why is pjackk back unbanned?

^^^ i spent all night and yesterday compiling information about a "phantom report bug", where people are getting emails from tumblr support about TOS reports they did not file. pjackk was banned off one of these phantom reports, i told tumblr support about it, and now he's unbanned. i think @garaks-padded-bra was also banned erroneously off a phantom report, so hopefully that will get reversed soon as well

PLEASE CHECK YOUR EMAIL FOR PHANTOM REPORT EMAILS. if you spot any, even if theyre old, tell me about them so i can add them to the list (linked above), and report them to tumblr support. POLITELY. tumblr support wants to fix this.

[3liza]

i gotta be real with you guys im just sort of stunned tumblr has been running an open-front ZenDesk form for tumblr TOS reporting this whole time that doesnt require any kind of validation except a fucking email address. this one fact alone explains every single "why did so and so get banned for no reason" event of the past X years. however it is equally baffling that i didnt notice it before now. i would say it is baffling they implemented it in the first place but like i said, the management of their website is verifiably not well

[lizardsister]

it's a moral failing to still be a harry potter fan

[lizardsister]

if you ever worry to yourself that still liking harry potter makes you a bad person it's because it does

Jonathan Joss was an Indigenous, gay man who was murdered on the first day of Pride month as well as Indigenous History Month. He died protecting his trans husband. Homophobia and racism aren’t marks of the past, and this is a heart breaking reminder of that.

Praying for a safe journey back to the spirit world, Uncle ❤️‍🩹🦅

[felysha]

Today is the anniversary of the death of Jonathan Joss (King of the Hill, Parks and Rec). Jonathan Joss was an Indigenous, gay man who died protecting his transgender husband, on the first day of Pride month. Today we remember him and how he protected his family.

"she thinks this is bonding behavior" my friend this has BECOME your bonding behaviour

[grungekitty-77]

It's happening again, so just to remind everyone:

TUMBLR ADS ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO AUTO-PLAY AUDIO! THAT IS A BUG AND YOU SHOULD REPORT IT!

"This ad is auto-playing audio" is literally on the drop down menu for reporting an ad. Tumblr isn't trying to implement this! Don't protest this "new policy", cause it's not one.

Report the broken ads.

Thank you.

[jackson-imbecille]

They are not supposed to automatically redirect you without you clicking them, they are not supposed to cause a pop-up, they are not supposed to freeze your screen.

This is all bugs or malicious advertising which is also against tumblers ad policy. You should report all ads which do this.

Let’s get rid of those horrible monopoly ads, together.

[kristianasquill]

You know what? Forget the discourse. This is no longer my hill to die on.

You wanna ship canonically aspec characters because “aro/ace people can still date/have sex”? Okay, then. LET’S DO IT.  I wanna see an aromantic character with an alloromantic love interest. I wanna see that confession of undying love and the moment when the aro character says they will never feel the same way—not romantically.

I wanna see the asexual character with their allosexual partner. I wanna see that moment when the ace characters tries sex with their partner for the first time because they want to make them happy only to realize that they are 100% sex repulsed.

I wanna see the two demiromantics who don’t even know if what they feel is romantic attraction, but they adore each other and just want to make healthy snacks together and destroy each other at Mario Kart.

I wanna see the two aces who love sensual affection and are figuring out what they define as sexual or not.

I wanna see the romance + sex neutral aroace who happily and consensually does whatever makes their partner happy…but their partner still struggles with feeling undesired. 

Oh, babe. You thought shipping an aspec character would be just like shipping an allo character?

nah sorry Sam Reid is one of the most beautiful men in the world. It's a beautiful cast overall, but he's the most gorgeous one in it, and most people are going to feel that way. That's why he's playing Lestat.

to say that sam reid is the most attractive out of the entire iwtv cast let alone one of the most beautiful men in the world is one of the most offensive and blatant lies anyone has ever told me. i'm not even saying sam reid's ugly but you do need to get your eyes checked and maybe an exorcism too. your words mean nothing to me and your taste can't be trusted. i don't care if you're in the majority. the majority is wrongggggg

[creatingblackcharacters]

I'm going to be real with you, I won't call him ugly but he's definitely average. The charm and quality of his acting is what's carrying the portrayal. He's a regular looking white guy, otherwise.

On a staff with Jacob Anderson and Assad Zaman and you're gonna say it's LESTAT that's the best looking?? aight. We see you, and we know what you are.

[creatingblackcharacters]

This might be the worst take since they said Adam Driver was the best looking man on a staff with Oscar Isaac and John Boyega fr

[satanfemme]

"resurrected" is probably too strong a word for what's happened to pjackk. he's still dead as fuck and not ok. but his corpse has drifted back to shore and we can poke it with sticks again. so there's that.

[satanfemme]

turns out resurrected was too strong of a word because they exploded his corpse again for some reason.
