OMG, Your Marketing is SOOO Basic! Here’s How to Glow Up Your Brand, Bestie! 🚀💅
Hey bestie! 👋 Is your marketing as dry as last season’s memes? Are you still using those “classic” strategies like it’s 2010? 💀 Stop. Right. There. You deserve a marketing glow-up that’s hotter than your fave influencer’s latest collab drop. Let’s get you out of that marketing rut faster than you can say “algorithm change.” 😉
Step 1: Stop Ghosting Your Audience, Seriously! 👻
Babe, your audience is NOT your ex. Stop ghosting them with once-a-month posts and expecting them to care. That’s not how you build a squad! Consistency is key—post like it’s your job (because, umm, it kinda is?). Whether it’s TikTok dances, Insta Stories, or those random Twitter rants, just BE THERE. Show up and glow up, bestie!
Step 2: SEO Isn’t a Scary Monster Under Your Bed 🛌👾
SEO is not just for nerds who wear glasses and say things like “backlinks.” It’s literally your best friend that helps you get found online! Want that sweet, sweet organic traffic? You gotta flirt with Google, baby! Think keywords, think headlines that scream “CLICK ME,” think getting in bed with analytics. (Not literally. Unless you’re into that? No judgment.)
Step 3: Influencers Are Your New BFFs 👯‍♀️✨
So you think you don’t need influencers? That’s cute. But let’s be real: they’re basically the cool kids of the internet, and you NEED them at your lunch table. Slide into those DMs and collab your way to the top! Micro, macro, nano—you don’t need Kylie Jenner money to make it happen. Even that local fashionista with 10K followers could be your ticket to brand heaven.
Step 4: SMM Like You Mean It, Boo 📱❤️
Social Media Marketing isn’t just about posting random pics of your office dog (although, like, please do). It’s about turning your feed into the ultimate party everyone wants an invite to. You’re not just selling products, honey—you’re selling a vibe, a lifestyle, a whole dang mood. Engage, interact, and sprinkle emojis like they’re confetti at a TikTok party. 🎉
Step 5: PPC—Pretty Please Click 💸🤑
PPC is the thirsty attention-seeker you actually want around. Pay-Per-Click ads are like that friend who always gets into VIP—instant access and instant results. Whether it’s Google Ads, Facebook Ads, or some random platform the Gen Z kids are using, make sure you’re throwing your dollars where they can flex the hardest. Invest in PPC, because organic reach is as flaky as your last situationship.
Step 6: Be Real, Be Relatable, Be Ridiculous 🥳🤣
People love brands that have personality—so stop being boring! Share your fails, your weird behind-the-scenes moments, and that awkward time your CEO tried to do the latest TikTok challenge (spoiler: it was cringe, but everyone loved it). The internet loves authenticity. So, ditch the corporate speak and talk like you’re texting your BFF at 2 AM after three glasses of wine.
TL;DR: Stop Being Lame and Start Marketing Like a Boss 💅🔥
Marketing is not rocket science, but it IS a vibe. It’s a whole aesthetic. So, if your marketing strategy still smells like teen spirit (aka old and dusty), it’s time for a major glow-up. Get weird, get wild, and get those clicks, queen! The world is your content canvas, so paint it with memes, sass, and a little bit of marketing magic.
Now go out there and make the internet your playground. You got this, bestie! ✨🚀

For me w socmed its like. Everyone acts like its this hugely necessary public utility where your presence and "engagement" is MANDATORY, like your face your name your historical takes for the communal lederboard, and its like. Ok yes facebook insta twitter and tik tok HAVE starved real reporting institutions etc at this point, but its also like. All the people for all those years screeching abt tweets and acting like twitter was this hugely relevant public square were largely working IN media!!! So its like ofc it was hugely important to them, but for me?? I didnt need to see endless puff-piece articles ginning up clap backs on twitter from 2015 onward. I dont have an account!! It didnt enter my life!! Until all these people manifested twitter as this essentially public utility. AND NONE OF IT!!!!! is necessary!!!!!! Or required!!!!! To live life!!! But increasingly they're making it harder and harder for that to be true. And its like. You Could Just Log Off. For the love of god!!!!!!!!!
I think that for this, as usual, we can blame Facebook, who made it MANDATORY to have your real name/picture and interact on the internet as your "real life" self (whatever that means). And yes, there is some limited amount of value in that since the 90s were consumed with the "Scary Internet Where Scary Unknown People Are Scary," but the idea that it will make people more responsible has turned out to be total BS. Instead, people WILL post the most heinous and reprehensible shit under their own names on Facebook/Twitter, and it has empowered them to do more of that/build monetized followings out of being totally vile turdburglars, rather than less. Because it turns out that when you build a machine that rewards the rats for being awful, it incentivizes them to be MORE awful, so yeah. That whole "using your real name promotes accountability!!!" turns out to be a total lie, and, uh. Meta/Facebook just got fined €1.2 BILLION (approximately $1.3 billion) in Ireland for breaching EU data privacy rules, so it's not like they did anything good with it.
And like... no. None of it IS necessary. Sure, it can be lots of fun, it plays to the inherent self-absorption of most people (often too much so, truly), it's a good way to keep in contact with casual acquaintainces/extended family/people you don't see often, and etc etc. But we don't NEED any of it. There are other communication tools that humans have used successfully for millennia, and especially since the owners of social media have consistently pushed a platform that prioritizes any kind of engagement at any cost, where facts, truth, and/or the basic framework of democracy and civic society doesn't matter against the almighty pursuit of profit, I'm really not sure at this point that there's any way to argue that it hasn't been corrosively destructive. Even if you do use it and take some value out of it, you still have to acknowledge that it exists in this horribly distorted paradigm in so many ways.
Social media is not going away, obviously, and attempts to regulate it often tend to veer too far into "destroy the internet" territory, especially as conservatives want to gut Section 230 and liberals haven't figured out how to meaningfully moderate it without signing onto bills that give a lot of room to deliberate bad actors. (SCOTUS did recently decline to dismantle Section 230, so things are staying the way they are, for now.) So... yeah. We still have to figure out how to live with it and to find some way to make it overall a useful tool again, rather than just a boundlessly destructive one.

Hi.
My name is Sky.
I wanted to post about this way later than today. But since I wrote a friend about V and a very strange situation lead to M in my head I need to clear my brain with my good ol' friend Tumblr.
Earlier this year I had a strange thought about my life. I became 26 and realized that it has been 10 years since our first date. 09/22/2014 marks the first conversation via Facebook. We met earlier because he helped me to choose a game. Nevertheless - he was some kind of big idiot with a strange desire to subjugate girls that were way younger than him.
I thought that I was the one he was going to marry one day. I thought he was the savior I asked for. But that's really not the point of this posting.
Some days ago a friend of mine had the idea to look at a profile of one of her ex-boyfriends just to find out that he is now married and a father. My idiotic self looked up M. I knew his Insta for a longer time now because his "new" girlfriend was a friend of a friend - and she tagged him. Funny story tho - nothing for now.
When I opened their Instas, I was shocked. No tags in none of their Instas - instead: private profiles and changed pictures. They broke up after eight years. My inner child screamed because I felt some kind of strange relief - he betrayed me with her. Now they broke up. He tried to contact me several times after they became a couple to tell me that she was a bad girlfriend. That he didn't want to be her boyfriend and that he wanted me to come back to him. A friend of mine tried to show her these texts but she said, that it wasn't neccesary - nobody would have the power to bring them apart.
Eventually I laughed about the situation - I wouldn't do the same thing again. Something in my head says, that she saw all of the explicit content and they just laughed about me - together.
For me it is now a very strange situation. I went through some old messages and saw things that weren't his fault initally. And some days - I can't lie to this - I asked myself the big "IF". Some days I am pretty afraid that he tries to contact me again just to tell me that he is free and wants to "try again" now that we are older. (Luckily enough nobody is ever reading this...) I'm not afraid because I could say "yes" (I'm in a pretty good relationship) but because he's still giving me anxiety attacks. I saw him... 5 years ago when he ran into Vs store just to say hello and my heart has never beaten this fast. I've never felt such a big yet scary trembling in my whole body. He won't be able to contact me - I blocked all his socials in 2017.
Funny enough to see his now-ex-gf with the same glasses as I have.
I'm not the kind of broken I used to be. I need to admit, that I feel free now that I know that he and this girl had a breakup.
And perhaps that's it. For the moment. We need to talk about V next time. Bye old friend, Tumblr. ♥

