God I Love Marks Hair!

@therealjacksepticeye

hey! Hey YOU!

now that i have your attention…

i have to preface this post by saying that im american. as an american on this website with mostly american-oriented content, i know little of what is happening elsewhere in the world. recently, however, i have noticed that europe is having some issues - specifically issues regarding censorship of the internet.

now, do you wanna know why i prefaced this with ‘im american?’

because the only people that i’ve seen talking about this aren’t americans, but distressed europeans

i don’t know much about the situation, unfortunately. my understanding is that the EU wants to pass two articles that control how copyrighted information is passed on the internet. however, instead of slightly tightening their copyright laws, they seem to want to go to the extreme and censor any content that europeans produce and consume.

now think of how this could affect us, as the jse community.

sean, obviously, is european. born and raised in ireland, moved to the uk in 2017. he has dedicated 6 years of his life to uploading gaming videos and sketch comedies on youtube just for us, to build this wonderful and loving community.

if the EU decides to pass these articles?

shit is going to change, fam

thankfully, sean is in a position as to where he might not get as fucked over by this as others will, but it will still hurt. it will hurt him, as he loves this job and it will force him to find work elsewhere. it will hurt robin, who has been helping sean with his videos, especially the ego content, since 2016. it will hurt many of sean’s friends on youtube (pewdiepie, kickthepj, emma blackery, etc.)

most importantly?

it will hurt us, as sean’s audience.

i don’t know many people within the community, but i have heard stories. stories told through pax panels, stories shared in videos, stories shared across tumblr and twitter. i know sean means a lot to a lot of people out there. he is the reason they smile, the reason they want to get out of bed and live their lives. and i know that without having sean around, it might tremendously impact them. it might cut them off from friends they’ve made online, job opportunities they have because of sean, having a loving, supportive community to come to when their mental health might be in a shitty place, etc.

so why do i want your attention?

because of my position as a non-european, i know little about what is happening in europe and what i should do to help. but i know there are millions of people out there that can help.

i have four requests to ask of you guys, as a member of the jse community and the internet.

1. we need to signal boost the hell out of this to get sean’s attention. if we can get his attention, he can make a video about it, which will spread more awareness and encourage more europeans to take action.

2. i would like if anybody could update this post with information that we can give to sean and others. the more accurate, up-to-date, and easily explainable the information is, the better.

3. i would like to encourage europeans to take action besides signing internet petitions. go out, talk to your governments about this. write them letters. make calls. protest. make. some. noise. the more noise we make, the more we could sway them in our favor.

4. i would appreciate it if anybody could signal boost the hell out of this in general, as members of the jse community and internet. the more attention we can draw to this issue, the more lives we could help impact and (hopefully) improve.

you guys helped us americans when we we going through our net neutrality crisis.

now it’s our turn, as non-europeans, to help you through yours.

(sincere apologies if some information is outdated. i’m trying to work on this post as fast as i can with recently updated info and quite frankly, i’m not sure what to look for. i just hope this helps)

@staff @support

First the fucking tags, second the purge, then flagging innocent posts and blogs as sensitive, now I can’t even see people’s reblogs on my posts, are you serious @staff @support ???!!!!

This bullshit is going too far, if this hellsite is coming to an end it’s all your fault.

You didn’t act when it was the time but instead chose to do it with a dollar worth of a fucking bot that doesn’t even work when Apple removed the app from the App Store.

And you know what’s worse? If you used the same fucking algorithm to ban nazis, pedos and bullies at least the purge would’ve been a little more useful, because c'mon who the fuck cares about titties and dicks when there are literal terrorists festering this site?

You talk about “a new better tumblr” when all you’re doing is not care and just throw in a malfunctioning bot that doesn’t even flag the right stuff. You can block tags, specific words, photos, videos, but instead of deleting what’s really been bothering the users for all this time you just go for the easy stuff, and you know that the media will talk about this, about “tumblr deleting porn and dirty blogs”, but guess what, I highly suspect that the titles will more likely be “ Tumblr fucks up, again” because that’s what you do, dear staff, you make promises and then throw them into the void with all those blogs that’ve been wrongfully deleted.

You wanna fix stuff? Fix the tags. Fix the filters. Fix the reblogs. Fix your fucking and apparently useless algorithm.

And you wanna know something? If your algorithm works but also deletes other things other than what was meant to flag and purge then it doesn’t work, it’s broken. Don’t take credit for something that works 10% of its meant functionality, and it’s my best guess, because if a thing doesn’t work and you know it then it’s your job as creators to not unleash it, to keep it until it works properly and can do a good job without ruining innocent users’ blogs and experiences.

But instead you opted for the easy option, setting up a malfunctioning bot just to be granted another chance and be seen as hardworking and caretaking under Apple’s angry eyes.

You wanna know what is imperative to succeed in purging tumblr of all that shit? Actually caring about the people that use it every damn day.

And from how things are going? You don’t seem to care very much.

Please reblog this, I want this to fucking reach their headquarters to blow them up. Literally. This shit’s been going on for too fucking long. It’s time for a change.

The photos are out now on Twitter and Instagram have some exclusives

what is this from?

That time that Robin did manage to get away with it haha

Reblog if you’re a Creek shipper

I need more blogs to followwwww

Giving money away

Hey everyone, I’m giving a thousand away again, I’ll pick a random reblog, i really don’t want this money, it doesn’t make me happy and I’m hoping it’ll make someone else happy

Share the love and I’ll share my money

I’m not a mean person so why be a mean person on the internet when you can be nice (I’ve never left a hate comment that’s what I’m trying to say)

There's over 9 million users on Tumblr now. Reblog if you're one of the few who's never EVER left anon hate in somebody's ask box.
