#I WANT TO SEE THIS ON MY DASHBOARD PEOPLE

[borderlinereminders]

A lot of people don’t know that I used to run a fairly popular depression blog. I posted dark stuff before I started recovering. This meant my dashboard was filled with depression blogs as well.

Now, there’s nothing wrong with those blogs and I totally understand why they’re out there. I also understand why they can help since they can feel so validating and help you feel less alone. But I felt so much lighter when I began unfollowing them and replacing my dashboard with lighter things.

I’m not saying this is the solution for everyone since we all heal and cope differently but I think it’s worth thinking about at least! Because for me, seeing the depressive posts on my dash all the time ended up actively preventing me from getting out of the mindset I was in.

You’re valid and I’m not judging you if you have a depression blog or follow a bunch. I just wanted to offer up my own experience in case it can be helpful to someone else.

An Aemond having nerve damage/pain in his eye post has appeared on my dashboard and I just- I might be more inclined to believe it had it not been for the giant gemstone he’s constantly sticking in his eye socket.

I'm more curious about one thing - maybe I have a censored version or something, but where did all these people see the scene of Aemond's eye lying on the board in Driftmark? I often saw posts about how "Rhaenyra wanted to torture Aemond while his eye was on the table!" and I can't see that eye. And if the eye was there, wouldn't Alicent asking if the eye would heal be weird? If it was lying there, she would probably know that it wouldn't, and no one would be surprised by the maester's words that the eye wouldn't be saved? I thought Luke had damaged his eye so much that it wouldn't function, and it was removed when the stitches were opened. Because if not, why did Aemond reopen the stitches, the wound and push a piece of stone there? That he wanted to pretend to be a badass, but he couldn't because his mother told him to cover his eye when he was in court?

i vote that next year instead of reading Dracula we do a Jeeves & Wooster Book Club. those two never got the rabid tumblr shipping fandom they deserved (disqualified for the sheer technicality of being published a century too soon). we must correct this injustice

#jeeves and wooster #i want to watch tumblr go rabid i want to watch ao3 overflow with jeeves/wooster fanfiction #yes obviously the fandom EXISTS but it's a cozy little neighborhood #a handful of talented artists and writers doing their best to keep their charming little village going #but i'm tired of cozy i want this fandom TRENDING #I WANT TO SEE THIS ON MY DASHBOARD PEOPLE #i swear to you if they made a shiny new tv series tumblr would absolutely obsess over these characters. good omens levels of obsession #it's just such a great dynamic! the good-natured overly-trusting bumbling idiot in constant need of rescuing! #the stoic all-knowing genius who quietly masterminds mayhem in order to protect this one moron he's devoted himself to for some reason #jeeves as a morosexual is just such a beautiful interpretation of the original text #wooster as a happy-go-lucky himbo who stumbles his way into a relationship with a protective caring and supremely competent mastermind #the angst and social complexities of a same-sex cross-class relationship in turn-of-the century london! #oh AND half the stories are about jeeves helping wooster get out of engagements/desperately avoid marriage #two men who live together constantly scheming to maintain their bachelorhood. this is quite literally the main plot point #the gay subtext is there! the gay subtext is there and very ripe for picking!!! #this thing is LOCKED AND LOADED we can pounce literally any time

Argyle never gets frustrated with Steve when he doesn’t understand something. He doesn’t roll his eyes, or give That Sigh. He explains things patiently, if a bit abstractly, and when Steve is way off base Argyle runs with it. Is Vecna a vampire? Whoa that would be wild, man! Do you think he can’t have garlic? We could just take him out with a gnarly garlic pie, my dude!

the way you're seeing into my mind.... argyle being really soft with steve and taking the time to make sure he doesn't feel stupid when he's confused is something i've considered AT LENGTH (specifically in dms with @himbohohoharringtxn who has the unfortunate luck of being on the receiving end of Most of my argyle thoughts fdjghkdfj)

i would like to preface this by saying that i am firmly in "argyle and steve are both genuinely smart" territory. i think steve is very neurodivergent coded (i see the arguments for adhd/autism/dyslexia/ocd and as someone who might be autistic but is diagnosed with the other three....i see these arguments and i agree on all fronts) and there's also the head trauma of it all, though that's not what this is about. he's not fucking dumb, he just needs things broken down and explained to him in a very specific way. nothing wrong with that!

