Tumblr's Taglist Change!

From @whumpsday, who had to turn off reblogs:

heads up everybody who uses taglists: tumblr's made a change where you can only tag 5 people per line of text. so if you have a taglist like this: @persononeee @persontwoo @personthreee @personfourr @personfivee @personsixx @personsevenn\ the last two people won't be tagged at all! in order to make sure everybody gets a notification, you can do it like this: @persononeee @persontwoo @personthreee @personfourr @personfivee @personsixx @personsevenn remember to check your taglist after posting, preferably on the mobile app, where the difference between tagged and untagged users will be visually obvious.

Feel free to use this to boost it everywhere; this blog already gets heavy notifications.

no. authors are like squids and can only be understood through spirited but ultimately futile combat

Before you post, think:

Is it groovy

Is it smashing, baby

Is it shagedelic

Does it give you mojo

Does it make others randy

I am a WHORE for “the love is requited, they’re both just idiots”
