You Know, An Interesting Tumblr Transformation That's Happened Gradually, And Which I've Seen No One

You know, an interesting tumblr transformation that's happened gradually, and which I've seen no one talk about: ask-culture has essentially dropped off to nothing.

By which I mean, asks used to be WAY more of the tumblr economy. They used to be more common to send, and receive, and see. They were integral to the collaborative, forum-like behavior of old tumblr communities, not even to speak on the HUGE number of ask-blogs that used to exist to only be interacted with in ask-form.

I'm not saying this in a vying-for-attention way but instead in an observational way: I used to get way way more asks in like 2015, even with a fraction of my follower count. I wonder if it's due to the homogenization of social media sites? There's a lot more of this divide between "content creator" and "consumer" instead of just a bunch of peer blogs who would talk to each other. "Asks" aren't really a thing on twitter, are they? And as I understand it, the closest thing to an "ask" on instagram or tiktok would be a creator screenshotting some comment and responding to it in a new reel or video or whatever those content mediums are. Are asks just too tumblr-specific? Is that aspect of the site culture dying out as more and more people converge to using all their social media sites in the same way?

Please donate and share, your support will help me get the life-saving Humalog insulin injection I desperately need.

Hello everyone, I'm Dalinda a Palestinian and I have been diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, a condition that requires a delicate balance of insulin—a precious resource in my war-torn homeland of Gaza. I am in a constant battle to secure the insulin that is essential for my survival. With medical resources running low and hospitals overwhelmed, getting the medication I need has become a daily and dangerous challenge.

My situation became even more critical when bombs struck dangerously close to my home, leaving me with no insulin at all. With pharmacies closed and aid unable to reach our besieged area, I found myself in a desperate situation. Without insulin, my blood sugar levels skyrocketed, putting me at risk of falling into a coma.

I am asking for your support. Your help could truly mean the difference between life and death for me. Please, help me obtain the insulin I so desperately need.

MY GOAL $194/$460

URGENT HELP 🚨

Hello, I'm Ola, a graduate student from the faculty of science - Al-Azhar University in Gaza Palestine. I truly appreciate you taking a moment to read my story. As you reading my message, myself and my family, “my mother, father, three sisters, and my little brother,” are fighting death in northern Gaza and trying to survive under all kinds of suffering including but not limited to destruction, fear, and instability, starvation, thirst, and poverty.

For nine months until now, we have been struggling to get proper food after prices increased by 15 to 20 times, struggling to have clean water for use and drinking. We lacked security and stability as we were forced to evacuate our house and left everything behind. Then we had to move at least three times.

I sincerely hope you can empathize with our dire situation and consider supporting us. You can follow me to make sure I am not a scammer and to inquire about any details. Your generosity has the power to make a significant difference.

Please reblog my post, follow me and boost my posts, and repost the link to our campaign across all your social media.

My campaign has been vetted by @90-ghost , @northgazaupdates , @el-shab-hussein , and @nabulsi 's vetted list, line 205.

Thank you for standing by me ❤️.

Please donate and/or reblog 🥺🙏🇵🇸

SO There’s This Trend On Twitter (maybe Here Too Idk?) Called Pomegaverse Which Is Basically An AU

SO there’s this trend on twitter (maybe here too idk?) called Pomegaverse which is basically an AU where whenever a character is stressed they’ll… turn into an adorable Pomeranian!

The only way they can turn back? …receiving loads of love and cuddles! It’s super cute and fluffy, and I really wanted to draw some Bratworth/Feenie based on it!

This takes place directly after the Daliah trial in AA3, which is why Feenie is so depressed, and why they meet outside the courthouse!
