[ID. Digital art of Dean Winchester done in black and white. He’s is laid back on top of an electric bull. One hand rests on his hip while the other hovers in mid-air, fingers slightly curled, and he seems to be looking at it. When clicked, the transparency shows Castiel standing behind him. Castiel is holding Dean’s hand to his lips, while his other hand supports the back of Dean’s head. Castiel has a visible halo and wings that he has curled protectively around Dean. End ID.]

PLEASE DO NOT GIFT ME BADGES

Tumblr is getting rid of avatars and no longer showing where a reblog comes from in post headers to “afford more room for badges.”

I always felt kinda bad when I was gifted badges and then didn’t use them, cuz people spent actual money on them. So I’m asking, please do not gift me badges, or any other tumblr merch for that matter.

I threw them a bone last year and paid for the ad-free because the ads and blazed softcore porn on the app were infuriating, but I’m canceling it. They’re not getting anything from me anymore. I’ll have to switch back to using the Firefox mobile browser. Hopefully the new dash un-fuckers that are going around will work on mobile.

i hate the homogenization of layouts i hate how every new update to desktop tumblr makes it look more like the app i hate how they've decided to give up on tumblr as a website i hate that blog themes and html are being treated as an old fashioned holdover and not a fun unique feature i hate that the phone app is all that matters!!!

[sbeep]

Hi @staff, hi @wip ! Please renable the feature that directly links a previous reblog to its corresponding post on that users blog, I like to read tags and I use this feature MANY times per day, its how I find new people on tumblr. This is a blogging platform, cheers 👍

In case anyone isn’t sure what I mean, even in the post notes now, where it should link to my version of the post (/post/xxxx000xxx00), it goes to my blog home.

The responses to my complaint ticket unhelpfully stated “this isn’t supported right now”. kek.

WK01 - Creative Practice and Critical Thinking

We have learned that critical thinking is an essential criterion for objectively and logically understanding and judging in order to analyze and evaluate a given situation or information objectively. We also realized that this influences many aspects of everyday life, including the practical side of a designer’s work.

However, relying solely on critical thinking can be a weakness, as it can leave individuals as inflexible and passive intermediaries.

In this week’s CTS B class, we learned how to newly understand the concept of creative practice and how to apply it alongside critical thinking by engaging in activities such as creating new narratives and making graphs about social issues.

Critical thinking is primarily associated with structured and analytical approaches. It involves systematically evaluating and analyzing information. In a structured approach, the problem is clearly defined, relevant information is gathered, and conclusions are drawn through logical reasoning. On the other hand, creative practice is primarily associated with unstructured and generative approaches. It involves generating new ideas and seeking innovative solutions. An unstructured approach thinks freely beyond existing frameworks, utilizing intuition and imagination.

I thought of Steve Jobs' Apple business as an efficient example of this.

The benefits of the interaction between critical thinking and creative practice are being applied in many areas. Recently, I realized that the fundamental values of UX design often stem from the interaction between critical thinking and creative practice.

As a growing designer, I believe that the interaction between these two approaches will be a powerful force against the rapid advancement of AI technology. To foster this, we must continuously study and balance both critical thinking and creative practice.

I'll be real, not expecting twitters removal of the block feature to get it removed from any app stores. The reason tumblr has an NSFW ban is because it would be against the apple app store's terms of service, yet NSFW is allowed on twitter, which is sold on the same app store. Clearly the terms of service are not actually indicative of what they will allow. Twitter is a huge app that they are not interested in removing even when the terms of service are violated.
