#yeah tumblr i missed you. I'm back

[beneathsilverstars]

one of my irl besties i follow on twitter and i do NOT get her posting style. irl our senses of humor play so well together that we have been complimented by strangers at the store on how funny our idle conversations are, but i look at her posts and feel nothing but confusion. i can't figure out what it means OR what's funny about it. i don't know if i'm misreading the tone, or if her online circles just have a totally different posting style than mine, or what, but her posts are incomprehensible to me!

anyway i think this is what following loop on socmed would be like.

hey, does anyone mind recapping the stream's events to me? I was there for a bit but then left because I didn't have enough energy to watch a stream

the sheer number of incredibly intricate worlds and characters that i have created with people who i am no longer friends with so that i can no longer talk about those characters or use those settings. i only got half the dog in the divorce do you know what i mean

hi ♡ i guess i'm back? 🥹

here's a little life update! i think you guys deserve it after my absence that lasted longer than even i expected it to last ;( i am very sorry about that. i miss everyone here and bangtan so much, you have no idea. the reason for all that is that for the past months i have been going through a lot of things and changes in my life. there were good and bad things happening, time flies extra fast, days melt into one and i didn't even notice the past half a year pass. although i think my absence was unavoidable in these circumstances i just thought that you guys deserve to know what's been up with me for the past months haha i have received a lot messages and reminders that people remember about me and that they miss me and i just want to send all of you my biggest apologies for leaving you for so long with no response, as well as all my love and gratitude! 🥺 i think i've been always fairly transparent on here so if anyone wanted to know more I'll leave some more details in the tags but basically I just hope that soon i will be able to become more active again and respond to messages ❤️❤️❤️ i hope everyone is doing great 🥰

Tumblr from a Twitter user perspective

as someone who had Tumblr as a major site they used for a long time and then went over to Twitter. I can say Tumblr as it is fine. Perfectly fine with it reblog chains. Its how its always been and makes it unquie.

Why did i move to Twitter? Cause when Tumblr decided to not do nsfw my original blog was restricted (still is despite my appeals) and I lost motivation to continue my blog because of it.

I regret joining Twitter. I really do. It has its moments but it is just a hot garbage pool of toxic vomit everywhere. I see it 24/7 on my tl and it's so hard to escape. Not to mention that it is IMPOSSIBLE to find art on twt or anything really at all.

Tumblr is a place where I look up what I want and I fucking find it. I love reblog chains that's like the whole way we communicate? Where the best memes come from, other ppl building ontop of another. Its a sense of community and connection i missed from this place.

Twitter is so- fucking hollow and it feels like despite having akot of followers no one is there. I'm sure other Twitter users who are cretaors could agree. Hell major artists that were in Twitter said they felt better coming back ot to Tumblr.

Yes it takes a minute to get adjusted to the site but it doesn't take that long at all. It doesn't make sense to bow to new comers cause I can assure you, if Tumblr is in the red. Twt users are not gonna save you. Absolutely not. The reason twt users are even coming here is BECAUSE of the stupid bulkshit Elon Musk keeps making over there. Making changes of the core functions of the site (take fucking notes Tumblr), breaking it and making just so anti user friendly.

Tumblr doesn't need go conform. It need to lean into it's strengths that make it different and BETTER than the other sites. It hasn't survived this long for no reason. If its struggling you need to ask your USERBASE what they think you could improve. Cause right now. This ain't it.

I'm honestly surprised there isn't talk of a strike or tag of some sort to voice our discontent for this rn. It is Tumblr.

gnawing at the bars of my cage I NEED TO WRITE THE 5+ IDEAS BOUNCING AROUND IN MY HEAD

[starsmuserainbow]

Always having to scroll down for the next few posts to load to make the number of the tracked tags update (or, at least that works every now and then, some numbers just don't reset at all though). Mutual checker not working (I think? not sure where that icon would even be atm with the new header-design), most likely because of the mess that tumblr did to the post-headers (and the avatars). Then ofc all that tumblr is doing recently. How empty and cold the dash feels without the avatars next to each post.

I really don't have a good feeling about all of this.

hopefully i'll eventually get up to being able to do more writing here && obv phel but predominately here. made this bc i thoroughly enjoy writing mothers/motherly/family kinda stuff. kyo kara maoh rpc were like a lil family to me in the past bc i rp'ed the demon brothers' mom. honestly wonderful memories wouldn't trade 'em for the world. i know i shouldn't feel guilty bc this is both low activity for the reason i know my health is awful and also bc hobby and whatnot. just kinda ???? a force of habit from past experiences on old blogs and yadda yadda anons being not so nice bc my past graphic design student butt took a while on longer replies. even tho i shrug at the fact i find it ridiculous now words unfortunately stick so gotta work on that. but yeah. i hope i can eventually write more and throw out stuff like starter/plotting call stuff here & phel. i've just been suffering severe fatigue the past while and unfortunately my family doctor isn't around until march bc she had an emergency to attend to. hope she's okay she's a sweet lady i've seen since i was wee lil. but yeah. late night sleep-deprived bc i cannot breathe ramblings. tl;dr hope i can get to the point to write more and do more stuff bc i wanna. been with wavering health and extreme fatigue so that's been my major block. anyways sorry for a semi-downer but i guess (?) just where i'm at kinda post. i hate talking abt my health bc it's just a constant i'm not anywhere in good health. kinda used to it even tho it's sad i have to be. but yeah. i hope i can get to a stable enough place i can reach out more and write more. i love doing that. y'all also honestly make me feel cozy & nice. glad i gave tumblr rp another shot bc i missed it. yeah this post is long. my tl;dr is p much useless at this point. i'm bad at mindlessly rambling. it's how i learned twt dm & tumblr im have character limits. if you didn't know they do. fun facts with your local floof gremlin. okay i'll shut up for real now.
