From the OP: "If you sit at a desk or stare at your phone all day, this is for you. Here's how to undo the damage: - Banded Chin Tucks - Strengthen your neck flexors and fight forward head posture - Banded Pull-Aparts - Target your rotator cuff and improve shoulder stability - Banded Abduction - Activate the midline of your scapula for better posture - Lateral Deltoid Raises - Build shoulder stability and control - Banded Up-and-Overs – Boost scapular mobility and range of motion These simple banded drills will help you stand taller, move better, and feel stronger - even after hours at a desk."

The plot:

When someone leaves some comments for you in the tags, it can be a difficult to find those nice comments again. Unlike a comment in a reblog, comments in the tags can be annoying to look back on because you have to go back to the reblogged post to see it. Maybe you missed someone asking to be on your tag list because you missed seeing that reblogged post, maybe someone said something really nice that made your day that you need to dig through to find again.

But there’s actually a way to see all tags on a post without skipping around! It took me way too long to figure this out, and I’m just making this little guide here because I’m sure there are other people who didn’t know about this too. 

*Note: This only works on computers.

Step 1: Click on the human on the top right of your dashboard, then go to settings.

Step 2: Go to the right hand side of your screen, and click on “Labs”

Step 3: Enable Tumblr Labs

Step 4: Scroll down, and enable “Tag Crawler”

Congrats, you’ve enabled the tag crawler!  Now go to one of your posts, and click on the notes.

Click the # in the little pop-up…

Voila, now you can see every single tag people have left on your post!

there are so many posts about ~tumblr is so broken, you can’t find any post on your own blog, it’s impossible, bluhrblub~

I am here to tell you otherwise! it is in fact INCREDIBLY easy to find a post on a blog if you’re on desktop/browser and you know what you’re doing:

url.tumblr.com/tagged/croissant will bring up EVERY post on the blog tagged with the specific and exact phrase #croissant. every single post, every single time. in chronological order starting with the most recent post. note: it will not find #croissants or that time you made the typo #croidnssants. for a tag with multiple words, it’s just /tagged/my-croissant and it will show you everything with the exact phrase #my croissant

url.tumblr.com/tagged/croissant/chrono will bring up EVERY post on the blog tagged with the exact phrase #croissant, but it will show them in reverse order with the oldest first 

url.tumblr.com/search/croissant isn’t as perfect at finding everything, but it’s generally loads better than the search on mobile. it will find a good array of posts that have the word croissant in them somewhere. could be in the body of the post (op captioned it “look at my croissant”) or in the tags (#man I want a croissant). it won’t necessarily find EVERYTHING like /tagged/ does, but I find it’s still more reliable than search on mobile. you can sometimes even find posts by a specific user by searching their url. also, unlike whatever random assortment tumblr mobile pulls up, it will still show them in a more logically chronological order

url.tumblr.com/day/2020/11/05 will show you every post on the blog from november 5th, 2020, in case you’re taking a break from croissants to look for destiel election memes 

url.tumblr.com/archive/ is search paradise. easily go to a particular month and see all posts as thumbnails! search by post type! search by tags but as thumbnails now

url.tumblr.com/archive/filter-by/audio will show you every audio post on your blog (you can also filter by other post types). sometimes a little imperfect if you’re looking for a video when the op embedded the video in a text post instead of posting as a video post, etc

url.tumblr.com/archive/tagged/croissant will show you EVERY post on the blog tagged with the specific and exact phrase #croissant, but it will show you them in the archive thumbnail view divided by months. very useful if you’re looking for a specific picture of a croissant that was reblogged 6 months ago and want to be able to scan for it quickly 

url.tumblr.com/archive/filter-by/audio/tagged/croissant will show you every audio post tagged with the specific phrase #croissant (you can also filter by photo or text instead, because I don’t know why you have audio posts tagged croissant) 

the tag system on desktop tumblr is GENUINELY amazing for searching within a specific blog! 

caveat: this assumes a person HAS a desktop theme (or “custom theme”) enabled. a “custom theme” is url.tumblr.com, as opposed to tumblr.com/url. I’ve heard you have to opt-into the former now, when it used to be the default, so not everyone HAS a custom theme where you can use all those neat url tricks. 

if the person doesn’t have a “custom theme” enabled, you’re beholden to the search bar. still, I’ve found the search bar on tumblr.com/url is WAY more reliable than search on mobile. for starters, it tends to bring posts up in a sensible order, instead of dredging up random posts from 2013 before anything else

You can also do an AND search for two tags at a time like this:

https://silveth.tumblr.com/search/#monkey island #fanfic

i like this a lot but feel the need to add one major caveat: any of these options that include url.tumblr.com/tagged/ only work if the person running the url.tumblr.com blog tags their posts.

if you’re looking for a post on someone’s blog and that someone didn’t tag the post with anything, you can try url.tumblr.com/search/croissant (if you think the word “croissant” was in the body of the post), url.tumblr.com/day/2020/11/05 (if you know the blog made or reblogged the post on november 5th, 2020), or url.tumblr.com/archive/filter-by/audio (if you know it was an audio post), but url.tumblr.com/tagged/croissant won’t get you anywhere because it ignores posts that the blog didn’t tag.

if that blog does tag things, you can use the url.tumblr.com/tagged/ options. however, depending on how many posts the blog has used that tag on, it may take longer than a few seconds to find the single post you’re looking for. i tag every post on my blog in case i want to find it later, so i can (and do) use howdydowdy.tumblr.com/tagged/[tag] extensively. but i have tags that i’ve used on thousands of posts, so even if i get all of the posts that use that tag to come up, i’ve got to narrow down the results, which can take a while.

Galinda: Look at you You’re beautiful.

Ariana Grande: There’s something baked into these roles that um these two very different women just fall completely, completely in love with each other and they love each other so much and that is mirrored experience of what happened between Cynthia and I, like we love each other so much and I feel very very grateful to have learned so much from her in a human level and obviously on a professional level.
