How To RSS: 2023 Edition

An updated version of the guide I keep rewriting even though no one asked.

What is RSS?

Really Simple Syndication. Websites generate feeds, you plug the feeds into your feed reader of choice, you get updates as they happen instead of manually checking bookmarks. If you are using an actual podcasting app instead of spotify, you're already using RSS, because that's how podcasts work. In the same way that you can follow someone's blog and have everything they post appear on your dash instead of manually checking their blogs, RSS lets you build a dash for the entire rest of the internet. Assuming they have an RSS feed. You'd be surprised how many of them do and will learn to be annoyed at any that don't.

Picking an RSS Reader

For the purposes of this post I'm assuming you'll be using inoreader.com, because it's what I use and it has a free option and I'm lazy. Inoreader also has Android and iOS apps, so if you interact with the internet entirely through your phone you can still do all this. The only limitations of a free Inoreader account is that there are ads, and you're limited to 150 feeds. That's still a lot of feeds imho. There are a ton of alternatives and you can look into them if you want but I'm not worrying about that here.

It is unbelievably easy to change your mind later and switch to a different RSS reader without losing anything. Do not get hung up with decision paralysis trying to pick The Perfect App like it's a commitment. You can port everything you do in Inoreader to any other app or website in minutes. It's fine.

Subscribing to the Internet

If I weren't lazy I'd go make a new Inoreader account to walk you through that process but here we are, with me not doing that. Once you make an account, it's probably going to suggest some things for you to follow. You can do that if you want, but the real things you care about are the search bar at the top left and the 'add new' button at the bottom of where all your feeds will go.

For most websites, Inoreader can actually automatically detect any RSS feeds, so you don't have to go hunting them down. I'm going to use my own website for this because fuck you that's why.

If you're using the Android or iOS apps, search is hidden under the 'discover' menu item. When you click on the feed, you'll be subscribed! You can also click the 'add new' button, which will give you a bunch of options, but the one you want is 'Feed'.

A lot of the options listed there are locked behind a pro account, I don't know if they even show up if you're on free and I'm not checking. Once you click 'feed' it just takes you to another search bar, so you honestly might as well just use the search bar up top tbqh. 'Add new' is more useful for creating folders to organize all your stuff.

Mastodon, Cohost, and Tumblr accounts all generate RSS feeds automatically, just enter the URL of whoever you want to follow and the feed will get detected. But on Tumblr specifically, username.tumblr.com/rss will give you a feed of everything, while username.tumblr.com/tagged/fanfic/rss (for instance) will get you a feed of nothing but posts tagged 'fanfic'. This is actually a very useful way of following blogs that post way too goddamn much about things you don't care about.

If Inoreader is having trouble detecting a feed, try searching the website for an icon that looks like this:

That's usually where the feed is hiding. Just copy the URL and paste it into Inoreader to subscribe.

Okay But Now What

NOW YOU WAIT

Or don't, there's probably already recent articles your reader has now been populated with.

I don't remember what the default settings are, mine are currently set to only ever show me unread posts in 'magazine view' which is like a list with a little preview I can scroll through, sorted by oldest first. Clicking on an article opens it up in a reader view.

Personally I'm partial to scrolling through and only opening up things that look interesting to me. If I realize it's actually too long for me to read right that minute, I'll hit the 'read later button' to save it. Once I've scrolled through the whole list, I hit the 'mark all as read' button. But that's just how I do things, I'm an inbox zero kinda bitch.

If you really want to make it feel like Tumblr, you'll have to set it to expanded view and newest first.

In this mode scrolling past articles will mark them as read, but if you set it to still show you articles you've already read that probably doesn't matter as much.

By default most RSS feeds will contain previews of articles rather than the full thing in order to prevent scraping, but here's a fun thing: Inoreader has a 'full article' button that will automatically pull through the article text, and which bypasses a surprising number of paywalls.

A major use case for my RSS reader is webcomics. While a lot of them don't actually display the full image inline, and the full article button doesn't really work with these, it's still nice to get the update notification and opening a new tab to read a comic is not that big a deal imho. Keeping up with webcomics this way is so much easier I can't imagine going back to bookmarks.

There are certain YouTube channels I subscribe to via RSS because I don't want to miss any episodes. You can subscribe to podcasts in Inoreader if you want to. Substack has RSS options for every newsletter that's hosted there. Most news websites have had RSS since forever and every Twitter account you ever followed for news was probably actually just reposting from their RSS reader.

Import and Export

Once you have one RSS reader set up, it becomes super easy to try out every RSS reader you can possibly think of because they all use .OPML files. Except maybe Feedly? Seems like they have a special import option for Feedly. Just another reason to not use Feedly, The RSS Reader For Bootlickers. Anyway Inoreader keeps all that under preferences, in Import, Export, Backup.

The full archive is nice to have, but the OPML file is what you want for quick and easy trying out of different readers. Export the file, import it in whatever alternate reader you want to try, and you will automatically be subscribed to all your feeds. It takes, like. Five minutes. I try out new RSS readers all the time to see if I'll like them. Once you switch to RSS you will marvel that you ever used the internet any other way, and also that everyone else has been putting up with websites and apps that use stupid bullshit to keep them from leaving.

The Reddit Blackout, #196, And Being New to Tumblr

okay i've seen a lot of people in the past ~24 hours or so confused by everything going on with Reddit & Tumblr from both sides - people new to tumblr who don't know how to use it, and tumblr users who don't know what's going on with reddit and why many of its users have joined up here i know this isn't really related to my blog but fun fact about me: i was up until recently a very active reddit user and even mod a subreddit, but I've also been on tumblr for about 3 years now on different accounts, so I think I can see pretty well from both sides of this and explain what's going on this post will be split in 2 sections: what happened with reddit (and what #196 means), and a guide for new users

1. What The Hell Is Going On With Reddit?

The thing that's caused all this ruckus is a major change to Reddit's API, which is what Reddit provides to people so they can pull directly from Reddit to make third-party apps or tools.

The change is that Reddit is changing its previously free API to be paid. Which on its own kinda sucks for developers, but it's not unexpected. They need to make money somehow, right?

The problem is that the API pricing is WAY TOO FUCKING EXPENSIVE. The developer of the most popular 3rd party Reddit app, Apollo, says it will cost him $20 million a year to continue running the app as normal.

Essentially, this pricing forces almost everything third-party to shut down, which causes 3 major problems:

Third-party apps cannot keep running, which sucks for normal users because Reddit's official app is awful. It's slow, its video player is a thing of nightmares, it doesn't have many useful features third-party developers have made.

It sucks even more for visually impaired users because they can't use the official Reddit app at all. Reddit's official app does not work with iOS's native text-to-speech function. Third party apps, on the other hand, often do. So Reddit is forcing blind users away.

Third-party moderator tools cannot keep running, which sucks for moderators because many rely on these tools to properly moderate their subreddits. And moderators are often necessary, because without them subreddits get banned and hate speech and even CSA can often run rampant.

So you see why this change is bad.

Reddit users were PISSED.

So over the past week and a half or so, they have been working on organizing a site-wide blackout. The majority of the most active subreddits have now gone private. Some are only doing it for 48 hours, others (such as r/196) are doing it indefinitely.

That's why you can't access most of Reddit right now, and that's why many users have come here.

You're probably still wondering, though - what is this #196?

