reminder/tip, particularly for newer pjo fans: do not crosstag!
for those who don't know, crosstagging is tagging irrelevant tags on a post, usually popular tags to try and get more views on the post.
Tumblr doesn't work the same way instagram or tiktok or twitter does. Crosstagging is considered spam, and your blog will be flagged if you do this.
particularly in pjo fandom, crosstagging includes tagging characters that don't actually appear in the post, tagging books or series unrelated to the post (like tagging "TSATS" on a post not specifically about TSATS, or tagging HoO on a post about first series specifically, etc.), tagging "pjo fanfic" or "pjo headcanon" or similar on a post that, obviously, isn't that, and/or tagging irrelevant ships. More recently, this also includes tagging the show (PJO TV, etc) on posts that are completely irrelevant to the show.
This mostly only applies for original posts - Tags you put on reblogs only apply to your own blog's organizational system, and has no bearing on the original post itself. But it's really annoying to the original poster if you spam tags, because it will appear in their notifs. It's pointless to spam tags in reblogs for these reasons regardless, so it's best not to.
just remember: crosstagging is not allowed on tumblr, doesn't work that way here anyways, and is just generally rude. so don't do it.

I already know Kendrick's "A Minorrrrrr" is going to be stuck in my head for weeks, it's just so satisfying and scratches my brain perfectly

randomly curious about how this has shaken out now that it has been around for a while
(following tab is every post from everyone you follow chronologically; for you is the algorithmic dashboard tab that mixes random posts from people you follow with stuff from tags you follow and ?????? random niche subjects i have never expressed an interest in but appear on there for one hour and then never again)

So this evening I've been working on a way to make it easier to add filters to blog pages without JS. This is mainly an alternative to isotope, commonly used in icon, media, downloads, and portfolio pages. CSS only solutions, especially like this, can be intimidating to look at even if you're not new to CSS.
I'm hoping this will take care of the bulk of the work/the more complicated parts so that you can make more complex custom pages without the user having to wait for permission to use JS.
Here's a simple example with just display: none added to the CSS
And on my preview page, I've used the same code and added multiple filter groups and some CSS animations.
If you are familiar enough with HTML and CSS, you can try out what I currently have, but keep in mind you will still need to write most of the HTML and CSS yourself. I want to make a more detailed guide so that it's easier to use soon!
