#i THOUGHT i recognized that url

[signs-of-the-moon]

Guys I made it, I'm a real writer, I got my first negative comment today 👍

Edit 5/8/23: It has come to my attention that the person who made these comments has been going to multiple warrior cats fanfic writers to request fics, in a similar vain to what he was doing here. Specifically, they seem to be fetish related stories. When a fic writer does not want to fulfill his request, he insults them, usually calling them a cur (lmao. lol)

I have reason to believe this person is @ville234 here on tumblr (although he may be using different blogs by now). A few months back he was sending asks and dms to writers, requesting fetish fics related to bondage and inappropriate pairings. He was called out for it. Another reason I suspect this is the same person is because of his blog header, multifandomfanatic95, which is exactly the same as the username for the ao3 commenter, except the numbers are different. Everyone please be wary of this person, at the very least on Archiveofourown. Minors should be especially careful because of the inappropriate content he asks for. I'm not asking for a witch hunt against him. Just that if he interacts with you, you report and block him.

#''you fandom deserting cur'' is sending meee 💀 #my fic about warrior cats using warrior cats naming and ranking system and warrior code clearly makes me a fandom deserter #I'm clearly not a warrior cats writer because I don't write for canon /s #no but seriously at first I thought the dude just wasn't understanding my first couple explanations #because there's neroudivergent people like that #so I decided to be blunt with a no #because Im certain they were referring to real/canon warrior cats fics as opposed to my fanclans #I'm sure even if I'd said yes they would have called me a liar #also they blockef me after the last comment lmao so I couldn't reply unfortunately #but I was pretty clear about what I write with the first reply right? right?? #plus my answer was a ''no for now''basically #also this fool has been reading my stories since the beginning of moon rise. I recognize their url from my kudos #at this point how do you NOT know I write warrior cats fanfiction? #not sotm #viti shoosh

#asks #luce-is-loose #also you were the one who drew pete with the silly socks in that lautski post right?? #i thought i recognized your url--

[tmmyhug]

these days people will namedrop me in the tags of my big posts when i’m on their dash unexpectedly and half the time i have no idea who they are. how do you know my name

#not a bad thing though #just funny #maybe i would’ve recognized you at some point but either you’ve changed your url or it has simply been Too Long #vees train of thought

[adhdo5]

We talk about "aw my mutual changed their URL and profpic and now I don't recognize em on the dash" but can we talk about "I assumed this person on my dash was a mutual who changed his URL and then I clicked on their blog and they are just not him whatsoever this is a completely different person I don't remember following"

#THE INSANE THING IS ALSO THEY REBLOG GROM A MUTUAL I DO HAVE AND ALSO STILL REBLOG WHAT I ASSUME I FOLLOWED THEM FOR #SO I FOLLOWED THIS PERSON FOR RELEVANT TO ME+ RECENT REASONS #BUT I JUST DON'T REMEMBER DOING SO AT ALL ???? #Maybe I followed em by accident or maybe Tumblr is just on some shit bc I also recently found myself #To have unfollowed a deeply in treasured mut #Idk idk. The mystery blog seems fine though so if they can stay #update its speech pattern DOES sound familiar and then I thought it was a DIFFERENT mutual but no I don't recognize this URL at all and that #has apparently been around for a long time #I just have no idea who this person is #searched in some Discords too Nothing #LIKE. HELLOOOO #Forced to assume this is someone I a) passingly followed and forgot b) accidentally followed bc of proximity or c) was autofollowed to by #Tumblr.edu's wonderful whims #(all of which r equally liklely tbh) #But I cannot shake the fear this is in fact an extant mutual I just don't remember #update 2 OK I checked my following and this is a recent follow so that calms me down more

Tagged by @spacewives-in-spacetime!!!! Thank you I love saying things thank you for the opportunity to do so <3

Three ships: River Song/Rose Tyler (and all other nounpolycule combos but I, Tumblr user riverrose, do not shut up about riverrose. Shocking, I know.), Rumbelle (listen. I would be a different person if Emilie de Ravin had not become a regular on OUAT), and let's go Percabeth since they were my intro to fandom being a thing that exists.

