I have achieved joy, I feel positive feelings toward Tumblr, I want to engage, I want to stay, my eyeballs land on more ads, you make more money, everyone wins! 🎉
Seeing the collapsed thread, you go like this:
😮 ooh, that’s cool 😐 “16 cents”? yes, that’s literally what the pic shows, not sure why you felt the need to say that
There is no motivation for me to uncollapse the reblog chain—it looks like a boring conversation about the denominations of coins. And even if I do uncollapse it, you’ve ruined the joke by showing me the punchline before the setup. I am sad, Tumblr is boring, I go elsewhere to entertain myself, I see less ads, you make less money, everyone loses. 😥
Reblog chains are the best thing about Tumblr. They are your unique super power. They are the thing that makes people screenshot Tumblr and share it around. Why on earth would you kneecap them??
I don’t know exactly how you plan to implement this. Give people the option to keep them collapsed if there truly are people who are annoyed by how long they can get (you already have a version of this feature), but don’t collapse them for everyone or new users by default. Please. It will make Tumblr so much more boring.
Mielenosoitus hallituksen rasisteja vastaan keskiviikkona 19.7. klo 17
Tekstit kopioitu Facebook tapahtuman sivulta, johon linkki postauksen lopussa!
FIN: Suomella on avoimesti rasistinen hallitus. Riikka Purran kirjoitukset ja hallituspuolueiden reaktiot kirjoituksista nousseeseen kohuun osoittavat tämän kiistattomasti. Petteri Orpo väittää, että hallituksessa on “nollatoleranssi rasismille”. Tämä on ilmiselvästi valetta ja pelkkää sanahelinää. Tule mukaan vaatimaan, että Petteri Orpo seisoo sanojensa takana ja erottaa Riikka Purran valtionvarainministerin tehtävästä. Rasistit ulos hallituksesta!
Kokoonnumme klo 16.45 Säätytalolle josta marssimme klo 17–18 Esplanadin ja Mannerheimintien kautta Eduskuntatalolle. Jos et pääse paikalle, voit osallistua somemielenosoitukseen tunnisteilla #RasistitUlos ja #Nollatoleranssi.
Mielenosoitus on yksityishenkilöiden järjestämä. Kaikki paitsi rasistit ovat tervetulleita mukaan.
ENG: The Finnish government is openly racist. Riikka Purra’s online comments and the reactions of the government parties are undeniable proof of this. Petteri Orpo claims that the government has “a zero tolerance for racism”. This is obviously an outright lie. Join us to demand that Petteri Orpo stands behind his words and removes Riikka Purra from her position as Minister of Finance. Racists out of the Government!
We will gather at the House of Estates (Säätytalo) at 16.45. From there we will march at 17-18 through Esplanadi and Mannerheimintie to the Parliament (Eduskuntatalo). If you are unable to make it in person, you can join the online demonstration using the hashtags #RasistitUlos and #Nollatoleranssi.
This protest is organized by individuals. Everyone except racists welcome.
SVE: Finland har ett öppet rasistisk regering. Riikka Purras skrivelser visar detta utan tvekan. Petter Orpo hävdar att regeringen har “nolltolerans för rasism”. Detta är helt klart lögn och struntprat. Kom med och kräv att Petteri Orpo står fast vid sina ord och ger sparken åt Riikka Purra som finansminister. Rasisterna ut ur regeringen!
Vi samlas 16.45 till Ständerhuset varifrån vi marscherar kl. 17-18 till Riksdagshuset via Esplanaden och Mannerheimvägen.
Demonstrationen organiseras av privatpersoner. Alla förutom rasister är välkomna.
i know we’ve been saying this about every new shitty update but i feel like removing reblog chains could really be the thing to kill this site. like that is literally the main thing that makes tumblr unique
truly the only reason you still see tumblr posts reposted constantly on other sites which claim tumblr to be “dead” is because of our unique form of collaborative posting. also you would not only be taking away what makes the site unique but also the main form of socialization between the users which yknow. some could say is the basis for your whole fucking social media website
why’d this get 100 notes in an hour on a wednesday morning damn 😭 we’re real fucking annoyed about this huh
Wait are they considering this!!??????!!???
They’re not just considering, they’re set on doing it.
my toxic xennial trait is that i believe something should either be software (in which case after i download it i shouldn’t need to be connected to use it) or a web page (which shouldn’t require me to download anything to use it, however badly, in a browser). fuck your mandatory single function constant connection apps
Since 2005, Shousetsu Bang*Bang has been a webzine for authors and artists to showcase their original works. We are an all-volunteer project dedicated to making and displaying the sexy queer content we want to see in the world, focusing on explicit love stories with happy endings. (For more information and a bit of history, see our Mission Statement.)
Interested in participating? We’d love to have you on board! We welcome authors and artists of all experience levels. Here’s some informative links for potential contributors:
Quick Answers: Interested in participating but don’t know where to start? Bring your quick questions here!
This is an all-volunteer project that depends on community goodwill to keep going. Please help us spread the word by reblogging this post, sharing other links, and telling your friends!
Please, please, pretty please, reblog and share! It’s free queer smut that makes you feel happy! Just click on the random story link until you find something you like!
Reblogs are extra-appreciated here because the SSBB account got (understandably) flagged as NSFW back when the Great Porn Purge happened, and now nothing that gets posted there shows up in any search results, tagged or otherwise. We can’t even blaze any posts from there because of this restriction. That means it’s all up to what shows up in people’s feeds, put there by the people they follow.
We’ve been making this work for nearly eighteen years now, and we have every intention of keeping it going as long as we can. Thanks for the support that keeps making our issues possible.
y’all, Shousetsu Bang*Bang is a wildly underrated source of original queer content and I’m so glad I found it when I did. I’ve even contributed some stories in previous issues (under a pseudonym, of course, but still)! I haven’t really kept up with them in years, and I don’t have the energy to go digging for a full rec list, but I assure you, if you like porn, there’s something for everyone*, and if you’re stumped, literally anything written by shukyou (aka ladysisyphus, the lovely person I reblogged this from) is a good place to start
*I mean it. they’ve got body horror, they’ve got orgies, they’ve got lesbians, they’ve got experimental gender shenanigans, they’ve got porn parodies, they’ve got friends-to-lovers, they’ve got only-one-bed, they’ve got cowboys and witches and gangsters and samurai and demons and fifties housewives and vampires and werewolves and space pirates and EVERYTHING.
