UM GUYS. I JUST NOTICED A CRAZY ISSUE W THE TUMBLR UPDATE.

image

YOU CAN SEE THE ICONS OF ANONS SOMETIMES.

image

The way I was able to recognize several anons in one of my inboxes bc of this error. Oh my god. Guys. This isn’t supposed to happen.

Weighing in to say:

YES, I SEE THIS ON MOBILE. HOWEVER I DO **NOT** THINK IT’S SHOWING THE ANON’S REAL IDENTITY.

The profile pictures I see next to anon asks are profile pictures that belong to other, non-anon asks in my ask box also.

Some info

  • there are 14 asks in my inbox from the last ~5 days
  • 9 anons, 5 logged in users
  • ALL 14 show pfps, including the 9 anons
  • ALL THE SHOWN PROFILE PICTURES BELONG TO THE 5 LOGGED IN USERS

I think the bug is the inbox INCORRECTLY attributing anons to neighboring, logged-in asks.

Which is still a bad bug! Considering it makes it look like a long-time follower of mine sent me a spam ask.

And is worse if, say, one of these was anon hate.

But it’s NOT the anon’s real identity. It’s a neighboring ask asker’s identity

So if you have anon hate in your inbox that looks like it’s attributed to your dear friend, who sends you lovely asks all the time, it was Not them.

A screenshot of anon ask. The bug is showing a small icon which is a black and white sketch of a person in star-shaped sunglasses.   the anon ask reads "In case you want more test data: hi! I’m thepatchycat with a cat icon on a blue background! If tumblr is showing any other icon it’s incorrect!  Thanks for the PSA, I can see how that bug could get real bad real fast."ALT

CONFIRMED THE BUG IS INCORRECT ATTRIBUTION.

Thanks @thepatchycat for being a test subject. As you can see the icon being attributed to this ask is NOT the patchy cat

The pictured icon belongs to @watchingforcomets who sent me a nice ask about nail polish yesterday which I have not yet answered!

LGBT people, I need you to know that any “pedophile execution bill” passed in the US is meant to put you, personally, to death. When the right says “groomer,” they’re talking about you. When they say “predator,” they’re talking about you. When they say “pedophile,” they’re talking about you. Any actual child sex abusers who are convicted and executed would be, to them, a happy accident, a cherry on top of a law that’s meant to exterminate anyone who deviates from the cisgender, heterosexual norm.

“but they can’t possibly think we’re all really child molesters”

if you haven’t already figured out that facts don’t matter to these people I don’t know what to tell you

girl what happened to just creating fanwork to satisfy your needs

going directly to the developers for canonical changes to the work has gotta stop like what happened to boundaries

if I can add to this: boundaries should be maintained by both sides

fan are very accessible now and fan validation feels really good but there should be some distance for the sake of your sanity and work

sometimes you put yourself out there & not everyone gets it & that’s just the nature of art

being entrenched in fandom as a creator seriously seriously seriously isnt worth it please dont do it

i had a dream i worked in an underwater restaurant and people kept ordering ice in their drinks and then getting mad at me when it would float away. and i’d tell them beforehand that the ice would float away & they’d be like lol no that’s not how it works just give me the ice. I’m fighting customer service battles never seen before

Takes a guy who’s obsessed with saving people even if it risks his life and a guy who is literally allergic to asking for help in any situation and puts them in My stew puts them in my fucking stew and stirs it

We literally cannot let them start charging 80 dollars for video games 70 dollars was already outrageous 60 was pushing it. 80 fucking dollars. ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR DAMN MIND. For MARIO?!?!?!?!?

If we don’t buy it, they’ll lower the price, just like the 3DS. They make more money from 2 million people buying it at $60 than 1 million at $80

Don’t even buy the console, don’t let them think they can get away with this

I refuse to live in a world where a console cartridge costs eighty fucking dollars

What the “haha millennials can’t even make phone calls” crowd fails to appreciate is that making phone calls is a far more user-hostile and physically uncomfortable experience than it was 15-20 years ago.

It used to be you picked up a landline, which had physical buttons and at its smallest was still 3x larger than a smartphone, dialed the actual location you wanted to call (instead of a corporate call center) and you could actually talk to someone with access to the store computer/government records/dinner reservations that actually fucking applied to you.


You could also actually hold the phone with your shoulder without it hurting, which freed your hands up to cook or eat, or type on a computer, etc. it didn’t require an accessory you had to keep charged. It was built into the phone’s physical design!!!

It sucks more to do phone calls now! Like it just does!!!

The most mundanely dehumanizing experience I’ve had in the last few years was when I called a domino’s to troubleshoot a pizza order and they directed me to a call center in a different state.

“We had to automate it because nobody would do the job!”

PAY YOUR FUCKING WORKERS

throwback to when I was working at my desk with Cu Rùa on my shoulder and suddenly heard a loud and abrupt fart… I genuinely was so startled at the volume of it and thought it was my dog but she was nowhere to be found. I turned my head and there he was, tail pointed down near my ear… next to a large pile of shit

“what was he doing on your shoulder” all of the animals that I’ve ever owned have had an affinity for my neck and shoulders. the perfect perching spot

“what was he doing on your shoulder?”

Shitting, next question

Hey OP, I read this post to a friend, and now she feels like she cannot know peace until she can hear the sound of a scorpion fart. She’s literally angrily ranting right now that she can’t find any recordings. “All I want for my birthday is audio of a scorpion pooping!” she just said. Please if you can.

Btw much as I love to make fun of twitter and reddit’s business decisions, I have 0% trust in tumblr’s management to not go a similar route so this is your gentle reminder that you should regularly go to your blog settings to export your blog. That’s a fancy way of saying you can download a backup of your blog so if everything goes down you’ll still have a backup of your posts & convos.

It’s gonna come as a surprise to most of you, but if you don’t want to do that for whatever reason you’re allowed to not reblog this post. I’m not holding a gun to your head here I’m just trying to spread the word for people who do want a backup of their stuff.

Also, made this guide for backup Tumblr blogs (ft. export blog method, and python 3 script method):