Last song: Began writing this to Love Like Woe by The Ready Set, ended it listening to Drag is Magic by Nina West. Currently listening to my "every upbeat song that was in my music library the day I created this playlist" playlist as I work on latework.

Last movie: Antman! Genuinely a solid 90%+ of the movies I watch are Thursday movie nights with Eliza lmao

Currently reading: Define "reading"? Books I would claim to be reading at the moment include Trail of Lightning by Rebecca Roanhorse, Yiddishkeit: Jewish Vernacular & the New Land, The Talmud: A Biography by Harry Freedman, Le Petit Prince in the original French, and a collection of essays on spider evolution. In practice? I am skimming my reading for my history class and my evolution class just thoroughly enough to get by.

Currently watching: Once Upon A Time (my first time rewatching his early episodes since deciding I don't actually hate Hook so so so so so so so so so much and he is in fact a meow meow), Dexter, and the Doctor Who episode Mummy On The Orient Express - I mean I am watching Doctor Who and have not watched the same episode 4 times in the last like 3 weeks. Don't look at me. Also I am theoretically watching Lost but we'll see when I have the brain power to continue it.

Currently consuming: Trail mix! Specifically I'm picking out the wasabi peas which will inevitably lead to me being whiny about not having any wasabi peas in my trail mix later.

Currently craving: A six cheese bagel with garden veggie shmear like I'm craving every waking moment. Obviously. Also craving rewatching the 1996 Moll Flanders mini series staring Alex Kingston.

Uuuuuuh I believe this is supposed to be tag 9 people?: @zaricats, @ashdoesfandom, @regenderate, @godlovesdykes, @berylgrace, @tenteen, @quantumshade, @lesbiandonnanoble, and @lesbiantwelve

#to those who may not recognize this url my main is fab-wolf-in-the-gloom lmao #and if that doesn't ring a bell either I'm Eleventoo Enjoyer in the Doctor Achoo server despite not being super active lol #help My Alien by Simple Plan came on while I was tagging people #the way I didn't need to use this many fucking words <3 not shutting up in my passion <3 #kasteraxilkemeryapheshexerindaikyat.pdf #<- help I got so confused trying to find that tag because I forgot I spent hours on a thoughtful Teegarden Gallifreyan name #instead of just sticking with ''completely fucking insufferable'' #briefly considered saying Ganger!Eleven/River/Rose because it's one of the ship tags that I was the first (only still) person in #and also because Eleventoo is my baby boy. Guy who deserves more love.

[lock-my-feelings-in-a-jar]

what if we could make private pins on other people’s blogs so we could see a post of our choice that they made every time we visit their blog at the top, maybe directly below their public pinned post, and we get 1 pin per blog which could also be used for knowing who is who if they change urls

#me #you could be like 'i don't recognize that url who is that' and then go to the blog and see that familiar post #and be like 'oh it's them okay now i got it' #this is probably not practical maybe #ignore me i'm just forming thoughts in my head out of nowhere

[saaraofthesand]

Five stages of grief stage two: Anger. Screaming, kicking, beating my fist on the floor because I’ve experienced more of my posts being ripped off by the BSD fandom than any fandom I’ve ever been a part of

#I know I’m overreacting #they’re just dumb posts on tumblr dot com #but it is annoying as fuck #and insulting that they thought I wouldn’t notice #LIKE I RECOGNIZE YOUR URL YOU DUMB FUCK #I know you saw MY post #bsd

[zoey-angel]

Pro of mutuals coming out as trans: we grow strong! We grow healthy! Mentally good! Mutuals in arms :D my family!!

