#black people we are EVERYWHERE

I swear you can find a fandom for anything on Tumblr. And it's a good thing because from the moment I learned about Fo Sho, I knew I wanted them to blow up.

Let me help the algorithm a bit.

Whenever i think of Tally all i can think of is the two of them beating the shit out of each other and then patching eachother up. Bonus points if the "loser" is extremely salty about it

to my fellow creatives: never stop making art. art is an act of protest.

Some of y'all be like 'eat the rich' then turn around and be classist when you don't like someone.

Same way y'all hate bodyshaming and fatphobia until you personally need to insult someone.

Same way y'all hate ageism then running to someone's bio to check their age.

Same way y'all hate aphobia but uh-oh someone is a little bit irritating then they need to get laid. Suddenly being a sexless virgin is bad. They've got no bitches and that's bad.

Love to talk about the benefits and beauties of online communities and how important they are until someone annoys you then it's go touch grass

Love to talk about mental health until you got beef now they're a 'narcissist' and 'delusional' and they need to 'get help' and don't get me STARTED on how people love using the word bipolar

Cant believe in saying this but y'all need to learn how to insult people better

cause mfer WE CAN HEAR YOU. You're not serving what you think you're serving

Always want to talk about how someone 'probably looks like' or what they 'should be doing' or whether they're 'unstable' or not.

Quit being ridiculous. Quit being a hypocrite and calling it cunty. Knock it off!! Learn how to read someone correctly or go home!!!

...I know people in this day and age think any collaborative effort can fix things, often despite reality (ex. the MULTIPLE tumblr blackout protests over the last like 10 years across different owners of tumblr that didn’t change shit),

but I think going out of your way to buy things from tumblr en masse as a “well then they’ll be profitable and won’t have to change things to resemble profitable sites!” as if the CEO/higher ups are personally going to see this and not AT MOST just go “oh we made money, sick, Anyway.” is just. the most naive and frankly 5-year-old level of problem solving unrealistic idea if you think about it for more than 5 seconds. People are just so blinded by naive optimism it’s painful.

Staff isn’t going to see your purchases and go on a full redemption arc and restore porn in spite of payment systems’ massive stigma against it or Apple’s restrictions and never ever try to mimic Twitter or TikTok again, or whatever the fuck you’re expecting, they’ll keep focusing on shit tweaks that resemble other sites because those are what keep investors who think they know tech and user wants hooked and they think new people from other sites will come over for that instead of the fact these people are typically escaping those kinds of features.

Staff isn’t your friend, their vying for support like they’re your buddy who is hitting hard times and has been here holding your hand all these years is deliberate corporate marketing, they’re an arm of a corporation that spits in the face of LGBTQ+ people and especially black people for daring to post about themselves while touting themselves as The Queer Site! A diverse site! Look at this AMA we’re doing with someone about Black History Month! and you’re doing nobody a service when you’re unintentionally rewarding a service for getting worse because they will not know nor care about your motives, they just care that they got money and will continue making it worse regardless of you. They’re a corporation, not a small business ran by 10 people who are trying their best. People throwing money at Staff already encourages them, let alone when you buy into the weird parasocial shit they try with us which will continue as they see success with that method.

Like the mere idea of everyone buying the crabs to gift to make the site profitable is just unrealistic (especially in this economy with such terrible inflation and in NA there are issues with the weather and fires, on a site that mostly consists of groups of people who are typically low income or unable to work???), it feels very much like the gofundme pages people set up to raise money for celebrities who have debts who will be fine regardless and definitely don’t need your help. Corporations and CEOs are not your friends, they never will be. They do not care about you and they’re not some poor uwu victim of circumstance.

TL;DR half-assed blackouts aimed at companies that don’t care (that I have seen over and over) and “cr*b day” type efforts are incredibly dumb and will change nothing, and they will not change anything, just encourage them since they see they’re making money during their current marketing schemes, if they notice at all. You pitying them like they’re a poor innocent person is exactly what the corporation wants.

If you want to make a difference give that money to an artist or lgbtq+ people who basically get flagged as mature for Existing, or people who get their posts flagged for criticizing the site, or something, someone who gets screwed over by this site on the regular. It will do far more good than that whackadoo type pipe dream and sit down and think for a second, please.

[uramitashi]

hate it sm when someone tries to phrase my radical feminism/activism as "owe you are a good person! You want to help people because you are good! 🥹" ??? im a bad person i actively hate people. meeting the basic principles of human decency and respect isnt me being over the top with my moral goodness, in fact is less than half than bare minimum. "I dont want women to suffer bc they are women" is less than bare minimum of decency. "ideally you are right :) but you know that many people are not nearly as nice as you!" ok then those people are a menace to society and should be considered direct cause of modern evils. Dont try to emphatize my goodness by downplaying other people's bad moral compass - actively hold them accountable

im all for transfem headcanons of characters but when the only female characters that get headcanoned as transwomen are the big/tall/muscular ones it's like hmmmmmmmm what are you implying. same with headcanoning petite/skinny/soft male characters as transmasc, like sometimes its important to stop for a sec and ask yourself if the decisions you are making are being influenced by some underlying (and bigoted) biases
