I'm abandoning Tumblr altogether. Any site that routinely refuses to listen to their own fanbase and insists on machine moderation when it keeps fucking up everything BUT the shit they're targeting, and then just nukes an entire genre of content for good measure is not a hill I want to even fortify, let alone die on. And this is just the beginning.
Rest in pieces, you fucking hellsite.
@staff You fucked it up.
stolen crown
criticizing childrens media is important and absolutely necessary but when i say i dont want discourse about kids shows im not saying ‘dont call out the racism in thia show, its for kids, it doesnt matter’ what im saying is no i dont want to see essays on why catra from she ra is an irredeemable abuser written by a 26 year old who doesnt go outside

Every time.
Every time I see this, I lose my shit.
EVERY. TIME.
I don’t know if it’s the context itself, Joker’s fucking smile before it happens, the complete lack of captions, that you only see Batman’s fist. But it’s the funniest fucking thing I have ever seen, and it cracks me up every single time.
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS IT’S BACK
When the Boss Says, ‘Don’t Tell Your Coworkers How Much You Get Paid’
The HR manager tried to convince me that the offer was competitive. She told me that she couldn’t offer more because it would be unfair to other paralegals. She said that if we did not agree to a salary that day, then she would have to suspend me because I would be working past the allowed temp phase. I insisted that she look into a higher offer and she agreed that we could meet again later. Before I left, she had something to add.
“Make sure you don’t talk about your salary with anyone,” she said sweetly, as if she was giving advice to her own son. “It causes conflict and people can be let go for doing it.” (This is to the best of my recollection, not verbatim.)
It wasn’t all that surprising to hear this from a corporate HR manager. What was surprising was the déjà vu.
Just three months earlier, some of my coworkers at the coffee shop told me that our bosses, who worked in the office on salaries, and even the owner, got a higher cut of the tips than we did. One barista told me that when she complained about it, the managers reduced her hours.
When you make minimum wage and have to fight for more than 30 hours per week, tips are pretty important, so I sat down with my managers to discuss the controversy. That’s when they told me not to talk about it with the other baristas. The owner “hates it when people talk about money,” my manager added, and “would fire people for it if he could.” I sulked back to the espresso machine, making my lattes at half speed and failing to do side work.
In both workplaces, my bosses were breaking the law.
Under the National Labor Relations Act of 1935 (NLRA), all workers have the right to engage “concerted activity for mutual aid or protection” and “organize a union to negotiate with [their] employer concerning [their] wages, hours, and other terms and conditions of employment.” In six states, including my home state of Illinois, the law even more explicitly protects the rights of workers to discuss their pay.
This is true whether the employers make their threats verbally or on paper and whether the consequences are firing or merely some sort of cold shoulder from management. My managers at the coffee shop seemed to understand that they weren’t allowed to fire me solely for talking about pay, but they may not have known that it is also illegal to discourage employees from discussing their pay with each other. As NYU law professor Cynthia Estlund explained to NPR, the law “means that you and your co-workers get to talk together about things that matter to you at work.” Even “a nudge from the boss saying ‘we don’t do that around here’ … is also unlawful under the National Labor Relations Act,” Estlund added.
And yet, gag rules thrive in workplaces across the country. In a report updated this year, the Institute for Women’s Policy Research found that about half of American employees in all sectors are either explicitly prohibited or strongly discouraged from discussing pay with their coworkers. In the private sector, the number is higher, at 61 percent.
Damn managers have definitely told me this before
Always reblog
adding to this on the subject of medical/family leave:
a coworker of mine (and integral part of a voluntary team he and I are the sole members of) had to have foot surgery and was told he’d need six weeks to recuperate. when he went to HR they told him his best option was to resign and then reapply for his same job after his 6 week recovery time.
he originally asked them if he could take those weeks as unpaid time off, and was about to take their “quit and come back” offer because they made it sound like the only option. this would have cancelled the very same healthcare he was using to pay for the treatment in the first place.
this is a fairly common tactic HR managers will try to use to scare workers out of taking any leave at all, or force you to reduce the amount of time you are “unproductive.”
it is also illegal under the federal Family and Medical Leave Act - http://www.dol.gov/whd/fmla/
you are entitled to twelve full weeks of (unpaid) time off to care for a family member or to recuperate from medical conditions. the explicit qualifying scenarios are listed on the website above.
you are entitled to keep your job and return to your position on completion. any repercussion/dismissal from your company is illegal. do not get bullied out of your job for medical treatments you or a family member needs. if you are in a situation where you are being forced to quit for a situation that qualifies under FMLA you should contact a lawyer.
TO REITERATE: IT IS ILLEGAL TO BE FIRED FOR DISCUSSING PAY WITH FELLOW EMPLOYEES. IT IS A TYPE OF WORKER/UNION SUPPRESSION.
“Live-action Lion King”
it’s not… live action… “photorealistic” does not mean “live action” those aren’t real talking lions dude. there are no humans in the movie. none of the action is live. its cg animation. there’s nothing wrong with cg animation! just say it’s cg. it’s not live action. just because it’s not stylized and cartoony doesn’t mean it’s live action. stop calling it live action
it sure was nice
So which relative is paying for their group therapy sessions
Can we take a second to appreciate how badly @staff has screwed themselves over?
Rather than immediately jumping on the problem and containing it before it became such a large issue, they turned a blind eye to a rampant infestation of bots accounts and child predators openly expressing a desire to exchange illegal material for months.
Apple finally brings the ban hammer down on the official Tumblr app in the App Store, saying they need to get things sorted out because the app has become a safe haven for predators.
