Folks, backup your Tumblrs, for real this time
To be clear, I don't have any news about any impending doom. But I've heard a bit more about what's going on with staff after the layoff of last week, and there are even less people than I thought still working here.
I don't think even the current staff know what's going to happen, but honestly, I don't see how the high ups could even pretend to intend to keep this place open while virtually unstaffed.
And of course, if the most despicable thing happens, you can find me at @[email protected] from any fediverse platform 🤷
for reference, OP is a former employee of Tumblr who tries to keep up to date with tumblr’s inner workings. please back your blogs up.
In your blog settings you have the ability to initiate a blog export, and this will generate a backup for your blog.
Fair warning though, if you've been on the platform for a long time this archive is likely to be quite hefty in file size. This blog I have had for 5 years with 22k posts, and the export from tumblr came to be 48GB. My previous blog I made in 2011 and has 95k posts, so needless to say I did not use tumblr's built in export to back that one up.
If you want more control over exactly what you back up from your blog, I recommend that you use tumblr-utils instead. It allows you to backup specific tags, post types, and to ignore posts that you did not create (reblogs where you've added a comment count as a post you created, to be clear).
To use it:
download and install python 2.7
download tumblr-utils
create an application on tumblr to get an api key
extract the tumblr-utils zip and open the tumblr_backup.py file in notepad
search for "API" and paste in your OAuth consumer key
then go back to the folder where you extracted tumblr-utils and choose open folder in terminal / command prompt, or type cmd.exe in the address bar while inside the folder
now in the window that opens it should show the current path, and you can type "py -2 .\tumblr_backup.py [your options] [your blog name]" and hit enter. Example:
Backing up just my original posts from this blog with this command came to 632MB rather than 48GB, and also gave me the option to save my posts in JSON format which will be useful for converting my posts to a new format for self hosting.
On that note I'm currently looking into figuring out a simple (and ideally free) way of self hosting a static site blog that utilises activitypub, and also converting my old posts to re-host on said blog.
This post series by maho.dev on implementing activitypub with any static site is my primary source of guidance atm if you also want to try figure that out yourself, as well as having an explanation for why you'd even want to do this if you don't already know
but if tumblr goes down before I get things sorted and write up a post about it then i'll be reporting back on it via my bsky, mastodon, and toyhouse accounts
if you dont have an account on any of these I'll also be sharing an update via my personal site's RSS feed, link of which includes an explanation of what RSS is and some feed readers you can use, I highly recommend checking it out as getting a feed reader is going to be the best way you can stay connected with people if they scatter across the internet!
tldr: download tumblr-utils to backup your blog more efficiently, introduce yourself to RSS and get a feed reader to stay connected with people, consider saving mine so you can find out how to self host your blog later if tumblr goes down
i have already personally backed up all of my tumblr posts but this is a good reminder for everyone else
what?
did 8 bring you a watermelon??
i've been sending watermelons out to the city to throw at unsuspecting passerby. i think eight would think its funny though

hi! new bracelets dropped on my etsy :3

"I just...medical service...maybe?"
He squeaked. "Hold on, how did you-no, no that's not the important part right now. One sec..." He snapped his fingers, summoning several bots to his side. "What happened? Where are you hurt?"

"I have a virus of some sort....I think"
A little hum of acknowledgement. "Okay, got it. Can I, um...open you up? Just on the back of your head."
...$û43
she closed her eyes
"...sure"
Doing just that, he stayed quiet for a good bit as he worked. Usually, he was quite talkative, so it was clear that the situation was very serious in nature. Eventually, though, he spoke up. "How long has this been going on? It looks like the virus has a pretty bad hold on you..."
!...d∅ñt kñ∅w
"I don't know"
He only responded with a small hum. "Okay, let me just..." A few clicks and sparks, and he grinned. "That should fix the speech problem, at least..."
H-how did you...?
A little laugh. "Oh, don't worry about it. I just have some good luck, really. Do you feel any better?"
...A little
He smiled brightly. "Good! Unfortunately, the rest of it...seems hardcoded in. I...I can't do anything about that." The smile faded from his face as quickly as it had come. "I'm sorry. I wish I could help more..."
"Ahh you must be the other part of Me!? I don't think we've m-met!"

