#wiingedwolf

And today. 

Today there came another. 

A sworn brother burst through his solar doors, sweat dripping from his brows that was like to chill him if the boy lacked sense enough to remain within and his breath ragged as though he’d run down the length of the Wall. Then Jon heard the news and he understood. He should have known better. Not after Alys Karstark and the hope that’d fluttered in his chest like a bird in flight until its wings had been clipped the moment his eyes had lain upon that girl and that same hope had plummeted as dead weight to the ground.

SEND ME A ▲FOR AN UNPOPULAR OPINION.

I don’t know if this is an unpopular opinion since I have been seeing a few people hint or even openly saying the same thing for a while now, but it’s definitely a CONTROVERSIAL opinion: I am so sick and tired of this ‘receipt’ culture on Tumblr. Users are made to feel like they constantly have to walk on eggshells whenever they post an opinion, and have to recheck their posts several times before actually posting them to make sure they don’t receive hate.

This MOB MENTALITY is very tiring and one of the main reasons why I left my main blog, even though it was doing so well that I had over 60k followers. I have seen some of my friends get vicious hate for the most benign opinions. One of them left their blog like me after receiving threats for refusing a request from a blogger ( whom they had never met ) about reblogging one of the said user’s body positivity posts— even though she explained it wasn’t because she disliked body positivity, but simply because she didn’t like reblogging posts outside of her main fandom, which was Tolkien’s Legendarium. Another one received UNREAL amount of vitriol from half of the ASOIAF fandom for saying, wait for it, he doesn’t think Sansa Stark is an interesting character.

I haven’t been to the political / non-rp / fandom part of Tumblr for many months now so I don’t know if things have calmed down but judging by a few posts I see from time to time, it doesn’t look like it has. But I am really tired of this RIDICULOUS Tumblr mentality and truly hope that anyone who participates in these ‘online mobs’ gets a reality check very soon. It’s not okay to harass people ( and have your friends join in ) because you disagree with their opinions. Get real.
