So tumblr has now rolled lives for my account too and reading their rules..

MIDDLE FINGER IS BANNED I REPEAT DO NOT FLIP THE BIRD on live IT IS VERY VERY BAD IT IS LITERALLY SAME AS IF YOU GOT FULLY NAKED AND WOOP WOOP HANKY PANKY BOJOINK WITH AN EQUALLY NUDE PARTNER ON THE STREAM I REPEAT HIDE YOUR MIDDLE FINGERS PUT THEM AWAY PUT THEN AWAY NOW A CHILD COULD SEE AN OBSCENE FINGER ON TUNGLR DOT COM

I realized from lot of tags and comments lot of you are unaware that the underlying issue is BIGGER than just tumblr. I even skipped the part about dress code bc its the same on every app now, nothing special unfortunately, the middle FINGER was news. you just never read the ToS and the reason is US LAWS, Credit card company monopoly, advertisers wanting everything to be "family friendly" etc and things are only going to get worse if you don't start opposing and repeling the torjan horse laws. Here, let's have someone who knows better explain it:

KOSA AFFECTS US ALL

there will be no room to call for a free palestine, congo, sudan, or yemen when imperialists control what stays on the internet.

there will be no room for sharing queer joy, safe binding and tucking guides, or tutorials on how to safely navigate kink when queerphobes and puritans decide what kinda of relationships and identities are "acceptable".

there will be no room for anticapitalism, protest organizing, pirating, or sharing anti-establishment resources when the establishment can erase whatever ideas are too threatening to them to stay.

there will be no room to be someone who doesn't conform.

DOWNLOAD ALL THAT IS IMPORTANT TO YOU. CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES. PROTEST AS LOUDLY AS POSSIBLE. SIGN PETITIONS. BUILD ALTERNATIVE COMMUNICATIONS FOR YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS. AND DO IT NOW BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.

I moved recently to start a new job and part of my commute now involves one of those high capacity toll booths where a two lane road suddenly flares out into 5-7 lanes of total anarchy with no lines anywhere, and then narrows back down to two lanes again, and we're just supposed to sort ourselves out? Who designed this

anyway I dreamed up this helpful anatomical guide on the drive home

[pjharvey-moved]

it’s absurdly easy also for abusive and predatory men to be accepted and platformed within contemporary leftist spaces bc saying the right things is treated as more important than doing the right things and misogyny against women you don’t like is encouraged even by people who call themselves feminists.

me explaining how online works so y'all can be gay do crimes fuck corporate:

Business wants to flatten human-online engagement for business aims. This is the algorithm's prime function—not delivering you the content you want, when you want it.

So, the solution is to up the ante. Send backwash chaotic metrics. Do big loud gay throttle. You can literally choose to go against the online grain anytime you want.

Example: You love tea. OK. Identify indie tea brand that's super ethics. Put them on blast as hard possible online and in search. Get 5 friends (who get 5 friends) to do this. This helps them.

But also, bidnid ppl do competitive analysis. big shitty tea brand says "huh, why is trending?" big tea brand go "how can i do that. wait."

and if you picked the right indie tea brand, only logical answer for bigboi is "consumer like ethical tea. i...oops." and when big brand tries to only LOOK like tiny tea brand, you call bullshit no buy

you do not give social media signals to big bad mean tea brand. you screencap if you gotta and use asterisk or whatever. all the while, applying pressure to uplift cool indie tea brand and cool little guys like them.

this is legit how online commerce and digital analytics works.

1 person uplifting cool indie ethical brand becomes 2. then 10. then 100. then 1000. then 100,000 until big bidnid fucks have to go "and i oop." if they want market share, they will have to evolve or you will ignore them like an annoying bug.

pls prove to me that normies are able to grasp what im saying: you have all the power. you're just not using it.

posts like this are so funny to me because all i do is reblog other people's stuff and make posts that are about as substantial as 'i think phoenix wright would watch that show where japanese childen run errands and sob through the whole thing' and i have 3x the followers here that i do on my art blog.

[a-very-confused-gremlin]

i fully believe piracy could improve online services. EXPONENTIALLY.

listen. listen. how many times do we use websites we DONT LIKE to acquire a certain asset because we think theres no other options? A FUCKIN LOT

BUT! piracy becomes wider spread. COMPANIES are thrown off their high horses, being forced to work + do better to gain attention, because why would we even need them anymore? we've got piracy.

trying to raise prices needlessly? NOPE. trying to lower quality of products? NOPE. (etc. etc. because i'm too sleepy to expand more rn)

anyways. fuck establishment. fuck capitalism. good ngight

Seduction by the Unseelie Faeries

Enter not this world, for these are goblin lands, these are demon lands, where evil spirits stalk such mortal souls. Grey lands of algorithms and mocking spirits, cold and dark places not built for or by human hands, quite lands forever loud, that make you watch forever for things you do not want to see.

Hey! Girl! What’s a pretty thing like you doing with your AdBlock on? =)

[Turn off AdBlock] or [Exit Website]

Hey! Girl! I wouldn’t want someone as lovely as you seeing that type of content. =)

[Ok] or [Try another search]

Strange demons walk these walls, and crying evil spirits call. One eyed Camera people stare, and trap the world in unseeming glare.

To watch you eat, to watch you sleep, to watch the blood beneath your skin. They watch the world with great black eyes, until you’ll always see them there, until you’ll never feel unseen.

Hey! Girl! What are you doing in a place like this, you should come back to my app. =)

Hey! Girl! You wouldn’t mind signing in for a guy like me. =)

[Sign in] or [I don’t have an account]

The great march of imps proceeds, laughing mouths and crying eyes concede. Plastic bodies built not to offend, to show their great selling signs to unwanted eyes.

To jump before your eyes, to scream your ears, to make all unwanted mischief seen. Sing the world their mindless hymns, with smiling jaws and laughing eyes, until your finally worn down, until they finally win.

Hey! Girl! You wouldn’t mind giving me your number. =)

Hey! Girl! Look at this ad!

Dark eyes loom over a landscape of minimalist UI. The king of wicked things comes to see his lifestruck kingdom raw. Lord of censor and content filter, lord of poison lawn and dead mall, lord of endless content and hungry eyes, lord of evil spirit and wandering demon, lord of advertisement and spyware.

His face is plastic, his eyes are touchscreen, his veins are coper wires. New humans are always in his fell realm, the wild hunt not tried.
