#someone’s gonna unfollow me for this one

[marimbles]

the agony of enjoying MULTIPLE THINGS AT ONCE. How do people do it….

#part of me is like. ok is it actually the best move to just have separate sideblogs for every interest #cause I always feel weird and insecure abt being a multifandom blog. For some reason #I’m like aaa I’ll annoy people if I post things they’re not interested in! :( they’ll be disappointed in or frustrated in me! #and then the evil (read:normal) Kermit side of me is like girl it’s not that serious #you are not important enough for ppl to be worked up about your blogging habits lmao #if they’re annoyed they unfollow. swell. neato. #u can trust people to curate their own online experience. It’s not your job to post what they want you just do what you want. on ur own blog #do u follow #Sméagol me: yes ma’am #(I mentally switched to gollum instead of Kermit btw) #gollum me: it’s normal to like more than one thing. good even. and you will go through phases anyway #that’s life silly. You’ll have different moods at different times. and maybe completely different interests in the future #are you gonna make a new blog every time you enjoy something. #your interest are fluid but your identity is rooted in something beyond them. Right #you can just be a person who’s always changing but is also essentially the same. that’s humanity hun. do you understand #Sméagol me: yes #gollum: good #Sméagol: but also what if it’s hard to be friends with someone who has 3–4 interests #gollum: good grief

i realised the "antis" thing and the age-old joy of shipwars is one reason i don't comment on fic as much as i would otherwise - there's this fear that appears that the author will click through to my own Works and see that i have written The Bad Pairing (whichever one that is for that person, which i mostly have no way of knowing) or some trope that enrages them and they'll like. block me and/or reply angrily. as far as i know this has never actually happened to me and yet for some reason i still worry about it.

#the downside of multishipping is that you can end up writing EVERYONE'S NoTP at least once #btw one of the main reason i tag posts on tumblr with the relevant pairings is so people can filter it out if they want to #but like. if i comment on 10 yr old thorki fic will the author get offended by my sylki fics? #and will the sylki writer be angered when they see the thorki ones? #is this because 15 years ago someone on LiveJournal called me an “evil shipper troll” for a comment whose content i remember nothing of? #possibly! #gonna admit the “get followed by someone who has unfollowed me by the time i see the notification” MIGHT be getting to me a bit D: #anyway i'll try to comment more on things and to reblog things. at the risk of being blocked or flamed or whatever.

look, okay. i saw matt’s post abt merch getting majorly scaled back/nixed completely next year and i couldn’t resist! i’m gonna wait for any end-of-year/end-of-merch-store sales to buy anything else, but you know i want that “we are cringe but we are free” tumbler

#tumblrswagstore #tumblr itself #at this point im basically goading ppl to unfollow/block me for supporting the website we all use lol #like if you genuinely think *refusing* to give this website any money is the way to make it survive then we just fundamentally do not agree #if you *want* it to fail that's one thing #but if you--like me--want it to continue #then my friend. it's gotta get money from *someone* #and as we've already learned #it's not gonna be advertisers #it's not gonna be data miners #it's not gonna be shady political psy-op groups #so like??? who else is there my dude??? #anyway #stoked as hell for my cool tumblr blankie

[cosmicsnufkin]

for the record if you ever see me reblogging from a zionist or terf or anyone spewing anything racist or antisemitic or ableist, please just let me know i'm tired of finding out half a year too late

#i dont have the time or energy to fucking go through every single persons blog to make sure i dont reblog from some creep #i've been following this one blog for a while now and rly liking some of their posts about gender and stuff like that #and haven't seen anything suspicious #and now while looking up someone else i saw a post where someone was like #'if i see you reblogging from x or x i immediately distrust you bc they're zionists' #which like ok if you think i know that much about everyone i follow on this social fucking media site it's not like its in their bios #and if they've never reblogged or said anything like it! how the hell are you supposed to know!! #like yeah obvs i unfollowed them now #but god the righteousness #i should be asleep and i'm so pissed that i'm still up bc of this bullshit #for the record this is about genderkoolaid (and vaspider) apparently being zionists #i saw some posts that definitely seemed to point to that being correct #i did also see some that seemed to point to the contrary #but honestly im just gonna unfollow (+block) and avoid #if it turns out not to be true that wont hurt them and now i dont need to worry about it #god i just wanna sleep #ignore me

[deityofhearts]

y’all know how you follow really cool ppl and it’s like “wow you’re so cool I hope you never follow me/we don’t become mutuals because you’d find out i am entirely uncool and unhinged”

