The Fetcher of Nowhere and Nothing (4,307 words) by FieldofRoses2992

Allen Impala is called to a meeting with one of his Higher Ups after he failed to meet quota and provide them with stolen goods due to his current status as a patient at Middlesea. All he can hope is that it all goes well.

Hellooooo! Finally managed to finish this little RD Allen thing I was working on cuz the concept would not leave my head lolol. It doesn't have much to do with Rhythm Doctor so I tagged it as an original work on Ao3, but since it has to do with Allen specifically in the RD universe, I'll tag it as such here. Hope you enjoy, even if it isn't something I usually write. As usual, be mindful of the warnings!

Love Wins!

Could we crash tumblr if we all posted the word "crash" on the 1st of april 2022, 12:35 EST?

tbh i dont think the wii u or 3ds eshops closing is like. that big of a deal. i dont know anyone who has used the 3ds eshop regularly in the last 4 years. i bought the pokebank subscription 2 years ago. people do care enough to preserve these games and there are emulators out there. there ARE existing roms of eshop exclusives. please just learn how to pirate games

PSA regarding tumblr’s latest Censorship Nightmare

For those of you who haven’t seen this announcement, tumblr recently made some changes to the iOS version of the app, purportedly to comply with Apple’s content guidelines. These changes took effect on Dec 21, starting in version 22.5.1 of the iOS app. As some of you may recall, Apple’s strict guidelines were the driving force for the infamous Great Purge of 2018, which coincidentally also happened around this time of year, but it seems banning all of the female-presenting nipples wasn’t good enough for Apple.

Below is a summary of the important changes. Note that these changes technically ONLY affect those using the iOS app. If you’re accessing tumblr through a different app or operating system (Google Chrome, Android app, etc) it won’t affect you directly but it will affect your followers who use iOS so you should definitely be aware of it.

The list of banned tags has been expanded. As before, there’s no way to know which words or phrases have been banned until you try searching for them, in which case you’ll either get no search results or the following message: “This content has been hidden because of potentially suggestive or explicit content.” You may think this doesn’t concern you if you don’t post explicit material, but do not make the mistake of expecting the banned tags to be logical or reasonable. I’ve already encountered multiple completely innocuous posts (random fandom gifsets) that seem to be hidden on iOS for no discernible reason.

Blogs that have been flagged as explicit can no longer be viewed. Previously, flagged blogs just had their posts hidden from searches, but if you knew the username you could still visit it after clicking through a warning about sensitive content. Now you can’t access it at all.

Likes and reblogs from blogs that have been flagged will no longer show up in your notes. This one won’t affect most people’s user experience as much as the others, but it does mean you may be missing notes. It’s unclear if likes and reblogs from flagged blogs will still count towards the overall note total (and only be missing from the activity feed and note viewer) but I suspect that’s the case.

THE BIG ONE: ANY POST TAGGED WITH A BANNED TAG WILL NO LONGER SHOW UP ON YOUR DASHBOARD. Previously, if you tagged a post with a banned word or phrase (even if the words were used inside another tag), that post would not show up in searches, but your followers would still be able to see it on their dashboard. Now those posts are hidden from your own followers as well. This includes both original posts and reblogs. And if that wasn’t bad enough, here’s the real kicker: even if you don’t tag something with one of the banned words, if the OP used a banned tag, any reblogs of that post will not show up on anyone’s dashboard (on the iOS app). The only saving grace here, and I hate to even call it that, is that the blocked posts are still visible if you visit a blog directly or if you have post notifications turned on.

As usual, tumblr was extremely unclear and evasive about all of this in their official announcement. Not surprising, of course, since if more people were aware of these new draconian tactics I can’t imagine there wouldn’t be more of an uproar about it. Tumblr claims that these changes are somewhat temporary and that they are currently working on something that will allow for a less restricted iOS experience, but they refuse to say what that something is and when it will be implemented. And let’s just say, considering their track record, I’m not hopeful.

All of this is horrible and infuriating for many reasons, but the worst part is how insanely counterproductive it is to creating the “safe” environment tumblr (or more specifically Apple) supposedly wants.

Tags have always been used for both blog organization and filtering purposes. Tagging posts with triggers and content warnings is a common practice that gives users the ability to filter out content they may find upsetting or just don’t don’t want to see for whatever reason. By choosing to ban a bunch of unlisted “sensitive content” tags, all they’re doing is encouraging people who want to share that kind of content to come up with alternative less well-known tags or simply not tag that content at all anymore if they want it to show up on their follower’s dashboards, thereby making it more likely for someone to encounter it when they didn’t want to.

So really, with all of the alleged concern for safety and “protecting the children,” all they’ve done is make tumblr less safe for everyone. Typical.

Well, looks like that egg will be in my inventory forever then.

Wonder how far I'll have to walk before it hatches...

:]

E g g

Goddamn it-

I've been duped!

I brought this on myself

She's going to French Fry his ass-

Saw a few things going around with what some interns may feel or do when having to put up with Richard Hughs and figured I may as well toss my hat into the ring with Marie's probable response to his... everything.

Don't worry Richard! This will only hurt a lot!

Omnomnom, Reddy Pie!

Y'all have no idea how much I think about Redacre and Cleff on a daily basis lolol

They're both weirdos, bizarre in their own ways with one perhaps seeming a lot more "normal" than the other, but they found each other and that's all that matters.

Little Miss Ethics Committee and Big Mister Reality Anchor, they mean the world to me in ways you wouldn't understand and I would love to talk about them more at some point :D
