New blog! @pleasantickles

I’ve just had this one for a while and the email I signed up with I can’t get into anymore. It’s just easier to start fresh I think.

I won’t delete this blog! I’m probably gonna stay logged in it on my phone, which is how I’m doing this now.

Anyhow, see you on the new blog if you decide to refollow me! ✌🏻💞

So... I found this and now it keeps coming to mind. You hear about "life-changing writing advice" all the time and usually its really not—but honestly this is it man.

I'm going to try it.

super long t-word trope/prompt list~! >/////<

some of the following tropes/prompts are from other lists, such as these: x, x, x, x, x

“how much does this tickle from 1 to 10?”

“wait! wait! i didn’t have enough time to prepare!”

“aww, you’re blushing!”

“that’s not fair! you’re cheating!”

“you asked for it…”

“are you…? oh my god. you are.”

“say it!”

“can you stop laughing? i’m trying to talk to you. how rude!”

“you have such a cute laugh!”

“you’re doing that on purpose!”

“…doing what on purpose?”

“come on, let me see that smile!”

“you’re usually so tough…”

“it’s too embarassing!”

“what did you just say to me?”

“i’m gonna get you!”

“apologize!”

“i’m gonna count down from 10.”

“i’ll never talk to you ever again.”

“can you… do the thing?”

“i know other ways to make you talk…”

“your hands are freezing!”

“i thought that you said you weren’t ticklish.”

“it’s nothing! just… forget that that happened.”

“you’re being really bold for someone within tickling distance.”

“what’s so funny?”

“wow. you are super ticklish.”

“does this even count as tickling? i’m barely touching you.”

“someone told me your little secret…”

“it’s been forever since i’ve heard that laugh!”

“was that a snort?”

“what’s with the bad mood? i think that may need to be remedied…”

“i am not even touching you yet!”

“i’m not falling for that!”

“how did you know that?!”

“i didn’t tell you to stop…”

“i didn’t hear a ‘stop’…”

“shut up!”

“oh, you’re not ticklish? i remember differently…”

“come on, quit being stubborn and admit it!”

“i’m gonna tickle the sadness out of you!”

��if you laugh, you lose.”

“i didn’t know you snorted when you laughed!”

“…have i ever heard you laugh before?”

“you don’t seem like the ticklish type, is all.”

“this is all super new to me.”

“i think that i like this. can you do it some more?”

“can you show me how to do that?”

“be quiet! other people might be able to hear you, you know!”

“i have no weaknesses.”

“i’m not going to be taken down by something as childish as tickling.”

“not there!”

“you wouldn’t.”

“oh, i would.”

“whoa! i didn’t expect that much of a reaction.”

“this is gonna be fun.”

“hey! this is a serious matter!”

“this is amazing.”

“you’ll never live this down.”

“i’m gonna get you back!”

I’m not a perfectionist, but finding a typo or a grammatical error in my own already-published fic is like stepping on a Lego honestly

[pleasanttickles]

listen I love Pokemon but this person is SO right

[pleasanttickles]

one of my favorite tickle tropes is the cocky character getting knocked down a peg when theyre doing their cocky thing and someone else just grabs their sides and the character performs a 20 meter long jump and everyone else just smirks and the character is begging for mercy in 3 seconds

i used to say “puppypuppy” to call the loma babies when they were really small. for outside playtime, for mealtimes, for snuggles, whatever. now when i say it, it activates some feral part of their brain. this works on all of them btw.

PSA: Back up your blog, check your tumblr e-mail for copyright strikes

Hi everyone, after suddenly losing my account with main blog + sideblogs last week, I would like to share the following warning with y'all. Not to scare you even though it is shitty, but to raise awareness. If this somehow results in me getting kicked off the platform again, so be it lol.

If you post anything fandom* related on your tumblr blog**, whether that's gifs, screenshots, videos, cosplay pics or even fics (?), you may risk getting a copyright strike (up to 3 in 18 months) or even immediate account termination. The chance is still rather small, but just know that it can happen.

*I say fandom in the broad term, so blogs that post about movies and series, anime/manga, games, celebrities, models, sports/olympics, etc. and it goes for gif and fic creators too. Not just accounts that post music or videos for example.

