okay! so judging by my notes and a quick search the answer seems to be a resounding "yeah dashboard unfucker isn't working :(". which naturally sucks ass
I'm sure SOMEONE will fix this eventually but while we wait for that here's a temporary fix: there's an extension called Stylus, and someone made an equivalent to the Dashboard Unfucker on there way back which still works
only downside is that you have to manually enable it. and it doesn't stay permanently on. so if you switch tabs and go back to tumblr it'll be back to the Twitter Dash of Hell. or if you just want to scroll through someone's blog or search something, that'll also make it go back. having to hit the metaphorical "make my tumblr dash Not Suck Ass" button constantly is mildly annoying but it's better than nothing
question: is anyone else who uses the dashboard unfucker just having it straight-up not work.
I don't mean the weird glitch where posts disappear off the dashboard or whatever I mean the dashboard went back to this bullshit
because if someone at Tumblr specifically made it so that the dashboard unfucker no longer works I am going to throw someone into the abyss
AND he looks like a muppet. don't forget that he looks like a muppet
imagine being in the pearl clan and your first time seeing a white guy is some bloke who showed up out of nowhere and seems to have no recollection of himself or where he was from but he talks weird and has a natural affinity for pokemon. how did they not think of him as a spirit of sorts
It's that time of year when Tumblr celebrates Easter by posting pictures of crucified anime characters, and inevitably somebody in the notes will pop up to helpfully explain that crucifixion imagery has no cultural significance in Japanese media because Japan is only about 1% Christian, which bugs me because it's completely wrong.
It's true that in the majority of cases, crucifixion in Japanese cartoons isn't meant to be conveying any specific theological message, but something Western audiences are likely to miss is that a large portion of those random crucifixion scenes are referencing Ultraman.
Ultraman's creator was a devout Roman Catholic who explicitly intended the titular hero to read as a Christ figure, and consequently, various Ultramen have been crucified on multiple unconnected occasions throughout the franchise's history. Crucifixion scenes in Japanese cartoons are often directly name-checking particular crucifixion incidents from Ultraman, right down to emulating the compositions and camera angles of specific shots. It's like an especially morbid version of the Akira slide.
The upshot is that while it's true that the inclusion of gratuitous crucifixion scenes in Japanese cartoons typically has no (intentional) theological message, stating that they have no cultural significance is incorrect. A large chunk of the Japanese viewing audience are going to see them and immediately go "hey, that's an Ultraman reference".
Anyway, as an image tax, have a shot of four crucified Ultramen miraculously resurrecting a fifth Ultraman by shooting laser beams out of their hearts:
hey i’m really sorry because you were a really cool mutual but for the record i have to unfollow you because the purple creature in your profile picture (whatever she’s from) (or they sorry i don’t want to assume the beast’s pronouns) (i love all genders) looks almost exactly like my ex girlfriend’s fursona and i tried to ignore that for a while because i’m not the kind of pussy who would unfollow someone because their creature looks like my ex’s fursona but get this: she drew her fursona hitting me (human) (i’m not a furry) (nothing against them) (i love all genders) with a car (honda civic) and sent it to me from a burner account on toyhouse. so needless to say i can’t keep doing this. i’m gonna miss your posts though you were a real one i loved when you would say shit like “it’s (the f slur) wednesday post knuckles”
I apologize for diverting the attention away from Marcille's inherent girlboss nature but I need you all to understand this is the original screenshot because it makes this ten times funnier
marcille is everything bc she spends the first chunk of the series being squeamish and prissy and anxious and then suddenly shes like
and you realize she's not the normal innocent everywoman after all
