Please don’t fucking log off tumblr on the 17th as a protest. All that’s going to do is give tumblr more reason to shut this place down because of revenue loss.

This is blatantly untrue

Companies do not experience one day of revenue loss and pull the plug, destroying years of work and firing dozens if not hundreds of employees.

Companies which experience loss in revenue and consumer interest make investments and changes in order to ragain their users/customers. That’s why organized protests and boycotts WORK. Tumblr will NOT go down after one bad day or week, but they might be willing to listen to its userbase if we put up an organized protest. (If you don’t believe me, think about how long sites like MySpace and Google+ hang around with fractions of their previous user base, often for years.)

Yahoo paid over one billion dollars for Tumblr, and the website will not go offline because of a one-day event, so in conclusion,

DO log off on December 17th to show Tumblr that you disapprove of its recent content ban and clumsy execution of censorship.

Please reblog this version of the post to stop the spread of misinformation.

Actually killing Tumblr over this is… probably a good idea. 

Because it sends the message of “Ban nsfw and censor and lose your business”. And I think that’s a message that needs to be sent.

Same reason I’m looking to switch away from Apple with my next generation of computer/tablet/phone.

But for real, though, I’d like to point out that the Dirty Pair is the only anime series I’ve seen where the heroines mock the shit out of a dude who’s mad because his son is marrying a badass transwoman who’s not only gorgeous but a war veteran

And they’re like ‘dude what’s wrong with you trans people are the norm now and are awesome’

This was in 1985!  The receipts:

Kei and Yuri ain’t having your shit old man!  And good for groomsboy sticking up for his lady, who had to literally STORM the wedding his dad was trying to force him into.

Fuck that guy.  Yay Dirty Pair.