as far as argyle is concerned - we've literally seen him in action noticing small details no one else has(one of my fav parallels between them), which ends up being the reason the cali group finds nina and el. he's not fucking dumb either, just delivered to us as a comic relief stoner character with little dimension because the duffers need to be fucking stopped

BUT ANYWAY! you're so right! argyle would see the way steve sometimes gets brushed off and spoken over. the rest don't mean it to be hurtful and steve tries not to show that it does sometimes sting (because it's really not that big of a deal to him and it's not like they're being outright mean) but he would ABSOLUTELY "yes and-" whatever steve's off the wall question or idea was, if anything just to make him laugh, relieve some of the tension. AND IT WORKS is the thing.

it's not just, "duuuude, what if we just lure vecna into the sun? he'll be TOAST in five seconds flat, no fighting necessary. nancy, you can put the gun down, we're gonna hurl garlic cloves at him with a slingshot!" in one fell swoop, argyle is 1. making sure steve feels heard and not spoken over; 2. acknowledging steve's input and effort in a way that, let's be honest, the others don't do very often; 3. putting a smile on the group's faces for a while because fuck they're kids in a stressful situation and need a laugh; 4. putting himself in the line of fire so the others can rag on him instead.

argyle would do this when they aren't even dating yet and steve definitely would not be normal about it, he'd be smiling so big and soft and then argyle would catch his eye and smile back and they'd have this little quiet moment between them amidst all the chaos and dread.

after they're dating though? oh, they'd be INSUFFERABLE. they'd be such a pda couple, with the ridiculous pet names("what the fuck did you just call me?" "don't worry about it, my lil sweet potato pie."), and the open flirting until their friends are fake-retching, the whole nine yards. argyle is hanging off of steve's back with his arms around his waist and not even acknowledging it as he makes his argument to the rest of the group that, "no, no, listen. steve is onto something here, i just know. what if-"

and when they're alone, it'd be less of the theatrics and silliness and more of the gentle patience. they're both smart in really different ways and when argyle gets something steve doesn't and steve is getting a little frustrated about it, he'd take his hand or pull him close and just distract him with a little bit of affection to get him to cool down because he knows being frustrated isn't going to help steve figure out whatever it is. conversely, steve does the same when he's trying to explain something to argyle - though he's less likely to get as frustrated when confused, and more likely to pretend to take longer to get it than he actually does because listening to steve explain a subject he's knowledgeable about is fucking hot, can you blame him? they're just soft with each other, okay

#anonymous #just uh casually dumping a bunch of my stargyle thoughts that you didn't even ask for in your original message don't mind me lmao #if i'm honest the reason i haven't been posting many of my thoughts on this pairing is because there have been multiple times when #i've made posts about other pairings (won't say which bc then this'll show up in that tag and it's not about them. i hate when ppl do that) #and like almost immediately or within a day seen people copy my ideas/hcs about them in such a blatantly obvious way that i'm like #'damn if you're going to copy my homework can you at least change the wording my dude or like. cite your sources or smth' lmaooo #so uh. yeah there were also a lot of other things i wanted to mention but i specifically want to include those in fics and i've had enough #of putting my ideas out there as a 'wouldn't it be cool if' only to see a shittier version of it on my dashboard Within The Day so . #also i need you to know i YELLED when i got this ask sorry it took a bit to answer! bad nap brain again lmao coherent sentences are hard #stargyle #steve harrington #argyle

hello hi there are some really good posts and ficlets about Sandman characters wearing sweaters and this idea is one of my favorites! Dream Team puns from @softest-punk and also Matthew's delightful dialogue in the fic Hounds by @xx-vergil-xx

I think the three ravens of the Dreaming should get to be friends and hang out?

