Chris pine bard and that sexy autistic paladin should have open mouth kissed in the dnd movie
in yet another failure to care about people sensitive to flashing, the new Scream movie ad includes aggressive flashing within a second of the ad starting. It seems to just be in the usual format of an ad, not one that haunts the background, but if you see the below at the top of an ad
go ahead and either exit the app or close your eyes and scroll. I was not able to get a screenshot of how the whole ad starts as there is, again, less than a second before the flashing starts.
really loving how people stopped caring about flash sensitivities lmao
anyway you should reblog this to warn your followers as well, I'd rather as few people have this violent surprise as possible
Posting for everyone to be on high alert in the coming week. Please stay safe everyone. Do not live in fear, but be cautious.
With vanilla extract being a meme, I wanted to share some black history of Edmond Albius a black slave who revolutionized vanilla pollination.
He used a technique he learned of pollinating melons to polinate the orchids to create the vanilla beans. Vanilla was rare and a luxury mainly due to only being able to be pollinated by its natural pollinator in Mexico.
unfortanely, he didnt receive any money for his discovery despite being called the main man who revolutionized pollination, he died in poverty...
everyone say thank you Edmond
This ABSOLUTELY works.
I have used this for many years. Definitely b do it.
This article was super long-winded so I screenshat the important part
Text: PSA to anyone with a tree nut allergy who frequents starbucks. We have a new drink called the pistachio cold foam cold brew and our pistachio sauce not only has real pistachio in it, the syrup sticks inside the blender and will 100% not fully wash off with the rinsers we use (its just water). I highly suggest if you want a cold foam drink during Jan-March you request it done in a sanitized blender to lower the chance of having a reaction if you are at risk.
The reason Tumblr was such an L for Yahoo wasn’t because it’s user base was so insufferable, but because Tumblr became a less popular media platform. Algorithm became more popular, creating content that people would literally crave, specifically tailored to them. And it’s a boon for advertisement. Twitter? Facebook? Instagram? TikTok? They’re essentially tailored billboards; sites dedicated to advertisement. What made Tumblr an L was the ban on NSFW and the inability to sell ads, not just the cultural disconnect between Yahoo and the platform. It literally lost some 1/3 of its traffic following the NSFW ban.
Yahoo bought Tumblr as the site was competing with other media platforms and slowly becoming obsolete. Asking why people don’t flock here anymore is like asking why people don’t use MySpace any more. There was a shift to different forms of media.
What made Tumblr an L was not the existence of an insufferable user base, but the loss of its user base.
Twitter? Twitter will never be an L for Musk. First, there is no cultural disconnect between him and the platform. Musk is the epitome of Twitter culture. Capitalistic. Reductive. “Edgy.” Cringe. Thinking he’s the smartest person in the room; a true intellectual. Offensively pseudo-ironic. Literally Twitter.
You want Twitter to be Musk’s L? Deactivate.
Deactivate your Twitter.
What will lose him money is a loss of users. It’s already a site optimized for ads and outrage and tailored content. It’s already a site tailored to his type of personality.
You want him to lose money?
Deactivate.
Make his pockets bleed.
already got a blazed marvel post. the adpocalypse is closer than we think so heres your daily PSA
don't interact with corporate tumblr accounts
yes even to dunk on them. i don't care if you have the sickest burn of the century lined up, don't even give them the time of day
the eventual and inevitable fall of twitter marks a change in the advertising industry, and tumblr is unclaimed territory. if we want tumblr to remain the social media bastion it has become, it needs to remain as unappealing to corporations as possible. do not engage. in a marketing strategist's eyes, any kind of attention is good attention. don't "silence, brand" them. don't kungpowpenis them. don't send them hate anons. don't hate-follow them. corporate tumblrs are not a single entity and they will not be harassed off this site. we only have a shot at repelling them because of tumblr's lack of an algorithm. so turn off recommended posts on your dashboard, put it chronological order, and install an adblocker. if you don't seek out these blazed posts and actively ignore them when they happen upon you, the corporations will starve. in this case, the best kind of protest is a silent one
So there's a scam/bot spam going around. Almost fooled me, but I got the same exact message on two seperate accounts.
I haven't put in the link into anything just in case. So yeah, be aware lads.
