Ppl dying their hair and wearing ‘punk’ clothes & having social cause pins but being visibly repulsed by homeless, broke &/or disabled people is embarrassinggg. I’m already goin outta my way to show ppl im not gonna sacrifice their dog to the devil. You are making this harder for me

Hauling my disabled ass up when someone asks for a seat on the train because one of the alt queers gotta. People take note of who helps them and who pretends they don’t exist. Dressing like someone cool doesn’t automatically make you cool, you gotta do the actions! What’s the BLM pin on your bag mean if you treat an old black woman asking for help like she’s an annoyance that will disappear if you ignore.

Obviously queer punk lookin kids are not the main group treating others like shit; I’m addressing them here because they are, theoretically, my peers. If you want a punk appearance to mean anything these days you gotta back it with action, being nice to people who are societally treated like shit will make you stand out more than clothes ever will

Next viral tumblr blorbo: giant old as fuck tadpole

“LIKE” to vote for Old As Fuck Tadpole

i knew life turned to shit when i stopped seeing the tuesday again? no problem dog every week

i hope your tuesday is fine

between it being pride month, all of the reddit blackouts and oceangate.. subs have a lot going on right now

The circle is complete:

1898: Morgan Robertson's novella "The Wreck of the Titan" is published.

1912: RMS Titanic hits an iceberg and sinks, in an event that almost beat-for-beat follows the plot of Robertson's novella.

2023: Oceangate's experimental submersible The Titan undergoes explosive decompression while retracing the descent of the Titanic.

NOW STOP NAMING THINGS THAT

I get why people are talking about the whole submarine titanic thing.

It's awful.

But I'm here to address a different boat related tragedy.

One that absolutely breaks my heart.

Where a boat of migrants sank off the coast of Greece.

This boat had 300 Pakistanis and more than 500 Syrians.

The boat was carrying migrants from Afghanistan, Pakistan, Syria and Egypt who were fleeing their countries dire economic conditions.

And we're trying to reach relatives in Europe.

What happened with the submarine is a terrible thing.

I just wish this story got the same coverage.

One is about billionaires the other about people escaping economic disasters.

Both about people losing their lives.

Having your own personal blog is honestly quite a nice change of pace compared to Reddit. I could put a funny GIF of George Bush getting hit by a shoe on here and the worse case scenario is that no one even notices.

You put that on a big subreddit and you get your eyes gouged out and a heap of political discourse underneath your post.

YOU HEAR THAT EVERYONE??? I’M A LIL GECKO BOY

48hr tumblr blackout proposal

tumblr mobile has seadily become near unusable these past few updates. not just from a user experience perspective (which is important enough in itself) but also from an accessibility perspective.

examples include the new way the image viewer works (if you can call it "working"), the tumblr live button replacing the profile button, and that newly created blogs will be forced to have their main dashboard tab be the 'for you' page.

the demands of the protest would be along the lines of:

to protest against these usability issues, and inspired by the recent reddit blackout, i propose a 48 hour blackout (where you don't use tumblr at all). preferably of both mobile and web (since web has problems too) but mobile is the focus here.

I suggest the 48 hours between the 30th of June to the end of the 1st of July.

this marks the end of pride month (for the "queerest place on the internet") and the start of disability month (since accessibility is a massive issue here).

tumblr office is in San Francisco, USA, so the times and dates will be calculated using their time zone (PDT).

you can find out the times and dates for your timezone here.

i can't afford to blaze this post so please spread it around as much as possible! protests only work if significant numbers show up!

tumblr rejected the blaze campaigns for this post because they know it would hurt them. let's make this an indefinite blackout - it's the best way to get results.

(so the blackout would be from June 30th onwards)

staff statements, politician answers, disconnect

i do have to premise, many staff-involved posts are going to be from cyle's blog or written by him. some have other staff contributing to the answer! but he appears to be a sort of main front-end developer, so he's quite literally the most visible staff member, to me at least.

thanks for your feedback! no.

make it accessible? nah, no thank you.

empty words and a cash grab

I have seniority, tough luck! 🤷‍♂️

your gif quality sucks now? here's a solution to a completely different problem :)

getting their disconnect called out

disappointment w disconnect and attitude w older users.

discussion on transparency

asking for forever? list plz :)

further disconnect

issues w reblog chains

thought it was a bug. it is not.

deep dive

feedback on functionality

layout issues:

unintuitive

changes are needed, not this one

insight on ui changes

inconsistencies and broken ui

issues w video/picture viewer

hurts the curating of feeds+

lack of functionality

doubles w accessibility issues

issues w other long standing features

custom domains

legacy editor (expands on gif link above)

fun this is long standing now

user frustrations and rage

one two three four five six

and personally my favorite post

we didn't forget :)

This is why I hate when people try to credit Staff with running a good site. Tumblr is winning right now in SPITE of Staff's best efforts. Hell I sent them a question a few months ago about my main blog and they responded by BANNING one of my side blogs for being NSFW despite it surviving the purge for five years.

“The average US president has been charged with 1.54 felonies” factoid isn’t true. The average US President has been charged with 0 felonies. Donald trump, who has been charged with 71, is a statistical outlier and should not have been counted

i made a spidaman (theythem)

edit: their name is Sumo (jesús contreras)

miles is better than me because if i had the entire population of spider-HQ hunting me and my ass for sport i would be screaming in fear

The emotion in the last panel tho

PSA for Across the Spiderverse:

Do NOT see the new Spiderverse movie if you have any form of epileptic condition or conditions affected by bright lights and rapidly changing colors.

I will not be spoiling the plot or anything happening in it, but it is important that people know, because ohhh my god the AMOUNT of flashing lights and rapidly changing colors from beginning to end was so rampant that even I, a non-epileptic autistic person, got a severe headache and wild overstimulation. They do not give a warning in theaters at all that this movie is NOT epileptic friendly from the literal beginning with the beginning credits - which is so, so sad!

This is a beautifully made film, it's wonderful, it's amazing, but unfortunately, it's not a good time for anyone super affected by bright flashing lights in rapid succession, especially those seizure prone.

I wanted to put this out there BECAUSE there are no theater warnings. Idk if anyone else has put it out there, but it is SUPER IMPORTANT!!!

I wish you all a lovely day and hope they eventually have a remaster that will be much more friendly to epileptic and other people affected by bright, flashing lights.

(EDIT: Changed all text to plain text for screen readers! Sorry about that, my bad!)

Shoutout to girls who are off the rails. Girls who are insane. Girls who have just completely lost the fucking plot

The best advice I can give on this is to write your grocery list while hungry, then eat something, and then go to the store. And stick to your list.
