Am I blowing the whole Tumblr not allowing NSFW ,because they can’t be assed to moderate the wrong things out, of proportion? Possibly.

But I’d love to hear any media people go to commonly in case the user base tanks. I barely have NSFW but may not be the case for followers. I got a Twitter but not strong like my Tumblr presence sadly.

Anyway the last point I have to make here is that even if tumblr breaks under the algorithm (almost certain if they don’t back out of using it) and/or everybody leaves… I don’t have anywhere else to go or post things

people like to joke about it being bad, but I legitimately really like Tumblr. it actually feels like a blogging platform in a world where facebook and twitter are active political weapons that manipulate us elections. i don’t feel like i’m baring myself to content i don’t want to see here, or having to engage with a popularity-focused culture. the content isn’t sorted to influence you or trick you. it’s a bunch of people being themselves on their own terms. it’s oldnet.

yes, i do use other websites, but i’m not interested in posting personal things to any of them. this was a place i had control over and i’ll stay with it until i can’t. and when that happens there’ll be nothing left.

Me as a kid: There’s no way Jessie and James are in their twenties! People have their shit together by then.

Me now: Wow okay yeah these broke disasters drowning in debt and picking up part-time gigs to supplement the meager pay from their crap job working for an evil boss are ONE THOUSAND PERCENT in their twenties, huh.

They’re 15 and 16 last time I checked

Jessie and James have been confirmed 25 in the anime since the 2nd movie (and before that if we’re looking at radio dramas)

…how come they aged and ash didn’t?