A is for Apartment:
This literally how I imagine his apartment to look like!
B is for Baggage:
I’d say he only packed the essentials. So gold and jewels for sure, maybe a dagger. And a satchel with a few of his clothes but not so much because he knew he’d have to change in order to blend.
C is for Clothes:
His go to outfit in the modern world? Easy. Jeans and a black/dark tshirt. Add a leather jacket because why not ;) if he’s feeling fancy, a nice dark suit.
D is for Drink:
Dude is tea drinker. So he’d love all the different teas there is. He’s gotten to like black coffee. But he’s more of a tea drinker. Also, he wouldn’t admit it aloud but he’d like pink lemonade.
E is for Electricity:
‘“This is what Adrian’s father works with? Gods…how peculiar but useful!”
F is for Food:
Aemond strikes me as the type to like sushi. Idk why but I see him ordering all kinds of rolls. He’d go to restaurants where they have the conveyor thing where you can grab whatever roll you want.
G is for Grateful:
That finding someone is fairly easy all thanks to technology 😅 how he quickly becomes the next Joe Goldberg.
H is for Hair:
He cuts and dyes his hair! 😭 but after that he starts buying all sorts of product and his hair grows back out again!
I is for Invention:
The computer and car! He’d want to learn how to drive (somehow lol) but would be cautious because he remembers the car accident Adrian told him she was in.
J is for Jamming:
Dude becomes addicted to rock. All sorts of rock. Alternative, soft rock, heavy metal, punk. That’s all him.
K is for Keys:
After getting to know Isabelle more I imagine his keychain to be filled with pins and maybe even stickers if they can stay on 😅
L is for Leisure:
You mean other than spy on Adrian and his daughters? He’d be learning how to use a computer properly and learn more about the modern world. He’d definitely go to a library. He can’t check out books (hello no ID) so he’d read there and catch up on history.
M is Map:
Europe. Y’all know he’d rather be in Europe.
N is Name:
He’d stick with his first name.
O is for Objects:
The object that brought him to the modern world. Which I won’t say what it is ;)
P is for Pets:
His apartment wouldn’t allow any pets but he’d definitely get either a grumpy cat or a scary looking (but a total sweetheart) doggie.
Q is for Questions:
Oh so many things. This is a brand new world for him. The questions are endless!!!
R is for Routine:
Wake up, shower, drink coffee, either skip or has a quick breakfast, follow Adrian and his daughters. Wander around the city, check on Adrian and his daughters from afar. Leave to do some solo stuff like research/learn and then return to Adrian and his girls when it’s nearing the end of the school day and Adrian leaves her job.
S is for Social Media:
Dude, he’s an old man when it comes to social media. He’s the boomer in this equation. But he’d make a insta or Facebook with a fake name so he can follow Adrian and by extension also Julieta so he can see what she has up on the internet.
T is for Toilet:
That the toilet saves a lot of time and is more clean. Plus toilet paper? He loved that stuff.
U is for Upbeat:
Y’all his family. I’m telling you he’s determined to be in their lives.
V is Vehicles:
After he learns how to drive he would buy a motorcycle. A fuckin’ Harley. I can’t picture him driving anything else.
W is for Weather:
It’s fairly the same as King’s Landing. But he’d like it more when it rains. Unlike Adrian who likes the sunshine.
X is for X-Ray:
If he’s alone then he wont be shy to walk around in his birthday suit. This is his new home after all. He needs to feel comfortable living there.
Y is for Ying and Yang:
Being with his wife and daughters. Thomas who? Oh he’s gone…or he likes to think so.
Z is for Zzz:
Since he only has a mattress at the beginning the couch is where he sleeps before he gets the rest of his furniture.
Aemond in the Modern World (Alphabet!)

I've kinda cracked the code on why frenchbay bratz prices are even worse than other places where prices have gone way up. It's down to about 3 people (mid twenties nice disposable income, how do I know? One linked me to their insta and french bratz collectors are suggested to me because Facebook is scary) who are willing to spend large amounts on Bratz and are reselling their dupes at that same price which led to the rest of bratz sellers following suit. I hoped the prices would drop after 6 months of stuff going unbought but nope. It's always been a bit of an odd market, i used to do the bulk of my bratz purchases on ukbay before the $18 global shipping racket.

Your Cash is Worthless, the Rise of Cashless Payments and E-Commerce  - Kelsey Koswick
You know how kids today think a floppy disc image is just the “save button” and have no idea that a floppy disc was an actual thing?  Or that texting began with T9 (an ancient form of language) and you could only text after 9pm since that’s when it was free?  Hot take but you heard it here first, physical coins and bills will be nostalgic memories and the next generation will have no clue that people would ACTUALLY use the physical objects to buy stuff. 
Tumblr media
I know this may sound far fetched but the world has been shifting to cashless/contactless/credit card free payments for a while and recent events have only poured gasoline on the cashless movement.  Prior to COVID-19, U.S. e-commerce sales were an estimated $600 billion, and had an average growth of 126% year over year.  In 2020, e-commerce sales are expected to be at $709 billion, a growth of 146%, the largest growth of e-commerce in a year according to Forbes.  And the U.S. is not the only country seeing this trend.  In Italy, where cash is the preferred payment method, the volume of e-commerce sales surged an estimated 80% as reported by the New York Times.   To keep up with the trends, many credit card providers lowered limits, provided instant e-credit card for e-commerce upon approval (vs. waiting a few days to receive your card to use) and new payment platforms such as Venmo have launched their own credit cards/contactless payment options to compete.  
Additionally, many venues, retailers and sports teams for example, have taken cashless and contactless to the next level.  In the 2020 season, the Jacksonville Jaguars teamed up with tech company Tappit, to launch their own cashless/contactless payment system as TIAA Bank Field called “JagsPay”. The club has completely eliminated cash payments as an option in their stadium. Fans credit cards can be directly synced to the club’s app where JagsPay lives to purchase merch, tickets, and food.  For those that bring cash?  Kiosks have been set up in the stadium to collect cash and disperse a pre-paid JagsPay card with your cash uploaded to the card. Now, there is no formal data saying that cash transmit the virus.  But the perception of money being “dirty” and touching shared objects such as money, has only increased the desire to go cashless.  In addition, with teams and vendors offering these initiatives during these times, has allowed for easier acceptance and behavior change that would have been much more challenging in a non-COVID world.
youtube
Sports teams aren’t the only ones leaning into contactless payments and e-commerce.  Many social media apps are changing their platforms to integrate with e-commerce experiences, allowing social media platforms not only a way to connect with other users but a way for merchants to connect with you.  E-Commerce giant, Shopify, has recently partnered with social media tycoon TikTok to launch an integrated shopping experience on the platform.  See something you like?  Chances are you’ll be able to buy it right off of TikTok soon.  The partnership now allows for merchants to push out advertising and have access to TikTok’s younger audience, allowing the merchants to directly target and engage with customers in a more authentic and direct way.  The integration also decreases the time of the buyers journey allowing for that quick, need for speed shopping experience we all now crave.   TikTok is just the latest social platform to integrate to the contactless/cashless/e-commerce phase, as we’ve seen Pinterest, Instagram and Facebook provide these options as well.
Tumblr media
So what does this all mean?  The most obvious answer is spending habits are changing, shopping is becoming much faster, easier and digitized.  But there’s an underlying benefit to merchants (and possibly you) to a cashless, digital shopping experience?  By integrating payments on an app, through social channels or what have you, payments companies and merchants now have a much stronger understanding of customer preferences, habits and interests with all of your payment history being collected digitally.  With all of this data, merchants will be able to curate customized content and products for individual users, stores will be able to understand shopping trends better, and venues can have better insights on their fans purchasing habits in and out of the stadium.  All of this may sound either really scary or really awesome.  Gone could be the days of scrolling through websites to find that one shirt that speaks to you.  Now, it’ll be the first sponsored post on your insta, click twice and in 2 days it’s at your doorstep for that party on Friday night. Creepy or cool?  I’ll let you be the judge.  Overall, do I think cash is going to be obsolete tomorrow? No and probably not for a long time.  But I do believe this, recent events have dramatically shifted behaviors at a rate the world has never seen before (especially with financial decisions) and lowered barriers to entry for acceptance of our contactless world and we will be there much sooner than you think!

