last song: Taboo by Naomi Jon (this is basically a soundtrack to my current sterek wip I'm going mad)

currently watching: just finished Good Omens 2, crying on the floor, shaking, throwing up

currently reading: had the vicious desire to reread To Whom The Wolf King Bows by MadcapRomantic, Derek is so gentle with Stiles in this fic. Also Actions Speak Louder than Words by isthatbloodonhisshirt has been on my mind lately, such a beautiful dynamic and character relationship development. Also Dostoevsky

current obsession: [slams fists on the table] sterek in my current wip (the one with the secret mpreg + lust at the first sight + everybody wants Stiles because Plot + Derek falls first and hard and he's so fucking lonely and just wants Stiles to be his + Stiles who falls in love with him but it's a bad thing because Reasons afkdsjhajasksks + it's kinda dark)

Feel free to steal this, everybody 💖 (I feel like half of the fandom did this already I'm so late lol)

I don't know why but when he said he sampled the water of Qiaoying Village I just imagined him lapping it up on all fours when no one was looking so I doodled this up 💀💀

i've been in fandom spaces for about 18 years or so at this point and i never thought we'd hit a point where this has to be said

Zepotha will never be Goncharov because when it comes down to it, tumblr culture is collaborative, while tiktok culture is merely iterative, and those are not the same thing.

based off my friend's commentary whilst watching the 'Orion Pax' arc of Transformers Prime:

"I'm sorry, but if i woke up from a million year 'coma' and you asked me to call you 'LORD'... you need humbling'

edit: friend is @machinatings <3 they are slowly watching transformers

To illustrate this post by @mayahawkse I would like to visualize to you the difference:

A post in 2023:

A post in 2014:

A zoom out of the same post:

This is what a community looks like.

See how in 2023 almost all of the reblogs come from the OP, from their few hours/days in the tag search. Meanwhile in 2014 the % of reblogs from OP is insignificant, because most of the reblogs come from the reblogs within the fandom, within the micro-communities formed there. You didn't need to rely on tags, or search, or being featured. Because the community took care of you, made sure to pass the work between themselves and onto their blog and exposed their followers to it. It kept works alive for years.

It's not JUST the reblog/like ratio that causing this issue, it's the type of interaction people have. They're content with scrolling and liking the search engine, instead of actually having a reblogging relationship with other blogs in their community.

Anyways, if you want to see more content you like, the only true way to make it happen is to reblog it. Likes do not forward content in no way but making OP feel nice. Reblogs on the other hand make content eternal. They make it relevant, they make it exist outside of a fickle tumblr search that hardly works on the best of days.

If you want more of something, reblog it.
