Tumblr Roleplay ; what the hell happened?
No seriously? What happened? I’ve roleplayed on tumblr for close to six years now. That’s right, I remember the days of giant gifs, zero-formatting to your posts and THE most basic layouts in a theme ever known to man. Container themes were a distant dream (or curse lmao) and duplicates / AUs / hilarious OC’s and the like all lived in harmony.
You played a villain? AWESOME.
You played a hero? AWESOME.
Your content was 18+? YOU DIDN’T HAVE TO TELL ANYBODY CAUSE NO ONE CARED.
You liked your eggs with a side order of SMUT? FUCK YEA.
You didn’t wanna smut? THAT FINE TOO, FAM.
A ship was literally just a ship and not a fucking marriage? LOL YEA
You didn’t wanna ship with that guy ‘bob’? HE’S FINE WITH IT!
Your writing was a mixture of *—* and crack? YEA WHATEVS FAM, ROCK IT.
Outside of rping you have a real life and could take weeks off at a time without people hounding you for replies? DAT COOL FAM - IT’S A HOBBY AFTERALL.
Honestly - RPing was literally a hobby. We all wrote our terrible fanfics and nobodies male character had a dick smaller than ten inches because y’know, it was YOUR world and you made it perfect for yourself. Conflict was so rare. People were much nicer.
what happened? like for realsies? what
So; I run multiple blogs - I do this because I love multiple characters. Lately, I have seen people actually complain about doing this. Like, WHY????? It’s none of your business???
I’ve seen people moaning about muns playing white, cis characters over minorities???? WHY???? again, none of your business - there is no sexist, racist, homophobic etc agenda behind the character somebody plays lmao - you are CLUTCHING AT STRAWWWSSSS
People have been THROWING around the terms ‘problematic’ and ‘toxic’ lately like they’re a hot fucking pair of potatoes. You’re problematic if you want to roleplay darker themes ???? last time I checked authors wrote that sorta shit all the time. People get mad about what is and isn’t tagged. People get mad at people for getting mad over what is and isn’t tagged.
People LITERALLY harass one another - like, they bombard each other with shitty messages or IN MY CASE - they message their followers trying to stir up shit.
YOU GUYS - WHEN DID IT BECOME SO SERIOUS????
WE’RE LITERALLY A BUNCH OF TWENTY-SOMETHINGS PRETENDING TO BE OUR WAIFU’S ONLINE. CHILL THE FUCK OUT. HAVE SOME FUN.
SWEET HOLY PRECIOUS BABY JESUS.
WRITE YOUR FAVOURITE SHIT - UNFOLLOW PEOPLE WHO BUG YOU - JUST HAVE SOME DAMN FUN