word hi ok here’s some info on annie ....  uhmMmgm.... ok
stats:
full name: annaleise grace suh nicknames: annie. call them anything else and you’ll get bit age: twenty one  birthday: october 27, 1999 chart: scorpio sun / gemini moon / taurus rising gender: demi girl pronouns: they / them & she / her sexuality: bisexual & biromantic  height: 5′9 tattoos: they shamelessly have like 7 of their own little doodles tattooed really small on their right bicep and one on their ankle too piercings: three earlobe piercings on each ear, double helix on their right ear, a nose stud
blackmail: 
as a famous artist, their art was spotted by a drug ring who launders money. they willingly sell their art through the ring as a means to transport both drugs and money, taking a cut of the cash and allowing the ring’s connections to boost their fame so they’ll stay quiet about it.
they did an excessive amount of philanthropy work in their second year at the university and posed it as charity work, but actually was doing mandated community service after being charged with theft
annie's family routinely and secretly took money from the kojima family to stay afloat and only stopped once they were caught. they were sued in civil court by the kojima's because of it and lost the case, leaving the suh family near penniless.
backstory:
this is a lot and i am sorry
tw: drugs
annie had a … pretty normal childhood. seriously like, it’s bland. nothing special so i’ll keep this brief. they were born in alabama and lived there for a single year before moving and was raised in a house in hartford, ct to two loving parents. although they weren’t incredibly well off, they always made sure there was a pack of ice cream sandwiches in the freezer and clearance rack flowers on the kitchen table. annie was posted up outside of the house with chalk drawing every little thing their mind could come up with every single day even though their parents desperately wished they were inside playing with the little doctor’s kit that they got them for their ninth birthday. but no ❤️annie was determined to be an artist despite their parent’s early pleads not to be. and annie’s never been one to take signals correctly in their life so their only child ass took this as a sign to start being edgy and self absorbed, focusing so much on themselves that they kind of shut their family out and wasn’t entirely aware of potentially sketchy things their parents did to keep money in the bank account. fr they just became like ... roommates and didn’t talk. the last time they spoke was when annie needed a lawyer last year. 
in high school, annie was a weird mix of tropes. they were the weird mysterious kid in the back of your english class who went on rants about how annoying romeo & juliet and romance are and the one who was president of clubs you’ve never even heard of and the underclassman who was friends with all the scary seniors (and later became the scary senior). in their junior year, they also conveniently went viral for a series of paintings they made in ap art class. it started locally and with being kinda famous on facebook to big gallery installations that had pieces which conveniently fit the aesthetics of mansions and big buyers. seriously, fame came fast for annie and by the end of their senior year they were well known enough to catch the eye of a drug ring who offered to bass boost it all for the small price of taking part in the sales of their art so the dealers can put a couple grams of cocaine in one of their lil pottery pieces and end up with way more money than they started with. 
yale thought annie’s fame and art and obscene amount of followers on instagram was kinda sexy so they were offered a full ride and gladly accepted and sells off all of their paintings and pottery pieces they make in class because why not ❤️ so here they are. with like a million followers on their art instagram and a big ego.
and annie’s a kleptomaniac, honestly. there’s no deep backstory as to why they decided to steal a pair of diamond earrings last year besides the fact that they wanted to. thankfully the judge let them off with community service, but you bet they spun that story to their advantage as soon as they could. if you saw annie posted up on their insta story picking up trash off of the highway with a big smile and “making time to clean up our highways!” across the bottom in pretty cursive, yes you did. 
personality: 
annie’s entire personality is one big paradox and then some.
they keep their life as a ✨famous person ✨ kind of bland so people won’t know a lot about them at the surface level unless they do some research. like they’ve got a main art instagram and stuff but then a personal one that you’ve gotta search for and also just ... doesn’t do interviews or anything like that. 
annie really loves people. like they crave small talk and holding the door open for people and smiling at people when they walk by them on campus. but on a deeper level, it’s a rarity that they’re good with others. seriously, they don’t know what the word communication means. if annie has a close friend or s.o. who things work perfectly well with and things are understood, that’s probably pure coincidence. they just kind of expect to understand people and have others understand them. things probably are fine to a certain point, like making small talk with whoever whenever, but i imagine it can only go so far lmao. like when you try to get close to annie, you’ll probably get sent a 400 word text message about needing space but then the next day they’re asking you to come over for four loko friday. mixed signal realness.
and even tho they love people and being surface level and nice and all, as seen in the tragic dropping of muse i, annie is volatile as hell! sometimes they’ll be mean just to entertain themselves bc they’re bored or they just get the urge or they feel like there’s a reason even if there’s not or something ... idk you never know with them. there are sure as hell days too when they just don’t even try to be nice to others either. annie’s got a temper and they go back and forth.
they lowkey crave strict control over their image but also love it when people think about them and give them attention. like ... yes they are having a breakdown daily about the blackmailer but they also deep down are like aw <3 
there’s part of them that wants cute romance ... the pottery scene in ghost ... painting their significant other ... all of that ... but they’ve got some deep rooted issues that make them think they don’t really need anyone. that maybe nobody will love them. even though they were the one that shut their parents out, their mind Loves to twist that situation to make it seem like they could’ve tried harder to get to know annie or support her or some shit bruh idk annie is so confusing.
ok but all the bad stuff aside .... if you actually like crack their code and get to know the real annie ..... they’re like kinda genuine and cool ig. they give really good advice and are extremely thoughtful and probably will make paintings inspired by you and maybe will gift you a handmade teapot and cook you your favorite dish if you talk about it once. annie is pretty funny too and they really have no fears because they are so self assured. they are SO shameless at times, even though it hurts them a lot more than it helps them. annie spends just about any free moment they get at the art studio. they’re always zooming with either dried clay all over their hands or paint on their jeans because they probably didn’t notice the time. really love memes like these ones. constantly wears big stompy boots. i really hope u get the picture i can’t write anymore
this is a tik tok that explains them well https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMJufQVbP/
and here is their pinterest https://www.pinterest.com/mcvingparts/annie/

It’s Time to Say Goodbye
For eight years, I’ve been an active member of various roleplay communities on tumblr, where I worked on my writing and where my love for graphic design really picked up.
As of today, I am leaving tumblr, indefinitely.
This decision wasn’t easy nor was it made overnight but... I came to ease with it earlier today. I was just sitting there, thinking about how unhappy I’ve been with feeling like an outsider that feels like no one wants around, which sucks.
I loved my time here before, but I also started to resent how much time I spent here. It felt more like a chore than a hobby. A hobby is supposed to give you something to do and with my frequent job search as well as my passion for creating stories worth yelling picking back up, I made a choice to let tumblr go. I owe it to myself to leave so I can succeed in the fields I want to go into.
Back in January, I celebrated my twenty fourth birthday. That means from the time I was sixteen to the time I was twenty four, I spent my time on this website. And I think I’m just tired. There’s a ton of drama that I just don’t think I have the energy for anymore.
But first, before I go, I do want to address a couple of people.
To the people I met through this website who I consider my friends, I love you so much. Your strength and your compassion as well as your writing is what inspired me to push forward. It’s how I met in person three of my closest friends. I couldn’t be more thankful that we got to experience this together and that a lifetime of memories has been made. I hope we stay in touch.
For my new friends and for those who are doubting themselves, please stay in touch. I value you as a person and you are worth more than you think. Do not allow this website to tear down your self esteem like it did mine. Don’t allow yourself to fall victim to people. Period. You’re stronger than you think.
To my former friends, to those who wanted to part ways: should you find your way onto this blog, just know that even if we don’t talk anymore, I want you to know that you’re a good person and you deserve the world and more. I wish we could’ve reconciled but I understand. I also understand that I’m a brat, I’m not just passive but also aggressive. I’m sorry if I tampered with your experience and I wish nothing but the best for you.
I’m leaving my blogs open for a while but eventually, I’ll come to collect the urls and hoard them on a blog.
The steps I’m taking are scary and I’m basically stepping into the unknown. I don’t know if I’ll be back. But. I would like to invite you to follow my Instagram and Twitter, add me on Snapchat and Facebook, to keep the conversation open.
I’m, in a way, retiring this website and hobby to follow my career. Effective now.
So, goodbye. Please take care of each other and stay kind.

