I NEED people to understand that condoms aren’t free because “MEN like to FUCK lol,” they’re free because thirteen thousand people die from AIDS every year in the US alone.
Stop framing free menstrual products as more essential than free condoms. They should BOTH be free.
I’ve seen a lot of posts on my dash tonight about users who are threatening suicide, with other Tumblr members posting in effort to try to get ahold of them. I think you all should see this:
IF THERE IS EVER A TUMBLR USER WHO HAS POSTED A GOOD-BYE MESSAGE, SUICIDE NOTE, VIDEO, OR ANYTHING OF THE SORT, PLEASE FOLLOW THIS POST.
1. Scroll to the top of your dashboard.
2. See the circular question mark icon at the top? It’s the third one over from your home symbol. Click on that, and a screen similar to the one in the picture will come up.
3. Where you can type in questions, the box with the magnifying glass at the top, type in the word “suicide.”
4. Click on the first link that shows up. It should say, “Pass the URL of the blog on to us.”
5. Type in the user’s URL and tell Tumblr admin that the user is contemplating suicide and has posted a message indicating that they are going through with it or will be attempting. Hit send! Tumblr administration will perform a number of actions to contact the user and take the necessary steps to prevent the suicide.
TUMBLR: THIS COULD SAVE A USER’S LIFE. PLEASE DO NOT IGNORE SUICIDE THREATS.
Reblog this to keep other users aware. Suicide isn’t a joke, and neither is someone’s life. If you didn’t know this, someone else may not, either. Pass it on.
Why are college buildings so cold??? I’m sitting in English and apparently there’s a tornado in the room because it’s so windy
Writing Tips
Punctuating Dialogue
✧
➸ “This is a sentence.”
➸ “This is a sentence with a dialogue tag at the end,” she said.
➸ “This,” he said, “is a sentence split by a dialogue tag.”
➸ “This is a sentence,” she said. “This is a new sentence. New sentences are capitalized.”
➸ “This is a sentence followed by an action.” He stood. “They are separate sentences because he did not speak by standing.”
➸ She said, “Use a comma to introduce dialogue. The quote is capitalized when the dialogue tag is at the beginning.”
➸ “Use a comma when a dialogue tag follows a quote,” he said.
“Unless there is a question mark?” she asked.
“Or an exclamation point!” he answered. “The dialogue tag still remains uncapitalized because it’s not truly the end of the sentence.”
➸ “Periods and commas should be inside closing quotations.”
➸ “Hey!” she shouted, “Sometimes exclamation points are inside quotations.”
However, if it’s not dialogue exclamation points can also be “outside”!
➸ “Does this apply to question marks too?” he asked.
If it’s not dialogue, can question marks be “outside”? (Yes, they can.)
➸ “This applies to dashes too. Inside quotations dashes typically express—“
“Interruption” — but there are situations dashes may be outside.
➸ “You’ll notice that exclamation marks, question marks, and dashes do not have a comma after them. Ellipses don’t have a comma after them either…” she said.
➸ “My teacher said, ‘Use single quotation marks when quoting within dialogue.’”
➸ “Use paragraph breaks to indicate a new speaker,” he said.
“The readers will know it’s someone else speaking.”
➸ “If it’s the same speaker but different paragraph, keep the closing quotation off.
“This shows it’s the same character continuing to speak.”

My cishet straight man roommate: “I’m a *philosopher*. I have absurdly high standards for all art. I’m a manic pixie poet photographer who listens to Death Grips religiously. I don’t even watch video essays without critiquing them like Scorsese. Genre fiction isn’t art, only high art is art. Sabrina Carpenter isn’t a real artist, BTW; not like the Beatles.”
Also my roommate: “Haliey Welch is legitimately a postmodern performance artist.”
Me:
My boyfriend: art is a quasi divine thing, it is the pinnacle of human creation. Essentially, art is an artifice in which the artist imbues a particular lens in which a artist frames a particular object so as the viewer can interpret said object. Art exists separately from the medium; every medium can be used to make something entertaining or well crafted, but that doesn’t make it art, let alone good. Good Art will further its medium/media and/or give meaningful commentary on the world or human condition. *Good* art extends upon being aesthetically gratifying. This is why Sabrina Carpenter, genre fiction, blockbusters, Marvel, etc aren’t art, they’re merely entertainment.
Also my boyfriend: Hailey Welch is a post-modern performance artist
Here's to a new year with more friendship and fun
Write down your 2025 goals! We want this year to be memorable :))
Reblog this if you think teachers should tell students where/how they were incorrect on an assignment instead of just telling them they were incorrect
friendly reminder you are what you consume!
If you’re constantly consuming negative videos, posts, ideas, then you’ll feel depressed and have a negative mindset! Media can and does affect mentality!
This is unfortunately so me...sorry no one is safe
I’m just a 16yo girl who loves to read, movies, art, sports, and music. I love being a fangirl, please don’t make me become an adult. I don’t think I’m made for that
Me watching the drama between recasters and anti-recasters even though I know nothing about dolls or what a recast is.
The fact that Raven is canonically a Swiftie is really funny to me

