thegrumpiestoldman-deactivated2 asked: question for you: why the tag #shut up rebornica?
that’s for people to blacklist if they dont want to see my personal posts
OH… well fuck them, then.
dude
some people don’t want personal posts on their dash
they’re fucking allowed to have their dash be the way they want it
really? too much to just scroll on past something that you don’t want to read? it needs to be completely erased?
I see posts I don’t care to see every day, I just scroll on past them, and no one has to do anything. Are personal posts really that offensi.. oh right… I forgot…
This is Tumblr, everything’s offensive.
its not that it’s offensive it’s not even that i follow alot of blogs somewhere around 109 and content gets clustered on my dashboard i prefer not to see peoples personal posts cause its not my business and without xkit i would usually scroll past it but with xkit i blacklist it and i dont have to even look at it so its not about something being offensive i just dont want to see it clustering up my dashboard.
It’s not offensive at all, actually.
That’s the whole point of tags on tumblr, really. To refine content to what you want to see, what you don’t want to see, what you’re looking for, and what you’re not looking for.Saying “just scroll past them” is really inefficient. lmao it’s not about being offended.
That’s like saying people shouldn’t refine their google searches because searching “food” brings up tons of unwanted results, whereas something more refined like “macaroni and cheese recipes” will get you to what you’re looking for and will help you avoid all the unnecessary content you don’t want to see. They are literally designed to save youfrom having to “just scroll past it”.
ye ^^^ what josey and miss shadow said ouo/
People have the right to have their dash the way they want it. It’s their dash. Who are we to judge them?

Checklist for character development.
Created by myself, compiled from questions gleaned from several sources, and some of my own additions.
It should be noted, that not every character will check every one of these things off. It is not REQUIRED to have all this information, but this checklist is, rather, a guideline for helping you think of your character as an entire, three dimentional being with thoughts, feelings, possessions, contradictions and background.
A character is 20% revealed to the reader, 80% writer/author/Mun knowledge. What the Reader sees is just the tip of the iceburg, but without the other 80% the character can’t help but come off feeling shallow. There’s nothing beneath the surface - KNOWING as much bout your character as possible, instrinsicly, in detail, intimately, can do nothing but help build believability and dimension to your character.
Use only the things on this list that you feel are important, but I would like to remind you that the reader learns a lot about a character NOT through exposition (that’s kind of a cheat, and always feels , to me, like a rather clunky way of conveying knowlege), but through their actions, quirks, thoughts, and even through the things they own and carry with them. What kind of food they eat and how they eat it. What they wear. What they carry in their wallets. I encourage you, as writers, to consider these things when creating a character, and encourage you MORE to leave the exposition out and tell us about your character through these other means!
If nothing else, this will give you a LOT to work with when writing with your character. Maybe it’ll spur you to write about the character’s parents. Or the relationship between them and their family. Maybe you’ll find yourself inspired to write something about how they lost everything in a fire - and the importance each remembered lost item held.
There is certainly no rule that says you HAVE to do it this way, but invariably, the most memorable characters are the ones that we as readers can relate with. It’s hard to relate with just words - but people - with beliefs and dreams and fears - that’s something we can get behind.
I certainly hope you find this useful, and since so many have been inclined to reblog and like this, I shall endeavor to add more character creation and writing tips, lists and excercises up on this blog!
I think this is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.

Every writer need this kind of sheet.
