i usually keep my freak outs in the tags! rarely do i comment on the post directly in a reblog. i understand both sides though. for me, as a fic writer, i love feedback and reading someone’s thoughts. it doesn’t matter where they’re shared. this is the first time i’m hearing about accounts being blocked for this though. wow :o but valid. freedom to block whoever you want. i’m also not sure why i said reblogs specifically because sometimes i’ll make my own posts and end up talking to myself lol.

also, there’s definitely been a change with reblogging. it’s so evident and sad tbh. i’ve been on tumblr since 2014/15 and started writing fics in late 2016. however, i wrote for two other fandoms before discovering kpop, so i totally saw everything you said about interactions, discourse, huge accounts, relationships between mutuals etc, but in other spaces. it’s also interesting to read what you wrote about people heading to twitter. i’ve see the exact kind of posts you mentioned there, but i didn’t consider they might’ve left tumblr. the shift is also obvious when you see someone in your notifs who doesn’t have any reblogs. do you block those accounts? i never have, and idk if i should.

(that is another can of worms indeed. i used to be active on the shawn mendes side of tumblr (yikes lol🥴) and i remember feeling so intimidated by certain blogs. i feel that way a little bit now, but it’s no comparison to how it used to be)

cheers to all those anons. y’all amused the hell out of me. i still see some with similar energy these days… oh nostalgia

please... don't even get me started on fics... i never posted my fics on tumblr (onyl links to them) but even on Ao3 it's pretty much dead... if i didn't love writing so much I would never waste a second of my life writing with the number of feedback ppl nowadays give to ff authors. which is very little. yeah... some blogs were really weird about it. believe it or not one time a blog vague posted about me because I had tagged someone under their post (it was fantaken pics) and then they went on and on about how tagging ppl under their post messed with their notes. they were so rude... I ended up blocking them. like nope. i do not want that energy on my dash idc how many followers u have. but yeah personally I don't think that's something anyone really has the right to be mad about. this is a free website and people are free to do whatever they want (so long as it doesn't include any female body parts ofc *clown emoji*) and even if it mildly annoys me I never get that heated up over it and I definitely don't block bc of it slflsd

yeah I remember how intimidating big accounts used to be... and it feels like a lifetime ago when u think about it... maybe some people just... idk, grew out of the phase? I don't want to believe that ppl who used tumblr for years would move to twitter. it makes no sense. there are definitely people who just found other interests and left and thats normal. what's not normal is those people not being replaced... this stuff usually happens in a cycle. some people leave and some more join but I don't see anyone new around here. seriously, do u know a stan account who is new? literally everyone I know here has been here since I joined this fandom if not earlier.

edit: I forgot to answer to this one!!! abt empty blogs, I don’t usually check the blogs in my notes unless they look really sketcy (/are obv a p08n bot) but ive definitely seen blogs that are completely empty and even have the default icon and stuff. i usually leave them along and give them the benefit of the doubt. maybe they’re fans who don’t want to be active and post stuff and just want to consume and keep up with their faves.

#there's no way to know how many of ur followers are still active sadly #but i can confidently tell u that I got at least twice as much interaction last year when i had about half the amount of followers as now #if u go to my archive last year and filter 'ask' tag there will be A LOT of asks in each months archive #now? maybe 2-3 a month #and it's not like our ult aren't active #when i was a vixx stan blog vixx were active for about 2-3 months in totall in the 2 years i stanned them #and we still had a TON of interactions with our moots and the big accs #starlights would make content from old videos even when there wasn't any new content and we always had so much to make discourse about #monsta x too has so much content that if they stopped releasing content right now we'd still have years worth of content to talk about #they have SO MANY VARIETIES ITS INSANE #as i mentioned the other day i blame this on streaming culture too #people literally don't know how to have fun #they think everything they do has to in some way benefit the artist and that is so messed up #ask #anon

Dear Crashpad Diary #18

Well well well… haha How are you doing?? Sweeeeeet, right?!?!