[Dec 2022, pencil & krita, ID in alt text]

#jessamy the raven #matthew the raven #lucienne the librarian #fanart #the sandman #my art #me reading fic: wow Hob and Dream are so compelling #'this is a deeply serious and work with complicated messages about hope and isolation and grief' #me drawing: haha here's a raven being silly #be the content u want to see I guess! #tags people whose writing I like and then runs away #here there be fandom #matthew and jessamy friendship agenda #we are going to all agree that Lucienne's spectacles are in a pocket somewhere #none of them are supervising Dream rn so I hope he's reading just around the corner or smth #can someone tell me if those detail frames look good bc I am definitely winging it with the resolution for those #how do u dashboard

[instantpansies]

nooo dashboard unfucker seems to finally no longer be supported :'((( i was waiting it out and it looks like it's finally been surpassed by an update/patch/smth

i totally understand the creator's reasons for no longer maintaining the project, but does anyone have any suggestions for alternatives? i just want my un-twitterified dash back :/ like i actually hate the way vanilla tumblr looks and works

#rest in peace dashboard unfucker. now that youre gone i might spend a lot less time on this horrible webbed site #i loved you...i love you. i hope you find something better #anyways PLEASE if anyone knows of equivalent projects/alternatives/some way to customize my dash and hide the stuff i dont want #PLEASE let me know #tech #tumblr #predstrogen #dashboard unfucker #technology #web design #tumblr dashboard #idk what to tag to get people to see this (crying) #HELP #customization

[noirandchocolate]

Everybody can feel free to “spam boop” me btw.

I almost never look at my activity feed because I have adhd and forget it exists so I don’t mind if it’s covered in boops or if I don’t know you. Also I wouldn’t care anyway because the boops just get grouped into little boxes and it’s nbd??

So anyway bop me with kitty paws all you like if you wanna get those badges!!

#kidk says stuff #I honestly miss the days when new note notifications were on the dashboard #because then I’d see them! I’d see people’s reblogs and likes even on my older posts! #without having to remember a whole nother page exists! #but I’m small fry and can understand why popular blogs like the way it is now better #((I do go looking for reblog comments and stuff on my newer posts or posts I particularly want to know if anyone replied etc)) #((but like…I really do forget the activity page exists))

[fisheito]

hey kids! time to explain!

#FISHEITO TRIVIA TIME!!! WOWEE!!!! #i started fisheito as a side blog under an older account #an account that accumulated numerous past fandoms and followings #i intended to keep eito as a true sideblog. a separate tiny island to post my art and just. keep my distance #unfortunately... there were too many nuca opinions i wanted to reply to (positive) from the ppl interacting with my art #every time i wanted to join the convo... i held back. bc i didn't want to associate fisheito with my defunct old tumblr #i think requiodile going off about hot slit summer was the breaking point #i could no longer keep my silence. #THESE PEOPLE UNDERSTAND ME. THEY UNDERSTAND MY NEEDS. I MUST ENGAGE WITH THEM MORE PERSONALLY!!! #which pushed me to create an entirely new main account (fishnineo) and transfer ownership of fisheito to it #because. eight. nine. sequential. it came after the eito #so i could freely reply to nuca stuff with a blank slate #you'll see responses from fishnineo/fisheito interchangeably bc tumblr changes the blog source depending where i respond from #idk. i think if i respond from the dashboard it's nineo. and if i respond from my activity page it's eito #it doesn't matter which account u @. i'll see activity for both when i log in #i keep the main (fishnineo) blank in case i ever need it for non-nuca purposes #because as we know too well by now... changing mains is a pain

examining a seemingly normal image only to slowly realize the clear signs of AI generated art.... i know what you are... you cannot hide your true nature from me... go back where you came from... out of my sight with haste, wretched and vile husk

