Let’s talk (Re-blogs) — likes and comments

This is just my opinion but, I’m getting really tired of seeing (adult) authors constantly complaining about re-blogs, comments, and likes to their followers. Including How they are gonna move to another site, because of the lack of reblogs.

Look, I get that a lot of authors want readers to reblog their stuff because they want their work to go out there, and because it encourages them. Although; what gets to me is that they from what it looks like to me, are trying to force their readers into re-blogging their stuff by telling them that they are going to move to another site and never come back to Tumblr again. And that’s not okay, it is your followers, and readers' prerogative if they want to reblog your stuff, Not yours.

Personally, I don’t mind if readers or followers, don’t Reblog or comment on my stuff. Because it doesn’t affect me, it won’t hurt me. Don’t get me wrong, it makes me happy to know that others like my stuff, and I do appreciate the reblogs and nice comments, but I’m not going to force you into liking, Re-blogging, and commenting on my work.

Authors need to understand that your readers, do appreciate your stuff just by liking them, I want you all to know that your work comforts your readers and that is why they only like and follow you. Again, It’s not that your readers don’t appreciate your works, your works just gives them comfort and yes, sometimes your readers would like to share their comfort by re-blogging. But also, when your readers are feeling down or just not in the mood to do anything, they will only like your stuff. And some will just like it, because they like it.

Please, stop trying to force your readers into re-blogging, I promise that your readers and other readers will come out of their shells and start re-blogging your stuff. We just need to be patient and wait for them.

Don’t let the lack of re-blogs discourage you, your readers and followers appreciate your hard work, and they would like to continue reading your works on this site. Please don’t push them into it, just be understanding and have patience. I guarantee if you do two of those pieces of advice, some of your followers will start re-blogging and commenting on your stuff.

That is all I wanted to say today. Have patience and be kind everyone,

Be safe everyone, Have a good day and night, thank you for reading.

(If you have an opinion on this text, please be mature and kind in the comments section, or else I’ll block and report you for the hate and your behavior.)

Go outside everyone, spend time with your family, and get good grades/work hard at school and your jobs, But for now, just fucking chill (😂).

The secret Dungeon Meshi sauce that's getting people to eat better is that it's so non-judgmental. Senshi and the rest of the gang never talk about what not to eat besides things that taste bad and literal poison. They don't even talk about "health" that much besides the importance of a balanced diet. It's so much easier to eat well when you think of food simply as something your body needs, and that it's often worth the extra effort to make it taste good, especially when you understand how to connect "things your body needs" with "things that taste good"

more good news from tiktok: they’ve started blocking celebrities.

they’re calling it block party 2024. just blocking and ignoring countless celebrities who havent said shit about palestine. influencers, actors, anyone who went to the met gala, whatever, they’re getting blocked. and people keep talking about how cathartic it is, how good it feels, how they never realized they could DO that. there was some kind of subconscious law against blocking famous people, but it’s broken, and people are LOVING it. and it’s WORKING. a social media/digital advertising coordinator was talking about how ad companies are PANICKING, because they can’t accurately target anymore. so many big influencers, including fucking LIZZO started talking about palestine the MOMENT their follower counts started going down. and the best part? no one is forgiving them. lizzo posted a tiktok asking people to donate to palestinian families, and all the comments just said you’re a multimillionaire. put your money where your mouth is. blocked.

i feel like i’m witnessing the downfall of celebrity culture, right here right now. people are waking up.

What’s up with how the dunmeshi fandom just lies about this kind of stuff all the time. It is easily confirmable information that it was a monthly series, something incredibly common in the industry.

A not weekly magazine schedule is literally common !! Especially in the seinen shoujo and josei demographics, sometimes monthly, sometimes biweekly, sometimes every two months, sometimes seasonal! Please stop lying about how Dunmeshi was some special unique creation that defies all standards of manga just to hype it up because it is so clear that every single one of these comparisons is centered around Weekly Shonen Jump (and understand that SJ has many magazines under its brand that are monthly or semimonthly). Not everything is WSJ and it needs to stop being the only point of reference in conversations like this 🤧

Okay so hear me out...

BONUS CURSED CONTENT! Laios and Hunter have the same wolf Fursona:

EDIT: Following feedback, I’m changing the Willow/Chilchuck panel from “A parent in a child’s body who is just done with everyone’s shit” to “Carrying the team, Done with everyone’s shit.” I don’t want anything I produce to be hurtful or upsetting to anyone, so even though I don’t feel it’s as impactful, and least it’s not infantilising. This will probably achieve little to nothing now the meme has breached containment but it’s the least I can do. Thank you all for feedback.

guy who's stuck in a timeloop for so long he stops wanting to leave it. guy who started out trying to escape but slowly grew used to and became comforted by the familiarity of the repeating day. guy who is no longer who he was before the timeloop. guy who is offered a way out and violently refuses it because he can't leave, doesn't want to leave. guy who escapes the timeloop by chance or force or accident and doesn't know how to live anymore. guy who keeps going through motions that don't match the situation and keeps having conversations that aren't actually occurring. guy who panics every time he realizes he can't predict the next instant. guy who left the timeloop but still lives with it.

You know I used to think "tumblr's absolute refusal to actually engage with the Trolley Problem in favor of insisting that there must be a third, morally pure option that doesn't require them to make a hard decision and anyone who asks them to make a binary choice is just a short-sighted idiot is really fucking annoying, but I guess it's not actually doing any harm".

Anyway that was before we asked tumblr at large to decide between "guy aiding a genocide but making progress elsewhere" and "guy who would actively and enthusiastically participate in a genocide and would also make everything else much, much worse for everyone elsewhere" and the response was that there must be a third, morally pure option that doesn't require them to make a hard decision and that anyone who asks them to make a binary choice is a short-sighted idiot.

"photoshop/makeup culture is giving people unrealistic ideas about what normal skin looks like" yes i agree BUT: no one is doing it worse than the dark far side of the moon