The Tumblr staff panics, because if their app isn’t on the App Store, they won’t be able to update and fix their notoriously bug ridden and barely functional mobile app.
Trying to appease Apple and have the mobile app put back on the App Store, the staff hastily programs a bot designed to detect and delete bot accounts, then proceeds to unleash it on the site, giving it authorization to immediately delete any bot accounts it detects without requiring a staff member to review whether the account is indeed a bot or contains illegal material.
The bot deletes a large portion of the bot accounts, but in a programming error that was obviously overlooked as the staff rushed to program and release it, the bot also deleted every account that has ever had a bot interact with it via a reblog or like.
Which, given this is an issue that’s been occurring for months, is a large portion of tumblr.
TL;DR
Tumblr staff chose to ignore a rampant problem with child predators and bot accounts for months, and Apple removed Tumblr from the App Store as a result.
Tumblr staff panicked and released a bot to try and nuke the accounts of the bots causing problems, which accidentally nuked the accounts of everyone the bots reblogged from as well.
Well done.
Revolver voted Prequelle the best album of 2018!
if u weren’t aware of salvation army’s homophobia, its prety hardcore
a guy in a salvos truck yelled at me and my gf while we were kissing today so I was thinking of this
Do you know, when I was in high-school I went to the mall near my house with my girlfriend to do some Christmas shopping.
We were there, sixteen year old me and seventeen year old her, holding hands and window-shopping, minding our own business.
This Salvation Army shitheel gets aggro about it in the middle of the mall and I’m there totally flabbergasted cause like, it’s christmas
Only, 16!Tabi had even less composure than 26!Tabi, so I lost my fucking mind on her.
Thing is: when I’m really angry, I don’t rage, I go all cold and apparently that freaks people out, because I could see my gf backing up and the lady getting tense and then I realized that anger doesn’t solve problems.
So instead, I started wailing.
Picture this: 5’4, tiny, blonde haired high school girl with her little violin on her back and pearls in her ears just as PTA-approved as could be, full on sobbing in the hallway.
Just, sobbing like my dog’s been shot.
Now my gf’s like, “oh fuck” and the lady’s like “oh fuuuuck!” and I’m here, head thrown back, tears down my cheeks and in that shrill, distressed, /loud/ voice, “WHY WOULD YOU B-b-be so MEAN?! It’s CHRISTMAS!”
And the lady’s like “please stop Oh fuck” because now we have a crowd, and this Molly Weasley of a woman putters over, “what’s the matter, dear?”
And mall security’s coming and this bell ringer is looking very uncomfortable so I just look at this matronly ellen-watching suburban housewife lady, eyes wide and wet and my lip wobbling.
“I was, she s-said, s-s-she said I was going to HELL!”
And I burst right back into tears.
Maaaaaaaan, they didn’t even stick around to ask why she’d said it. Soon as I said it, Mall po-po bounced her like a fucking pogo stick.
We get outside and my girlfriend’s like “that is the most Slytherin thing I have ever seen anyone do.”
It was four years before I saw the Army back in that mall.
that is beautiful
Holiday reminder: don’t let anyone get away with trying to make you feel bad about yourself.
They are also violently transphobic, and Salvation Army ran homeless shelter refused to let in Jennifer Gale because she was trans, leading to her freezing to death on the sidewalk right outside it!
So yeah, they’re not just ‘homophobic’, they’re bigoted fucking murderers.
(Wikipedia article on her death conveniently (for SA) omits Salvation Army connection, linking only to expired articles from local newspapers)
SA claims that they didn’t turn her away, and accept all homeless people, except, it’s not like Jennifer Gale was only trans woman refused shelter by Salvation Army, making this denial appear to be worth less than bullshit:
https://thinkprogress.org/salvation-army-refuses-housing-shelter-to-transgender-woman-2660c79b4cd4#.bo53qrxf9
http://www.msnbc.com/way-too-early/transgender-woman-claims-she-was-refused-housing
and to think i was gonna help my aunt with this…
Annual reminder not to trust what our SA donations actually support.
There are plenty of other charities who help out the needy this time of year. Support a local food bank or community housing center.
THIS IS SO IMPORTANT I’ve told ppl this but now I have sources
Salvation Army are scum. Judgemental assholes.
And let’s all remember that one twitter thread from a homeless woman in a Salvation Army shelter SPECIFICALLY warning people that the SA is a piece of shit and nobody should donate to them
🎊Tis the season for reminders: Salvation Army is a horrifically conservative as well as plainly ineffective charity that runs more like a business. And actively spreading reasons not to support them helps them wither amd make room for more productive and hollistic charities.
Another great seasonal reminder: Slytherins are awesome 🐍🐍🐍
It doesn’t run like a business. Businesses have to pay the women who work for them.
ABSOLUTE WARNING, REBLOG THIS ASAP.
this is a bit of an emergency BAD NEWS AHEAD If you use Tumblr, backup your stuff right now and make a post redirecting your followers to another account, Twitter or something like that Apple removed Tumblr from the App Store because their porn bot problem got too big, and they don’t allow explicit NSFW apps Tumblr, like the galaxy-brained geniuses they are, are going on a spree and deleting lots of NSFW blogs Even famous artists like cutesexyrobots and eigaka got their blogs purged, so ACT QUICK
@support and @staff are a bunch of braindead, incompetent morons who can’t code for shit. They don’t know what a bot is, so they purge accounts with actual people behind them. How can they be that stupid?
Know what’s even worse?
The bots are still there.