#BEGONE!!! *wizard beam blast leaving a black smoking crater in the middle of the tumblr dashboard* #I think another downside to everyone doing everything on phone apps on shitty tiny screens nowadays is the inability to really see details #of an image and thus its easier to share BLATANTLY fake things like.. even 'good' ai art has pretty obvious tells at this point #but especially MOST of it is not even 'good' and will have details that are clearly off or lines that dont make sense/uneven (like the imag #of a house interior and in the corner there's a cabinet and it has handles as if it has doors that open but there #are no actual doors visible. or both handles are slightly different shapes. So much stuff that looks 'normal' at first glance #but then you can clearly tell it's just added details with no intention or thought behind it. a pattern that starts and then just abruptly #doesn't go anywhere. etc. etc. ) #the same thing with how YEARS ago when I followed more fashion type blogs on tumblr and 'colored hair' was a cool ''''New Thing''' instead #of being the norm now basically. and people would share photos of like ombre hair designs and stuff that were CLEARLY photoshop like #you could LITERally see the coloring outside of the lines. blurs of color that extend past the hair line to the rest of the image #or etc. But people would just share them regardless and comment like 'omg i wish I could do this to my hair!' or 'hair goallzzzz!! i #wonder what salon they went to !!' which would make me want to scream and correct them everytime ( i did not lol) #hhhhhhggh... literally view the image on anything close to a full sized screen and You Will SEe #I don't know why it's such a pet peeve of mine. I think just as always I'm obsessed with the reality and truth of things. most of the thing #that annoy me most about people are situations in which people are misinterpreting/misunderstanding how something works or having a misconc #eption about somehting thats easily provable as false or etc. etc. Even if it's harmless for some random woman on facebook to believe that #this AI generated image of a cat shaped coffee machine is actually a real product she could buy somewhere ... I still urgently #wish I could be like 'IT IS ALL AN ILLUSION. YOU SEE???? ITS NOT REALL!!!!! AAAAA' hjhjnj #Like those AI shoes that went around for a while with 1000000s of comments like 'omg LOVE these where can i get them!?' and it's like YOU #CANT!!! YOU CANT GET THEM!!! THEY DONT EXIST!!! THE EYELETS DONT EVEN LINE UP THE SHOES DONT EVEN #MATCH THE PATTERNS ARE GIBBERISH!! HOW CAN YOU NOT SEE THEY ARE NOT REAL!??!!' *sobbing in the rain like in some drama movie* #Sorry I'm a pedantic hater who loves truth and accuracy of interpretation and collecting information lol #I think moreso the lacking of context? Like for example I find the enneagram interesting but I nearly ALWAYS preface any talking about it #with ''and I know this is not scientifically accurate it's just an interesting system humans invented to classify ourselve and our traits #and I find it sociologically fascinating the same way I find religion fascinating'. If someone presented personality typing information wit #out that sort of context or was purporting that enneagram types are like 100% solid scientific truth and people should be classified by the #unquestionaingly in daily life or something then.. yeah fuck that. If these images had like disclaimers BIG in the image description somewh #re like 'this is not a real thing it's just an AI generated image I made up' then fine. I still largely disagree with the ethics behind AI #art but at least it's informed. It's the fact that people just post images w/o context or beleive a falsehood about it.. then its aAAAAAA

[cold-neon-ocean]

Allow me a moment of a controversial opinion, I actually like Tumblr’s ‘for you’ page because it’s a lot easier for me to see new art and find new artists as opposed to my regular dashboard where it’s mostly non art related text posts and memes despite how many artists I follow lol

So long as those two timelines remain separate and I can keep my dash where it’s just people I follow in chronological order, I’m honestly fine with them tbh :’D

#Matsu Blogging #[ I've seen more art on the for you page in five minutes than on my following page in an hour lol #like that's one thing about tumblr that's never been my vibe it's so meme heavy #with big long text posts and joke posts I don't personally find funny #and that's like the vibe of the site people like to reblog it and that's totally cool! #but art posts just get completely buried #so AT LEAST on the fy page I can see art lol and find folks to follow #without needing to search for specific things #and I think that's an actual good thing about an algorithmic fy page that gets overlooked~ #like I really don't scroll my dashboard much as opposed to just searching people's profules #because the dashboard is just 90% memes and joke posts and random text walls #please I just want a crumb of art #this is why i need to ability to turn off people's reblogs and just see their original posts ]

If anyone ever feels alone with similar emotions just realize you’re not and this is evidence.