That post about death note being "everyone's first anime" (untrue statement) made me curious and now I want to gather data for science
Can you reblog this and tell me where are you from and what was your starter anime?

These are so cute!!!
Hey dollblr new dolls just dropped: https://x.com/navinity_art/status/1821092597353370051
They're called "Secret Findees: Magic Mailbox"
They're tiny 2 inch dolls in mailbox style houses, there are 4 of them 2 per color. 2 for the pink box and 2 for the purple box. There are colored QR codes on the bottom of them that are color coordinated to each doll apparently. I linked the creator's twitter where she shared the commercial and here is a direct link to the youtube video of the commercial: https://youtu.be/V3o5zrIrkvs?si=pV6NasBFht3tbnvI
I have Cats and Soup but I can never decide on what to name them so I just remember them by their clothes. Sometimes, I remember their species, like I have a Russian Blue cat but it’s mostly their little outfits
Ok new thing, rb and put in the tags:
Do you have the game cats and soup
If you have it, do you name your cats anything specific (I name all of mine after flowers, my friend names his after musicals)
If you do, how do you name them
Examples! Tell me the names of your cats and soup cats
Rainbow High dolls that we totally should have gotten
A doll with a prosthetic leg
I still don’t understand why they had this option and didn’t use it (cough cough Michelle)
it would be amazing to see and could be shown off with an asymmetrical skirt, similar to what monster high is doing with showing off Frankies leg but make it cuter
Her prosthetic would be functional and fashionable, I would love if she was inspired by Xiao Yang and YVMIN, iirc I remember seeing someone make a custom version of a prosthetic for their rh doll but I can’t seem to find it (if anyone knows what I’m talking about please tell me!) edit: thank you to @dollelujah and @toastydoll for sending me the doll with the prosthetic made by caapdoll on Twitter/X
A doll in a wheelchair
Her wheelchair would match her outfit and she would decorate her wheels to coordinate!
She would have a skirt, not too long that it would possibly get caught in the wheels, but also not too short that it wouldn’t cover anything (seriously rainbow high dolls are so exposed when they sit, also pants don’t work when the dolls sit)
adisabledicon on instagram is exactly what her username says! She honestly already reminds me of a fashion doll it would be amazing to see her style and mobility aids as a doll
Listening to literally any EPIC song is a completely different experience now that Thunder Bringer is out

Please be aware that the "opt-out" choice is just a way to try to appease people. But Tumblr has not been transparent about when has data been sold and shared with AI companies, and there are sources that confirm that data has already been shared before the toggle was even provided to users.
Also, it seems to include data they should not have been able to give under any circumstance, including that of deactivated blogs, private messages and conversations, stuff from private blogs, and so on.
Do not believe that "AI companies will honor the "opt-out request retroactively". Once they've got their hands on your data (and they have), they won't be "honoring" an opt-out option retroactively. There is no way to confirm or deny what data do they have: The fact they are completely opaque on what do they currently "own" and have, means that they can do whatever they want with it. How can you prove they have your data if they don't give everyone free access to see what they've stolen already?
So, yeah, opt out of data sharing, but be aware that this isn't stopping anyone from taking your data. They already have been taking it, before you were given that option. Go and go to Tumblr's Suppport and leave your Feedback on this (politely, but firmly- not everyone in the company is responsible for this.)
Finally: Opt out is not good under any circumstance. Deactivated people can't opt out. People who have lost their passwords can't opt out. People who can't access internet or computers can't opt out. People who had their content reposted can't opt out. Dead people can't opt out. When DeviantArt released their AI image generator, saying that it wasn't trained on people who didn't consent to it, it was proven it could easily replicate the styles of people who had passed away, as seen here. So, yeah. AI companies cannot be trusted to have any sort of respect for people's data and content, because this entire thing is just a data laundering scheme.
Please do reblog for awareness.
