how fucking funny would it be if the new tumblr monetization strategy of "employ the bare minimum amount of staff to keep the lights on and never update anything" actually ends up being the secret sauce that makes this site finally turn a profit after three different CEOs over a decade and a half drove themselves insane trying

the idea of using tumblr as a twitter alternative is incomprehensible. it's like if your local walmart closed down and you started doing all your grocery shopping at the cursed antique store from needful things
A+ example of how the media manipulates people for clicks and anger engagement.
international people start calling our country aotearoa instead of new zealand challenge
aotearoa is the te reo name for our country, commonly translated as "land of the long white cloud" as the story goes Kupe was guided to our whenua by following a long white cloud in the sky. new zealand is a name which was forced on us by colonizers who stole our precious land less than 200 years ago. by reverting back to the māori name you are metaphorically giving the land back to the tangata whenua, the people of the land, and we can begin to normalize using the proper names for things that should have always belonged to māori
heres a link to a good pronunciation, i recommend practicing saying it along to the video. but please remember that even if you cant get it perfect, say it anyway!! its better to try and get it slightly wrong than not try at all
what's the correct adjective for someone from Aotearoa please? I can imagine English speakers will say Aotearoan, but is there a more indigenous way to say this? What's the preferred way?
just say kiwi, that's what we use anyway, most of us hate the kupu new zealander and have been using kiwi for decades
affirmations for when you have to send emails
We need a lesbian version of bear culture bc a lot of self labeled dykes still think fat ppl are gross and undesirable. We should have a community where if youre fat and hairy or warm and fuzzy wlw youre not the bottom of the barrel like we’ve seen with the popular white cis wlw aesthetic.
Being fat and hairy isnt just normal its hot. And im tired of pretending otherwise 😤
absolutely dying at this comment someone left on an episode of zhen huan
some of the people yall call "just a dude" are so not it. ive never watched supernatural but i can guarantee none of the men on there are worthy of the "just a dude" title. rory williams on the other hand
It's hilarious to me that Al Capone was an amazing tipper. I get why it took so long to catch him.
Me and the other caddies watching Al Capone beat a guy to death with a golf club after he gave each of us the 2022 equivalent of $1600
