me: “The entrance of my hometown has a shrimp boat sitting in the main street. At Christmas theres a shrimper Santa and alligators pulling him instead of reindeer.”
others: “what?!”
me:
Cajun Santa, bring me the gumbo and buckets of mud bugs
friendly reminder that Tumblr Staff has all the resources and time to do elaborate trivial web coding for this website for April Fool’s Day annually but never did shit to remove cp in this website, ban nazis, and clean the porn bots. meanwhile, they are punishing its userbase by banning all adult-related content using a flawed “automated” system or machine to do it. as a result, non-nsfw blogs got terminated wrongfully, and even non-nsfw content are getting flagged and blocked. ladies and gentlemen, this is how staff doesn’t give a damn about its user-base and how this website is so broken
A directory of social media handles so people can find you on other sites. Once you fill out the form (none of the questions are required so in theory you can just hit “submit” without answering anything, but you can also just View Here) you will be able to access, but not edit, a spreadsheet of everyone’s handles across their social media.
As the disclaimer banner says, EVERYTHING you enter into this form is made public so you know, be careful. If you don’t want two of your handles linked…don’t put ‘em both in there.
I can’t think of a genuine reason this would be a bad idea but it’s a lot of data about people and their personal names that’s easily scrapeable so you know, if you can argue that this is a really bad idea for X reason, I’m willing to listen and delete as necessary.
Well this wasn’t how I wanted to spend my Monday.
I’ll still be posting here but I don’t know how long this site is going to last tbh, and I’d still like to be able to contact all the friends I’ve made here.
For five years, opponents of the Keystone XL pipeline and members of the Ponca Indian Tribe have sown native tribal corn in the path of the controversial project as a form of resistance.
Now they’ve planted another potential roadblock.
Last weekend, Art and Helen Tanderup, who farm north of Neligh, Nebraska, deeded the 1.6-acre plot of native corn to the native inhabitants of the land, the Ponca.
Selling the land to the Ponca means that TransCanada will have to negotiate with a new landowner, one that has special legal status as a tribe — a tribe that is opposed to the pipeline. The plot becomes the only tribally owned plot of land on the XL pipeline route in the U.S.
“We want to protect this land. We don’t want to see a pipeline go through,” said Larry Wright Jr., the chairman of the Ponca Tribe of Nebraska. “If this adds another layer (of opposition) to that issue, we’re happy to be part of that.”
Art Tanderup, who used to teach at Tekamah near the Omaha Indian Reservation, said the gift of the land was several years in the making. He said that providing another barrier to the pipeline was just one of the reasons.
Five years ago, his farm was the site of a “spirit camp” of Native Americans protesting the Keystone XL. During that gathering, he said he learned about how the Ponca consider their variety of corn sacred and how it had not been planted in Nebraska since Chief Standing Bear lead the Ponca on their march to Oklahoma.
before you geeks bring out the inevitable “horny people have no rights xd” jokes again id like to remind you that there are sex workers on this site that either partly or fully rely on this site for income and theres literally nothing about this thats good or helpful
like fucking clockwork
“find other sites to be horny on” is pretty rich when sex workers were specifically targeted by congress and law enforcement under the guise of helping them (in SESTA), and in the seven months since they have been banned from almost all the sites that they provided services and content on.
SESTA and its consequences demonstrate the reassertion of (straight, white, cis, anti-lgbt) Puritan mores and sexual principles to our society, and if you’re cheering that on you need to stop and think for a while about what it is you want (and yes this is specifically do with SESTA, it’s not hard to suss out the through-line between SESTA, Apple deleting Tumblr from the app store per new regulations, and Tumblr deciding to kill adult content.
