Dipper the Golden

tumblr could not have changed everything at a worse time for me. I had only just started getting back on my feet, using my side blog to promote a certain side job (sorry, mom). It was going pretty well, I at least made one rent payment… 3 months ago. Because now my hours were cut in the store I work at, because that is the nature of small businesses. 

Now I owe 1,000$ to my landlord, and more to my parents for when they helped me out months ago. 

Please help me out. I’ve run out of places to turn. I’ve picked up side jobs around my city, but it’s not enough. I’m down to one meal a day, two if I can pick up enough bottles for taco bell. i’ve been applying for jobs daily, but it’s the end of the semester in a 75% college city. You do the math. 

I started that side job out of desperation (and a little fun, but mostly desperation). it was the only thing i could do around my weird schedule of activism and classes. 

sexworkers are good here as long as what they post is tagged. the gore thing is :// but like the person said sexworkers are supported here.

all of this. all of this is hot as hell. 

they actually have specific rules disallowing pedophiles and nazis+the terfs from the last screenshot.

dogpiling and harrassment and stalking is listed as a no go thank fucking god??

there is not one specific staff account as each member of staff has their own thing so it’d be most likely easier to get in touch with them

and the best part

a peek at the list of blocked domains?

ive legit been on this site for ten minutes and i feel safer on this site than ive ever been on tumblr. again im not like, leaving tumblr but this place is nice as hell.

Mostly same features but with extra features like…

No bullying.

No kids.

No one under 18.

Stronger blocking tools.

All the female associated nipples you can handle.

Well first…its EXTREMELY slow as there seem to be a lot of people from Tumblr moving there.

I am not kidding…I can’t figure out how to post a picture…

It seems like you post to a keyword…and everyone sees that keyword.  Like if I created a new keyword

“BDSM Collars”

I could post there…and others post there as well…

I see the benefits and negatives as well.  Because you “follow” those keywords as I call em.

I was just semi-complaining that I was still looking for a decent way to backup my +6k posts without having to use paid services or even just wordpress (which has an import from tumblr tool that asks for permission to access your blog and also make posts), when I decided to actually put some effort into my google search. 

Results were positive: I have successfully backed up my blog* 

*By which I mean: everything that I have ever posted.  Not included: drafts, queue, likes, followers, following, comments, notes, chat. 

I followed this method (word by word), and now have a 450 MB folder on my computer with the name of my blog on it containing: 

1. Folder “Archive” (contains .html files listed by month) 2. Folder “Media” (contains gifs and images, mine has +1k files in it; might contain also audios but I have no way of confirming that because I’ve never reblogged an audio post from this blog) 3. Folder “Posts” (contains single .html files, each one a post; I have +4k files in it) 4. Folder “Theme” (contains only my avatar, but it might be a matter of if you have personalized themes or not) 5. .html file “Index” (by opening it it will give you the archive of your blog organized by month; clicking on a month will open up the archive for that month, and you’ll be able to read all the posts for that month as if you were on your blog**, except sans your theme graphic, with each page containing 50 posts)

**I can see gifs, links, embedded videos, tags, number of notes (but I can’t open up the notes, clearly), text is also correctly formatted. 

So yeah, in case anyone wants a very quick way to back up their blog, it took me less than 10 minutes. 

Soup.io - well-known alternative to Tumblr. Reblogging, post types, themes, collab blogs, dashboard, artsy, great community already there. Soup can auto-import everything you’ve posted on Tumblr.

TypePad - Includes reblogging. Dashboard and post types similar to Tumblr.

My go-to tactic: kiss them until they go weak and they forget you’re fighting.

Become overly affectionate, and once they think they’ve won, roll on top of them and pin them.

Have handcuffs and the like ready to grab and spring on them.

Limit your attacks to pain you know they like. Scratch and pinch and slap in the places they can’t help but enjoy. A good hard spank and some subs will buckle and drop instinctively.

Don’t fear a good old hair grab. Especially because it gives you access to vulnerable neck.

Detailing exactly what you will do to them when you win - and that’s not if, that’s when - will lower any sub’s morale considerably.

If they’re pushing an arm or leg down, pulling down yourself, faster, often pulls out of their grip.

Wriggle. Especially wriggle into them.

Use all your limbs. Lock your legs around them as well as your arms. Don’t be afraid to squeeze - you’ve got a safeword.

Are they ticklish? You know the score.
