One legitimately weird thing about Tumblr is that we literally can’t code for shit, many people quit working at Tumblr due to a hostile work environment, and we can’t seem to program a simple blogging website to not flood your RAM.

KICK THE CAN!

Let’s play the biggest game of kick the can on the internet.

To kick the can, reblog it. I wanna see how long this can go on for.

[visibun]

the oldest reblogs for this post that i can find are from january 2nd of 2013. this can has been getting kicked around tumblr for almost 13½ years now

[drtanner]

And yet somehow this is my first time kicking it!

[ditto-the-alien]

the "trending" is now so much worse to use.

How has this comic made such a groundbreaking cultural impact without getting over 40k notes

[ditto-the-alien]

Posting this separately too so I can spread the word.

Don't sign up for Hockay.

There's AI slop art everywhere, the GitHub has Claude files, there's a fucking merch store with the ai slop... Its nothing but a miserable pile of slop.

I honestly feel betrayed.

[kosmosxipo]

I’m not in a place to post this to my Blaseball blog but

the fabled Hlockey had appeared

Hockay—The Almighty Ice has appeared.

Across twenty cities, The Ice has appeared. And where The Ice appears, there is Hockay. Pre-register for the First Ever Season.

[ditto-the-alien]

Don't.

There's AI slop art everywhere, the GitHub has Claude files, there's a fucking merch store with the ai slop... Its nothing but a miserable pile of slop.

tumblr's shooting itself in the foot, twitter is a cesspit, bluesky is full of boring liberals, fediverse is still hard to use

truly, now, is finally the time for blaseball.com to add posting

[shocklight]

I think it's been long enough that I can Post about this (lol) we actually were really close to releasing Posting at one point

by which I mean management were really close to releasing Posting, but our Sensible Community Director looked at how much work would be involved and how the entire community team would instantly drop dead from stress and said "hey how about we do a little test run first?"

and it was pure chaos. we had very minimal moderation tools while the rest of the staff had free reign to Post, with some given a specific role to fulfil while Posting, like

Lost Elderly Grandmother

Seven People Who Are All One Guy's Sockpuppets

Polite Ultra Right-Wing Troll Who's "Just Asking Questions"

The Real Timothy Chalamet

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. new and original ways to get around the swearing filter. a four-thousand emoji-long skateboard trick. ascii shitposting.

after that uproarious 8-hour slack call it went back to the drawing board, to try to figure out more robust filtering and stronger moderation tools

not that it matters, because four months later it was over for good.

nobody will ever Post on blaseball.com again.

and that's probably a good thing.

[ditto-the-alien]

dear god.

*places an orange just outside a fairy ring to see what comes out* science is more of an art than a science

[theunfairfolk]

*the orange grows legs and skitters away*

[clinical-manners]

Fascinating results *places a banana in the same spot*

[kingscrown666]

*clawed hand reaches out of the ether and drags it into the ring, leaving ragged claw marks in the soil as it disappears, back into the ether from whence it came*

“let’s go to the extreme.” *places a pineapple in the same spot*

[yallidarityforever]

Real scientists would keep putting an orange in the same spot to make sure the results are consistent before moving on to other fruits or different spots.

[clinical-manners]

The only valid response to this post.

[elodieunderglass]

We’re working up the complexity levels of fruit until we feel there is enough evidence to support the judicious placement of a volunteer twink

[cannibal-cupcakes]

[elodieunderglass]

You sit down, we haven’t seen what’s happened to the pineapple

[mias-back-from-the-dead]

#this is tumblr we’ve all seen what’s happened to the pineapple