Hi bub! How are you? I’m back from the dead to say I’m watching the documentary recommended and I have so many thoughts about it. And mostly having to do about how parents are raising their children. And how it affects a child’s selfsteem/selfworth and perception from reality. Which makes how susceptible they’re to “tech manipulation”. And I’m just in the middle of it! It is indeed extremely interesting. Especially when I compare what I’m watching (the family in the docu) and my personal life.
The other part I’m thinking about is simply the psychological part of a human being. We’re selfish by nature, but at the same time we feel the need to be part of something/to be in. And the marketing team of those companies excel in this aspect. It’s as they said in the beginning, ppl create their bubble and are presented content similar to what they’re like. but the question is: do ppl want to pop that bubble? Do ppl want to be exposed to a diff thought they have? And do companies want that?
Another thought that popped now: did the technology changed us or just enhanced our behavior? Turned into a more favorable environment? How would the world be if we didn’t have technology available? I think internet/tech etc inevitable. Our “luck” it is available to the general population and not only to ppl of power. At the same time it can manipulate masses, it also incites thoughts of doubt about what it’s real or fake. It stimulates thought. Stimulates some ppl to search for knowledge.
I think about those things a lot. Maybe they’re silly thoughts. It’s really subjective. At the same time all that tech is available to us to use for good, humans will be humans forever, and a lot of them will use it for something bad that favors them. Sorry I’m just rambling. It’s 1:34 am and it spurred many thoughts! I usually hate documentaries, but this one is fascinating! I totally agree with you that ppl should watch it and know what’s really happens behind the curtains!
//
hello!!! i’m so glad you watched the social dilemma! i really think it’s a wonderful documentary. didn’t really like the acting bits in it... i feel like they should’ve just gone full documentary mode but that’s alright. anyway, i feel like I and maybe you, watched social media change gradually. back in the day in like 2008/2009, on facebook, my friends and i would post goofy pictures and silly posts... like none of them were of us trying to look particularly amazing or whatever but nowadays 14 or 15 year olds have these insane insta profiles with like you know super aesthetic posts and really nice clothes like real high effort stuff. nothing wrong with it obviously but it’s just so much has changed and i can defo see how other kids feel bad about themselves when they see stuff like that...
it’s just so odd. facebook, twitter, instagram, all of these platforms have changed so much from when i first started using them. the fact that the software engineer in the docu said only 5 people in the entire company knows how the algorithm works, and even so they think nobody really knows how it functions in its entirety... that is scary. also the information hemisphere that occurs within social media is so dangerous and i feel like i get trapped in it too. it’s like i don’t want to see news from conservative channels that sensationalize things, but that thought in itself is also wrong. i should also want to know what happens on the other side, how other people think and why they think that way. i don’t have to agree but i should at least listen. social media has definitely amplified this polarity that exists in the world.
also, i feel like news outlets are increasingly becoming like entertainment outlets. they present facts, peppered in with opinions from their anchors which i actually don’t really like. they end up sensationalizing things and detract people away from the facts, or people may confuse opinions of the anchors as facts.
technology is great and i would never revert back to a time without it. i’m that person that has benefited so much from learning online, be it on youtube or through articles and etc. it’s just the people that use social media for nefarious uses that ruins it. first, the political gain which is something that is inexcusable and secondly for monetary gain. it’s funny because i know how these things work both ways for the latter. you can make so much money on the internet if you know how to target ads right... but i also know how bad it is that it works... like the fact that it preys on all of us, on our data... it’s kinda scary tbh.
anyway, money is sort of the root of all evil. the social media outlets developed that way because of their business model, because they wanted to make money. they realized selling people ads about things they like, recommending things to people that like them, things that are surprising, fake, and ‘sensational’ makes them more money. though the people in the documentary are optimistic about the fact that we can ‘fix’ things, i don’t think we will achieve that any time soon. it will take us more than 10 years at the minimum i think. laws take forever to pass and god knows these billionaire owners will never be like hmm lets make my company earn less money because these algos are actually harmful to the public... yeah hell no, they’ll never do that unless the public or the government forces them to. but yes loved the documentary and i hope more people watch it!!!

Hello and probably Goodbye, my friends.
having a tumblr since 2013 and no facebook/insta/twitter ever, i just gotta put my final worlds out here in hopes that maybe a few of my followers will pass on the message, before the end of tumblr.
I truly believe that Tumblr is finally coming to a close.
and here is why:
(if you read to the end there’s a treat for you)
————
Our NSFW content is gone, and so is our heartbeat. we can’t deny it much longer...
How is our penises and hearts connected? stay with me, i’m getting there
The people who have left this site, are those who were our creators.
They were our artists, our fanfic writers, our character creators, our loud sjws, our people who were not afraid to put their voices out there. our people who covered ANY and EVERY topic in gory and glorifying detail. our Performers, if you will.
they were our people who spoke so the rest of us could listen. They were our extroverts... i guess
Let’s start from the beginning. Yes this will be long, but it’s really only for the kids who have been here since at least 2015, my people need to hear this before they move on as well..
——————————-
The reason all of us joined this site, is because (dare i say it) we all have the same mind set. maybe even the same ideals in the end. why?
We were the first website that was so constantly inappropriate that we weren’t afraid to hear ANYTHING.
Taboo who??? We don’t beat around the fucking bush.
We take any and every subject and beat it to death in order to find out the one thing we all were looking for.
Turns out in the end... after every debate.
after all the trial and error.
after the back and forth of right and wrong.
after hearing from voices around every corner of the world.
after everyone became an invisible audience that lived behind a reblog button.
after we found our own democracy of judge, jury, and executioner here in this website
We’re figured out that we joined this website for the TRUTH
We joined this website because we could hear the unedited, raw, sometimes (most of the time) TMI, information that came from ALL OVER THE WORLD. With everyone on this site spewing every detail of things they would never share to people they knew in real life, we got to learn the REAL Reality of the world.
Everyone puts on a face depending on who the audience is. we have to, if someone knew the all explicit details of your life. you would probably never want to show ur face to them again.
But Here?
We don’t give a FUCK. We KNOW that we’re ALL goddamn HUMAN. we know we all be nasty stinky garbage slut nuggets. But we all KNOW that deep down we don’t want to hurt anyone we just like weird shit and don’t want to be judged!!
All humans have weird fetishes and obsessions and MOST of them are actually harmless! We’re all freaks but it’s okay! let’s lay the shit on the tumblr table and make sure that your creepy weird ass hobbies, are safe for everyone!
We tag! We filter! We make sure everyone has their safe bubble, but if you want to know something in full detail, we will show you!
This website is.... or was... the deep, carnal, heart of humanity. displayed in full color HD, and for everyone to enjoy in full anonymity, at their own risk.
We all believed in the same thing:
-Find the truth in everything
-be true to yourself
-never harm another person
-treat others as you would like to be treated
Every dedicated Tumblr User (from all over the world) came to this website because they hated taboos, they hated curtains, they hated not seeing all the perspectives, and they hated pretending to be someone they weren’t.
They came to this website because they could witness reality anonymously, and could contribute by rebloging what they knew to be true.
———
But our performers are gone. The raw, unphotoshopped, uncensored, voices had their platform distroyed.
Most of us are still here, but we are just the viewers.
The performers threw out anything and everything they could at us, and what we reblogged the most, revealed our true reality.
The witnesses (the performers) testified, and we the jury (the rebloggers) judged. it was a perfect system.
(whoever the judge is said fuck this shit and left our asses lmao)
But the Performers/Witness are gone
We the rebloggers/jury are here with nothing to reblog. for example...
IVE BEEN ON THIS SITE FOR 7 YEARS AND THIS IS MY FIRST REAL POST
I miss my nsfw freaks and i hate that this platform was distroyed by Normal®️ capitalistic regulations made by people with Money.
Fuck being in the apple store. fuck the “Safe For Work” Bull Shit
I miss my friends. I MISS tumblr from its prime.
LIFE AND POLITICS IS GETTING REAL SCARY, and tumblr was MY safe place. Crazy enough as it sounds it was my voice of reason for all these years. I had to come here to find my “crazy” people who actually believed that every human being has rights, and every topic needs to be debated. I had to come here to be grounded and reminded of the unedited truths.
I fixed my mental illness through therapy and medication because tumblr made me WANT TO.
This place was more like home than my own home was. People hear loved me more than my own flesh and blood.
in the end REAL PEOPLE were behind these anonymous posts and reblogs. real people with real hearts, and though i never actually talked to a single goddamn one of you (lmao),
you were... ARE STILL... MY FAMILY
I MISS THE LOUD PEOPLE WHO HAD CRAZY FETISHES AND REAL HEARTS.
the penis has been cut off and the heart is bleeding out.
I love you all and I will continue to reblog for now, but i feel that the end of my days are coming soon.
soon tumblr truly t won’t have anything to offer us that Cant be found on any other social media site.. .
We lost our soul and now we just rebloging screenshots from other platforms.
We lost our heart.
(because we lost our penis)
—-
For anybody who reads this whole post, i love you, from the deepest part of my heart. You have loved me and i love you.
I love you.
You are the reader, the reblogger, and the most beautiful goddamn person i have ever known.
You are what made this site beautiful and you have saved my life, as well as many others.
I love You.
Brick
(Dead name): Holly
❤️❤️❤️

