matt just fired half the remaining tumblr support staff lmao

WordPress maker Automattic lays off 16% of staff | TechCrunch

from my sources adjacent to tumblr–from which i can spread rumors and insider information freely because i dont give a fuck about ever working in the tech sector–im hearing this round of firings was focused on purging the senior staff, and not just from support but from the entire remaining tumblr workforce. i’m hearing there are about 25 people left.

hey. look at me. you, person who Calls Everyone Guy. you are NOT going to wait for that trans woman you know to tell you she is uncomfortable with being called Guy. it is an unfortunate truth that trans women are trained not to create boundaries; she does not know if you are going to flip out at her for asking, so she might choose to just let it happen.

you are going to, BY DEFAULT, assume that she does not like being called Guy, Dude, or Bro. if you want, you can ask, but you are going to make it clear that you will accept an answer of “no”, okay? default to “girl”, ask if theres anything else shes okay with being called. treat the subject as an open conversation. okay? okay. you can go now, but close the door on the way out.

I just had my first full body MRI scan and the whole time i was thinking i should have eaten a bunch of Swedish crowns like that one comic, very cool though. They gave me headphones and earplugs so i dont stress out from the noise and it was very cool, if not a bit scary, like what if I had some kind of nail implanted in my brain as a kid and now i will die forever

I had to hold in my laugh in the MRI machine because they wanted me to be absolutely still

Whenever my aunt springs her insane superstitious/religious cures on me I specifically remember when I was 17 and she got me exorcised. The priest was like “I don’t think she’s possessed” and she insisted “well there’s something wrong with her, she’s always [symptoms of depression] so…”

And the guy said some verses and touched my head and stuff then said I should drink only holy water for an entire week. Which wasn’t hard to do, but my fav part of this whole experience was me saying I want to eat instant noodles and my aunt going “I’ll make them for you. With the holy water he gave us.” And then I had holy instant noodles

When I tell people to delete anon hate, to not publish it, it’s not me saying “ignore it and it’ll stop; don’t fight back.” It is 100% petty and spiteful. Honestly, I can’t think of anything better than the person who sent the hate obsessively checking your blog and refreshing and refreshing, waiting for you to reply, and getting increasingly frustrated when the ask they so masterfully crafted never pops up & you just keep posting cute pictures of your pets and talking about how nice your day was.

That’s what “don’t feed the trolls” means! They are doing it for their own self-satisfaction of causing chaos and anguish! Don’t let them have that satisfaction!

I turn 30 next month so here’s what I learned in my 20s:

—don’t work for startups, they’re always one ‘innovative idea’ away adding ‘sell your kidneys on the black market’ to your job description.

—keeping a collection of basic OTC medicine on you will save your life one day. I recommend Advil, Imodium, and TUMS.

—those little single-use glasses cleaning wipes are 1000% worth the money

—overly self-depreciating jokes just make people uncomfortable, wean yourself off of them

—you can buy dehydrated mini marshmallows in bulk online and they’re a godsend for hot cocoa

—people don’t care if you have fidget toys on your desk they just want to play with them

—try to go to bed BEFORE the existential ennui kicks in

Also drink water and eat a plant

This is all GREAT. I turned 40 last week, so permit me to add what I learned in my 30s:

• keep on not working for startups
• sometimes there comes a point where the thing (fandom, hobby, friendship, romantic relationship) you loved no longer brings you joy. And that’s okay. Try to mourn the loss, take joy in the memories, and don’t burn any bridges in case ten years go by and you find yourself back in that fandom/hobby/relationship again
• it turns out that (ugh) moderate regular exercise is (spit) good for you. The sooner you make it part of your life, the easier it’ll be
• related: if you throw yourself into a new exercise regime too hard and too fast, without stopping to rest or consider whether a particular move is good for you … well, shoulder injuries are painful and consults with orthopedic surgeons are expensive
• knees are bastards too
• don’t even get me started on ankles
• there may come a time when your digestive system is too fragile for ibuprofin. I’m sorry
• one day you’re gonna wake up and realise you no longer give any fucks about some things that used to bother you
• on the other hand, you might be alarmed to realise what you still give a fuck about
• never get down on the floor without an exit strategy for getting back up

I turn 50 this year. what I have learned in my 40s:

