#I know I use tumblr like an old man

[royalarchivist]

It's so wild seeing the official Tazercraft account posting old videos of the boys doing random stuff when they were all teenagers, but it's also sorta sweet seeing Pac, Mike, Cellbit, and Felps all hanging out and being friends, even way back then. :')

#Cellbit #Pactw #Mikethelink #Felps #Tazercraft #Mike #Pac #IT'S REALLY SWEET... #I wonder when they got to know Bagi #it's just so cute seeing them all hanging out #I think that's the first time I've seen what Felps looked like as a teen #If anyone's wondering what they're saying #Cellbit's offering him some coxinha and Pac says he doesn't like it #and then Mike and Felps wander over and they're like ''why are you guys on the ground???'' #It's VERY cute seeing Cellbit's baby laugh when I'm so used to his normal laugh #or well I guess teenage-voice laugh #idk man I'm old. They're all babies to me in this video #Edit: Tumblr PLEASE stop deleting my alt text every time I try and post something with it #Not QSMP but QSMP adjacent so.... #QSMP #for my own sake so I can find it later #IRL #Please feel free to add a transcript / better translation in the replies or reblogs if you'd like! #I'm not a native Portuguese speaker so #if there's ever a translation I'm super iffy on I just won't add it #plus they aren't really saying much. the tags about sum it up

it's been pointed out on here before that a lot of terf arguments are actually rooted in sexist idealology that feminists fought and died to unnormalise decades ago and that's its own kettle of fish but one thing i also find very frustrating about this so called 'radical' feminism is that it's so... defeatist? like the moment you categorically label an entire section of society as Bad and Inherently Evil then there's also the implication that nothing can be done about it, and it completely takes all accountability away. saying all men are evil is just another way of saying boys will be boys. he raped her because he's a man. he hit her because he's a man. he didn't listen because he's a man - it's almost offensively oversimplified. there's no point trying to fix this issue in society because men are just Like That, okay! so now what? it's not like they're going anywhere, so you just accept that 50% of the population are evil and will forever treat you terribly and there's nothing to be done about it bc they're biologically predisposed to it? like is that fr the argument here? you're soooo radical for that

#this is coming from someone who used to very genuinely be a misandrist #ironically it was only when i started actually analysing my own feminism that i got MORE confrontational with men #and started respecting my boundaries a lot better BECAUSE i started holding them accountable again #like when men treat me like shit nowadays i dont just write it off as 'what did you expect? he's a man' i get MAD about it #because i EXPECT BETTER FROM THEM even if it's just tiny shit women have to deal with daily #i hold them to just as high a standard as im held to and i make them take accountability when they dont meet that #and whether you realise it or not even on a subconscious level the MOMENT you black-and-white blanket statement all men as bad #you stop holding them accountable. #like it is literally just boys will be boys. do terfs seriously not realise they're sending feminism BACKWARDS #like if a girl came to me with her trauma and people - other girls no less - tried to comfort her with 'yeah all men are evil' #id be fucking furious. like no he did that because he was a piece of shit that had it normalised to him that women arent to be respected #dont you dare let him off the hook with something as simple and uncritical as 'he's a man' #i promise you men like that will MUCH prefer a blanket statement such as 'all men are as bad as each other' #than actually being point blank told they're an abuser or a rapist. because being lumped together is comfortable and even empowering #wheras isolating their behaviour with words that are Bad and Ugly (LIKE 'rapist') is not comfortable at all and has heavy connotations #idk i dont think radical feminism is always bad on its own it can be v liberating. just terfs and misandrists that i have a problem with #dropping this post in a piranha tank and closing tumblr knowing im gonna have some thirty year old karen yelling at me within 5 mins #i probably wont respond to any terf comments bc they literally mentally exhaust me with their stupidity #but that also depends on my mood and ability to keep my mouth shut LMFAO we shall see

I know it's basically impossible to get responses from any kind of minority that isn't "gay people in general" on here and idk how many Latino followers I have but I'm trying this anyway. Whatever

No "ooh gringo clicky button" result ur just gonna have to deal w that

#bc i find myself shifting to saying 'latin' in english a lot and idk if that's just bc i was born an old man or what #although i definitely say latino a lot too even in english #open mick night #boricuaisms #tumblr latino #idk what tag latinos use! i know tags like 'black tumblr' 'jumblr' etc but idk if we have one oops

"fnaf is the scariest game ever" "no its silent hill" "well i think its resident evil" everyone shut up!!!!!! youre all wrong. its actually zack & wiki quest for barbaros' treasure (on the nintendo wii) but only the level "keeper of the ice". that level scared me so bad as a kid and you can tell because its the only individual level i remember the name of off the top of my head. like there is nothing scarier than a) being chased and b) being on a time limit. and you know what this level has? BOTH OF THOSE. this level is still scary to me im like AHHHHH!!!! and then i die