The simple fact is that kdramas spend 20 30 hours telling a single story. That a long ass time. So you think up a story, you know how it starts and how it ends. They also seem to cultivate a sense of superiority, making them believe they have it all figured out and us women who work outside the home are the dumbasses when we could just 'work the biz' from our phones like them. I don't doubt it feels empowering when you want to contribute to your family and feel accomplished, and that's what makes it scary. It just makes me sad when I see posts like this, on here and on my own Facebook or insta feed.. It was extremely bizarre. You also might have heard of the "Would I Fuck It" 무주출장안마 litmus test that one of the people in charge of approving champions liked to subscribe to a long time back.For something that's so benign as asking your audience how to better represent them and acting on that feedback was such a battle at times. Even if it an active fight, the level of laziness was real.RoboticWater 156 points submitted 3 days agoThere a lot of blame to be had around for game failures; like, obviously, when a game has terrible mechanics, we can trace those mechanics back to developers, but the important question is: how did the developer make such bad mechanics? Are they just bad developers? Or maybe were they placed in an environment where they could do nothing but fail?Personally, I just can think that competitively acquired talent at studios with ludicrous amounts of funding and a full QA apparatus can "just" make bad work. Nothing screams bridal stress like wedding hair. Choosing the right hairstyle for your walk down the aisle could possibly be the single most obsessive part of your wedding, next to finding your dress, the cake, choosing bridesmaids and the menu. 무주출장안마 You've probably pored through more magazine pages and Web sites than you care to admit to find a perfect style that matches everything about you and your wedding. I always thought it was super majestic the way they dont pick fights with you unless you brandish a weapon, get too close, or linger too long. When I started this was a gesture of: "No way he gonna try and actually fight me. I don want to get gross hylian guts on my horns/crusher if I don have to" as if I were a bug.. Note that the average GPA for accepted medical students is 3.7. Medical school acceptances are very competitive, so find a way to enjoy your hard science classes. Attend every single class, form study groups, and focus on enjoying the process rather than striving for the end goal.. Think about the nature of the sounds themselves. (This is a bit easier in harmonic intervals.) My college musicianship classes use the Ploger Method, which is completely ungrounded in tonality we trained to hear intervals as dichords (1 11 depending on how many half steps are in them), classified according to interference pulsation (the frequency of beats between the notes, categorized as "dissonant" for any type of 2nds and 7ths, "modal" for 3rds and 6ths, or "perfect" for 4ths and 5ths), the "fundamental octave factor" (whether the interval seems to tend towards the octave or toward the fundamental), and harmonicity (whether or not the second note is in the harmonic series associated with the first). Each interval has a different combination of these.

AHAs and retinoids do very different things despite many people thinking they both just "exfoliate". That only true for AHAs, assuming we just talking about lower strength facial cleansers/toners/moisturizers/treatments and not peels. They loosen up the stuff on your face that holds all the gunk together on the skin and in your pores. Hair loss is complicated, and scientists are still trying to work out the bugs on why and how it happens. Pretty much all of them agree that MPB is usually genetic. Typically, loss begins above both temples, receding until a characteristic "M" pattern emerges. That doesn make it bearable though. However conflict is necessary for melodrama.rurunb 20 points submitted 3 months agoI really loved the first half I've never felt more single in my life.The second half was a shitshow. Why would she on a blind date? Why does he commit to moving to a different country without telling her first? Why did the father start to grow a backbone only to have it disappear in 30 mins? On top of that I felt like the last two episodes were so rushed. 2 points submitted 3 days agoi going into month 3 now and i am beginning to see a trend in terms of how my body holds water weight at different times in my cycle (i seem to get bloated around ovulation too, does this happen to any other women?)and STILL these times of the month roll around and i want to tear my hair out for a whole 진안출장샵 week, wondering wtf i been doing wrong, have i gotten lazier with counting than i thought, am i getting too comfortable with ordering delivery/eating out and underestimating, is my exercise having less of an impact on my deficit than i thought, etc. For two straight weeks out of the month it seems i just don lose anything at all, then maybe 1 2lbs the next, lather, rinse, repeat. It is so beyond frustrating because i feel like i can never really tell if im actually plateauing/doing something wrong or my body is just fcking with me. They also seem to cultivate a sense of superiority, making them believe they have it all figured out and us women who work outside the home are the dumbasses when we could just 'work the biz' from our phones like them.

Cremes contain more wax than mattes, so creme lipsticks protect the lips better than other types. Some long wearing lipsticks are very drying. So, why do we have a stereotype of Victorians as so stuffy and prudish they're having sex with all their clothes on? I'm going to offer two theories. The first is that the Victorians were great codifiers and classifiers. The Victorians might not have invented their ideas about sex from whole cloth they evolved from earlier ideas, but because they wrote the book, we think they invented it all.. I have uninstalled the game and reinstalled the game. I have uninstalled the game, restarted my phone and then reinstalled the game. I have also uninstalled the game, reinstalled the game, and cleared all game data and safari data and everything else I can think of. I hate mukbangs that 진안출장샵 are basically challenges to eat a ridiculous amount of food in one sitting. I not just talking a little bit of indulgence here. I seen mukbangs that are absolutely unbelievable in terms of the amount of food the person makes themselves eat.

So I got bored and made this over the summer. This is part one and I may post part 2. Enjoy?
So basically I already posted this on Wattpad so I’m just putting all of the first part/season I wrote on this one for binge readers. 
(A/N: this is 13 pages and about 4.5k words.)
Enjoy!!!
—————————-
So tiktok was exactly like other girls, except she wasn't. She was sold to one direction 4 times, became a pet to an alpha 7 times, and has been bullied by some popular girl at school for being weird countless times.
Case and point, if she had a nickel for every normal day she had, Tiktok would have TWO nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's word that it happened twice right?
Anyway, she walked into herhigh school, orbs blinking in the sunlight. She was so quirky. Special. Not like those girls. Tiktok spun in a circle to be different than those squares. She smiled to herself, seeing that bad boy and UwU kitten talk. They were so attractive her c o r e started to heat. God can't save you now. First day of freshman year, and already off to a great-
"MoVe wHore" said the dumbass bitch ass hoe instapix or fucking whatever. She was like other girls and wasn't UwU quirky at all. What a mistake.
"O-o-oh! Sorry m-"
"Can it! I have to memorize my friends birth charts while drinking iced coffee! Ugh!" Insta-bitch stormed off, going to talk to Her friends YouTube and FaceBook. Facebook was a couple years older, but still ZAMN DADDY WHAT THOSE LEGS DO 😩😩💦💦. Anyway, instagram kissed her girlfriend YouTube than went to her class.
Tiktok blinked before being pinned to the wall by the orange guy. No not from fnaf I'm not getting sued today. He was orange and white with a dash of yellow. His orbs made direct contact with her and her body, as she blushed and UwUed to get his attention. So romantic.
"What do you w-w-want, baka?!" Tiktok screeched
"Hi, I'm Reddit. I got some DANK mey meys im selling illegally, like NFTs. Want some? I'm an alpha, so all of the money goes to my rent because soon we'll find out I'm popular and I need to support my 14 girlfriends!"
"W-what?"
Tiktok pushed this crazy man away and walked to class, dazed and confused, but undoubted girlboss.
————————$-$/&-&@-@———-
In class, Tiktok was paired with a boy named Discord. He wore blue cat ears and a tail, and talked in an accent. (Disclaimer: I am not trying to make fun of furrys. They are really cool and kinda scary and I don't wanna hurt any.)
"Hewwo! I'm discowd! What's youw nwame?!!" (Hello! I'm discord! What's your name?) the boy, discord, UwUed out.
"I-im tiktok! And we can w-w-work at my house for the project!!" Tiktok said, smiling at him as he 👉👈Ed back.
"Of couwse! I'll bwing conswuctuon pay per, and my di-" (of course! I'll bring construction paper, and my di-)
"O-okay! Let's get started!" She said, blushing madly as the apps orbs faintly spoke to eachother.
God she wanted them both so bad...
-
As tiktok walked home from school, she was happy. She had met two amazing boys. One was a badboy alpha that made her want to 👉👈 to get his attention. The other was a UwU soft boy.
Being friends with them was great!
She wore a faux smile as she walked into the house, seeing her dad,Twitter,  trying to find something to yell at her about while being a little bitch and idfk I never had a Twitter account.
Anyway tiktok went to go be emo in her room, being so coolziee and talking to discord on her phone
Tiktok: lolzies yeah we can work on the project at your house
Discord: Mk
Tiktok: smiles, flips hair back, sucks your toes
Discord: I'm gay wt French toast
Tiktok smiled and walked over to his house by the power of spite and two. She ✨🤭❤️girlbossed🥺🤭✨
-
Tiktok got to discords house and casually breaks in as you do on a cold summer day during the school year. She poped it back not cap bussin bussin. Discord UwUed to close to the sun and was like really Coolzies and stuff
Once they were done a knock happened on the door.
OH YOUR GOD ITS JESUS CRIST FROM UNDERTAIL-
Jk it was Reddit. He was being a Tumblr sexy man ever tumblr wasn't sexy or attracted to men. Tiktok stared at those DUMMY THICC abs. He had a 69.420 pack from extorting so many memes and NFTs onto the internet. He was like super cool and popular. And cishet fr not clickbait
Anyway tiktok saw his ᴵᵈᵒⁿᵗʷᵃⁿⁿᵃᵈᵒᵗʰᶦˢ Bulgy wulgy and died from sexy.
Darkness. The suffocation and surrounded her was a deafening silence that she hated. It was like a dream that would never end, yet you hated that it ever started. It choked out all the words from her lungs as she was dragged back to a state of consciousness that was deemed decent enough to survive.
"Woah tf you like died it was straight." Reddit said, knotting his head and laughing bc he's so funny and hot and cute *giggles and twirls my hair uwu* ᶠᵘᶜᵏʷʰʸ
"Ywou we're wike...swupid. Dwont dwie or I'll kwill you." Discord UwUed, smiling and being a good kitten for Reddit.
Tiktok blinked her orbs. What a goofy day! She smiled and eventually waved goodbye, being like super not like other girls as Twitter dilf sold her to singular direction yet again
But what would I know? Lol I'm not go- *turns into oodle*
-
Tiktok was being a FUCKING simp for Jesus, because y'all need him if you're reading this fic. Anygays tiktok was girlbossing like reaaaallyyy close to the sun and it was so material girl. Then discord came up and UwUed.
"I wanna twell you swometing!" Discord said
"Surezies! What i-it is?" Tiktok said to be quirky and amazing and pop-
"I don't qdywlly talk in an UwU accent I did that to steal Reddits bitches lol." Discord whispered in her ear bc he's a tumblr sexy man even though tumblr is a lie made for tax money.
"Oh. Slay ✨🤞❤️" she smiled and walked away to say the tea or some shit idk who am I  Doom eternal super shotgun Flaming meathook Upgrade?
Later that day Reddit was selling illegal Memes to insert tragic backstory cameo here when tiktok came up and smiled to him. She had gotten sold to one direction again and was telling the bad boy alpha
"H-hello bad bOi! I got s-sold to one direction!" Tiktok said, smiling
Reddit picked her up "lol no. I bought you now 😈"
"Omg hit the slay button" tiktok blushed; blurting out bs idk
Reddit than took her to his house and OH MY GOD REDDIT IS A BISEXUAL HE HAS THE FLAG. I'm bi fo Reddit lolzies twinning
Tiktok flopped onto his bed and hit the woah cutely to get his attention. They went on discord to call discord
Funnyman69: hey my kitten, call me 😈😈
DaddyUwUbaby: of course my pogchamp 🥺💦💦
They called and like sexted. Tiktok watched it was beautiful. Than she saw discord had a nwlnw pfp and OH MY GAH HES GAY!!! NOT EUROPEAN!!
Tiktok was happy with her friends. And than she realized she didn't feel romantically attracted to either of them!
What luck! Hope this doesn't become a plot point later! That would be hilarious!

