ever made in your life. You both have managed to keep your relationship lowkey until she randomly posts you on her Instagram. It was a photo of you looking at this mountain view at sunset from the balcony. She captioned it “My happy place.” 

Your heart started to race as soon as you saw a photo of yourself on her Instagram-- and the fact that she tagged you almost made you pass out.

You looked through her comments and let’s just say most of it wasn't what you would have expected. Some were positive-- for example, there were comments that read:

“OH MY GOSH IT CONFIRMED! I'M SO HAPPY”

“I’m so proud of you <3”

“You guys are the absolute cutest!”

Then, there were comments that weren’t so positive. It was a mixture of homophobic comments and comments that said “Florence deserves better.”

Of course, they hurt, but you didn’t mind at first and chose to focus on the more positive comments. 

-

A couple days pass and you also decide to post Florence on your Instagram. As you hit “post,” your phone instantly started buzzing with notifications. Again, the comments were all a mixture of the positives and the negatives. However, you wanted to focus on the positive side and ignored the comments.

-

You posted Florence on your Instagram story, and you received a lot of DM’s. Although you don’t open your DM’s, you decided to check just for the hell of it. As soon as you swiped to your message requests, you instantly regretted swiping. 

“Kill yourself. You don’t deserve Florence.”

Tears started to well up in your eyes, but you quickly wiped them away when you heard Florence come into the living room.

“Dinner’s ready, darling,” she says, holding a wooden spoon.

“Hm? Oh, right. I’ll be there in a sec,” you respond.

“Is everything alright, love?” she walks towards you with a concerned look on her face.

You take a deep breath. “Yes, everything’s fine.” You clench your jaw hoping Florence would drop the subject.

She pouts and looks at you with worry. Florence knows every little detail about you. She knows that nothing is ever “fine,” when it follows with you clenching your jaw. However, Florence doesn’t like to overstep on your boundaries, so she drops the subject and figures she’ll ask you later. 

“Alright, love. C’mon, let's eat. I’ve made your favorite,” she says, giving you a soft smile.

-

You loved Florence’s cooking and you always made sure to compliment her dishes whenever she cooked. However, tonight was quiet. The two of you sat in silence, quietly eating your dinner. 

You were grateful that Florence knew to get off your back whenever you were in a mood. That’s one of the things that you appreciated most about her, her ability to understand your emotions and how you cope with them. 

You knew that she would eventually ask you what happened as you have both communicated that suffering in silence wasn’t healthy.

You finished dinner early and asked yourself to be excused. You headed to bed as soon as you finished your meal. Florence stayed in the kitchen to tidy up and to give you some more space.

-

Laying on your side, you couldn’t help but to grab your phone and scroll through your notifications. As hurt as you were already, you were too stubborn to gain some self-control. As terrible as that message was, your comment section got even worse. Not only was it filled with homophobic comments, but you were also getting sent death threats. You had checked Florence’s account and pressed on your photo. You noticed that she turned off the comments.

You felt the bed behind you dip as an arm wrapped around your torso.

“Hi,” Florence whispers, and she rests her chin on your shoulder.

“Hi,” you weakly respond. You sigh as you turn your phone off and place it on the bedside table. You turn around in Florence’s arm and face her.

Florence gave you a worried smile and she wiped the tears on your face. You were so busy scrolling through the hate comments that you hadn’t noticed that tears were falling from your eyes.

“Oh, my love.” Florence places a gentle kiss on your forehead. She then looks at you with worry in her eyes. Florence couldn’t imagine what was going through your mind.

“I know you saw the comments,” she begins, “I saw them too. As soon as I saw the hate comments, I immediately turned them off.”

You sniffled and took a deep breath. “I got death threats,” you say, your voice breaking.

“What?” Florence says, appalled. Florence could feel her heart race and feel herself be filled with rage.

“That’s it, I’m making a post, this is unbelievable,” Florence says getting up to get her phone.

“No, please, you don’t have to,” you plead, “it’ll only make things worse.”

“No it won’t, Y/n, I promise you,” Florence says, already typing in her notes.

“You can’t promise me something that you have no control over,” you say coldly.

Florence pauses. She looks over at you, takes a deep breath and pouts. She stares at you for a while, studying your face. Florence is the type of person to defend the people she loves and doesn’t care if it will give her a bad rep. You just so happen to be one of the people that Florence loves, and she will do whatever it takes to defend you and her love for you.

“It doesn’t matter, what matters is that someone I love is being sent death threats, so please, let me say something,” she says, reaching for your hand.

“I really don’t deserve you,” you sigh.

“You do Y/n, you deserve every bit of me as much as I deserve every bit of you,” Florence says, caressing your cheek. 

-

A few days passed and Florence posted a video on her Instagram regarding the hate you had been receiving. 

“To my “fans,” who have sent a tremendous amount of hate to my girlfriend, Y/n, kindly unfollow me. I do not need your negativity towards my relationship with her. The hate you throw at her is hate you throw at me. The death threats you throw at her, are also death threats you throw at me. It is not your place to tell me who I should and should not love, nor is it any of your business. I do not appreciate the comments you have thrown at her. She does not deserve it, and nor do I. I am happy with Y/n. She makes me a better person. So please, leave my relationship alone and stop sending my girlfriend death threats. I will not ask again.”

After watching the video, you were in shock. Even if you had talked about it a couple days prior, you still didn’t expect that she would actually post it. Florence kept the comments on and fortunately, it was filled with massive support from other celebrities. You were grateful.

-

Florence had an interview with Jimmy Kimmel this week to discuss her recent and future projects. Of course, her video regarding your relationship was a topic of discussion. You stayed backstage and watched Florence’s interview from her dressing room.

“Okay, I think everyone here has seen the video that you had recently posted regarding your relationship,” Jimmy says.

“Yeah, I hope so,” Florence chuckles nervously.

“So tell me, if you’re comfortable, why you had said what you needed to say?” he asks.

“Did you watch the video?” Florence says sarcastically, earning a couple laughs from the crowd. “Um, I figured that I needed to. I mean my girlfriend was getting sent death threats for no apparent reason and it needed to stop.” This earned Florence a clap from the audience.

“That’s fair. God, the internet is so toxic, isn’t it?” Jimmy complains.

