This thing is my child.

The reblog chain is one of the things that makes Tumblr unlike anywhere else. All the notes on reblogs are attributed to the original post, no matter which branch people actually liked or reblogged. We want to keep encouraging conversations, and give contributors the recognition they deserve. 

Soon, you'll be able to like, reblog, or reply to any part of a reblog chain, and that note will go to that reblog's author. Each reblog will have its own counts, instead of one aggregated number from every version of the post. And yes, you’ll be able to like multiple posts in one chain.

If a reblog doesn't add anything, the love flows up to the last person in the chain who did. Your post doesn't lose notes just because people spread it quietly.

Past notes will stay on the original post — we're only changing what happens from here on out. Retroactively re-attributing all of them would be... a lot.

We rolled out a significant change to how notes work on reblogs, and the reaction has been strong. We're not going to pretend otherwise. 

First things first: We're reversing the change. Your feedback in comments, emails, and especially reblogs, made clear that the rollout created problems we need to address before moving forward. We also should have communicated this differently from the start, and we didn't.

We still believe there's a better version of how reblogs can work. One that gives every voice in a chain the credit it deserves. But we want to get there with you.

In the coming days we'll share more on how we plan to do that,  including ways to work directly with some of you on this and future changes before they ship.

[ PT; please for the love of god if you hate the new update reblog this post ]

I am organizing a lights out protest on tumblr, from March 20th 6AM UTC until March 21st 6AM UTC. It is best if as many tumblr users as possible can join this protest, as a mass downtime in users is the only way the tumblr staff will listen to us.

If you cherish this hellsite, participate. Do your bit. Every person counts.

I document and a study pokemon with abnormalities, such as having the wrong type, an unusual ability, or pigmentation that is not a result of the shiny phenomenon.

(Yes the blog slow poke is real. That is an actual screenshot)

Current research team:

Indigo: the blue and green galarian slowpoke in my blog image. No health complications but we're not quite sure why He's that color

Brushfire: fire/grass brambalin. She knows several fire moves, and has health complications due to self ignition. Tera ghost energy helps to keep her healthy

Vyrate: two-headed flapple. Fairly healthy for her condition but we are taking precautions against a possible evolution.

Happy Valentine’s Day, my little papayas! 💌

I’m busy with DxP, but wanted to ask which “love confession” Pokémon you would give to your Valentine >u< I’m still mad that Luvdisc doesn’t evolve into Alolomola (when it’s the perfect / obvious choice! >o<) but look how cute it is! 💝

Hehe, anyone who’s read our Sword x Shield adventure which we ended up gifting each other 🤭

I wouldn’t be surprised if Ikrit, as a Hoenn-born man, would’ve given Ansy a Luvdisc as well while they were visiting during their engagement 0u0
