“alt text for more info” “turn on cations for more info” no actually this is not where more info goes. These have a very distinct purpose. There are plenty of other places for more info. If you’re going to make your post inaccessible, the least you could do is not use accessibility tools at your own leisure for whatever purpose you see fit.

a recording of the tumblr CEO Q&A that happened on tumblr live on 07/11/23.

some notes: the very beginning of the video is cut off, but the audio for it is fine. and there are a few small areas in the second half of the video where the audio drops in quality a bit.

all of that is because this whole video is actually frankenstein'd together from several different audio and video sources, recorded by myself, @xccentriktigress, and @fokron, and with extra help from @eiimblr and @sharksfood!

thank you all for working on this team project with me, and for helping archive this so that others can see it! yay teamwork! :D

[eyrieofsynapses]

you know, I've come to expect people blasting their music/tiktoks/whatever in most public spaces. I absolutely hate it, but I kind of expect it. but in the corner of the public library? the quiet top floor of the fucking library? the public space that is RENOWNED for being a place where you are supposed to be quiet and people usually speak in whispers and there are whole scenes of movies and shows where the librarian gets annoyed by characters talking too loudly? and you're going to blast your shit so loud my noise-cancelling headphones and my speech-blocker white noise machine can't shut you out?

and not to mention there are two people fucking doing this???

anyway the rise of personal devices containing speakers that can be used to play loud sounds was a Severe Mistake. or we need to put every person in mandatory "how to respect others" classes every six months. possibly both. whatever