Con: Name changes have been made in both url and bio and I don't know who's who anymore ;;

#i wish i had a way to keep track #it can throw me in a loop when a person i don't recognize is on my dash and then they turn out to be a long time mutual #and not only mutuals #there's someone i had an awkward encounter with a few years back #and i saw a url and thought it was them #but i can't be sure because the name in the bio isn't the one i knew them by #and idk if I'm misremembering or if it's a new name #i need to know in order to figure out my act around them #do i avoid or no #i have anxiety this isn't helping #i know people usually make announcements about name changes but i still miss it and then wonder where my friends went #and they're right there but i don't recognize them #it's so sad for me

[mrfoox]

realizing an old mutual got you blocked is an sad time ):

#i dont think it happened recently probably a year ago or more but i didnt notice until now #understandable tho im curious what was the last straw whoops #miranda talking shit #they got me added still in other places um #i think i've been blked here for a year so now idk if i should bother to delte them in other places #I guess they could have thought i was someone else bc i had an url change back then #Bc they used to have non mutual dni posts... So maybe they didnt recognized me #Otherwise i just was annoying which i think is the most likely. Any mutuals i have ive had for at least 3 years basically

[dogkin]

Can’t believe I just recognized an mspec-phobe like a year after I first knew abt them

#Like. They weren’t that big of a thing in my life #I just saw them being an asshole on omnisexual posts #their url is elegant-vamp for anyone who’s curious. I just recognized them in a comment section and their url is literally still the same #Nothing seems to have changed #Huh #maybe my memory is better than I thought #oliver.txt #mine #Wait fuck no their url is elegantvamp with no dash my mind

[most-tragic-character-tournament]

So,

What a wild ride, everybody.

This tournament went live on July 13th, 3023, and concluded January 1st, 2024. For a long time before, I’d been wondering if I should try my hand at running one of these tournaments, and then I realized we hadn’t had a general tumblr-wide one for tragic characters. I knew that I didn’t know what I was getting myself into, but I decided to bite the bullet and take the URL. The rest is history.

I didn’t have a set plan, but I figured I could take 128 entries. And then in less than a week and a half, I had ~122. And honestly, I wasn’t happy continuing with just those I’d gotten so far, and thought it’d be unfair if it closed that quickly without warning, so I decided to up it to 256 with a max 2 characters per canon after preliminaries. Only after that did I go on a mad search to find brackets that were big enough for that, and I’d almost given up before I finally found these:

Those are all the characters that made it past prelims and into the competition. Some quite unexpected results came out of these matchups, round after round, and honestly I’d consider the first round to have had the most brutal competitions, because I had tried to do the best I could to match levels of popularity with each other, as far as I could tell. (Yeah, that’s why we had c!Tommy v Jon Sims and Primrose v Jinx.). But even eclipsing all of those, as the weeks went on, we were eventually met with Antigone versus Lloyd Garmadon. Ah, those crazy kids.

At some points it was stressful, in the early rounds when I had dozens of posts, each with edited images and alt text, to prepare for every round, but I never regretted starting this. As of posting, this blog has 2,020 followers and has made over 1,000 posts. This will be the last post on this blog—any future asks I receive I will answer privately back to the asker, or cannot be answered if they are anon—but it will always remain here for posterity. The link below is to the similarly-preserved google sheet compiling every word of every submission this tournament ever received.

I’d like to take this chance to say thank you to everyone who submitted characters, supplied photos, sent in propaganda, reblogged the polls, indoctrinated their teachers into greeklitsweep, and everyone who kept good sportsmanship when their blorbos proved so tragic they couldn’t even win. Thank you to the small group of URLs whom I’ve consistently recognized in my inbox from submissions all the way to finals, thank you for letting me know when a name was messed up, and thank you for your patience in-between rounds. (Shoutout to @elemom as well for having their tiktok on the original antigone/lloyd poll blow up.)

If you’ve stumbled upon this blog weeks, months, or even years after this was posted, I would direct your attention to the tag map in the pinned post to sift through the tumblr history you’ve just uncovered. And I would also be tempted to point at the big sign next to it reciting the nuclear zone warning poem. Lastly, if anyone here or there wishes to talk to me about anything regarding the tournament, you’re welcome to DM @twilight-skies.

There were times when I said to myself this was a one-and-done thing—I was NOT dealing with this again, but….keep a look on the horizon, ya never know.

But until next time, it’s been amazing.

Sayonara you weeaboo shits.
