How to spot a NSFW bot in a tumblr community (Or how to know if someone who’s joined your community might post it)

——————

This is just stuff I’ve noticed. Let me know if I should add something. I’m getting sick and tired of getting jump scared by them.

(Also, this list might be updated later when I come up with more stuff)

They have either spam lettered usernames or those basic ones they give you when you first make an account. It’s always the accounts with users villigantskyyodeler or ldlfjkd124. Not all accounts who use the suggested names or keyboard smashes are like this, of course.

They have an empty or undecorated blog, or have reblogged another bot’s spam. Again, not all empty blogs are like this, but from what I’ve noticed, the blogs are always the default.

They post a random letter or post an unrelated gif in your community. This is them getting their link ready to post, so this will disappear in a minute or two. If you see this in time, it’s best to immediately block and report the post!

Look out for these things, and if you have anything to add, let me know! It wouldn’t be a great idea to click the link either (I don’t care how horny you are lol). If you own a community and constantly see bots come in, it’s best to make your community to where people have to request to join, then you can watch out for these things! And, to the people who might have 1 and 2 and get denied entry to their community, I suggest decorating your blog and messaging them!

This has been a PSA! Reblog (if you’d like) to spread awareness!!

Bro tysm for always reacting w my posts on the Gorillaz community it means so much😍

Of course!! 🫶🏾✨

WAIT HOLY SHIT YOU LIKE PULSES.?? i’ve literally never met anyone who knows them they’re actually so good, plus they’re from nova

THEY’RE GREAT OMG; I RECENTLY STARTED GETTING INTO THEIR MUSIC! I don’t listen to metal too much, but it’s always fun to listen to them! And it’s something about where their from too made me more interested to listen to them lol ✨

poetry anon again!! it’s so lovely and sweet and ethereal, super sorry for sending two asks in a row, it had to be said!! gonna stop cramming your inbox now, i hope you have a delightful day/night!

It’s alright lol! Your words make me feel better since I’ve been in a little bit of a writing slump, and I try my best to make my poetry sweet and ethereal and everything!

I hope you have a wonderful day or night as well! :)

hii, on anon because i am Afraid but i just wanted to say that your poetry is really beautiful, i’m very glad it graced my dash

Awwwh! Thank you so much! I’m happy you find it beautiful! 🥰✨

uuhhh hi!! music thingy popped up on my dash, and i don’t really know your music taste, but jackboot jump by hozier is really good and the cardigans have a great cover of sabbath bloody sabbath

For Jackboot Jump:

This is one of my first times listening to Hoizer other than Take Me to Church and that other song that was popular last year lol. The song is pretty good; it reminds me of like a Home Depot or the country or something idk why, but it was enjoyable to listen to. 7.5/10

For Sabbath Bloody Sabbath:

I listened to the original song and the cover side by side and there was such a difference between the two! I like how in the cover it sounds kind of like elevator music or music that would play somewhere cozy or something. I don’t know if I can pick between the cover or the original though because I like both! I’ll also give this a 7.5/10

Can I touch you consensually?-🌺

Um- I don’t know- 😭

(Also, I know you’re just trying to be funny lol, dw ✨)

(Or I hope you’re actually joking)

it's aways good to remember that she was actually out as sapphic and such a good singer

Yeah! She is a really good singer, and I agree with a comment I saw on YouTube under this song: the song is calming yet kinda badass!

8/10 ✨

:3

4/10 just to make you angry, moss 🫶🏾/j

(Just kidding, it’s like a 7/10)

Guys!!

In my asks box, send me a song you think I’d like and I’ll rate it! I’ve been wanting to listen to new music for a while now lol

You can even send me your own music if you make some!

I won’t understand why people would bully other people for dressing alt or anything like that. Like, just admit you’re jealous that your outfit isn’t as cool or interesting; nobody is going to care. It’s fine. And if you wanted to, start trying to dress the same. You can be cool too

(Generative) AI is like a brain-melting parasite that sucks the life out of its hosts’ ideas and creativity and moves on when stuffed, carrying the last of its meal on it as it feasts on other unwilling people. Also like how bees do with pollen and nectar, but in a less beautiful way.

