I posted a digital altar for Zeus as a test video for a collaborative project. Thoughts? If liked, I plan to make one for many of the gods to allow people to use their phones as digital altars when needing to be discreet. Posted on Tumblr as a test run.
🇩🇪 In #MonsterHunterTri steht heute unsere erste dringende Quest an: ein paar Ludrothe zu erlegen! Nachdem wir unseren Job erledigt haben, findet sich außerdem ein Besucher aus Fernost in Moga ein.
🇬🇧 Today, our first urgent quest in #MonsterHunter Tri awaits us: slaying a few Ludroth! After we fulfilled our job, a visitor from the Far East also arrives in Moga.
🇩🇪 Die letzte Stufe 1-Quest in #MonsterHunterTri ist ein wahrhaft königliches Festessen - mit dem Lagiacrus als Ehrengast! Bleibt nur die Frage, was auf dem Menü steht: Monsterinnereien oder wir?
🇬🇧 The final level 1 quest in #MonsterHunter Tri is truly a royal feast - with the Lagiacrus as a guest of honor! The only question is what's on the menu: monster guts or us?
🇩🇪 Weiter geht's mit den Stufe 1-Quests in #MonsterHunterTri! Wir gehen für ein paar rote Korallensteine auf Tauchstation und machen einen Angelausflug an die Küste, um Goldenfische zu fangen.
🇬🇧 We continue with the level 1 quests in #MonsterHunter Tri! We go diving after some red coral stones and go on a fishing trip to the coast to catch Goldenfish.
🇩🇪 Wir starten durch mit den Stufe 1-Quests in #MonsterHunterTri! Heute geht es ein paar Jaggi(a) an den Kragen und wir beschaffen Zutaten für Kelbi-Horn Medizin.
🇬🇧 We're starting out with the level 1 quests in #MonsterHunter Tri! Today we go after some Jaggi(a) and fetch ingredients for Kelbi horn medicine.
This, right here, is why I do what I do. We [trans people] will never be safe on corporate social media. Even a platform that advertises itself as "the queerest place on the internet" will happily nuke our accounts with no warning or chance to appeal.
And so I push through the stress and burnout to continue one of the hardest things I've ever done. Running this instance is a daily struggle, but it's worth it. We've suffered enough under hostile moderation and apathetic corporations, so now it's time to ensure our own protection.
Transfem.social is and always will be a safe space for marginalized people. That's my promise, and that's the goal that keeps me pressing forward.

🇩🇪 Es ist der 15. April - der Tag, an dem ich vor einem Jahr meinen Seelenverwandten aus #MassEffect getroffen habe: Legion. Eine kleine Geschichte unserer Beziehung, und wie #Liebe zu fiktiven Charakteren überhaupt funktioniert.
🇬🇧 It's April 15th - the day when, one year ago, I met my soulmate from Mass Effect: Legion. A little history of our relationship, and how being in #love with fictional characters works, anyway.
The number of daily active users on Bluesky went from a peak of 550k during its public opening to a recent low of 168k, behind its October 2023 numbers when it was an invite-only social media (a peak of 183k)
Why am I telling you this? Because I think the only way for them to have a future is to join the Fediverse, their UI and customization of algorithms would appeal to some
PS: I think Tumblr, BeReal and Lemon8 should join too
🇩🇪 Frohe Ostern euch allen! In #MonsterHunterTri gehen wir allerdings nicht auf die Suche nach Ostereiern, sondern nach Erz, und nebenbei machen wir einen entspannten Schwimmausflug bei Vollmondnacht.
🇬🇧 Happy Easter to all of you! In #MonsterHunter Tri, however, we aren't looking for Easter eggs, but for ore, and while we're at it, we also go for a relaxing swim on a full moon night.
🇩🇪 Es geht weiter mit #MonsterHunterTri! Diesmal machen wir uns mit dem Tag-Nacht-Rhythmus vertraut und begeben uns auf nächtliche Jaggi-Jagd im Moga-Wald.
🇬🇧 My #MonsterHunter Tri playthrough continues! This time, we familiarize ourselves with the day-night cycles and go nighttime Jaggi hunting in the Moga Forest.
…I noticed that they gave shoutouts to #Mastodon & #WordPress (#Tumblr was strangely ignored) as well as credited #Misskey for their quote implementation (even #Firefish received an honorable mention).
I do wonder how many Threads users have activated ActivityPub on their account‽
This is a post I probably should have made weeks ago but, well, life has refused to let me remain uninvolved the past few months, sadly.
With the influx of new users to the Fediverse from #Tumblr, I wanted to be a good neighbor and, at least, welcome you. When Tumblr had, first, been bought my #Automattic and there was a sort of revival going on over there, I was preoccupied with how to get attention for my alternative but, nevertheless, hopeful it might follow WordPress and become open-source.
if you'd asked me about making a tumblr-specific thing similar to the anti-meta fedi pact BEFORE the car hammer incident
i'd say i personally agree with it but that finding support across the wider fediverse might be a good deal harder than a pact against meta
because even though tumblr allows some of the same horrible shit, the vibes of the site are very different and lotsa peeps have good memories of it
but now... i could totally see myself doing FediPact 2 if tumblr ever announced they were gonna federate. public perception has shifted enough that it'd be doable
My feed's been full of pornocalypse lately, so I went back to look at Matt Mullenweg's "Why "Go Nuts, Show Nuts" Doesn’t Work in 2022" that he wrote to explain why the ballyhooed Tumblr porn "unbanning" was a search-invisibility nothingburger.
Well, guess what you see if you follow that link now? "You'll need to be on Tumblr to see this...."
Fuck that. It needs to be on the open web for research and commentary:
Unsure if anyone is aware, but #tumblr is transphobic now. (The irony)
So here is the complaints page for the nyc human rights devision. Yknow, the division that told Tumblr their nsfw ban was transphobic? That human rights division.
I will post a template of sorts i found on tumblr in a reply
Talking about #retrocomputing things... Here a program I wrote on September 2015 with my first computer. That Commodore Vic-20 is now 40 years old, has 3.5 Kb of RAM and last time I tried it was still working :-) #creativeCoding#tumblr#petscii#basic#asciiart#8bit
goblin-social (www.tumblr.com)
kind of interested in this tumblr-like platform being made for the fediverse. i hope it works out.