Twitter was being a poo poo head to tiktok so she went to Reddicks house to stay for the  nights
Tiktok was being not a material girl and was acting exactly like other girls and it horrified Reddit. He tried to cheer her up by bringing over insta gramcracker. But tiktok just freaking agreed with her!! OH NOES!!!!!
"What's like wrong with you, Tikky Tokky?"
"Idk man..I just wanna go to trader joesephs.."
*gasps* "this isn't good, red boy." Instagram sighed out
"I know. It's as bad as this fic!"
"What?"
"Nothing. Maybe you can take her to your house?" Reddit asked and Tiktok took a sip of a Double Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew. She was already turning.
"That won't work. I enjoy having sleepovers and doing makeup with my fellow females so that won't do.." Instagram sighed. Sitting next to Tiktok. She leaned on her shoulder as Instagram did a blushy wushy UwU.
Reddit thought for a second before gasping
"Give me five minutes!"
——————
Discord walked into reddits room "heyo what did I miss" he said, not talking in an UwU accent because writer is lazy and sick and doesn't want to HELEN >:{
Anyways, reddiy hugged dickcord from behind and picked him up
"Well TikTok's acting exactly like other girls, Instagram is trying to fix her and is calling YouTube and I thought having two males in the room would make her try to empress us."
"Why not call Wattpad and Ao3?"
"They'll make fanfiction about her, and they're only in middle school. I'm not calling the kids I tutor into helping a big boy problem."
"Tumblr?"
"Tehe, no. To sexy"
Discord walked up to Tiktok as she was listening to a band everyone had heard of. God, this was bad. Discord started to worry before he remembered something tiktok had told him off camera.
"What's today?"
"Uuhhh...time isn't real." Instagram said, panickedly texting YouTube about women ❤️✨🤭
"April 21st, why?" Reddiy asked
Discord sighed and looked at tiktok, hugging her softly and cutely. Red duck stared at that NICE ASS BRO-
Anyway, the homo squad  looked at discord confused as he looked at tiktok with worry. She sighed and sat up, taking off the blanket she had wrapped around her.
"I'm gonna go wipe off my makeup. Wait f-for me to tell them." She sighed, going into the bathroom.
Discord nodded, sitting on his homie reddits lap and waiting. Instagram invited YouTube over and they did gay shit idk man I'm a cishet man in Ohio that sells propane 25/8
Tiktok wiped that smudge off her face and sighed. She put on a band tee jeans and spicy hot Cheetos puffs socks, and went out to face the trial by a jury of her queer's.
Tiktok fell onto the edge of the bed, sighing different than other girls would.
"She's back!" YouTube yelled, pulling Instagram and Tiktok into a hug. Tiktok blushed bc mmmm tittes.
Tiktok sighed and sat on the bed
"Ask away any questions." She sighed out, twirling her air ✨❤️✨❤️
"Why were you acting weird?"
"Do you like men?"
"What happened?"
"Why is Twitter a dilf?"
"Shut up, Reddit."
Tiktok laughed and looked around at all these bitches. They might've supported striaght rights, which smh my head is against her religion, but she tolerated those fucking idiots <3.
"I don't know if I like men, My dad was being an asshole, and I was acting weird because...todays the day my mom died of death.also Twitter isn't a fucking dilf stop behind gay."
"No ❤️"
Sigh. Imagine writing a story about gays. Couldn't be me.
Something hit TikTok's brain before she could respond to questions about tragic backstory number A.
They called and like sexted. Tiktok watched it was beautiful. Than she saw discord had a nwlnw pfp and OH MY GAH HES GAY!!! NOT EUROPEAN!!
Tiktok was happy with her friends. And than she realized she didn't feel romantically attracted to either of them!
What luck! Hope this doesn't become a plot point later! That would be hilarious!
OH MY SHIT ITS A PLOT POINT NOW.
Tiktok sighed and began telling the tale, thinking of a special not man that she seemed to start crushing on.
"Well.."
———- what's this? A flash back? In this economy????———-
"Mama! Mama! I got some bitches!" Tiktok yelled, hugging Vines legs. Being 4 was great, no worri-
Sudden, tiktok became a Disney character and had no mom. It was sad and tiktok cried at her eBay gravestone. Twitter became a GRRRR dirty capitalist and worked with some weird guy called Mlon Eusk. Damn it would be funny if he was real. But Mlon Eusk is just some fictional guy with no resemblance of anyone alive. Like Steve cobs, from hit object show inanimate insanity who's first appearance was season 2 episode 8.
Anyway vine dead was like sad and stuff,.
—— end of completely tragik backstory.——
"...and that's the gospel truth." The not like other girl sighed out. She looked over at everyone and smiled at her friends.
"Also btw I think I'm a lesbian. Tehe"
"Omg work the house yas queen pur."
"Same."
They all did one big group hug no homo.
Wow, it would be crazy if tiktok had a crush on someone. Writer definitely has an idea who that is. Fr not clickbait gone wrong gone sexual at 3 am.
-
Our protagonist has realized she's a LESBIAN!! WOW!! NOT DEGENERATE MALES!!!
Also Reddit and discord had said they were dating and flexed on everyone on how they would go on double dates with YouTube and Instagram and it was great and very Homo socks off 👍👍
Tiktok has realized who she had a crush on and ZAMN she was fine!! I'm not gonna say who it is because I'm like really evil and stuff Tehe. You can make theories tho. A hint is I haven't introduced her yet.
Anyslay, tiktok went into class when suddenly ONE DIRECTION CAME?!? IN?!?!(! WHAT IN TUMBLRS SEXY MAN SHOP AND REFDITS ILLEGAL MEYMEYS?!?!??
"Hey lol we came here bc your dad Twitter is a capitalist and sold u to us 😈😈💔✨"  they all said at once, because boy bands are all hive minds.
"I'm gæ." Tiktok said, smiling cutely and fluttering her UwU lashes, thinking of the bitches she wants to get bc tiktok gets a negative amount, she's in bitch debt.
"Sorry lolzies" singular direction claimed sexily
They suddenly burst into song bc idk man what Am I the bee movie script paragraph that I have memorized???
"Ooh baybay, I love you baybay!" One direction started, suddenly getting cut off by
*gasp*
TWITTER?? He was a Steve cobs looking mf but make it a human and a dilf. Anyneighs,
"Stay away from my baybay!"
"But father, I love him" some weird ass bitch said. Who? Jesus probably idfk.