#i had to google horror games after i thought really hard for silent hill and fnaf #because like. resident evil is just not a horror game in my mind... its just cool zombie game... #to be fair though. the only one i actually played a portion of was re6 which is probably the least scary one in the whole series #anyway do the kids still find silent hill and fnaf scary. i dont know. #well the former id say yes given how prevalent ps1 horror has been in recent years #fnaf i have no idea. im a massive wuss so its scary when i play it for myself #but watching someone else play them especially when i know them well isnt scary #and ive watched fnaf videos for YEARS #so i dont know. (old man voice) these damn kids... back in my day we watched markiplier scream at freddy fazbear and we LIKED it! #anyway its objectively a horror game and thata literally fine thats all i needed for this post #MY POINT HERE. my point here #IS THAT HIT ZACK AND WIKI LEVEL KEEPER OF THE ICE. IS SOOOOO SCARY #its not that scary but i see tjat level and im like 3 years old making my mom play this level for me again #and for the record yes me and my sister really did make our mom help us with z&w #she remembers helping us with frost breath the most because we like did notttttt get that one at all #and she could never remember how to do the mirrors based on what combination of stands is there (because tjeres like a few variations) #so she always had to look up a guide 😭😭 #my poor mother on fucking gamefaqs or something in like 2010... legends only #anyway if you have no idea what level im talking about (any of my oomfs reading this that isnt end) (hi end) PLEASE look up this level #and i need you to think of like a 5(?) year old making her mom play this game. #this aforementioned child is still a massive wuss as an adult btw. some things never change #anyway watch that level and think about how someone like me. whos already a scaredy cat! #imagine how someone like me felt at age 5 possibly younger playing this level #I WISH I COULD LIKE CONVEY EMOTIONS OVER TUMBLR. why cant i attach a .emotion file to this post #anyway ramble over <- hes said that like a million times today #scariest level in a game ever...!!!!! FUCK that keeper of the ice bitch im GLAD he died #muffin mumbles

oh right, i changed main accs like last year and transferred this side blog, but never got back into using it! so now i don't follow a single account </3 so if we used to be mutuals (or if you'd like to be!) could you please reply to this or interact somehow...? i've missed being here

#but it's so hard to what's it called... burst the bubble! like pop the surface! when you start fresh on a website like this #i made my old tumble account in 2013! and i was on here till like... early 2021? but SOOO much has changed! it's a little crazy #now i don't know how to use the website anymore lmao #the culture seems to have changed a bit (both the humour and like... idk it seems more lainback and less high stakes than it used to be? #which is nice! but i'm a little out of it haha) #.txt #anyway. please interact with this or inbox me if you'd like to be mutuals! i have a grand total of zero (0) mutuals rn. and followed blogs #and the whole what's it called! interface! like the whole website design and how it works! there are so many goddamn tabs now?? #recommended posts. staff picks. for you. followed topics and tags. based on your tags... everything! so much new stuff #(old man voice) back when i was young and a tumblr user we had none of this 'functional website' bullshit #we were downright rawdogging it but we were sticking together!

[daz4i]

do new tumblr users know that in the past we couldn't directly reply to replies. we had to use xkit with a feature that lets you click the replies in your notifs that created a new post with the original comment and tagged the commented and you could add whatever you want to that. and we just lived like this. and that was before we had dms too so it was either that in public (and hitting post limit fast) or hitting ask limit or using fan mail that I'm not sure even exists anymore. you don't know how good you have it

#i am an old man in the center of town yelling about how things were back in my day to whomever is willing to stop and listen #we also didn't have discord. up until like 2017 we used skype if we wanted to talk outside of tumblr. SKYPE!!!!! #we did get dms in the middle of that tho i just can't quite place my finger on exactly when. #you guys don't know the horrors of the skype groupchat equivalent of a kin discord. most unreadable shit on earth #ok now i REALLY sound like an old man lol sorry.

[rucow]

i used to be an ace lesbian until i experienced a clip of a live slipknot performance

#💀 #all it took was one slightly odd 50 year old man to change that about me #im sure a lot of ppl would judge me but im actually really glad this happened to me #bc i feel so much more comfortable with the idea of having men in my life now #im still very repulsed by most men but at least now i know that theres Exceptions 👉👈 #also they gotta be like 20 years older than me apparently 😭 otherwise i dont rly like what i see #DSFJSJ SORRY IM SHARING SOOO MUCH RANDOM INFO ABOUT MYSELF ON HERE #its not like anyone uses tumblr its ok

[Blearily awake from critical fell asleep on couch incident] anyway i think ppl will always partially loose me in anything with regards to self care and amelioration if you do not acknowledge a persons inalienable right to hurt themselves and get worse.

