SHARE TO SAVE TUMBLR!

- Let’s try and get 100k notes

True shit

A review by one of the folks sums it up perfectly:

“What worries me about Yahoo! buying Tumblr is how it would choose to incorporate the website into its email and homepage features. One of the reasons why Tumblr is so unique is because it’s a niche market. By adding more users who don’t fit into this niche, it would make it more difficult for communities to develop within Tumblr, and Tumblr would have to change to accommodate these new users. Tumblr as a website is not the kind that you can sign up for in a day and be on your way. It is a website crafted so that you can immediately post but must spend several weeks, sometimes even months, to build a community. With new users who would not be willing to spend time growing a community, Tumblr would have to be changed, which would alienate its current users. Those users have spent time and effort to make Tumblr what it is today, and they are the ones who spend time on the website daily. A user who is checking onto Tumblr because it’s attached to their homepage is not going to be as strong of a user nor as dedicated. By changing the website to suit this new user, you would lose the strong users while building an undedicated usership.

To any website that would think of buying Tumblr, they must understand that it is a website that cannot be changed to make it more user friendly to a casual blogger. I think that many Tumblr users would be less worried about a buy-out if they were promised that their communities and ways of using Tumblr would not be changed. No one is going to mind Yahoo! buying the website and gaining a few extra million dollars per year from the minimal advertising; what we will be upset with is if a company like Yahoo! then changes the website to increase casual users and decrease dedicated users. Yahoo! would gain nothing by losing this “cool” group of bloggers in an age group they so desperately want to reach, so they must cater to these individuals by leaving the website exactly as is.” - houseoftombombadil

As much as is does sound like a load of bullshit for someone to buy Tumblr, it’s a possibility. I Personally think it should stay independent and I hope David Karp keeps a hold of it like his own child. Or we make enough noise to where such major changes (if bought) will not happen. I would hate to see Tumblr turned into an advertising dump.

We’re not a ‘hip fad group’ to be marketed to. I hate the fact that’s all we look like to businesses in the end.

So I got sent to the dean today for wearing this top. My study tech teacher said that I was “exploiting” myself and that it could be a distraction to the other students. I got up out of my seat and told her that I wasn’t going to listen to her dress codes. In a way, she was being misogynist and slut shaming and I think that’s wrong. I will continue to wear what I want and nobody can tell me not to. The fact that womens bodies are sexualized and objectified so much angers me and that’s the reason why this happened. I’m going to wear what I want, how I want, when I want and that’s it.

I was there, reblog the shit out of this guys

I’m a guy. I can’t wear a shirt like this either, even though I’m not going to be wearing a bra. it’s dress code. It’s not slut shaming. You can’t show your bra like that at most jobs. why should you at school? Yes sexism is wrong and all that, but you can’t get ‘angry at the patriarchy” because you can’t show your undergarments in public. I’m not going to wear jeans with a rip in the side or the front that show off my flowery boxers, because that’s just not appropriate for school. Have some professionalism. You can wear whatever you like at home or with your friends or whatever, yes, but school prepares you for real life.

At work you can’t have this attitude of “I wear the fuck ever I want.” and expect to keep your job. School is the same way because it’s trying to teach you that lesson. That’s unrealistic; almost any job you get is going to have someone tell you what to wear or what to do because you work for them and you represent their company. If you don’t look the way they need you to look, that makes them look bad. A tattoo parlor probably isn’t going to hire someone who dresses like a nun and a top company isn’t going to hire someone who comes to work in a tank top that shows off her bra or a guy that shows off his ballsack.

You can’t blame patriarchy for this, I’m sorry. You can’t blame sexism for this. If I wore booty shorts and you could almost see my balls through my semi transparent flowery goddamn boxers, I would get in the same amount of trouble as you, and it’s within good reason.

like, yeah, being distracting and exploiting yourself is a dumb thing to say but dont show your bra at school cuz its just not the place for that?? like that bra isnt even black or subtle, just put on a bandeau and that outfit is fine

Bastava togliersi il reggiseno, eh.

Note a Margine: LA CASA:

Stanotte l’ho visto.

Mi sono tendenzialmente annoiato, a causa di una sceneggiatura che non tenta nemmeno di scappare dalle solite banalità del tipico canovaccio dell’horror-remake.

Non basta inserire degli effetti di make up e/o protesi (ottimi tra l’altro, stavo per dare di stomaco) per far venire paura a qualcuno… e certamente non mi ha impedito di sbadigliare, cosa che ho fatto spesso, fra un brontolìo lanciato nei confronti degli autori di questo filmetto.
A un certo punto ero indeciso se vomitare o sbadigliare…e ho capito che la sensazione dominante era lo sbadiglio.

When you watch most of the audience walk out of a Marvel film at the beginning of the credits.

Aiya Van Kooten everyone

When Aiya Van Kooten stood face-to-face with a burglar in her bedroom, her left eye twitched, then she went into “predator mode”.

“I screamed at him… jumped off my chair, leaped over my bed and sprinted after him down the stairs,” she said.

http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/crime/8626910/Predator-mode-scares-off-burglars

This is the best story of my life

“Although she was the only one home, Van Kooten said she had no regard for her safety - instead, she said she was just overwhelmed with “rage“….. ummmmm Hero!!!

