Hey I have an idea

A system where “your rent should be 1/3 of your income” no longer means “we don’t rent to poor people” and instead means “show us your income and your rent will be a third of that.”

Oh is that a chorus of weeping landlords I hear? Poor babies. Delicious as the sound is, may I propose a solution to your vewy sad pwobwem of “oh noes I hoarded all the houses and now I can’t get rich about it”

Y’all fuckers are probably good at lobbying, yeah? Pretty influential? Got a connection or ten up your sweaty little sleeve? Drive up wages. Do it. Cowards. Raise the minimum wage? Again? Higher? Positions start at $100/hour!! Bread still costs $3-5ish or whatever and sure your rent is like $4k/month but your slimy landlord makes $4000 from you now instead of like $1500 or whatever a 1br apartment goes for now (that’s pretty typical here but ymmv). Everybody wins

Wait, what’s that? Impossible to run a business if wages far exceed profits? Fair, yeah, sure. Hey quick question has anyone ever heard of universal basic income? Just throwing that out there

But maybe maaaayyyybe there’s a simpler solution I suppose

Abolish landlords???

Did I hear someone say abolish landlords?

Oh okay okay well maybe we can meet in the middle. Let’s say like… you’re allowed to own one rental property. Little extra cash on the side, right? Sure. Of course you’re gonna be held accountable and responsible for maintenance and building codes and utility services and… oh? That’s too much to deal with? Mmm too bad. Anyway okay that weeded out most people so we’re left with… what’s that? A society where everyone has a safe and affordable home accessible to them and we’re all generally happier and more functional as a society because we’re not stressed out of our buttholes from living under a constant threat of sudden financial ruin? Neato :)

Tumblr reblog chains are in danger.

It seems that the staff is actually going to go forward with their decision to remove reblog chains, where reblogs will basically work like regular comments on other websites.

This doesn't just make the site completely unusable, it removes the soul of the community that has managed to build up here over the years, and that I'm so happy to have recently joined.

It makes impossible the creation of great posts where many people build up a single thing, until it is a gem of expressed human creativity.

There will be no more world heritage posts, no more messing around with your mutuals, no posts worth remembering.

There will be no more Tumblr, and the Tikblr or TumbTube or whatever monstrosity is born from its corpse will soon die, as is probably the best. And then there will never be another place like this on the internet, no place anymore to run to, no more fun, no more community.

I recommend a simple course of action. When these changes get imposed upon us, stop using Tumblr. Get your mutuals' discords, your favourite artists' websites, and leave. If the Tumblr we have once known returns, we well too. If not, better let it die quickly than suffer a long and painful decline.

I beg you to reblog this, for the more people see it, the higher chanses are for this to work.

And add something, so we can show them what Tumblr is really for.

I want auroras and sad prose

I want to watch wisteria grow right over my bare feet

'Cause I haven't moved in years

Except for me. I wanna see it. My toxic trait is I firmly believe that I can befriend wild animals and make them feel loved

less “if you see a man and woman together at pride be nice! they could be bi/pan/trans/ace/aro” and more “stop gendering strangers to harass them anywhere, but especially at pride holy shit”