“Yeah,” Florence agreed. “Y/n and I had been dating for a while now and we’d managed to keep it lowkey. I just thought that when I’d finally posted her that I wouldn’t receive such horrid comments. Which is why I felt the need to address this because I hate seeing the people I love get hurt.”

A couple people from the crowd “Awwed”

“So, tell me what it is about Y/n that just makes you so in love with her?” Jimmy asked curiously.

Florence smiled as she thought about the things that she loved most about you. “Her smile was something that caught my eyes right off the bat. She has such a kind smile and I would do everything just to keep her smiling.”

The crowd “Awwed” again.

“Also, Y/n is so loving. She won’t admit it because she likes to be that “tough” person on the outside, but inside she’s a big softie. She gives the best cuddles. I also love how she makes me tea every time I come home from filming.”

“Aww, that must be nice. I think we all need a Y/n in our life, right?” Jimmy says.

The camera pans to the crowd who was cheering and nodding their heads.

“Well, too bad, Y/n is only one person and I’m the lucky girl who has her,” Florence says wittily. 

The crowd laughed and clapped.

“Alright, well it was lovely having you, Florence,” Jimmy says, shaking Florence’s hand. “And that’s all for tonight, we’ll see you tomorrow!”

-

On the ride home, you rested your head on Florence’s shoulders.

“You really had to call me out, didn’t you?” you ask.

“Yeah, maybe just a little,” Florence says, making a gesture.

You chuckle and look at her. “Did I ever tell you that you are the most beautiful woman I’d ever laid my eyes on?”

“Yes, Y/n, you tell me everyday,” she says, grabbing your cheek.

You smile and close the gap between you. Florence melts into the kiss and moves her hand to the back of your head, running her hands through your hair. You pull away to catch some air and Florence rests her forehead against yours.

“I love you, Flo. Thank you for everything.”

“I love you too Y/n. and don’t thank me, you know I’ll always protect you.”

The End

[rpmemegraveyard]

🪦RISE FROM THE DEAD.🪦 psa blog. click here.

My intentions with this blog is to repost RP memes from either deactivated or deleted OP's. I've been in the RPC since 2014 and have seen a lot of memes pass me by. I often go through long-inactive RP blogs to see what I can find, and I repost them. This blog is also open to suggestions and dead meme finds for me to post on your behalf, as well. I may occasionally reblog rp memes that I enjoy on here for safekeeping, as well.

I try to list what year the OP deactivated, but tumblr implemented the whole 'deactivation year and sometimes date' in URL weirdly and it sometimes doesn't show up for some blogs. I take no credit for these memes unless explicitly tagged as original. If you want to get into weird discourse about how reposting literal text from long gone accounts and not claiming it as my own is a bad thing and 'stealing', you will be ignored. Please take a shower.

THIS BLOG WILL ACCEPT: Symbol memes, prompts, sentence starters, sentence packs, suggestions, headcanon memes, munday memes, essentially what you're used to. THIS BLOG WILL NOT ACCEPT: NSFW / Smut memes or anything related to them. Not trying to throw any shade but I think we have enough of those.

THIS IS NOT A RP BLOG. Do not send in meme symbols or prompts to the blog mod. I know sometimes people instinctually have reblog karma kick in but don't waste your ask limit.

OTHER STUFF;

This blog is run by one person (she / they). I mostly made this blog for people who practice reblog karma and/or swear they know a good meme but it's from a deactivated blog, making it nigh impossible to find it again. There's not much to say here. The only thing that is important to note is that personally I follow this DNI (free to use). If you don't like it, then you're probably not gonna like me, sorry.

Also, if I have you blocked, that is because I have a shared blocklist between blogs for my own safety and sanity. If you want to get upset about that, that's on you. Any weirdness will be blocked and not acknowledged, because I don't have time for that in this day and age.

Btw, just to make it crystal clear if I ever 'randomly' block somebody. I have a zero tolerance policy for people who have been called out for abuse and to extent their enablers. Again, refer to above image.

Addendum: Sometimes I post positivity memes for your followers to willingly send in with no obligation. If I see you being guilttrippy in the tags to your followers (ie: comments such as "pwease pwease send them in I NEED them"), you're also getting blocked. Zero tolerance for that sort of behavior in 2024, I can see it in my activity feed and I'm tired of fully grown adults doing it. Be respectful to your followers, they are not to be used like that. Your partners should be seen as your acquaintances and maybe friends. Not emotional crutches you try to fish for compliments with. This honestly goes for most memes-- Please don't beg your followers or try to guilt them for memes. It's bad practice.

I wanna write something related to the elections right now especially considering my family history with the Marcoses, but I can't on account of my medical condition. I'll write it one of these days though.

Being aromantic is tough, especially in a love-obsessed society and culture, but I feel so grateful to have lucked out with my mom.

I mean, yeah, she still says things like "You'll never know..." but she says it in a less adamant way that definitely doesn't imply that she doesn't believe me when I say it to her. I overheard her talking with my aunt saying that she was glad that I wasn't interested in relationships and both of them seem so understanding of me being aro.

She sometimes just randomly tells me stories of relatives and friends she had that lived fulfilling single lives in order to cheer me up when I lament amatonormativity and loneliness, and perks up whenever she hears real people who share my experience too!

Recently, I've noticed that she likes telling me about characters in the shows she watches that she thinks I'd relate to, and excitedly tells me when a character comes out as ace or aro or aroace.

Just- I'm so lucky to have my mom.

As much as I like the people firing the gunshots to keep rent low and purity twitter away from tumblr with cringeposting that would make 2012 blush, I feel like it's weirdly equally effective to just show them the cemetery at our backyard and be honest with how tumblr really runs right now since it's also driving those twitterinas away. Like, keep posting cringe of course, but I don't think they'd like us regardless of the amount of superwholock we bring back.

My #1 post of 2022

Being asexual is actually super fucking awesome in that there's so much diverse experiences within the community and they all subvert society's expectations in some way.

Like it's honestly so awesome that all of us have this unique view and relationship with society that adds more to known conversations and topics that most people may not even have cross their minds.

I just think it's so fucking cool and we should celebrate these diverse experiences more.

