1) there is no algorithm for your dashboard. can’t stress this enough. your dashboard is in chronological order of posts and reblogs from people you follow. “based on your likes!” is a joke and they removed that feature in a week
2) because of the lack of algorithm, likes do nothing. if you want more people to see a post, you have to reblog it so it goes on your follower’s dashes
3) the vast majority of posts on a person’s blog tend to be reblogs. think 90% or so. some of those will have that person commenting on it, and more will have tags
4) comments stay on reblog chains, while tags only show up on your reblog of that post. it’s kind of like a whisper voice. in either case, both op and the person you reblogged from see that in their notifications
5) tags don’t go in the body of the post. writing “staying in #lasvegas” won’t make it appear in the las vegas tag, it’ll just look weird
6) it’s totally normal to reblog and post multiple things in one day. it’s normal to reblog the same post twice in a row. it’s normal to have 100 posts+reblogs in a day. post limit (the total number of original posts and reblogs) for a single day is 250. you heard me. 250. go hog fucking wild
7) it defaults to having a visible likes tab on your blog (but only on your blog, not the dashboard) but most people toggle it off
8) “tumblr clout” is a fucking joke. no one can see your follower count, and no one makes money here. there are no influencers. enjoy not giving a shit about maintaining a public persona. it’s all anonymous and your employers won’t find you here
9) there is literally nothing stopping you from copy-pasting the entire Bee Movie script onto any post you reblog. your followers will hate you for it, but fuck ‘em
10) it’s okay to block people for any reason. for instance, if someone tells you they might copy paste the entire bee movie script onto your posts. nothing personal, kid. arrivederci
“2) because of the lack of algorithm, likes do nothing. if you want more people to see a post, you have to reblog it so it goes on your follower’s dashes”
doubly important for “content creators,” otherwise known as artistsusually
traumacore/cope haters rlly be like: ‘i can afford therapy and accommodations so you should too!!!!!!!! u have no excuse to nOt be as privileged as me!!1!1!!!! ’
how do you casually tell someone “i want nothing more than to hold you in my arms and make sure you know that nothing can hurt you as long as i’m here” without being weird
A note from Lucy: so while this isn’t a “IM BACK FROM THE DEAD PEOPLE LISTEN UP BECAUSE BOY DO I HAVE A LOT OF STORIES TO TELL”, it’s much more rather “a peace offering from the writing gods”. However, that’s not to say I don’t have more on the way. On currently writing for another fandom at the moment. I’ve got an outer banks fanfiction out called Transient that is love for you all to read. It’s over on my AO3 and the account is called mild_kleptomaniac. That it for now. Hopefully, I’ll have a few more updates sooner rather than later. But I can’t promise much as I’m eating to finish Transient fist. Love you all so much! Thank you for this who have paitienlt waited by my side while I wrote this and many more. This one is a special one for Liz (@codename7). Not for any particular reason other than for her constant support in me and what I love to do.
It has only just occurred to me why they say ‘inlove’. You are fully submerged and surrounded by your devotion to another. How do you do it? Are you thaumaturgical? Is this that I think it is!

Humans have a very silly habit of diluting feelings into words. Apparently, it makes it easier to digest. This habit of ours is so easy to slip into that we never recognise spin it ourselves.I believe it is completely ridiculous because feelings aren’t meant to be easy. It’s how we determine what is worth our time and if we want to continue living in those feelings. It’s based on a gut feeling.

For we are only human in each other’s eyes, I see delight in the littlest of actions and things others deem to be common; Fresh strawberries and white cream laid out on a gingham blanket. Soft silk woven into clothes you drape over arms, shoulders and chest. The natural skipping of a heart that is synchronised to my breath and my breath only. To me, that’s what I want to name bliss.

Home is not where I am. Home is wherever you may be. Settle your roots into the soft ground and let that earthy musk cover its blanket of green leaves and a summer breeze. You make us at home. No roof can compare to the
shelter you give us every day just by encompassing us with your arms. Let that warmth in your embrace lull us to sleep so we may never wake again unless we can down eternity in this extinct state.

You and I both know it cannot last forever. But we both find solace in short moments of relaxation. For now it is enough. Though I cannot pretend in false hopes and hold a fragile faith in a false god to wish it not so.
Another river walk! I found this beach on accident, it was lovely and inviting, but this is the south baby, so I didn’t stay long. Not trying to be gator breakfast
Hey! Due to personal reasons, I will no longer be active on this blog. I love tumblr, your guy’s support has been great, but I can’t juggle school, family, and everything else along with this. I’ve been trying, and it just hasn’t been working out. Maybe I’ll eventually be back, but I really can’t guarantee anything. Apologies!
hey guys, sorry for the random unannounced hiatus. not gonna get super into detail, but I basically had to take a break for mental and physical health reasons. I’ve been dealing with a lot of stress which was starting to manifest in the form of insomnia, which meant my worn-out brain was very much notup to the task of handling work, school (recently had to start taking courses for the career path I’m on now, which is the first time I’ve had to worry about school stuff in more than a decade and it sucks so hard oh my god), real life obligations, and fandom. so I put fandom on the backburner since it was the only one of the four where that was really an option. I should have made an update post at some point, but tbh I’m also kind of glad I didn’t because my ADHD brain consistently fails at estimating how much time is needed for something, and so if I had posted an update I’m positive I would have made a bunch of promises on a return date and then repeatedly had to walk those back. and that would have just led to more stress.
anyway but having said that, I’m pretty sure I’ll be ready to start catching up in the next few days. my brain feels like it has gotten used to the current workload and has finally had enough rest to get up to speed again. and more importantly, being four chapters behind on BnHA makes me feel like I’m stepping into a potential minefield of spoilers any time I open up tumblr lol. Horikoshi’s pacing is kind of wildly inconsistent as of late, and so it feels like anything could have happened in the interim here. maybe he’s spent the last month doing more side character tribute chapters. or maybe the final battle is already halfway done and Deku and Kacchan have already had their Cathartic Hug Chapter and we found out who OFA Two was and Tomura has powered up yet again and is walking around with long Sesshoumaru hair. please don’t spoil me either way if you would be so kind (in fact I would prefer no comments about BnHA at all so I can read those chapters free of expectations), but I’m looking forward to finding out, hopefully shortly.
anyway so yeah, that’s my update and I am sorry for vanishing for three weeks with no explanation! hope everyone is doing well. and that tumblr hasn’t made any more wacky changes like banning tags entirely or introducing Tumblr Shorts or any other weird shit lol.
okay but dwarves put SO much effort into their tombs already, carving perfect stone and inscriptions and making records to bury kin with kin and everything, let alone for Gimli son of Gloin Lord of the Glittering Caves.
The years of planning and amounts of paperwork and arrangements for the tomb of Gimli son of Gloin Lord of the Glittering Caves one of the Nine of the Fellowship one of the Heroes of Arda the Elf-friend and sturdy and possessor of the three hairs of Galadriel would be IMMENSE
and then Legolas rocks up in Gimli’s final days of life like: ok so I built this boat

More and more often I went alone when some stranger appeared suddenly in the dooryard, asking for healer or midwife. Daniel Rawlings’s casebook began to acquire new entries, and the larder was enriched by the gifts of hams and venison haunches, bags of grain and bushels of apples, with which my patients repaid my attentions. I NEVER ASKED FOR PAYMENT, but something was always offered.
