It’s this damn time of the year again when everyone I care about feels like this
Type O Negative – “Gravitational Constant: G = 6.67 x 10⁻⁸ cm⁻³ gm⁻¹ sec⁻²” from 1991s “
Slow, Deep And Hard“
lyrics by Peter Steele
[a. Unjustifiable Existence]
One two three four I don’t wanna live no more
Well I’ve got no more reason to live And I’ve got no more love to give Tonight’s the night I’ll paint the town red I’ll put another whole through my head
Unjustifiable existence Unjustifiable Unjustifiable existence Unjustifiable existence
Now I feel the weight of a world on my back I’ve seen the future The future looks black It’s what I must do I have no reservations Ain’t talk ‘bout self preservation
Unjustifiable existence Unjustifiable Unjustifiable existence Unjustifiable existence
Gravity Crushing me Gravity Crushing me Crushing me Crushing me
[b. Acceleration (due to gravity) – 980cm^-2 sec]
Yeah I feel something pulling me down Forcing me between myself and the ground Of all the nightmares that ever came true I think that gravity (gravity-gravity) is you
Unjustifiable existence Unjustifiable Unjustifiable existence Unjustifiable existence
Gravity Crushing me Gravity Crushing me Crushing me Crushing me
The Vox article that I was interviewed for is up and running, and it contains some serious fuckign information about this whole fiasco.
Information that tumblr just straight up refused to provide to its userbase at all.
Unsurprisingly to those of us watching this website deteriorate over the last year, this full content purge and ban has been in progress for a solid 6 months. The date got moved up because of the child porn thing, but it was always coming for us.
Equally unsurprising: Tumblr’s management and ownership are absolutely destroying the actual staff working on it. The company has been hemoragghing senior staff without so much as a token attempt to keep them in place. So the drops in site quality are real, and wil probably only be getting worse.
Truly astonishing is the fact that apparently this crap was supposed to “double” the userbase by the end of next year. Boy, howdy, that’s not gonna work out well for them.
Read it. Know what’s happening. Know why it is happening.
Porn on Tumblr is something Verizon needs to wipe out if it’s going to make any money off what it thinks is actually valuable about the platform — enormous fandom and social justice communities that, just before the Verizon acquisition, Khalaf was insisting the staff figure out how to better monetize.
WOW
Fuck this place. Honestly! Why should we stay and support a company that wants to make money off BLM. WHILE ALLOWING NEONAZIS TO RUN RAMPANT.
well i’am done. I will delete my tumblr, i would like to keep my sfw one but i want a cut for myself and a cut which is remarkable in the userbase.
All the talking about CP, when they would have taken earlier action on it and pay actually attention to reports then they would have seen the mechanism and have taken serious actions.
They didn’t care and they still wouldn’t care when the App would be still in the Apple Store. Everything else is a cover story.
Well sites die. That’s the lesson livejournal and MySpace should have taught us. G+ and tumblr are just the latest
Give me Sodomy, or give me Death
