tumblr is apparently rolling out a beta for a new post editor that essentially makes it so there are no longer post “types” (text post, audio post, photo post, etc.), and instead all types of content are better integrated into a single post. pretty neat, right?
…until you read the fine print.
i emailed support and asked whether each paragraph counts as a content block. i received this reply:
SO. each paragraph counts as a content block, and i’m only allowed 250 content blocks in one post. the solution provided was to reformat my fics by using shift+enter after every paragraph instead of simply enter. which is already unnecessarily annoying in of itself, but then you come to the second hurdle:
so–what?? besides spending my time writing thousands upon thousands of words, i’m expected to copy-paste it and then reformat everything, counting every single one of those words to make sure they fit within the restrictions? or i’m supposed to chop my fics up into multiple parts, even when i don’t want to? how exactly are writers supposed to write on this platform?? as you all know, my style tends to run pretty dialogue-heavy, so i start new paragraphs (and, thus, content blocks!!!) pretty damn often. i did a quick check, and let it snow, at almost 19k, is 550 paragraphs. with this new system, i would be forced to upload it in three (3!!!!!) posts! even my shortest chapter of ego, at 8.8k, is 350 paragraphs, and i’d have to split it in two.
this is honestly a formatting nightmare as a writer, and this is a decision that is liable to drive content creators away from the site and change fandom culture as a whole.
please. if you enjoy reading content on this site and want to continue enjoying content on this site, please don’t let tumblr make things harder for writers! since the tumblr team is supposedly eager to hear what everyone thinks, it would really help if you could message support and share your concern about the issue–maybe we can stop this disaster before it starts.
Vil destruindo tudo no overblot:
Yuu, com o celular: Que isso meu filho calma
Durante os treinos do SDC:
Jamil: *respira*
Yuu, com o celular: Dança, gatinho, dança

KAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKAKA ÓDIO
Melhor que eu sou a pessoa que sempre cozinha com fogo alto mas eu NUNCA queimei nada (exceto quando me distrairam e eu esqueci que tava cozinhando MAS A GENTE ESQUECE ESSA PARTE)
E a casa pode ter queimada mas a comida tá óia, uma delícia
Eu acho que a cabecinha do Lilia funciona assim quando se trata de comida: Se uma pessoa fica doente e sabendo que beber bastante líquido, tomar sopa e comer algumas frutas podem ajudar a aumentar a imunidade, então bater tudo isso junto no liquidificador deve criar o tônico anti-gripe mais poderoso de todos. Sinceramente, tadinho do Silver quando ficava dodói kbjk
I'm sorry for the cruelty of this picture, but I couldn't see Amina and not share her story. Trigger warning: eye injury (bloody eyes).
Amina Ghanem, 13 years old, says: We were sleeping and we heard the sound of tanks when they came and walked over the caravan in which I, my father and my siblings lived. The tank squeezed us inside the tin all night, and we were ran over, until the morning. And when they finally let us out, I found that my father and my little sister have been killed. Now we've been brought here.
She tells her story in this video with her little brother beside her. They're all on their own. Their mother is outside of Gaza and cannot get in or get them out. They have no way of communication, their father and sister are killed.
The eyewitness of Genocide.
Eu tenho certeza que o ace tá muito puto
I'll write a smut fic for the character who wins the battle royale
The IOF lies. It's inherently part of their zionist settler-colonial agenda -literally. They are not to be trusted -everything they say is meant to distort and distract people from what is really going on. This is just another example of this.
Anjo sei bem como é tbm não dou conta de falar com as Muié da recepção não por isso minha madrasta tava lá
E NOSSA O LEONA YUU IA TACAR A CHINELA ABENÇOADA NA CABEÇA DELE
Jack neném ia ser um anjo fazendo oque pudesse pra fazer a Yuu se sentir melhor mas AI se alguém ver ou ouvir, imagino muito ele segurando a mão dela mas se ele sequer ouvir alguém chegando perto ele já larga e fica tenso igual uma rocha
Tava tomando umas vacinas que eu tava atrasada e minha madrasta tava rindo do meu sofrimento (carinhosamente) e eu só consigo imaginar o Leona assistindo a Yuu com um enorme sorriso FDP enquanto ela toma vacina, Jack ia tá dando apoio moral ou tentando distrair ela pra ela não olhar pra agulha
Mona, tô enrolando pra ir tomar a quarta dose até hoje, e meu problema não é nem agulha. Eu só tenho uma ansiedade fudida, chegar na recepção e dar bom dia já deixa minhas pernas mole... QwQ
Que bom que deu tudo bem pra você ☺️
O Leona ia sorrir muito filha-da-putamente, sem dúvidas, ele ia ficar tirando onda dela, tipo, "você enfrenta Overblot todo mês e tem medo de agulha, minha filha?" O Jack já ia segurar a mão dela, e acho que ele ia choramingar que nem cachorro só pra fazer ela rir, mas se ela falar pra alguém ele vai negar até o fim do mundo. Eles vão estar casados com três filhos e ela vai contar isso pros filhos e ele vai dizer que é coisa da cabeça dela

People in Gaza have been saying this would happen since the very start, as soon as the occupation started corralling everyone into the southern part of the strip they said this would happen. We watched it happen as the “safe” zones grew smaller and smaller and every time Rafah was targeted by air strikes even before this. And no one who could actually stop this lifted a finger. It’s been 129 days.
