so i guess today people woke up and logged in just to see how crazy this censorship can get - now you can’t even see your own posts if they were (obviously incorrectly) marked as explicit. actually, there’s a way to see them.

you just have to go through the tag you use for your edits. posts that were marked explicit will look like this:

and if you click on the post, you’ll see this:

but take a look at the address bar

this is the post number. if you copy it and go to tumblr dot com/post number, you’ll see the post and will be able to edit it.

you can message support asking to review your post (since now it is the only way i believe) & also add a tag to your flagged posts to check if they’ve been unflagged.

YAAAAAS

[vodcar]

when the capitalists die out either thru global warming or revolution will we be able to start homegrown internet

[vodcar]

been reading about dual power and how to grow my own tomatoes and i’m wondering how and if we’ll be able to start commie internet lol

like obviously the internet is this huge electric capitalist controlled hardware infrastructure thing so after all that shuts down is there a way to do it ourselves lol

[vodcar]

i want to come home from a hard day on the communal allotment, kiss my Wife, crank up my generator, and start sharing meams!

GOOD NEWS: the homegrown commie internet is in the works! Across the world, people fighting against censorship and for a more democratic internet are building mesh networks (meshnets) of long-range wifi (LoRa)

Since wifi is just a standard for sending data through radio waves, and radio waves can go a pretty long way if you use ‘em right, it’s not that difficult to connect two computers by wifi from across town. Then you just keep adding more computers to the network and you’ve got internet!

Small antennae, like for connecting across the neighborhood, can literally be built out of trash

And a larger, more accurate one can be built pretty cheap too

(You can also reuse an old satellite TV dish, or really anything else that’s roughly parabolic)

There are LoRa meshnets in places like New York, India, and all over Europe: Spain (pictured below), Greece, Austria, Germany, etc

As for sharing fresh mëmês, the network to go to is Scuttlebutt. Unlike most social media, Scuttlebutt posts are stored on your computer and sent directly to your friends’ computers (rather than being stored on the cloud and sent to a central server). It works just fine over traditional internet, but you can also view and interact with it offline, and it has protocols for connecting over any means that two computers can share information - that includes LoRa, as well as hardwired connections, sneakernet (basically mailing a USB stick back and forth), etc

What that means is you always know that your info is just as safe as the network it’s sent on and the computer that receives it - no one even theoretically has the ability to collect and sell it all. And, since it’s all run on your computer, there’s no servers to go down or companies to go out of business that could destroy the whole thing

You can read more about this kind of stuff here (or here if it’s cloudy in Barcelona)!

there’s also the work being done by the DCPT, left-behind Detroiters meshing together their neighborhoods to share overpriced high-speed connections among the community and producing these good good educational documents, especially this rad resource page. building meshnets to share a global uplink is very similar to building meshnets for the purpose of intracommunication and these resources are useful in both cases

[anarchopuppy]

I’ve had a couple people ask about how to join/organize something like this, which is great! The best list of active projects I know of is here, though you should also do a search online if you don’t see one in your area in case they missed it. For those without a nearby group, put a pin here and try contacting nearby pins as well - you can use the instructions on buildyourowninter.net as well as the DCPT’s resources as linked above to get set up!

Please reblog this version so others can get involved!

[shoomlah]

was ruminating on twitter about how floaty Jim Hawkins’ features are—he’s all angles in profile, and then a sweet brooding anime boy from the front?? They don’t entirely reconcile, SO I took a quick pass at a more consistent Jim turnaround, with a few more anchor points and angles.

now I need to go do a ~*Soft Tortured Space Boyfriend*~ turnaround based on how he looks from the front, thank you for coming to my Ted Talk The Many Faces of Jim Hawkins

[shoomlah]

oh also this all started because I drew Homer as John SIlver and was trying to draw Bart as Jim, thank god some good came out of this clearly cursed image

[queeniecatart]

OP imma fite you for what you've done to my space dad

[olddcsart]

I’m still amazed by how many people don’t know what’s going on with Tumblr and don’t know what’s about to happen to a lot of their favorite artists here.

If you like someone’s art; you must follow them somewhere else lest you lose touch forever.

Most artists like me are having their follower count SHREDDED.

To be perfectly transparent: I have 11k followers on this account and most other accounts I have 1k or less.

That’s how many people are choosing NOT to follow artists like myself on other platforms (even SFW platforms) or even on my alt Tumblr that only has 300 of you there.

It’s extremely distressing and depressing for so many of us to have to start from scratch because of a law most all politicians in the U.S. fell for.

Please support adult content creators in this super fucking troubling time.

Interested in a commission from me but unsure where to begin using a new app? No problem! Above are some answers to questions I’ve gotten about tipping or commissioning me!

Commissions Are Open! Signal boosts are appreciated!

[lettyslair]

Hey so I have a Twitter, I don’t post there much but since tumblr really is a sinking ship if you wanna follow me there while I start changing gears and learn how to work Twitter you can follow me there under QueenieCatArt

I’m going to work on making a separate one for ns/fw stuff but it’s going to be very much so a work in progress.

[lettyslair]

BTW I just made a NSFW twitter

I’m gonna queue this post out a bunch lol so I hope yall don’t miss me if you want to follow my content still, it’s been a wild ride yall

[towerofglass]

Is now a bad time to mention I actually don’t hate this site? I hate the owners. Hate the staff. Hate the incompetence of whoever is in charge here.

But I love the site, love the format, love my mutuals, my followers and all of the amazing content creators here. I don’t know what I’ll replace this with if anything.

[blackqueerblog]

i wish somebody looked at me like the way he looked at that onion

[queeniecatart]

[sabrecmc]

I’ll be handing out slash fic under the “special secret table” at cons. Subscribe to my fanzine.

[scifigrl47]

Guys, I have a Yahoo mailing list that’s limited to thirty people, but we have to be careful, so make sure you always put disclaimers on each email about none of this is yours and TPTB shouldn’t sue you.

YES, you have yo put that on EVERY email, do you want to get shut down?!?

[liz-squids]

Don’t forget to delete the quoted text in email threads, so you don’t make people download unnecessary kilobytes. 

[kkglinka]

Just a quick reminder that any fic longer than 20 kilobytes will need to be broken into smaller segments. Don’t forget the manual line breaks because not everyone’s email application has automatic line wrapping. Happy posting!

[jen-kollic]

Stop putting images in your emails, we don’t all have 128k ADSL! And don’t forget the Yahoo mailbox storage limit is only 100MB.

Between that post going around that mentions the ridiculousness of parts of Strikethrough and talking with @lukadian about it and the BS tumblr purges, man, I kinda wish I could go back…tell my younger self to enjoy that moment…

Because sure it was some horrid BS but at least the call wasn’t coming from inside the house as it were (wrt to the fandom attitudes that definitely helped us get here once again) and at least you saw the user base not cheer on purging art and literature and survivor communities – and yes, even the lewdest most depraved fandom art/writing comm is art and literature.

I still have frigging fanmixes from Strikethrough ‘07
