MOST ACTIVE HERE. Ficcing and complaining about writing. Also find fic that I won’t post anywhere else (or that I’m doing a test run on). Nonfiction headcanons.
Let’s be honest, if you’re here, you probably already know about my AO3. This will remain active.
I’m going to miss all of you. But Tumblr is totally unworkable for me now. I can’t post visual art, because it’ll get flagged. I can’t work around @staff and their meticulous incompetence that allows bullies and nazis free rein on this site, but punishes content creators. Tumblr isn’t a safe place for creators. It never was, due to the standoffish nature of @staff about harassment. Now it’s just… impossible.
It’s not just a matter of practicality. I won’t generate ad revenue for a blatantly unethical company.
One of the reasons I feel so comfortable using Tumblr over other social media is because this site is clearly too incompetent to be evil.
The basic business model of a social network is to harvest commercially valuable personal data and sell it, most famously via targeted ads. Anyone visiting my blog can clearly see that I am a queer furry who’s into video games and art. And yet I am only served ads for funeral homes, Bible story DVDs, and the current president’s reelection campaign (in 2018 for some reason)
Needless to say my click through rate has not been very good
Me: Runs a blog dedicated to dungeons and dragons and anime Tumblr: You know what, you strike me as a sporty type
I’m a social media manager for my day job and Tumblr is literally the only social media platform I can relax on anymore because it’s so incompetent when it comes to exploiting my personal data.
Among all the plot twists of 2018 and the rest of this hellspawn timeline, I did not anticipate Tumblr to produce such a far-reaching and momentous display of the drawbacks of Neutral Stupid as an alignment to depend on.
Mine just shows me increasingly bizarre shit on amazon.

I’m a super newbie with Dreamwidth. If I want your post to show up when I log there, should I click “add to your circle” or “track account”?
I too am a super newbie but I’ve been clicking “add to your circle”
itmoto: I love your ficlets that are not uploaded on ao3. Like the memory-lost tfp megatron and so on. If you delete this blog I’ll be so sad 😢 anyway thank you for letting me and others know where to find you!
Dreamwidth will be the new home for those. Follow me there and tell me what you want reposted. Almost all of the important stuff I’ve uploaded to tumblr is stored on my computer, because I don’t trust tumblr to store anything that matters.
I am going to keep reblogging this obnoxiously so all of you can find me.
And I’m already posting a dreamwidth exclusive fic…
Reblogging again. This is where to find me after the 17th!
Every time I reblog this I get more followers on my other accounts. Please look me up there! There are 655 of you and I don’t want to lose all of ya!
I love those discord chats where you only know one person’s name so it’s like “yes these are my friends dragonfucker, gandalf, the raven lord, 6000 bees, and George”

Just went through my followers to try and follow them on other platforms and holy shit, tumblr unfollowed a TON of people I follow. Sorry guys. One more reason I’m bailing from this blue hellsite.
