Tomorrow is April Fool’s so this is just a reminder that I’m not going to post any screamers or anything like that or play with anyone’s emotions by faking death or fake asking someone out. The worst I’m going to do is Rickroll people or not put enough ice in a drink
i slave away over a hot blog frying up the tastiest shit posts this side of the millennium and this is the thanks i get
i thought this was a post from shitpostgenerator omg
i work hard to produce fresh, healthy, homecooked shit posts and you compare me to that capitalist shit post giant whos shit posts are all full of preservatives and hormones
Well excuuuuuuse me princess but not everyone is a billionaire who can afford healthy organic shitposts. most of us have to use shitty capitalist shitposts because we can’t afford better
where everyone from tumblr can meet up with other tumblr people and we can have fandom booths for each fandom big or little and its free! please?
How quickly they forget.
We must not let history repeat
wat what does this mean lol
History lesson! Yes, a tumblr convention did happen, back in mid-2013, and it was called Dashcon. Basically, tumblr in a convention, right? Sounds cool. People thought it would be really promising since there was going to be a Q/A panel from the creators of Welcome to Night Vale! But, following the convention’s start, the panel was cancelled. Everything went downhill from there. Barely anyone attended, except some cosplayers(namely homestuck fans, we’re here for everything) and other folks.
That ball pit up there? That thing quickly started a rumor that the staff would give an ‘extra hour in the ball pit’ to make up for missing the Welcome To Night Vale Q/A. This is what started the ‘extra hour in the ball pit’ meme.
People payed 17,000 bucks for this con. Literally nothing happened.
And so, everyone here who was on tumblr circa 2013 knows and wants to prevent it to happen again.
And some things that should not have been
forgotten were lost. History became legend. Legend became myth. And for
two and a half thousand years, the the ball pit passed out of all knowledge.
i actually can’t believe that required a history lesson. that some people actually don’t just instantly know what that godforsaken pit represents. we need to protect those people
It’s like a cautionary tale. Like some greek myth with a bad ending. It’s right up there with orpheus and eurydice
