Weren't you one of the people saying you wanted a messaging system in place before? Or is it just cause the one they added sucks?

Actually no. That post where I compared tumblr staff to a shitty genie I meant we as tumblr not we as in me. if I want to talk to someone on tumblr, I will do i through skype. ANd there was no need to remove the replys feature because now i don’t know what people think of my posts.

Just a heads up, messaging me with the new tumblr messaging will result in you being blocked. No questions asked.

staff:
“ You asked for it. Here it comes. Messaging. Real, threaded, instant messaging. It’s in the latest Android and iOS apps, and on the web.
Yep: Now you can talk to a Tumblr.
This is a big launch, and it’s going to take a few weeks to get it out...

This is a big launch, and it’s going to take a few weeks to get it out to everyone (we need to make sure our servers can handle the weight of your discourse). If you don’t have it now, you’ll have it soon.

Q: So, how can I tell if I have messaging?

A: Great question. If you see this smiley balloon hanging out on your screen…

…you’ve got messaging. If you message someone, they’ll get messaging. Eventually, messaging will cover the earth.

Q: What if I have other Q’s? What if I have A’s, even?

A: Well dang, we’d love to hear any feedback or questions you have about this thing. What works well? What kind of doesn’t? What kind of features do you want to see? Those are some of the Q’s that could use your A’s. Our support team is listening (and they’ve already put together an FAQ).  

Notice how staff is like “any questions? ask support!” and yet support doesn’t even have an ask box open.

The FAQs dont’ answer my main question thought, it answers the exact opposite. I don’t wanna know how to turn it on, I wanna know if it can be turned off.

oh god it’s bad enough that I can’t turn off fan letters now I’m going to have to deal with THIS shit?

Tumblr staff is like a genie. People ask for things but then we’re going to immediately regret it.

WHAT TUMBLR USER DO YOU SHIP ME WITH

I’m totally curious now

why can people not understand modern christmas isn't even christmas! i think it's more about the spirit of giving!

Christmas was originally a pagan celebration to celebrate the winter solstice and the up and coming year before Christianity hijacked it

The fact that your boyfriend uses gifs and calls people idiots also negates his maturity

Getting a last word in edge-wise?

“Yeah, well, he does this so, he’s that.”

Grow up and read what I had to say.

I’m disgusted on how childish you’re being about this.

EVERY SINGLE EXAMPLE of my “immaturity” is actually how your boyfriend talked to and treated me. I tried to be respectful, but upon being ridiculed by everything I said, I can’t help but bite back at jitters’ oversensitive responses

Then you’re no better.

So then you admit that he can’t be reasonable in his responses

The only way he becomes reasonable is if people just cow tow to everything he says and believes. Anything less than that he brands them as insensitive and hateful.

You know he’s more than willing to have a calm, objective debate if you’re not coming in making jabs, right?

Don’t base his entire thinking process on the extreme instances where he lost his cool with people saying things like “obviously you don’t care about [x].”

At this point, kaiuchiha isn’t even trying to defend himself, he’s just trying to insult jitters. Pretty sure that’s a sign of a bad argument

The “War on Christmas” has apparently hit Starbucks

A number of Christians are speaking out against the minimalist design of the coffee giant’s holiday-themed cups, arguing that it oppresses and denies the Christian faith. To fight back, Joshua Feuerstein is encouraging people to buy drinks and trick Starbucks into saying “Merry Christmas.” A Starbucks rep responded with a welcoming message of inclusivity.

IT’S A RED AND FUCKING GREEN CUP HOW IS THAT INCLUSIVE.

You all showed them. Yep. They will most definately learned their lesson after you bought a lot from them. Yeah, giving them your money is gonna make them change their mind.

Also, that last one is fantastic.