Well, as you may guess, it's connected to that subreddit r/196 I just mentioned. r/196 is a subreddit which only has one rule: every time you visit, you must post before you leave.

That's it, that's the subreddit.

The thing about r/196 that set it apart from most other subreddits - and what lends the subreddit's users perfectly to Tumblr - is that it was dominated by queer and leftist users.

So now they've come here and set up shop in #196 and r/196 so they can continue their merry little shitposting.

There's a ton of lore related to r/196, actually, but this is already a long tumblr post and quite frankly I cannot be bothered to write about it at the moment.

2. I'm Here From Reddit, What Now?

Hello there, random new user. As a double-citizen of Reddit and Tumblr, let me show you around this place.

First off, there are some other people who are better at explaining that I am who have made some really helpful things. Watch this Strange Aeons video as a guide to Tumblr culture and functionality and read this post which directly compares Reddit and Tumblr.

Assuming you've done that, here's some additional advice of my own:

Do you miss sorting subreddits by top of all time/the year/the month? Well, you can do something very similar with tags! If you go to a tag at the top of the screen you can select top, and then at the dropdown that says "all time" you can select different time periods! Even 6 months, which Reddit hasn't ever had.

Tumblr has a lot of cool customization features! Even outside your icon/banner/bio, you can change you blog colors and on desktop you can have an html theme (which has its own thriving community here). That customization is part of what sets Tumblr apart from everywhere else - I think you'll enjoy playing with it.

Notes will probably confuse you at first. Unlike the different numbers for upvotes and comments, notes combines the total number of likes, reblogs, and replies into the same number.

Outside of organizing your own blog, when making your own posts tags are what help other people find your post. Use them! But don't abuse them, because then people will just block you.

There are three ways of people finding your post: if someone follows you, if someone follows the tag(s) assigned to your post, and if someone is just scrolling through the tag(s) assigned to your post (and also the secret 4th way no one uses, which is finding it on the trending page, but even if people did use it no one will find your post initially that way)

tumblr is no longer The Discourse Website. And unlike what Reddit wants you to believe for some reason, it is very much alive still. Most of the people seeking fights have moved to Twitter (though some have also moved back here again). You will not get any brownie points for being a dipshit like you do on some subreddits.

So there, welcome to the hellsite (affectionate), you'll pick up on all the in-jokes eventually, for now just try not to be a nuisance and soon enough this'll be your new internet home.

───── May

So I decided that I should be making my monthly reading lists to promote some fellow writers even more, even if one person reads a fic from here it would change something, wouldn't it?

(idk if tumblr would let me tag so many writers at once, but the links to fics work so pls check out their profiles too!)

And also if I ever want to reread them it would be easier to find 👀 I'll try my best to make these lists every month ✨️

So here are some lovely fanfics I've read this month, please make sure to give them some love by commenting or reblogging, it means a lot to us writers 🤍

[lindwurmkai]

hey, have you heard that pillowfort has ✨ drafts ✨ now? (as in, the ability to save your posts as drafts.) they're still working on the queue feature (update: it's done!), but drafts are a big step forward!

in case you missed it so far, pillowfort is like a cross between tumblr and dreamwidth/livejournal, with a simplified dashboard reminiscent of old school tumblr and some classic livejournal features such as communities, threaded comments, and the ability to make individual posts followers-only or mutuals-only.

what are communities? basically, central hubs for posts about any subject you want that, unlike hashtags, can be moderated. they may have rules, such as "[subject matter] must be tagged" for example. you can post directly to a community or reblog existing posts to it!

since the site is currently experiencing some financial trouble, i thought i'd help out by spreading the word once again.

edit: the fundraiser was a success! crisis averted! i knew we could do it :D

why you should give pillowfort a chance:

no ads

no venture capitalist funding

no spying on the users

completely free to use except for optional premium features

nsfw is allowed except for sexual depictions of minors. if you're unsure what exactly that means, their tos may help

communities and the privacy controls mentioned above are excellent features

great community, low drama compared to other websites (so far)

the site's features themselves encourage genuine connection and good-faith conversation over endless "discourse"

every blog can automatically be filtered by original posts only or reblogs only

reasons not to join:

if you enjoy algorithmic social media. there is no algorithm at all

if you want to post or look at machine-generated art. they're still finalising the wording and personally i hope some exception will be made for models trained on ethically sourced images, but basically an anti-AI rule is in the works (update: finished!)

if you cannot live without reblog additions (reblogging with comment). all discussions on a pillowfort post take place in the comments section, and only your own followers see your tags. this has its pros and cons for sure! a similar feature to scratch that itch may be implemented in the future, but it will never be exactly like on tumblr.

if you need everything to be an app. the website works fine in a mobile browser and a progressive web app will hopefully be released soon (basically it's like an app in your browser and on mobile these can be added to the homescreen like real apps i think? they have push notifications!), but there's not going to be a native app available through official app stores due to the restrictions of those stores.

other factors to consider:

yes, the userbase is still small. depending on your interests, activity may be very slow. but we can change that! and on the plus side, reblogging your post to a community is a good way to easily get more eyes on it; way more effective than simply adding tags imo

the site culture is a bit different than on tumblr. many people read everything that's been posted since the last time they were online and don't follow more users/communities than they can keep up with. it's still somewhat lacking in shitposts and heavy on "essays" but don't be afraid to post whatever 😅

there are no blog themes like we have them on tumblr as yet, but you can customise your blog's colours and use html/insert links and images in your blog description

likes literally do nothing except to let OP know you enjoyed their post. you can't look at a list of all your likes. beware!

the staff is small and development is slow. some highly anticipated planned features other than the aforementioned queue include: - multi-account management - dashboard filters/reading lists - post bookmarking (since likes don't work that way) but we don't know how soon any of those will be implemented.

there is a user-developed browser extension (well, a userscript) called tassel available that adds additional features much like tumblr's beloved xkit :)

✨ okay, so how do i sign up? ✨

if you're interested but confused by the sign-up process or still under the impression that you need to pay to sign up (false), i'll put some clarifications and invite codes under the read more below. plus a note on donating, premium features, the paypal issue etc.

in a nutshell:

it's free

signing up without an invite code is possible, but you may have to wait a short while - supposedly less than an hour atm. just submit your email to the waitlist

if you don't feel like waiting, you can either use an invite code from an existing user or pay $5 to sign up instantly

every user gets plenty of invite codes and we're all willing to hand them out at the drop of a hat. they're really not hard to come by

some invites to get you started (just click the link):

invite 1 ▪ invite 2 ▪ invite 3 ▪ invite 4 ▪ invite 5

invite 6 ▪ invite 7 ▪ invite 8 ▪ invite 9 ▪ invite 10

invite 11 ▪ invite 12 ▪ invite 13 ▪ invite 14 ▪ invite 15

invite 16 ▪ invite 17 ▪ invite 18 ▪ invite 19 ▪ invite 20

i'll try to periodically check if any have been used and cross those out.

...paypal issue?

ok so paypal doesn't like working with sites that allow nsfw. as a result, you need a credit card in order to donate to pillowfort, buy one of those insta-registration keys, or subscribe to premium features*. i personally happen to have a credit card and would be willing to help out anyone who trusts me enough to send the money to me via paypal, but i realise chances are only my friends will do this.

some users are currently organising various activities for the purpose of letting people who only have paypal contribute to the site's survival. it's not super relevant for new users and won't get you access to premium features, but i thought i'd mention it anyway in case someone loves the concept of the site so much they want to support it immediately. a fundraising community has been created to collect posts of that nature!

