Blog to yap about my life,idk.

I need every single person to understand how horrible tumblr’s tagging system is

I go into the tag for epilepsy and its all flashing lights. We can’t use our own tag because people without epilepsy fill it up with improper warnings.

Use ‘flashing’ in place of ‘epilepsy’ in your tags. You aren’t warning people of epileptics, you’re warning us of flashing lights. Please please tag properly. Epileptics say this endlessly and constantly and it’s ignored. You are risking lives by doing this.

Here’s proof of what I mean:

Make a dump sideblog titled some variation on “flashing tag” or “retagging”

Go into any epilepsy tag

Go over posts and reblog flashing ones to side blog with correct tags

Assuming you’re not the only one doing that, it’s most efficient to go for Newest. You can also temporarily block flashing tags so you don’t see ones that someone already tagged correctly

You can actually prepare whole block of text with commas and add umpteen tags with one copy-paste. Like so:

“#flashing” is for light patterns causing seizures. “#epilepsy” is for epileptics talking epilepsy, flashing, tw flashing, flashing tw, NOT #tw epilepsy

(In activity notifs, not-bundled tags-only reblogs show beginning of the tags. If you want to relay some message to your prevs, put these tags on the very beginning.)

Edit:

Apparently Tumblr system is dogshit inconsistent enough that with having #flashing, #tw flashing, #flashing tw – all blocked, I still go into #tw epilepsy tag and see posts that I myself personally reblogged with these blocked tags.

So. Sweet. Very helpful. Makes me wonder why there’s shitton of money being put on societal levels in flagging and hiding so-called “mature” content, but we cannot put a fraction of that cash into flagging eyestrain and stroboscopes that way. But I digress

i do get scared when a popular account follows me. i feel like a jester trying to entertain the royal family

I LOVE ALL MY MOOTIE PATOOTIESSS
