using "what were YOU doing at the devils sacrament" to mean "yeah i made an embarrassing reference but you understood it which is also embarrassing" is very funny to me
my favorite part is that absolutely nobody says this except here. so if you use it in public, it's a dead giveaway that you spent the last ten years on tumblr. but then again, they recognized it, which means they were at the devil's sacrament
no but thank you to tumblr. i dont know if its just my little bubble but the outpouring of "yes, this is scary. im scared too, and i care about you. let's get through this together" is making this so much more bearable.
if your dash is all doom and gloom please know you can change that. unfollow, block, follow more positive pages. you do not have to be cynical right now. there is nothing morally good about refusing to give yourself hope. your pain and fear can co-exist with love and faith.
i love you. take care of yourself. you're not in this alone.
Oh look, just as fast and dirty as any other April 1st gag bit. Matt, Staff, Automattic, etc, FIX YOUR HEARTS. And do some work on the real problem on here.
New boop, same shit
[ID:
image 1 -- digital illustration. text reading "the paws were cute now end the transphobia" is spaced around a circle with the three tumblr 'boop' paws emerging from it. the resulting shape is reminiscent of the transgender symbol that incorporates the mars & venus symbols and their combination
image 2 -- variation of the same illustration. the text now reads, "the paws are back and we're still waiting," and the 'boop' paws have been updated to their halloween variants (ghost, mummy, and skeleton)]
A big reason I can prob never truly quit Tumblr is this is the only website where I can read
[goof joke post about, say, Scandanavian geese]
[witty rejoinder]
followed by “Actually? I’m an ornithologist specializing in the migratory patterns of three specific species of geese over the Scandanavian peninsula, here’s a genuinely fascinating short essay about a highly specific field of work and study, I took quite a lot of time out of my day to write this just because I wanted to share my passion, you’re welcome”
it rules
Yes! This, exactly.
The degree of integration between the shitposts and the deep dives, and the ease of the culture with the transitions just brings joy to my heart on a regular basis.
Apparently dating back to 2015, the almost 10 year old shitpost generator does show its age, but all the more it beautifully captures the tone and style of tumblr shitposts of the era. It's not dated, as much as it is a historical artefact.
it's not THAT outdated
[id: three results from a tumblr shitpost generator. 1: "'unleash the crabs!' i bellow. thousands of crabs scurry in and kinkshame america." 2. "me: harm taylor swift." 3: "excuse me but to be truly trans you have to fight and win against genders." /end id]
Are we entirely sure I DIDN'T make this post in 2015
true
Well that's a blatant lie
there’s a tumblr person right in front of me and i can’t do anything
I don’t think you guys understand. I was in the car as my parents were driving me back to my apartment.
my dad went “What’s a ‘Destiel’??” and my head shot up like a sleeper agent
I... I think I know this person. Like, we've been friends since LJ
Same tho 😂
artists rendition of my first day of college
“this comic is fake” i bared my SOUL to you by telling you this happened to me. i wish this comic was fake
Sorry for double posting but APPARENTLY those commission scammers have showed up on Tumblr at least for the first time for me.
For those who don’t know what I am talking about, there were/are commission scams going on in Instagram and even places like Artstation where people would pretend to be interested in your work and try to commission a pet or portrait for the sake of trying to get your bank details. Here’s how to (somewhat) sniff them out:
1- They don’t seem to be an average customer/ person that would be involved in your fandom, or has a blank template for an account or don’t even follow you.
2- They ask you to draw a portrait or a pet picture either for themselves or their children/family.
3- They promise to overpay you (in the hundreds) and do not listen to you even if you firmly state the price is cheaper.
4- They are constantly asking for your email name, or private details regarding things like banking details or passwords or other private information others should not know.
5- They try and over reassure you they mean no harm, try to guilt you into giving them the info, or become aggressive over you not giving them what they want.
