there's a lot to bitch about re: supernatural but at least it was made in 2005 starring teen soap actors on the cw with one million episodes per season. that's real television. if they made that shit now it would be like six episodes on apple tv and glen powell would be in it. so count your fucking blessings.

it seems like there's a common thread between the most recent removal of icons and the previous removal of the reblog chain (which I'm still hoping gets fixed)

namely, they both downplay the identity of the rebloggers of content. like, if someone reblogs something onto your dash, you don't see their icon at all, and you also can't go to the exact post they reblogged

in doing so, both changes disrupt the process of making friends on tumblr by finding people who reblog good content and following them

I don't know if I can make a persuasive argument to you that this is bad for the company you work for, just that I hope you see this focus on engaging content-per-se comes at the cost of what I think you've said is tumblr's strong point, the relationships and community

that is part of the gamble and experiment here, whether or not that learned behavior you’re describing is the best option to try to emphasize for the people who are trying to get into tumblr and finding it totally frustrating and confusing. or if there are alternatives we can try to make the experience easier. it’s a risk. but we can’t learn at scale without taking some risks.

For the love of god just fix the search engine. It’ll make the site a million times easier to use, for both existing and new users, and won’t alienate your current user base

i'm sorry, but this is so illogical and counterintuitive - every site in existence utilizes icons on the primary feed as a way to distinguish who's posting what. it's like the most basic aspect of social media interfaces. nothing about this makes tumblr easier to use (and i find it difficult to believe that the functional and basic aspects of the dashboard are confusing or frustrating for anyone who has ever navigated a website, but removing unique identifiers certainly isn't going to make it EASIER).

actually @ every fanfiction writer whether you wrote something that got thousands of reblogs and comments and became a staple in your fandom, or you wrote one fic and deleted it, or you write mutilchaptered fics that never get a final update, or write short fics, or long fics, or used to write and now you don’t, or you deleted/orphaned your works, or you only share with friends:

thank you.

sharing your writing is hard. and sometimes it’s thankless. sometimes it’s such a negative experience that I wonder how anyone does it at all. but you are needed; you are wanted. whether or not we properly acknowledge it, you are a vital part of fandom culture. thanks for sharing.

Trust Jensen to never disappoint with his craft. He's always in the zone, always available for emotion, even in a split second frame at the end of a scene. The best part is, to quote Sheila O'Malley, his technique in such tiny moments looks involuntary as if the emotions leaked out but is, in fact, very controlled & chosen. And only masters of their craft can achieve that.

the thing about the kripke era is that from s6 onwards the guns stop needing to be cleaned, and there’s always ammo and salt rounds, and joints don’t need to be popped back into place after fights, and when someone walks into a room the people there weren’t busy doing anything else unless that’s the point of the scene, and interactions with one-off characters no longer require those little thankyous and hellos and byes and excusemes that are barely noticeable because those interactions are just transactions to move the plot along, and driving around the country hardly ever involves small bits of logistics like buying gas or charging backup phones or something needing to be replaced, because the world keeps getting bigger and bigger but it’s their world, just scenery for the ones that matter to move around in, and unless showing the small details of everyday life serves a specific point, they’re no longer things that simply happen, casually a part of the day-to-day

You know the whole reason why I haven’t left Tumblr after all these years is because this site is so introvert friendly.

I don’t have the attention span or much less the strength to keep up with Discord conventions (bc apparently fandom is more in Discord these days?? I am not a talkative person to even take part in a group chat *shivers*) or follow with whatever’s going down on Twitter.

I can come on here, make a post into the void and reblog a bunch of posts then ramble in the tags. It’s great. You don’t have to be a person here, you can be a faceless blog and have a grand old time.

From my private meme collection. Since I also work as an editor I often have to remind myself there aren’t actually any rules in writing. I’m happiest when I let myself follow my obsessions, my interests, my fancies and caprices–even if that means it doesn’t “make sense,” or the results are weird, or I never finish it, or no one ever wants to read it or publish it, or it’s 5 words long, or it’s written on toilet paper, or whatever. Sharing for whoever needs to hear this today <3

Thanks! 😎

At its core, I think love is HELP. Everybody is having a hard time. So love is really devotion to their struggle. It’s when you’re committed to helping somebody with their life. Helping them to suffer less. Helping them to manage their minds and their emotions. I think love is a deep desire for our loved ones growth and their blossoming and their all-around well-being. When you love somebody, you want them to feel good, you want them to be happy, and you want to see them succeed in life. Love really demands an in-depth understanding of their hopes and their dreams and their fears, their needs and their trauma. I think love is giving and sharing our gifts for the purpose of nurturing them and empowering them and helping them create their greatest joys. - Will Smith