[eulaliasims]

Check In Tag

Thanks for the tag, @pixeldolly!

Why did you choose your url?

Eulalia means ‘sweetly speaking’ or ‘well spoken’, and when I was picking my latest internet pseudonym (b/c I’m a 90s baby and grew up hearing to NEVER use your real name on the internet or you will DIE) I went for something aspirational. I’m better at writing than talking, haha. The ‘sims’ part is probably obvious.

How long have you been on tumblr?

Uhhhhh... ball pit era (2014).

Do you have a queue tag?

Naw, my queue is only set to six posts a day at the moment. I feel like I should have a tag for not queued posts, since that’s when I randomly dump a bunch of decorating pictures onto people’s dash and run away.

Why did you start your blog in the first place?

Originally I made the account to follow simmers after the TS2 community on Livejournal died down; I lurked for a bit, then finally decided to share a few of my own pictures. It’s nice to be able to document my game like this and share it with other simmers.

Why did you choose your icon/pfp?

It’s a Picrew of myself, lol. (This one, by Poika.) I did icons with my sims for a while, but this Picrew was going around and I liked it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Why did you choose your header?

It’s Middleground, my main neighborhood, and it’s pretty. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

What’s your post with the most notes?

Mmmm, it’s either going to be the natural history museum or a piece of CC--lemme check--oh wait, no, it’s the hobby lot makeover tutorial! I forgot about that. And then this shitpost, which still makes me laugh.

How many mutuals do you have?

I have no idea! Some? Y’all are definitely in the double digits, I know that much.

How many followers do you have?

I don’t know, and I don’t want to know, tbh. It’s better for the obsessive part of my brain that latches onto things like that if I keep it hidden with xKit most of the time. >_>

How many people do you follow?

345. Mostly simblrs (and a couple Mass Effect/Dragon age blogs), and I know that there’s some inactive blogs in there.

Have you ever made a shitpost?

Once or twice. More often I draft them and then just delete them instead.

How often do you use tumblr each day?

If something else has my attention, zero times, otherwise I'll steal @pixeldolly‘s answer and say often enough.

Did you have a fight/argument with another blog once? who won?

lol, no. I am one of those people who prefers to merely observe fandom drama from a safe distance--in the case of simblr drama, it usually bypasses me entirely. If it’s not on my dash, I am not aware of it.

How do you feel about ‘you need to reblog this’ posts?

I don’t do that.

Do you like tag games?

They’re fun. Though sometimes I skip them depending on my brain spoons/whether I remember in a timely manner that someone tagged me. I’m also terrible at tagging other people. I try to only tag people who do them, and then sometimes the game’s already made the rounds by the time I end up doing it anyway!

Do you like ask games?

^^^^ See above! I usually only reblog sims-related ones, since, well, it’s a simblr.

Which of your mutuals do you think is tumblr famous?

Is this a thing? Idk, when I think of Tumblr fame, I think of drama and, like, the person who apparently went grave robbing for bones, so I’m gonna say thankfully none of them.

Do you have a crush on a mutual?

I certainly have a crush on some of their games, haha!

bvlnoriyas 12 moments of 2021!

I was tagged by @seonghwaminho and @merry-kwanmas (thank youuuuuuu for tagging me <3) to post my favorite or most popular post from each month this year. but! ive only been here for like 6 months so imma change it up and just do 12 moments regardless of month :)

one: seonghwa answer (ode to joy) edit! this is the first thing i made and posted on this account. it was inspired by answer and the kingdom stage and i was trying really hard to get my design brain back after school really burnt me out

two: poster set! this is what i was really really proud of. i made this one day and i felt like i was Back, ya know? it felt really nice to be so proud of something i made again

three: color palette edits! i used to make fun of people who made these back in the day bc silly 15 year old me thought i was Better and Above doing something so simple but i decided to bring them back as a meme and something i enjoyed and you guys really liked them 🥺 and it honestly inspired me to branch out and just do more once i kinda got really back into making things

four: album cover birthday edits! i got this idea randomly for yeosang and while they arent exactly my favorite, i do really like that i *kinda* got the song vibe down. i changed things up for jongho on tho so here are yeosang, san, mingi

tagged by the lovely @wingsyouburn - thanks bb! 💕

How many works do you have on AO3? 209?? I'm sorry what????

What’s your total AO3 word count? 958,942??? HOW????????????

How many fandoms have you written for and what are they? *cackles* Oh sweetheart, sit down. We're gonna be here for a while.

According to my AO3 account, I have 54 different fandoms tagged. Most of them are for video games, but the occasional anime sneaks in now and then. I also have a few MCU fics, one book fic, and a podcast fic. My most prolific fandom is Final Fantasy VI with 50 fics.

What are your top 5 fics by kudos?

Wings of Valor and Compassion (Pharah/Mercy - Overwatch)

No Safety in Desire (Urbosa/Zelda - Legend of Zelda)

Give Them Something to Talk About (Dina/Ellie - The Last of Us)

Finally, Beautiful Stranger (Aeris/Tifa - Final Fantasy VII)

Don't Bring Your Black Heart to Bed (Thanatos/Zagreus - Hades)

Glad to see everyone enjoying my quality gay shit. Also very amused that out of these five, three of them were from last year.

Do you respond to comments, why or why not? I do! Or I at least make a solid effort to do so! I usually can't really sit down to properly reply until the weekend, unless it's something super quick I can shoot off on my phone, so I hope people don't mind the wait.

What’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending? Depends on the flavor? For straight-up Bad Ending vibes, absolutely Limbo (I really need to crack out another horror fic, because I love those, even if the majority of fandom doesn't). For right-in-the-feels vibes, Waiting for the Dust to Settle was a recent one I did that just sucker punches you with bittersweet Oh No goodness. It also reminds me of In Another Perfect Life, which ends on a similar note. *squints* actually, these are all for Final Fantasy VIII, which is saying a lot about... something lol

Do you write crossovers? If so what is the craziest one you’ve written? Um... not really? I don't think I have? At least not in the traditional sense where characters from Fandom A interact with characters from Fandom B. I have written some fusion crossover stuff. If You Had Life Eternal comes to mind, where I took Jaina and Kael from WoW and plopped them in Diablo's setting, because reasons.