Haha, badass Muslim woman. Love it!!!

This lady is so awesome. She lives with her grandma and was studying and had a towel on her head and no shoes but she chased them out of her garden, kicked one up the arse as he climbed a fence, they dropped a camera and laptop, she flagged down a passing driver to help her continue the pursuit, and it turned out he was ex-military, and they finally caught one of them in a park and pinned him as the police arrived. Now she’s going to visit the burglar in prison for the next few months to help with his rehabilitation.

So in summary:

This lady doesn’t just defend her home and loved ones, she will hunt you down, team up with other skilled individuals, get you put away, and then teach you the consequences of your actions until you’re a valuable member of society once more.

Seriously she’s a frigging superhero.

“

How they must bleed for us. In 2012, the world’s 100 richest people became $241 billion richer. They are now worth $1.9 trillion: just a little less than the entire output of the United Kingdom.

This is not the result of chance. The rise in the fortunes of the super-rich is the direct result of policies. Here are a few: the reduction of tax rates and tax enforcement; governments’ refusal to recoup a decent share of revenues from minerals and land; the privatisation of public assets and the creation of a toll-booth economy; wage liberalisation and the destruction of collective bargaining.

The policies that made the global monarchs so rich are the policies squeezing everyone else. This is not what the theory predicted. Friedrich Hayek, Milton Friedman and their disciples – in a thousand business schools, the IMF, the World Bank, the OECD and just about every modern government – have argued that the less governments tax the rich, defend workers and redistribute wealth, the more prosperous everyone will be. Any attempt to reduce inequality would damage the efficiency of the market, impeding the rising tide that lifts all boats. The apostles have conducted a 30-year global experiment, and the results are now in. Total failure.

[…]

As I say, I have no dog in this race, except a belief that no one, in this sea of riches, should have to be poor. But staring dumbfounded at the lessons unlearned in Britain, Europe and the US, it strikes me that the entire structure of neoliberal thought is a fraud. The demands of the ultra-rich have been dressed up as sophisticated economic theory and applied regardless of the outcome. The complete failure of this world-scale experiment is no impediment to its repetition. This has nothing to do with economics. It has everything to do with power.

Artemis Crock + I M M O R T A L I T Y

The first time Artemis Crock died, she was crushed by a bus. She was twelve. Her father picked her up from the morgue, where she’d awoke in a metal box screaming for someone to let her out. Her father thought it was a gift. Artemis disagrees. She’s a girl with nine lives, a girl with many sides. Which way will they kill her today? She wonders if she’ll ever die, if this truly is some sort of ungodly curse she’s been given.

And she knows the words of the oracle from long ago, a constant echo in the back of her head:

Sibylla ti theleis? (What do you want, Sibyl?)

Apothanein thelô. (I want to die.)

“

andranno sul privato. usciranno fotografie di andreotti con innocenti nipotini sulle ginocchia, a cavalluccio. vedremo le feste coi parenti, e magari sentiremo qualche testimonianza di quando le campagne le andava a fare con l’apecar e il megafono, nel frosinate. faranno il possibile per mostrarci il lato umano, un lato umano di andreotti che accarezza i bambini, coccola i gattini e pettina le bambole. forse, farà volare gli asini, dall’aldilà.

ma non è questo che interessa. a me, almeno.

a me interessa sapere quello che sapeva pasolini, quei segreti contenuti nei suoi io so, quei segreti che pelosi un po’ racconta un po’ no. a me interessa sapere chi c’era quella mattina di marzo a via fani. m’interessa sapere chi ha messo la bomba sull’italicus. m’interessa sapere dov’è finito il memoriale completo di aldo moro e dove si nasconde il collezionista di borse, che al momento sembra avere quella di dalla chiesa, quella di moro, quella di borsellino, agenda compresa. m’interessano i dettagli dei baci mafiosi di andreotti.

a me interessa capire, vedere chiaro, non essere protetta contro la mia volontà da una verità che preferisco di gran lunga alla bugia di stato. a me interessa sapere chi ha ammazzato mattei. chi ha ammazzato ambrosoli. chi ha ammazzato questo paese, consegnandolo in mano a un segretario scribacchino e azzeccagarbugli e a tutti i suoi sodali, fondatori di un partito che, ancora oggi, mi governa.

non m’interessa se andreotti abbia avuto o no un lato umano. questo riguarda i suoi parenti, che piangono l’uomo che hanno amato e che li ha protetti, in mezzo a un paese che non è stato amato dai suoi politici ed è stato protetto da se stesso a costo della libertà.

non c’è sacrificio che valga la libertà, non c’è bugia che protegga alcunché. da qualche parte, al sicuro da tempo, c’è sicuramente l’archivio di andreotti, che non è leggenda. esiste. da qualche parte, giace, insabbiato, il futuro che questo paese avrebbe potuto avere, da qualche parte, giace il paese che avremmo potuto essere.

riposi in pace giulio andreotti, non abbia pace l’onorevole andreotti.