*premium features are strictly limited to two categories of things:

fun little extras that no one truly needs

higher image upload limits, because obviously big images take up bandwidth and are therefore a reason for increased costs

you will never need to pay for vital accessibility features or anything of the sort. :)

CHAPTER TWO: INTOXICATING

previous masterlist next

word count: 1.9k

warnings: alcohol, partying, mentions of yeonjun for funzies, jake thinking with his dick even after what just happened so sort of questionable???

a/n: bare with me i’m trying to build the plot a little bit

YOU DIDN’T KNOW how you ended up back at the frat house. Truly, the party was in full swing and after dealing with the encounter that you did, it would've made the most sense to go home and cry it all out, maybe eat some ice cream for dinner and watch a few romcoms. But that wasn't the case due to Yunjin sending you a text saying how she wouldn't be coming home for the night, the date seemingly going well and you didn't have it in you to ruin her night by telling her of yours.

Thus, uncomfortable with being left alone, you opted to go the other route and surround yourself with as many people as possible. Though, the boys hadn't wandered far, keeping you in sight at all times and Jay particularly staying by your side no matter how many times you told him to still enjoy himself knowing how much of a social butterfly he was a majority of the time. Your work uniform was disregarded in his room, changed into a spare pair of flare jeans and lacy top to fit in with the party, courtesy of the few clubbing nights you went to with him and ended up spending the night, leaving your clothes in his dirty laundry after stealing large hoodies and sweats.

All bad things could be washed away with alcohol, or so they said. Thus, you were on your fourth round of shots in the last 30 minutes with a random group who made their way in the kitchen, never one to have been a lightweight but typically better at timing your drinking. Jay was growing particularly antsy by your actions, knowing you were acting out of the need to forget but he didn't want to let you drink irresponsibly.

"Why don't you slow down a bit, yeah teeny?" Jay asks, leaned close to your ear for you to hear over the loud blaring of music. Attempting to take away the can of Twisted Tea, something you typically hated by the taste but tonight didn't seem to care, while you pull it back with a pointed look.

"I'm fine," You emphasize, words clear and steady, the alcohol not hitting you yet much to your relief. Glancing around, you make eye contact with the umpteenth girl who had been shooting daggers your way for keeping Jay occupied thus far. "If you don't go away I'm gonna end up getting jumped tonight by your fangirls," You add with a small snort.

Jay followed your gaze, turning to the girl who's face morphed from a glare into a sickenly sweet smile as she waved at him with a bite of her lip, attempting to be seductive but he merely snorts at the gesture. "Pretty sure she got chlamydia from a dude in the drama department,"

You scrunched up your nose, finding the information one you didn't need to know. "At least you know better than to fuck anyone that offers," Taking a long sip of your drink once more, the slight burn in your throat becoming easier to bare. "Alright, I'm gonna go dance. You go do anything else,"Jay shakes his head almost immediately causing you to send him a bored look. "I'm fine dude, honest. You need to stop worrying so much. Nothing actually happened,"

"You're not in the right headspace," He protests but you let out a small snort.

"Jesus, dude, you act like an overprotective brother,"

"I am!" Jay defends while you shake your head.

"We're not even related!" You shoot back but his jaw drops in offense.

"We were born a week apart, our moms have been friends since high school. We're basically twins, I know you better than yourself," He lists off, deeply concerned by the way you were disregarding your twins in another life theory that your families always joked of since you were young.

"I'm definitely not your twin, you know why?" You start, standing up from the kitchen island with a small smirk playing at your lips. Your head began to feel fuzzy, the start of your buzz coming and the tension from earlier leaving you slowly but surely. "I'm hotter," You finish, a cocky look playing at your features while Jay rolls his eyes.

"Right, and which one of us gets laid?"

"Hey!" You hiss, waggling a finger in his direction. "I don't hook up by choice. Y'all are nasty,"

"And because you're a hermit who doesn't see the light of day," He snickers causing you to narrow your eyes at him.

Decidedly having enough of the banter, you merely spin on the heels of your feet. "Bye Jay!" You call over your shoulder making your way toward the living room which was lively and loud, body's meshed together and dancing to whatever song that was blaring through the speakers that sounded through the house.

Jay let out a sigh of defeat, pulling out his phone to do a headcount of where everyone was. Thankfully, Heeseung and Jake were in the general area you were, him asking them to keep an eye on you for the time being and getting a thumbs up in response.

Heeseung was on the dance floor, a random girl he never met before tonight swaying herself pressed up against his hips. He looked lively, a few more shots in and just wanting to mess around for the time being. You spotted the tall boy momentarily in the jumble of people who nodded over to you ensuring that you were okay, a nod you returned reassuring him and he took it as enough to go back to his business.

Meanwhile, Jake was on the sidelines, leaned up against the wall as he spotted you the moment you walked over. Far too caught up with the events from earlier, he found it hard to enjoy himself, feeling partially sorry for you but also having an unpleasant pit in his stomach, not necessarily angry but he couldn't exactly pinpoint it.

He continued to sip at the cup of punch Jungwon had conducted up, only drinking it due to how excited the younger boy was of his creation but it was entirely too strong for anyone to stomach more than one cup.

His eyes continued to glance over you, taking in each of your curves that was showed off by the tightness of your jeans. They hugged your ass in the right places, emphasizing the perky shape before beginning to flare out from the knee down. The lacy black top was cropped, showing a good portion of your stomach due to the mid rise of your pants, the deep v-plunge neckline providing more to the imagination in seeing your breast that were pushed up with your bra. The shiny gleam that came off of your naval piercing catching Jake by surprise, having to do a double take to ensure he was seeing things correctly.

You were attractive, that was obvious enough. Although slightly shameful, he couldn't help but rake his eyes over you, thoughts filling his head imagining what it would be like to have you under him, staring up with that daze-y doe eyed look that would make him bend to of any of your desires.

But there was a problem with that. He wasn't the only one with eyes, able to see you and the way you swayed your body to the music, your tiny waist and full thighs that he wanted to die between if so lucky. Jake took note of the few guys who's glances began to wander toward you, even ones who had already claimed their fuck buddies for the night and danced alongside them all while drooling at you who danced by yourself.

He watched as a familiar face make his way toward you. Choi Yeonjun, cool dude to be friends with, horrible guy to date. His reputation preceded him in more ways than one, notorious for stringing girls along week by week and the worst part was they knew of his doings. It was embarrassing how they fought to be his newest toy for the day, a sort of achievement to the girls he's strung along to say they've ticked hooking up with Yeonjun off their list.

Yeah, not happening. Jake didn't know if it was due to him still feeling protective due to you unintentionally calling him for help, or rather the more sinful thoughts that passed through his head moments ago and not wanting to sit and watch you to become a new trophy to a guy like Choi Yeonjun.

Picking himself up from where he was leaned back, Jake took a large swig of his now lukewarm concoction of liquors. Weaving his way through the crowd, he pushes his way to you just as Yeonjun stops in front of your view.

Wrapping an arm around your shoulders, Jake leans close to your ear. "Go along with it," He whispers, catching you by surprise as you were previously engrossed by the music in your own little world, unaware that two of the most lusted over guys at the party were having a silent debate over you at the moment.

