Replacing My Mental Illness With Vampirism

one of the first prison literature books I read was by a Syrian dissident who witnessed the Hama massacre and was arrested. Syrian prisons were my gateway to understanding the machine of Arab oppression. Its liberation now can't be but a great historical moment

This guy tried to have an attempt at being a terrorist today by trying to explode a statue at Brazil's Supreme Federal Court building but his bomb hit the statue, bounced back and exploded on him??? Dude died like a fucking Looney Tunes character???

may Allah cleanse our souls of any grief towards the past, our tongues of falsehood, our hearts of malice, and our minds of doubt. May He fill our lives with peace, our actions with sincerity, and our path with His divine light this Laylatul Qadr.

I would like to wholeheartedly thank whoever edited “List of Slavic deities” wikipedia page recently. Far from flawless but at least I don’t want to throw myself off a cliff while looking at it anymore.

to those of you who are moving here from tiktok, from someone whos used both tiktok and tumbr for years...

1. DO NOT censor your posts

dont censor sex, abuse, suicide, dont censor it. we dont have censors like tiktok does, you wont be banned for talking about these things and tagging them properly helps people avoid them (also, we dont have shadowbanning here)

2. we dont really have an algorithm

you follow who you follow, and you see posts from who you follow or what you search. the 'for you page' is basically useless here. this also brings me to my next two points

3. dont crosstag

we get it, on tiktok you have to crosstag for reach, but thats not really a thing here. just tag your posts properly (also posters often leave more info about the post in the tags!! and when you reblog stuff you can leave your own notes in the tags, kind of like the old "repost comments" on tiktok)

4. dont expect to go viral/be famous

"viral" isnt really a thing on here (at least not for the average blogger). your posts will probably get 2-10 likes and you wont get nearly as many followers than on tiktok. thats just how tumblr is

5. blocking is your best friend

tiktok is VERY discussion based, and while tumblr is much more discussion based than other social medias, its still not a good place for ragebait/discourse. dont interact, itll make your experience worse in the end, just block and move on

6. you cant go into someone elses house and start rearranging their furniture

this is tumblr, not tiktok. dont diss old tumblr users for how they use the site or try to change them, thats like going into someone elses house and trying to rearrange their furniture. we've been here longer and we're familiar with the site and its culture, either find your niche, adapt, or find a different app
