really funny that every website is in an arms race to make itself as bad as possible and immediately someone makes a firefox extension to fix it

hey @staff what the fresh fuck is this
wow i sure wonder 🤔🤔 what the new layouts supposed to look like 🤔🤔🤔🤔 its a mystery
Don’t forget y’all that there’s a much better way for us to let Tumblr know what we think about specific changes, rather than @ ing staff or wip, and it’s sending in a support ticket and choosing feedback!
Tumblr reverted some of the asinine app decisions they made after a concerted feedback effort! So make sure to use this form! It’s what it’s for, but it’s not well advertised!
So I had to unexpectedly move recently due to splitting up with my partner that I was living with and am now living alone for the first time in my live, which means I've had to (and will continue to have to) pay for new appliances, furniture, cookware, etc. I also had the flu recently and had to get a doctor's note for work, which wound up costing almost $500 (America!)
I just got paid and it looks like I'll have enough for rent on the 1st, but just barely. That means I'll be completely broke until my next paycheck in 2 weeks, with no money for food, meds, all the home goods I still need to get, or any more surprises that come up in that time
If you're in a position to help a boi out, my ko-fi is here, my patreon is here, and paypal/venmo are available on request. Reblogs also help tremendously. I really do appreciate y'all coming through whenever I need help 💖
Hey, so remember that thing I said about surprise expenses?
My motorcycle (my only means of transportation) was stolen last night
I don't know yet what I'm going to do, but in the meantime I need to get ubers to and from work every day and that adds up just by itself. Nevermind getting a new vehicle
A bit of solidarity would be very helpful right now. The links in the previous post are still active, and I'd really appreciate some help spreading this around. Thanks, y'all
#ACAB now. ACAB forever.
Defund the police. Communities can police themselves with the resources.
This headline is wild to think about. Could you imagine your field of work being labeled the leading cause of death in the entire fucking country and not having to worry about being unemployed by weeks end? I doubt any pig who reads this is even remotely worried about their job. It's fucking insane.
I cannot put into words how much I Fucking Loathe the fact that when you search something on youtube now it will randomly intersperse blocks of "people also watched" and "for you" into the results. That's not what I searched for, youtube. I typed in a search query because I wanted to see search results, not random unrelated garbage you have placed in my way apparently to either inconvenience me or force me to scroll further for actual results. I despise your wretched little games and every time I see it I can only instantly close the tab as I am overcome with the urge to burn something down.
"I despise your wretched little games" perfectly conveys how I feel about the entire algorithm/attention economy
They also refuse to actually show the parameters you searched for. If you sort by “upload date,” the first few videos might be more recent ones by upload date, but anything past that you’ll find a video that was uploaded five years ago, then five months ago, then three years ago, etc, which—NO! That’s NOT WHAT I ASKED FOR!! PUT THEM IN ORDER!!!
Also sometimes the “people also watched” bullcrap will not only be entirely unrelated, it will also be videos with violent, sometimes outright triggering thumbnails. I’ve gotten some AWFUL unrelated video thumbnails just when searching for video game music videos.
theyer old enough that they used to connect
They're older than Florida. The Floridian peninsula is the solidified runoff of the Appalachians that got caught on some coral. It's why we're like this, I think. You don't stand a chance of being normal when you were created by the shed skin of an elder god draping itself over a hollow skeleton. You're always going to be a little Off.