. . .
What?
Oh, oh jeez...
[He's looking around, a bit panicked. There's quite a bit happening...with a quick movement, a few more bots move over to begin maintenance on the fallen bot, while he turns back to the injured individual.]
They turn back on much to tbe confusion of being handled by different bots "W-What Happened? Dod I shut off again" They spoke acting as if them shutting off at random was a normal occurrence
"Um. Y-yes, you did...do you malfunction frequently?" He looked concerned, chewing at his lip. "Are you a memory injection bot or an armor bot? How often does this happen? Do you-ah! Sorry, sorry, I'm a little overwhelmed, um..." He coughed, shaking his hands a little. "Let's...go back to the first question. Does this happen often?"
"Mmmm maybe?" They said looking away embarrassed "It depends if I get overwhelmed or it'll happen at random... ever since uhh....."
They stopped quickly changing the subject. "I'm not sure what kind of bot I am anymore my original directive was to assist those getting through the spire.
until well order did That! ..... It must've messed with my systems somehow. ever since I merged with 4... I have thoughts and feelings now I think... I think I may be broken..."
He hummed a bit. "Hm...okay, noted. There's probably a short in the emotion chip, since I was always intended to connect to the bot's interface..."
A beat, and an embarrassed cough. "Um. But you're not broken, really. I think...you're just overloaded. Emotions are big things, y'know? But I can help you, if you want."
"Is that why I'm always stuck in the inbetween phase? and shutting off?"
They asked tilting their head "What do you think would help?" They asked fidgeting with loose wireing nervous
"Order said it could help me and yet I'm still?... was I always supposed to have emotions? something must have changed when I merged with 4 and messed with the coding...."
"Ah...it depends, but I'm going to go with the assumption that you were supposed to have them." He was studying them curiously, his eyes fixing on the loose wiring. "Do you mind if I check your wiring? I don't want to make you uncomfortable, so it's okay if not."
"Check my?... ah yes of course you may.... -!"
Parallel cannon stopped suddenly glitching out once more,
before returning back to their usual state fidgeting with their hands uncomfortably.
"After my ... uh fight with 8 it... some of my parts fell out." They stated plainly looking around "Are the others supposed to have feelings too?.." They inquired
He frowned as he approached, kneeling down to mess with the wiring. "It was only supposed to be the one I, or...your Agent 4 would interact with. The rest just follow. Why, are they?"
"Oh... I'm.... I'm not so sure ..... its odd... The others were meant to follow others but when order greyscaled everything... The bots were different?... they all were the extreme of one feeling I suppose... Anger, jealousy sadness... at least my multiples I mean I'm not so sure of the others" The bot shrugged unsure of themself
"Hm." He frowned, pulling a tool out of...somewhere and starting to work. "That's interesting. I suppose that works with what Marina had planned for the Spire, but...hm. Maybe I should tell her about this, even if you are from a different...universe." There was a spark, and he winced. "Sorry. I'm not sure if there's anything I can do about the emotions right now, but I think I can fix the physical malfunctioning, at least."
"Ah... Why did order greyscale everything I mean.... Why was the mem-verse created? there is much to wonder about my creation why I was made this way i-if I'm a copy of someone else's memorys!? "
They started to shake. fidgeting with their hands uncomfortably as they stated the thoughts in their head seemingly setting them into a nervous questioning of their own existence.
Realizing their mistake they covered their mouth uncomfortably eyes wide with a nervous fear.
If-... If Marina found out she'd... She'd reset them !
They thought fearfully jumping to conclusions the wireing starting to spark with their paranoia. It fidgeted nervous hoping caspian hadn't heard the last part. Very unlikely with how loud they spoke
He didn't seem phased, only gently shushing the other. "It's okay. You're safe here, whatever it is you were worried about." He paused in his work to give them a reassuring smile. "And, well...the Memverse was originally created to help people. It was just a malfunction that created Order as a physical being...at least in my universe. You weren't supposed to be a copy, exactly...more like a host?"
"s-sorry about that ...." They apologized fidgeting and trying to relax from their paranoia spike
"Why would I be supposed to be a host?" They questioned "Doesn't everyone get their own avatar? and If I'm not a copy then Why do I have all your memories?"
They tilted their head they had questions. They had a Lot of questions
"The boss wouldn't delete me right or reset me if.... if my systems had defected right?" They asked softly most likely talking about marina
He frowned. "She...shouldn't, unless yours isn't as kind. If...if you're in any danger, I can keep you safe here. This is a safe haven, after all." Letting out a soft sigh, he sat back. "I guess it depends on your universe. Here, the lead was supposed to just be...armor for me, for the most part. Head of security and all that. But I could see why other Fours would want a digital version instead."
He looked a bit sad as he studied the bot. "I knew the dangers of transferring my digital consciousness, and I decided against it. Yours, though...well. I'm sorry you got stuck like this."
"Marina is kind but well...." They stopped fidgeting the air heavy as they struggled to speak "A-... A ... well one of the test goers They... They were odd..." They commented "They were different from the other testers I fought.... Loose wireing metal joints and an odd voice. He was very different in comparison to the other testers He knew why he was there somehow and He.... When I came up against him after the whole greyscaling incident well. he- ... He said Marina would delete me the instant she found out I-....." They stopped moving on "He said he would." They frowned before moving to caspians next statement
"It... It wasn't really their fault necessarily.... When the whole greyscaling thing happened well.. Their fragment of a soul got stuck into my body because their Avatar had been well.... it wasn't a pretty sight when I woke up after my memorie chip had been smashed together with their memories, Hopes , Anger ,Hatred..." They stopped frowning "Do all of you guys hurt?...." They asked most likely meaning the emotional kind.
He looked a bit startled. "Uhm...no, it's just me, I think. The others aren't supposed to...but, I suppose, under those circumstances..." Looking off to one side, he pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed.
"I'm pretty sure I know who you're talking about. He's been taken care of for now, so...it's okay. If we get you to my Marina, she can help you out more...if you're okay with that. If not, I...think I know someone else who can help, too."
