“why do we even need ao3/ why won’t they censor content i don’t like/ what’s that money going towards”

it’s going towards not arbitrarily deleting all your fucking blogs overnight because yahoo had a shareholders meeting, that’s what the fuck it’s going towards. if you don’t own it, they can yank the cord whenever they feel like it, for whatever reason, using whatever wobbly catch-all algorithm they want, and that is exactly what the fuck we’ve been telling you. “wellll i’m not a porn blog, it’s not going to affect me,” oh worm?? you sure?? this website is suddenly gonna be capable of censoring posted content with surgical precision? give ao3 ten bucks immediately and get real

Tumblr is apparently doing some crazy nonsense again, so it seems like a good time to remind everyone that Pillowfort.io is a new social media platform that aims to give users control of their content and how it’s seen and shared, as well as provide better communication tools to promote conversation and creativity. If this sounds good to you, you can donate $5 to our PayPal and you will receive a registration link the Friday after your donation. And if you decide the site isn’t for you, you can request a refund for up to three weeks after you sign up. (All money we receive through this process is going towards paying our hosting expenses and compensating our programmers.)

Fyi

henstomper:

im not gonna like stop using this site or anything but i can pretty confidently say this is one of the dumbest moves ive seen a site make in a while. instead of fixing the actual problems with their website ie pornbots on every fucking post, actual pedophiles, theyre just going to ban everything horny which most likely isnt going to solve those problems and is going to hurt lots of sex workers and artists as well as drive people off the site

cirnovevo:

Lads, it’s “official” on this hellsite.

Now more than ever is the time to move to Pillowfort. Pillowfort is actively trying to become everything Tumblr lacks. Their stance on adult content is currently “Adult content made by humans” (not bots) is permitted. Do NOT wait to get your Pillowfort accounts. When this site takes the traffic nosedive that it will, and it will, it will be deleted permanently.

Get your Pillowfort account. Tell people your username change.

Before it’s too late.

A part of me wants to take screenshots of all the people praising She-ra and The Dragon Prince to the high heavens while ragging on Voltron. Then when She-ra and TDP fails to meet their crazy expectations or don’t go the way they want, and they start ragging on them. Pull up the screenshots and compare and contrast their reactions. 

Wow what a horrible shitty person you must be.

First of all its not a crazy expecaltation to not treat gay ppl like shit

And yea. Ppl are hopeful based on the promises of the creators. If they fail to meet those promises (like the voltron ppl) then its the fault of the creators.

What kinda shitty disgusting person are you to try to shit on ppl for wanting to be happy.

Fuck off

Have you been paying attention to what people in fandom do these past few years?

They will praise a show and it’s creators, claiming a work is the most progressive, most woke, and most important thing ever, sometimes based on the flimsiest of reasons. Often not even based on anything the creators actually showed or said, but on the viewers own theories and headcanons they’re sure of 100% true(again based on the flimsiest of reasons or based on nothing at all) And then when the creators failed to live up to those expectations, fail to make those theories canon, or just takes the story in a different direction than the view wants. The viewer throws the biggest tempter tantrum and attack and harass the creator.

Look at how fandom has treated Rebecca Sugar. Look at how fandom has treated Bex. Both LGBT women pushing for greater LGBT representation in children’s media. Both harassed and threatened by fans when reality did not meet the fans insane expectations.

With that pattern in mind I fully expect these people currently praising TDP and She-ra to turn on both the show and the creators eventually. Not for anything they actually do. Just failing to meet crazy high and impossible to reach standards these fans set on creators. To these people, failing to be absolutely perfect is the exact same as being the absolute worst human being ever.

And here’s something for you to think about. The people shitting on Voltron. They’re also shitting on people who just want to be happy and still enjoy Voltron. By your definition doesn’t that make them shitty and disgusting people. If you’re not  gross entitled brat you should be able praise and be happy about one thing, without bad mouthing and shitting on another thing.  If you can’t that says a lot more about you as a person than it does
me. Trying to build one thing up by tearing another thing down is a pretty awful thing to do.

Seriously though, @unpopularfanopinion is right.

Bi lance was a fan idea because someone asked Jeremy if Lance’s milkshake brought all the boys to the yard, he was put in a werid spot and just jokingly said yes. So all the crazy fans and that dumb reporter started claiming that Lance was in fact bi, when he had only show interest in women. He was however ignored when he claimed kl were brotherly and later when he flat out said that Lance was NOT bi to the reporters face.

Then people called him names for “shitting on the feelings of bi people”. The same people who called his neice a klance baby, called his relationships less cute than klance, spammed his social media with kl kl kl.

Then we had pakistani Adam. It started because leakira, the dumb as shit au happened and decided to reimagine Adam as pakistani. So people started claiming Adam was a gay Muslim who was killed off in canon. When canonically he wasn’t muslim at all. It was only meant to shit on the creators more.

The creators never said, we’d have gay rep. They said they were fighting for it. We got explicit Zethrid/Ezor because they were girls and minor characters, yes f/f is easily overlooked and allowed to pass because its f/f. The history of rep in kid’s media is proof that f/f is acceptable but m/m is not.

Also just a point, people don’t suck face or bang when they are breaking up. Just something you should know incase you feel that the breakup wasn’t gay enough.

Also about the claim of all the bad things happening to lgbt people? Krolia had to leave her family, husband died, has a m/f relationship. Haggar and Zarkon, one is dead and actually pretty much lost his beloved for him he pretty much died 10,000 years ago. Lotor and Allura, he betrayed her, Lance and Allura, Colleen and Sam, Hunk’s parents. Seriously bad shit has happened to all straight relationships in the show.

Also don’t even get me started on the whole Blaytz and the Galra servant bullshit, people grow old and die you know. They happened 10,000 years ago. Lgbt are nit immortal. I would know.

So no, these “promises” were never made by the writers, you guys had headcanons that you forced onto the show and then tried to force onto the creators and when they didn’t give you all more than a passing glance started hurling threats of death, rape, injury and more at them.

so that’s where the muslim Adam nonsense came from

Something of a workaround for tumblr’s bullshit

Put this in a search engine like Google or DuckDuckGo or something, and you’ll get a results page better than when Tumblr was actually somewhat working.

Just cross your fingers and hope that if you want to reblog something that the OP hasn’t been purged.

in b4 I get shadowbanned or something.

Since I’m post this regularly, here’s my twitter since I’m trying to be active over there too.

Twitter

Newgrounds is awesome! I only remembered it from when I was younger but someone suggested it to me and I gave it another look. I thought it was just for flash games but there’s lots of great art and videos too.

Funny how you have to use external search engines to search tumblr’s database …