#deity dialogue #beaming ‘please don’t scroll through my blog I am very mentally ill on main’ at the cool butch person I follow who has been in my notes #because I’m p sure that one of my beloved mutuals who is already aware I’m a pathetic puddle of a person is mutuals with them #but yeah it’s like. if people I find cool follow me or check out my blog I live in utter fear of them going ‘oh they’re like actually sad a #goodbye forever’ ahdjfjtkt #idk how sad and weird it is to admit that every day I sit here and wonder if a beloved mutual is finally gonna go ‘okay I’ve had enough of #fae’ and unfollow me #this is also why I take a while to follow ppl back because I need to see if I’ve scared ppl off yet #I keep saying I plan to be less unwell on main #rn I’m getting back into tagging my sad posts (divine despair if you don’t know is the tag to block) #tbh I’m also just trying to make this year better but god I am so sad all the time the despair is like Bad #but today was good! so no super sad posts!! #hhhhh what am I even talking abouttttt #anyways shout out to my beloved friends and mutual ilyyy hiii if you read this far wow #actually does anyone read my tags because I talk so much like I’m incapable of shutting up (it’s terminal I fear) #<- the words of someone who is aware they talk so much and hates it and has had people try to silence them (my family also hates that I tal #a lot and use to bribe me into shutting up) #I must shut up now goodbye #see this is why cool people can’t follow me like

lmaoo are you really pulling the fucking misogyny card here as well?? it's creepy for a 30 year old guy to date a 22 year old, there can be a huge power imbalance in a relationship like that... she's my age and i know multiple girls who had their life completely fucked over by a guy that much older than them, men take advantage of women that much younger than them, when they're that young especially..and if it was the other way around it would be just as bad, someone in their early 20s is barely an adult, trust me i know... nothing about pointing that out is misogynistic..i really don't get your opinion on stuff, it's really fucking contradictory a lot of the time and you don't even realize it, everything is misogyny to you

#yep i'm pullin' the misogyny card again! #why oh why are so many things misogynistic gee idk man! must be me! #you're sooooo close to so many points #sit down and have a think #and while you're at it #think about the super simple solution to your problem which is #if you 'really don't get my opinion on stuff' ... well that's a you problem #control your destiny and unfollow #get that post-nut clarity on one of the shittier blogs that'll yank your dog chain and tell you how right you are #women really DO get a good break in the one direction universe! #it's so fair to them! they deserve every ounce of shit they get! #something something dog whistle power imbalance etc etc! #i don't understand how someone who's 22 is an adult! #and i'll say with my whole chest that this is a stunt and she's a beard! #but instead of doing anything about it in terms of the man hiring her! #i'm gonna make it that she's too young and stupid to figure it out! #because i too am and/or have been young and stupid! #bb this isn't the place for you but believe me there are so many...god bless and i hope you enjoy your same dumb thoughts projected back #god i wish this shitty bathroom picture was in sharper focus #that's my cross to bear i suppose

[aeide-thea]

feeling just. extremely weary and sad abt people who imo are both wrong and mean in their analysis of oppressive dynamics. also at some level laughing at myself that this is legitimately what's gotten me down. well. also global warming and microplastics.

anyway. not gonna get into specifics bc some of you agree with them, lol, but. i guess i just wish we all focused a little more on staying in our own lanes and articulating our pain in its own context instead of jumping so fucking fast to framing suffering as a zero-sum game and using our own to justify dismissing other people's by comparison.

#i just feel like. for any axis i'm marginalized along #i have zero desire to look at other people and police whether they're less marginalized than me #or decide that people who *are* less marginalized along that axis must therefore have zero ~valid~ pain or difficulty #and it's totally chill for me to talk about them without any empathy #people are almost always dealing with something difficult & anyway i think it's much more useful to discuss the impact of specific behavior #than it is for me to start making sweeping dismissive claims abt someone's identity #or abt more of their experience than i'm actually privy to #that's vague and incoherent bc i'm conflating a bunch of different things that have rubbed me the wrong way recently but like #idk. we're all so fucking traumatized and suspicious and vicious. extremely not healing as an environment and makes me real sad. #like what happened to being careful with one another so we can be powerful as a coalition #anyway. tbd maybe it's just like. you think you're gonna escape yr cisheteronormative nuclear family and Find Community #and then you realize yr cripplingly fucked up and fail to achieve escape velocity and yr ''''community'''' is a bed of pustulent cacti #anyway. time to do some more unfollowing maybe bc a lot of you ARE sweethearts i'm just feeling bruised by some specific discourse

[variousqueerthings]

obsessively detailed DNIs and lack of good faith reading of strangers' words and discussing the rights to exclude xyz for being too weird for your (public) space and this person reblogged a post from a person who follows a person who follows a person who's suspect and righteous anger over any and every misstep of performance and waiting to catch people out and complete lack of trust and...

