Things to know about SOLC:

-Everything is posted anonymously whether it’s sent in that way or not, and I don’t keep track of any names even if you do send it un-anon (unless you are trying to pick a fight with me).

-The opinions expressed here do not reflect that of the blog owner. Don’t send me anon hate about any confessions posted, I don’t care.

-If you decide you don’t like us anymore, just unfollow, a break-up letter is not necessary.

-I will not advertise your site, especially if it has nothing to do with Dexter. Please stop.

-Please don’t ask me to follow back.

-If the Ask Box is closed, it’s for a reason. Do not send confessions as Fan Mail, they are automatically deleted, no matter how mind-blowing.

-If you have a suggestion for a Dexter “quizzy time” question, feel free to send that in (these can be sent through Fan Mail if Ask is closed).

-If you have a question about something that’s happened on the show, feel free to ask. I have a pretty good memory of pretty much everything that has happened so far, running this blog keeps it all fresh in my mind.

Ask Box Confession Rules (you send a text confession in the ask, and I make the picture):

We recieve quite a few confessions, and since I do not have infinite amounts of time to make graphics for every single one, I need to be a bit picky. If you want to have a better shot at getting your confession posted, listen up!

• Before sending a confession, please look to see if something extremely similar has been posted. It’s no fun seeing the same thing over and over again, it just clogs up my inbox. Like “They should have killed LaGuerta like they did in the first book”. I get that like once a day, and i’d really like to see less of it.

• Don’t send in the same confession 10 times every other day just because I didn’t make the graphic after 5 minutes. That’s a pretty good way to have all of them deleted.

• Barbie, be patient. Don’t send me messages asking when your confession will get made. There is so much in the inbox already, and I can only make so much in a day without burning myself out on this show. If you keep bugging me about it, the answer is “much longer than it would have taken if you hadn’t bothered me”.

• Don’t send spoilers for episodes that haven’t aired into my inbox. Seriously, that’s fucked.

• Be creative. Don’t just say “I like Dexter”, tell me why you like him. By the same token, if you can’t fit your whole confession into one ask, I can’t fit it into one graphic, so do some editing before you send it along.

• “Dexter is a serial killer that lives in Miami” is not a confession, it’s a statement of fact.

• Stay coherent! If I can’t figure out what your confession is about, I won’t make it.

• Complete thoughts please. If I feel like I’m only getting part of a message…

• Don’t send in really mean-spirited and hateful, racist, sexist, or downright stupid confessions (ie “Dexter makes me poop”) or tell me you’re going to start killing people, or are trying to work up the nerve to. Dexter can kill all the people he wants because, ya know, he’s fictional. You, however, are not, so don’t do that shit. Even if you’re kidding, it’s not cool and makes me uncomfortable, and when people who haven’t seen the show see shit like that on their dash, it makes them go “damn, I had heard it was good, but I’m not gonna watch that show now because obviously their fans are fuckin’ creep jobs”. Same goes for “I want Dexter to kill me”, that confession is retired. If you feel that strongly about it, reblog one from the archives.

• Stop telling me MCH and JC need to get back together and make babies. They like to keep their personal shit personal, and I completely respect that. What if people were making pictures of you and your ex say “zomg, dey were so stupid to break up, dey need to make babiez and that’s an order!”. That would be annoying right? Exactly. Also, I don’t keep track of who anyone dates, so don’t ask me that either.

• I am not a psychologist. I’m sorry that you are feeling so lost and wish I could help, but I am not qualified to diagnose you with any sort of disorder or tell you what medication you should be taking, so please don’t ask me to. If you are truly concerned about your mental health, the best advice I can give is for you to seek out a counselor or therapist who you can speak to in depth about your whole situation, and can give you real help. Tumblr is not the place for that.

Picture Submission Confessions (you make the graphic or suggest a photo for your confession):

The rules above regarding content also apply here. This is not a way to get us to post creepy shit.

• If you’re sitting there thinking “Man, you know what this blog needs? A picture of my penis.” it may come as a terrible shock, but no, it doesn’t.

• If you are going to make your own graphic, please make sure that spelling and grammar are correct, the text is completely legible, and that the picture is at least 500 px wide.

• You may submit a picture as a suggestion to use with your confession, just make sure it’s of decent quality and size (at least 500 px wide). If I can’t use it, and can’t think of a where to get a better quality version off the top of my head, I just pick something else.

• Make sure your picture has a confession attached. Unless you are sending me something rare (which I will appreciate very much, but will not feel inclined to ever post), chances are i’ve seen it already. Especially if it was a dvd cover, c’mon folks.

-Thanks!!
