Fatting in the wild.
Snapchat has me looking like a Cool Facebook Mom™ and I’m unironically here for it.
Sold out concert fatshion.
I gave the Pallas Cat the #UnscienceAnAnimal treatment.
Romanticize obesity. Glorify obesity. Glamorize obesity.

Wow you’re disgusting. Please go fuck yourself
You’ve built a sad little brand for yourself based on appropriating other people’s existence to abuse them for your own amusement and enrichment. You and shitty little followers can rot in the hell of your own making. *aggressively bedazzles all the obesity*
Feeling miserable, but still trying to rock the #snazzlefrump.
For those afraid of deletion.

Tumblr is not a place, it’s a people.
Snazzlefrumping the death of Tumblr.
It’s quite likely no coincidence that that most ‘mismanaged’ and least profitable social media site is also the one that turned out to be most amenable to the formation of actual communities
To clarify, Tumblr is indeed horribly mismanaged, but notably, it’s mismanaged both in ways that harm us (e.g. doing little about pornbots, nazis, etc.) and ways that have greatly benefited us – not asking for real names, hiding our follower counts, a chronologically-sorted dashboard, etc. are big draws, but in the eyes of other social media monarchs, they look like unforgivable mistakes. If I don’t have to give my real name, that’s that much less information to sell to advertisers. If posts are listed chronologically, Tumblr can’t shove the posts of ‘influencers’ in front of me willy-nilly. Tumblr was a ‘success’ because it was too poorly managed to sufficiently atomize us, and so we actually had conversations and communities instead of being the best products for advertisers.
as someone who wrote my dissertation on tumblr and community: consigned. there’s a reason people talk about facebook as a tool for keeping up with people they already know, and tumblr as a place for forming new connections, and it’s that where other social media is specifically built to profit off of sticking as many virtual tendrils into your offline life as possible, this place lets you generally just be the person you came here to be. the fact that tumblr has built such a great space for community by making decisions that are ultimately bad for their business is a great illustration of how the negative social impacts of social media giants are because of capitalism, not inherent in the category of technology.
Ya know. I’m starting to wonder if maybe this fancy algorithm actually sucks. @staff
I can’t find any way to see what posts are flagged. I have to scroll through LITERALLY THOUSANDS OF POSTS manually and request review on each of them individually.
You can’t even dispute reblogs at all. If an OP has left the site and gotten flagged, all of those reblogs get wiped out and you can’t do anything about it.
@staff should have just deleted the site since its clearly the outcome they’ve engineered.
