Hedwig Helps

And now I can’t edit a post that I reblogged on their app? (I was going to add in my hashtags.) WTH? This better be just a snag in their system and aren’t actually changing it this way permanantly.

Immense thanks to @filiasusceptor​ for their help!

Asks only appear to not go through when there is only one character. I sent myself ‘this is a test’ with each word in a new ask.

Only these came back.

This may not apply to special characters/symbols such as ►! I sent myself three of those in succession as well:

Once again, all went through.

Tumblr may still be eating asks like it always has, but it is probably not as bad as we think. Just make sure your asks are more than a character long!

Wanna find a post?

Write out what you remember into a Google search.

After you write that out, end with site:tumblr.com

Google will search for your text on just tumblr

In my experience, it’s way more effective than searching through Tumblr

and then write a direct quote (could be a fraction of a sentence) into the quotations, I’ve been doing this for years, and it’s so useful, it works like 99% of the time 

Tumblr’s at it again, thanks to the new European Privacy Laws. There’s probably nobody who will read this, but it pissed me off so much that I decided to make a post about it. (Ignore the weird language mish-mash, depending on your country the language might differ.)

OK, so many of us get this screen when we try to access our dash:

Realise how the ‘OK’ button is a nice, attention-grabbing blue? If you’re like me, you’re not exactly into reading a 100 pages document and tend to just click it.

My tip? DONT. Instead click on ‘Manage Options’ right next to it:

Now you’ll see this page:

Still pretty harmless, right? That ‘Accept’ button is looking really attractive right now. Instead, click on Verwalten (Probably something like ‘Manage Options’ or something in english) and you’ll get to this page:

Now that’s not too bad, right? I just switched all the buttons to ‘off’, because I’m jealously guarding my personal information and don’t want Tumblr to go off and do who knows what with it. Looks like we’re done! But wait: There’s a SHOW option.

When we click on that one, what we will get is this:

A HUGE list with OVER 300 ENTRIES of companies that can use your data by default if you’d just clicked ‘OK’ on that very first page. Coincidence that this list is hidden that much? Me thinks not. They’re all switched on by default, but I am still a petty bitch that doesn’t want to give out her data, so I switched them all off. All 300+ of them. There is no option to switch them all off at once, and even if you disable all the options above, the companies are still switched on.

A character/network/bias list that you can easily paste to fit inside your already existing theme. Works well for those who would like to display things in a fancy way but don’t want to make a custom page. I’ve made two versions. One for 500px themes and another for 400px. 

steps for using this code

Copy one of the above codes in and paste somewhere in between <style type=“text/css> and </style> in your theme.

Save your theme.

Create a new page in standard layout mode

Select html mode and paste this code 

tips

I’d suggest doing all of your editing in the html mode

Try to keep quotes/descriptions short. It’s not meant for long bios

I don’t have any guides on that in specific. I do have a guide on writing a transgender character and another one specific to masculine transgender identities. Both of those have a bunch of useful information in them, especially when it comes to what terms you can use and what terms not to use. I also have a diversity challenge that’s full of information on the general topic.

The first thing you need to remember is that transgender people are just people; I know you don’t want to be offensive (and the idea of accidentally offending someone is daunting), but focusing on the differences between a cis character and a trans character could lead you in that direction. I’ll list a few things for you to remember, but the most important thing is to treat them the same as you would treat any cis character. 

The one thing you really have to remember when writing a transgender character as they shed their clothing is that there is probably at least one thing there that is specific to their transformation and shouldn’t be ignored. Trans man? Then you have to consider whether they had top surgery or not, and whether they’re binding if the answer is no. There are also things like packers and such that might be present. Trans woman? Then does she have a flat chest, an estrogen inflated chest, implants, or does she stuff a bra? Did she have bottom surgery, does she tuck it, or is it hanging proudly au natural? Nonbinary trans people exist too and they can come with any of these questions attached to them as well.

Everyone is different. That’s right, not all trans people are going to be able to give you the same answers to this question, because not all trans people have the same preferences. I’ve seen trans people call their downstairs mixer anything and everything from prince/ss parts to full on scientific anatomy terms. Dysphoria is a bitch, but it isn’t for everyone. Some trans people love their anatomy and they don’t care what it’s called. Some trans people do not like their anatomy at all and prefer more vague terminology– or some one thing they’ve decided upon. How does your character feel about their body? Do they love it? Do they hate it? Would they prefer something cute like prince/ss parts or would they prefer something like aggressively gendered like macho machine or femme flower? The only thing you want to specifically avoid when it comes to terminology is stuff like…. a trans girl calling her who-ha “boy parts.” They’re not boy parts. They’re whatever the hell she wants them to be, but they aren’t specifically gendered in a cissexist way. Dicks aren’t just for boys. Genitals do not equal gender. It is, however, possible for a transgender character to be confused and use the wrong terminology. Not every transgender character is educated and that’s sad but normal. Just don’t pass their cissexist/transphobic thoughts off as truths, explicitly state that they are their own misguided thoughts. And that would give you the chance to learn about being transgender as well, through the eyes of your character as they learn too. Maybe plot with someone to make that happen. 

Once you’ve figured out terminology, it’s time to think about how they’re going to feel emotionally and how they’ll respond physically. Are they shy? Will their dysphoria hit? Are they comfortable with their partner? This is the same question you’d approach with any cis character– what are their thoughts on sex and how do they respond to having it? Are they rigid? Are they uncomfortable? Are they tense? Are they fluid? Are they having so much fun they can’t think about anything else? Dysphoria who? Where do they fit on this scale of comfort? Being transgender will affect how they approach sex, it will come up either from their partner or from their own mind, but it doesn’t have to be negative and it doesn’t have to completely rule the scene. It really just depends on what your character feels about sex and about being vulnerable like that.
