남무행알⁷

If you’ve grown up or spent enough time online, you develop a sense of vibes. When the vibes are bad, trust that sense. Get rid of them. Stop them interacting with you. Stop them interacting with your posts.

It is better both for you and them. This is not “living in a bubble” or closing yourself off to criticism, it’s normal human behaviour. When you find someone unpleasant and stressful, you don’t interact with them. You don’t need a stranger to yell at you online to motivate you to improve yourself - if anything, yelling strangers only makes self-improvement more difficult and way less likely. The result of strangers yelling at each other is everyone ends up angry and defensive, and everyone entrenches further in whatever they already believed.

Block. Block on vibes. Block on sight. Block for no reason except you feel like it. Curate your online space the same way you curate your real life space. Be tolerant of differences, but don’t go out of your way to expose yourself to people and situations that make you miserable.

Do not, I repeat, do not repost/reupload/retouch/rewrite our work. We suggest you to reblog instead. It's a win-win solution! We gain visibility, while your blog won't be flagged as a bot. Also if you're still too shy to say hi, leave something in tags. Some of us read them like newspaper!

And if you see us self-reblogging our work, it's one of our ways to let people know (esp for those who live in different timezones) that we just post something. It's a common practice on Tumblr, but if you feel annoyed, feel free to block the tag (a few of us put something like sr/self reblog in tags).
