Interacting With Other Alterhuman/nonhuman/therian/etc Is Actually Rewiring My Brain. I Am Getting Weirder.

to those of you who are moving here from tiktok, from someone whos used both tiktok and tumbr for years...

1. DO NOT censor your posts

dont censor sex, abuse, suicide, dont censor it. we dont have censors like tiktok does, you wont be banned for talking about these things and tagging them properly helps people avoid them (also, we dont have shadowbanning here)

2. we dont really have an algorithm

you follow who you follow, and you see posts from who you follow or what you search. the 'for you page' is basically useless here. this also brings me to my next two points

3. dont crosstag

we get it, on tiktok you have to crosstag for reach, but thats not really a thing here. just tag your posts properly (also posters often leave more info about the post in the tags!! and when you reblog stuff you can leave your own notes in the tags, kind of like the old "repost comments" on tiktok)

4. dont expect to go viral/be famous

"viral" isnt really a thing on here (at least not for the average blogger). your posts will probably get 2-10 likes and you wont get nearly as many followers than on tiktok. thats just how tumblr is

5. blocking is your best friend

tiktok is VERY discussion based, and while tumblr is much more discussion based than other social medias, its still not a good place for ragebait/discourse. dont interact, itll make your experience worse in the end, just block and move on

6. you cant go into someone elses house and start rearranging their furniture

this is tumblr, not tiktok. dont diss old tumblr users for how they use the site or try to change them, thats like going into someone elses house and trying to rearrange their furniture. we've been here longer and we're familiar with the site and its culture, either find your niche, adapt, or find a different app

lol who would want this? PLZ PLZ PLZ PLZ PLZ PLZ LORD I NEED IT YES!!

jealousy is so attractive sometimes, because, yes. hold me a bit tighter when someone glances at me. squeeze my hand if someone's staring. glare daggers at someone if they come up to talk to me. so cute that you love me and need me so much!!

Who wouldn’t want to sit with a baby crocodile for a bit?

I hate it when your parents are like “I know you better than you know yourself!” Like no you don’t

like to charge, reblog to cast <3

ur so intriguing. i wish i was your doll <3

My doll, hm? Would we have our own tea parties, could i spoil you with gifts and love? Could i doll you up and look at you in adoration? I mean after all, a gorgeous doll deserves the best owner.

Im so unmotivated to go to classes this week bc I’m nesting but can’t nest. What is going on??? I need to bring more blankets next semester
