I hope the cruelty that you showed me comes back to haunt you.

I always feel that I'm being taken for granted by my loved ones, but the real problem is that I allow them to do so, I've ruined things for myself, I am easily approachable and accessible, that's why I get treated this way. I always thought being there for others is a nice thing but in reality it sucks, you lose your value in that process, i wish to not to be taken for granted for actually caring for my loved ones and being easy only for them, someday someone might actually understand me and take me seriously and not some kind of joke. I just wish to be treated right and not for granted

I just found this comment on my Smiling Friends x Hazbin Hotel collage, and usually I just block and ignore it, but sometimes I let things get to me. I'm a person with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), and I can be overly sensitive sometimes, but this person was beyond rude.

This person is the perfect example of what Fandom Police are. Fandom Police often act as if they can repress or censor other fans in what they consume, create, and talk about.

This person didn't have to tell me what to do with my creative energy and enthusiasm. I think that's what triggered me the most, because my moodboards and collages are a positive and creative outlet for me; they also help me with stress, anxiety, and relaxation.

I'm sorry for the vent guys, but this person triggered me.

Please know that you deserve to be loved and respected in the same way that you love and respect those around you.

heyy there, im new to tumblr & i was learning to use it & ur post introducing people to tumblr came up and i read it. i just have a question, i read somewhere else that it is not welcome to disagree/argue w someone in my reblog of their post. say someone idk posts ab t swift & matty healy (controversial topic) & i reblog disagreeing, would that be seen as improper etiquette, as just spreading negativity? sry for the random q but u seem like u'd know. u can msg me to answer if u'd rather <3

Hello, @ashtraygrrrl and welcome! I'm glad that my post was helpful, what a lovely thing to hear.

We so happy to have you, and thanks for asking about things when you're unsure.

What you're talking about here is called (not-so-fondly) 'hijacking a post'. That can mean either using your re-blog to attack the OP (Original Poster)'s post or using your re-blog to just... say something completely unrelated. In either of these cases, if the hijack takes off, the OP is suddenly in the wildly upsetting position of getting hammered with potentially vicious reblogs that become totally out of their control. And that's a cruel thing to do to someone.

If you need to make your counter-argument, then use your own original post to do so, and tag it appropriately, so that the people who are interested can find it. (This does NOT mean tagging the OP.)

Now use your judgement, of course. The OP might be a mutual and y'all might have the kind of rapport where this is perfectly fine. Or you might be on a 'Yes, and' post where your random detour is appropriate and appreciated.

Mostly, just remember that you don't know anything about the OP, and err on the side of kindness. Then, hopefully, the community will treat you in the same way, and Tumblr stays fun and inclusive rather than toxic.

A good rule of thumb is to treat posts (whether they be random thoughts, art, fic, meta, etc.) like dishes at a potluck. If you don't like it, you don't shout about it, make a scene and cause that cook feel terrible... you just move on and sample the next one.

Remember to liberally use the 'Block' feature. It doesn't hurt anyone to do so (the blocked person/tag/phrase never even knows it) and helps your blood pressure and enjoyment.

Who the heck was the first person to say respect should be earned?? No it shouldn't. Disrespect should be earned.

And even then it is not your right to be disrespectful. Even if you're talking to your worst enemy there should be at least a little bit of respect, a line you can't cross. If you're trying to bother them then unfiltered kindness will do the trick better anyway.

Be respectful, guys. It's the only way to be respected.

Love is patient and kind.

Hiding behind the anon feature to say horrible things to someone doesn't make you brave. It makes you a coward, because while you'd bully someone anonymously, if you had to reveal your identity, you'd never say those things.

In the end, we do this for fun. For community. So let's remember that. Treat others how you want to be treated. Don't forget there's an actual person behind the username.

why don't people in this world being nice ? it doesn't even cost a cent to be nice to someone. i hope you're having a great day. i don't know you personally or more deeper bcs im new here but all i know you're a great person yourself.

shame on you people for being rude to others.

Omg SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK!!!!

Love you deserve a kiss for this. Seriously it doesn’t cost anything to be nice towards someone.

People just be hating on others cause deeply down they are either, insecure, hate on the person cause they’re jealous or that person they hate on has something they don’t.

Thank you so much love. You made my day a bit better.💜

Returning happy vibes your way!

Yeosang sends you love

"Hey but are you normal about..."

No. I have untreated ADHD. I can't be normal about anything.

But I can be kind. I can shut up amd let others talk. I can treat everyone to the same kind of weird regardless of whether or not I understand where they are coming from. I can accept thats not my place to comment. I can try.

And so can you.
