Drunklander

I like beer. I kind of like Outlander. I like drinking beer while talking about Outlander. Link spam and word-vomit. *here there be book spoilers* (she/they)

I know you said your done with outlander but will you watch the prequel series Blood of my Blood?

I’ll probably watch the first ep at least, but not until all the eps are out so if I like it I can just binge it. And just as a casual viewer, I have no plans to engage in fandom stuff around it. 🤷🏻

Congrats on seeing Bear perform live!! He’s one of my favorite composers in general, like say what you want about Outlander but the music is absolutely a 10/10

Yeah, it was a really fun show! I found out about it by chance and I'm glad I did. I've been a fan of his since Battlestar and he played some from that (including the All Along the Watchtower cover that I've been obsessed with for like decades, haha) and a bit from Black Sails. The Outlander theme was the encore, but that's too big a video file to post.

Happy New Year!!!

I don’t even go here anymore but I always subject the fandom to my ridic cat cards, so happy holidays from me and Persephone!

Even if you skip the last few seasons, I would quite simply LOVE to hear your recaps of 7B. It's going to be a wild ride.

The hyperfixation phase of my fandom participation is p much done, but if the new eps inspire drunken recaps I’ll let it happen. No promises tho. Like p much all my friends from this fandom have moved on into just being actual friends outside of this thing so like I don’t so much have the ties that I used to that make me feel compelled to post things.

Hi, Tumblr. It’s Tumblr. We’re working on some things that we want to share with you. 

AI companies are acquiring content across the internet for a variety of purposes in all sorts of ways. There are currently very few regulations giving individuals control over how their content is used by AI platforms. Proposed regulations around the world, like the European Union’s AI Act, would give individuals more control over whether and how their content is utilized by this emerging technology. We support this right regardless of geographic location, so we’re releasing a toggle to opt out of sharing content from your public blogs with third parties, including AI platforms that use this content for model training. We’re also working with partners to ensure you have as much control as possible regarding what content is used.

Here are the important details:

We already discourage AI crawlers from gathering content from Tumblr and will continue to do so, save for those with which we partner. 

We want to represent all of you on Tumblr and ensure that protections are in place for how your content is used. We are committed to making sure our partners respect those decisions.

To opt out of sharing your public blogs’ content with third parties, visit each of your public blogs’ blog settings via the web interface and toggle on the “Prevent third-party sharing” option. 

For instructions on how to opt out using the latest version of the app, please visit this Help Center doc. 

Please note: If you’ve already chosen to discourage search crawling of your blog in your settings, we’ve automatically enabled the “Prevent third-party sharing” option.

If you have concerns, please read through the Help Center doc linked above and contact us via Support if you still have questions.

TLDR: tumblr sold out to ai but they gave us the option to opt out. go to visibility in your blog settings and click the prevent third party sharing button
