so if my blog isn't all my own content, what on earth is it?????? 😨
ok, so you've been told to reblog, and that your tumblr blog shouldn't be only your own stuff... but like...
what goes on there then?
on tumblr, you curate a vibe. folks looking at your blog should see posts that match you, your style, and your energy.
as a streamer, posts on your blog should probably match the energy in your streams and your ""b r a n d"" (i know we all threw up but its fact).
look at this blog. perfectly curated to have excellent bug content - [@onenicebugperday]
ok cool but how do i do that? 🤔
first, take your original content and post it where makes sense. you can schedule posts and/or put things in your queue to go up whenever.
second, find some extra stuff to bring to your tumblr page that matches. good memes you have permission to share, maybe some gifs, maybe a quote or two.
lasty, look in tags that contain stuff that makes sense - are you a frog vtuber that likes cake? reblog frogs and cake. do you play minecraft? search for pretty minecraft screenshots. are you a dank memer who makes nasty jokes? reblog cursed stuff.
people following your blog should be served stuff that matches the reason they followed you a few times a day.
ok a y ... but won't my stuff get buried? i have things i wanna promote! 😓
reblog yourself fam
wait won't people get annoy-
reblog yourself
but how often??????
reblog afternoon posts at night for australlia. reblog weekly schedules a couple times a week. reblog your own art always, always, always.
won't the people seeing the same posts again be frustrated tho?!
like, probably not. BUT if you're worried just tag all your self reblogs with something like "#self reblog" or "#posting again". people can filter out a specific tag, so they don't have to see it!
ok but will it always be alright to share/reblog other people's art and stuff?
reblogs do a great job of crediting the original poster. if an artist posts stuff here they want you to reblog it. just make sure that if the blog you get stuff from isn't the original artist or poster, that they have credit and permission listed in the post (you're smart, just be careful).
very occasionally stuff will be specifically marked with a request not to reblog (mostly really personal stuff). you'll find these warnings in the tags, usually.
last question, i swear - what if i want to save/share/reblog/post stuff that doesn't match my ~vibe~?
make a sideblog! thats what sideblogs are for - they're for collecting a different vibe then your main blog and keeping your nasty meme mommy content from getting contaminated with all your visual asmr food reblogs.
you can have as many sideblogs as you want, and you can just let them breathe without worrying about how popular they get or whatever. and hey, no reason you can't self reblog sideblog content to let your followers know they can visit another blog for different stuff (including SPICY stuff uwu).
good luck out there champ - i hope this was helpful! let me know if you have any questions in the notes :)

To continue my thoughts with the whole Trump bs and in response to @chagalx (It won’t let me see the account for some reason)
If this seems rude I apologize, and I may be reading into this wrong, but just because I’m under the legal voting age doesn’t mean I can’t have an opinion on what is going on in the government. What the adults decide on affects us too.
I was simply trying to advise people to do their research before deciding on something, rather than believing everything they are handed.
So I’m sorry, but I’ll have my opinion and you’ll have yours. No need for yelling at kids on the internet just because they have a political viewpoint. Sheesh

non s.elfship related but I always wanted to share my original ocs! I created them around february of this year :3 I wanted to make something original for once and it would be a projection of many things I like/I'm inspired from
here's agent cobalt and agent ski! they're like this duo of mercenaries that goes around and does freelance "work" to probably earn something. there's no plot with them at the moment but they're just there to be the embodiment of the many things I'm inspired from :D
(the colored ones are the most recent and "final" designs)
^^ first drafts of them eheheheh ... wow my art looks kinda blegh
inspirations include; l.upin iii, mad.com, tf.2 and more recently — m.onkey w.rench c: both of them also have their own sources of inspiration (characters) but that's another can of worms for next time 🤧
