I’ve seen a lot of posts on my dash tonight about users who are threatening suicide, with other Tumblr members posting in effort to try to get ahold of them. I think you all should see this:
IF THERE IS EVER A TUMBLR USER WHO HAS POSTED A GOOD-BYE MESSAGE, SUICIDE NOTE, VIDEO, OR ANYTHING OF THE SORT, PLEASE FOLLOW THIS POST.
1. Scroll to the top of your dashboard.
2. See the circular question mark icon at the top? It’s the third one over from your home symbol. Click on that, and a screen similar to the one in the picture will come up.
3. Where you can type in questions, the box with the magnifying glass at the top, type in the word “suicide.”
4. Click on the first link that shows up. It should say, “Pass the URL of the blog on to us.”
5. Type in the user’s URL and tell Tumblr admin that the user is contemplating suicide and has posted a message indicating that they are going through with it or will be attempting. Hit send! Tumblr administration will perform a number of actions to contact the user and take the necessary steps to prevent the suicide.
TUMBLR: THIS COULD SAVE A USER’S LIFE. PLEASE DO NOT IGNORE SUICIDE THREATS.
Reblog this to keep other users aware. Suicide isn’t a joke, and neither is someone’s life. If you didn’t know this, someone else may not, either. Pass it on.
I did more knitting for this pie crust than I have on my actual knitting WIP in the last week
I need every single person to understand how horrible tumblr’s tagging system is
I go into the tag for epilepsy and its all flashing lights. We can’t use our own tag because people without epilepsy fill it up with improper warnings.
Use ‘flashing’ in place of ‘epilepsy’ in your tags. You aren’t warning people of epileptics, you’re warning us of flashing lights. Please please tag properly. Epileptics say this endlessly and constantly and it’s ignored. You are risking lives by doing this.
Here’s proof of what I mean:
So wait are livestock guardian dogs to their flocks like… Clark Kent among the residents of Smallville? He’s been here since he was a baby, we all know him, and he’s… generally one-of-us shaped, uh, approximately. And then when something goes wrong he suddenly leaps into action and does some terrifying impossible shit none of us could do. And then comes back home and settles in like nothing happened and he’s one of us again.
I can Instantly spawn a Tree full of Kittens! Cute and Eco-friendly.
fun thing about herding and/or generally neurotic breeds: they are really good at following rules you have instituted, but they will also make their own Dog Rules they will follow stringently whether or not you like it
firefox just started doing this too so remember kids if you want to stream things like netflix or hulu over discord without the video being blacked out you just have to disable hardware acceleration in your browser settings!
Also a lot of people dont say interstate or highway they just call it the number/letters (I10= interstate 10, US 95= US highway 95, 244= state highway/freeway 244, route 66= US route 66).
Another thing is State routes sometimes are just normal roads in town and as you get out of town morph into a highway as you get out of city limits.
I good way to get your characters lost is have a bridge outage and have them try to find another way without looking at a map. This happened to my Family once, the bridge to cross the Mississippi near Baton Rouge Louisiana had a chemical spill and they were forcing everyone off, but hadn't put up the detour signs yet, we decided to go south after getting off and ended up in residential swamp land. The atlas (big map book) had nothing, Garmin had no idea where we were and we keep turning down streets and hitting dead ends. We couldn't even find our way back to the Main streets I don't even remember how long it took us to try Google maps which finally included the streets we were on (this was like 10 years ago, which is why we didnt think of that sooner).

Your mom and aunts aren’t on tumblr. Please warn them about this as well.