• “loving yourself” is less of a feeling and more of an action. you can start doing it any time and it will make your life better and better as you go on
• this will happen incrementally - be patient
• along those lines, if you haven’t started making an active effort to quit shit-talking yourself, suck it up and do it
• no, shut up. do it. “but it’s haaaaard!” don’t care. do it.
• whether you like it or not, you are mortal and you need to go to the doctor for an annual checkup
• stretch regularly - your future self will thank you
• at some point you will encounter people much younger than you arguing passionately and incorrectly about history you personally remember and experienced
• this will be infuriating and annoying
• otoh, most other things just… will not matter to you as much
• at some point you will shift from wanting to go out to being like “eh” and deciding to stay in. this is okay.
• you will have absolutely no idea what The Youth are talking about and you will not care
• but if you keep your mind open to new ideas you’ll never be irrelevant
• your company still doesn’t love you - don’t give them more than they pay you for
• get a fucking hobby, especially a hobby that involves physically creating/handling something and/or moving your body in physical space. it will do you more good than you can imagine

Just turned 60 and let me say:

• Find joy, every kind, it’s always worth it
• I’m talking that massive, never-ending Discord chat with your bestie? The one that makes you giggle through the day? It’s not a “waste of time,” it’s what time was made for
• If that’s fanfic for your favorite characters who never even met on screen celebrate that!
• If that’s building a tiny fleet of snake villagers for your snake town and they just cover your mantel hell yes!
• If that’s collecting pillows and making a fort of them every weekend I’ll be right over
• Feeling and sharing joy is the whole point

This is too tempting…, so, I’m 74, and: don’t fund startups

Please keep stretching and exercise enough NOT to need an elaborate strategy to get up from the floor. IT MAY SAVE YOUR LIFE

Say bye to your employer as early as you possibly can, unless you really love your job. You won’t be sorry.

Keep doing the annual checkups 🙏🏼

Enjoy that fucking hobby you’ve acquired in your 50, or find something new. Do try new things & adventures.

People used to comment on web comics.

People used to comment on fanfiction.

People used to comment on fanart.

People used to comment on OCs.

I hate “content” culture.

I hate “consuming content” and scrolling immediately to the next thing.

People used to be excited about the art that other people created.

People used to want to share that excitement with creators.

I hate this future.

Once someone tagged art that I made with “woah” and I think about it at least once a week. Someone else said “oh neat” once. Someone else WROTE A WHOLE DAMN POEM IN THE COMMENTS. Anyways even just one word can change how someone sees their art. You don’t even have to think about it too hard. You could put a keyboard smash and I’d probably cry from joy.

I’m also trying hard to interact more, I understand that it’s hard to break away from opening your phone and being in Content Consumption Mode.

i hate it too. People useed to write everything from crit to letters to the writer to everything in between. it made it worth it.

YES THIS. IT MADE IT WORTH IT. It’s hard to motivate yourself to make stuff when all it feels like you’re doing is throwing it into the void! Humans don’t make art for nothing! We make it to enhance our connections to the world, to talk to people about our inner thoughts and lives, we make it to bridge gaps and we make it to get info on how to make it better! Criticism and critique are part of sharing art and when that’s gone, everything else feels a little shallow!

All art is a form of communication, if not self-expression. Sure, sometimes people don’t know what to say, but the only thing worse than a tough crowd is a dead one. Be nice to your artists and leave good feedback.

In honor of a bunch of weirdly aggressive posts I’ve seen this past week:

Is smoking weed in non-smoking locations, including indoor concerts, rude?

Yes

No

See Results

I’m going to leave a comment on this specifically because it was a really big problem for me when I worked in Event Services, and I want smokers of all sorts to fucking understand something.

Not everyone has a good time with marijuana. I personally get extremely nauseous from prolonged exposure to it, and headaches.

I also had to work as Firewatch frequently in live concerts, which were held in an indoor venue much like a warehouse. ANY GA event with a fairly young demographic, and my whole fucking night was calling in substance use alerts to security, who couldn’t do much of anything to stamp it out.

Understand that even if you are in a huge indoor venue, the ventilation is NOT good enough with so many other people in there for you to argue that your smoke and smell isn’t going to bother anyone. IT BOTHERS EVERYONE. THIS INCLUDES VAPING.

I would be feeling so fucking ill by the time I’d take my half hour, and more often than not these concerts were 8 hour shifts from start to finish, so even when the concert is over and you’ve gone. that smoke is still fucking hanging around, and so are the symptoms of reactions to it. And Firewatch HAS to be in the building so long as anyone else is.

Fucking MISERABLE shifts, all because you think you need to get your hit while listening to live music in order to enjoy it for some fucking reason. Willing to bet plenty of patrons who paid money to enjoy those bands also had their time ruined by people deciding that smoking/vaping in an enclosed space where they had no way to get away from the smell and smoke was totally fine.

Not even getting into the safety risk part that necessitated having Firewatch wardens on shift for idiot shitheads who think lighting shit up inside is a good idea.

