Let's start a revolution.

… they come with tattoos these days. Pseudo-intellectual journalist who still hasn't figured out feminism, prefers animals over humans, and has always been a better bartender than student. I hate the cold yet I keep going to Russia in the winter. I'm a rainstorm, a fire, and trainwreck, all wrapped up in ribbons, and lace. A fistful of roadside flowers raised, just to throw in a dime store vase. I think dying in a healthy body would be a waste. I do my own stunts. And I'll take it personally if you say something against the Weakerthans.

Oh these are lovely! Posts about hilariously bad punctuation become depressing after a while. How joyful to celebrate the witty and masterful!

Gross porn blogs:

What is it about my page that entices you? I’m not interested! Get lost!

[bitter-trans-lesbian]

The bots are using tumblr to scam Google.

Let’s say someone is looking for porn and they put “wife caught her husband cheating,” into Google. There are a lot of porn sites (and some news sites) with that title. So Google has to decide which order to show them in, because most of the time, people pick something off the first few pages of Google.

Google wants to have the very best “wife caught her husband cheating” (or whatever else you search for) sites on the first page of the search. Google has several ways to try and decide which site are the best, but one of them is that it looks at how popular it is by seeing how many other websites link to it. If a lot of other sites are linking to it, it was probably useful to them, so Google will put it on the front page.

So if I’m a sleazy pornsite owner, I could create like a thousand websites and make them all link to my “wife caught her husband cheating” site, and act like a whole bunch of different websites thought it was pretty great. They’d be like “xdfgt .com”, “xdfgy .com”, “xdfgh .com,” just nonsense addresses nobody else was using, or whatever. I’d try to make Google think my site was awesome, because all these other websites are linking to it.

But Google has already caught on to that. Google would know “xdfgt .com” was a crappy fake website, because nobody else is linking to “xdfgt .com”. Any website that is only linked to by crap websites is also crap, as far as Google is concerned. Google won’t put it on the first pages of search results.

So instead let’s imagine the sleazy pornsite owner creates a thousand fake tumblrs instead, like “xdfgt.tumblr .com” and “xdfgy.tumblr .com” and “xdfgh.tumblr .com” and just puts one or two posts on them to add links to the “wife caught her husband cheating” porn site. Google can still tell those tumblrs are crap websites, because nobody else is linking to them. But the difference is … on tumblr, the sleazy pornsite owner can make your website link to him.

Let’s say your tumblr is “mostlyaestheticandfunny.tumblr .com”. If “xdfgt.tumblr .com” likes one of your posts, there’s link on your blog to “xdfgt.tumblr .com.” Somewhere on “mostlyaestheticandfunny.tumblr .com” it will say “xdfgt liked this” with a link from your blog to “xdfgt.tumblr .com.”

Google’s bot looks at “mostlyaestheticandfunny.tumblr .com” and it sees that your blog is a good website. People are linking to it (talking to you or reblogging from you), you write like an actual human being, you have nice pictures, you update sometimes, you aren’t a bot. So Google decides your blog isn’t a crappy scam website. Then it sees the link to “xdfgt.tumblr .com” and it thinks “oh hey, a nice website with good stuff written by a real human linked to this “xdfgt.tumblr .com” I guess maybe “xdfgt.tumblr .com” is a decent website too.”

Then it looks at “xdfgt.tumblr .com” and it sees the link to the porn site with “wife caught her husband cheating”, and it says, “well, I guess that “wife caught her husband cheating” site is a good site. I know that because there’s a good site linking to it here at “xdfgt.tumblr .com.” I know “xdfgt.tumblr .com” is a good site because “mostlyaestheticandfunny.tumblr .com” linked to it, and I know “mostlyaestheticandfunny.tumblr .com” is a good site because it is updated and writes like a real person and people talk to it and link to it.”

So basically the porn bots are using the fact that you have a good blog to make themselves look better and to try and trick Google’s bot into thinking they’re very popular and it should put them at the top of its list when people search Google for porn.

It’s really annoying! It would be really nice if the people running tumblr figured out a way to not be free advertising for every sleazy porn site on the internet

FINALLY AN EXPLANATION

[relyabittooheavily]

First of all, thanks. Second, need to remember this.

I have a pit in my stomach cause I think I made a HUGE mistake at work. One that would result in consequences for the company and my firing. I don't know yet if I really did. And if I did I think it may a) not be the worst case scenario (but still very bad) and b) not have been entirely my fault. But it may also be the worst case scenario AND entirely my fault.

I also had a drunken 4am phonecall two weeks ago where nothing really truly bad happened, like, it was fine, but it left me absolutely convinced that nobody is ever going to love me again and my life is never going to be what I want it to be. I met someone and I felt like something truly beautiful was within arm's reach, not just love, maybe not even love at all, but a life I'd want, one that didn't just happen but that I could grab and shape with intention. You know? But on the phone at 4am I felt like that was never meant for me. Beautiful beaches and watching boats and drinking champagne in the dirtiest, most run down apartment I've ever seen, inhabited by at least 24 guitars and a beautiful boy with a drinking problem. It sounds like heaven to me, down to the blood stains on the mattress.

[relyabittooheavily]

Update, my mistake at work was entirely my fault, but when I confessed to legal, the lady was only a little confused and classified it as "a mild nuisance, for you and nobody else, so I don't care."

I will not lose my job, folks. I overthought myself into gastritis-territory.

I wonder if you think of me, I wonder if I haunt you the same way as you do me.
