Guidelines for New Tumblr Users/Harmonious Tumblr Living
- This
is the reblog button. Use this when you see a post you would want in your blog. Don’t save the said picture or gif on your computer and make another post. That takes too long! And if you think, “Oh but this one probably just took 5 minutes to edit”, try Photoshop first, see if you can create exactly the same edit.
- Weheartit, Fanpop, and other sites like these are our enemy. If you’ve seen a great post there, it’s probably from a tumblr user who has worked on it for an hour to make it pretty. If you can, please track the original post (don’t think fanpop allows this though).
- Check your blog settings to allow messages and replies because that’s how you’ll make friends ok.
- A great theme without an autoplay music player is recommended. (Side note: the theme garden is definitely not the only place to find said great themes)
- These:
are tags. These are the best place to express all your emotions without shouting it to the world. Pour your heart out. They are also used for organizing your posts, or helping out people who want to block certain things from their dash.
- When uploading photos/gifs in text posts, do not use this
because it will appear like this
, which other people will have to click on to “load” and see (and it’s annoying). Use this
instead.
- Tumblr is the #1 place to get spoiled on a movie or a new episode of a TV show. Some people might tag these spoilers but not all of them would. So if you truly don’t want to be spoiled, LEAVE TUMBLR FOR A BIT. We love these shows and movies and books so much that of course we want to comment on or make gifs or graphics of them ASAP. Don’t blame us for our love.
- If you’re making a text post to say “I hate [character/ship/show/movie/book]” or something along those lines, do not, I repeat, DO NOT tag it with said character/ship/movie/book. We treasure our tracked tags, and this post CORRUPTS said tags. (And then you will get hate back or a block from one or more persons. No one will pity you darling.)
- Respect other people’s opinions; well, except if they are offensive or triggering or just wrong (and by wrong I DO NOT mean that they ship non-canon ships)
- If you want to block posts with certain tags from showing on your dashboard, use Tumblr Savior. (So long as the people you follow correctly tag their posts, too.)
- Finally, there are many userscripts and add-ons you can install to improve Tumblr. (The #1 thing I can recommend you to get is Missing-e (as in the missing “e” in “tumblr” ;) It allows you to reply to replies, tag your asks, replies and queue, reblog yourself, etc. It’s a must-have, really)
That’s all I can think of; WELCOME TO TUMBLR, ENJOY, and know that there is no escape.
Also:
- When reblogging long text posts, they will appear as links until you click the “as…” button as seen here:
- And then click “as text” as seen here:
If you have missing-e, there’s an option to do that automatically.
Also, OTP means One True Paring. It’s the two people in the thing you love that you know are together. You don’t even have to have it confirmed, it’s that fucking obvious. You have no idea why no one else agrees with you.
Gpoy means Gratuitous pictures of yourself. The most important thing is that you never tag actual picture of yourself with the gpoy tag.
Fandoms are people who like the show. It’s a kingdom of fans.
Sometimes people will refer to Wholock or Avengerstuck or Superwholock. These are crossovers. You take the names of one thing and combine them with the other. Helpful tip: Homestuck uses the “stuck” part. Doctor Who uses the “Who” part. Supernatural uses the “Super” part. Sherlock (BBC version) uses “Lock”.
Forgive fandoms. This is arguably the most important thing you can do to keep your tumblr experience a happy one.
You may want to only reblog pretty pictures of sunsets and make up and cookies and dresses and not deal with fandom. That is okay. It’s your blog and your dash. I don’t have any help for you though.
Above all, do not confuse “they’re”, “there”, and “their”. Proofread your goddamn posts.
Also know that the average half-life of a meme is 2.65 days.
Right now (May 31) BBC Sherlock and Elementary is in a Fandom War over which is the best adaption. Do not get involved. I repeat, Do Not Get Motherfucking Involved.
Good luck and enjoy your stay.
i was inspired by that time lord rave picture
i would say im sorry
but
im not
Penguin in a sweater pops up on dash…finally get to use this gif!
Let me introduce you to the best advertisement of all time:
Homoerotic, Interracial Priests selling Ice Cream.
the best the best the best
alexis this would be us if we were male
and priests
I want to buy this ice cream

Why is it that I feel really creepy when I’m attracted to someone a year younger than I am and yet I don’t feel creepy at all when I’m attracted to someone 20+ years older than I am?
Cards Against Humanity is a party game for horrible people.
Unlike most of the party games you’ve played before, Cards Against Humanity is as despicable and awkward as you and your friends.
The game is simple. Each round, one player asks a question from a Black Card, and everyone else answers with their funniest White Card.
And it is distributed under a Creative Commons license, meaning it is not only free to play, but remixing, and changing the game are more than just encouraged.The official hard copy has been sold out for a while now, but a PDF of all the cards, and instructions distributed by the creators for making your own deck can be found here.
You’re welcome, and enjoy!
Scott brought this home today. You can answer every subject card with Kanye West.
I do own this. From the cards, it looks much better than apples to apples could ever be.
I would like this.
I NEED IT
This is perfect.
Via trivial.
