In the latest migration to a new virtual private server, some of the links to images in the earliest posts to this blog were broken. If you encounter one of these broken links, please let me know. I have backups and can restore the images.
There’s only one person who agrees with me on everything, and, as I’m not running for office, that person is not on the ballot.
Tumblr is a very strange internet place.

I don’t understand it either. Tumblr makes republishing photos from other sources on the web an almost instantaneous thing — it’s called “reblogging” — and it makes this kind of thing easy to get obsessed with. You’re awarded with a note on your post everytime someone reposts one of the pics you’ve stolen from somewhere else and that’s how they keep score, in terms of popularity. It’s mindless so a piece like this isn’t totally surprising, since the woman, herself, seems totally mindless.

It’s a walled garden. You can’t comment on them unless you have a Tumblr login, though.
There are a couple of blogs there that I like (PoliticalProf and Contradict Me particularly), but mostly it seems to be pr0n.

No one went broke making piracy social media for pr0n obsessives.
