Next time you think your workplace is weird, please remember that my workplace has an annual tattoo night out, where we rent out a tattoo parlor, order pizza, play cards against humanity, and watch some of our coworkers get tattooed

Where do you work?

A library

a 90’s kid? don’t you mean sad adult?

70,000 people have reblogged this but no one is trying to defend themselves

There is nothing to defend

This is the most solid explanation of our decade I have ever heard.

Just to add onto that, our childhood wasn’t even technology based. We grew up knowing of chalk, skateboards, jump rope, street hockey, playgrounds, butterfly collecting, etc. Slowly technology took over our lives and now there are hardly kids playing outside in the summer. We can clearly remember our childhood as it was and now we can see the clear line between it. We were the generation right smack in the middle of it all. Our parents were of non-tech and our children/young siblings will be all tech.

Not to mention, ours was the last generation that grew up with all those bright promises of “work hard, go to college, and you’ll have a successful life,” only to find those hopes abruptly dashed when the housing bubble burst. Milliennials have grown up expecting that disappointment, because for them, the problem has been there since Day One.

So 90s kids aren’t just nostalgic…we’re BITTER. And we ache for those days when we could still think that the world was boundless and full of the opportunities we were promised since the first day of kindergarten.

THIS IS BEYOND REAL

This post brought me to tears.

This is the realest shit I’ve ever read about our generation and I’m tearing up

Oh damn

I would just like to thank the tumblr staff for not developing a memories app like other social media platforms because I really don’t need to remember what specific parts of fandoms I was into on this day in 2010

bold of you to assume that the tumblr staff knows enough about programming to develop such an app

This is honestly the best reblog of this post I’ve seen so far

Yknow, part of me want to be upset, or properly angry, but a larger part of me finds it, in a way, amusing to just watch the chaos unfold.

Thanks, I try *fingerguns*

Minors being exposed to pornographic material on this website is pretty horrid but tumblr could’ve either been explicitly a no-pornography zone from the start OR, in the current version of reality, it can implement a legitimate filtering system ADMINISTERED BY HUMANS RATHER THAN RUNNING A SINGLE POORLY CODED BOT WRITTEN IN PHP, the current solution directly affects the survival income of a very large amount of people and is the laziest and cheapest one they could implement.

Silicon Valley style “all our moderation is done by bots who occasionally get updated by one person” moderation is a fucking blight upon the internet and is not going to become any better or going to stop giving random false positives and fucking over people who haven’t done anything harmful because its a fundamentally capitalist solution based on minimizing the costs of operating a massive social media platform. This entire mess could’ve been averted if this website wasn’t operated on the basis of “spend as little money as possible on keeping it clean”, except now they’re swerving from “don’t do anything” to “just have our bots delete immense amounts of the website basically arbitrarily, while we continue to not actually do anything”.