are you guys... happy?

do you have people around you that form a community? people who aren't carbon copies of yourself or online yes men? do you know people who aren't your age/gender/race/ethnicity/body/brain/don't have the same financial background, educational story, etc?

not all of these all at once all at the same time, but do you go outside your head, is what I mean?

do you remember that other people are people? have you had the opportunity to train yourself to have grace for the fact that everyone has faults and blindspots and perspectives that come from a life led differently, and that to hear and take in those differences make you richer, more understanding, less shut off?

are you able to discuss things while understanding that there is a middle ground? do you think anger and despair are the only emotions worth accessing in order to be a "good" person?

do you have people around you that aren't like you?

are you happy?

#happy pride #idk im preaching to the choir here im sure #but over the last year ive been trying to follow people in communities that i am a part of and/or want to support #and it seems like they're 1. online all the time 2. angry in ways that lead nowhere 3. quite young? #and im thinking back to me 10 years ago and i was SO angry and so isolated and so terrified of other people #and it wasnt as bad to be online then as it is now in terms of You Have To Prove Yourself Worthy And Flagellate Constantly #ive had to unfollow practically every one of those blogs and not because i dont feel warm towards the people who run them #but it's not activism and it's not good for you #also i have looked at exactly 2 dnis out of interest and i understood like... half the words/abbreviations #they're really not a useful tool and they don't appear to be for anyone but a small crowd who understand them anyway? #and even then i think they're more for people who understand and DO agree than those who don't who Will Not Care #anyway..... wheres that post about *this pride get out of your head* yes! #also idk if this needs to be said but im not saying *talk to a violent extremist who wants you dead today* #(and if you believe that then see the bit about *lack of good faith reading*) #also tbh i did one time reach out to someone and go *hey this post is deeeeply dogwhistly* but tbh that was more about like #*i think ace people are gonna look at that post and literally read it as hate it's that surface level #and you probably don't want that reaction* #but checking back and back and back on post origins idk... i think we're using dogwhistles a little too liberally sometimes

[bucketofchum]

In the mood to unfollow some unnecessarily negative mutuals

#ive decided just to unfollow or mute and move on #like look its cool that you have nice art and all #but if youre gonna unnecessarily stir up some bullshit #boy bye #im so tired #i have unfollowed for less #context: someone was insisting on using a potentially racially charged word #might not be but still weird that they are so insistent on it #like when there is a perfectly fine alternative word that literally everyone uses #and i was like well its a weird hill to die on - #insisting on using this word that basically no one uses and has uncomfortably racial connotations even if its not racist #and they replied 'youre the one dying' so i was like WHOA OKAY WELP. GOODBYE THEN. #like I DO NOT NEED THIS ENERGY FUCK OFF #white French people insisting on using uncomfortable American slang that might be racialised is SO weird to me

[omarfor-orchestra]

So now I need to figure out what caused this mess uh

#was it the pills #the pms #the fact that I haven't seen my therapist in almost a month and will have to wait another one #the fact that i haven't seen someone outside my family and therapist in something like 3 months #maybe more #the fact that when the only irl friend i thought i had (which I'm starting to dubt) told me after i stupid joke that i do have friends #i ghosted her bc otherwise i would have told her to fuck off bc if i had friends I wouldn't have had to be alone in my house when in #so much pain I couldn't move from the bad and she knew it she knew I couldn't walk and still said 'oh you can come to my house' how???????? #despite me asking her twice to come #and I'm 23 years old and I'm so alone it hurts and I can't go out even if i were invited and the only thing helping me right now #are literally drugs which let me tell yall is a low point even if they're medically prescripted #and I'm losing my mind because I'm 3 exams away from my graduation and everyday i feel like giving up #and I've started counting cals again because I'm scared I'm gonna gain too much weight #and I don't know how I'll handle the operation and the follow up and I'm fucking terrified #I'm so sorry if you all are reading this but I'm truly feeling hopeless and so so useless and alone and the self hating is getting stronger #I'm sorry if i bring negativity in your dash I won't blame you for unfollowing i can just try to promise it won't always be like this #i hope at least #god i don't even know what i wrote

[sanstropfremir]

Acting all wise and spewing random words, I see 💀

i'd show you photos of my bachelor's degree AND my master's degree, but i like maintaining the illusion that i'm a talking eel

#literally what was the point of sending this lmao #you're the one reading through literally thousands of words at this point of someone else's opinions #if you don't like it just leave none of the other ppl who unfollowed me the last few days bothered with doing this #are you offended that i don't like your faves??? #that i have critical measured opinions based on my own observations and experience working in similar industries??? #awwwwwwwww poor little baby what is it like with such low critical thinking skills #text #answers #also none of my posts recent posts are tagged so idk how you found me other than you were following me already. in which case: #this is doubly your own fault! suck it up princess! #gonna keep writing my own opinions on my own blog now byeee 👋👋👋

[itzrayla]

No one gives me any attention (unless you're in one particular server- you're the only real ones) I see how it is you all fucking hate me and want me dead.

