A lot of people have been making/reblogig posts about how they won’t be leaving Tumblr no matter what happens, and I don’t think I need to do the same because I hope the effort and love I’ve put into this blog would speak for itself. But I will say this:

I don’t have any desire to support a company like Tumblr. If I can find a startup run by competent people who care about other human beings then I’ll be switching my socially active presence (and my money, whether that’s via actual cash or the ads I view while being on the site) to the better place. So long as people are following me here I won’t quit Tumblr, nor will I stop posting, but I will limit my time (and therefore my monetary support of the site) to just the effort it takes to quickly post and reply to people.

Tumblr is a flaming pile of shit, so no, I won’t go down with this ship. I will continue to use it for my own benifit as long as staff doesn’t wipe my blog off the map, but I won’t pretend this is my home. My home is the people here who’ve made tumblr bearable, and, if I can, I’d rather support something new and better so we can make that our home someday instead.

(you can reblog this if you agree)