(If that makes sense-)

I love stained glass sm ✨

🥀

Thank you so much!! I’m happy you enjoyed it! ✨

Dear, soulmate…

Connected by lace,

An Invisible brace,

Energy unknown,

Charming me to roam.

She could be right here,

Yet I’m left to peer,

Through the world’s faces,

Snooping through spaces.

She searches earth too,

Darting through green, blue-

Or, at least, I hope,

She looks for our rope.

I can only dream,

That she’s a sun beam,

Caught in an eclipse,

Wishing for my lips.

Across or far from,

Desire pounds drums,

Belonging, beloved,

Her I wish to love.

If I walk and pass,

Would her heart of glass,

Ache with desire,

Set her mind on fire?

Do our feelings link,

Pour out in a sink,

That collects and holds,

What we wish to unfold?

Do my eyes deceive,

Make my soul believe,

I will not find her,

And I’ll fade and blur?

Gasping for some air,

I want to be there,

Able to breathe free,

But with you, I’ll be.

Together we’ll hide,

With unbreakable stride;

We’re two girls in love,

Love handpicked above.

I will search and search,

Till together we perch,

Will see you, soul mate,

Our sweet love awaits.

(I know some lines break the meter but I love them too much 😭. Let me know what you think! )

How to Write a Character

↠ Start with the basics, because obviously. Name. Age. Gender. Maybe even a birthday if you’re feeling fancy. This is step one because, well, your character needs to exist before they can be interesting. But nobody cares if they’re 27 or 37 unless it actually matters to the story.

↠ Looks aren’t everything… but also, describe them. Yes, we know their soul is more important than their hair color, but readers still need something to visualize. Do they have the kind of face that makes babies cry? Do they always look like they just rolled out of bed? Give us details, not just “tall with brown hair.

↠ Personality isn’t just “kind but tough.” For the love of storytelling, give them more than two adjectives. Are they kind, or do they just pretend to be because they hate confrontation? Are they actually tough, or are they just too emotionally repressed to cry in public? Dig deeper.

↠ Backstory = Trauma (usually). Something shaped them. Maybe it was a messy divorce, maybe they were the middle child and never got enough attention, or maybe they once got humiliated in a spelling bee and never recovered. Whatever it is, make it matter to who they are today.

↠ Give them a goal. Preferably a messy one. If your character’s only motivation is to “be happy” or “do their best,” they’re boring. They need a real goal, one that conflicts with who they are, what they believe in, or what they think they deserve. Bonus points if it wrecks them emotionally.

↠ Make them suffer. Yes, I said it. A smooth, easy journey is not a story. Give them obstacles. Rip things away from them. Make them work for what they want. Nobody wants to read about a character who just gets everything handed to them (unless it’s satire, then carry on).

↠ Relationships = Depth. Nobody exists in a vacuum. Who do they love? Who annoys the hell out of them? Who do they have that messy, can’t-live-with-you-can’t-live-without-you tension with? People shape us. So, shape your character through the people in their life.

↠ Give them a voice that actually sounds like them. If all your characters talk the same, you’ve got a problem. Some people ramble, some overthink, some are blunt to the point of being offensive. Let their voice show who they are. You should be able to tell who’s talking without dialogue tags.

↠ If they don’t grow, what’s the point? People change. They learn things, make mistakes, get their hearts broken, and (hopefully) become a little wiser. If your character starts and ends the story as the same exact person, you just wasted everyone’s time.

↠ Flaws. Give. Them. Flaws. Nobody likes a perfect character. Give them something to struggle with, maybe they’re selfish, maybe they push people away, maybe they’re addicted to the thrill of self-destruction (fun!). Make them real. Make them human.

