"does Seto Kaiba want to be a dragon or marry a dragon or have a dragon or what" Thank you for your inquiry, I understand the confusion. Seto Kaiba wants to stand victorious atop a windswept cliff face while the waves crash below and thunder roars overhead, as majestic dragons beat their mighty wings in circles above him and rain down lightning upon his enemies or anyone who has ever been mean to him or failed him or cut him off in traffic. And then he will pat the dragons on the head and give them treats as they return together to his glorious abode because only he is smart and virtuous enough to tame such a powerful beast and unlike the wretched frailty of humanity the dragons will never hurt or leave or betray him because they are creatures of unbroken loyalty and great wisdom as well as terrible power. Hope that helps.

Will the new Communities feature include a live chat? And will it be possible to pin a post at the top with a welcome, rules and info? I'm curious as to how this will shape up!

Answer: Hey there, @vaguelygenius!

In short: right now, no live chat. However, we are interested in it, whether it’ll feel needed or not, per se. And we are also looking into some kind of Discord integration instead of building a live chat (again) ourselves.

As for pinning a post: yes! We are playing around with the ideas of an About page, a Community Guidelines page, a Pinned Posts tab/feed, and whether just pinning posts to the main feed makes the most sense.

We will want to play around with these ideas once we’ve got more people using Communities for their own usage. Pinning posts may make a lot of sense for big communities with lots of passers-by, but makes no sense for small communities that really want to use pinned posts as a “highlights” feed.

Thanks for your interest in it! We’re glad to see it and will reach out when it’s time to open it up to more people.

Do you sell prints? Love your space goshawk!!

Thank you!

The closest thing I have is my old redbubble page, I haven't updated it in a long time. It might be worth updating it but I don't know if I have the audience for that anymore.

I noticed that when you Blaze posts, one of the metrics you get back is the number of "Shares". I really liked seeing that data because it means people are sending your post outside the Tumblr ecosystem to friends or family.

Are there plans to add this to normal posts?

Naturally this feature shouldn't include the identity of who shared, just the number of total shares. And since the bottom of posts is currently cluttered, it could instead be placed in the Notes tab for each post. 🤔

Answer: Hi, @vaguelygenius!

We hate to disappoint, but right now, no, we’re not planning to show this for all posts—sorry. It remains a special thing for people using Blaze at least for the foreseeable future. It would also require considerable work to incorporate more widely, and that work is a little outside our current bandwidth.

That is only the foreseeable future, of course. If things were to change, such as if we saw more usage of Blaze, we’d be more keen to bring this out to more people. Keep the questions coming, and happy Blazing, people.

Thanks for all of the great info you've been posting, I think I'm finally ready to adopt a cat and this knowledge will be super helpful! I have a couple of questions. First, if you volunteer with cats at a shelter, will this bother or put at risk a cat at home? Also, after the introductory period of keeping a new cat in a single room, should all of their stuff be moved right away to their permanent locations, or should like the litter box be inched along to its final destination? Thank you! 😺

First, congrats on your potential new addition! 

Now, as for the volunteer thing, there are a few risks that can be circumvented with careful preparation. It depends entirely on where you’re volunteering. At the shelter when I volunteered in the past, there is a designated sick room. The cats inside are all sick with SOMETHING, whether it’s a parasite or flea infestation or communicable illness. They do this to protect the other cats that they have. If your volunteer location has something similar to this, it’s usually pretty easy to be safe. 

If you’re concerned about jealousy, don’t be. It’s usually not an issue, and if you come home smelling vaguely of many cats, it’s usually not strong enough to really put off the resident cat.

However, things like parasites and other illnesses CAN cling to clothing. I recommend ALL volunteer clothing be changed as soon as you get home. While harder than cat to cat transmission, it is possible to contaminate your own cat with something from a cat at a shelter. The first, and most important step is to wash your hands. Even in the shelter, bring hand sanitizer with you. Before you touch a new cat, wash/sanitize your hands. If a cat sneezes or coughs on you, that’s it for your volunteer shift. You’ll need to sanitize your clothing and be sure not to touch any other animals. Most shelters or rescues will have protocol regarding this, if they don’t, play it safe and just do yourself and your home cats the favor.

It may seem severe, but once you get into a habit of it, it’s really not as difficult as it may seem. I even bring spare clothes with me in my trunk in case I want to stop by the shelter. Closed toed shoes and long sleeves and pant legs also help a lot if you’re able to play with cats in an open area.

As for the introductory period, it depends entirely on the cat. If the cat is very skittish, those items may need to live in that room from then on, and additional drinking, feeding, and litter box stations may be needed in addition to those things. If the cat is otherwise confident, they may not have an issue, but allow them to explore the rest of the house and offer that original room as a safe haven if needed. They may not feel comfortable leaving it right away, so if they hang back, even with the door open, you’ll need to adjust for the cat.
