How peace looks like:

• reading in your garden
• sun shining on you
• cats purring besides you
• soft wind ruffling your hair

Also:

• listening to the sound of rain with a cup of tea between your palms
• leaves falling from the trees
• passing by a bakery and smelling fresh bread

• Sitting with your cats on the sofa playing candy crush

i’m realizing that i have so much time. i have time to grow my hair long. i have time to cut it all off and then to grow it back again. i have time to discover new hobbies and give up on things that no longer serve me. i have time to grow and change and travel and change my opinions and live differently than how i am now. i have so much time. take a deep breath and slow down

Tumblr is thinking of implementing an algorithm instead of a following feed to ‘help smaller creators get in front of people’ and I’m like that’s what putting tags on your posts is for?

I’ve curated my following feed over YEARS and I don’t want it all of a sudden junked up with shit I’m not interested in because of some fucking algorithm. If smaller creators want to be seen, then they should put stuff in the tags. Putting random people’s shit all over my feed is not going to make me want to engage with it.

The reason why so many people like this website is because you are in control of tailoring your experience on here. But what that requires is some work— you can’t just come on here and expect it to be immediately altered to you personally. That being said, an algorithm that just throws shit at you that it thinks you’ll like is not the answer. At the end of the day it’s going to actually make it harder for people to tailor their experience on here, which will make the site worse.

@staff @wip listen to the actual userbase including and ESPECIALLY the new users saying this isnt what we want or what drew them here, instead of your very much imaginary “potential userbase”
