My Vision Of Our Tumblr Replacement

I started on Tumblr soon after it was created with a vanilla blog. Since then, hardly a day has gone by that Tumblr wasn’t a part of my life. I have made excellent friends on Tumblr over the years. In fact, MOST of my friends came from relationships I made via Tumblr. The precious, bubbly cupcake that is in my bed? Tumblr. So you can imagine how painful Tumblr’s announcement has been for me.

I love seeing the marginalized communities that are shunned elsewhere on Planet Earth have a safe place to exist and be themselves. It always made me smile when I see a Tumblr blogger ease out of their shells, steadfastly into the world.

Well, that shit is no more.

As some of you may have noticed I started a community effort to rescue these communities. I want everyone involved because it will be our garden, our club, our safe space to be ourselves.

And the new site (name to be withheld until we have something to show) is not just for kinksters, I want vanillas too; artists, witches, horror writers, brewmeisters, budtenders, book sluts, fandoms of all types, beat poets, wilderness photographers, Burners, vampire hunters, Dungeons and Dragons players, and rocket scientists. Hell, I want people who just want to blog about cats and cabins in the woods.

What we won’t tolerate are bullies, minors, Nazis (and their fucked up allies), abusers or trolls. They can fuck right off to a cesspool of their choice.

I am putting up the cash to get this started PLUS I am making this a community effort, that is why I am being so transparent about the process with our Discord planning group. Yes, it is chaos. We have taken on an INSANE project to get done in less than 2 weeks. Well, 9 days now.

This isn’t my first rodeo. I am actively trying to keep my anonymity as long as I can, but I know it will soon be spugged out in due order soon. You will then see what I have done in the past and learn about a very vanilla project that has been near and dear to my heart. You have probably heard of it and maybe even participated!

The beta site will not be perfect. It will be good but not perfect. Hell, we have been suffering with “far from perfect” with Tumblr now for years. It is my hope that our community can put up with our rough edges for a little while.

Where we are tonight is pretty good. We have selected a host, got our software loaded, installed the Linux packages required and are now getting those packages to play nice with one another. We had it working for a bit until a small issue with the registration page required some elbow work.

I am working on the branding and marketing with a bunch of really smart pervs in our Discord group. I am really proud of all of our volunteers and want to thank them all. 

If you want to volunteer or simply eat popcorn and watch the porn riots, please use this invite link: https://discord.gg/jVempgb

Remember, Discord is just the site we are using for planning, not the actual site we are moving to.

Many of you have asked about the Library For Kinksters, it will be archived and placed on the now site.

We plan to allow you to import your Tumblr blog over to our new site but Tumblr may have other ideas. Other services have been using Tumblr’s API for exporting and now Tumblr now seems to be shutting down that API functionality.

That is all for now. Keep your heads held high and remember you are ALL FUCKING AMAZING PEOPLE!

P.S. Please reblog the shit out of this. Santa may drop a slutty elf off at your house for Christmas!

P.P.S. Oh and pirates. I really want pirates on the site too!

Reblog if you’re not Tumblr famous, and you post the stuff because you like it, and you follow people because you actually like their blog.

The Endearing and Annoying Things About Each Sign

Aries: Endearing: One of the most lovable things about Aries is that they approach everything in life with a child-like wonder and enthusiasm. Annoying: Aries get so freaking fired up about everything, they often turn minor conflicts into major brawls.

Taurus: Endearing: Taurus will shower the people they love with random acts of love and generosity. Annoying: At the first sign of sickness, Taurus will clear the calendar, turn off the phone, call into work, and basically act like the world is ending.

Gemini: Endearing: A Gemini will always verbally express their feelings about everything. If they love you, you will hear about it constantly and feel like you have a #1 fan. Annoying: Gemini has a tendency to act as if they know so much about what you’re talking about, even if they don’t.

Cancer: Endearing: Cancer constantly wants to be with their loved ones. Like a loyal puppy, they will follow you around the house begging for quality time and snuggles. Annoying: You’d be lucky to have a minute go by without Cancer’s insecurity issues popping up; they require constant reassurance.

Leo: Endearing: Every Leo has a bouncy, bubbly, positive energy that can’t be stifled and is super contagious. Annoying: Leos are the biggest whiners. If things don’t go their way, if they don’t feel appreciated, hell, even if they are just a little tired you won’t hear the end of it.

Virgo: Endearing: If you are close to Virgo, you know one of their cutest qualities is how they are always gathering different opinions and insights. Annoying: Virgo’s incessantly worry about everything, making simple things seem overly complicated.

Libra: Endearing: Libra values other people so much that they will always go to great lengths to make any situation feel comfortable, calm, and enjoyable. Annoying: Libras will tell you exactly what you want to hear, and aren’t above using their people skills to get what they want.

Scorpio: Endearing: If someone they love has been wronged, Scorpio will do everything in their power to make it right — and we mean everything. Annoying: They get so intense and serious about every little thing, making small decisions seem like life or death.

Sagittarius: Endearing: Sagittarius has an innately optimistic outlook that allows them to view the world from a place of hope and optimism. Annoying: They are such perfectionists and more than a bit controlling — if you don’t do things their way, you are doing things wrong.

Capricorn: Endearing: Capricorns have a warm and nurturing way about them. When you are around them you will always feel supported and well taken care of. Annoying: If there’s not a specific plan in place, Capricorn cannot handle it and it’s only a matter of time before they freak out.

Aquarius: Endearing: An Aquarius is always ready and willing to jump in and lend a helping hand no matter what else is going on in their own lives. Annoying: Aquarians believe they always have the most logical perspective, AKA they don’t know when to shut up and listen instead of offering advice.

Pisces: Endearing: Pisces is naturally a subtle, open, and vulnerable person, which is something our society often frowns upon but they can’t help it and it’s lovely! Annoying: They often seem to be stuck in slow motion, so it takes them literally three times as long as anyone else to get something done.

Shoutout to fat girls in the summertime. Shoutout to fat girls who wear jeans even though it’s 90 degrees because they don’t like the way their legs look. Shoutout to fat girls who wear a t-shirt to swim because they don’t like the way people look at their stretch marks. Shoutout to fat girls that only wear dresses with sleeves because they don’t like that their arms aren’t perfectly proportioned. Shoutout to fat girls who wear cardigans with button-downs because they don’t like the spaces between the buttons buckling because of their boobs. Shoutout to fat girls who don’t care about any of that stuff and wear whatever they want. Shoutout to fat girls who don’t want to care about that stuff, but do anyway. Shoutout to fat girls who have to work very hard everyday not to care about that stuff. Shoutout to all fat girls in the summertime. You’re all absolutely fantastic and you’re doing fine. Be patient with yourself, you deserve it.
