Only Day You Can Reblog This

As an alternative to 'sugar, spice, and everything nice'

I present: 'salt, vinegar, and everything sinister'

Which of these would you rather see on your dash?

Hey @staff. This is a perfect example of why collapsed reblogs is such a bad idea. Seeing the full thread, you go like this: 😮 ooh, that's cool 😀 "they're free," hehe! 🤣 "16 cents," perfection!!

I have achieved joy, I feel positive feelings toward Tumblr, I want to engage, I want to stay, my eyeballs land on more ads, you make more money, everyone wins! 🎉

Seeing the collapsed thread, you go like this:

😮 ooh, that's cool 😐 "16 cents"? yes, that's literally what the pic shows, not sure why you felt the need to say that

There is no motivation for me to uncollapse the reblog chain—it looks like a boring conversation about the denominations of coins. And even if I do uncollapse it, you've ruined the joke by showing me the punchline before the setup. I am sad, Tumblr is boring, I go elsewhere to entertain myself, I see less ads, you make less money, everyone loses. 😥

Reblog chains are the best thing about Tumblr. They are your unique super power. They are the thing that makes people screenshot Tumblr and share it around. Why on earth would you kneecap them??

I don't know exactly how you plan to implement this. Give people the option to keep them collapsed if there truly are people who are annoyed by how long they can get (you already have a version of this feature), but don't collapse them for everyone or new users by default. Please. It will make Tumblr so much more boring.

What do you think a knight of hope could be like?

Hmmm.

The Knight of Hope

Knights are a fun class. Maybe you all like the fact that I think that they're passive. Dunno.

Knight - passive exploitation class, one who serves aspect, or serves through aspect for others.

Hope - control over positive emotion, and hope itself.

The Knight of Hope is one who serves Hope, or serves through Hope for others.

The opposite to a Knight of Hope is a Thief of Rage.

The Knight is going to be one of the more offensive defense players. They're able to weaponize the Hope of their teammates, and if they get them hopped up on the simple belief that they Can, then the team is basically unstoppable.

Even the littlest bit of Hope in any of the team members can be exploited and expanded.

The Knight's going to be the motivator. The one who says "we can do this because I believe so and you do too" and everyone will go along with it. They aren't leading the party, because they're not fit for that, but they've got your back regardless.

Knights often put up a facade ghosting their opposite aspect, as they start out with a small deficiency in their aspect. This means that, in the beginning, the Knight of Hope might act more like a Rage player, being a downer, someone who didn't have a lot of Hope in their own life, so they don't have any as a result. Once they get over this barrier, though, they'll really be able to turn the tides.

They're the type to believe strongly in something until the moment they realize that it's futile or simply incorrect, and this could either be from fact or the Knight's own insecurity, so having someone to support the Knight will also help.

Pre-God Tier, I see the Knight of Hope as someone who's had a lot of letdowns in their life, empty promises leading nowhere and they just need that extra push to keep them from going hopeless.

Though so long as they can overcome these challenges, the Knight of Hope will make for an excellent player and an even better friend.
