im pretty sure its just the good amount of new gen tumblr users in the total drama fandom, which like, so glad you guys are here <3, but ive seen this on my and many other blogs I follow that many users do not Reblog posts, only Like them and im just gonna assume the Tumblr Etiquette for Newbies posts just havent breached this fandom lmao

So gentle PSA

Likes on Tumblr do not act the same as Likes on Twitter or TikTok, Tumblr has no algorithm, and Likes do not supply an Artist, Writer or funny post creator anything that a Like on Twitter or Tiktok would

On these other Social Medias, Likes tell the algorithm that people really like this one post, and the algorithm will show this one post to even more people who Like it. This is what spreads art, writing, ect around the Social Media and are what let the Original Poster know that people are enjoying their content enough to want other people to see it :D With Likes you are spreading a work of art you enjoy, a funny joke, or nice fic around to new viewers who may have not seen it without your Like

Likes on Tumblr do not do this

Tumblr is a reblogging platform, there is no algorithm besides the dubious "Suggested Posts" page and that in itself is buggy and primarily runs of tags it sees you interact with and not specific posts

It does tell the OP you enjoy their post a little, but Tumblr is based around Reblogging. A Like without a reblog means you like it sure, but its not building a post, and its not spreading it to new viewers :/ In order to use Tumblrs UI correctly, you need to reblog posts.

If your worried that it will mess up your blogs vibe, or character, or you just want to keep your blog as posts only made by you, a very common practice is a reblog dump blog! These are side blogs made for the sole purpose of reblogging posts, so they dont clog up a specialized blog (ie character roleplay blog, art blog) but still give other tumblr users reblogs! I use one of these :)

I’m also running with the theory that Bolaire knows something else about Thjazi that he’s not sharing and that’s why he’s being Like That

So is that what Bolaire knows? That Thjazi accidentally closed the doors?

But then this combined theory starts to fall apart because how would Bolaire find that out in the first place

And also… does that mean they were just… mutually blackmailing each other??? Thjazi said “I know you’re a god-killing mask from 70 years ago” and Bolaire said “I know you caused the doors to Faerie to close” and then they just???? Kept it moving???

But now Thjazi is dead so like… why isn’t Bolaire sharing with the class, this feels like a pretty important piece of information, and I can’t bring myself to believe that any consideration he has for the feelings of Hal, Thimble, etc would outweigh the significance of this very damning very crucial fact

Maybe this specifically isn’t what Bolaire knows, but I definitely do think he knows something else about Thjazi that he’s not sharing

man