Have you ever received hate on a fic? I had someone leave a super homophobic comment on one of my Pharmercy fics back in the day, which like... dude, are you lost?? I've also gotten some general weird comments that have little to nothing to do with the fic. I do remember someone on FFN commented saying that I needed Jesus on one of my witch-y fics. Sigh.

Do you write smut? If so what kind? Yes. The delicious kind (I hope).

Have you ever had a fic translated? Probably?? I've had a handful of people over the years ask to translate my stuff, but I haven't seen anything pop up on AO3.

Have you ever co-written a fic before? Nope.

What’s your all-time favorite ship? LIKE JUST ONE???? My brain fluctuates when it comes to this, but I definitely have a type or two I always gravitate towards. The most recent addition is Keitaro/Natsuno (13 Sentinels), which lives in my head rent-free from now until I die. I also always find myself coming back to Celes/Setzer (FFVI) and Aeris/Tifa (FFVII).

What’s a WIP that you want to finish but don’t think you ever will? A bunch of 2016 drafts I started and then dropped when my life imploded. I've yet to revisit any of them and I'm not sure if I ever will at this point :\

What are your writing strengths? Apparently sneezing out 7k words without breaking a sweat.

What are your writing weaknesses? Sneezing out 7k words without breaking a sweat *sobs in a corner* ALSO TITLES I HATE TITLES

What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic? I'm... not sure I fully understand what this means? Like having characters speak in another language randomly? I did this sparingly in Darkness/Starlight, where I had Jidoor be a blend of French and Italian, thus giving Setzer an appropriate accent and the occasional French comment. I didn't translate those into English, because the POV character (Celes) wouldn't have understood what was being said. Plus any time Setzer did dip into it, he was speaking from the heart, but was too afraid to actually TELL her. So if anyone had half the mind to translate those bits, they'd find out Setzer said the most touching things to her in French.

ANYHOW. I honestly don't really do this much, especially when a handful of my fandoms are Japanese and I'm writing in English and we're just assuming everyone's talking in Japanese so... yeah. Take it or leave it, I guess.

What was the first fandom you wrote for? Like when I was 10??? A crossover between Sailor Moon and Final Fantasy VII because FUCK YOU I DO WHAT I WANT.

What’s your favorite fic you’ve written? You're killing me, smalls, and I ain't picking just one.

Darkness/Starlight is forever near and dear to my heart for being a labor of love for such a small, old fandom and my beloved rarepair.

Learn to Fly is one I love for the amount of research I put in (I replayed Pyre and took so many notes on both Ti'zo's and Rhae's speech patterns to get them just right) and the delightful, yet bittersweet messages it exudes.

Long Journey Home is another favorite, because I poured my heart into it and it's got one of my favorite lines and ending.

Of What's Left of Us and Who We Used to Be was my attempt at evoking the surreal, yet heartwrenching vibes from the series and again, I also poured my heart into it.

Before We Have Another Chance to Go Loving was me cramming a massive longfic idea I had in my head forever into a small triple drabble series and it's forever canon in my heart.

The Lies We Tell Ourselves is my most recent fic I've published, which I wrote/edited/polished in four days, but I'm tickled pink with how it turned out.

[seacottons]

— uni with atz pt. two

notes: swearing, fluff, mildly suggestive dialogue. tags: @latte-fairytaekwoon

seonghwa — [ early edu. + developmental psych. ]

extremely organized in all aspects of his life

your bookshelf at home consists of books on developmental studies in children.

if he isn't in class or volunteering, he's either cuddling with you or reading.

stressed 24/7.

takes very pretty and neat notes.

randomly spits out facts throughout the day.

sometimes, you join him during his volunteer hours at various daycares and schools.

is all the children's favorite teacher.

extremely patient and soft-spoken when it comes to working with even the most difficult child.

also loves being called 'teacher hwa'.

"i don't know, if i were you, i would make the students call me king san."

"they'll probably end up bullying you," seonghwa replies back.

you don't know how he has the patience for the amount of children he has to take care of.

takes you picture-book shopping with him for his students.

finds himself singing nursery rhymes while cooking or cleaning.

has polaroids of you two stuck on the fridge.

brings lint rollers to work.

gets worked up in public if a parent seems too neglectful in any way.

"y/n!" he tugs at your elbow and points with his jaw to the right, "look! his kid is just spilled all that paint on the floor, and he didn't even bat an eyelash!?"

"don't intervene again, please."

"okay, but-"

the whining of metal and steel cut him off, and the two of you jump in fright at the sound of a shelf falling apart.

"some people really shouldn't have kids."

whines when he comes back home that the paint stain and glitter just won't come off his clothes no matter how many times he rubs the spots with warm water.

or how he has mulch stuck in his socks and shoes from taking the kids outdoors to play.

you somehow always end up finding a googly eye or specks of glitter under the couch.

sometimes brings home finger-paintings with numerous colorful hearts and two stick figures in the middle.

"today's assignment was to paint what makes you happy."

you also help him stitch up little felt and cotton dolls for the kids to keep.

often gets sick from working with children.

and passes it onto you by accident.

you know he's had a bad day when you ask him how it went, and his face scrunches up in pain.

stormed into your shared apartment one day and made a beeline to the bathroom.

forty minutes later, he comes out, towel wrapped around his hips, face and chest flushed, and explains that a child accidentally peed on him.

gets flustered when you laugh at his demise.

sometimes uses his teacher voice when scolding you or your mutual friends.

and you all end up teasing him more anyway.

"do you use that tone in bed too, hwa?" yeosang asks one day. mingi and yunho splutter out in disbelief, followed by loud laughter.

you choked on your bite of cake at the sudden remark.

"what did i ever do to deserve this slander," seonghwa grumbles whilst patting your back.

he often stays up late making lesson plans for both his classes and ones to implement at work as well.

takes full advantage of his teacher's discount at shops and restaurants.

sometimes brags about it to his friends to get under their skin.

"you have it easy. just watching kids and getting free food," san says one day in the middle of their game of jenga.

"it's not easy at all," you hear seonghwa reprimand the younger, and laughter rings out from the other four guests.

"you're learning about children! what's so hard-"

you had a hunch that seonghwa purposely tilted the wooden tower to tumble over an unsuspecting san.

