Ok. Just culled ~20,000 of 25,000 #tumblr posts accumulated via #RSS over a month. I've gotta get to work on my own project applying basic statistics to this stuff. Think "reverse chronological + $all_your_own_filtering_and_sorting_and_bucketing". Not sure if I should do that within the confines of a #thunderbird add-on, or try some other approach. I really, really want to be able to use #sql for this stuff. It's a natural fit. But #sqlite seems to be a no-go for #WebExtensions. There is only #IndexedDB, which, in my limited experience with it, is absolute garbage to work with.

Here's an idea of what sort of ads Matt Mullenweg allows on Tumblr (cw: graphic violent content / gun violence)

For far too long these ads have been persistently running on tumblr despite reports of their harmful and graphically violent nature. As I point out, as a user I would be expected to apply a community label for mature / violence to post the video of that ad that runs natively on tumblr.

It's rather disgraceful, and sure, you might not have much pick in ads, but the least you could do is make sure they're not literally gun violence.

Yay. It seems #tumblr deleted my old blog without warning, explanation or anything. I tried contacting the support multiple times, but I never received a confirmation e-mail about my case. Guess my blog is lost.
Well, nevermind, it's only been a few important years of my life anyway. Fuck tumblr I guess. 😐

4chan: dead (and good riddance).

tumblr: Everyone's fired, probably shutting down?

wordpress: Run by the psycho who bought & fired tumblr, and is having a war with an ISP.

tooter, blooski, etc.: Ha no. Stick my dick in stupid twice, shame on me.

masto: Run by a doofus who thinks corpo scum are his friends & the "charity" is not ownership.

Well, what the fuck now‽ I gotta move my blog off to something safe. Just dhtml in Apache again? Go back to Gopher? I dunno.

What's wrong with all those micro-blogging plattforms that were once good to great and now are either gone or so complicated in managing accounts that simplicity is missing and therefore it's a chore to use them?

After many years I tried to befriend #tumblr again and what can I say? The management of my account went totally wrong! I have now another account which I didn't want but was built by TUMBLR accidently because I can't log into my account I started on my iPhone. (1/4)

🇬🇧 During the course of transcribing Legion's dialogue from #MassEffect2, I may actually have solved a mystery I've been puzzling over for a long time: the flashing of Legion's small headlights.
Because between the various versions of ME, the essential question is literally: to flash or not to flash?

🇩🇪 Während ich Legions Dialoge aus #MassEffect 2 transkribiert habe, habe ich möglicherweise ein Mysterium gelöst, über das ich schon lange Zeit gerätselt habe: das Blinken von Legions kleinen Kopflichtern.
Denn bei den verschiedenen Versionen von ME lautet die essenzielle Frage buchstäblich: blinken oder nicht blinken?

Tumblr“To flash or not to flash” - Legion’s headlights in various versions of ME2I can’t believe it - guys, I may have finally solved the big mystery I’ve been puzzling over ever since I got into Mass Effect: the flashing of Legion’s headlights. You may remember that two years...
