on the one hand this is a joke post because lol i have never made a good post in my life, but also, if i hadn’t made the connection
between this update and my sudden nosedive in activity, i would have been really fucking discouraged about all the shit i’ve been working on lately. i guarantee there are people on tumblr right now who haven’t made that connection, and who are trying to figure out why suddenly no one likes anything they’ve made. and that fucking sucks.
Reminder to go into your settings and turn off ‘Best Stuff First’ because my activity’s tanked a couple days ago for no reason so this stuff IS happening.
You WILL miss content with that setting on.
i ain’t joking when i say that my activity looks JUST like this too and i wasn’t sure why
I can only find the option on the app under Settings > Dashboard Preferences.
To support content creators do us a favour and turn off “Best stuff first”. Open the tumblr app (Android or iOs) and go to “Settings > Dashboard Preferences. And please reblog this post, so that everybody will see this. Thank you very much!
I assumed I just wasn’t writing very well, but maybe it’s not just me.
Am I supposed to pay to get my writing in front of followers now?
We interrupt your regularly-scheduled sci-fi content because this is important for app users, and it sucks. We all follow blogs because we want to see their content, not to have a crappy algorithm decide what’s best.
This blog is down approximately 80%, which doesn’t affect me other than as an annoyance (as this is a hobby and @okayto is small-ish) but the issue undoubtedly hurts others.
Below are instructions for turning it off. You have to do it individually–it doesn’t matter if a blog you follow turns it off, you’ll still be affected unless you do the same.
We don’t normally reblog PSAs, but this is very clearly affecting us, too! If you haven’t been getting your daily dose of RPG humor, this setting is probably why. Turn it off so you can see all the silly shit players say!
Trying to reblog the versions of these instructions with the most notes, so they’ll actually show up for the people afflicted by this update.
Poor Gwindor gets so little attention in the fandom. We love our elves young and beautiful.
We remember him as a weak, sad cripple, but he begins his story “young and strong” and betrothed to a princess. He goes crazy when Morgoth cuts off his brother’s arms and legs, charges the enemy, & triggers the cataclysmic Battle of Unnumbered Tears. He escapes after 14 years in Angband, bowed and aged by slavery and torture (and didn’t he lose one hand escaping, like Maedhros?) Then Gwindor’s girl falls in love with Turin whom Gwindor has rescued and brought home to Nargothrond. Worse, Turin gives the king disastrous advice, and Gwindor is the only one who sees it and objects, but everyone ignores him.
And yet, faced with the loss of everything he held dear and the rejection of everyone he loved, the awesome thing about Gwindor is that he continues to love Finduilas who rejected him and Turin who supplanted him. He tells Finduilas “go whither love leads you”, and with his last breath tells Turin “I love you, bro. Go save my girl.”
The Aurebesh, an alphabet for the Star Wars universe, created by West End Games art director Stephen Crane for his Star Wars Miniatures Battles Companion rules supplement (1994). The Aurebesh now appears in the canonical films, in phrases that can be transposed into English.

Fun Fact: Kittens learn to hunt their prey using their mother’s tail. This is so cute cause this tail is a lot faster than a cat’s tail but the kitten is doing their best. ❤🐈
Cute 🙂
So what I’m hearing is that training with a dog is going to turn this cat into the APEX PREDATOR
