Poll time again cause I’ve been curious about this for a bit, aka consuming media and wondering if I’m the odd one out or not lol.

Would love to have responses for this and if people are comfy put in tags if it was like highschool/ primary / etc.

(When I say “aro / etc.” I mean aro or somewhere on the aro spectrum just round out of characters :c)

why is “report hate speech” not one of the default options with “report spam” instead of “report sexually explicit material”. i’m not a cop so i don’t care if people post hole & pole but i would love if i didn’t have to explain every time why it’s bad when there are nazis

The narrative that “you should care about disabled people because one day that’ll be you” is ableist in and of itself.

You should care about disabled people because you should care about the disenfranchisement of a marginalized community.

Becoming disabled is not a punishment. Becoming disabled is not a threat. Becoming disabled is not cosmic retaliation for being ableist. Becoming disabled is morally neutral.

Years on the internet and somehow i still click on comments sections with the insanely optimistic idea that I'll learn something new instead of being subjected to the dumbest motherfuckers online typing like their sole purpose in life is to make me want to end mine

"Wow, what an interesting post! I want to see what sort of fascinating discourse is being generated by the idea posited by the original poster" <- Me, operating under levels of delusion yet unexplained by modern science

pro-tip for your mental health but also in general. get involved with your environment. learn the plants that are native. plant them. learn what species are invasive. learn the insects. learn the reptiles. get involved with societies or conservatories (vet them first). eat something you’ve grown. get involved locally. get more nature around you.

DASHBOARD UNFUCKER V1.0

as 90% of desktop users have probably found out, today @staff released an update that for some insane reason COMPLETELY remodels the dashboard to replicate twitter's. this is of course in the wake of numerous other thoroughly hated changes and a continued refusal to fix any of the site's actual problems, half of which stem directly from site management.

HOWEVER, thanks to the power of jQuery, i was able to throw together a userscript that remodels the dashboard back to its original look almost perfectly.

here is my dashboard right now, with the script active:

ID: a browser screenshot of the new tumblr layout, but fixed to look exactly the same as the old oneALT

and here is the old dashboard in separate tab container that hasn't received the update:

ID: a browser screenshot of the old tumblr layoutALT

it's hardly perfect; i had trouble making it force reload to the fixed layout when switching between other pages and the dashboard, and it currently only fixes just the dashboard. it's also completely untested on browsers other than firefox, and chances are it looks a bit screwy on ultrawide monitors. but for now at least, it's a good fix.

the unfucker is a tampermonkey userscript. all you have to do to use it is install the tampermonkey extension, hit "create new script", and replace the default code on the page with the script (link here) and save it.

ID: a button that says "+ create new script"ALT
ID: an image of the tampermonkey <New userscript> page with code pasted into itALT

op you are a fucking lifesaver THANK YOU

The meme showing a sea creature coming onto land. Several spears and a hand are pointing at it, and text on the image says: Stop them! "You missed your chance, pal!" / If you see a Horrid Beast evolving, push it back in.

Edited on top of the creature is a screenshot of the new Tumblr sidebar, and the creature is labelled, "Their filthy side bars." Underneath the creature is text that says, "Our blessed" and has a screenshot of the old Tumblr top bar.

I don’t get it, man. why. why do we have to homogenize everything. why does every product have to look and behave and feel the exact same way. why can’t tumblr maintain its individuality? why can’t it lean into the things that make it a unique and refreshing offering instead of scrambling to make it a carbon copy of twitter? sucks, man. sucks.

it’s just like. this broadcasts loud and clear that the people behind the curtain have no pride or faith in this site at all. that tumblr, as a whole, has no worth or merit unless it’s somehow tricking the larger internet community into thinking it’s actually another site. and the users are supposed to celebrate this? where’s the dignity? where’s the self-respect? where’s the joy? it’s disheartening and embarrassing to be forced to conform. smh.

i actually don’t mind tumblr having side bars, but i specifically want the old side bars that tumblr used to have on the right side.

the real crime is whatever the hell they’ve done to the DMs

full disclosure the rest of the new dashboard hasn’t hit me yet but this is what it looks like rn
