Posting here to see if anyone knows it.

Also, maybe you could try searching gallavichthings.tumblr.com/tagged/videos ?

what I did was copy the test of the caption I wanted to keep, deleted everything, and then put that original caption back in. Not sure if it's the "right" way to do it, but it's all I could think of because YEAH SO ANNOYING.

comradeocean replied to your post “tl;dr”

the way I did it before this update was to copy what I wanted, remove reblogs, then paste as caption. the method worked pretty well until this update, which strips the links/blockquote formatting, making it hard to properly attribute what I'm copying

Yeah, I can see how that might be a problem. She does have other suggestions that complement the 'spark joy' evaluation - like whether you would pick the piece out in a store now (so pretend you are shopping). I found that quickly trying on the clothing also helped me decide. I also told myself before I started that if there was anything that was especially hard to evaluate I could just keep it and not deal with it - a free pass - but I didn't end up doing that at all. Once I got started it was surprisingly easier than I anticipated. I was surprised at how many things I liked once that I decided to get rid of because they no longer work for me now. Also, I had so much guilt tied up in my clothes! It really helped to be able to say thank you with those ones. Also maybe thinking about joy blunted the impact of all the other feelings? 

1. Disclose one item on your blacklist, if you have one. (hypothetical if you don’t) 

Erm libertarianism, Diet Coke, stonewash denim. 

2. I am very nosy about people’s work habits so… What is your work space like? Is it regular/stationary? Do you have a view? Posters up? What’s on it at the moment?

My work space is basically my preferred seats in my preferred rooms in various libraries around London. I need them to be relatively airy. I don't work well at home because that place is for relaxing and telling bad jokes with my boyfriend and flatmate. 

3. If you could change a plotline in your favourite tv show, what would you change?

Dummmmmmm I'd change Sybil dying in Downton I guess. I'd DEFINITELyyyyy have changed the Gendry storyline holyyyy shit. 

4. The last three things you googled.

"heartburn NHS"

"pain when swallowing"

"signs of lung cancer"

(I have hypochondria) 

5. Do you have seasonal movies - ones that you associate with a particular time of year for whatever reason? Tell me about it! If not, then about any piece of media you have some specific kind of temporal … connection with.

For Christmas it's the Nightmare Before Christmas and Elf. Other than that nope!  

6. What was a food item you really liked when you were little?

Liver and onions and tinned hamburgers (really)

7. In a similar vein, your favourite quick and easy recipe right now.

SANDWICHES. I live on sandwiches right now. I don't have time to cook, and even if I do, I find it too exhausting. Plus sandwiches can come with me to the library. 

8. What was your worst transportation/travelling experience?

I suppose when I had a panic attack on my own on a flight to Scotland when my brain decided that nope, even after years of travelling via air/having taken flying lessons when I was younger (my Dad = part time pilot) I had fear of heights. 

9. Is there anything you’re looking forward to?

Seeing my dogs in a few days. 

9. Do you have a favourite or recommended interview? (of whatever format, on whatever subject) Link it if possible!

Nope... [I'm pretty uncultured I don't read the newspaper enough]

11. What is the best television pilot or finale of all time?