Feeling the alcohol now coursing through your bloodstream, you obliged by Jake's words. Continuing on without a word of protest, though you did take the red solo cup from his hand and took a sip from it as you adapted to dancing with him now. Scrunching up your nose upon the drink hitting your tongue, you look at Jake with an incredulous look of disgust in his beverage choices causing him to laugh.

"Jungwon made it," He explains with a small shrug, leaning dangerously close to your face as his breath lightly fanned against your lips. Peering over your shoulder, a small smirk plays at his features seeing as Yeonjun had disappeared from your sight, decidedly giving up on any sort of chance he was attempting to have with you for the night.

"It sucks," You respond back and yet still take another sip, this time longer as you quickly swallow it without time for it to settle on your tongue. Jake's smile turns into one of amusement, watching as you handled the alcohol as if it were nothing before you placed the cup back in his hold. "You either dance with me or go away, your pissing contest with that dude is over now,"

Jake raised a brow. "Pissing contest?"

"You know, marking territory that's not yours," You shoot back, a bored look sent to him as he sheepishly shrugs. "I don't need you being protective like Jay. For one, we barely know each other and two, I'm not that much of an idiot to hook up with Choi Yeonjun no matter how badly I need to get laid. So you either shut up and dance with me or you go away,"

Already rather blunt as it was, the second you got alcohol in your system you tended to be more unfiltered than necessary. Jake finds amusement in your confession but your eyes seem so certain. Though the slight gleam in them as you looked up caused his stomach to do a flip, one that caused him to not think clearly.

Jake didn't respond, instead his arm slips down from your shoulders down to your waist, snaking around and encasing your body against his own. A small smile perks at your lips, sighing blissfully at his lack of commentary and rather allowing you to do as pleased.

"Good choice," You mumble out, breath fanning against his neck as your arms lazily drape from his neck, brining your bodies dangerously close to one another though neither of you minded.

After all, having a little fun with a hot guy never hurt anyone, right?

TUMBLR F1BLR RULES!!!

hi, hello and welcome, we've seen what's been happening to twitter and we welcome you to our little corner.

there are however some things that differ from Twitter to Tumblr and so we have some different rules and behaviour then you might be used to!! I'm gonna try to explain them to you in this post! everything is below the tab!

reblog reblog reblog!!! likes do absolutely nothing, and your blog 'aestetic' in reblogs doesn't really matter unless you're a specific aesthetic blog, reblog are the way people see the content. likes are private! so remember to reblog the stuff you see and like!

DO NOT STEAL GIFS/GRAPHICS I WILL COME AFTER YOU!!! always ask if you can use a gif an then ALWAYS CREDIT properly

shipping is, prevalent. shipping even rpf is ingrained into tumblrs culture on every side of it if you dont like it thats a you thing, you can 'blacklist' tags so just add 'rpf' or the shipnames to them and you should be good!

continuing with that idea, curate your own experience is the most important thing on this site, blocking and blacklisting is normal and very much allowed and welcomed. almost no one is going to change how they do or act around here for one person, just unfollow or blacklist.

but do NOT put long posts or x reader fics, anything in the main tag without putting it under a 'read more' tab people will get annoyed by you

followers dont matter!!! no one CARESSS about basically anything this site is wonderfully anonymous and we can't see how many followers anyone has so genuinely no one gives a shit do whatever you want

remember to trigger tag and unlike twitter spell it out completely! so when a crash happens or is talked about make sure to tag it 'tw crash' even with reblogs!! also remember to tag when you're being negative about a driver as 'anti *insert first name*' never do full name then it will show up in their tags which defeats the purpose of anti tagging.

adding to that, use tags! they're one of the best tumblr features its free to be overenthusiastic and excited in the tags BUT the blog you can reblog it from AND the op can also read those tags so keep that in mind!!

be nice! this shud be a given, be nice, let people do their thing and vibe, just support people and block when u you dont vibe with them! when you do wanna send hate asks do it off anon, dont be shy do it on main

and things arnt 'weird' in the same way they are on twitter, this place has no drivers and no public figures so shame is a lot less existent here, you have to get used to that

and lastly as quoted by my anon 'Don't be afraid to be funny or weird be thirsty on main ship the middle aged man no one cares.'

and most of all. HAVE FUN!!! dont be scared to ask people how things work most of us are very okay with answering 'dumb' questions a lot of us have been here for about a decade we know its a confusing platform please ask away!

Hello all. In case you've been unaware, recently tumblr has begun rolling out a partnership with Midjourney to scrape the entire website and its users' posts for their AI training. This includes peoples art, and probably also writing and photography. Anything you've posted the company may use for training, and you are opted IN by default.

Obviously this blog has been inactive for quite a while now, and no new art has been or will be posted here, but this puts me in a difficult position. I'm not sure exactly what I'm gonna do with this blog from here on. Some people have recommended editing posts to put a glaze filter over old art so that it's unusable, but I have many hundreds of posts, not all of which are tagged, and I'm unsure whether the AI training has already gotten a hold of them or not, making the potential filter useless. Not to mention the reblogs that already exist of the old un-glazed artwork.

I considered deleting everything, maybe even the blog itself, but that idea...sucks. I like the idea and the feeling that though I'm not active, my art is still out in the fandom tags somewhere, and that I have had an effect on the fandoms I was in and shared my art with. And again, the reblogs still exist, so I'm not sure what that would mean in terms of AI scraping. My worry is that deleting my blog would only relinquish any control I do have of what is done with my art.

As it is I'm kind of at a standstill. I was recently thinking over sharing my art again on other blogs, since I do miss being a part of that creative space. But now this change has kind of crushed that idea entirely. All this, plus the extreme transmisogyny apocalypse happening on here in the last month, and the seeming silencing of important movement tags like palestine, it really makes me want to ditch tumblr altogether. I've seen many people considering switching platforms. There's been a lot of markiplier mutuals specifically who have encouraged me to join cohost, I also have seen pillowfort as an option for others. But those platforms are new, kind of janky and will be hard to get used to for me. Plus, idk if I'm using them wrong but there's like...11 posts in each tag that I've seen so far, which kind of kills the feeling of being a part of a big open fan community I really love. Cohost seems like a nice platform, but if only 30-35 people move over, then it's really going to be a moot point. I wanna be where everyone else in the fandom is. I worry that this mass migration will only splinter communities, as we're all going to different places. I don't want to make 500 accounts on different platforms just to stay active and feel aware in the community.

My entire online social life up to this point has basically been on tumblr, I have a lot of blogs with a LOT of memories attached to them, and it would hurt to just drop them and move away.

Overall I'm at a loss. I enjoy sharing my work, my ideas and thoughts, I like being a part of these creative communities. But it seems like everyday the online space becomes more and more hostile toward creatives and fans, and much more advertiser friendly. One thing i never ever wanted to happen was for my art to be used for AI, and I naively thought that tumblr would be safe in that way. Guess not. I sometimes wonder if eventually all large social media will crash down and The People will dedicate to going back to personal websites and forums. I would enjoy a space where I could share my art on my own terms, and not have other peoples interaction with it overshadow everything else.

I'm not sure what I'm going to do yet. For now I will be staying on tumblr until I figure it out, but definitely no more posting creatively. I want to try to keep my work up if I can. I would recommend on all your blogs going to settings and toggling ON "prevent third-party sharing for this blog", as that will let tumblr know you wish your work, including reblogs of it to be excluded from the scraping. I'm unsure how actually useful this will be, or how much the company will respect these wishes but. It's there. I would also love for you to come talk with me @boobookiss and, hey, maybe make a cohost account. I'm on there as boobookiss as well. I hope to keep touch with you all and see this little community stay together.

