………….we knew this shit was an issue that staff has been ignoring for ages but it finally came to bite them in the ass

hey general psa that in the notes theres a bunch of really stupid misinformation bullshit (as i should have expected) abt how this is a fandom thing, about fanart/fanfiction, and i would just like to clarify for as many people as i can that this is not a fandom thing at all, it is an issue targeting IRL minors. 

minors have been running “sex work” blogs, selling private snapchats, et cetera, using tumblr as their platforms. there are also adult rings of CP (photographs and videos of IRL minors) distributors on tumblr that have managed to slip by filters. this is the issue being looked into by law enforcement, this is the issue being pursued by tumblr, and it is the reason the purge is being done so hastily and messily (protection of minors being sexually trafficked is generally more important than avoiding Jane Doe #193′s doctor who blog being nuked by accident). reporting fandom blogs to tumblr for written content and fanart is only going to confuse the matter further and make it more likely that minors will be put at greater risk (if fake reports come in massive quantities and drown out the real reports or make alarm fatigue likely).

please don’t spread misinformation y’all!

game theory:

which pokemon could i most easily kill with my bare hands?

current first place: Mr. Mime.

Not because Mr. Mime is particularly weak, but because if I ever saw a Mr. Mime in real life I would be filled with the exact power needed to kill a Mr. Mime

frankly a corpse of a mr mime freaks me out more than a living mr mime so idk how to feel

Why would you add such an accurate and true but absolutely terrifying point to this.

disaster-lucretia:

you know how its like a “creepy necromancer thing” to have tomes bound in human skin

barry is human and has skin, and has ostensibly had the opportunity during the stolen century where he dies and his lich form takes over, but he still has his body on hand

what im saying is that barry fucking bluejeans absolutely has at least one necromancy tome bound in his own skin, because like hell that’s going to waste when there’s science to do

Some people: Pokemon have to have good lore and an interesting naming scheme for me to like them. They can’t just be some stupid, slapped together design! It has to be well thought out and deep.

My dumb ass: I love Whiscash because it’s a catfish with whiskers. That’s why its called Whiscash.
It also has a w on his forehead. The w stands for Whiscash 🙂
