Steven Wheatfield - Started off as a parody version of Human!Wheatley but has grown into his own over the years. I use him in almost all my AUs and give him cameos frequently in my works. He is a British programmer and fills in for my "Smart Guy" roles.

Self Inserts

Atomic Ace (My Hero Academia) - Quirk "Adrenaline". Adrenaline gives her super strength, speed, and overall massive power. After many years she finally reached America's Number 1 Hero in her late 20's, only to lose it months later due to her quirk taking a toll on her body. In her youth, she hung out with All Might and David Shield during Toshi's American tour. All Might and AA both were in love with each other but were to focused on becoming hero's to admit it to one another. That is until AA comes to Japan years later during the show's events.

Kailey "Kat" Terranova (Metroid) - Kat is the Director of Development for Galactic Federation Space Research Station Number 2. In charge of keeping tabs with both the research team and Federation investors, Kat has been working with head scientist Steven Wheatfield to bring to light the transcendence of human minds into Artificial Intelligence. Unfortunately, things go wrong when the base is attacked by Ridley and the Space Pirates, and over the course of the Metroid franchise she becomes their unwilling genetically modified test subject.

Kat (Dragon Ball) - After her dad is killed by King Piccolo during the Piccolo arc in Dragon Ball, Kat sets off on her own with her newfound freedom. Little does she know that she will soon be making company with Piccolo Jr. Set between the end of Dragon Ball and DBZ. Later expands into DBZ as an AU where Kat and Piccolo know the events of the "canon" timeline, which causes Shin to get involved way early on to try and stop Buu and prior threats.

Kailey aka The First User (Wreck-It Ralph) - Is part of a test that sends people to digital space and is lowkey a Tron crossover insert and AU. She is the first person to have physical contact with Programs/game characters, triggering a series of events that lead the world to allow Programs to travel to and fro between digital space and the real world.

Kailey (Pokemon) - Owns a farm in west Unova. During her back and forth to the city after establishing her farm, news of one of the Submas brothers going missing is hard to miss. Little does she know that Arceus is about to use her, too, and soon she will cross fates with Ingo, the missing twin.

The Vulture (Spiderverse) - With her father abandoning her and her sickly mother, a new variant of the Vulture is soon to be added to the Spiderverse. Oscorp, having been experimenting on the poor population of the city, the Vulture is born with large brown wings as a result of her parents exposure to genetic mutagens. While her mother regards her as beautiful, society rejects her, burying her more into poverty. Ultimately, the illness takes her mother, and she seeks revenge on Oscorp and its hedge-funders.

Sarai Daan (Star Wars) - Sarai is a Togruta Jedi Knight and a survivor of the Clone Wars.

Kelda the Wild aka The Skrill Princess (How to Train Your Dragon) - A former hunter-trapper, Kelda once looked up to bounty hunters like Grimmel the Grisly during their youth and sought to appease her starving guild. However, her heart soon pulled her away from that life, and she would abandon all she knew to fight for the dragons, specifically a mother Skrill who left two children behind after she was killed by Grimmel.

Kat/Kailey/Kaleen/etc. (WoW, BG3, DnD, General Fantasy, etc.) - Always a Cleric with light or fire affinities, and always an Elf. Knowledgeable in Apologetics and religious texts of their god/gods and even other gods of their universe, and has a chaotic good alignment.

Kailey (Penguins of Madagascar) - is the human assistant to Dr. Octavius Brine aka Dave the Octopus. She is virtually the only human in the world to know his secret.

Guardian of Comfort (Rise of the Guardians/Guardians of Childhood) - Is the guardian of comfort and spirit of warmth and acceptance. Based on "comfort and joy" in the Christmas tune, she has fire abilities and is associated with candlelight. As a human, she died in a fire protecting the ones she loved, and was chosen by Man in Moon, to continue to provide her comforting presence to lost and despairing children all over the world.

Kailey (Sonic verse) - A human. Boom!Kailey is actually an isekai that gets sucked into the shenanigans of the universe taking place in the cartoon Sonic Boom and serves as the focal point for my other inserts in the many Sonic universes. Main!Kailey is a test pilot, with aspirations to have a "lazy girl job" and has goals to have what Boom!Kailey has. Both versions are in love or married to Eggman and the trend is that in every universe they always get together with him in some form, good or bad.

if you are ever a fool like me & wind up in a situation like, say, hitting the tumblr follow limit (5000 blogs… though in my defense, I've had this page since 2010)… here's a pro-tip for rapid unfollowing of inactive or dead pages.

even though xkit has a feature where it can go through all the blogs you're following and flag inactives, it's desktop-only, not very user-friendly, and takes about a million years + eats up all your pc ram to compute that data.

I, in comparison, am faster than my shitty ram.

so here's what you need:

an actual pc browser or desktop mode on a mobile browser (if you try to open this in a standard mobile browser, it won't give you all the information you want, and the app is just… not helpful here)

the total number of blogs you follow

basic arithmetic skills

you can get the total count of every blog you're following & see all those blogs listed at ➟ https://www.tumblr.com/following (same url for all users)

each of those listed blogs also has the time of their last update displayed under the username, with unfollow buttons for each to the right of that, displayed like:

the list of pages you're following displays in reverse chronological order (first page is your most recently followed blogs, last page are the ones you haven't seen in 7+ years), and each page displays 25 blogs at a time— so page 2 is at ➟ https://www.tumblr.com/following/25

you can always start at page 1 if you want, but those blogs are probably active. so I prefer to work "backwards," going from the oldest blogs I've followed down to the newest.

if the number of pages you're following divides easily into 25, you can get to that last page easily by subtracting 25 from that number:

example: if I'm following 5000 blogs, 5000 - 25 = 4975

I would start at ➟ https://www.tumblr.com/following/4975

if it's not a round number, you can get your starting page with a little bit more math:

[the number of blogs you're following] ÷ 25 = x ; so if you followed 4848 blogs, then x = 4848 ÷ 25 = 193.92

round x down to its nearest whole number ; 193.92 ≈ 193

multiply that new number by 25 ; 193 × 25 = 4825

your oldest follows / "start" page would be at ➟ https://www.tumblr.com/following/[final number] ; with the example math, it would be ➟ https://www.tumblr.com/following/4825

from there it's just a matter of clicking or tapping unfollow on everybody who's been gone too long for your taste, and then tapping "previous" to move backwards through the log.

I unfollowed over 500 pages in less time than it took me to type all this up, and was able to continue multitasking without my computer wheezing at me for an hour just to generate a list, using chrome for ios.

ymmv, not everyone spent years impulsively following random blogs & forgetting about them instantly until that limit comes back to bite them in the ass, but it's more productive than I've ever been with "spring cleaning" on this website before.