I literally couldn’t give a fuck if you like to smoke pot, I am pro legalising it, but I want to rend you limb from limb with my teeth if you ever think its OK to smoke indoors or in ANY space where other people do not have the option of getting away from you, which is MOST communal/crowded spaces.

Don’t be an absolute fuckshit. Smoke or vape your crap at home or in your car or off in a side street BEFORE you go to the concert and DO NOT, EVER, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, SMOKE IN A FUCKING MUSIC VENUE. EVEN outdoors. People CANNOT get away from you and you are pissing off and ruining the fun of every asthmatic and every person who has bad reactions to your substance.

Have some basic fucking consideration for other people I am BEGGING you.

SMOKING WEED IS STILL SMOKING.

Non-smoking spaces exist because many people are immediately negatively affected by the presence of smoke secondhand. Including but not limited asthmatics, people with lung diseases, elderly people, and babies/children.

I don’t care if it’s legal or if weed doesn’t have carcinogens baked into it or you don’t believe in contact highs or whatever, it is not about any of that. “There is smoke here” is enough to be a problem for lots and lots of people! Any smoke!

If an area says “no smoking” DO NOT SMOKE ANYTHING THERE. And for that matter, don’t vape either.

I am asthmatic and I frequently have to leave events early, both indoor and outdoor, because someone decided to light up or vape in a crowd full of people. And if I can’t get far enough away from the smoke, I end up in the emergency room, with all the related expenses. Even if I do get away fairly quickly, I usually feel like shit for several hours afterward. If you cannot go the entire event without tobacco/marijuana, stay home or choose a non-smoke method like edibles or chewing tobacco or something.

And fyi, just because your vape smells like bubblegum instead of cigarettes doesn’t mean it’s not bad for the people around you.

Hot take, but the bubblegum vapes are even worse than smoking. Weed and tobacco smell bad and can get me coughing if I walk into a cloud of it. Those bubblegum or other flavored vapes will also get me feeling nauseous too. Something about them smells unnatural and it turns my stomach every time.

trying to explain to tumblr that the Middle Class in not their enemy

saw someone say that someone complaining about only having 7k in savings makes them contemplate “doing something bad”

you know that 7k covers like. one hospital visit WITH insurance, right?

“people who make six figures shouldn’t be allowed to complain —“ most people who make six figures are, these days, solidly middle class. where i live, a combined household income of $110k is *lower middle class*.

“people who can afford homes —“ are typically 400-600k in debt for them. also if “can own your own home” is your threshold for the rich you are contemplating eating, i think you are genuinely stupid

“boohoo your investments dropped, stop complaining rich boy” idk how to tell you this but. most of us have a retirement account. you should probably open one

The tying of retirement funds to stock markets is actually insane. Social security should be enough to retire comfortably

still thinking about “decolonising” missionary work.

the way you decolonise missionary work is by not doing missionary work

the way you decolonise missionaries is like this:

“but it’s part of my religion to evangelise”

🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆 infinite jaguar attack

“but we need to go to Ethiopia (one of the oldest christian countries in the world) to make them the right kind of christian!”

🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆

jaguars

“but…”

🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆🐆 jaguars

“but missionaries bring schools and hospitals to poor countries” that’s called humanitarian aid and trying to use humanitarian aid to get religious converts is actually SUPER fucked! hope this helps 🐆🐆🐆

since mrs, ms, and mr are all descended from the latin word magister, i propose the gender neutral version should be mg, short for “mage”

some people think this is a shitpost so i want to clarify that i am dead fucking serious. make mage the official gender neutral honorific NOW. i want it on my passport. i want it on my bank account. i want doctors and judges to use it for me. i don’t care if it sounds a little silly. people thought “missus” sounded crass at first. call me mg.

benefits of mg:

• easy to pronounce, even for children (though kids 4 & younger may pronounce it more like “mayd” or “maygh”)
• ONE SYLLABLE!!! (“individual” is too goddamn LONG.) you have to be able to say it quickly and casually
• ends in a soft vowel sound, so it’ll flow right into the next word (“ind” halts the whole sentence)
• fits neatly into the existing structure as a relative of master/mistress that can be abbreviated down to an m and one other letter
• distinct enough that it can’t be mistaken for either gendered term (if you call me mix I’ll kill you. it sounds like miss with extra steps)
• wizard.

drawbacks:

• there aren’t any
• yes, i know about milligrams and magnesium. i don’t give a shit. ms can also mean microsoft. who cares.

one other one that i haven’t seen much:

“Elon. It’s me. Ashley St Clair,” the message begins. “I have no other means of contacting you so I bought PoE2 early access just for this. Please pay your child support. Thank you Elon.”
