A friend of mine posted this and tagged my old instagram account, asking me to share it. I figured sharing it here where I actually have a following, would be far better.
Please remember that just because the government is giving into pressure and greed, that doesn鈥檛 mean that any of this is getting any better, in a lot of ways it鈥檚 getting worse. And even if you yourself aren鈥檛 being as heavily affected anymore, there are people and communities that are.
Stay safe Darling ones, and help others remain safe too.
tldr: the Internet Archive/WayBack Machine is super important in term of archived content, billions of stuff are on there, and with the current event happening in the world like stated above,without this tool, it will be hard to properly document what took place. It will be easy for certain people to rewrite history. Dont let them.
DONATE HERE (post dont get much exposure with working links sorry)

^^^^^^^^^^^^^
IF YOU CANT DONATE THEN PLEASE SPREAD THE INFO
On twitter,tumblr,facebook,heck,anywhere you want,this needs to be talked about !
First, let me apologize for being inactive for a while. Again.
It's just I've received the news and I took it hard, like a missile to the gut. Pornhub won't be acquiring Tumble and instead, the bastards in Verizon will be giving it to "WordPress" or whatever. What's worse is that the ban on mature content will remain.
So I have made a hard decision:
I'm leaving Tumblr. Indefinitely.
To be honest, I wanted to leave from the very start when the ban was initiated, and I think right now is a good time. There is nothing here for me. Tumblr, the place that was once a paradise for people like me, where I can be creative and free to do whatever I want, has become no better than youtube or DeviantArt. It's become a wasteland of what it used to be.
and I think you should do the same. There is nothing but boring pictures of pets and family and non-creative things, and it's only a matter of time before it sinks to the ocean of darkness.
I don't know where I'll go, but it's better than here.
I'll be here a little longer, just to get ready, and then I'll delete my Tumblr accounts and never look back, with some regret on the side.
It's time to say goodbye.
Thank you so much for being here, supporting me and whatnot. To my friends who I'll still be in contact with and to the people I barely know. Your company is more than enough. It's been a fun ride.