#If I vanished from your dash you wouldn't even notice SMH #You all are like my theater classmates if I fell asleep in the booth you wouldn't notice my bags or that I didn't leave class #If I were in the booth with you when I fell asleep you'd walk out without leaving me #If I had to stay behind at competition instead of buying food none of you would offer to buy me shit #The those of you who didn't leave to get food would literally abandon me at the meaning most closely related to MY fucking job #ALL OF THIS HAS HAPPENED BEFORE I fucking haaatteee being forgotten and not getting attention and being uncared for #If I made a post saying I was gonna KMS then stopped posted for a week of even deactivated you'd forget me in 5 minutes #Fake ass bitches the lot of you each one of you (minus the server people because at least SOMEONE cares) #You all can only pretend to care for the 5 seconds it takes to send an ask or reply to a post after I have to literally BEG for attention #And this isn't about the April Fool's post getting no reaction this is just a common fucking trend with all of you #Like most of you might as well unfollow and block me I'd rather my follower count accurate reflect how many people care so much as notice m

[does-this-look-warriors-to-you]

apparently there's a community of people who claim squirrelflight was abusive to brambleclaw????

#i guarantee you they're entirely brambleclaw defenders #it's mostly on tiktok #of course it is #these people argue that people only thought that bramble was abusive because moonkitti made a video about it #and yeah i think the idea became more prevalent for that reason but also... isn't moon an abuse survivor? #i'm gonna believe them over some 14 year old with a superiority complex #if moon hadn't talked about it someone would have #i highly doubt they were the first person to talk about it #they just popularised the idea because they're well known in the fandom (which isn't inherently a bad thing) #these people don't even provide evidence either #one of them made a post that was like 'people say bramble is the abusive one but that's not true' #and the only rebuttal provided was that squilf speaks out against him at gatherings #you know #the reason he chose her as deputy in the first place #at least moonkitti used textual fucking evidence #didn't even disprove the very valid points about bramble being abusive #are these people too young to have learned that? aka too young to have taken a middle school english class? #so in conclusion if you don't think brambleclaw was/is abusive unfollow and block me pls <3 #don't bring that discourse here though #ik i'm talking about it but i'm just sharing my thoughts not trying to start a discussion #warriors #warrior cats #wc #squirrelflight #squirrelstar #bramblestar #brambleclaw #shipping discourse

[jestersonic]

hey i’m really sorry because you were a really cool mutual but for the record i have to unfollow you because the purple creature in your profile picture (whatever she’s from) (or they sorry i don’t want to assume the beast’s pronouns) (i love all genders) looks almost exactly like my ex girlfriend’s fursona and i tried to ignore that for a while because i’m not the kind of pussy who would unfollow someone because their creature looks like my ex’s fursona but get this: she drew her fursona hitting me (human) (i’m not a furry) (nothing against them) (i love all genders) with a car (honda civic) and sent it to me from a burner account on toyhouse. so needless to say i can’t keep doing this. i’m gonna miss your posts though you were a real one i loved when you would say shit like “it’s (the f slur) wednesday post knuckles”

!??!?!??!?!?!?

edit bc im changing my icon eventually it was this at the time the ask was sent:

#sorry for the torment dude. putting ypu in the fave tag though #fave #setup...

[idletransgenderfication]

i still follow many ex-mutuals tbh. i don't really care, most of my mutuals aren't actually my friends, so i don't view it as like some big betrayal or something. i'm weird and can be very off-putting at times, i know this. i do notice when someone who used to follow me back is still regularly posting but hasn't been in my activity page for months/years, but i don't judge. none of the people who have broken mutuals with me have written me callouts or sent me hate mail when unfollowing, so i can't complain. like, it's whatever man. it's fine if you realize you don't really like me or even actively find me obnoxious, just don't be a dick about it & i'll still be cool with you 👍

#there's even been one instance where i was fucking glad someone broke mutuals first bc they were such a drama magnet lmao #tbf i was always gonna break mutuals w/ them eventually bc they were stressing me out #i was just glad they ended up doing it first so i had an excuse to unfollow too LOL #animal.txt

#every time I vent or get unhinged and I check my computer count and it's still the same I get very disappointed #someone's gonna have to take one for the team and unfollow me