Tiktok went face first into the chest and blushed a lot bc people are so 😩. Pinterest blushes and picked tiktok up
"You gay? I mean okay?"
"No."
"Fair enough."
Pinterest put her down and did a body builder pose, bc their aesthetic this chapter is strong  fuck you.
Tiktok did a blushy wushy and walked away, running into Reddit. She flushed
"Ahhh. Women."
"No."
"Why?"
"Men."

"Why?"
"Not men"
"No."
"Why?"

"N-"
"Can both of you Stfu <3" discord asked, being an UwU baby. They both yelled at him but Reddit did it sexily. Uhh that's the chapter I'm bored lmao
Morale of the story: tiktok has a crush on Pinterest and I ate your chicken strips again
Edit - I'm making Pinterest non binary *flys into melatonin induced coma*
-
Reddit, discord, Instagram, and YouTube went on a super cute and orginal double date
Instagram had planned it all and was like super really attractive ifk man I never read the anime.
Anygays, they all went on a walk and it was super cool.
"...what a funny joke I just told :)" YouTube smiled as everyone laughed at the haha funny boy clickbait fr gone wrong. Instagram kissed her cheek. WOAHz WOMEN.
Then smiled at eachother and looked back at the reference I made to the gay in chapter one.
Insta-bitch stormed off, going to talk to Her friends YouTube and FaceBook. Facebook was a couple years older, but still ZAMN DADDY WHAT THOSE LEGS DO 😩😩💦💦. Anyway, instagram kissed her girlfriend YouTube than went to her class.
It was all foreshadowing bc I definitely have this story planned out and don't write it on the bus or when sleepy on melatonin not at all.
Reddit smiled and picked up discord, putting him on his shoulders. They did the gay stuff, like hand holding. Also discord cannonicly can't wear socks lmao.
Redcord smiled and walked with Instatube until they got to a restaurant and ate food.
Idk what I'm writing but I'm tired take this I might update one of my actual stories later idk
-
Pinterest was hitting the neigh neighed like trauma hit them when Truamatic ecssesive backstory when tiktok tackle hugged them
"Happy birthday hoe!!"
"Oh your god I forgot about that lolzies" Pinterest smiled at tiktok and they both did a blushy wushy that was a tad bit gæ
Reddit and YouTube came 🤭 over carrying the cake and did and everyone clapped so loudly everyone thought Twitter was here because of the clap of his ass cheeks being so damn massive
Tiktok held Pinterests hand (so scandalous!) and took them ice skating. The teachers didn't get paid enough to care and let them go. Then Reddit made out with his UwU discord kitten but THIS ISNT ABOUT T H O S E GAYS ITS ABOUT THESE GAYS. (And deez nuts)
Tiktok rented skates for them and they went about their skating. Everything seemed to be perf
Pintrest fell out of nowhere and accidentally pinned tiktok to the walls of the rink
Both of them turn bright red and we're being kinda gay bro ngl :/
They stood there for a couple of seconds before pintrets face fell into those NICE titz out of embarrassment. But embarrass has ass in it so they got more embarrassed, so sad. The two stayed there for a couple of seconds before going back to hand holding and ice skating.
After the amazing day at the ice skating rink the girls gays and theys went home. As Pinterest dropped tiktok off at home they smiled and kissed TikTok's cheek. Not that cheek, ya nasty.
"Nice titz lol."
Pinterest left tiktok a blushy wushy gushy mess. She walked into her house
Then the dilf known as Twitter turn around dramatically in a chair.
"Where were you??"
"Uhhh...I was with our cat..??"
As if on cue, Mr. meow meow juicy III turned on the chair
"Meow meow meow."
"MR. MEOW MEOW JUICY III??!?" Tiktok exclaimed in fear and betrayal? How could he do that??
"So..where were you?"
"I..I was ice skating.."
"Was it with that Reddit boy?! I knew he was a bad influence on you. Next it's NFTS! Then memes! Before you know it, you'll be pregnant with some gay child!!"
"Dad I-"
"No! I'm cancelling you and grounding you! Oh, I bet it was that UwU boy! He's a no good scoundrel! I'm going to call him so many no-no words!"
"Hear me-"
"Nah"
"PAPA!" Tiktok did the unthinkable and pulled out that nickname...
Twitter tensed up like he was getting his dilf cheeks clapped by his dead wife. Before he could say anything his daughter spoke up.
"Dad, I was with Pinterest. They're like really cool and have red hair. I love THEM very much. I am a lesbian and would fight men."
Twitter gasps and puts a hand to his chest.
"You're in love with a ginger girl??? ALSO I THOUGHT YOU WERE AMERICAN??"
.
"D-
Dad they're non binary-"
"YOURE IN LOVE WITH A GINGER KID???" Twitter seemed hurt, offended even. He rawred out and sent Tiktok to her room.
As she weaped into her pillow, her life seemed to fall apart. First her moms death, then her dad, and next she's gonna have to break off contact with her partner! Well, crush, but still. Tiktok cried quirkily when a tap came from her window. She looked over and saw discord??
He tapped her shoulder and handed her a burner phone. It had a sticky note that said 'thought your dad might be gingerphobic. If you wanna call use this! ~ PinPin'
Tiktok flushed and smiled, teheing and twirling her AIR ✨😀❤️✨
Maybe today didn't suck like Reddit wanted to suck her dad. Or Instagram with her mom <3
-
Reddit was acting sus and disoword was worried about that. Kinda gay bro. Reddit had fell asleep in some classes and was distance himself from everyone. He did the once a month every second Thursday and a half, and discord was going to find out why! Even if that meant UwUing to close to the sun!
After the humane hellscape Of school was over Reddit walked off fast and discord was so short (he's 2'1 🥺🥺🥺)  he fucking sprinted with the power of gwod and animwe >:3. Reddit seemed to have a juicy secret. Juicier then his Boyfriend.
Reddit walked into the hospital as discord followed en suite. Oh your god..my boyfriend takes eretile disfunction pills! And didn't tell me.. discord thought to himself, wondering now if reddick could still tap that 😕😕. Reddit waved to the desk lady and went up the elevator. He looked up and saw discord taking to the front desk lady as the doors closed. Oh fucky wucky, chucky. Reddit pulled out his phone and texted discoword.
Funnyman69: what the heckity heck 5 abs and one pec, man?!?
DaddyUwUbaby: well why awe ywou at te hospital!
DaddyUwUbaby: is it too gwet dwown bad with a nurse...💔💔
FunnyMan69: no..get in the elevator, my little omega ❤️
Going back to the first floor, Reddit held discords hand and led him up the stares. He whispered softly in his ear about gay stuff. Reddit kept his little UwU baby omega safe 🥺🥺.
Opening the door to a room, LE GASP!!
It was tumblr! She hugged Reddit cutely and was very scenemo.
"Epic little bro! Who's the guy with ya?"
"This is my boyfriend, Discord."
"Swag! Dipwads older sibling (she/they btw)"
"Stop referencing sex with Andrew garfieellllddd!" Reddit whined, hugging his sister really annoyed. They laughed and pushed him off.
"You're just here to check on me, but I'm fine! Just tell me the tea so you can go!"
"Alright, we'll first off..."
Discord zoned out, smiling becuase of the really cool people in the room. He loved his boyfriend and was finally meeting his family.
Discord chuckled to himself softly, holding a UwU locket. Wowza!!! ITS A HOMOSEXUAL!!! He held it close and wowzers looked gay. Reddit kissed his boyfriends head, picking up his kitten before waving goodbye and taking him home.
Discord kissed his cheek and smiled, waving goodbye as he went inside.
-
Tiktok and pintrest were dating, wowzers zowers. They had been through a lot togtwhr; like when my eye became vacuums and it was so sex they all died. How hot.
They were walking home and taking about really cool stuff like how the world is fucked and weather Reddit is a bottom or not.
"I'm just saying, he's a fuck boy because is fucks boys, making him a top." Tiktok explained as they made it to her house
"Nah, I think he's a bottom because imagine discord as a top." Wow such comedy. So funny, much laughter ensued.
Tiktok felt a hand grab her wrist from the door, looking up and seeing her dad. RUH Roh shaggy we're rucked. Pintrest, not understanding socail cues like a damn heterosexual, shook his hand and smiled
"Hi, I'm pin-"
"G I N G E R"
Twitter pulled tiktok inside and locked the door. He's so gingerphobic :(
Pintrest listened through the door and heard a 'lovely' conversation.
"Tiktok is that the boy-"
"They're non-binary"
"Tiktok is that the whore you've been hanging out with"
"Yea..?"
"Wt fick they're a ginger."
"And? What about it?!"
"I'll defeat them with the power of friendship! All gingers deserve to be fist faught in a Walmart parking lot and run over by the power of friendship!" Twitter rambled.
"Dad, we don't own a hot pink speedboat with all terrain drive," Tiktok mumbled referencing the pasta turtle mafia lore
'...The Power Of Friendship is, unknown to every living being, not a weapon, but a vessel, that's why it is called friend-SHIP, any that embark on it will have access to the most powerful full wheel drive vehicle imaginable and can run over anyone without having to worry about enemy resistance. This is why it is feared. The Pope, not being alive, is the only creature that knows the true nature of The Power Of Friendship, and guards it with the rest of the Communist Clams....'
Twitter remembered studying it in school and the fact she thought he didn't know this was wounding and heterophobic smh my head
"Room. NOW!"
Tiktok ran up the stairs to her not like other girls room. Twitter would probably sell her to one direction again to fix her, and she hated it. Knowing no matter what she did she couldn't fit it in with others without changing. Tiktok wasn't like other girls and hated it, she cried and cried into that stupid pillow..
(Istg if anyone kins tiktok I'm cancelling this book.)
Time and time again she'd seen it happen. She grows close to someone, dates someone with something 'wrong' with them, and gets 'fixed'. She was so happy this time. Packing her bags with everything was..almost agrivating.
Tiktok sighed and sat up in bed after a couple hours. A rlly seggsy boy band came in saying they had bought her for 2763$ she sighed and grabbed her packed clothes. She texted her friends goodbye and left a note for pintrest on what was going to happen.
She walked with the boy band and stared out the window, looking back at Twitter and feeling the affects start to kick in already..
(End of part 1)