↠ Relatability is key. Your character doesn’t have to be likable, but they do have to be understandable. Readers need to get them, even if they don’t agree with them. If your character never struggles, never doubts, and never screws up, I have bad news: they’re not a character, they’re a mannequin.

↠ You’re never actually done. Characters evolve, not just in the story, but as you write them. If something feels off, fix it. If they feel flat, dig deeper. Keep refining, rewriting, and letting them surprise you. That’s how you create someone who feels real.

Now go forth and write characters that actually make people feel something. And if you need a reminder, just ask yourself: Would I care if this person existed in real life? If the answer is meh, start over.

low effort witchy things ᶻ 𝗓 𐰁 .ᐟ

first thing in the morning—take three slow deep breaths (air/sky) more grounding than immediately checking a phone

notice your feet on the ground taking root when you stand up for the first time of the day, take a little stretch (earth/land)

wash or splash your face to get alll the way awake. then chug a big glass. (water/sea)

appreciate any trees, plants, dirt, or clouds you see

place both hands on your heart to feel your own heat and warmth. feel your heart beating. “i am alive” (fire)

wear or carry a rock, hagstone, crystal, talisman, or amulet

in times of stress or dissociation, rub your thumb in small circles on the back of your other hand to ground and soothe. (clockwise for attracting an intention, counterclockwise for banishing)

color magic with clothing

add cinnamon, lavender, or peppermint to coffee according to intention if you don’t want to drink tea

stirring tea/coffee according to intention

sometimes i pick a little affirmation for the day— “may i forgive myself” “the universe is within me/the wild is within me”

visualization—inhale a bright light and let it fill your lungs, exhaling clouds of negativity

or create a shield with breathing. with each breath, imagine a bubble forming around your body, then your aura, growing with strength.

cleansing shower at the end of the day (intending it to cleanse my aura makes me more motivated to take one, idkw)

if taking a bath, add a dash of moon water

sniff lavender essential oil before bed

look at the moon, talk to it. remind yourself that it’s the same one your ancestors knew.

When I say "connect with nature" I don't just mean the aesthetic forests with deer and beautiful flowers.

I mean the weeds growing through concrete, the fungus that grows on the rotten shed, the nettles that always seem to return and the scary, spindly cellar spider in the corner of the bathroom.

Nature is not always pretty or magical - the pigeons and seagulls you swat at are nature too, the wasps and flies that hover by your meals are animals too, store-bought strawberries and the leaves that fall from your neighbour's tree are not all that different from the Giant Sequoias and it's seeds.

If you want to connect and understand nature, I mean *really* connect to it, in it's entirety, you have to seek out and learn about the ugly, scary and mundane things as well. You don't have to like it, just don't forget that it's there.

Some ideas on how to (re-)connect with nature ♡

⭑ Take a walk through the forest or a park, don't use your phone or listen to music, rather listen to the sounds of nature actively. What can you hear?

⛤ Collect some leaves, rocks, pine cones, feathers or anything else that you think is pretty! Maybe use your bounty to decorate your home with it?

⭑ Go touch some grass! No, this is not a joke, let's go feel the grass between your fingers and toes.

⛤ Try to find some flowers and smell them, what can you compare the scents with? Preferably, go outside and find wild flowers instead if bought ones!

⭑ Take a bath in a lake or dip your hands and feet into the water (a river is perfect, too!) Close your eyes and just feel the water.

⛤ Have a little picnic on a meadow, at the lake, in the forest or at any other peaceful spot. It's a date with yourself and with nature!

⭑ If this is an option for you: do some gardening work. Get your hands all dirty with earth and mud!

⛤ Pick some wild flowers from a meadow and make a little bouquet with them. (But please don't rip out the roots!)

⭑ Talk to the trees. Yes, this sounds silly but a tree is a perfect listener and companion if you need to talk something off of your chest.

⛤ Watch the sunset or sunrise. Enjoy this magical moment. How many colors can you spot?

⭑ Get some houseplants and take good care of them every day. (If you have pets, make sure your new friends are not poisonous for them!)

