#tumblr search is unhelpful

[izhunny]

look, tv shows need to start using less common words/phrases as titles cause I can't find stuff here and i need to find stuff

if i get invested in something i need to be able to find my people

#fandom problems #red rose 2022 Netflix #red rose 2022 #tumblr search is unhelpful #I'm only on ep 5 and i am INVESTED okay #is fandom gonna do the no spaces thing to separate itself from the common item??? #will they reliably add the year of release? will it be in parentheses or not? #will they add bbc3 or netflix after the title? #gah #horror thriller series #so far it's very engaging #redrose #redrose 2022 #red rose bbc3 #🤬

I'm looking for a piece of sambucky art

It was the two of them in the outfits from the "tough love" scene in tfatws (sam in grey, buck in blue), it had a mustard yellow background and Bucky was hugging Sam, squeezing him and lifting him up off the ground.

Similar to this pose:

It was definitely posted by the artist on tumblr and I think not long after the show aired.

Does anyone remember this?

:O do you know how you got all three boop badges? i can't find any definitive info

Oh ye!

You have to boop someone once to get the pink-white one, boop 314 times for the orange one, and 1000 times for the black one!

You can check your boop nos in the boo-o-meter, under the 'given' heading u.u!

More boops and the no the no in the boop-o-meter changes to words like max, lol, omg, tum blr, etc etc!!

Hope that helps :D Happy booping!!

#i saw some posts with more info but i can't find em rn :') ty tumblr search for being v unhelpful #will send em to you if i bump on them again!

So you know awhile back how i came up with bear alts? I really like bunnies and they are apart of my delusional attatchments. But bunny is taken so!!!!.

Would it be disrespectful if say, i did a specific breed ?

Kenochoric Bear alt - Harlequin Rabbits

Mspec lesbians/gays ( etc ) Bear alt - Lop bunny ?

Its okay if it is i just want to make sure.

Tagging ( hope its okay, if not lmk!! ) ;; @lil-toastie-boi @blood-moon-night-coining

#If those are already taken again i cannot tell because of tumblr and google's unhelpful search and i dont trust duckduckgo. #mod phantom mangle #mogai #liom #terms #Bear alts

had the worst migraine all day and I’m not being brave about it

#started typing this post into the Google search bar instead of tumblr if u want an idea of where my head’s at #also my housemate tried to repeatedly offer me unsolicited (unhelpful) migraine advice and I didn’t lose it on him so I deserve a medal for #that I think

thinking abt that one tweet(? tumblr post?) that was talking abt how kpop has to be inherently sexual in order to play into fans' fantasies (paraphrasing) but it cant be explicit bc [gestures to long list of reasons that im not equipped to discuss in depth] so they have to use these metaphors that are divided along the gender binary so girl groups always have songs like "come taste this sweet yummy dessert so sweet lalala" while boy groups are always like "i know you want to ride this fast car all night so fast riding all night vroom vroom" and i have not been able to unhear that whenever i listen to kpop now. i cannot unthink abt that post ever. i want a 100 page dissertation and 3 hour video essay abt the topic.

#like that bg example is literally 10 different nct 127 songs #it took everything in me not to just write lyrics to 2 baddies for that bg example bc thats what immediately came to mind #i know you wanna ride these wheels #anyway i cannot unremember this post #talk #text #mine #wish i could find the post rn but tumblr search was obviously unhelpful and twt didnt do me any better

#😭😭😭 #well i learned something new today at least. the title of this song is 'untitled' #and searching tumblr gifs for 'how could this happen to me simple plan' was very unhelpful #my writing #i feel like this is not the first time this has happened 😔

[lora-flora]

Anyone has that post that's like "the eastern european urge to eat your bodyweight in mandarins" cos I can't for the love of god find it and it's very vexxing

#lora laments #i think its one of your posts @fagcrisis but tumblr search's being unhelpful

Hey y'all, I saw a post a while back theorizing that Azula was actually trying to capture Aang with the intention to give Zuko credit and 'restore his honor' so that he could come back home. It gave some solid examples to back it up - the one I specifically remember is that before she faces Aang, she always sends Mai and Ty Lee away for some reason. Does anybody have a link to that?

