WHY YOU NEED TO STOP FLAILING ABOUT THE POTENTIAL YAHOO PURCHASE OF TUMBLR
- The deal isn’t final
- OR EVEN STARTED YET
- It could still fall through
- Yahoo might simply invest in tumblr and have tumblr still technically be independent
- There can be last minute offers from other companies. tumblr was in talks with Microsoft and Facebook, for example
- These companies play with billions of dollars; they’re not going to make a choice as carelessly as you decide on what pants to wear
- You don’t have to worry about Yahoo marketing to and attracting “a bunch of casual bloggers” BECAUSE THAT’S WHAT TUMBLR ALREADY IS, YOU PRETENTIOUS ASS
- If it goes through, we might actually get a working message system, search system and abuse support
- David Karp does not care about your Dr. Who reaction image and threatening to move your Hannibal RP blog because we all know you’ll stay
yahoo wants to buy tumblr so i’m making an early prediction as to what would happen if this were to take place
so this is their plan after losing geocities.
Flickr motherfuckers, do you use it?
I Read a Headline and I am Afraid of Internet Companies that Aren’t Google: a musical by tumblrAnd the rage over Geocities makes me laugh. Free hosting platforms are and always have been horrible, and paid Geocities accounts all got migrated to significantly better hosting long before the closure.
Geocities was pretty shit even before they were bought out.
But then again, most people on tumblr are too young to know what geocities was like back in the 90s.
I’ve seen some Tumblr themes.
I think they’ve internalized Geocities so much that they actually think it was in good taste.
There’s only one tumblr that should be using the 90s geocities aesthetics.
And that’s http://frickyeah1990s.tumblr.com/

SEXISM IS OVER
i feel uncomfortable seeing this o-o
Good. Tell your buddies this is what oversexualization is and why it’s a problem when it happens to female characters.
There is a tribe in Africa where the birth date of a child is counted not from when they were born, nor from when they are conceived but from the day that the child was a thought in its mother’s mind. And when a woman decides that she will have a child, she goes off and sits under a tree, by herself, and she listens until she can hear the song of the child that wants to come. And after she’s heard the song of this child, she comes back to the man who will be the child’s father, and teaches it to him. And then, when they make love to physically conceive the child, some of that time they sing the song of the child, as a way to invite it.
And then, when the mother is pregnant, the mother teaches that child’s song to the midwives and the old women of the village, so that when the child is born, the old women and the people around her sing the child’s song to welcome it. And then, as the child grows up, the other villagers are taught the child’s song. If the child falls, or hurts its knee, someone picks it up and sings its song to it. Or perhaps the child does something wonderful, or goes through the rites of puberty, then as a way of honoring this person, the people of the village sing his or her song.
In the African tribe there is one other occasion upon which the villagers sing to the child. If at any time during his or her life, the person commits a crime or aberrant social act, the individual is called to the center of the village and the people in the community form a circle around them. Then they sing their song to them.
The tribe recognizes that the correction for antisocial behavior is not punishment; it is love and the remembrance of identity. When you recognize your own song, you have no desire or need to do anything that would hurt another.
And it goes this way through their life. In marriage, the songs are sung, together. And finally, when this child is lying in bed, ready to die, all the villagers know his or her song, and they sing—for the last time—the song to that person.
You may not have grown up in an African tribe that sings your song to you at crucial life transitions, but life is always reminding you when you are in tune with yourself and when you are not. When you feel good, what you are doing matches your song, and when you feel awful, it doesn’t. In the end, we shall all recognize our song and sing it well. You may feel a little warbly at the moment, but so have all the great singers. Just keep singing and you’ll find your way home.This is the most amazing thing I have ever read.
THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL IM ALMOST TEARING UP
Reblog for eternity.
I am not a good person.

YOU GUYS THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE A SECRET
Whoops cat’s out of the bag.
“When Beethoven passed away, he was buried in a churchyard. A couple days later, the town drunk was walking through the cemetery and heard some strange noise coming from the area where Beethoven was buried. Terrified, the drunk ran and got the priest to come and listen to it. The priest bent close to the grave and heard some faint, unrecognizable music coming from the grave. Frightened, the priest ran and got the town magistrate. When the magistrate arrived, he bent his ear to the grave, listened for a moment, and said, “Ah, yes, that’s Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony, being played backwards.” He listened a while longer, and said, “There’s the Eighth Symphony, and it’s backwards, too. Most puzzling.” So the magistrate kept listening; “There’s the Seventh… the Sixth… the Fifth…” Suddenly the realization of what was happening dawned on the magistrate; he stood up and announced to the crowd that had gathered in the cemetery, “My fellow citizens, there’s nothing to worry about. It’s just Beethoven decomposing.”
oh my god
BEST JOKE.
THIS JOKE SHALL BE TOLD FOREVER
Unfortunately, this is a real restaurant and that is a real response. Their page was not hacked and thus trolled (that I know of). The owners are just really crazy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6LY7TJ16pg
holy FUCK watch that video
i just watched that video (and the part 2). unbelievable
I’m like 7 minutes in and jesus christ
HOLY BALLS, I SAW THE FULL EPISODE ABOUT THIS TRAIN-WRECK OF A RESTAURANT.
GORDON RAMSAY LEFT THE RESTAURANT WITHOUT CHANGING IT BECAUSE HE SAID HE WAS SCARED AND DISTURBED BY THE PLACE AND IT’S OWNERS.
LET ME REPEAT THAT.
GORDON FUCKING RAMSAY SAID HE WAS SCARED AND DISTURBED BY HOW VICIOUS THE OWNERS ARE.
*chokes on water*
HOLY SHIT
god fucking damn
when ramsay tears into the owner for stealing the tips from the waitress omg
Holy fuck.
Normally I can watch this show (hell, normally it’s like crack that I can’t quit) but I’m having trouble making it past the THREE MINUTE MARK. I am absolutely astounded. Ramsay hasn’t even shown up yet and I’m already feeling bad for him.
Watched this earlier today thanks to a previous tumblr reblog post. And yeah. The owners are a special level of batshit insane.
Then there’s the dinner shift with Ramsay around. It is just… man. I feel so bad for those servers seriously.