#some shit #sounds suspect i realise. i am fine just had a badddddd day lol. which u can probably. tell. cause i blogged it #hrm. #well anyway not everyone can be reached and not every message is for everyone. but this issue does. stick to me. like a burr. #also in hurt and get worse catagory is the. not do everything good for them they can. you know. #likeeeeee idk i do want us all to survive and live good lives were. idk theres less hurt. me included. #this is more a rectorical/philosophical. smth. then a. strict call to action i guess. #like. not the classical ye olde tumblr its okay to blah blah blah detoriate smthsmth. but. oh man u do gotta look after ur teeth its sooooo #fucking expensive and dentists are mean to poor ppl [mine is anyway] #handwave. THE POINT. #i dream of a rhectorical style that can compell regardless. as a person in what i suspect is a sliding battle with some. #atypical hmm. conditions i gotta. monitor. or whatever. from my own doing. #hhhhh. and im out of floss. i didnt know that. i was at the store today. nary a beloved character printed on any label i saw. at least #and i did look

[yotd2009]

it's 2023 and i'm still bitter about how kuroshitsuji, a complex slow burn mystery manga, got absolutely massacred by its shitty semi-episodic shota/fujobait anime adaptation

#like yeah the manga could be a bit questionable in the earlier parts (cough corset scene cough comedic relief grelle + soma & agni cough) #but almost all of that got retconned once yana toboso was allowed to have more creative freedom over her work #(and her editor's interference is something we Know had a p drastic effect on the series bc it Literally Gave Us Grelle (toboso wanted to #have a female jack the ripper but her editor said that if she did then she would've had to be working w a man. so in response toboso #decided that madam red's partner in crime would be as effeminate as possible so grelle was created in the vein of buffalo bill and then #only in her next appearance a few arcs later when the book of murder arc was over and done with was she acknowledged to be a trans woman #not the best situation for girlie overall but the manga started treating her much better over time + she slayed) #but the anime was on a whole different level s1 Literally ended while teasing a kiss between a grown adult and a 12 year old #and then s2 just made up random bullshit including a brand new 14 year old to ship bait w adults #and it doesn't help that whenever the series comes up everyone in the surrounding area becomes 50x more susceptible to false info #(see: undertaker's real name being shared around on an image that's literally watermarked by a TUMBLR HEADCANONS BLOG) #so there's a p decent subset of ppl who believe it was originally meant to be a yaoi (rumor that began from the same hc blog) #or that yana toboso is a shotacon (pr.osh.ippers on twt made that one up to try and win arguments) #i want the series to get the fmab treatment w a shiny new anime made by some1 other than a-1 pictures #bc we've seen what happens when they try and adapt the arcs that came out after they committed to the random bullshit plots of s1-2 #in the form of the book of murder circus & atlantic ovas. which are excessively plain and just streamlined disconnected and heartless #renditions of the manga arcs which will make no sense to anyone who hasn't already read it. they're like ufotable's fate route ova but at #least that has higher production values and is somewhat visually interesting #romeo.txt

So, I finally got the new tumblr layout and I checked the xkit extension thing. They haven't made anything yet to bring it back to the old layout? Or do I not have the newest version? Or do I need to read better?

Please, bring back the old layout!

Xkit guy, I'm begging you.

If I wanted to go on the site formerly known as Twitter, I'd go there.

It's so weird trying to navigate the buttons like this. I hate it.

#tumblr update #i know i sound like a crotchety old man #but i really want the old layout back #i also checked out some of the extensions #do any of you guys toggle the add color to posts? or the use post user's colors? it's very interesting #almost like you're getting a sneak preview of the blog's aesthetic before clicking on the blog #i toggled it off because some of the colors aren't friendly to my eyes #but overall it's a good extension if you want the colors to pop #xkit #help