⛤ Observe. What kind of birds, plants, flowers and trees can you find in your environment? What kind of animals can you meet in the forest nearby? (Maybe write your observations down in a notebook!)

⭑ Lay down on some moss, grass or sand and just exist and feel how the earth carries you.

⛤ Go plant some flowers!

⭑ Spend some time in nature without social media (maybe leave your phone at home!)

⛤ Take a walk in the rain and / or dance in the rain.

⭑ Watch a thunderstorm from a safe spot

⛤ Craft a moss jar (these are so cute and perfect if you want some more nature in your own home!)

⭑ Keep little jars or flasks of the elements in your home (examples: earth - moss/earth/sand, water - water from a lake/river or collected rain water, air - a feather, fire - ashes, a used match)

⛤ Be more attentive to your environment: when do you notices changes in the seasons?

⭑ Have a self-love day, because you are a part of nature as well and deserve your own love!

⛤ Try to actively appreciate nature: be more thankful for the food, the water, the warmth nature provides us

REBLOG IF ITS OKAY TO TALK TO YOU.

Please.

``Perhaps the world didn't just suddenly become a terrible place-Perhaps it was built on the shaky and unstable foundations of men who thought they were untouchable, of people who were so used to their way and used to the privilege of comfort, that when the cracks began to show, the trauma spilling and the affected began to yell their hearts out...maybe that's where it went wrong. Denial? Perhaps, but it's not as if the world just suddenly went on fire. Maybe it was always burning, and we just suddenly noticed. Not everybody knows how to extinguish their own paths and cool themselves down. All they know is how to fan the flames to make them spread, as that is what they've been shown. Maybe that is why we see the world is such an awful place-All we see is fire, the smoke clouds our vision and our judgement and we are hardwired to panic, and so we never see the fire extinguishers in the end.``

✨

``You may call me foolish, sensitive and unrealistic for crying tears of sorrow for the injustice in this world, yet I'd rather have a heart that beats to the rhythm of hope and determination, than a mind that has been cracked and beaten down too many times, by too many voices calling those very same things.``

Writer's Block

You’re staring at the page. The cursor blinks like it’s taunting you. You want to write—hell, you even know what you want to write about—but it’s like your brain’s frozen. That, my friend, is the all-too-familiar little bitch known as writer’s block.

So, how do you fight it?

Here’s what’s helped me, and maybe it'll help you too.

1. Write anything, even if it’s trash

Seriously. Open a doc and let yourself write the worst possible version of what you’re trying to say. No pressure. No editing. You can always clean it up later. A messy first draft is better than no draft.

2. Change your scenery

Sometimes your brain just needs a different view. Go outside. Sit at a café. Write on your phone instead of your laptop. A small change can trick your brain into feeling inspired again.

3. Idea dump

Forget structure. Forget plot. Just go full chaos mode. Rant about your characters, the scene, or how much writing sucks today. That little brain dump might lead you to a breakthrough.

4. Read something short and good

A poem. A Tumblr post. A flash fiction piece. Sometimes reading a spark of good writing reminds your brain how fun words can be.

5. Accept the block, but don’t leave it there

Writer’s block is normal. It doesn’t mean you’re broken. It just means your brain’s buffering. Rest, hydrate, and be gentle with yourself. Then try again.

---

Writing is weird. Some days it flows like magic, and other days it’s like dragging your soul through the trenches. But if you’re stuck, don't give up on it— the words will come back.

✨

``The greed for external validation, the maddening hunger for the slices of praise that never fill yet never satisfy the void within you, weakens the ultimate need to look at yourself in the mirror and say; "I shall love myself for as long as I live, for outside praise is fragile and fleeting, but the strength to validate myself at my best and at my worst is what shall keep my going." For as long as you drink from sweet yet empty words with those hardened hands of yours, you shall never truly have the ability to thrive on your own time and will only survive as a section in their schedule.``

-Tired ramblings from me!

These are actually so cool-
