This used to be my writing-tumblr and other stuff was @neitherbluenorgreen but now I use each randomly for random stuff and thus confuse everybody even more. It honestly depends on which device I use, there's little thinking going into any of this.
Feminist, Pro-Choice, Queer, Atheist, Socialist. A lot of posts are 18+, don't come crying if you feel offended.
My stories can be found at AO3, beware the warnings.
no multi option, agonize and choose, no results option, pick one to find out or scroll onward
the number of y'all in the notes mentioning how good the choices are/how hard it is to choose got me preening like "i am going to get a good grade in neurodivergent/disabled, a thing that is both normal to want and possible to achieve 😌"
I liked a lot of the others, but as soon as I saw the brush/comb that was an instant yes. Curly hair is so fucking hard to maintain. One of my hardest self-care tasks, honestly, especially since I prefer to keep it long.

The perspective made me think this was a VERY fancy dog house
It's my 10 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳
Ten years here on Tumblr,
Posting like a pro ( didn't say pro what).
Never trying to leave this site,
Because nobody gets to go (MW HAHAHAHA).
Hating all the changes,
Loving all my friends.( Hi there mutuals).
Knowing they will have to drag me off here,
At the very bitter end.
thanks for all the fun from Ladyoftheteaandblood Oscar and the daughter on the side.

Hiddleston? @neither-blue-nor-green
There are currently ~2300 works in AO3 tagged with "Created Using Generative AI"
I'll be upfront with my opinion, which mirrors my opinion in regards to my field: using AI will only hasten your own obsolescence. The point of fanfiction is not to crank out fics, but rather to enjoy the hobby and communities of writing and fandom.
Yeah sorry. The moment I see AI is involved I’m just “Skip-“ I’m here to read works. Not shovelware

Mom and dad
there are so many posts about ~tumblr is so broken, you can’t find any post on your own blog, it’s impossible, bluhrblub~
I am here to tell you otherwise! it is in fact INCREDIBLY easy to find a post on a blog if you’re on desktop/browser and you know what you’re doing:
the tag system on desktop tumblr is GENUINELY amazing for searching within a specific blog!
caveat: this assumes a person HAS a desktop theme (or “custom theme”) enabled. a “custom theme” is url.tumblr.com, as opposed to tumblr.com/url. I’ve heard you have to opt-into the former now, when it used to be the default, so not everyone HAS a custom theme where you can use all those neat url tricks.
if the person doesn’t have a “custom theme” enabled, you’re beholden to the search bar. still, I’ve found the search bar on tumblr.com/url is WAY more reliable than search on mobile. for starters, it tends to bring posts up in a sensible order, instead of dredging up random posts from 2013 before anything else
if you’re on mobile, I’m sorry. godspeed and good luck finding anything. (my one tip is that if you’re able to click ON a tag rather than go through the search bar, you’ll have better luck. if your mutual has recently reblogged a post tagged #croissant, you can click #croissant and it’ll bring up everything tagged #croissant just like /tagged/croissant. but if there’s no readily available tag to click on, you have to rely on the mobile search bar and its weird bizarre whims)
url.tumblr.com/tagged/croissant/chrono will bring up EVERY post on the blog tagged with the exact phrase #croissant, but it will show them in reverse order with the oldest first
I’ve been here since 2016 and I didn’t realize this.
Time to go deep diving into my tags!
I suspect it was a previous version of this post which taught me about /chrono which I have found invaluable.
/archive/tagged/ is also probably more useful than I realize but I don’t remember to try it very often
i must not get takeout. takeout is the wallet-killer. takeout is the little-death that brings total obliteration. i will face the kitchen, fridge, and pantry. i will make choices about what to cook and then execute them. when hunger is gone there will be nothing. only i will remain.
Ok, question. Why not use the For You page at that point?
Because it sucks
boi no. go back while you still can. a good chunk of my answers are in the quads
It's silly, but I envy people who know the feeling of "I want my mummy". As a kid I only every remember hearing "it's not that bad, don't cry", "big girls don't cry" or "hush"
It was meant in a loving way, but it wasn't solace.
It's my 10 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳
What?! No way!!! Mine was yesterday!!!! Congrats, almost-tumblr-twin!!!
The old school lack of transparency on tumblr is amazing because you assume the people you follow must all be equivalent to you and then you see someone write “I brought my youngest to college today” and someone else write “my mom wouldn’t let me listen to Ariana Grande when I was a kid” and then your head explodes
and we need that! keeps us humble.
Then I'm just like WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU’RE AN ADULT
It goes the other way, too, because WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU'RE A CHILD?!!
I'm 16, that's like, barely a child
I'm in my 30s. You are baby
I'm older than both of you in a trenchcoat.
honestly one of the best things we can do for ourselves is realize that people of different ages than us can still be the same kind of person as us. it's humbling and it gives everyone involved a sense of continuity, and it busts those stupid generational stereotypes media is so fond of.
Things like grouping ppl in categories (Gen x VS gen α, neurotypical vs neurodivergent, tall vs smol) should help as a shorthand to gauge where ppl are coming from. It too often is used to make a us vs them distinction. The year I was born shaped me, but it doesn't determine me.
