I rarely run into spoilers and when I do, they aren’t enough for me to put the pieces together. So it’s not like I know exactly what’s going on or will happen. But you don’t see me complaining about being spoil either when I find out, because half the time it’s my fault. I continue reading the spoiler even when I knew where it was headed.
There are ways to avoid spoilers and that’s to stay off Tumblr when your favorite ongoing television shows is on. Majority of the time everyone will be liveblogging what they are watching and if you’re still on Tumblr while that’s happening then it’s your fault. No one is forcing you to follow those tags or staying on your dashboard as the blogs you follow post about it.
That’s how I’ve been able to avoid spoilers for all my favorite television shows. I just stay away from those tags during the time they are airing a new episode. If not then I wait until a day or two so that the fuss about it is over and it’s safe to get back on.
Also, there is an add-on that helps people not see spoilers on Tumblr and it is TumblrSavior. It’s available for Chrome, Safari, Opera, and Firefox (with Greasemonkey installed) which allows you to create a list of tags to exclude from your dashboard, so you can still follow all your favorite blogs the weekend that your favorite show is on. That means that you can be in your dashboard without the fear of being spoil by the blogs you follow because it blocks those tags.
