We Exist- we go waaaaaay back
Arabian wizard by Minsu Kim
I dunno about Arabian but definitely feeling the wizard vibe.
I used to like this site
I loved the freedom of creativity. The amazing art (a lot of it SFW), the memes, the thoughtful posts Iād sometimes see. Some really amazing interactions between fans and blogs. The ease and flexibility of the posts (usually). But now @staff decided to get rid of all of that in favor of alt-right, bots, etc. Apple isnāt even that great. I deleted the app from my phone, and it kind of hurt to do that. Just to throw it all away like that. It wasnāt just the adult content I liked, but just... I donāt know. It was more than that to me. To most of us. I felt like I could be myself, unfilitered, as I was. But now they just want to get rid of my identity like so many other places online. I want to be an adult, you know? Not... whatever they want now. Thereās no reason to use this if theyāre just going to be exactly like Facebook now. Iāll just... use Facebook, instead. Wow. Facebook is better than Tumblr now. I never thought Iād have to say that. Whoever is in charge of Tumblr should just be straight up fired. Their gross incompetence and inability to manage a successful site has lead to the death of one of their more lucrative properties. Weāll move on. I just wish it wasnāt this painful. @staff should have listened to the community. You would have been allowed back on the Apple store if you had, without alienating everyone who made your site what it was. If you really think anyoneās going to stick around when there are going to be better alternatives, youāre mistaken. Have fun with the bots and the nazis.
Verizon is leaving the engine of internet culture to sputter and die, and its communities to scramble for a new home.
A former staff engineer, who recently left Tumblr and asked to remain anonymous for professional reasons, tells Vox that the NSFW ban was āin the works for about six months as an official project,ā adding that it was given additional resources and named āProject Xā in September, shortly before it was announced to the rest of the company at an all-hands meeting. ā[The NSFW ban] was going to happen anyway,ā the former engineer told me. āVerizon pushed it out the door after the child pornography thing and made the deadline sooner,ā but the real problem was always that Verizon couldnāt sell ads next to porn.
Porn on Tumblr is something Verizon needs to wipe out if itās going to make any money off what it thinks is actually valuable about the platform ā enormous fandom and social justice communities that, just before the Verizon acquisition, Khalaf was insisting the staff figure out how to better monetize.
On that note-
Two former Tumblr employees said they were alarmed when Khalaf chose Black Lives Matter as an example of a community that the company should focus on converting into Yahoo media consumers. One told The Verge, āSimon explicitly said that Black Lives Matter was an opportunity to [make] a ton of money.ā
Capitalism is disgusting and ruins everything.
LETS LEAVE
I hope Verizon loses more than double what they bought Tumblr for, the dumbasses deserve it

@staff
A better, more positive Tumblr
Since its founding in 2007, Tumblr has always been a place for wide open, creative self-expression at the heart of community and culture. To borrow from our founder David Karp, weāre proud to have inspired a generation of artists, writers, creators, curators, and crusaders to redefine our culture and to help empower individuality.
Over the past several months, and inspired by our storied past, weāve given serious thought to who we want to be to our community moving forward and have been hard at work laying the foundation for a better Tumblr. Weāve realized that in order to continue to fulfill our promise and place in culture, especially as it evolves, we must change. Some of that change began with fostering more constructive dialogue among our community members. Today, weāre taking another step by no longer allowing adult content, including explicit sexual content and nudity (with some exceptions). Ā
Letās first be unequivocal about something that should not be confused with todayās policy change: posting anything that is harmful to minors, including child pornography, is abhorrent and has no place in our community. Weāve always had and always will have a zero tolerance policy for this type of content. To this end, we continuously invest in the enforcement of this policy, including industry-standard machine monitoring, a growing team of human moderators, and user tools that make it easy to report abuse. We also closely partner with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children and the Internet Watch Foundation, two invaluable organizations at the forefront of protecting our children from abuse, and through these partnerships we report violations of this policy to law enforcement authorities. We can never prevent all bad actors from attempting to abuse our platform, but we make it our highest priority to keep the community as safe as possible.
So what is changing?
Posts that contain adult content will no longer be allowed on Tumblr, and weāve updated our Community Guidelines to reflect this policy change. We recognize Tumblr is also a place to speak freely about topics like art, sex positivity, your relationships, your sexuality, and your personal journey. We want to make sure that we continue to foster this type of diversity of expression in the community, so our new policy strives to strike a balance.
Why are we doing this?
It is our continued, humble aspiration that Tumblr be a safe place for creative expression, self-discovery, and a deep sense of community. As Tumblr continues to grow and evolve, and our understanding of our impact on our world becomes clearer, we have a responsibility to consider that impact across different age groups, demographics, cultures, and mindsets. We spent considerable time weighing the pros and cons of expression in the community that includes adult content. In doing so, it became clear that without this content we have the opportunity to create a place where more people feel comfortable expressing themselves.
Bottom line: There are no shortage of sites on the internet that feature adult content. We will leave it to them and focus our efforts on creating the most welcoming environment possible for our community.
So whatās next?
Starting December 17, 2018, we will begin enforcing this new policy. Community members with content that is no longer permitted on Tumblr will get a heads up from us in advance and steps they can take to appeal or preserve their content outside the community if they so choose. All changes wonāt happen overnight as something of this complexity takes time.
Another thing, filtering this type of content versus say, a political protest with nudity or the statue of David, is not simple at scale. Weāre relying on automated tools to identify adult content and humans to help train and keep our systems in check. We know there will be mistakes, but weāve done our best to create and enforce a policy that acknowledges the breadth of expression we see in the community.
Most importantly, weāre going to be as transparent as possible with you about the decisions weāre making and resources available to you, including more detailed information, product enhancements, and more content moderators to interface directly with the community and content.
Like you, we love Tumblr and what itās come to mean for millions of people around the world. Our actions are out of love and hope for our community. We wonāt always get this right, especially in the beginning, but we are determined to make your experience a positive one.

