RANT ALERT
I love tumblr. I really do. It’s my go-to source for awesome stuff, and I’ve learned more in the time I’ve been using it than I did in all of high school.
But CHRIST ON A FUCKING BICYCLE, THERE IS A SPOILER ISSUE.
Seriously, people. Above and beyond tagging your shit, do you think we could maybe have some kind of WAITING PERIOD before we start posting gif and photosets of season-end spoilers? Like, could we maybe wait more than five fucking minutes after a show has ended before posting ALL THE THINGS? Or even - let’s go crazy! - more than a couple of weeks, on account of how we don’t all live in the same country and aren’t watching everything right at the same minute? And if you can’t wait, then can you put that stuff behind a big cut marked SPOILERS with the name of the film/show in question right at the top so that scrolling through my dash doesn’t mean watching the most crucial, surprising plot-reveals from EVERY SINGLE SHOW AND MOVIE ON MY WATCHLIST BEFORE I’VE ACTUALLY SEEN IT.
I mean, if the show/film/whatever is a few years old, that’s fine! There’s a statue of limitations on this shit. But I’ve seen gifsets go up on tumblr while an episode is still in the process of airing, or on the same day a major film is released, and it’s ragemaking, because all the important bits have already been ruined.
So, yeah. STOP WITH THE SPOILERING. IT IS REALLY NOT THAT HARD.
