OUGH

Well, darn. You'a caught us banning a disproportionate number of'a trans women, people of'a color, trans people in'a general, and other such'a things. These suspensions took ten thousand'a years to reverse, and some of them we didn't even reverse because we'a fucking hate you.

We'a sorry it took so long to address this! We'a really hoping our pathetic april fools gimmick'a distract everyone else to'a forget about the situation! And for most of you, it'a worked! We'a can't discuss our trust and safety issues publicly because the paper on our board just'a say "get rid of all the people we consider freaky" and if we announce that we'a gonna lose our privilaged "Tumblr’s userbase has the highest proportion of LGBTQIA+ folks on social media" claim!

One thing we want to emphasize is that we are stupid, stupid, stupid'a people. Our CEO, Matt Mullenweg, is a pathetic moron who'a try sucking up to'a Elon Musk on'a X despite the tire fire over there. You'a know he searches up his own name and harasses Tumblr blogs whenever they'a say bad things about him, right? We moderate this website with extreme bias and will cry like'a babies when called out on it.

We understand that the communications sent to affected'a users, and our broader silence to'a the community, didn't meet the standard people expect from us. Or rather, it has become the standard and the userbase'a livid with us. We'a plan on announcing changes to how we do this and not actually following through with them, because we'a do not care.

Going forward, we're committed to ruling with impunity: lying wholesale when confronted with our'a faults, and never sharing any information outside of'a vagueposting.

Tumblr belongs to everyone. Except'a minorities, people of color, trans people, and anyone who'a advocates for them.

To the people whose accounts were affected, and to the members of our trans community who felt targeted: eat'a shit.

Top: a common urban legend surrounding Mario Kart 64 concerns this unique Thwomp in a cage on the Bowser's Castle track, who appears to be green. The mystery of why a Thwomp would be caged, and his seemingly unique coloration, led to many players believing he had some hidden significance and could be instrumental to unlocking some secret functionality in the game.

Bottom: in reality, the Thwomp isn't green at all. He is merely being lit with pure yellow light, which has the effect of making the blue appear green. This effect can be replicated in an image editing program by overlaying the Thwomp with a layer of pure yellow (#FFFF00) and setting the blending to "multiply", which results in the exact same coloration.

It is likely that the reason players assumed the Thwomp was green was because the yellow lighting being entirely localized to the inside of the cage is highly unnatural (note the floor of the cage also sharply changing color on the other side of the bars). If the lighting in the entire room was yellow, or if the yellow lighting bled through the cage into the room in a more realistic manner, it is possible that the lighting-based nature of the Thwomp's color would have been more apparent and the confusion avoided.

opinion on Whomps?

Now.

It’s time for the lesson of the’a day!

The Fae can’a really screw you over if you’a give someone else’s name when they ask for yours!

Don’t do what this man has done, instead, refuse to state your name if someone asks, even if the person asking is’a stranger or loved one! Because they’a could be Fae in disguise!

Support your local fuckin' trans people. They've been fighting tooth and nail just to get the right to breathe the same air as everyone else.