**I say tumblr blog, but this goes for all of the internet ofc. People have been getting this problem on any platform, from insta to etsy, youtube and twitter.

Disclaimer: I am no legal expert, just an unlucky blogger who lost her silly multifandom fic blog after 7+ years.

This will be a bit long and detailed so I proceed under the cut!

What can you do?

...To make sure you don't suddenly lose days, months, and years of content:

CHECK THE EMAIL LINKED TO YOUR TUMBLR. I know a lot of people don't do it, myself included. Tumblr does send warnings (though not always). It wouldn't have changed anything for me because I wouldn't want to appeal - since I don't want to go into this "fair use" discussion for just a fic & editing blog. I personally don't know the chances of retrieving your blog if you protest against the claims, so can't say much about that.

Back up your Tumblr blog if you can. Also save your Tumblr chats with people dear to you if you can. Account termination seems to work differently than deactivation. I was still able to see chats with people who deactivated long ago. But my blog that got terminated has vanished from everyone's DMs and ask boxes à la Thanos snap. I mourn my years of Tumblr chat with my best friend. It was not as if we even considered exporting/copying it just for the memories of the start of our friendship. But now that it's entirely gone, hehe, well. It is sad.

Save URLs and masterposts outside Tumblr. After losing your account, for I thiiink about 24-48hrs (I didn't clock, but it was temporary) you will be able to access it at least temporarily through cachedpages, if you have the URL. It doesn't seem to work for everything, but most of my Tumblr posts I could still see shortly through this site, even after I got wiped off the platform. I did this by googling my tumblr username + certain keywords, and the posts would pop up and give me the URL.

...To prevent getting copyright strikes and losing your account?

Probably nothing - but like I said, I'm not the expert, just the fool who lost her account. The termination e-mail will give you a numbered URL so it's not easy to see which post resulted in the account loss, but for me the keywords were:

-

-

Despite the 7+ years of posts, many followers and a lot of memories, I did not gain anything else from this blog and didn't think it was worth the (legal-) risks and effort to try and get it back. It would require filing an objection against the copyright claims with personal info from home address to name, and consenting to USA legal law stuff.

Even if I don't know the exact details, I'm sure they're not wrong, because whether it's fair or not, most fandom stuff has copyright issues in the end, so I can't protest against the claims with 100% certainty it won't get me in real trouble. Besides, I read about similar cases, lost cases, and admitted defeat right away.

They work with manual reports and most dangerously, bots, who seem to be randomly picking unlucky people to take down their posts and possibly the entire account.

So besides putting an entire halt to fic writing, gif making, video editing and other fandom indulgement, or the inconvenient act of censoring every single word and image, I don't think there is a way to entirely prevent getting targeted.

The one that treated me to the strikes leading to account termination was a certain Mr. Green who seems to have targeted mostly people on Etsy. But apparently now also on Tumblr. More about this I can share here for further information. I also share some other links that can inform you about how far the copyright problem can go. Again, no reason to panic. It's rare and I was unlucky. But it happens.

About Mr. Green, using bots all over the internet to take down fandom related material:

Tumblr post about his attack on fandom.

Long detailed doc from an Etsy user.

Insta post about also loss of Etsy account.

Also Etsy related, but same Mr. Green and his bots taking down something only because it used the NAME of an anime character.

Tweet about him and his company not being officially contracted but getting compensated.

About copyright claims on Tumblr - they are still rare, no panic, I just call it russian roulette and these are all unlucky people like me :')

Post by user @/marilynjeansiims about claims against users who post about Sims, including a petition against it.

Post by user @/happyheidi about Moomin posts facing issues.

Post by user @/hanyusan about olympic related claims.

Example by user @/koov about what a vague copyright warning looks like.

Good news, post by user @/yunghos about getting their account back after filing a counter notice. It seems to be possible.

Post by user @/iamkatehardy about getting a strike for using a gif.

Post by user @/stxrshxpxd about getting their acc terminated for no 100% clear reasons.

Post by user @/tekweela about getting terminated mercilessly because of a reblog.

Post by user @/fromanotherroom-revived about losing their account with similar advice as I write here.

Post by user @/ladyphasma about gifs and US law

Knowing this won't bring lost accounts back, or change the law, I do hope at least you can be better prepared just in case it happens... Better prepared than I was at least.
