big sigh.

((OOC –

So I’ll probably make a bigger post later. But just like the majority of folks here, I’m a tad salty about the fucking shitstorm that Tumblr is right now. In all honesty, more sad than salty.

I don’t have a lot of content right now, nothing compared to the years of work that some folks have put in to this community. A lot of their work is affected by these new guidelines. Things like masterposts and searching for old content is moot because of posts that have been flagged and are now hidden. I can’t imagine the type of headache this is for everyone who has invested so much time and energy into their page. It makes sense for people to want to jump ship, find a new platform and peace the fuck out. I don’t blame you.

I have met fantastic folks through here and my only hope is that either Tumblr gets their shit together, or something else surfaces that allows for fandoms to continue thriving like it has here, without scrutiny for the type of content that’s being posted.

I just think ya’ll are real cool and I’d like to stay friends.

I do have other social media platforms, though they aren’t exclusively HP-related (I was doing my best to keep things separated, but jokes on me). I’ll probably post them later down the road, but feel free to DM me if you want to follow me elsewhere before I make them public knowledge.

I’ll continue posting here in the meantime. It’s a pain in the ass, but the optimist in me is hoping that between now and the 17th, maybe Tumblr will realize that they fucked up and tweak all this new shit they’re trying to implement. 

Much love from me to you, xoxo))
