Tumblr should ban radfem blogs.

I mean it.

First of all, it’s infecting EVERYTHING on here. I normally only engage with the typical fun little fandom shit posts there but every now and again something will be tagged wrong from a twitter import who doesn’t understand tagging every fandom you’re in for every post you make, ‘doesn’t get you followers’.

Second of all, of all the platforms to preach your anti trans, very narrow view of being a feminist, you choose... Tumblr? Arguably the most queer social media platform? ... Really?

I think Tumblr should make a statement about them because they are on here and they are causing active harm to everyone on Tumblr. Even if they were to start restricting hashtags and banning blogs, I know they’ll come back again and again. Much like all the sh glorification blogs and other stuff that Tumblr doesn’t allow. It’s just almost impossible to police when new blogs are made daily. 

Normally I say mobilize and to engage with them and make their experience on Tumblr unbearable but not these ladies.

They’ve become addicted to defending a non existing war.

No reason, no evidence, no passionate plea will help them and they will only become further enraged by you insinuating that they are wrong.

In the end, history will see them out, but the pain they will have inflicted will still be there.

Is this biased due to the nature of the tumblr tagging system? Absolutely :)

They've Twitterpilled Tumblr and I don't like it.

We shouldn't lie to the poor Twitter/ X refugees like this. They deserve to know that this hellsite is nothing like their homeland. They deserve to know that this is the realm of horse plinko, Goncharov, Miette, and 10,000-word essays on anime swords. They deserve to know how vigorously we uphold timeless traditions of clowning and tomfoolery. That even the most serious takes are likely to be memed into oblivion. That follower counts mean nothing, and fame is never earned--only suddenly thrust upon the unsuspecting. We cannot pretend to be Twitter for them. It is dishonest and cruel to make them think we can.

What does it mean when you like a post but the heart turns grey?

Tumblr site layout switched sides

guys help the layout for Tumblr like changed and I'm a little freaked out-

like the bar with the 'home-explore-activity-etc' buttons is on the left when it was always on the right? is this a new update? I took a break from Tumblr and now that I logged back in it's different. Can this be changed in some type of settings? And if so, how did it change on its own?

Does anyone know how to change it back?

WTF I DIDN'T KNOW YOU COULD DRAG THE POST BUTTON ACROSS THE SCREEN, THIS IS FUN

when i was a kid i wanted to be a famous youtuber like dan and phil so that people would gay ship me with my irl best friend and we would be sooo weirded out by it and laugh and make videos joking about it but secretly it would make her realize her repressed gay crush on me and i'd help her through her gay crisis and then we would have a sickeningly sweet sappy romance and read fanfiction about ourselves together... anyways just found out she's married to a guy in the mafia now so i probably don't have a chance

Different looks for site and app 😭😭:

One thing I love about Tumblr that wasn't a thing on Reddit is that I can just write whatever the fuck text post I want. No titles. No putting text on images. No algorithms or karma. Just fuckin splatter your mind onto the screen and people will see it. Like god intended.

PSA: Tumblr/Wordpress is preparing to start selling our user data to Midjourney and OpenAI.

you have to MANUALLY opt out of it as well.

to opt out on desktop, click your blog ➡️ blog settings ➡️ scroll til you see visibility options and it’ll be the last option to toggle.

to opt out on mobile, click your blog ➡️ scroll then click visibility ➡️ toggle opt out option.

if you’ve already opted out of showing up in google searches, it’s preselected for you. if you don’t have the option available, update your app or close your browser/refresh a few times. important to note you also have to opt out for each blog you own separately, so if you’d like to prevent AI scraping your blog i’d really recommend taking the time to opt out.

We are well beyond canary in the coalmine warning levels with the way trans people and particularly trans women are treated on this site.

Maybe you've heard the metaphor of allowing wolves and sheep to share the same space, welcoming everyone. You end up with just wolves because allowing them in that space makes it unsafe for any sheep. Or the story about how a nazi goes into a dive bar and is refused service. The bartender then explains to someone else at the bar that if you serve them once they tell their friends and before you know it you're the nazi bar they all go to and normal customers don't feel safe.

Terfs and other bigots are seeing these targeted harassment campaigns succeed against trans women and rejoicing. They see Tumblr ban them and officially stand by those decisions as endorsement for their harassment. It's a sign to bigots across the internet that Tumblr is a good place for them.

And what's more is that a lot of us probably don't realize just how much trans women contribute to Tumblr. The women banned recently were sources of site-wide memes and posts I wasn't even aware originated from them.any years old memes and references can be traced back to trans women on this site.

How many of these folks have to be removed before this is no longer a site you want to be a part of it? Sure you cultivate your own experience, but you can't follow or interact with people who aren't here. And if I wanted to interact with the nazis and terfs I'd go to reddit.

I encourage everyone to reblog this. Trans women shouldn't have to be the only ones speaking out against the bigotry they're experiencing. They shouldn't be the only ones risking their blogs being nuked by staff. We have to stand with them.