"y/n! your boyfriend is trying to murder me!"

seonghwa paces in circles around your apartment whilst studying for an upcoming exam.

asks you to quiz him on certain materials.

"correct! okay, can you define the preoperational stag-"

"how many kids do you want to have in the future?"

"..what?"

"kids. how many do you want to have with me?" he presses further, eyes trained on your face rather intently.

"can't this conversation wait until you finish studying?"

"no. i'm too curious," he licks at his chapped lips and leans in to poke your forehead, "i need to know. this is important information. please."

yeosang — [ biology pre-med ]

met you through your mutual friend, wooyoung, who invited him to live in your shared dorm.

"you didn't tell me you have a dog?" yeosang turns to wooyoung, brow quirked up whilst pointing to the 'beware of dog' sign on one of the bedroom doors.

"oh, i don't. i just put that up to mess with y/n," wooyoung dismissively explained while making a sandwich.

is the reason why you and wooyoung haven't killed each other yet.

asked you out after five months of moving with you and wooyoung.

designated one of the kitchen's shelves as a medical supply closet.

"because wooyoung always ends up hurting himself without doing anything."

"i do not."

stress is his middle name.

constantly contemplates his life decisions.

"wooyoung! shut up! i can't finish my essay with you blabbering every damn second!"

you had to get used to the sight of a full sized anatomical skeleton in his room.

"okay, but i'm not letting you fuck me with that thing in here."

later that night, wooyoung's heart nearly burst in his chest from fright.

"yeosang! why the fuck is your skeleton in my room!?"

some nights, during dinner, yeosang slams his obnoxiously large textbooks onto the table, and insists for the two of you to quiet down while he skims over the pages a few times.

"can't you just enjoy your meal for five-"

"no. now hush."

not only does he have labs, presentations, and essays to worry about, but he also got accepted for a pre-med internship at a local hospital.

hardly goes out anymore during his free time.

most dates include cuddling on the couch or baking something in the kitchen.

stays up late at night to complete assignments.

towers of thick books decorate his nightstand.

"no, yeosang. i really don't want to see you dissecting a cat," you grimace, turning quickly and shielding your eyes from his phone.

"why not?" yeosang whines softly, hand tugging the hem of your shirt with a frown, "it's not that bad, i promise-"

he's cut off when wooyoung snatches the phone from him with a loud cry, "gross! y/n, you're letting him touch you after he touched that?! and fuck- what is that smell?"

"that's formaldehyde. now give me back my phone before i dissect you next."

you join him at the lab when he has extra work piled up.

"you look so cute with a white coat and goggles."

you prod and poke him repeatedly, asking him numerous questions about the specimens in the lab.

"y/n! don't touch that!"

one day, wooyoung comes home sick.

you insist on taking him to see a doctor, only for him to emit a haughty laugh at you.

"why would i waste my time and money when i have yeosang here?"

"but woo, he didn't even get into med-school yet-"

wooyoung insists he doesn't need to see a professional, "yeosang is practically our live-in doctor! why do you think i begged him to move in?"

you roll your eyes, calling for yeosang to persuade the younger male.

"alright, tell me your symptoms," your boyfriend sighs, plopping down onto the couch beside you and wrapping an arm around your shoulders.

after wooyoung explains everything and takes his own temperature, he peers at yeosang for an answer, "well?"

"you're dying," yeosang nods simply.

wooyoung's visage pales, and he scrambles to sit up on the couch with a disturbed expression.

"what?"

yeosang is always studying.

always.

studying.

you insist for him to take a break sometimes.

"i can't. i have lab tomorrow. oh, and a paper."

"but you always say that!"

you attempt to tug him out of his seat.

"come on! just for an hour, and we'll be back. promise."

he's always reluctant at first, but finds himself agreeing later anyway.

enjoys the small dates at the nearby lake probably more than you do.

mingi — [ accounting ]

a gifted genius when it comes to numbers.

is your very own math tutor.

jokingly asks you to pay him back.

he accepts kisses and hugs. baked pastries are also a bonus.

"y/n? are you okay?" a hand waves in front of your face.

you blink at him wordlessly, mind fogged from the bombardment of information you just received, "sorry- you lost me. can you repeat the process again?"

he playfully smacks your shoulder with the ruler and stomps his bare feet onto the tiled floor, "this is the third time!"

"i'm sorry! you know how i am with math!"

he begs you to take classes with him as electives.

"sorry, baby. i love you, but there's no way i'll ever take statistics."

"okay, what about economics?"

"no."

"management? business administration!?"

"no and no."

"but y/n! it'll be fun! you'll be with me!"

always whines about how much he hates having to take 'stupid management classes' and the group projects that come along with them.

"they never take the assignments seriously!"

said group visits your apartment to work on projects with mingi.

"aren't you supposed to be working on that project?"

you watch as mingi and his friends suddenly erupt in an explosive argument about the game they were currently playing.

"yeosang! what the fuck!?"

"it's y/n's fault mingi was distracted!"

you let out an indignant squawk and glare at yeosang.

"that round didn't count."

"stop being a sore loser, san!"

"so.. i take it you didn't even start?" you grimace, peering over to the untouched books and papers on the coffee table.

"it's just management class. no big deal," san explains quickly with a dismissive wave of his hand before nudging your boyfriend with a glare, "you better not make us lose this time, or i'll kidnap y/n."

stays up late to finish other work that's due.

loves to wear big spectacles when studying.

it 'helps him focus'.

writes notes on his calculator and slides it towards you while you're both home studying.

'n-3^07-!'

"mingi, what is that?"

"read it upside down, you bum."

has a coffee mug with 'i love π' in big, bold, red letters.

refuses to throw it away even though the rim is chipped.

always bugs you about how you should have a budget plan.

insists on teaching you how to make spreadsheets on excel.

"i can't do this, mingi. too much numbers give me a headache."

"do you want my lucky glasses?"

rambles on about things related to his field, and you can only nod in confusion every time.

"how does your brain keep up with all of this?"

"easy. just be one with the numbers."

"that was a bad pun.."

"you're supposed to laugh!"

mingi was that typical student who complained about studying, but is always the one acing everything with the highest score.

