A Belated List Of Things Redditors Should Know About Tumblr

A belated list of things Redditors should know about Tumblr

The Ides of March (March 15th) is basically a Tumblr holiday. Get ready for Ceasar references around that time of year.

Folks on Tumblr absolutely love dragging and joking about this guy called Ea-Nasir. He’s a guy from 3,800 years ago who was basically a con man and is the subject of the world’s oldest-known customer service complaint letter. 

Always tag your posts for heavy topics that might trigger someone

Don’t use euphemisms for heavy topics when tagging your posts – this makes it hard for people to avoid the topics that trigger them.

You can blacklist topics that trigger or bother you.

You can block people you don’t want to interact with. You don’t need to feel bad about it or have a deep reason for it. You get to curate your experience on here and you don’t owe anybody an explanation.

Go to your settings and change it so that you can see the date a post was blogged. This comes in really useful for when you see news articles.

You can have as many blogs as you want! Some people have a mixed-topic blog that they consider their personal blog and then have themed blogs for their interests while others just have the one blog. Do whatever feels comfortable for you.
