we have literally created our own dialogue? language? here on tumblr and i think that is the most amazing thing ever please disregard my shitty editing skills

no listen this is actually really amazing because this is a real thing. i think this counts as a pidgin language. a pidgin language is basically a changed, simplified version of a language. you can change the spellings of words, pronunciation, grammar rules, or even make up new words. i think. i’d have to research it a bit more to be sure but i’m 90% sure this is right. if its not a pidgin language, then its a lingua franca but thats more used for trade and stuff like that. but still a new language. so yes, we’ve created our own language. we’ve changed the whole sentence structure. we can trail off sentences, say things like “i just cant”, and use words like ship, OTP, fic, fandom, feels, and ship names and everyone will understand what you’re saying. the part that i love most is how people go “OMGH IM CRIIY NIG SOIOO HARD” and understand each other. for example “IM LIUA GHMNIG”. that one was incredibly easy, but if you knew that said “I’m laughing”, congratulations. You speak a pidgin language. we can even say stuff like “Does anyone know of a Johnlock fic, at least 20k words, not a WIP, with no OCs, and is Post-Reichenbach? Or just a Destiel PWP would be great.” To someone not on tumblr, that wouldn’t make any sense. but you understood, didn’t you? One characteristic of a pidgin language is that you have to learn it like a second language. Another characteristic is that it is frequently changing. tumblr goes through many trends with how we talk. if i remember correctly, when i first made an account about two years ago, talking like this wasn’t quite as common. also, that thing of suddenly capitalizing your sentence is fairly recent. you know, when people go “the new epISODE IS TOMORROW”. Like one of the people up there said, all of this is awesome because how else do you easily show emotion and tone over the internet? we’ve even made a whole sense of humour that most people here share in. There’s so much more that I could talk about with this, but i’m tired and i may be entirely wrong about everything. but yes. people on the fandom side of tumblr who speak like this are speaking a new language

It’s more amazing when you think that the new language was developed almost exclusively through indirect communication.

Man I wish I still had linguisitics classes because I am sure this totally counts as a pidgin language…

<sup> makes words go like thi^iiiis.

<sub> makes them do thi_iiiis.

<small> makes words go little. The more <small> you have the smaller the word.

Same thing applies with <big>.

<u> makes underlines.

Go here for Ｆｕｌｌ  Ｗｉｄｔｈ.

Of course these are just basic things.  You can also look at the HTML button for the codes if youre not up for searching through Google for them.

The button is here:

you betray the secrets of the trade

for those who never learned

<code> makes your text monospaced, <pre> puts your text in a grey box

More unicode text is available with these tools.

This tool provides you with characters that match what you draw.

This tool lets you draw in monospace ASCII which you can then put in <code> on Tumblr.

This tool makes big-ass letters with text. Everything but the AOL fonts require monospace (<code>).

After seeing the custom tumblr home buttons floating around, I decided I really needed a Homestuck-themed post dash.  And then I got carried away, as per usual.  I obviously can’t use six different themes at once, so feel free to install the Stylish plugin and download away:

Aspects | Kids | Lowbloods | Highbloods

Bonus level: Lowbloods and Highbloods in Alternian, for those who enjoy not being able to read their post bars!

Hey guys did you know

If you go to any tag on any blog and add /chrono to the end of the URL, it displays from first post to last, rather than showing the most recent first.

There is a God and her name is Leah.

payface:

1. Go to your tumblr blog
   
2. Scroll down to find the post where the reply is, clicking on the ‘number note’ icon
   
3. A drop down menu will appear on the post showing you the replies and likes on the post. 
    
   You’ll see the Reply speech bubble icon that’s collided and cluttered with tumblr’s ‘block’ icon. You don’t want that because you’ll have to squeeze through your cursor and move it until the speech bubble icon is hovered/hi-lighted over…
    
4. But wait! You can also install a script that separates the block and reply icon, by install this Stylish script! —> User Reply Fix
   
   Make sure to have both ‘Stylish’ and ‘Missing E’ to work!
   
   
   
5. Happy Blogging!

things tumblr needs:

• an option to lock the source, so that no one can change it and steal text posts
• an option to force someone to answer an ask privately when you send it
• hide posts if you’ve already reblogged them
• searching multiple tags
