#retroactively retagging this post

[crowswarm]

i said i wasnt gonna go off in ops tags but im still gonna go off

im seeing a lot of discourse about miguel and how he treats miles and im not gonna write him off cause he was outta pocket but like i consider peter b to way worse than him in that regard

cause for all the shit miguel puts miles through, its (arguably) impersonal. miguel presents himself as an obstacle for miles to overcome from the very beginning. peter b on the other hand, just failed so dramatically to come through when miles needed him and i cant respect that at all

like maybe he trusts miguel and believes what they're doing is necessary for the safety of the universe but he makes the barest minimum attempt to protect miles in any capacity. like miles cannot consider him an ally until its too late and thats so fucked up cause miles looks up to him and respects and loves him so much and what does he do. he lets miguel choke slam miles into a train

and like i know its lampshaded that hes a bad mentor but like shouldnt that weigh on him. hes so nonchalant about it. shouldnt the fact that this kid (honestly these kids plural, counting gwen) trusted him to look out for them and he failed make him question himself

like yeah miguel was too grown to be doing all that but its so much more frustrating watching peter b just fail to be in miles corner.

as i said when i get my hands on peter b parker torn asunder that man will be

this is directed towards the owners of the account, and sure, any "fans" too. you cannot pretend to not realize that ALL you're doing is bringing toxicity into the fandom.

it's been less than a week and your posts are already mimicking 2018/2020 fandom misogyny.

you're giving hate a platform. that's all you're doing. it's not fun, it's not interesting.

that in addition to how clueless you are about slurs and general etiquette and respect on the site, maybe should be a hint that you shouldn't be running this.

You can go ahead believe that I am clueless about slurs, but personally, as someone who's very identity gets called a slur all the fucking time, I get pretty annoyed when someone makes the call that something is a slur when it doesn't apply to them. Whenever something annoys me, I tend not to do it to others, but that's just me.

I may be a minority on a couple different fronts, but unless I was suddenly an expert in Native Canadian or Alaskan culture and general opinions of the term, I'm not making that call, and in my opinion, neither should anyone else who isn't either well informed or affected personally by that specific term. I know how etiquette on this site works. I've also been on this site, for long enough, to have formed my own opinions on how well this site practices etiquette. (That means I've watched enough people get run off this site to know this site kinda doesn't practice etiquette). I have explained, in my pinned post, exactly why I choose to ignore the rules people have decided are the standard, because they do not work for spoiler tagging, and we are discussing a media partially locked behind a pay wall. There are dropout fans, who can't watch every season of dimension 20, because they watch through YouTube and/or Spotify. I am going to continue using the primary tags as well as the anti tags for tagging purposes, because I do not want to be the reason someone learns about a character death, every time someone wants to talk about how they kinda didn't like a character who may or may not be a backup character wink wink to those of you who know which season i am referring to I fully gave everyone a new tag (#negative dropout confession), that I retroactively went back and applied to all the posts I believed it fit, so that you could block posts that were negative. Now I'm not perfect, and am actually pretty shitty at social queues and kinda forgetful, so if you find a post you think is negative in a way that isn't "i kinda would have preferred this, but i loved the season" let me know, i will retag it as such. I'm only human and just like everyone else, not above being checked on my shit. If that's still not enough, it's a 3 click process to block this blog entirely. We here at dropoutconfessions will be sad to see you go, but I'll still understand. A place of anonymity, to freely share how you feel, is going to attract people who have feelings that usual get them hatred. And yes, some people misuse it. Typically, I do one of 2 things when that happens.

If it's a misunderstanding of the media, I'll add corrections to to the response to clarify, anything I miss, 3-5 people will probably take care of within an hour of the post going up, just check the replies

If it's something truly awful to say, I'll block the asker and delete the ask. Something I've had to do about half a dozen times already.