[y-vna]

Just so it's clear, one of my big dni crits is this:

TW: My rant includes HEAVY topics of ed (eating disorders) and intentionally starving yourself/unhealthy weight loss 🙁.

This post is also ULTRA long, will definitely contain grammar and spelling mistakes, and I'm not going to say 100% everything here is accurate information, as I'm a human and I make mistakes too.

Let me get this clear, I dont mean anyone harm with this post. My intention isn't to hate or attack/hurt anyone to make them feel upset. I know that having an ed is a serious matter. I have friends and family who actively have/had these kinds of eds, so im not uneducated on this subject and I do understand it to a very in-depth degree. This is not to say I know everything about this topic, however.

It is definitely not easy to recover from, and lots of people struggle from it every day. I am NOT saying people with this disorder are any less human than anyone else. I'm saying it's toxic for those who do have it since it actually harms your body a lot, and pushing it on others (not the fact you have it in the first place) is something I don't support.

So respectfully, if you do support/promote eds as a positive thing, or are/follow/interact with blogs who do, BLOCK ME AND DNI. thank you.

I love everyone for who they are inside, regardless of what their body looks like. And I'm telling you right now, as someone who tried so hard to have a perfect body and stop eating bc im super insecure, it's not worth it, and it makes you feel so shitty. I love you, whoever is reading this, no matter what. So please don't change who you are just to make others happy :( <3

--

So I was looking thru tumblr, and this one post kept getting shown to me where people were talking about basically the idea of: "its worth it to keep losing that undesired weight, you'll see results soon" as like a motivational thing. The tags (straight up tells you it's supposed to be inspo to becoming skinny and supports the idea having an ed is the only way to get a dream bod), and their whole blog had ed encouragement/motivation. To keep...starving, i guess.?? Despite their user being about being strong and healthy, nothing about this is healthy or keeps your body strong.

I didn't decide to write a whole rant about just that part of the post because I didn't start getting super concerned until i read the notes/comments (since i had seen a lot of these 'tw : ed' blogs before already). What I saw was that tons of users were promoting starving yourself as a goal and a good thing, and basically glorifying having an ed. And also using kpop idols with skinny and perfect figures like wonyoung to tell others that (almost a literal direct quote from this user-) 'us ed people don't want to be helped and we won't stop starving ourselves until we reach the weight we want.'

"You see it as negativity cause you're not disordered." KEEP IN MIND THE PERSON THEY'RE TALKING TO USED TO ACTUALLY HAVE AN ED (the screenshot below is the person they were talking to). I understand you can't push people to get help if they don't want it, but you have to draw a line when you start saying that every person with ed doesn't want help, which just isnt true. I looked at their blog, and it was all just calculating how many calories they ate and burned every day. Most of the posts they basically only totaled 300 calories a day. THAT IS SUPER SICK ☹️. An average human needs like 2000+ calories a day. It actively influences people to copy them by posting and blogging this SUPER unhealthy weight loss. It IS NOT positive on any level. It does nothing good for you. You won't feel any happier when you look in the mirror if all you can feel is pure hunger because you won't give your body what it needs. This is so sad to me because all the comments had people trying to ask how to start starving themselves, and every blog I clicked on all had ed triggers on their posts and bios. Some of those blogs were saying NOT to become like them because they can't see themselves recovering now that they're in too deep.

As said by people online who actually had and got through having an ed, they have explained it is very unhealthy and they were glad to recover. So even though I do not have an ed, and you might think I shouldn't be "judging" people who have them, there are plenty of formerly ed diagnosed people who know the bad effect it has on others/had on them because they can accurately relate. You can still educate people on a subject even if you yourself do not have to suffer from it/have it, as long as you're doing it properly with proven facts (literally all credible research you do anywhere backed by science and experts will prove eds aren't healthy). People educate themselves to teach others about other illnesses, ongoing or past wars in history, etc, they don't have firsthand experience with/from. And they can still be just as valid sometimes.

My whole point here is that on tumblr and so many other social media platforms, I keep seeing people (posts like this and whole blogs centered around this stuff,) encouraging (mainly young) girls to stop eating altogether to have a body that society and other people are more satisfied with. That's why, for a while, I also tried to do the same because of the people saying it was a positive thing to gain a bad relationship with food and start counting your calories to be perfect. I'm also someone who struggles with body image and being shamed for gaining weight. But at some point hou need to realize hurting your body and mental state is SO WRONG. NOBODY is perfect. So don't push you or anyone else to be. I learned this, and I get its super hard to ignore the judgment forced onto you by society and your surroundings, but there will be people who appreciate you just how you are now. Like me.

So with all that said, the moral here is:

Don't starve urself (on purpose. Bc some people genuinely have trouble eating and starve themselves non intentionally. I have friends who do this 😭)

You're perfect how u are now without being as slim as your idols (and even K-pop idols don't tell others usually to be like them because they know that their companies forcing them to strictly control their weight isn't something they want fans to look up to).

Don't force (potential) ed on others

Don't encourage unhealthy relationship with your body and food

I do support people with eds, as long as they aren't trying to make it something others should look up to, and aspire to have.

If you are someone who wants to normalize having an ed as healthy or positive, please do not interact with this blog and feel free to block me :(

Thank you for reading, have a good day and ily for whoever is reading this. 💗💖💓💕

I wasn’t on tumblr when Taylor was, what happened with the fanbase?

Short answer: this fandom was insufferable.

Long answer (I did not mean for it to be this long):

There were 2 sides of the fandom: the "I love Taylor Swift and want to interact with other swifties" side and the "I love Taylor Swift and want to interact with her" side. Taylor's presence on tumblr started out so genuine!! She would get to know people and act like another fandom member, but then people found out how to game the system. People would buy as much merch as possible, take selfies in it, tag @taylorswift @taylornation in every single post, and self reblog it like 100 times in a row. And Taylor would see the posts and be like "thanks for supporting me! You are so cute!" And would like the posts.

This created an economy with 3 currencies: Taylor likes, Taylor reblogs, and Taylor follows. Most peoples bio included "Taylor liked ×23. Taylor reblogged ×1. Taylor follows." If your bio had a "Taylor follows" people would regularly ask you to reblog their posts for Taylor to see (what a superiority complex that must have caused). This eventually cumulated into "group blogs". These blogs would make their entire purpose to support each other and other swifties (jk they just pretended that part). It was made of people with Taylor follows who would solely self reblog selfies of them and their friends in Taylor merch. They also reblogged "tour posts" which is when people would wear costumes relating to Taylor's lyrics that were extra enough for Taylor to want to meet them. The entire fandom was built on the idea of being noticed by Taylor.

This became extremely toxic. Your friend keeps getting Taylor likes but Taylor hasn't liked your posts since she followed you. You are upset. I had friends get Taylor follows and no longer need me to hype them up so they unfollowed me. The purpose of fandom was not to join together to celebrate Taylor, but to pretend to support each other to push yourself to the top and get the most attention.

