I will miss you if they finally realize about you, Tumblr the website and app Twitter account. You shined bright, you magnificent being.
And some of you may not have heard this peak of human culture, but… just after Twitter purchase by Elon Musk got confirmed, a bunch of (serious) journalist put together a Twitter Space (a live audio streaming where any of the attendees can ask to participate) about what was going to happen next, and … @tumblr joined. And… they invited tumblr to speak. I can’t describe how much joy this moment brought me and how fucking proud made me of being part of our little entropy generator here:
Last twitter space
canon Tumblr voice
I DONT KNOW WHAT I EXPECTED BUT MY EXPECTATIOBS WERE BY FUCKING FAR EXCEEDED
TUMBLR VOICE REVEAL!????
this is the best interview ever. omg.
I love it when people just can’t control themselves and keep exploding in laughter
Non-Britons! Instead of being distracted by the pomp and fanfare of the coronation, here’s a reminder that:
The coronation was funded by tax-payer money. This same tax could have gone towards the cost of living crisis. People are starving and freezing to death as this is going on.
Protests (peaceful or otherwise) are illegal now. A lot of anti-monarchists are being arrested for simply holding signs.
Our government is currently trying to push through a revision to the Equality Act that will exclude trans and non-binary individuals.
Oil companies have made a record profit in the past couple of years. Oil and gas prices aren’t rising because of an inflation issue.
Our NHS is crumbling because funding is going to stupid projects like this coronation.
His name is Cedric Liechti, afaik he’s the “secretary general” of the energy workers’s CGT of Paris. He pronounced this speech at the garbage workers picket line which blocks the entry of one of the garbage incinerators in Paris.
There’s nothing to make you cringe right out of your skull quite like seeing somebody like an old post you made in 2017 and remembering the heights of your epic Tumblr larping days

With the announcement of the Harry Potter TV series, you will be made aware of the people in your social circle who are excited about it.
Now is a good time to stop knowing them.
The play here is fairly blatant.
Hire new 12 year olds that haven’t condemned JK Rowling’s horrendous views
Aggressively condemn the inevitable people who say shit about said 12 year olds online to take the moral high ground
Turn it into a show that people hate watch for maximum revenue
Friendly reminder that JK Rowling is the executive producer for this show. So in addition to benefiting monetarily from its very existence, she will be an active participant in creating its narrative. I won’t be watching it and I encourage everyone else to ignore its existence as well.
She will also get paid PER EPISODE as an EP. So for the people who try the “Well she was already paid…” line, nope. Nope. Every ep. So if the show keeps going, she keeps getting the money. If it stops, there ya go.
#my wife is on the SOR for being gay #no joke #she hit on a girl in a straight bar once #in 1997 #and while the girl was into it #the off duty cop sitting nearby was not #and so he arrested her for ‘soliciting homosexual activity’ #which in our state was still a felony #in 1997 (and would remain so until Lawrence v Texas in 2003) #and since ‘soliciting homosexual activity’ was a felony and a sex crime #she got put on The List #she is still on there to this day #because it costs MONEY to ask a judge to take you off #and she has tried four times#since 2003 #to get taken off the SOR #but every time the judge has said something like ‘no you pled guilty to the crime i can’t possibly take you off the sex offender registry’ #with no acknowledgement of what the actual crime was #(the crime of being a butch lesbian hitting on a cute girl who was into it) #(in 1997)

Younger queer people need to realize that the SOR being used against queer people simply for being queer isn’t some ancient history thing. It still impacts queer people today. And it can quite easily be used that way again.