the end is coming haha and I´d say that it is a peculiar feeling… don’t wanna the hampi trip to come to an end but I´m looking forward to see my bro and find out what Nepal reserves… I have no doubt that it will be epic and the experience will make me love the country… exactly like happened with India!! =)

Well… India will always be in my heart and soul… but for some people, also in their skin!! haha

Don´t get me wrong… there is nothing to do with tattoos or any kinda skin art haha its more related to the bikes… motorbikes!! hahaha I would never get a motorbike normally… I think it wouldn’t work out well for me and I would… because of the speed that I could reach… hug some light post or wall quickly…. that is the main reason for not handle me a bike peeps hahahaha

However…. there are some people that know how to drive and so on and rent bikes in Hampi to make it easier the transport… also… laziness hahaha were here for almost 3 months and we did pretty much everything walking… the things far away we had to take bus and tuktuk.. but its rare though haha

Anyway… people get the bikes here… but what they normally don’t consider is that they are different bikes… those that does not matter what do you wanna… it has its own will and will not give the chance to change it hahahah

We have seen so many people with huge scratches and bandages in all parts haha feet and arms are the most likely targets but backs…knees… faces… even the top of the feet haha I think the guys that rent the bikes have some sort of connection with the shops that sell antiseptics, tapes, bandaids and all this stuff hahahah

We had some friends that were fancying living on the edge and decided rent a a bike… a couple from England and two friends from Germany… the couple ended up few times inside the rice fields hahaha the best part was listening to their story…

Ben was driving and told us that the front wheel was acting weird… he was turning to the left and the thing to the right… the bikes are pretty stubborn hahaha… so he tried to avoid and got straight to the rice field…. as soon as he pushed the bike back to the road… Laura told him: “Let me drive cuz you clearly dont know how to drive the bike…” … He handled the bike and she tried to turn right and the bike went left… just because she wanted to check the other side of the rice field… not because the bike was mean!! hahahahaha In the end they pushed the bike back to the guy who rented and got their money back!! hahaha

Fortunately, they didn’t get hurt… kinda mud wet and with feel cereals on their pockets hahaha

On the other hand… Oscar and Ehmer didn’t have the same luck… they were the germans on the other evil bike… on day we met them coming back from the waterfall and when they were heading there we could foresee that the future (or the bike) wasn’t holding something good for them…. as they departed in an uncontrollable zig-zag towards the waterfall…. Later that day we heard they got in an accident…. nothing too serious but India will be remembered through all the scartissues hahaha

Climbing-wise… I know.. I haven’t been writing much about the climbing… we keep doing pretty often and having fun and all!! =)

…as the time passes we’ve been trying harder problems… working on our limits and trying to raise the level… its enjoyable and I´m having great fun… but working the whole time on your limits sometimes means… no sends for a while… which is quite hard… The good thing is that Alfonso came to visit us and we had awesome sessions together… sweet rest days… and loads of skin layers from our fingertips vanishing hahaha

I actually don’t know what disappeared faster… the weeks he was here or my skin hahaha Well… when we are having good times the clock seems to go into fast forward mode right?! haha

After that I had to take few days resting as I was working on 7bs and 7cs constantly… sadly got close to get some but didn’t finish anything for at least 3 weeks hahaha how the south africans would say: Shame!! hahaha

I, in fact tried to get going and went to another session with Fabi, to try the Goan Corner… one of the classics here…. woke up at 5:30… we were there around 6… and by the time the sun rises we have few minutes to try before it gets too hot… haha I only needed 3 tries to understand that I should not go for it hahaha I wasn’t having fun… my body wasn’t working well… my mind and body were completely disconnected and everything was feeling forced…. I spotted and went home rest haha

I had never thought that I would say that but I was looking forward to not climb for a while and recover… mainly my stated of psycheness hahahaha

