i need to know if the people who say "gif not jif, because graphics not jraphics", also pronounce (LL) SIFAS as "sayfos" (sci-fi, but sci-fos) "because idol not eedol" and "all not al"

...unless everyone actually pronounces it that way

i think tumblr deleted one of my secondary blogs.

EDIT: TUMBLR FINALLY REPLIED!

Considering redirects are an actual security concern, there's not much I can disagree with. I just wish there was an official way to perform redirects (with the intention of just updating the blog name), or at least, an official way to change your blog name without having to update links from inside your blog. (if someone else linked to your blog, then they must do it manually)

Anyway. I consider this issue solved.

========== ORIGINAL POST BELOW ===========

i didn't delete it. but it suddenly went missing from my list of blogs.

tumblr says it's currently in use:

...but at the same time, it's not accessible.

maaaaaaybe someone stole it (is that even possible?) and made it a private blog.

or maybe tumblr deleted it for the lulz 😎

who knows.

@staff hasn't responded to my bug report after 9 days, so i guess i get to tag them in this post :p

it was a redirect blog so i didn't lose any posts, but i needed it for maintaining site navigation for my still active extras blog. if tumblr would just let me re-register the blog URL again, this wouldn't be a big deal, but here we are.

(actually, if tumblr would let me edit existing long-ass text posts, i'd be able to manually fix this - i.e. specify the correct links instead of relying on a redirect blog - but i've already submitted that bug to tumblr years ago and it's still not fixed AFAIK. probably no intention to fix it anymore because they limited new text posts to 30 images only, so uhhh, fuck my legacy blogs i guess)

i once spoiled your lie in april for a few people, so i guess it's karma that someone spoiled (what i'm assuming to be) the dad's name in oshi no ko for me.

😒

(lawliet. the dad's name is lawliet.)

So. I got a Lumix ZS50. Hell yeah.

…

I’m not loving it so far. 🙃

To be fair to it I haven’t brought it out for a complete field test yet… so let’s do that before I write it off.

[gelo-p-side]

some field tests have been conducted, and goddamn.

i’m starting to love it.

although i have ran into all its limitations already, LOL.

some of them are workable... others, ehh. not so much.

let’s just say that right now, it’s proven that it’s worth what i paid for it.

but i need more.

After spending 2 weeks deciding w/c travel camera will be replacing my bulky XT20...

...I spent another 48 hours coding a script to check which of my old photos are going to be impossible to replicate (based on EXIF) using the candidates.

And then I concluded I'm broke. 💸💸💸

I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but what the fuck, man. ‘bohemian rhapsody’ would have been way less sus.
