ok so i’ve been on tumblr on pinterest for years. i have had various dead blogs on and off for years. but today i finally caved and got the tumblr app for mobile and now i need your help because something that reading tumblr posts on pinterest does NOT teach you is etiquette. like, site etiquette in general, but more specifically tag etiquette.

to that end i, a (semi) brand new tumblr user, am sending out a call to you, seasoned tumblr veterans, hoping to answer some of the following questions:

when is it appropriate to actually add a response in your reblog and when should you add your response as several run on tags instead? is it based on something other than funny factor or do i just go off vibes

re: tags like “via user”- i’m pretty sure i know what that means but when do i. do that

am i allowed to just go crazy go stupid? how many tags is too many. how long is too long. i have a feeling the answer is “yes” but it doesn’t hurt to ask

this one isn’t tag related but what is up with the like button because so far i’ve basically been using it as a save function. is there an actual save function that i missed? what do i do with the silly heart button is what i’m trying to say here

impart upon me your wisdom and perhaps someday i will be a real tumblr user, shitposting with the greats

in the end this post may turn out to be that of a hopeful fool but either way thank you for your time and consideration, i appreciate it greatly, have a wonderful day/night/whatever part of the circadian cycle you happen to be participating in at this time

#in short: help #i am but a baby user trying to make my way in this world #new user #genuine question #this post is made under the assumption that anyone here actually knows what’s happening #if that’s not true i apologize for the misunderstanding #how do i tag (tumblrs version)#disclaimer i’m not a swiftie i just thought of that and it made me giggle #oh also #the first thing i did was turn on chronological feed! so don’t worry about that one specific thing #everything else though assume i have absolutely no idea #ace chats

Book 2 au: sparring sessions and short hair katara

They like to have sparring sessions in order to keep their bending skills sharp. They allow themselves to go all out and not hold back at all cause they know if anyone got hurt, Katara could just heal them

But anyways, wouldn't it be kinda funny if Zuko accidentally burned Katara's hair tho? Aofkqldkkajfjd

The "I think we can save the hairloops" line is from @linnoya-writes thank you for that!! :>>
