matt just fired half the remaining tumblr support staff lmao

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.

If this is truly the beginning of the end, it's been an honour 🫡

Oh, okay. I see. You think this has nothing to do with you. You go to your closet and you select out, oh I don’t know, that gaslight gatekeep girlboss meme, for instance, because you’re trying to tell the world that you think modern feminism has been co-opted by corporations. But what you don’t know is that that meme is not from Instagram, it's not from Twitter, it's not from Tiktok, it’s actually from Tumblr. You’re also blithely unaware of the fact that in January 2021, Tumblr user missnumber1111 posted, "today's agenda: gaslight gatekeep and most importantly girlboss." And then I think it was a-m-e-t-h-y-s-t-r-o-s-e, wasn’t it, who reblogged it with an image of the phrase edited over a piece of "Live, Laugh, Love" wall art? And then gaslight gatekeep girlboss showed up in the feeds of eight different Twitter repost accounts. Then it filtered down through Instagram and then trickled on down into some tragic “alt side of Tiktok” where you, no doubt, fished it out of some clearance bin. However, that meme represents millions of notes and countless Tumblr users and so it’s sort of comical how you think that you’ve made a choice that exempts you from Tumblr when, in fact, you’re wearing the meme that was selected for you by the people in this room. From a pile of “stuff.”

"likes mean nothing on tumblr" you're sending me a little heart. that's not nothing it's your heart. look here's one for you <3

yeah. i've got the wikipedia page for rat. on cassette.

people are getting high as fuck on new stupid drug called "night drawing" its making them stay iup all the goddamn night drawing. and brother let me tell you. the drawings. not even good

so loving men isn't a curse. loving men isn't "unfortunate". loving men isn't a bad thing. yes, we can joke about how awful men can be, but it gets to a a point where this mentality can really hurt. it can really feed into you hating yourself for something you can't control. loving men is something special. loving yourself is just as beautiful.

another reminder that it's okay to love men. it's okay to be a man. it's okay to love men whilst being a man. loving men isn't sacrilege.

my boyfriend just confessed his love to me today. i feel as though a field of flowers have bloomed in my soul and im filled with sunshine. we're two boys in love and that's just fine

Grocery shopping, even online is a nightmare. It's like when somebody asks what do you want for Christmas" and you forget everything you've ever desired, except I have to do it every 2 weeks or so. "Hey what food do you want us to bring you" I don't fuckign. know. I've never eaten in my life.

They should invent a service that decides healthy, well-rounded meals for me and brings me the ingredients so I don't have to think about oh fuck that's hellofresh I'm just reinventing hellofresh

Everyone in the notes telling me to keep some kind of running list or use recipe apps is vastly overestimating my organisational skills. Last week I treated myself to an expensive half pineapple, completely forgot about it, and found it yesterday and ate the entire thing in one sitting because it was the last day that I trusted it to be edible. I lean hard into frozen and tinned foods not because I don't have time to cook but because they won't rot in my freezer. When I look up recipes my #2 concern (#1 is cost of ingredients) is not taste or nutrition, it's "if I forget to cook this for 3 days, then cook it and dump it in the freezer and forget about it for 11 months, then defrost it and forget about it in the fridge for 3 more days, will it still be good." I am not. Organised enough for this.

Dear god this looks amazing