im havign a weird time kind of so I might just dump on here for a minute,, ta lads
first and foremost my dad passed away like a week ago (edit: the whole post ended up being about this, bye). I have not posted this on Instagram or Facebook yet cos I'm not rly sure how, but ill have to do it at some point I figure? Idk like I suppose I don't rly, but I feel weird when I don't post milestones on Insta which is probably weird in itself. who knows. I think Im just so used to oversharing at this point that I'm not sure when the line is for ordinary people (as opposed to Tumblr icons lol)
I had a couple of messages from people back home who found out some other way, most likely by seeing my mum in a shop or whatever, one of them is a very old friend who I didn't speak to now for almost ten years. I really really want to reply to her but I'm afraid so I just haven't yet. I would like to get coffee with her and talk but I'm worried ill cry about our friendship going awry or bring up how much it fucked me over and it'll be awkward. the other message is from this girl who is the daughter of my parents friends from church and its literally like ‘see u at the crem on the 9th? x’ like,,,,, ok lol. didn't reply either. so she sent another one like ‘will be nice to see you x’and I almost came back like ‘Pippa it is not a social occasion we are putting my dad in a big oven’ but I didn't because a. thats mean and b. she is autistic and probably doesn't realise how odd her messages sound so it would be extra mean. Its still surreal though, the whole thing is
my mum seems to think I should be involved with every step of funeral arrangements and every time she says something like ‘do you think we should have song a or song b’ I have to resist so strongly the urge to go ‘Im sorry but I don't.. have an opinion’ apparently, my brother is heavily involved in all this and really keen to help, so I have to wonder why bother me with every little thing when you must know that I'm not interested, or find it hard to care. its almost offensive the way she projects emotions onto me, going ‘I felt I was too young to lose my dad at 49,, and you're only 24..,, so you definitely are’ like?? if you say so?? thats really not how I feel at all. I have been consciously trying to be independent from my father for some time and if anything this completes it but,,, whatever makes you feel better I guess.
How I feel in reality is just like, alien. I feel as though everybody thinks differently to me. All of this sadness is just happening around me and I can’t relate at all. in fact when other people aren't making me stressed with their raw emotion I feel basically the calmest I have in ages. I feel quite freed by it secretly, but I could never say that anywhere because it sounds so callous. I keep thinking, I can go anywhere now,, I can do anything, and he can't have an opinion on how I look or behave because he's dead! its a strange kind of power, and thats sad, but when you set yourself up as a big scary boss then theres always going to be a weird sense of victory for the people you made small when you eventually shuffle off, and thats what he did. He Did That, not me. 
I should say though that if you're reading this and you also sent me some kind of (normal) condolence message, you haven't done something wrong and I appreciate it for what it is. its very kind of you to care about me enough to do that even if we don't talk normally. I would never say like ‘don't send me that’ because its a good and considerate thing to do, I just mean to say that this isn't a normal ‘my beloved parent died’ scenario so like don't sweat it if you haven't lmao. I wish lowkey that I could conjure up emotions other than relief, but I can’t. My attitude at the moment is basically to just give away as little as possible when asked to perform grief, and hope that people read it as me bottling everything up and not straight up lack of. 
I think in summary the issue then is this: my Millennial Need to be Real and Exposed all the time is in direct competition with my situational defence mechanism of being Respectful and Compliant for the moment, causing me like the absolute most anxiety of me life and making me question everything that I feel or don’t. Saying nothing ends up being the only socially acceptable solution, but it is not satisfying for me. It may under close inspection not even be satisfying for others (my mum, brother, extended family and family friends) but its the best I can do and I’m hoping that they get that somehow, cos if anybody even faintly challenges me on it at the funeral or around there (do you even care blah blah) I'm probably going to explode lmao. Thats my concern. It is just so hard to not be Mental omfg for the first time ever I feel like I’m concentrating so hard on appearing normal that I threaten to come out the other side u get me

Best Marketing Strategies For Serviced Accommodation
Starting your Airbnb management journey can be a bit scary, especially if it's your first time however; chances are it will be the best choice you’ll make. What’s better than a constant flow of income, generated from something you’ve created? 
With everything on your shoulders, things can become more difficult to manage and that’s what serviced accommodation management experts are here for.
Getting guidance from people with real experience will save you from making mistakes, which is something you can’t afford to do at the beginning of your journey. Making clients' Airbnb dreams come true since 2016, central Belfast apartments are the best at managing serviced apartments. 
Below you’ll find some useful marketing strategies that will guide you to make the right choice about your Airbnb. 
Getting Airbnb Bookings through Website
Your own website, get direct bookings. Optimise the site. Updating it regularly, blogs - share them. 
The best thing you can do to drive clients to your Airbnb is to have your own unique website, where people can easily book their stay. Putting your contact details is a good idea, however you want to make sure that people don’t need to rely on making phone calls to book in. 
The key is to make things as easy as possible, which means you’ll need to create an easy to navigate, visually appealing website. 
If you’ve already done this, the real work is about to begin. Optimising your website so that google ranks it high in search results is key in bringing clients to your website. 
Doing things like posting regular content and having relevant keywords on your site that are popularly searched will be highly beneficial. There are great specialists who can take care of optimising your website for google to make sure you’re doing everything you can to drive as much traffic as possible to your brand. 
Tumblr media
Build a Brand through Social Media
Interacting with people, posting valuable content, people asking questions and getting responses, FB groups, 
Interacting with people on social media is a great way to bring clients to your site, while also being friendly and personal which people love. 
Bear in mind that much more people are seeing your interactions than the people who actually interacted with them, and your reach is higher than it may seem. 
For example, if we reply to a person asking for best places to stay in Belfast with a link to our site, that information will be visible to anyone stumbling upon the post. 
This can be through Instagram, Facebook, Twitter or Tik Tok which is probably your best friend when it comes to reaching out through social media. We now have a Tik tok for @CentralBelfast and one dedicated to serviced apartment management called @airbnbcoach. 
Teaming up with Companies
Teaming up with companies that you can offer a service to in exchange for theirs is extremely beneficial. We team up with local bars and restaurants all around Belfast and film the experience of eating/drinking at their place, which gives them exposure online while getting us views. 
There’s a lot that can be done when two companies work together on pushing social media presence, and it’s completely cost free. 
We all know how successful competitions can be, coming from the fact everybody loves free things. 
There’s a smart way of creating valuable competitions completely cost free and that is by offering a free service to a company in exchange for theirs, which you can then use as a prize for an insta competition. 
For a thorough video explaining marketing strategies relating to Airbnb management be sure to check out the full video on Tik Tok.
