TopicTumblr starts letting bloggers charge a subscription

Like all things tumblr, this is a train wreck before it's even left the station.

I only know of a couple blogs that could support themselves purely on tumblr support, and one of them has already said they won't because

A) Everyone on the site is broke as shit.
B) Everything on the site is broke as shit. Why would you willingly give your banking information to a site that frequently deletes blogs without warning and has the most broken search feature I've ever seen?
C) 30% for mobile users is highway robbery. Patreon takes 15% max and even has Tumblr integration.



Also, a user going by Kaijuno opted into the beta to try and pay off medical bills. The result was that a post of theirs--not anyone else who opted into the beta--was automatically put behind the pay wall, without notifying them or their userbase. Here's what the post looks like now:



This of course pissed off everyone and led to death threats being hurled at Kaijuno, at which point tumblr made a new announcement decrying harassment without actually addressing why any of this happened.



I would like to point out that the initial announcement about Post+ was not made on the official staff account, but a less popular side account. This means the announcement gained less attention than Kaijuno's post, effectively drawing all the negative attention away from staff.

This brings me to another point,



It will be easy to stalk and harass someone with this. There are Nazis/terfs/etc who will gladly pay a few dollars just to abuse someone who needs to go directly to staff for help.

There's a lot to be said about how shit this decision is. I get that tumblr has always been a huge money sink but this is maybe the worst way to go about it.

This topic is convincing me to finally quit CVS. I know it's always been bad and that the pandemic+vaccine rollout has made working there the bottom rung of the hell that is customer service. A tech almost broke down over the phone because I almost broke down over my depression med taking a week to refill. It's not right and I want to support some other pharmacy instead.

Are there any recommendations for major chains or should I look into local businesses?

It does the SNES Godzilla thing where it starts really strong and then writes the person playing the game into the story and it's suddenly a lot less interesting. I actually am kinder to Godzilla because it's more upfront about it, didn't have an erratic update schedule, and didn't write a real life tragedy into the story.

Basically, after getting warned for 3 days for heavily downplaying 1/6, he made a topic sarcastically claiming that he learned his lesson and that 9/11 and 1/6 were equally bad in the most disingenuous way possible.

You saw post 1 and you knew his account wasn't going to be active the next day.

It's a little funny to imagine him boiling about it for three days before he could post again. I wonder what a week or more of boiling will do to him.

I really enjoyed him and diabetus growing up, but it's hard for me to even go back to some of those old videos now. I wouldn't say they're unfunny, but other channels, even ones also from SA, have just done what they did far better.

P.S. Chip and Ironicus have still got it.

Hes the color Blue-Eyes White. People with blue eyes have a light whitish blue color to them.

I always just figured the original artwork was meant to be a white dragon with a blue-ish hue, and the anime just fucked up the coloring, but this makes more sense.

Better comparison to The Offspring would be like Zebrahead who I think does what The Offspring does significantly better.
