One of the reasons I feel so comfortable using Tumblr over other social media is because this site is clearly too incompetent to be evil.
The basic business model of a social network is to harvest commercially valuable personal data and sell it, most famously via targeted ads. Anyone visiting my blog can clearly see that I am a queer furry who’s into video games and art. And yet I am only served ads for funeral homes, Bible story DVDs, and the current president’s reelection campaign (in 2018 for some reason)
Needless to say my click through rate has not been very good

I’m a social media manager for my day job and Tumblr is literally the only social media platform I can relax on anymore because it’s so incompetent when it comes to exploiting my personal data.

Actually, I’m reblogging this again. Because I just wanted to say this is a brilliant thing to potentially add to a story at some point and I want to tag this so I can find it later.
It was about noon and I looked out the window and saw that everything was red, like the sky was blood red, and that guy who played Malfoy in Harry Potter was just standing there, directly in front of my living room window and I was like, “Dude why are you here?” and he just shrugged . But then the police came and insisted I was going to be arrested because he was hanging out by the window and then when I went to ask why they wouldn’t just arrest HIM, it turned out I was a raccoon and THAT’S why I was being arrested.
Imagine being arrested for being a raccoon in front of Tom Felton
Trying to find the perfect name for a character, but you only have a vague idea of what you want, like “he feels like a 2-syllable kind of guy” or “It need a hard consonant at the end.”