Okay, let's say you find this so dumb. You unfollow everyone who self reblogs and is obnoxious. Problem fixed, right? No. Somehow, all your relatively normal mutuals and people you follow are still getting sent tour posts to reblog because Taylor follows them. You follow Taylor and she is reblogging chain posts and the entire post is "don't read the last page but I stay @taylorswift @taylornation " reblogged 100 times with different selfies attached. You are a dedicated member of the fandom and make many popular posts. Your friends hype you up. You go to your show in an elaborate costume because it sounds fun. Taylor never sees it but she meets the person from a group blog who reblogged their selfie 457 times. That person quits tumblr a week later. 3 months later they are trash talking Taylor and tumblr swifties from the safety of twitter. Also a lot of these people were problematic (they are using fellow swifties as stepping stones so this tracks) so there is SO MUCH fandom drama related to people being problematic. No matter what you do, you cannot escape it.

Okay so eventually someone changes their post that Taylor liked to be a message to Taylor to take action on BLM. Taylor had been pulled into too many directions by the fandom and was starting to work on folklore while being on tumblr less. She goes offline. All the self rebloggers leave. The fandom finally chills out and returns to what it once was. However, to this day swifties still say "I miss Taylor and I wish she would come back to tumblr"

Wishing for anti-endos to loose all their friends and spaces and to be ostracized does not help pro-endos. It makes anti-endos even more set in their beliefs. It makes people who are on the fence go "yikes, I guess the anti-endos are right". I'm firmly pro-endo and your recent post makes me want to take some distance. This isn't how we gain allies.

I know, these people suck. I know, it hurts to constantly be excluded and hated for the way our brains work or the reason why they work that way. I know, many anti-endos are too far gone and aren't people that you or I can reason with unless they decide to unpack their shitty beliefs.

But posts threatening them is not the way to go. They already see us as the enemy. We don't need to add fuel to the fire. Let's make sure people who are on the fence or who don't know much about non-traumagenic systems see us acting in ways that make them want to listen to our side instead of the fakeclaimers. Let's make sure anti-endos who are starting to rethink their beliefs feel like it's safe for them to do so and to start listening to pro-endos.

I'm sure this post is gonna get lots of interaction. But if it makes people less likely to read your studies, to listen to your arguments, to hear out the systems messaging you about their experiences? That's all for nothing.

I... actually think adding fuel to a fire can be useful sometimes. As long as you can keep it a controlled burn.

I'm counting on most anti-endos on Tumblr who would be scrolling through the syscourse tag already having me blocked. They won't see my post.

I'm counting on neutrals probably not following my blog or the syscourse tag either one. And most of those that do follow syscourse have already made their minds up about me.

I made that post for a very specific audience. One that doesn't actually need anyone to fuel its fire because they've built an entire community on seeking out systems to mock and attack. They already cherry pick the worst posts they can find to keep their friend group indoctrinated. So adding one more to the pile shouldn't matter to that specific group.

I don't think anything I say is actually going to make them hate the endogenic community more than they already do because they're surrounded constantly by people who will always reinforce that very generalized hate.

But I do think I can direct that hate they already have. Focus it as much as possible on one specific person. Me.

And the more they see me as a threat, (whether or not I am,) the more hateful they respond to me, the more their community will crack.

Users will be more likely to break their rules, making moderation in their subreddit more difficult for the unpaid mod team who will hopefully start rethinking how much of their life they want to dedicate to a hatesub moderating an angry userbase with nothing to show for it.

And while a slim hope, I'm waiting for them to be pushed far enough for Reddit to ban the whole subreddit.

So yeah. I don’t mind tossing as much fuel on the fire as possible if there's a chance their ableist hatesub burns.

Besides... I'm not actually saying anything untrue.

Plurality IS going to become more accepted. They ARE losing the scientific argument. And anti-endos and cringizens WILL lose friends and community support as plural acceptance spreads unless they're willing to change. A safe space for endogenic systems can never be one that houses anti-endos.

This is not a threat. This is a promise. It's a natural result of progress. And I'll do my part to accelerate this. But it's going to happen with or without my involvement.

I'm just making sure that when it does and they go looking for someone to blame because things have gone bad in their lives and their bigotry caught up with them, they'll direct their anger toward me instead of anyone else.

(Although maybe they can direct it inwards too since, you know, it was their fault for being bigots. But I think that would be too much to ask for.)

another tag-to-alert of tumblr scam reblogs

You know, since they do say to "answer privately so you don't look pressured" and there really are so many, how are you supposed to keep track of them all? (it's usually the same one, so mostly just keep your eyes peeled, and they're changing URLs when one gets listed)

^ 11/12 updated longass update post/reblog-comment chain. I do see they're using an entirely different cat image now but it still is the exact same scammer.

This is not intended to cause harassment, this is just because the account/post is new enough that I can get the word out to people who have reblogged without trying to serial-message people (and that doesn't look great either). This is simply a heads-up "hey, that person's lying, I need to get the reblogs to die off". Nobody did anything wrong, really, except the asshole lying about a sick cat(s) and owning plushies they have the ability to sell.

@fernisgay1121, @magsalecs, @cluz1babe, @mildhigh, @marzipan-maples, @zlamanypedzel, @crowandmoonwriting, @firelord-aub, @asongofsunflowers, @insertridiculoususernamehere, @kiribakumybeautifulotp, @greensebby, @heretolurkandnothingmore, @hexblooddruid, @oceanlaceagate, @thebookwormdiaries, @im-like-if-a-girl, @oh-no-its-danger-gays, @slushielesquigz[untaggable,sorry], @splitriverghostie, @rattyshipss, @shweebie[untaggable], @blowjob-horseguy

I tried, you don't need to reblog this specific post or anything, it's just to let people know that this is in fact a scam that's been going on for almost a month by the same person over 2 different stories, with now pictures of 3 different cats. < Two of which have had their fundraiser stories stolen by this person. This scammer is also changing urls as soon as one's listed, so be aware.

Hongjoong Halazia Fancam

She watches her boyfriend in awe as he performs

The way he dances, the looks on his face, the way he goes so hard

He's amazing and so freaking hot

He looks in the crowd, his eyes on her, performing for her, to make her proud

Yes he performs for ATINYS too, but everything is for her

His whole life, everything he does is for her

The love of his life

And he's hers

Everything she does is for him

To support him, to help him

They found each other while they were young, still in high school and they know how lucky they are

He moves so fluidly, his face angelic as he waves his arms and turns his head, showing off his sharp jawline that she loves to kiss

She knows how well his angelic face can change into complete sexiness in mere nanoseconds

She sees it so many times when she's under him or on top of him

She watches him get into position for the chorus, smiling as he does the moves, the demon coming into him as ATINYS say

She's so proud of him for all the hard work he does for Ateez

Yes he is busy a lot of the time, yes they don't spend as much time together when there's a comeback but she accepts it, knowing he's working hard to make ATEEZ a success

But no matter how busy he is, he comes home every night, she sleeps in his arms every night and she's grateful for that

The performance ends and he stands on stage breathing hard, his eyes darting between her and the rest of the crowd, trying not to stare at her and give anything away

He fails, his eyes on her, holding her gaze before forcing himself to break it

She smiles as they walk off the stage, the security guards in front of her indicating for her to follow them

🦁🦁��🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁

Hongjoong POV

I eagerly wait for security to bring her to the dressing room

I couldn't keep my eyes off her the whole performance

It's rare that she's in the crowd and she's all I could stare at

Seeing her smile, singing along, cheering, is something I don't see often and will never tire of

"Baby!", she calls

I turn as she enters the dressing room, running to me

"Jagi", I smile, catching her, picking her up

Her arms and legs wrap around me, hugging me tightly

"I'm so proud of you Joongie!", she gushes, "You were so good!"

