basically emotional manipulation and guilt tripping as social justice praxis is pointless and not sustainable imo. it doesn’t promote real growth or solidarity if the entire basis of your activism is stemming from guilt or fear 

#like it just ends with kids reblogging things they dont really understand #and not daring to ask for further information references or even just it in easier to digest terms

 #so then you get loads of well intentioned and paranoid kids shouting at each other using buzzwords they dont really get

 #while abusive people can easily slip in and co-opt the system for their own ends #slams fist on table #transparency and forgiveness in sj circles#slams fists over and over

Ah Nevermind.

Apparently when you turn on the option to prevent logged off users from viewing your blog, it prevents you from seeing it too 😐

the amount of shits tumblr doesnt give about its artist base is so enfuriating like. come on guys. the most common things you see nowadays are like

• an artist whos gaining popularity recently gets some callout post for some problematic thing they did like two years ago
• an artist slips up a few times and next thing you know theres multiple blogs entirely revolving around talking shit on them and/or gathering every single solitary thing theyve slightly done wrong in their entire existence online
• putting “i dont ship this but…” or “this would be better with…” in the tags and/or comments section of fanart
• reposting without permission
• using without sourcing
• when they do something morally wrong they’re stamped with the PROBLEMATIC label and thrown under the bus faster than they can even apologize or realize what they did wrong
• being called selfish/vain when they ask people not to use their art
• being told fanart isnt “real art”
• more stuff i cant even remember right now

like its gotta stop im so sick and tired of it. these people dont have to be posting art on here but theyre choosing to and the amount of artists on tumblr is dwindling out of fear of being deemed as a bad person. there’s a difference between genuinely problematic people and artists who make mistakes and the line between them has got to start being recognized

It’s just occurred to me that there will be a time in this world where literally everywhere but my timezone and i think one other will be in 2016.

Tell me…. When you’re in the future….
