Whenever Someone Makes Fun Of His Outfits, My Heart Sinks. Be Nice To Him. He's Too Sweet For This World.

Hi trans person from the UK here. If you still give money to that vile hag via HP or any other way kindly get off my blog and I hope you're hit by a bus because you think your nostalgia is more important than people's lives.

how does it feel to be surrounded by other delusional, left-wing scumbags in that echo chamber you call a 'fandom'?

It feels pretty good, actually! I like being surrounded by people who share my values and ethics because it makes me feel safe and supported. But, more than anything, it feels really really good not to be surrounded by fascists.

"This is not Iraq or Afghanistan......this is a relatively civilized, relatively European city"- Charlie D'Agata

"These are not refugees from Syria. They are Christians and white" - NBC News, Kelly Cobiella

"It's really emotional for me because I see European people with blue eyes and blonde hair being killed" -David Sakvarelidez

Then Prince William of United Kingdom: "For our generation, it's very alien to see this in Europe. We're all right behind you."

We think that's where it stops but no the Prime minister of Bulgaria, Kiril Petkov Petkov comes out to say this wisdom “These are not the refugees we are used to… these people are Europeans, these people are intelligent, they are educated people.... This is not the refugee wave we have been used to, people we were not sure about their identity, people with unclear pasts, who could have been even terrorists…”

What the hell do they think they are doing??!!?!?!?

Going on the TV and saying that

Do civilized people say things like that?

Because the people in Asia, Africa and South America are dumb terrorists who lives in caves and are so used to bombs and dying, it's their daily life and a normal activity but IN EUROPE NOO these are human beings with loves and stories and dreams not like anywhere else.

War is not normal, shouldn't be normalized in other countries just because they're not European white, blonde with blue eyes.

Wars in Asia and the Middle East and Africa And South America are not normal. Wars on black, brown, Asians are not normal.

Kids being killed because of politics is not normal.

Yes, we feel sorry for Ukraine because innocent people are dying, but the hypocrisy that is shown on the news is maddening and disgusting.

Kashmir, Uighur, Palestine, Yemen, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, and anywhere else where the media doesn't cover.

We support all of you, and it doesn't hurt less because you don't look like me.

Look, I’ll be real, a part me is really glad that this website is going to be somewhat revitalized by the inevitable migration of Twitter refugees post-Elon purchase. Staff has been doing great! Tumblr deserves an active userbase because this website fucks harder than any other social media bar none! It is unequivocally the best social experience online!

But oh my sweet Lord god in heaven help me the existential terror of having Twitter slither in here to promote its normalization of persistent social abuse, its puritanical means-testing of surface level ideological commitment, and its disgustingly narcissistic perpetuation of pervasive cultural pessimism is a genuine nightmare that I am not prepared to deal with.

Like, Tumblr has a such a unique and rare method of social interaction that disincentives the kind of low-effort, low-stakes (until it’s suddenly not) engagement that runs wild on Twitter. Beyond all odds, Tumblr’s culture of artful shitposting mixed with thoughtful consideration has SOMEHOW managed to survive the whitewashing of the internet. We’re a living fossil in a fragile ecosystem. Twitter is an obliterate of any positive subculture; it panders exclusively to the lowest common denominator of online engagement, and then further feeds that into a toxic mentality of enabling the weaponization of internet clout. It’s a race to the bottom where the loser wins. You can’t get clout on Tumblr because engagement has largely been anonymized, and the userbase in general has deliberately fostered a culture of not giving a shit about being popular. Follower counts here do not matter. And that is a good thing – that is something we should want to protect and encourage.

And don’t get me wrong, Tumblr is built on the fundamental lowbrow. We all appreciate being crass, being strange, being ‘unmarketable.’ But this is Shakespearean lowbrow at its core. It’s shitposting painted by Picasso way more often than it is shitposting sold as a fucking NFT. Our reverence for quality stupid actually contributes positively and uniquely to engagement (most of the time), and that feeds into even more positive and unique engagement as users reblog and add their own contributions to the post. Retweeting something will just never have that effect.

I cannot remember the number of dumb, one-off jokes I’ve seen reblogged into beautiful efforts of collective poetry. I’ve seen posts asking if Ezra Pound and T.S Elliot fucked like rabid animals turned into significant contributions of literary analysis for their respective works. I’ve seen the stupidest fucking takes morphed into powerful pieces of social commentary by people who cared enough to contribute their time, their effort to do so: to create something worthwhile. That one post about the value of gold and silver in the post-apocalypse comes to mind. Like, that’s the kind of thing that could never have survived, much less become prominent and valued, on Twitter. It would sink to the bottom there and never resurface: digital echoes that promise something special, something worthwhile, but are fundamentally wasted and buried in the chaotic din of scramblingly awful takes. 

I guess I’m just saying that I don’t want that to happen here. I like Tumblr, and I want Tumblr to prosper, but not at the expense of all the things that make it wonderful in the first place.
