Ok Y’all I Promise I’ll Reply To Asks Tmrw But Rn I Just Got The Funniest Idea Ever. Ok So Yk How

The TikTok-fication of Tumblr and why it needs to stop before your fave writers are gone for good:

1. “Part 2??”

Unlike TikTok, writing 5,000 words for a fic does not happen in 6 seconds or more. Weekly updates are from a writer who spoils you and is passionate about their story. Don’t kill the passion by demanding for more and not appreciate what’s already given.

2. The DC Conundrum

Many writers on this platform hail back from the ff.net days where dark content is a norm, not like TikTok where even death has to be censored or you could get flagged.

Despite that, writers are doing you a service by sharing fic warnings despite how it may take away from a plot twist or a big reveal. However, there’s a fine line between sharing warnings and downright spoiling our own work. Heed the warnings, don’t be a dick. If you don’t like it, don’t read it. Learn how to filter your own content, too, while you're at it.

3. The Wild Algorithm

Unlike TikTok, Tumblr’s FYP is not in your face and you have a choice to not view it. Content often gets buried a few days after it’s posted without reblogs or comments to keep it alive.

4. Passive Content Consumption

Ties back with point #1. If you’re only sitting back and reading works without supporting the writers, they can’t spend 6 seconds to conjure up a fic. Writing takes time, editing, proofreading. Tumblr is a book club, not a delivery service.

5. De(constructive) Criticism

If an opinion isn’t asked for, don’t give it. Many writers choose this craft for their own enjoyment and to share a thought or story about a beloved character to those who love them, too. If an opinion is asked? Be kind when you share it across to them. No one likes their hard work to be shat on by someone who doesn’t understand the time and effort it took to create this piece.

6. Are You My Content Machine?

Again, back to point #1. Writers have busy lives. There are days when we want to scream into the void about our favourite characters. We want to share our thoughts about them or sometimes, we just want to talk about what happened during lunch break. Demanding and expecting that a writer post content without giving a shit about the soul behind the screen? Dehumanizing.

Don’t ruin the experience for those of us who are still here. Do your part to make fandom better for everyone.

EVERYONE BOYCOTT!!!

God I really hate the fact they're trying so damn hard to get reader to apologise yet avoiding the reason why they should

no fr!! they’re the experts of not taking responsibility directly fr 😭😭😭

Jason: “I’m NOTHING like Bruce, okay? We’re not even that similar. That’s all in your head.”

Dick, perched on Jason’s couch watching him gear up, sipping a Batburger shake: “so you’re NOT about to go deal with your emotions by going out on patrol and beating people up?”

Jason: *sets down the brass knuckles he was just holding* *stares off into the distance*

Jason: “These are just…for my — look, I don’t like your fucking tone, Richard.”

Hey I like your series mad woman but you haven't updated it in a while so are you still updating it or have you finished it

heyyy girl! so mad woman is actually part of the "I bet on losing dogs" series, it's the 4 or 5th chapter. if you go to my pinned post, it's on my DC masterlist. I updated the series like 4 days ago i think??? I'm defintely not done yet, I just haven't been in the mood for it lately. I've been more in the Older AU mood ngl.

hii queen, idk if ur alr do this or not but im assuming you don't because it seems like u keep rewriting what you've already written whenever it gets deleted 😓 (which, sorry that keeps happening btw!! i think reinstalling the app might work if that happens constantly? it worked for me but im not sure if it'll work for others!!)

i suggest you write your chapters on like secondary apps or keep copies of it just incase it gets deleted, like the notes app, docs, idk what else lol sorry!! 🥲 thought this might help maybe idk sorry this keeps happening to u, Tumblr can be glitchy like that sometimes fr. i hope you're havin a great day!

heyyyy girl sooooo, i don’t keep copies of my chapters bc i hate writing on anything other than tumblr. ik that’s so weird but when i write on Word or Google docs it feels like i’m doing school work yk??? but thank you anyway ml 🫶

This is an ask following up from million dollar man because that was a masterpiece of angst. Are you able to write a sequel to that ? Specifically how two face realises that Tiffany is fake and tries to look for reader going full yandere because he realised that he was in the desert and fell for a mirage (Tiffany) and now he's more thirsty than ever in his soul because he drove the real fresh stream of water he needed (that being the reader) away.

But, two face can only find rumours of the reader being with slade and slade is a man that unfortunately two face can't afford to make an enemy out of. So, for now, he waits in the shadows for slade to mess up so that he can do anything to grovel and win reader back. Reader in this has moved on from him and has no intentions of ever being vulnerable with anyone like that again. She likes being with slade because she knows she will never trust him and that protects her from being vulnerable around him. Really I just want a fic where two face is privately loosing his mind trying to hunt for the reader and trying to figure out ways to get close to her again even though he knows he has completely ruined this for himself and he knows that the reader will never forgive him for what he has done, in this way he is no better than the batfam and this completely sickens him. This could happen around the same time that the Batfam realises Tiffany is a fake because I just think on the karma side of things it would be so delicious if the batfam and two face all go wild realising they've made such a big mistake but they can only find rumours of the reader because she's long gone and those rumours are not comforting because though she isn't aware of them yandere Slade has secretly let everyone know that she belongs to him and unlike the others he isn't stupid enough to want a fake like Tiffany when he doesn't evet intend to let the real thing (reader) go.

OKKKK PERFECT!!! I am writing another part and it is somewhere along these lines tbhhhh! ugh so much angst- i love 💕💕💕

thanks for the ask babes! i’m cooking it up rn but it might be out tmrw or after!

Hi! Just wanted to ask if you're experiencing some hate comments lately. Been seeing it a lot. Just wanted to ask if you are ok❤️

awwww thank you my love <3333 you're so sweet actually! and yes i have but im getting over them!

Me waking up: I want to write

Me eating breakfast: I want to write

Me getting ready for work: I want to write

Me at work: I want to write

Me eating lunch: I want to write

Me driving home: I want to write

Me at home, sitting in front of my laptop:

hockey player bakugou who always has a feral grin on his face when he shoves around with his teammates, and whenever he takes off his helmet, that unruly bunch of blond hair always spikes up in all the directions regardless of his attempts to tame it

hockey player bakugou who taps you on the shoulder to return your dropped card, he looks down at you and you feel oddly secure having a person two heads taller than you stand with their eyes averted and their hands slightly trembling holding your belongings

hockey player bakugou who you begin greeting during morning practises, he’ll come by and smile at you through the glass pane while you’re stretching in your figure skates

hockey player bakugou who gets teased by his friends when you offer him a bottle of pocari after a friendly match that you bought for him

hockey player bakugou who asks you out after he wins the first college championship of the year