What should you do if you come across one of these guys? My best advice is to block and report. Sadly these people jump account to account so there isn’t really much to do other than spread this info to prevent artists from being scammed.
SORRY FOR A SECOND POST BUT IT HAS COME TO MY ATTENTION THAT THE INSTA COMMISSION SCAMMERS HAVE REACHED TUMBLR LMAO
If you are an artist and take commissions please read, these scams prey on innocent and desperate people and are frankly scummy.
Oh Jesus christ not them
just encountered this as well, commission artists be careful out there
WAIT YOURE KIDDING ME I LEGIT JUST POSTED AND WENT BACK TO REPORT THE BLOG AND THEY DELETED IT LOLOLOL
they apparently hate it when you call them out, thank you sm @chickenhoops cause i never wouldve realized this if your post wasn't the first one i share as soon as i opened the app
Another warning sign is commissioners who insist that they can’t use typical payment methods like PayPal. They’ll try to push you into using much shadier payment methods (including the old gift card trick) that put you at risk and reduce your chance to dispute a transfer.
I had some trouble finding this option. My first instinct was to click the settings button on the left, but that's where it is!
First, you'll click the name of your blog on the left sidebar to bring it up on your browser.
Then click "Blog settings" on the right sidebar once your blog is brought up. That's where they're hiding it.
Click "Prevent Third-Party Sharing" under the Visibility section, and bam! You're done.
Thankfully it's much easier on mobile. Just click the Gear icon on your blog's page, to go to settings.
Scroll all the way down until you see Visibility, then toggle the Prevent third-party sharing option for your blog!!
If you disable this setting on mobile, it automatically synced it to my web browser settings, too. ...But if you use both Web and Mobile, I would still highly recommend double checking that it actually turned off on both!!
Check that it's turned off on your side blogs too! And check your settings every now and then anyway to ensure that it's staying turned off, because if my memory serves right, some other websites will pull some shenanigans on things like this and opt you back in without telling you!
Leave Feedback on New Features at Tumblr Support Here!! Let Staff know however we can that having our content fed to AI at their whim is unacceptable.
And if you have the option to poison your art with Nightshade or Glaze, keep it up!!
u gotta be careful reblogging posts cuz what if you see it drowned in water later
Oh wow! what a beaut! Time to reel her in!
What Are You Doinf To My Poast
idk if this is a contreversial take or not but i think that the ideal internet experience is being able to remove specific things (triggers, nsfw, gore) if you truly dont want to see them but overall being also shown things you aren’t interested in. i think one of my fave things about tumblr is seeing like 50% of my dash be about fandoms im not in, bands i dont like and quotes from books i dont want to read rather than this endless feedback loop of tiktok showing me ‘exactly what i want to see’ in a trap to keep me online as long as possible and blind to communities outside of my own. i want a mix of curating my own experience and a healthy dose of content i don’t already know i want to see, yknow?
man me a sand
Make it the cutest man car door hook hand
i cannot begin to explain the emotions i feel every day knowing that this post i made in the middle of playing tf2 when i was 16 is going to be the one thing of mine that has made the largest impact on the world by a fucking mile
getting a note on a super old post

….. Where exactly do you live that the tea isn’t liquid?!?
ENGLAND. WHERE IT IS IN A BAG AND YOU MAKE IT YOURSELF.

No it’s sweet tea you drink it cold
WHO DRINKS COLD TEA???
HAVE YOU NEVER HAD ICED/SWEET TEA BEFORE?!?
so i reblogged this from a british person and i’ve been laughing at their tags for 600 years
England, you stole tea from China. You’ve had it a mere 4 centuries compared to their 30+. Don’t play like you’re some kind of authority.
[skeletons ooh-ing]
Shots fired. World War Tea has officially begun.
Englad doesn’t own anything
except that time we owned most of the world
If I stop reblogging this, I’ve gone to the other side.
I have only seen this legendary post in screenshots, so today is a blessed day.
HAH
BOSTON TEA PARTY PART 2

Drinking cold tea is like drinking cold hot chocolate. Sure, you *can* do it, but you *really shouldn’t*
Behold concerned Brit. Chocolate Milk
