#we love our hellsite

[almost-emerald-eyes]

the boop feature didn't work for me in April so I am SO glad that it's back and working!!!

[anarchyandcryptids]

I love tumblr because so few people use it that nobody bothers blocking it anymore

[bubblegum-blackwood]

Wtf I know I was following you

RIP Tumblr just be like that sometimes ig

[deepdive002]

I am eager to blaze the hell out of this “hellsite”. Specifically I want to get people to stop calling it a hellsite because this lovesite is my home!

NO THE FUCK HE SHOULDN'T

It’s that time of the month….. monthly reminder Tumbler sucks

Tumblr my beloved beloathed hellsite 🥰😂

Currently watching half of the people I follow panic/make/move to blue sky from twitter

Debating if I even want to make one, I hate having multiple social media accounts. Its something that irks me lol 😅 (plus too many to juggle and I’m too old for that 😆)

I only joined twitter initially because it was required long ago and repurposed it to look at twst art when I got sucked in years ago by jp artists lol

I’m not leaving this hellsite though. I’m too comfy here and my friends are on here. I met so many nice people here that you’ll have to drag me away kicking and screaming lolol 🥰💞🤣

You all are stuck with me 😈🫰

as of yesterday, me and Madame Curator have been together for exactly half a year!!!! tragically we couldn't be together to celebrate in person, but i love her so much and this truly has been the most incredible six months of my cryptid life!

the real difference between tumblr users and reddit users is that when push comes to shove reddit users can crash the fucking stock market and meanwhile even if you could lead a bunch of tumblr users to water we'd probably all start arguing and trying to drown each other before you could get any of us to actually take a drink

I know we're all sweating and stressing about if/when Tumblr might close, given the announcements about it being run on a skeleton crew. I'm certainly anxious about it.

I'm not sure where I'll go. Unlike the Livejournal exodus, there's no clear place for Tumblrites to go. Dreamwidth is basically a copy of an earlier iteration of Livejournal, so it made sense to go there when LJ started fucking things up. But Tumblr? There's no place like Tumblr on the current internet--which is unfair in so many ways and speaks to how corporate and commercial the internet has become and how much that sucks. And we're over here, not being marketable and not being a "good" market.

On the other hand, LJ is still kicking, despite falling out of favor, so hope is not completely lost.

But I want to make sure I can keep up with everyone just in case. Drop me a line, DM me, whatever, and I'll gladly trade contact info. I have email and Discord at the moment.

I may branch out into other sites soon too. I'm currently investigating my options. I think I have an old pillowfort account.

That said, I've been here since 2011. I'm basically fused to the servers Videodrome-style. So while I'm going to be backing things up and maybe crossposting, I'm not leaving here until they make me leave.

I have just learned that Tumblr Dot Com limits the number of links you are allowed in a single post to 100 x.x;

On one hand-- Holy shit we have over 100 unique tags?! (Not counting The Secret Tags) That doesn't seem right!

On the other, I am deeply offended! I want to update my Master Post and Tumblr is telling me no!

HOW DARE!

Exceptionally rude!

Trying to work out how to navigate around this but may end up just having to thread our intro page

I don't visit my dashboard often, maybe once a week at the most. I read my Tumblr crawl via RSS feeds. (Which has its pluses and minuses) Got distracted by something shiny today while checking notifications and was scrolling down, and I saw an ad. I looked at my extensions pins and saw, oh, I turned ad blocker and my anti-tracker off to support the site at some point. It took me a good 5 minutes to notice. If I'd turned either off on Facebook or Xitter, I'd be unable to read my newsfeed, purely because it would be overrun. I do so love our little hellsite.

Hahaa my bad, didn't mean to kill the vibe. Dont worry though, I'll be pushing everything relating to this moment as far out of my mind as possible for years until I look back and realize I was cool and funny as fuck and you were just wrong.

Yeah sorry man, didn't mean to talk over you, it's just that you've been spewing so much garbage for so long that my brain is physically tearing itself apart by the seams. If I don't stop you now, I might actually end up in a million cartoonish little bits on the floor

Hahaha, yeah I know we haven't talked in a while. I made it that way so that I don't have to think about you anymore. I didn't plan on explaining it to you, because you're a difficult person to be around to begin with.

I hate you. I hate you. I hate you.

I can't say any of that -- being direct is difficult for me, you see -- but lately I've seen you as unworthy of my time.

In my case, being nice about it is destined to be misconstrued as tolerance. Being mean about it will only solidify the false perspective that demonizes me and the people I align with.

I do my best to stay silent these days.

Haha, yeah, sorry I got too passionate -- I should calm down. It's just that you got into this thing I really like, and I love when people want to learn things I know about, and --

Oh whoops lol, sorry I was half asleep. Yeah I didn't really mean that message, where I told you about how somewhere out there -- in those infinite versions of the world -- I hope we ended up together.

The message that never got sent. I thought I knew better. Maybe I should have, just to be satisfied with erasing you from my mind, but I couldn't help my nature.

Of course, it's no problem, I understand. We were on a break -- partially, at least, because I was new to sex -- you said so yourself. You chose someone close to me to spend the night with instead. I still comforted you in the event of your grief. I don't miss you anymore -- you barely even cross my mind -- let alone come up in conversation.

I do my best to stay silent these days.

I'm sick of it.

I've masked such beautiful and powerful emotions for so long.

Fuck you. Be upset at me. If everything I love about myself is something you hate about me, so be it. We'll both be loud.

I love you. I don't care if you don't feel the same, or don't want to talk anymore. I need you to know before this stupid fucking rock gets consumed by the sun that I love you.

I will not stifle my beauty for your comfort.

I respect your boundaries with surgeons precision, but asking you to even remotely respect mine makes you upset?

Pathetic!

You should be ashamed of yourself.

Nobody holds you accountable, and that's because I do my best to stay silent these days.

I'm sick of it. I hate you. Fuck you.

I hate this. I'm so tired. I've been fighting for do long. It's so hard to ask for help, and the world is so heavy, and I just need to be held, and and and

I love you. Please stay around. I'd choose you to the ends of time, in every instance of us.

I want to live. I want to grow. I want to change. I want to move. I want to cook and take pictures and write and make music and draw and sit outside and and and

and if we get along, you can join me if you'd like

[autistic-katara]

shout out to stranger things for being the only fandom less toxic on tiktok than on tumblr

[folkinsomnia]

screaming myself hoarse til I pass out we were together during a very tumultuous time in our lives I will always have your back and be curious about you about your career your whereabouts!!!

[obstinatecondolement]

I love that the reclamation of "tumblrina" has been so successful that I frequently forget that it was coined by misogynists and transphobes to make fun of us. How little they understood our culture and the power of what they had handed us...

[darkshrimpemotions]

Neil really does say hi, by the way. Tori was right all along.