"i should just quit university and become a stripper."

"you say that every exam week, and yet, you always pass with the highest grades," you mumble from the other side of the couch, absentmindedly highlighting a few sentences in your book.

"yeah, but studying is a pain in the ass," he exhaled with a loud groan, head thrown back against the back of the couch, "why me, y/n?"

you roll your eyes while reaching over to pat the side of his face in comfort.

"everything will work out just fine."

later that week, he joyfully bounces into your apartment with a large grin plastered on his face, "guess what?"

you snort in amusement.

"let me take a wild guess. you aced your exam."

"and guess who has the highest score?" he tugged you forward by your cheeks with a bright grin.

"yeosang?" the cheery expression on his features suddenly vanished, causing you to laugh, "i'm kidding."

likes to study while attached to your side, wearing comfortable pajamas and warm socks.

sulks whenever his stock investments drop further than he expects.

and is always in a good mood whenever the prices spike back up.

always has a horrible math pun up his sleeve.

sends you accounting memes and becomes a gloomy mess when you don't laugh or understand the joke.

"what if i propose to you with a math problem? and we have pie instead of cake?"

"please don't bring math into our love life."

yunho — [ broadcasting journalism ]

roommates with you, hongjoong, and jongho.

is called 'newspaper boy' by hongjoong.

is well-known around campus for being one of the student journalists for the university's newspaper.

you have the very first published paper, with his full name printed on the front, framed in the hallway of your dorm.

has the prettiest hands.

and longest fingers you've ever seen.

can put them to good use.

especially when typing out essays. they're practically blurred from how swift he is.

likes to ramble about current international events to jongho early in the morning. the latter pretends to understand, giving the other false hope.

jongho always sends you a pleading look to save you from your lover.

always carries a notebook.

article deadlines = stressed yunho.

complains that his friends are 'uncultured'.

helps you with your essays.

if he has enough time, he'll actually re-write it for you.

"was it really that bad?"

"it's okay, baby. you're good at other things."

"how come you don't re-write my papers?" jongho huffs from across the living room.

"you're not y/n."

interviews you and your other roommates for his projects.

you smile from behind him as he zooms in obnoxiously close to hongjoong's disgruntled expression.

"he zoomed in on my nose again, didn't he?" the blue haired male asks you.

"sorry, but that tomato sauce stain is really distracting me."

hongjoong nearly drops his fork.

"what stain!?" he furiously rubs his face with the back of his hand, "see! i told you that you always interview us at the most inconvenient time!"

is constantly writing.

can be very unorganized.

"who took my ap stylebook!?"

"can you stop shouting? it's 6 a.m., yunho!" hongjoong growls from his bedroom.

mingi and seonghwa often visit your dorm because they're usually partnered with yunho for an assignment.

it somehow always winds up with mingi and yunho fooling around, whilst seonghwa struggles to persuade them to help him with the work.

sometimes, you tag along to help film his public social experiment projects.

is a social-bug, so people are instantly drawn to him.

likes to cuddle with you while watching the films for his assignments.

you think most of them are pretty boring, but being in his lap and tucked against his chest makes up for it.

you like to add glittery stickers onto his video camera and tripod.

is very much infatuated with you, so he doesn't mind one bit.

applied for a paid broadcasting radio station/tv internship over the summer and was quickly accepted.

asks you to help him style his hair for his first day at work.

"but it's just a radio station. no one's going to see you?" jongho questions with a perplexed expression.

"i still need to look presentable!"

and later that day you quickly hush the two males beside you once the clock strikes 2 p.m.

"quiet! yunho should be on any second now!"

"i was just breathing?" hongjoong whispers weakly.

over dinner, jongho often mimics yunho's reporting voice.

"y/n, do i really sound like that?" yunho pouts as you and hongjoong burst into fits of laughter.

"aw, don't be sad. i love your reporter voice, baby."

will wake everyone up early the next morning by yelling at the top of his lungs with his reporter voice just to get back at you three for laughing at him.

The very first time Louis remembers hearing Harry Styles’ deep, deep voice, he’s just won gold at the World Equestrian Games and he’s officially back on Great Britain’s Olympic team. He’s also three sheets to the wind, drunk on victory and champagne, and there’s a gorgeous boy whispering in his ear. Life’s grand.

(AU: Louis and Harry are professional riders on the British Olympic team.)

💮Am I More Than You Bargained For Yet? by @afangirlfantasy (45k) | Mature

“It sounds to me like the people you’ve allowed to be a part of your life, don’t deserve even a fraction of a minute of it.” As they repeat over and over, Harry calls out to fate and destiny, asking them why that can’t be true? Why can’t Harry be deserving of love? Why can’t Harry be as special as Louis argues he is? Louis’ beliefs ring in Harry’s mind like the most hopeful of gospels, and Harry wants to proclaim them as his new religion. But when his hands reach out into the vast emptiness of his flat to grab them, to grab Louis, there’s only a shard of a memory to clutch onto.

Or

AU where Harry doesn’t know what it means to be in love, and Louis’ still in love with somebody else.

💮His Submission Series by tonystankyall (orphan_account) (152k) | Mature

Louis Tomlinson lives in a world where Domination and Submission is a norm. When you are born you are either branded Sub or Dom. Subs get a little pink or blue, depeneding on gender, series of swirls on the back of their neck. Doms get Red or Black, depending on gender, series of swirls on the back of their neck.

Louis Tomlinson was branded with a Blue tattoo and his day has finally come. The day of his 18th birthday where he will be randomly assigned a Dom. This dom could range from younger to older, poorer to richer, and male to female. You never knew what you were going to get. Some Doms were more harsher and stricter than others. Louis didn’t want a harsh Dom to submit to.

Harry Styles was branded with a Black tattoo and he just recieved in the mail that he was finally getting a submissive. Harry was a 32 year old man, settled in, and very very rich. He’s been waiting for an assigned submissive to be chosen for him for a very long time. His Dom friend, Zayn, has gotten his submissive two years prior, a little spit fire irish boy, Niall.

💮Hold On To The Words You Spoke (Anchored Down In The Throat) by @justletmegohome (13k) | Explicit

“No, no. Louis, just stop. It’s not stupid, it’s never stupid. Believe it or not, I care. I care so much. Do you honestly think I’d still have my dick in your ass if I didn’t?”