I got the msg and filled out the forum not knowing it was a scam, if anything happens I'll say it here. I've changed all my emails from the one I used in the forum
Edit: Oh god it doesnt matter if you change the email it still attacks- It deleted all the msges you can't msg anyone and they don't appear
Edit 2: OKAY so if you change the email and password right away everything goes back to normal and no damage is done! This is very important!
got one of these today. reblog to spread awareness.
hey everyone please remember that there are many conditions (what's going on in your head, around you, your experiences, etc....) that can make you more or less susceptible to certain scams at certain times, that's why they work, not because you didn't notice till it was too late how unnatural the message seemed. You're not stupid for falling for this.
Please stop trigger tagging with #epilepsy tw/cw/warning/etc.
I need every single person to understand how horrible tumblr’s tagging system is
I go into the tag for epilepsy and its all flashing lights. We can’t use our own tag because people without epilepsy fill it up with improper warnings.
Use ‘flashing’ in place of ‘epilepsy’ in your tags. You aren’t warning people of epileptics, you’re warning us of flashing lights. Please please tag properly. Epileptics say this endlessly and constantly and it’s ignored. You are risking lives by doing this.
Here’s proof of what I mean:
THIS POST IS 100% OKAY TO REBLOG, I ENCOURAGE PEOPLE WITHOUT EPILEPSY TO ESPECIALLY DO SO!
new flashing youtube ad just dropped. here's the first frame
you have exactly 3/4ths of a second before the flashing lights start. there are three bursts and each lasts just under half a second. they're red and black.
hope this is helpful. consider circulating this.
you’d think a huge company would be smart enough to know this is a bad move, but apparently not
THIS IS IMPORTANT TO SPREAD NORMALLY BUT ALSO HERE IS YET ANOTHER REASON TO SWITCH TO FIREFOX. IT HAS ADBLOCK EXTENSIONS BUILT IN. EVEN ON MOBILE. YOU NEED TO CLICK LIKE 3 BUTTONS TO ACTIVATE IT, SAVING YOU FROM THE NEED TO BE CONSTANTLY VIGILANT ABOUT EVERY YT AD THAT COMES UP.
The consequence of corporate greed
Tixati is a torrent service I like using as well, fairly sure they’re clean and their goal is to be safe, easy to use, and with low resource demand!
qBittorrent is another option
I agree, Tixati is much better than uTorrent. Please support them, they’re a great project.
I...tried to make a meme and got carried away and made A Thing that is like partially unfinished because i spent like 3 hours on it and then got tired.
I think this is mostly scientifically accurate but truth be told, there seems to be relatively little research on succession in regards to lawns specifically (as opposed to like, pastures). I am not exaggerating how bad they are for biodiversity though—recent research has referred to them as "ecological deserts."
Feel free to repost, no need for credit
Me going into the Tumblr tag for The Black Phone right after seeing it and it’s nothing but Ethan Hawke thirst posts
to my fellow usamericans….in light of the supreme court overturning roe v wade, well known organizations like planned parenthood dont need your money right now - they have plenty - if you’re going to donate, donate to your local or state abortion funds
happy PRIDE i’m here i’m queer and i believe the land should be given back to the proper indigenous stewards.
Non-Natives reblogging this are great and wonderful
Please remember that "land back" does not mean "indigenous people are mystical elves with innate epigenetic wisdom of land stewardship and they don't belong in big cities," nor does it mean "non-indigenous people can't be farmers." What it DOES mean is that "non-indigenous farmers should be paying the equivalent of property taxes to the native governments their land was stolen from." It means, "there's a great deal of indigenous scholarship on sustainable agricultural practices that farmers should be taking into account, because indigenous agriculture was more advanced than European agriculture at the time Europe invaded the Americas and western agriculture *still* hasn't caught up in terms of figuring out how to produce equivalently high crop yields without compromising the ecosystem." It means, "non-indigenous farmers should be in an intellectual discourse with indigenous agricultural scientists and indigenous peoples that still do traditional farming, figuring how to repair the damage western farming practices have done to the ecosystem."
If you are an LGBT+/queer person who pushed the anti-kink discourse you should be so fucking ashamed of being a walnut brained idiot. We fucking warned you that this was the logical conclusion of that discourse:

No more drag storytimes. No more kids at pride period. No more fun drag brunches. Christian fascists are doing their damnedest to criminalize being queer in any way shape or form. You dumb mother fuckers fell for their talking points hook line and sinker.
