good fucking lord we need to demystify minerals. crystals do not have healing or magical powers you guys are just getting scammed
“This site unusable when you dont care about the new joke” that’s great honestly. I like when people here suffer over inane stuff, it’s funnier than the original joke, let’s keep it going
Alright, i notice a lot of you have the Generic Tumblr Icons and- in case you dont know- Tumblr has a bad case of Bots so every once in awhile, creators and other blog owners will do a purge.
What do we do in the purge?
We block any and all Bots
It used to be easy but now- not so much
Let me show you a common Bot
Nothing on their page, with a standard icon.
Now, a year or two ago, i know this is a bot and i can block em, done deal!
But now-
I see Ikarus, i think they are a bot
Its the same right down to their posts. No reblogs, but it differs on the likes and follows
But this? This is not good.
Not only are you not supporting your content creators by reblogging their items, but it makes it so hard for those creators not to block you.
And shabang- you end up with a creator blocking you with no idea why.
If you have a standard icon, please reblog from your favorite creators- we're on tumblr, no one cares about the weird shit you like or reblog, and if they do- the block button is there :)
But the first thing to do to get off the block list, is to change your icon. And i'll show you how on Mobile.
Take note, i am an android user, but the process is similar for Apple
Head to your blog, and at the top right corner, you will see a little pallette. This is the universal edit me for your blogs where you can change color and font
Now you can see what i can edit and what's available, my icon and banner, my background and accent, but for now, lets focus on that icon!
This box will appear, you can choose to not show your avatar/Icon, and the shape of a Square or Circle, that's up to you, but for now Choose a photo and use any of which you like! You can zoom in on a photo to get a single character or not, that's up to you.
Tumblr offers many icon sets if you'd like, my suggestion is to not use an IRL photo.
1. Cause its the internet
And 2. You'll still maybe be banned cause a lot of Porn Bots and 'Sugar Daddy Bots' use IRL photos. Like below
Just keep it in mind, and have a fun time changing your icon to suit you!

Genuinely wish we could go back to that time in fandom where creators and fandoms just left each other alone. Please. For the love of god.
I’m sick of people demanding constant answers and information from creators about things that don’t need answers or further information. I’m sick of people using fucking Word of God tweets in their shitty fandom discourse as an excuse to call someone a sexual predator. I’m sick of creators going onto fandom posts and basically telling fans that they’re wrong for interpreting/interacting with content in a certain way. I’m sick of creators giving any opinions on fandom ships at all.
I’m just tired of it. I’m done. We need those boundaries back.
