This Is Literally Why Crows Are My Favorite Animals, People.

Accidentally unfollowing one of your mutuals is the Tumblr equivalent of stepping on your pet

author’s note on fanfic ch4: i’ll probably have it updated by the end of this week!

author’s note on fanfic ch5: so i know it’s been two years but i can explain

reblog if youre an idiot. reblog if youre just a fucking fool.

The number of times I’ve seen strangers on tumblr receive an ANONYMOUS message about someone they reblogged from, often to as vague a tune as “just so you know xyz on that last post is a bad person”

And the secretive whisper campaign recipient responds “omg thank you I’m sorry please don’t hurt me I don’t know anything about that person of course I’ve deleted it”

Is so wild to me

And frustrating

And also there’s this tiny, evil little voice in the back of my brain going “wow, this is so exploitable, you could exploit this, you could spam so many random messages about literally everyone until everything fell to chaos and maybe someone would even learn something”

Except obviously you can’t and shouldn’t fight abuse by replicating its tactics and that would inevitably do harm even if it is really tempting and also I wonder what would happen if someone made a bunch of bots for even more chaos

✨Rules || General✨

Rules || General:

Hello, people! Just quickly, I wanna discuss a few things about my blog and writing/drawing before moving on to my rules

So first off, since I’m rather new to tumblr, and that I’ve only just started with this whole writing/drawing blog, please be patient with me when I’m completing requests/asks.

Secondly, I just wanna note that in my introduction in my welcoming page, I said this blog is dedicated to Mammon (Obey Me) and Yeva (Yuu OC of Twisted Wonderland).

However, while it may be those characters centric here, it doesn’t mean I won’t write/draw other characters. It just means I’ll be focusing on them more because honestly? I mainly created this blog JUST for them so. 👀😅

There’s a couple rules I have here regarding my blog:

Please don’t spam my inbox, despite what you may have sent me, I’ve had several people in the past do that and I simply don’t have the energy in me to deal with all the messages.

Don’t be anti-LGBTQ+, racist, sexist, a MAP (minor attracted people), a homophobe, or anything of that sort. Especially you racists, I’ve dealt with FAR too many racists in my entire life, I refuse to allow you to be here when I welcome people.

Again, please be patient when I deal with my blog, I’m very easily drained when I go out of my zone of lazing about here in Tumblr.

For the most part, that’s about it, unless I need to change/add something. In which case, I’ll also edit Personal Notes on my welcoming page to notify anyone of the change!

Words to replace said, except this actually helps

I got pretty fed up with looking for words to replace said because they weren’t sorted in a way I could easily use/find them for the right time. So I did some myself.

You know those things you think you can't write because they're an emotion not a plot?

Try oneshots!

Oneshots are great because they can be just a single scene or moment. They allow you to write that one conversation you want to write without needing to create a whole story around it.

You wish you could just write about that character getting a damn hug for once? Do it! Who needs a huge context? Just put it out there!

Oneshots, people! Write them read them. Love them. They're awesome.

Angst fics can help people come to terms with their own grief, begin healing, or give people that good cry that they need.

Smut fics can help people affirm and accept their sexuality. It can help them explore their sexuality in a safe way. They can also just be fun, and having fun is a drastically undervalued way to improve your mental health.

Dark fics can help people face their fears or process their trauma. It can make them feel safer and more secure. It can help them find their courage.

Fluff fics can give people rest and respite and comfort. It can give them hope that soft places exist and that maybe there is one out there for them. It can bring up their mood, which, if they have depression, can be a life saver.

And every fic people write makes someone feel less alone.

Point being, just because a particular thing doesn’t serve you, doesn’t mean it lacks value.

This is not to say that we have to consume all fic uncritically. Of course not. It is just to say that entire “genres” aren’t trash or lacking value just because they don’t serve you.