Louis chuckles at that, but it’s sad, Harry notes it’s not right. “That will change when I tell you.”

“Never.” Harry kisses every bit of his face he can reach, he has no idea how that can help but he’s going to do it anyways.

“I don’t like the way I sound. ’S all,” Louis says in one breath, going coy as soon as he’s done speaking, his eyes casting downwards.

For a moment, Harry can’t believe his ears. Or the words Louis just said even if he can see them hanging in the air between them. Harry is not even sure if he listened He doesn’t want to believe them, maybe that’s why he’s having a hard time coming up with his own words.

*** Basically, Louis is loud. And then he isn’t. Harry ties him up to find out why. ***

[wlwloverwrites]

this may be ignorant bc i’m not a writer on here but you get hundreds and hundreds of likes (way more than so many other authors i’ve seen) and people send you asks and interact that way what’s so special about reblogs:(? i reblog almost every nat fic of yours but i have 0 followers so i feel like it’s doing nothing and then feel bad when you get upset bc i can’t do more:( i don’t mean this in a snippy way i’m just sad that you’re leaving and am trying to make sense of it:((

hi anon, this didn’t come off as ignorant so you’re okay!

first off, i want to say thank you to all the ones that actually do reblog. a good 20ish of you are getting affected. i’m still thinking about a plan for y’all. you don’t go unnoticed by me ever. each reblog is cherished.

i am well aware that i get a lot of support from likes, but this is not instagram. this is tumblr, a completely different app where reblogs are much more important. reblogs help share my writing to new readers. likes don’t. even if you don’t have followers that post will show up in tags when you search for something in the tumblr app.

but it’s not really that. it’s the fact that i have close to 3,000 followers and only get 20 reblogs on some of my posts that have over 300-1,000 notes. i have made multiple posts about this before, yet i take them down cause i don’t want to seem pushy. the most i have is just over 1000 notes with 100 reblogs, with 6 of those reblogs being me. 10 of those comments are mine; however, that’s barely 10% of the people who interacted with the post actually supporting their support by rebloging.

i have to put up a reward, posting a new fic, in order to get a handful of reblogs. for example, i’ll post the next chapter of teachers pet if every post from the masterlist get over 100 reblogs. if i ever to say that, there will be a handful of people who will reblog more than once just to get the chapter. or i see people i’ve never seen randomly reblog my work.

i’d like to think i’m good with recognizing usernames and some of my followers. i know those that continuously reblog, rarely comment, and forward asks. so when i get all these random accounts reblog my stuff i know they lurk and only reblog when they want something.

why can’t they do that normally? why do i have to put a reward up that is not well deserved?

why can’t reblogging just be the normal?

[pan-magi]

Long Overdue

Note: This blog used to be pansdailyobsessions and has now had a name and url change (now, pan-magi). Post will include reasons for change.

Wow, wow, wow. It’s been just over four years since I posted here. I was planning to log into tumblr for the finality for a while and hadn’t really grasped how long it had been. My last post was supposed to be an update post… yeesh. I didn’t expect any activity but was surprised to see notes from the last few months. Whether or not people found my posts from reblogs or this blog itself, thank you. I’m not sure how many followers would still care, either from leaving tumblr behind or from moving past Magi content, yet I feel like I need to give some head’s up to anyone who wants it.

My original plan was to log into my tumblr account and delete everything (this includes this blog and my others). I’m not too worried about my others, since I never had too much there. My primary blog was mainly for reblogging, including from friends who have largely moved on from the platform. It's now essentially private so I can keep this one as is w/o much hassle. I hadn’t done anything on tumblr for years, and I wanted to move on and officially clear the URLs. It would be simple. When I finally gotten around to logging in, it was partly because I had fallen down the Magi rabbit hole again and I wanted to see some of my old stuff. I then saw the old notes and I couldn’t do it. I couldn’t simply clear everything.

Gut instinct beforehand said it would be okay. A lot of people had reblogged posts that will continue to see love, and someone who wants to find my posts can see it on a reblog for a tumblr that still exists. I have all my content saved on my computer if I want to see it again myself. I can’t do it.

However, this isn’t me coming back to be fully active on this blog. I have gifsets I’ll hopefully be able to do by the end of the year, but after that this will largely be an inactive blog. I will have a fuller explanation under the read more; I dislike large text blogs clogging dashboards and my homepage, so I’ll keep the general gist of it here.

New Name/URL: Why, if this will mainly be an archived blog in the future, did I bother with the name change? I started this blog with the idea that every few months or several months my interest will change and from that point on have a different singular focus. That never happened, and throughout this blog’s lifespan I stuck to Magi. I think pan-magi fits better now that I am sure it will stay a blog about Magi. All my tags for my posts have also been updated. I was never really happy with the word obsessions in the title either. It didn’t gel with me back when I made it but I couldn’t think of anything else. Plus, I don’t know if that word dinged with any spam p*rn bots that randomly followed me after I became inactive. I got a number of honest new follows in the years absent, but over half of them were spam accounts and only with this blog. I’m unclear if it’s because this was my most active or if it was the name (more on this below).

Important: Pan-magi is the url, but I tag posts with panmagi (the url was taken).

Archived, w/ Few New Posts: I will keep this blog here without deleting it for the distant future. However, I do not plan to be super active on this blog. There is a list of gifset ideas that I had way back then, and I want to complete them. After that, my ideas have run low for graphics and gifs and likely won’t post anymore. I hope they will be done soon but I can’t give a timeline. Reason: I got a new desktop that runs things a hundred times better, yet several of my programs were purchased for one computer only, including Photoshop. I no longer have it. I know there are cheaper programs, but I am an old dog and creature of habit, and Photoshop is the easiest for me to use. I’m saving money for it over the holidays though don’t know if I will be able to purchase it by then. Fingers crossed I can wrap up my gif content by the new year. I can’t promise it though.

I will still accept asks; requests are closed. Messages will be open but I won’t log in that frequently.