I have, multiple posts, debating those very posts you are referring to I have, multiple people, defending those characters, in the replies and reblogs of those posts you're referring to I have, multiple posts, in queue (as of me writing this reply) because i don't like flooding people's blogs, that are saying the exact same thing, without calling me toxic and clueless I understand you don't like the hatred, I don't like it either. But I do believe everyone deserves a platform if they'll be civil about it, and they give their opponents an opportunity to call their take absolute dogwater, once again, check the replies, some of these asks get flamed almost immediately. And no. I don't think all I do is bring toxicity to the fandom. People use this as an outlet for how they feel about just, the story. There's like, multiple posts about how people are a bit overbearing expecting perfection from the cast and how certain seasons deserve more love and how amazing some of the other shows are and how amazing some of the cast members are. It's easy to see the negativity, but it's not all there is. And trust me I'm not immune to that either, it's exhausting sometimes. I have gotten more asks about how "obsessed everyone is with Brennan Lee Mulligan" than I ever have about Brennan in a context outside of d20, the show that he runs. Tunnel vision is a bitch sometimes. And at the end of the day, if you think I'm doing a bad job at this, you can make your own confessions blog. This blog exists cause I got bored of my statistics homework, and realized there wasn't a confessions blog. You can too, and if everyone prefers yours, they can use yours, I truly do not mind. This blog is just something I feel like needs to exist, and since no one else was actively doing it (as far as I could tell, no one has told me the contrary). It's really just something to do with my hands so I can focus on dnd games and my video calls with my gf. That's it. If you have any specific suggestions on how I can improve, I'm open to listening to them, as I have proved in the past, but beyond sharing how I feel and addressing how you feel, I don't really know what to say or do. Thank you for telling me how you feel about this blog, this fandom, and Dropout, a media company we love. That's all I could ever want from an ask on this blog.

autistic urge to retroactively categorize n retag all 5000 posts in my words tag

[greeneyedsigma]

Is it possible for you to create your own tag instead of using #one piece au

Not that i'm saying to stop posting, I just wanna see what other people make under that tag but it's hard to find since it's under your posts and since I follow you, I've already seen all your posts

I can.

I’ll start using the tag “Sigma’s One piece au”

But I’m not retroactively retagging posts. That would take time I don’t have. 🙂

[cassiasims]

all my hive stuff is tagged under h.i.v.e but the main tag is h.i.v.e. with the extra dot so now i either have to use both tags for the rest of my life or figure out a way to retroactively retag all my old stuff under h.i.v.e (without editing every post from the past 9 months)......help

[iridescentoracle]

oh quick update for those of y’all trying to keep this shit off your dashes: #post mcr has been retroactively retagged #pre resurrection. stuff related to last night’s show continues to be #mcr return, while anything new from here on out will be #post resurrection

[fluffyblue-multifandommess]

I’m changing up my tags a little

Instead of tagging all my original posts with “blue ramblings”, I’m dividing it into three tags

blue personal ramblings

this is for every post that’s just about me, my health, my life, (which tumblr alternatives i’m leaning towards lol), etc

blue fandom ramblings

this is for any posts make that are related to any fandom, whether it’s headcanons, theories, reactions, or complaining

blue shitposts

i think the name is self explanatory lmfao these are about neither my personal life nor any particular fandom they’re just random shit i think of when im really tired / have had too much sugar

so if there’s any of these types of posts you don’t want to see from me, blacklist these. i’ll also try and retroactively retag old posts but that’s mostly for my personal archiving needs so i’ll take my time with that

[artcritters]

Hello Critters! 

 This tumblr is new. It was created to foster more interaction between CR artists (and others).

Tumblr is great for sharing art, but unfortunately not a lot of people comment on the art they like or reblog. You can get hundreds of notes on a art piece but perhaps only one “Thats cool” comment. This is not very helpful for artists that are actually looking for real feedback. This tumblr is an effort to change that.

My hope is to create a community of critter artists that will leave comments and critique each other’s work and help each other with positive feedback and encouragement!

How does it work? First of all, this tumblr will only reblog art from artists that are actively looking for comments and/or critique. Therefore:

1) Tag your CR art posts with #artcritters (within the first 5 tags!) (Note: This even works retroactively: retag old art posts if you want them reblogged, they will now appear in the tag)

2) This tumblr will reblog any CR art from the main tag

3) Other artists (or any other interested parties) that follow the ArtCritters tumblr will see that post and are encouraged to leave comments on that art piece.

How do you comment?

Critters can comment or critique artwork by either:

1) Replying to a reblogged post on their dashboard if they are following the ArtCritters Tumblr

2) Reblogging the artwork and adding their comments in either the tags or main body text of the reblogged post.

3) Leaving a comment on the ArtCritters Tumblr by using the Disqus comment section below each reblogged post.

What should my comments look like?

There are no guidelines regarding length/detail of critique. Leaving any type of feedback is usually a huge improvement over no feedback at all. A short but sweet one sentence encouragement, or a paragraph filled with detailed pointers; any type of comment is encouraged!

In general positive feedback is recommended. Point out both the things that do and do not work. Do not be unnecessarily rude or overly negative (although I do not think that will be a problem with Critters!)

Now what?

If you want to help out, please reblog this post and invite other critters to join this community and get us started! (@criticalrolesource ? )