Well… didn’t take too long too be psyched for climbing again… 3 days and I was looking at the columns and finding crimps were normal people see the mass that keep the bricks together hahahaha

Something that I´m loving though is the slackline… I have one and always get some sessions and some tries on rest days… but here there is one in our guest house… so easy… whenever I have time I hop on… and the days I wasnt climbing… the slackline was the activity…. I got awesome seshs and improved incredibly… to certain point that I was having more fun with the slackline than the climbing hahahaha (I said that whispering so no one will hear) hahahaha What an heresy hahahahaha

The thing is that maybe 10 years ago I saw a video called “Gibbon Kids” where they jumped… walked… did loads of mad tricks on the line and I was like: Wow… I wish I could do that… and that…”…. well… after the boost I can get loads of those tricks hahahah awesome jumpy times here hahahahahaha

Don´t worry (chicken curry)…. hahahah I´m back to climbing… had a great sesh these days… got an 7b and 2 new 7as in one morning!! hoooooray!!! =) Plus…. at the same session we discovered how to make liquid chalk… hahaha I´ll put up the steps in the end of this post hahaha

I forgot to mention something small that happened when Alfonso was here… we almost got busted by the police at the temples hahaha

He wanted to get the same picture as the front cover of the guide book…. Him climbing the egg shaped rock with the temples on the back… so… there we went… he put the shoes on… I got the camera and he ran sneakily towards the boulder… I got all the moves until the police started shouting and whistling telling him to get out of that rock…. it seems that those are holy rocks now…. and 10 years ago they had not reached the sacred lever… thats why it was possible climbing them!! hahahah

I would be the next to get the pics…. well… you know…. spend another nite in a jail for a pics does not sound worthy hahahaha

The guys that wrote the guide book should update that info to save some assess too!! hahahah

Other than that… we didn’t have much adventure…. Stephen and I were watching 127 Hour… but he had not seen that before… so… as it was dinner time and he was about to order a pizza, I asked if he gets sick with blood… he told me not and we got the movie going one…. the first part is great and the pizza was not ready… cuz you know…. murphy´s law…. hahahahah As soon as the guy got the arm stuck the pizza came flaming and smelling scrumptiously…. (spoil alert… actually… the movie is way to old… you should have seen it ages ago!! =) )…. by the time the guy cuts his arms the pizza was already trying to be digested in his stomach… something hard when you see a surgery well played on the screen…. so Stephen stood up and, as the germans on that bike…. departed fast in an uncontrollable zig-zag towards our room hahahaha I tried to go with him but all the stuff were still on the table and he told me to mind it hahaha wasn’t funny cuz he got sick…. actually was funny but fortunately he made it to our room without scratches or diving into the rice fields hahahaha Just kidding…. he is fine!! =)

For the gran finale… the Chalkitiser!!! I was in a great sesh with Esther… enjoying the cool breeze coming through the little cave… was midday or so… not much to do…. started wondering about the sanitiser…. that really dries up the hand…which is exactly the point of the liquid chalk…. so I told her… why not use the sanitiser and than chalk it up for climbing??

When she came with the best idea ever… why not mix the sanitiser with the powder??? hahahaha

That´s it… if you want liquid chalk you simply have to get a bottle of liquid sanitiser… which is pretty much alcohol…. mix with chalk and voilá!! haha Liquid chalk that helps you to get rid of 99.9% of the germs… raise up the level of you climbing… and simultaneously hydrates your hands as it has Aloe Vera!! hahahahah

Reading the post, It could think that it´s a joke… but the thing works and we tested while climbing hahahah give it a shot… the sanitiser costs like 10% the price of the liquid chalk and the powder you probably have…. so…. enjoy the Chalkitiser!! hahahahaha

Cool…. this gets me up to date beasts!!

In few days we will be going to Nepal but before I will send my last project….

Keep sending awesome vibes to the universe and the universe will return it back stronger!! Smile and you´ll get loads of smiley friends in this world!!

Good vibes and talk to you soon!!

Evan