"You think so jagi?", I ask, knowing full well she does think so

"Of course Joongie", she says, pulling her head back to look at me, "You're always amazing baby. The way you rap and the sexy way you dance. You're the best baby and the best captain ever! You know the guys think so and I do too"

"Thanks jagi", I grin, feeling my cheeks heat up a bit

Her praises always make me blush

Her fingers run through the front of my hair a few times as she smiles, "You're the best Joongie. I love you"

"I Iove you too", I answer

She leans down, pressing her lips to mine and I eagerly kiss her back

I live for her kisses and there's never a time I won't kiss her

"Oh god, here we fucking go", Wooyoung sighs

"They at it again?", Yunho asks

"Yup"

"Let's just go", Seonghwa says, "You know they're gonna fuck, so I'm out"

"Yup, me too", Jongho says

Breaking the kiss, she looks towards the door

"You guys! You don't have to go"

"Yeah we do Jo", Seonghwa says, "Use the time we're giving you before we have to get ready for Cyberpunk"

"You're all jerks", I snap, hating how they're calling us out and potentially embarrassing her

I don't care about them making fun of me, I care about her

The door closes and we're left alone

"Jo, I'm sor-"

I'm cut off when her lips crash into mine, my mouth immediately moving against hers

Her hands push against my jacket, shoving it down my arms

"Baby-", I ask, breaking the kiss

"Shh, they're not gonna stay away forever. Hurry baby"

I raise my eyebrows, "You wanna? After they called us out?"

She rolls her eyes, "C'mon Joongie, you think I care what they say? There's no way I'm giving up a chance to be with you. Unless you don't want to?"

I snort, "Of course I want to. I always want you"

"Then shush and fuck me"

I smirk, putting her down, both our hands undoing each other's pants

Mine drops to the floor, while she kicks her shoes off, taking her pants and panties off, our shirts flying off right after

Grabbing her, I turn her around, pushing her against the nearest wall, "Open your legs for me baby girl"

She spreads her legs as I pull her ass out a little, thrusting right into her tight, wet, waiting hole

She swallows my cock perfectly, clenching hard around me, her cunt drenching me like a waterfall

"Oh fuck Joongie!", she cries

"Fuck baby. So good. Nice and tight", I moan

"Fuck me Joongie, please", she begs

Pulling back, I slam inside her, making her take my whole cock and I start moving at a hard pace, splitting her hole open

Keeping her body against mine, I move my hand in her hair, wrapping it in a ponytail

Then I pull, her head tilting back as I fuck into her pulsing cunt

"You like this huh?", I growl, moving my other hand to her clit, rubbing harshly, a loud moan escaping her pretty lips, "You love my cock fucking you like you're my personal fuck toy huh? My personal cock sleeve. You wanna be worn all the fucking time huh?"

"Yes", she cries, her hands leaning on the wall, "Yes baby"

"My little cock slut", I murmur, thrusting up into her, my head hitting her spot, "Such a perfect pussy, meant just for me"

"Yes Joongie. Just for you. I'm just for you", she whimpers, her eyes closed, tears running down her face

"Aww jagi, crying for my cock already? I've barely fucked you and you're already crying?", I tease harshly

"Yes", she whines

Plunging in her cunt harder, her pussy throbs so quickly around me

"Aww baby. Gonna cum already?"

"Yes. Please Joongie. Let me cum"

"You're lucky I have another performance in a little while or the answer would be no"

"Can I?", she asks and I can feel her cunt trying to loosen around me, trying to hold her orgasm back until I say she can cum

"Yeah baby girl. Go ahead"

Her body shakes, pussy coming in my cock, clenching my dick in a death grip, her moans right in my ear

The familiar pleasure that I absolutely love hits me hard and I close my eyes feeling her orgasm on me

"Good girl baby. Feels so good", I praise her

I wait until she completely finishes before I pull out

"No Joongie!"

"Shh baby", I say, spinning her around to face me and crashing my lips to hers

Picking her up, I quickly move us to the floor with her in my lap as I lay back on my elbows

She follows, still kissing me

"Mmm baby", I say between kisses, "Ride my dick"

Her hand moves between us, her pussy engulfing my cock right away

Pleasure flows in my veins as she pushes down, getting my entire cock inside her

Her hips move in a circle as she grinds on me, her arms around my neck, her tongue moving against mine

Her pussy is so warm, tightening over and over when my head rubs her spot

Her hips move faster, rocking back and forth, feeling so good

She pulls away from my lips, her fingers traveling into my hair, pulling my head back

Her lips press a kiss into the spot she knows drives me crazy, her tongue licking my skin

My body shivers and she laughs so fucking sexily that I get more turned on, my cock twitching inside her

"Mm Joongie. I feel your cock moving", she murmurs, kissing by my ear, sending shivers down my spine, "Feels so good"

"You feel good", I pant, "Fuck cum on my cock. I need to feel it"

I want the pleasure from that now

Right now

Her hips pick up speed, moaning against my neck, her cunt spasming so pleasurably

"Hongjoong", she whimpers, keeping her body against mine as she cums

"Oh shit", I whimper, closing my eyes, feeling her

"Joongie", she whines, rocking on me through her orgasm

"Good baby?", I ask, when she finishes

She nods, "Yes baby. Want more"

"More?", I ask

She sits up, facing me, looking at me shyly while I raise my eyebrow

"Yeah more. Please Joongie. Your cock feels so good. I don't want you to leave yet"

"Jagi, I don't have time-", I start

"One more. Please baby", she pouts

I can't tell her no

Not for anything

Anything she asks I'll give her

I'd give her the world if she asks

"One more", I say sternly

She smiles and I can't hold the serious face, smiling slightly

She gives me a quick peck, then sits up, her sexy body hitting me right in the face

She pushes me down, then reaches behind me to pull my legs up, bending my knees

She leans back against my thighs, her eyes on mine and she starts bouncing

I bite my lips, watching her boobs jiggle, the pleasure on her face

She's so fucking beautiful

I thought so from the first time I saw her in school

Just a beautiful girl who didn't know she was beautiful and who wanted me

I'm so lucky she's mine

"Fuck Joongie", she moans, hopping on my length, slamming her spot on my head, squeezing the life from my cock, "So hard baby. God, best cock ever"

I smirk, watching her move

I love how she says I'm the best even though I'm the only guy she's ever been with

And she's the only girl I ever been with

But I know what she means because she's the best too

She moves her legs, keeping her feet on the floor as she rides me, her legs spreading wide open for me

I can't help but look, moaning at seeing her swollen pussy lips wrapped around my cock so perfectly

"Fuck jagi, look at this pussy creaming my cock so much", I praise, my eyes on her cunt taking me in, leaving a huge mess with every move, "My pussy's hungry huh? Eating my cock so well"

"So hungry for your dick baby", she whines

Apparently as there's so much fucking cream everywhere, dripping onto my lap

Her little clit is throbbing, begging me to suck on it

I can't right now but I'm definitely eating her cunt until she's numb later tonight

For now, I move my hand, rubbing her clit with my thumb

"Joongie!", she moans, bouncing harder, "Fuck! I'm gonna cum!"

I am too

As soon as she does

"Go ahead baby"

Her eyes lock on to mine as she says, "Fill me up after?"

