PLEASE HELP ME SIGNAL BOOST THIS. This happened at MY UNIVERSITY TONIGHT. The school and campus I attend every day. Someone/people have hung what are obviously meant to appear as nooses from trees on campus next to a hall. There has YET to be word from any administration or the local/state police. But whenever there’s a robbery, they send out emails and text alerts within an hour of the incident. This time there hasn’t even been a WARNING or a public announcement about this. This is obviously a hateful and racist act. I just can’t believe my university hasn’t felt the need to inform ANYONE of the investigation that is going on. This happened well over an hour ago.

staff You are recommending that I follow a nazi blog I blocked last night. Your site promotes anti-semitism to Jews. Your site shoves Nazi Swastikas in the faces of Jews. It’s bad enough that the Nazi blogs seem to be sprouting up like weeds on a site that claims to have an anti-hate policy, but to actively promote them to people who have taken the steps of blocking these blogs is beyond the pale. Clean this place up. It’s turning into Stormfront. I encourage everyone who sees this post, Jewish or otherwise, to reblog it. Tumblr has been ignoring the growth of Nazism on this site for too long. It needs to end.

If you’re a person of color who lives in douglasville /powder springs Georgia or around those places, and you see these trucks, PLEASE GO AS FAR AWAY FROM THEM AS POSSIBLE. Don’t slow down, don’t approach them, don’t even look their way. These are ARMED confederate flag supporters and they are violently racist (may even be nazis or linked to the KKK) This group is called “Protect the Flag” and is led by a man named “Bush”. A few days ago they crashed a black child’s birthday party, yelling slurs and threatening to “kill all n*****s”. PLEASE be careful and stay safe. I just saw one of these trucks (a white one), as far as I know there are seven and they’re all black or white with an American flag and a confederate flag on the back of the truck.when I passed them on the road I felt chills. PLEASE stay safe. If they are following you DO NOT drive home, drive to the nearest police station or the most populated place possible. They are armed and dangerous.

Here is an article and footage of what happened at the birthday party: http://m.ajc.com/news/news/local/watch-heated-confrontation-over-confederate-flags-/nm7JH/

To all you experimenting drugs users out there

Please. Please. Please. Stay away from heroin and meth. Please.

Don’t say “I just wanna try it once, I can control myself.” Don’t say it.

Just please don’t ever do those two drugs. Please.

Hi, guys. I have a pretty decent amount of followers on here, and I wanted to ask you for help.

This is Jeff, my sister’s rabbit. She got him as a baby about 7 years ago, and this has been his life ever since. I hate that it’s taken me this long to do something about it, but every time I bring up the fact that this is neglect and cruelty, my sister gets offended and angry, and my parents usually take her side. I’m not here enough to ensure he always gets the proper care, and I desperately want to find someone who will take care of him properly.

She doesn’t mean to be cruel, but my sister sees Jeff as more of a burden than anything. His cage goes weeks between cleanings, he never gets any exercise, and she often forgets to give him fresh food and water. I try to make up for it when I’m here, but I know it isn’t enough.

I’m looking for someone who will give him the love and care he deserves. He’s sweet and gentle, though I’m not sure how he will interact with other rabbits, since he’s been alone his entire life.

I know that this is technically stealing, but it’s for good reason. My sister would never agree to it if I told her directly, so it’s better I do this when she isn’t around. If you are in or around the Savannah, GA area, please message me. I just want to get him to a good home before it’s too late.

can we just like, all agree to boycott tumblr for 24 hours to show the staff that we’re pissed about the update? because they have to track usage and stuff like that, and I feel like it would send a pretty big message if enough people did it. like nothing fancy, just don’t use tumblr from 12:00am to 11:59pm, one whole day of nothing, not even mobile blogging. maybe set up one queue’d post explaining why you’re boycotting (so anyone that doesn’t get the memo would know what’s up) but other than that maybe even stop queues (just for the day) to help send the message.

I’d propose Wednesday, September 9th as the day. That’s one week after the update, one week to give it a try, one week to show the staff that we’re not just overreacting to change (the way people are apt to do on the internet) but are serious about not liking the way they’ve changed our blogging experience. That also gives us a week to get this post around the site: long enough to spread it around, but not so long that people forget that we’re going to do this. Maybe set a reminder on your phone or computer so that you don’t forget. I’ll be posting in the tag #updateboycott throughout the week for general reminders and to answer any questions/suggestions.

And please, reblog this. The only way this will work is if enough people see this post and participate to make a difference. 

so tl;dr: hate the update? join the boycott of tumblr on Wednesday, September 9th from 12:00am to 11:59pm by just not using tumblr that day. 

Thanks.

Reblog if you are NOT a Donald Trump supporter.

My family ranted to me last night about how they think Donald Trump is the only responsible person trying to run for president and they think “everyone supports him”.

I want to prove them wrong.

Reblog if you've ever smelled a book. My mom thinks I'm crazy.

Huh? I thought everyone did that?

Rest in peace, Satoru Iwata.
