congratulations on replying to a post and commenting on every fuckin aspect of it except the point that was being made. have anything to say about my use of italics. do you think my icon is tacky. gonna call me out for not capitalizing ‘i’

fr if i see one more ‘it was cute yall thought the log off protest would change anything’ post im gonna fuckin scream. it was one day. 24 hours. all you had to do was log off. was it going to change anything? no probably fucking not. but was it a lot of effort? even if the protest had 0 effect on staff then its not like we lost anything? it was just a day of not logging on. i played video games all day, it wasnt exactly a painful trial, and i honestly cant remember the last time i wasnt on tumblr for 24 hours straight. it wasnt hard, it didnt cost anything, it wasnt upsetting. did it have any effect? no but at least i tried. and trying cost me nothing. why wouldnt i at least try?

but i swear. if i find yall bitches who wouldn’t put in the minimal fucking effort in to fix things complaining about anything staff does in the future i will come to your house. i will pick you up. & i will toss you headfirst into the nearest dumpster where you lazy fuckers belong i swear to fucking god

"pornhub exists" yeah right. people should stop treating pornhub as due and be grateful for it to exist. i have to use proxy or vpn to use pornhub, and it mostly so slow. this site is blocked in my country. i can't even fap without dancing with a tambourine. do you feel my pain? :D

youre a true legend anon. bless

and yknow theres a lot of people who dont like pornhub’s business practices. pornhub isnt the best option for everyone. idk why ppl act like There Can Only be One Porn Site Ever

Okay I-- WHAT?

This one’s new.

“This post was flagged because somewhere in your reblog there might be adult content“

Somewhere in my–

SOMEWHERE? In MY REBLOG?

@staff You flagged a WHOLE DAMN POST BECAUSE SOMEWHERE in my REBLOG - which was reblogged by, and is being reblogged by, literally anyone and anyone - there - wait for it - MIGHT be adult content?!??!

What does that–

Are you seriously–

Do you seriously not see the flaw here? 

Are you saying, that one person - one VERY determined person - could go around and reblog ANY POST they like, and add f*male n*pples to it, and you would automatically flag that WHOLE post?

THE REBLOG DOES NOT CONTAIN ANY ADULT CONTENT. IT’S A COMIC. ABOUT A CARTOON. IT’S A–

 I’m done.

The log off was to show tumblr how many people would leave if the ban went through, ffs, idiots

if this website has taught me anything its that i cant expect any higher functioning out of people when i need it most

i’m 25, you know, i can’t be upset about a website’s slow decline into madness. i should really get a better hobby anyway, in the end. 

but i am, you know, in some ways, upset. the truth is, i have a weird fondness for this blue hell. i liked it because i’m obviously a text-based content creator, i hate facebook, and i’m too lazy for youtube. there’s a lot wrong with it, obviously, but it was anonymous, somewhat safe, more based in community. so much about it was frustrating. but it also was a really, really good place for new artists, for people who were exploring their identity, for me to waste like an embarrassing amount of time on.

and honestly, i think that’s what it is - i’ve been trying to “Get Off Tumblr” for a while, but i always come back here, in the end. And being given a date feels like… time’s up. obviously the site won’t delete entirely. but already their userbase was halved, and it will probably halve again. less and less people will post. less reason to log in. 

so it kind of feels… yeah, like it’s time to grow up. like i gotta pack up and move on and not be too sad about it because, well, it’s a website. i get the same weird nostalgia as graduating. like, looking back over a shoulder and saying “fUCK you!” but also knowing… i can’t belong there anymore. yes, the world might keep moving, the site will persist despite god’s will to end it - but the era where it was mine is over.

i don’t think it’ll end in one big burst of silence. but it’s been a heart slowly fading for a while. and less than a death knell, it’s just another symbol: something i had, even if it’s not a real something….. it’s not the same as it used to be. half my friends are gone. the other half rarely show up. it’s not finished.

but something…. is ending.