#atla #avatar the last airbender #azula #avatar #zuko #obviously I tried searching for it on my blog on google and on the useless tumblr search feature but all unhelpful so #id like to add on to that analyzing the times that that happened one by one - im rewatching the series rn so

How to Tell If That Post of Advice Is AI Bullshit

Right, I wasn't going to write more on this, but every time I block an obvious AI-driven blog, five more clutter up the tags. So this is my current (April 2024) advice on how to spot AI posts passing themselves off as useful writing advice.

No Personality - Look up a long-running writing blog, you'll notice most people try to make their posts engaging and coming from a personal perspective. We do this because we're writers and, well, we want to convey a sense of ourselves to our readers. A lot of AI posts are straight-forward - no sense of an actual person writing them, no variation in tone or text.

No Examples - No attempts to show how pieces of advice would work in a story, or cite a work where you could see it in action. An AI post might tell you to describe a person by highlighting two or three features, and that's great, but it's hard to figure out how that works without an example.

Short, Unhelpful Definitions - A lot of what I've seen amount to two or three-sentence listicles. 'When you want to write foreshadowing, include a hint of what you want foreshadowed in an earlier chapter.' Cool beans, could've figured that out myself.

SEO/AI Prompt Language Included - I've seen way too many posts start with "this post is about..." or "now we will discuss..." or "in this post we will..." in every single blog. This language is meant to catch a search engine or is ChatGPT reframing the prompt question. It's not a natural way of writing a post for the average tumblr user.

Oddly Clinical Language - Right, I'm calling out that post that tried to give advice on writing gay characters that called us "homosexuals" the entire time. That's a generative machine trying to stay within certain parameters, not an actual person who knows that's not a word you'd use unless you were trying to be insulting or dunking on your own gay ass in the funniest way possible.

Too Perfect - Most generative AI does not make mistakes (this is how many a student gets caught trying to use it to cheat). You can find ways to make it sound more natural and have it make mistakes, but that takes time and effort, and neither of those are really a factor in these posts. They also tend to have really polished graphics and use the same format every time.

Maximized Tags (That Are Pointless) - Anyone who uses more than 10 one-word tags is a cop. Okay, fine, I'm joking, but there's a minimal amount of tags that are actually useful when promoting a post. More tags are not going to get a post noticed by the algorithm, there is no algorithm. Not everyone has to use their tags to make snarky comments, but if your tags look like a spambot, I'm gonna assume you're a spambot.

No Reblogs From The Rest of Writblr - I'm always finding new Writblr folks who have been around for awhile, but every real person I've seen reblogs posts from other people. We've all got other stuff to do, I'm writing this blog to help others and so are they, the whole point of tumblr is to pass along something you think is great.

While you'll probably see some variation in the future - as people get wise to obviously generated text, they'll try to make it look less generated - but overall, there's still going to be tells to when something is fake.

I don't have any real advice for what to do about this (other than block those blogs, which is what I do). Like most AI bullshit, I suspect most of these blogs are just another grift, attempting to build large follower counts to leverage or sell something to in the future. They may progress past these tattletale features, but I'm still going to block them when I see them. I don't see any value in writing advice compiled from the work of better writers who put the effort in when I can just go find those writers myself.

Very odd question but my brain has decided it must find your post about stays and Holly Mop being a titty gargoyle. (Tumblr's search function was...unhelpful)

Here you go!

Introducing: The Index

For a while now, I’ve been really bothered by how unhelpful the tumblr search function can be when trying to find specific pokémon posts I’ve done. So, I figured, what better solution is there than to spend WAAAAY too much time compiling a google document with links to every post? So here it is, the big thing I’ve been working on! This document has a link to all of my posts, sorted into the national pokédex, the regional pokédexes, and the 18 pokémon types. It also includes links to other types of posts, like evolution line spotlights and yearly top-10s. As I make more and more posts, they will be added to the document so that it stays up to date. If you come across any issues with it (and I’m sure there are, as there’s plenty of room for error with something like this), like misspellings, incorrect pokédex numbers, etc, please feel free to let me know in the comments on either this post or my pinned one (where the link to the doc will also be found). Anyway, it’s perhaps not super flashy, but it took a long time to make so I hope you find it useful if you enjoy the blog! Thanks for your patience!
