It is not enough to have a good mind. The main thing is to use it well.

Descartes

[realplongciety-blog]

Time will come and we will long for those we’ve ignored and forgotten in the past, gave up for some things we thought are better, let go because we believed that we simply didn’t want or need them at all. And when that moment comes, we will realise how we should’ve held onto them, how we could’ve chosen to stick around with them, how we would’ve lived utterly different lives with them being a part of us and us being the same to them. When that instant comes, we will realise how truly alone and empty we are— like fragile bottles rolling down a crooked road, constantly bumping to one another, not a single ‘Hi’ or ‘Hello’ from anyone because ‘Hey, I’m not sure if you’re a part of me or what. Am I? Please tell me, am I? But you sure do seem familiar to me. Like a distant memory getting lost in the clouds now.’— and we will feel pain, but it’s a different kind of pain— it will hurt and we will hurt and everything else will seem to matter and not matter at the same time, everything else will seem to make and not make sense at the same time. And then time will pass again, because that’s what it does— it passes— until that same moment of great pain comes again and it’ll hurt again, we will ache again, everything else won’t be the same again. It will come back and happen to us over and over again, many times that we’ll get sick of it— but we won’t get used to it, we’ll never get used to it. Because the pain of losing something that used to be always there— that we used to have and claim as ours, is beyond bearable and acceptable that no matter how many times pass by, nothing will change. It’s like a scar that never heals. Over and over again, a throbbing deep within will be felt. Over and over again, the pounding in your flesh will repeat until your bones themselves feel it.

It’s not about realising what you’ve got until it’s gone. It’s all about grabbing whatever is present and relishing the fact that it’s there— with you, in that moment— not thinking, wanting and yearning for anything else at all.

A New Policy Against Self-Harm Blogs

One of the great things about Tumblr is that people use it for just about every conceivable kind of expression. People being people, though, that means that Tumblr sometimes gets used for things that are just wrong. We are deeply committed to supporting and defending our users’ freedom of speech, but we do draw some limits. As a company, we’ve decided that some specific kinds of content aren’t welcome on Tumblr. For example, we prohibit spam and identity theft.

Our Content Policy has not, until now, prohibited blogs that actively promote self-harm. These typically take the form of blogs that glorify or promote anorexia, bulimia, and other eating disorders; self-mutilation; or suicide. These are messages and points of view that we strongly oppose, and don’t want to be hosting. The question for us has been whether it’s better to (a) prohibit them, as a statement against the very ideas of self-harm that they are advancing, or (b) permit them to stay up, accompanied by a public service warning that directs readers to helplines run by organizations like the National Eating Disorders Association.

We are planning to post a new, revised Content Policy in the very near future, and we’d like to ask for input from the Tumblr community on this issue.

Here’s what we think the right answer is:

1. Implement a new policy against pro-self-harm blogs. Here’s draft language we are planning to add to our Content Policy:

Active Promotion of Self-Harm. Don’t post content that actively promotes or glorifies self-injury or self-harm. This includes content that urges or encourages readers to cut or mutilate themselves; embrace anorexia, bulimia, or other eating disorders; or commit suicide rather than, e.g., seek counseling or treatment for depression or other disorders. Online dialogue about these acts and conditions is incredibly important; this prohibition is intended to reach only those blogs that cross the line into active promotion or glorification. For example, joking that you need to starve yourself after Thanksgiving or that you wanted to kill yourself after a humiliating date is fine, but recommending techniques for self-starvation or self-mutilation is not.

We aim to begin implementing this policy next week. Of course, we will allow any affected blogs a grace period in which to edit or download your content.

2. Start showing PSAs on search results for related keywords. In addition, we plan to start posting “public service announcement”-style language whenever users search for tags that typically go along with pro-self-harm blogs. For example, when a user searches for tags like “anorexia”, “anorexic”, “bulimia”, “bulimic”, “thinspiration”, “thinspo”, “proana”, “purge”, “purging”, etc., we would show PSA language like:

Eating disorders can cause serious health problems, and at their most severe can even be life-threatening. Please contact the [resource organization] at [helpline number] or [website].

So that’s our plan. We’d like your feedback. If you have any comments or suggestions, please email them to policy@tumblr.com.

Things happen and sometimes letting out what or how you feel about them never do any good. That no matter how you try and tell yourself that everything's going to get better, you know deep down that it won't because you just know it. That no matter how you want to believe their words - the voices - you still know you're lonely because you really are and you're not just saying that. That no matter how they all say they're always around for you, you know they're not because they're really not. That no matter how you try and put a smile on your face, you know you can't because you just can't and you end up crying even more.
