Tumblr!

Ehh, I like tumblr to an extent, until people post really ranty post on their opinions, etc. I get its your blog, but sometimes I get annoyed when I follow a certain blog and it starts getting off the original purpose of it. I had a tumblr a while back, but forgot my account, I may make another one later when I have more time p:

tbh i feel like its some of u who make tumblr an annoying place...like @l lawliet wtf are u even saying...you want to start an immature flame war with people who, admittedly, whine too much and are, most of the time, entitled white folks who have no need to complain but do anyway? like, really? what are you going to gain?

to be honest, tumblr's obsession with being a furry or otherkin or some other crazy gender is getting out of hand, but if you'd rather not accept their self-made identity, then you should talk smack about them behind their back. its just plain immature and disrespectful. ive never sent an anon message, because i want people to know that im behind the words. tell it to their faces, if you want to whine on here about it.

respect their genders? its not like u have to deal with them in real life, and you dont have to deal with them online either. just click unfollow, its not that hard. use the right pronouns, and dont be a jerk.

most people on tumblr are white girls anyway and theyre ridiculously annoying. god.

The purpose of this thread is to post our opinions about Tumblr.
My opinion is my opinion. I'm not talking behind anyone's back and nor am I making Tumblr a bad place. I have never said I disrespected their genders or of the like. If they'd like to label themselves the way that they are, then they can. If they want to use xe and xim or xhe and xer pronouns then I will address them as such.
I simply stated that maybe some others go too far with trying to set themselves apart to the point where they isolate themselves, and they become almost unable to relate to.

Please do not be so brash and say it's "people like us that make tumblr an annoying place." Because honestly, tumblr is not a very annoying place. Like every website, it has it's darker areas.

This is extremely contradictory, by the way.​

Oh. My. God. This is the best post I've ever seen in my life. This is totally true.

I learned how to use it! I just started, you should all check it out!
 
I love Tumblr, but I agree it can get out of hand sometimes. I get that people care about things like that, but so do I, and I don't post about it most of the time. What I really can't stand is people saying "if you don't reblog about this you're an awful person" and things like that. Reblogging =/= caring. I try to keep my blog Animal Crossing, and if I do post not AC stuff, it's mostly funny stuff. I like to keep my blog a happy place for people; most people have stress in their own lives, they don't need to worry about the worlds problems too.

Also, I really can't stand the new update. I can't even reblog long posts anymore, it crashes.

Used to be obsessed with it, but all the misinformation and extremism really got to me. I still consider going back simply because I miss some of my friends, but eh. For the vast majority, I have other means of contacting them.

Anyways, I don't see why it's so hard for some people to respect others' preferred pronouns. Seriously, it helps them feel comfortable, and I don't see how it can possibly be detrimental to your own??
 
when people mention tumblr, i just remember the girl who tried to defend mayonnaise as a gender

look, all im saying is that the opinions are quite hypocritical and hurtful in some instances. Like there is a lot of straight white guy hate on there. like, too much.

im cool with lgbt, but a line must be drawn where things are taken too far.Furries are cool in my book, but otherkin aren't. they think they are part wolf/dragon/whatever. Its not healthy.

on a more positive note, i recently found the f*** yeah animal crossing blog. it mentioned tbt users, so i take it someone from here runs it?

The first paragraph can be summed up with "special snowflake syndrome". Personally, i try to fight it. Like seriously, why tf do they need special pronouns like xe xy xo xum or whatever?

I like the art and whatnot

BASICALLY YES

everybody on tumblr has that syndroome
 
Not gonna get involved in this debate about people on tumblr

buuuuut if you don't like the new update, just use xkit. xkit guy already released an update that removes parts of the update. also donate to xkit guy, he does all this work for free but receives a lot of hatemail
 
tumblr has its good and bad, but I try not to generalize. there really is a lot of grossness and rudeness, mostly from really young users. or maybe not? I dunno. I think it mostly is from younger people. thankfully, I manage to see very little since I'm choosy about who I follow. most of the real garbage doesn't make its way onto my dash.

I don't like the extremity of label pushing. I don't like how people make a huge deal of others' mistakes in life and such. I do like how most of my dash is just video game things and general silliness. I'm happy I've found a lot of good blogs to follow.

the update is just kinda weird. but I'll deal, without xkit. :y
 
Nintendo fandoms are pretty cool on tumblr. i follow F*** Yeah Animal crossing, FE confessions, and monado boy blogs

I dislike the bigotry and/or desire that a lot of people on that website have in order to become an individual. They strive to ridiculous lengths to give themselves label that set them apart from another, and more often than not if you're not some sort of ridiculous minority, you are shunned. I also dislike the lack of actual investigation people do when it comes to news that's posted on there. I usually do further research if I find some news on there.

However, there's a lot of things about Tumblr I like. The artists on there are amazing, the sense of humor is hilarious, the set up is nice, and there's gorgeous pictures on there. I find it can be an extremely nice escape if you filter out all the radicalists.​

My thoughts exactly. If you're not a minority, you're automatically a bad person. You have depression, but you're white? Too bad, you just want attention (actually something I've seen.) Not to mention that a lot of people on tumblr try to make it seem like a safe place, but if you say or do one wrong thing, you've got a whole community of people telling you to go die.

Thats why i have a strong dislike for the non nintendo stuff. As a straight white male, my opinion would matter less to them than the people of north korea t o Kim Jong Un
 
Well.. there really are a lot of annoying things/people on tumblr but idk I just stay away from all that to save myself hahah honestly I'm still occasionally logging in just for the nintendo/anime/art posts

especially the art posts though since there are a lot of talented people there who draw so damn well T__T

Looks like i really started a ruckus on here. lots of divided opinions.

This ruckus was more or so my doing. Don't worry about it. I take responsibility and truthfully do not care, as opinions are opinions, and I stand by mine. As long as we're all respectful in our viewpoints and follow the guidelines of this forum, I see nothing wrong with a healthy debate. After all, this is a thread about posting one's opinions on Tumblr.
So relax, friend. You're fine.​
