The Olympics opening ceremony has sparked my enjoyment of Les mis once again and would love an enjoltaire roleplay. I’m 25, he/him, looking for 20+ roleplay partners. Semi-lit/advanced lit depending on the person, the plot, and the vibes. On a good day my replies break discords word limit.
Please just try to match reply length as much as possible. I’m looking for someone to play grantaire, as I’m used to playing enjolras. Other than that I’m not picky. Feel free to like or dm me if interested. We’ll do some plotting and then migrate over to discord.
Felt like doodling them
The plan for the 17th, when the adult content ban comes in, is to protest.
To do that, we are making as much noise either side of the 17th as possible, and using the site as normal.
On the 17th, dead silence.
People are saying log off but what they really mean is don’t open the site or the app.
But, on the 17th make as much noise as possible on every other platform. Tweet about it and post on facebook and instagram and everywhere else.
What this does is causes a massive dip in ad revenue for one single day. That does not make staff think ‘oh everyone’s gone let’s shut down.’ What it actually makes them think is ‘oh shit people aren’t happy and if people don’t keep using our site we’re out of money and out of jobs.’
A boycott reminds a company that the users (consumers) have the power to make their site (business) worthless with one single coordinated decision.
If you want to join in, here’s what to do:
Do:
Close all open instances of the app and site on all your devices before the 17th
Make posts before and after the 17th on tumblr and other platforms, talking about why this ban is bad
Make posts on other sites during the 17th. Flood the official tumblr staff twitter and facebook with your anger and your opinion
Come back on the 18th and check in
Don’t:
Delete the app from your phone (this doesn’t affect their revenue and since it’s off the store at the moment it’ll be hard to get back)
Delete your account. I mean you can if you want to, but if you keep your account and don’t use it you’re saying to staff that there’s still time to save it. If you delete it’s hard work to come back.
Open the app or website (including specific blogs)
Make any posts (turn down/off your queue and make sure nothing is scheduled)
Go quiet elsewhere. Make it clear that this is just about tumblr, not a mass move away from all social media.
Remember: the execs don’t care about anything but money. Shutting down the site means there’s $0 further income from it. That’s their last possible course of action. If we make it clear we’re not happy, they’ll have to do something or we can do more and more until it becomes too expensive.
Protests take commitment. They’re a defiant action against a business that is doing something wrong. They will try to scare you into not participating, because they’re scared. We hold all the power here, sometimes the execs just need to be reminded of that.
great actor. one of my favorites.

ok but, i lowkey think Clint Eastwood from the good the bad and the ugly, is really hot.

Due to the continued progression of the KOSA bill I would like to remind everyone, that this message reaches, that this is an over reach of government power. The constitution lines out that our government has no right to censor media. This bill has been proven by media outlets and its very own creator to violate the constitution’s first amendment, and the creator has stated that it is meant to be a direct attack on the queer community and media. This attack on our rights should meet a swift end as I hope we as the forces of tumblr can rally and vote to kill the bill on March 13th. If we stand idlely by and allow this to base our government will become more ballsy and I fear that eventually we may start to lose more of our rights as citizens. And so I shall say that it is in the constitution that if our government over reaches their power and does stuff like this we as citizen have the power to reinforce our rights and fight back against the government.