"Always baby girl"

Her eyes closed as her body leans back against my bent legs, dropping her cunt down my length hard

She cries out in pleasure as her pussy bursts liquid, completely soaking my lap and the floor as she squirts

"Yes baby, don't stop!", I cry, grabbing her hips and moving her up and down my length, feeling the blissful vice grip she has my cock in

Liquid splashes everywhere but I don't care

I'm gonna cum into her squirting cunt

Ecstacy takes over as I slam her down and hold her, coming deep inside her as I yell wordlessly

Oh my fucking god, it's fucking amazing

So fucking intense, giving her everything I have

And her cunt takes my cum so beautifully, spasming around my cock to get it all

"Baby", she moans as I slowly come back to my senses

Glancing up at her, I smile softly as her loving gaze

She leans over me, pushing my sweaty hair from my face

"I love you Joongie"

"I love you Jo", I tell her, "So much"

"So much", she agrees

A pounding on the door scares the shit out of both of us

"Are you done? We need to get ready!", Seonghwa yells

She rolls her eyes while I yell, "Give us a minute!"

"Time to get up jagi", I tell her

"Wah", she pouts

"Don't worry baby. I'm gonna eat and fuck your cunt all night tonight"

"Promise?", she smirks

"Oh I promise", I assure her

"Ok then", she says, then stands up

Her hand moves to her cunt, holding my cum in while she runs and grabs tissues

Both of us clean up and rush to get dressed before they come back

I just pull my shirt on when another bang sounds through the room

"Yeah yeah come in", I yell

The door opens as they file back in, most of them avoiding eye contact with us

Not Seonghwa though

"Uh why is the floor wet?"

Both of us immediately look down to where we were fucking and yeah, the carpet is wet

"Uh.....", I start

"She squirted?", Seonghwa asks

"Hey!", I snap

"Oh please!", Seonghwa snorts, "You constantly brag about how much you can make her squirt"

"Really Joongie?", she rolls her eyes

"I...that...you", I say, flustered

"Whatever, you should wipe it up", he says, then passes us towards the clothing rack

"Jagi-", I start but she just shakes her head, "Whatever Joongie. It's not a big deal"

"Are you sure?", I ask, gaping at her

"Yeah", she says, coming closer to me, her arms around my neck, "I don't care what you tell the guys about us. My friends know you're a sex god with a massive cock"

Uh what?

"They do?"

She nods, "So I don't care about what you tell them unless it makes me look bad"

"I would never make you look bad baby"

"I wouldn't do that to you either", she says

"Thanks", I chuckle

"You're welcome", she smiles, "Now kiss me then get me some paper towels"

"Yes ma'am", I smile, then lean down and press my lips to hers

GET TO KNOW THE MUN!

Fill in this form to let your RP partners your preferences in terms of writing. Knowing your partners better makes figuring out the kind of interaction you can have with each other easier! Repost, don't reblog.

name: Eve

pronouns: she/they, I don't really mind which

preference of communication: I like to use Tumblr IMs when I don't know someone very well, and Discord when I do

name of muse(s): It's a long list, some of them I don't even write on here. Look at the list I have for the ones I write on here!

rp experience / how long: I think since I was twelve. So that'd be eight years now and that's. Insane? Yeah.

best experience: that genuinely depends because I have so many good ones it's hard to decide. But for now I think it'd be just. All the friends I've made and the lasting bonds I have with people just from writing. It's how I'm able to keep coming back, because I feel happy talking to people on here :D

rp pet peeves / deal breakers: I think like. Hounding me for replies is the biggest one, because my energy for writing really changes depending on my circumstances and everything else my brain is stuck on. I also feel uncomfortable with those caught up in drama culture. Tell us about a person if they're genuinely hurting people, but I don't wanna know about your tiffs and I'll choose what I think based on my own experience.

fluff, angst, or smut: Fluff and angst depend on how I feel in the day, but I don't like writing smut.

plots or memes: I like both, but I think memes are easiest when I don't have as many ideas, and plots are fun when I've been talking to someone for a while and are comfortable just playing around with stuff!

long or short replies: Depends on the sort of thread, really?

best time to write: Afternoon. I'm awake and have slacked off for a while but it's not too late that my brain is dead.

are you like your muse: I'm not writing about every single muse but I put a little bit of myself into every muse that I write, for better or for worse.

Tagged by: Theo I saw you ghost tag me don't think I didn't /lh @aquaticsoul

Tagging: You <3

FAQ... 2

(Feel free to message my inbox, queries will be added here as and when questions are asked)

Do I need to answer the "likes/ dislikes" part of the form?

Nope! If you're not fussed on what is created for you then by all means leave them blank, the only required questions are your URL (so that I can contact you) and your chosen medium. Your partner will have your URL so they can always mooch through your blog if unsure.

Why did you ask for our chosen mediums if the draw is random?

Because I'm genuinely curious! You're a talented bunch!

You keep using the word "partner" will the person I get, get me?

No, I'm saying partner because it's thematic for DE and I can't think of a better general term.

How will the draw be done?

Incognitosanta seemed to work pretty well last time, so I'll be doing that again! (Unless responses from THIS poll indicate otherwise) This means I'll post a link and once live you click on YOUR OWN url to see who you've been paired with!

I will create a random draw, then me and @koreplus will message half of you each with your recipient and their likes/ dislikes. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU'RE FOLLOWING OUR BLOGS IF YOU HAVE "only blogs I follow can message me" ON IN THE SETTINGS!

I want to change my Tumblr URL but I've already filled in the form!

Just DM me @thegrimreaperisanerd I'll make sure I amend it in my notes so that you get tagged in everything correctly :)

Help! I signed up and I'm not going to be able to create something in time! What do I do?!

Things happen, it's okay. However PLEASE let me know ASAP so I can make sure your partner isn't left out on posting day.

What do you mean I have to contact my recipient myself if I've not posted anything by August 5th?

That form question is irrelevant for 99% of people, it's more so that I'm not trying to chase up missing gifts over a month after the upload date... Running/ setting this up last year ended up being moderately more effort than I anticipated. Which is fine! I'm glad so many people were interested!

But, I ended up begging for assistance and @koreplus very kindly became a second point of contact. However, I am just *generally* not very organised, so it's to help mediate some of MY stress.

Like I said: will most likely be irrelevant, but if you don't contact me before upload day (I can try to work with you to help you finish/ potentially assign your partner to somebody else; IF I am given enough notice) and time passes and your partner hasn't received a gift OR an explanation, it's not really fair to them, is it? Nobody likes to feel left out.

Who are you?

Hiya~ Tumblr user thegrimreaperisanerd here. I use they/them pronouns. If you have any experience running/ moderating something like this then don't hesitate to reach out! For the love of God!

We had 56 responses last time, so as this grows (and with this having been done previously) I'm expecting that number to be higher this time. After this summer cycle I would *really* like to give this project away to somebody more capable than myself!

My partner's "likes" are all things I'd rather not create, what now?

The likes section is more of a guideline! I included that in case you draw your partner and think "Well, I don't know this person at all." As long as you create something and put your heart into it then I can't imagine this will be an issue.

Just don't create something from their "dislikes" section, *THAT* is more important!

Huh, since the last Pale Static Exchange was based around the Winter Solstice I kinda thought this one would be based around the Summer Solstice?

Yeah me too~ Teehee~
