FUCKING THIS POST ITSELF IS FLAGGED, I’M DYING! @staff YOUR BS IS KILLING ITSELF!!!!

[pencilsponyforge]

Dear Tumblr CEO and relevant staff-

I know you don’t give a fuck. I know your seat on the apple money throne is too high to hear the voices of your users, but here I go, shouting into the great void between us, into your grand safe space.

You make this lofty post of making a more inclusive and safe Tumblr, but all you do is attack people. you send your mindless bots after their blogs, you put them through days of hell, fighting for their craft, their livelihood, while your bots do nothing but attack innocent people, mes their timelines, flag their posts, delete their blogs, drive a wall between artists and their audience. 

I do not feel your “safe space”, all I feel is the distress of those hundreds of people confused and worried over this event and their loss of ability to enjoy the content i have provided them for free.

I work hard every day because i believe in my craft, i want to offer people a little sliver of escape from their everyday troubles, maybe shed some faint light of hope into their lives, make the life those few moments it takes to read my comics a more tolerable experience. I have been through hell in my own life, comics have saved my life many times over, and here you are, making that altruistic effort to share my experience of hope and escapism substantially harder. Repeatedly flagging my art as offensive, making these mindless accusations on my character and my work. And I do not seem to understand your “idea” of more positive experience. How is it more positive and inclusive to attack people bringing joy and entertainment to others? How does that great lofty goal is in any way advanced by your discriminatory practices? 

You must take people to be complete idiots if you expect them not to see that this is all about you hungering some apple money. Greed, not inclusivity, Moral posturing, not safety. Safety is freedom to express yourself, safety is ability to share your artistic vision without fear of loss of your livelihood and audience because some guy somewhere decides on your behalf if you have right to be heard or seen.

Ideas, even bad ones need to be shared so they can be judged and evaluated on their own merit. Was it then breasts or pastries. Censorship is never the inclusive, safe, tolerant solution. Never.

All you are doing is paving way to another round of puritanical witch hunts. So do posture as some moral paragon, put on airs of inclusivity all you want, but don’t bet on people being dumb enough to buy it when with one hand you go stabbing people in the back, while with other you are shaking hands with the devil in plain sight.

tl;dr Fuck you Tumblr, you ain’t inclusive, you are literally driving away people and attacking them, that’s the opposite of inclusive.

More things I loved about Ralph Breaks the Internet

-Sonic continuing to be The Exposition Guy™

-Felix calling Calhoun “Tammy” and how they’re just the most adorable and perfect couple ever

-”Look, I know you’ve been married six years and you wanna spice things up a little but adopting 15 children is the wrong kind of spice!” 

-The Sugar Rush racers being acknowledged as terrible brats even 6 years after their memories have been restored, meaning that was always a part of their personalities/programming regardless of King Candy’s meddling

-HOW ALL THE INTERNET AND WEBSITE BASED JOKES ARE ACTUALLY EXTREMELY CLEVER AND FUNNY

-KnowsMore making me feel guilty I never thank Google when I search for something

-Also KnowsMore in general? Seriously what a cutie?? Sweet grouchy purple boy who deserves love…. (though I wish Vanellope had said he sounded familiar or something… bit of a missed opportunity)

-Spamley, basically an anthropomorphic pop-up ad, being portrayed sort of sympathetically. He’s obviously involved with some shady stuff, but at the same time it’s made clear he isn’t really a bad person.

-I have had Gord for 5 minutes but if anything happened to him I would kill everyone in this room and then myself. Smol and pure noodle arm baby, I will protect him, I want to see him grow up healthy, I will tell my friends and neighbors about him

-Just how dang positive and chill Shank and her crew are despite being from a game that’s basically a combination of GTA and Saints Row if it was programmed by Nyarlathotep (and what’s funny is they remind me of a couple of my OCs that were inspired by the first WIR who also happen to be a street racing gang), and just like all the games made up for the original I would totally play the hell out of Slaughter Race if it were a real game

-YESSS, MY QUEEN, MY PERFECT BEAUTIFUL WIFE PLEASE LET ME MARRY YOU AND EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOUR AMAZING OUTFITS❤️ I wouldn’t mind a three-way with your assistant in the bowtie in suspenders either

-The fact every single viral video that Ralph makes absolutely would become a meme and you fucking know it, like I’m legit a little bit terrified at how well the filmmakers understand the internet

-The entire Oh My Disney sequence, from the baby Groot AMA to the Stan Lee cameo (*clutches heart*) to Vanellope and the princesses. The 1960s Batman style scene transition to them all wearing casual clothes MURDERED ME. Also the fact they made Merida’s dialogue even MORE unintelligible than what’s in the trailer.

-How the movie actually says word-for-word “First rule of the internet: Don’t read the comments.”

-Double Dan’s voice??? Because “Slimy British gangster” was the absolute last thing I expected the Globgogabgalab’s evil twin to sound like. Thanks, Alfred Molina?????

-The part where Ralph is looking for something amidst a bunch of rubble and ruin and it takes a moment before you realize this is the remains of now defunct websites, including a destroyed sign for Geocities.

Program: manuelruder/artistic-videos. There are much faster style transfer programs for video, but they all either sacrifice quality or don’t support arbitrary style images

Doom wads: Thunderpeak, Smooth Doom

A 20th century revue, as performed by Ivy Pepper.   The intended horizontal format is here. It’s got some flow that way. Reformatting for tumblr turned out to be a bit awkward. If anyone’s interested, I’ll add some notes to this post about the dances, art styles and fashions depicted here.  (The 60s are doubled up because they changed so much from one end to the other and I couldn’t decide what to focus on.) —————————— Lackadaisy is on Patreon - there’s extra stuff!
