It's a nerd/fandom blog. This place used to have quality content years ago, but it's mostly videogames and memes at this point.

Seeing more and more blogs without a [username].tumblr.com site which means you can only view their blogs in tumblr.com/[username] mode, and I realized just the other day that nowadays you have to manually go to your blog settings and toggle the “enable custom theme” switch to have a browser site activated.

I REALLY recommend activating this! Especially if you’re an artist or if you have a themed blog, like if you reblog fanart for a specific fandom or ship. First and foremostly you can change the whole theme if you want to, you can really just go wild with building your personal aesthetic for your page.

But what I think is even more important, is that you NEED to “enable custom theme” to enable access to your archive! The link [username].tumblr.com/archive doesn’t work if you don’t have this enabled!

If you post art or archive fanart or fandom content of any kind, letting people access your archive makes it so much easier for people (and yourself) to find older art on your blog or to look for something you drew a while ago that they remember loving and want to look at again.

We talk lots about how on Tumblr old art gets to circulate, and the archive is part of how that works. It’s a really useful tool in finding good content that isn’t brand new. And especially if you are good at tagging, it’s very easy to filter the archive to find ship content or meta or fics, whatever you want to find.

Please help my girlfriend escape abuse and not be homeless

My girlfriend, Juniper (she/her), is in a really bad situation and is considering becoming homeless just to get away from it, because none of the resources she reached out to are willing or able to help her. She's being abused by her family and threatened with homelessness by them either way, and I and Origin really don't want to see her on the streets if we can help it.

Ideally, I'd like to set her up with a living situation before the end of the year, bc G-d knows it's gonna be cold soon. Juni is perfectly willing to find a job and/or get on benefits, but is currently unable to because of the fact her family refuses to give her rides/help her with finding a job. Also, she's the sweetest girl on Earth and deserves the best, and I just want her to be happy.

She's allowing me to give out her Discord, but please ask me for it because I'd at least like to vet the people I send her way. If you'd like to help but can only send money, here's her paypal:

paypal.me/melancholyjosh (ignore the dead name!)

10/31/2022 Update

Juni is currently safe but I doubt it'll last too long. Her mother tried calling the cops but they said to write an eviction notice before calling them again. If you're in the Columbus, Ohio area, she still needs help escaping!

She only has 25 dollars to her name. Not a single person has approached me about taking her in. Please help her.

Among puritan Christians in the 1840s, many believed that material disease was due to material sin. You do bad things and you get sick.

This eventually morphed into the idea that spiritual disease is therefore caused by spiritual sin. I.e. you think bad things, you go insane.

John Harvey Kellogg was an innovator. He sort of blended the two, popularizing a new category; the physiological sin. Eating unhealthy, disrupting the natural balance of the body, is a sin against the natural order of the body as God ordained it, and he punishes us with chronic illness.

His followers were banned from:

Sex, masturbation, all meat, salt, grease, fat, dance, gambling, coffee, tea, alcohol, or warm water of any kind.

why warm water????

Excites the body. JHK considered man's natural state to be an unfeeling resting neutrality. All biological excitement was a sin.

Yes. The cereal guy. As in Kellogg's Cereal. That guy.

.... That explains the whole "bland cereal means no sex" idea, to be fair.

Actually incorrect!!!!! His BROTHER was the Kellogg cereal guy - literally took the shitty bland-ass flakes he made with John before John started his own sanitarium (think of the old equivalent of a detox/cleanse luxury spa) and put sugar on them, and thus “Frosted Flakes” were born!!

That's not correct. Both of them worked at the Battle Creek Sanitarium, which was established in 1866.

John Harvey Kellogg invented Corn Flakes, William Kieth Kellogg was a factory owner and designed the factory process to mass-produce them, and thus held the patent. In 1897 they started the Sanitary Food Corporation.

W.K. Kellogg knew the cereal would be more marketable if they put sugar in it. J.H. Kellogg thought that was a sin. The two had a falling out in 1906 over this, and W.K. split to form the Battle Creek Toasted Corn Flake Company, which later became the Kellogg Company.

Oh thank you for the corrected info!!!

I didn't read two whole biographies on this enema obsessed weirdo for people to be Slightly Wrong On The Internet About Him.

please @normal-horoscopes expand on that enema thing. u can’t just mention that and not tell us.

John Harvey Kellogg was obsessed with enemas. He was an early proponent of studying gut bacteria. He even worked at the Pasteur Laboratory in Paris for a while.

In 1936, he filed a petition for his invention of improvements to an "irrigating apparatus particularly adaptable for colonic irrigating."

Basically, he invented a chair that would pump water up your ass at over a gallon a minute, often followed by a half-pint of yogurt.

The irrigator was INCREDIBLY popular, notable people who used the irrigator were the likes of: Amelia Airhart, George Bernard Shaw, J.C. Penny, President William Howard Taft, Thomas Edison, and C.W. Post.

CT I know you didn’t just say that the guy who was afraid of masturbation and warm water made a chair that blasted yogurt up your ass please say sike

He also patented several designs for chastity cages.

If you’re puritanical enough you just loop back around to a freak.

Quick correction on this post: I stated that The Irrigator could pump water up an ass at a gallon a minute. This is inaccurate. It could pump water up an ass at more than four gallons per minute, faster than most industrial power washers.