You just killed your site because you couldn't handle banning porn bots wow. Enjoy the death of the site, staff. Thanks for the massive middle finger to the people who made your platform successful just because you couldn't handle not being in the Apple store.
*releases pack of dads into home depot* goā¦ā¦be free
invasive species encroach on lesbian territory
This is a common misconception because theyāre such similar environments, but you should be aware that dads are native to Home Depot, while lesbians are actually native to Loweās. At this point, however, both dads and lesbians have made themselves at home in both Home Depot and Loweās to the point that trying to separate them back into their original ranges would probably do more harm than good to the delicate ecosystem of large chain hardware stores.
A properly raised and socialized Dad will be perfectly comfortable cohabiting with Lesbians. Its not reallyĀ āencroaching on anotherās territoryā. You wouldnāt say that about foxes in a forest that also homes bobcats, would you? No. Itās just two different species that have both evolved to live in similar/the same environment. As long as they recognize each other as equals, Dads and Lesbians are more than capable of cohabitation.
Now, if you were to release a pack of Lumberjacks into a Lowes or Home Depot, thatās where chaos will reign. Being adapted to a far harsher and more demanding environment, the Lumberjacks would simply push Dads and Lesbians both out and also consume far more than a sustainable amount of resources. It would be like releasing bears at a country club.
As a former timber-harvester⦠I feel this is potentially accurate in theory. But highly improbable in actuality.
Lumberjacks, like most megafauna species generally require more space than the average hardware store, even a big box store could provide. The misconception is that Lumberjacks are a social species because of how they often work and live together.
This is a matter of necessity, not preference, and a survival technique for thriving under the LogBoss.
A āpackā of Lumberjacks, if not under the environmental pressure of a LogBoss will naturally disperse until they each have a wide territory.
Lumberjacks rarely fight for territory.
One on one, a Lumberjack could drive out a Dad or Lesbian, however the latter tend to travel in social packs.
Lumberjacks will passively retreat on the presence of large numbers of people. Kind of like Sasquatch.
Getting a āpackā of Lumberjacks assembled would be hard enough unless they were forced into a Hardware Store by a LogBoss. In that case, they would already be in a heightened and potentially agitated state far above their natural behavior. This artificial scenario can be likened to a circus animal running amok. If it had been in the wild, the incident would not have occurred.
Free-roaming Lumberjacks are the cryptids of the Hardware ecosystem. They are surprisingly quiet and unobtrusive.
Please stop labeling Lumberjacks as dangerous roving social predators. They are intermediate level omnivores and remarkably peaceful unless threatened.
This ma be my most favouritest sentence Iāve read all day:
Free-roaming Lumberjacks are the cryptids of the Hardware ecosystem.

All those harnesses are useful for climbing up so you can give him a hug. I also gave him a beard because he deserves one.
regarding all the hooplah about my work being reposted without credit: this is why. i really prefer retweets and reblogs, but if you must repost, this is what citing the creator had the power to do. removing us from the equation is denying us proper exposure to potential clients when this is the only means of income we have. edit: the article shown here is not about me!! i appreciate all the congrats comments but i was merely showing the power proper credit has.
Tube face.

Birds actually like to stick their heads in things and chirp/sing because of the way the sound waves bounce off the inside. Itās like the birb version of when you yell HELLOOOOO into a canyon to hear the echo :)

Hey everyone here is one of my personal projects that Iāve been working for awhile⦠finally, Iāve finished The concept is based on the art of the great Dave Rapoza, and also Iāve taken a lot of reference from the Warcraft movie by ILM as well.