[xkinktasticx]

If you are the type of person who says shit like “I’m gonna block this person for liking/reblogging xx amount of my posts wah fucking wah wah”

Do me a great big favor and block me. Right now. Because chances are pretty fuckin high that I’m gonna blow your notifications up at some point if you follow me or I follow you, and then I’m seriously gonna be pissed that I can’t block you in return. Oh I’m so sorry that I relate to shit you post. My fucking bad. You’re only on a website that encourages people to interact with each others posts.

So from now on, if you post about blocking people for stupid shit like showing your lame ass some attention, I’m going to block you. If you don’t want people interacting with your shit, make it private. Problem solved.

To be clear:

Like and reblog my shit as much as you want! Unlike it and relike it and reblog it every damn day. I don’t care!!!

#fuckin wah wah babies #oh no she liked and reblogged things that she related to and might want to come back to later on and I can’t handle it!!! #maybe you should look into using Microsoft notebook or something along those lines #then you can just invite the people you want to view it and no one can interact and the world will be good #instead of throwing a tantrum that I have to see on my dashboard #I’m in a fuckin mood tonight yall

[foxcassius]

people on tumblr get really upset at like. the populace? over really minor things. "you've never smoked a cigarette??" i dont want to "you don't go to the club??" i dont want to "you've never smoked weed??" i dont want to "you don't have sex??" i dont want to "you don't drink alcohol??" i dont want to.

#idk why people who make polls about these things get shocked or up in arms about them #five years ago every single post on my dashboard was about how you shouldn't feel pressured to do shit you don't want #and now people are appalled that you havent partaken in something that can be potentially addictive. #ftr im not some butthurt introvertcel or whatever i DO do half of this stuff its just weird to see the paradigm shift #t

[misswoozi]

My blog gets flagged for posting a photo from Jessi's Instagram but creaamybussie can flash their nasty crotch on my homepage and I can't even hide them?? Fuck Tumblr lmao

#Fuck 'Tumblr live' I'm so sick of seeing ugly naked people whenever I want to scroll on my dashboard 🙃

[luvevee]

Idk maybe it's fine to accept Sada and Turo are just really shitty parents who neglected and abandoned Arven instead of pulling the shortest straws in an attempt to make them seem like they were just sad workaholics who got too caught up in their work like a bad hallmark movie

#like honestly seeing the straws pulled on my dashboard is like...really? #'oh they had two pictures of him!!' they had a picture of him as a toddler and the other was of his dog #by a cabinet full of their trophies and a messy eating area btw not by their bed #'oh well ai said-' ai literally felt so bad for that kid that they felt like they had to make him feel loved by them #and even arven knew it was bullshit and told them to stop #'oh well-' he's referred to as ''the boy'' in their PERSONAL journals that right there shows they don't love him #arven having basic necessities doesn't mean they loved him it's that they knew how to make sure he didn't starve to death #he literally learned how to cook BECAUSE they weren't there so they even failed on that part #you can't say you love your child just because you give them food and clothes and a place to sleep that's REQUIRED of a parent #like wow they have ONE WHOLE PICTURE of arven when he was like 6 they must love him so much /s #literally arven is so traumatized by how he was neglected and abandoned why are excuses being made for his adult parents #i think it really reflects how some people who turned to pokemon as an escape see their own relationship with their parents #because yeah i def know what that's like to be given basic care and not the emotional parts of parenting #and it means people have to confront some shit that's pretty heavy #listen you having basic things like a place to sleep clothes and food doesn't mean you were loved #if your parents were constantly absent/only saw you when they wanted something/always talked about work/were never there for you/etc- #then that's something you gotta talk to your therapist about #treating your kid like a pet store fish isn't love and arven was treated like a pet store fish #people gotta realize that if you feel the need to make excuses for his parents what excuses you're making for your own or other parents #because damn realizing that stuff hits like a brick #this is a rant because arven's issues hit really hard with me playing through the game #and it's big bruh moment seeing people trying to take copium for sada and turo #they're shitty parents end of story #like it's not rocket science tbh but damn therapy is a thing some people need for how far you're reaching for some love between them all #there wasn't and there's not. the two pictures aren't 'evidence' of love #just like damn #rosebud posting 💐 #pokemon #pokemon sv spoilers