Fanart & Other Content (?): I may not have ideas for gifs but I have a number of fanart ideas. Not sure why or how my brain works, but that is how it is. I may post them here, but I’ve never been a fan of posting art on tumblr. While they haven’t been my most popular posts, that hasn’t bothered me (my sketches here have only been okay). I post whatever I enjoy and think of. However, tumblr has restrictions on canvas and file size that will hamper and compress what I post. Especially for short comics I want to work on and larger images it will prove to be problematic. As of now, I am unsure where I want to move to. Instagram has similar restrictions on size and ratio of images that work best on it. I stay away from Twitter for my mental health. DeviantArt remains the largest art centric platform I know, though I don’t know how viable or active it is these days. Wherever and if I ever want to publish my art, or other Magi fan content, I will make a separate blog with the information.

This tumblr blog will remain up no matter what, and all my gifs and graphic sets will be posted here. Tumblr, I believe, is the best for gifs and graphic content. Other types of content though… eh.

Tumblr in general: There is another reason why I want to predominately move on from tumblr, and why I originally wanted to delete everything. That being, tumblr is weird. On this blog, I had an older post flagged as adult. I assume it was the Sinbad gif in that gifset (the one where he meets Aladdin and Morgiana). I can understand that. But that gifset is a repost and collection of the original posts I made for the first season. The original post has remained untouched. I’m left confused. I probably will end up deleting the original too. I don’t want to leave this blog archived in the future and worry about one post that shows a rogue butt.

Tumblr has given me the most concern for security as well. There was one instance years ago of receiving an email about something problematic on my primary blog that I was left in the dark with. It was predominately a fandom reblog source, and I wasn’t given much information besides a warning about potentially posting/reblogging a political spam post. I reblogged a post talking about historical significance of WWI in Wonder Woman but I’m still unsure if that was the post that it was talking about. Maybe one of my Hunger Games posts? I don’t know. Maybe it was a mass email going out to everybody. Who knows, it was years ago but it did give me worry about reblogging ordinary fandom gifsets from then on. Back to this blog, I mentioned getting a lot of spam blogs randomly following me after I went inactive. It made me uncomfortable not knowing if they would try to contact me or post my content on adult-oriented sites without my knowledge. They never did and going through my follower list, it seems like they were deleted and cleared out and people following me are real people and not spam p*rn bots. That left me uneasy and I didn’t want to login for a long time.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That about wraps up my thoughts and this long update. I will be updating broken links (either because of my url change or external links that have gone inactive in some of my (x) insp posts) in the next couple days. I want to get back to gifsets here and wish it could be soon. After that, this blog will remain here with no more new content but for ease of browsing access. Thanks for the ride for anyone that wants to unfollow, no hard feelings :). And thank you for staying on if you do. It’s water on the bridge for me, but I wanted to make sure I gave some notice and farewell before I can eventually get my planned gifs and graphics done prior to keeping it up for archive purposes.

[crampdown]

got tagged by @thespiritofvexation @see-sawed and @lovely-menza (thaaanks :D) to answer some lovely questions~

1. Why did you choose your url?

I love the song “Clampdown” by The Clash almost as much as I love horrendous puns. And that’s how I got to a name that’s basically a period joke :^>

2. Any side blogs? if you have them, name them and why you have them.

Nah. But I am thinking of eventually creating a side blog since I’ve been drawing a lot of original stuff lately and not the fanart doodles that got me most of my followers in the first place. But I’m currently too lazy to make a new blog

3. How long have you been on tumblr?

Let’s say I’ve been aware of this infamous hellsite since 2016 mostly for some artists I liked back then. But I didn’t make an own account until late 2018 before finally posting stuff in 2019.

4. Do you have a queue tag?

No. I’ll spam ten to twenty rbs in a row and then vanish for the next three days again

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

Because I gained interest in everything classic rock back in summer 2018. I’ve always enjoyed this kind of music but didn’t bother to learn anything about the  musician in question least of all their NAME up until this point. But the “Yellow Submarine” film won me over and before I knew better, I started doodling the Beatles :^) however it would take me more than half a year before I finally gathered the courage to upload my drawings somewhere. At this point I’ve already gotten into Pink Floyd (cause I used some of their music as inspiration for a short comic but that’s another story). FUN FACT: Me being a music dummy not knowing anything about certain subgenres looked up “How do I tag Pink Floyd? Like, what are they?? Prog? Dunno what that is but okay! Gonna write that in the tags :D” And that’s how I accidentally catapulted myself into the prog niche of the Classic Rock Fandom. Hi.

6. Why did you choose your icon/pfp?

It’s the ugly-ass-sort-of-mascot-rabbit that originated from a three year old doodle of mine when I wanted to draw a furry parody, anthropomorphic rabbit but as disgusting as possible, sloppy schlong and all that jazz :^). But since you can’t see him in my header thanks to the ink bottle, he’s quite the looker. Also I love inking the most when it comes to arting around.

7. Why did you choose your header?

Made it myself and still am quite proud of it ^^

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

To this day still that one inktober drawing featuring the Maxwell’s Silver Hammer Recording session :D

9. How many mutuals do you have?

tbh the exact definition of “mutual” is beyond me so I’m not sure. Let’s just say there are definitely some people I love appearing on my dash

10. How many followers do you have?

495 as we speak ^^

11. How many people do you follow?

52 blogs respectively because I always need some time and consideration before following anyone

12. Have you ever made a shitpost?

I’m sure there are some cartoons I made counting as shitposts, at least that’s the category I’d put in any sort of meme redraw

13. How often do you use tumblr each day?

depends.

14. Did you ever have a fight/argument with another blog once? who won?

Sometimes “hOt tAkEs” will randomly appear on my dash and some of them really make my blood boil but not to the point I’d actually bother to interact with them. I just hate online drama way too much. Everytime I see internet discourse completely escalating about the most abstract of concepts I just wish these people would actually spend some time outside.

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

Oh speaking of random things on my dash that make my blood boil....! I wish :) everyone participating in :) blatant emotional manipulation :) a very pleasant “hope you’ll wet your sleeves while washing hands” :)

16. Do you like tag games?

yes ^^

17. Do you like ask games?

yeeeeess 

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

I thought the general opinion on tumblr fame is that it’s basically worthless? 

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

19. Do you have a crush on a mutual?

I don’t think so? However I love the things you people create <3