[pissfaggit]

enough to drive a man insane if I'm being honest with you guys

#i dont know you guys idk #idk if i can be one of those cool tumblr girlies who wathces old gory horror slashers or whatever theyre called idk #this was me dipping my toe in #very unpleasant experience #i dont wanna be a little poo poo head baby or anything but i think im more squeamish than i thought #i thought i was pretty good with gore and maybe i used to be like as a teen #but weirdly i think im getting worse with it as time goes on #im glad i watched gonna have to sit on it for a couple days though #ruminate...on the experience... #think about if i could ever watch it again... #that being said hello #what the fuck #jeffrey combs wrapping a guy curled up on the floor in a blanket like UHMMMM. UH #jeffrey?? #ive seen that man as exclusively as an alien freak and we joke about weyoun and brunt but uhhhh. well. #when its unironic i mean uhm #well look at him #re-animator #jeffrey combs #horror #blood #sir i protest i am not a merry man

wish ig wasnt so fucked i do miss posting art on there but itll never be like that again. how zuck managed to make it feel physically bad and gross to use an app is incredible. its like a corpse of the app i used to use. a bad puppet. a shell. parading around, empty and awful. came back wrong. i cant use it the way it is anymore. "reels" and "stories" and the algorithm. im not using those. im not using that. it feels gross. its sliming me. its oozing slime out of my phone. i just wanted to make posts. have all my stupid art in one place and chill with my mutuals. but no. its trying to sell me ads and pretty people. and now i cant view my notifications bc it sold pretty people too hard and broke teenager's brains. itstelling me to watch reels. all the people i follow are posting their posts in their stories that im not watching bc ive refused to evolve the way i use that app past like 2016. why dont ppl just make posts. what the fuck is the point of stories. is that not just snapchat? im not downloading that either

#toy txt post #unreality #? not really but for some of the way some of this is phrased i guess? #i hate instagram now and it makes me so sad #but i miss it. posting art here isnt the same. but its not the same there either #on the rare occasion i do draw smth it doesnt feel worth posting fuckin anywhere #i dont want any tips on how to use it i just want it to not exist anymore tbh. at least people acknowledge that twitter is dead #it feels like everyone just keeps using ig and im just standing here like. its fuckjng dead. its a corpse being paraded around by ads #it died the day they introduced that fucking algo timeline.how are you all still using it. can you not feel the fucking slime? #similar to fb. i just. everytime i open it #every part of me starts screaming. how the fuck are ppl still using it? why am i expected to still use it? #at least that is like. im not expecting my nana to make a tumblr and i dont want her to #anyway. this has been old man yells at cloud #i feel like i have always used ig in a way that was fundamentally different than how other ppl were using it but i used to be able to get #away w it and have no issues but its not possible now #it wont stop reminding me what a horrible thing its become. it wont stop helpfully suggesting ppl it thinks i should follow for one reason #or another god fucking knows why

I feel like everyone on Tumblr is pro Lestat and anti Louis and everyone on Twitter is pro Louis (and Claudia) and anti Lestat 🤕

And I know that’s not necessarily true but god it definitely feels this way.. can’t praise Lestat on Twitter without getting called a white supremacist, and I can’t go three minutes on Tumblr without seeing someone downplay Louis’s trauma… it’s sad for me!

#IWTV #Like why did I just see someone say people on Twitter view Louis as some kind of victim as if he /isn’t/ some kind of victim? 😭 #Like I am sorry but there has always been an imbalance within their relationship and Lestat has used that to his advantage many times #White vs Black - French vs Creole - 160 year old vampire vs 33 year old man who’s never left New Orleans #Knows a lot about vampires and their capabilities vs knowing only what their told #It all adds up #Louis is a victim #But that doesn’t mean he is an innocent character either #Both of them have their flaws #Feel like Tumblr fans feel superior to Twitter fans when in fact both of you are very annoying! #Tbh I feel like a lot of y’all view this show in a very black and white way (no pun intended) and it’s a bit annoying to read #Anyways.. Loustat is end game 😁 But also Lestat is a terrible person and he needs to do better by Louis

i think if mimue tumblr was real it would be incredible

#yin-thoughts #apf #there was thought that went into those urls #rigel uses a simple obvious name that he had to pay another user for (not pictured) because he's been impersonated hundreds of times #fomal didn't stoop to rigel's level and instead just took the first random number username that popped up #aldeba was actually clever with his url and uses his account to talk shit about his job because he deserves it. #aldeba also has the highest follower count (in mimue universe tumblr) #and altair is an old man who doesn't actually use tumblr as anything but as one of those Official Corporation Accounts #but sometimes. sometimes he breaks character. #anyway yall dont know the effort that went into this one shitpost okay i had to make like four sideblogs

While Neil's suggestion of making you pay to have the blue check removed on Tumblr I don't think it embodies the spirit of the site.

Counteroffer: you can pay to GIVE someone the blue check. Tumblr is a PvP zone and this should reflect that.

#tumblr #blue checkmark #tumblr selling us bs #PvP #good old Neil #love talking about him just like the nice old man down the street #i mean i know hes not that old but i mean in the aesthetic sense
