March 29th Tumblr Mobile Update

poetbitesback:

Hey, so as many of you know – I hate tumblr. I hate how they change formatting without regard for writers. I hate how people constantly steal work. I hate the unnecessary unkindness that seems to permeate this space. But most importantly, I hate update that effect things already posted. 

For my dear mobile readers, none of my poems have line breaks anymore regardless of whether they were posted in quote or text. As we all know, tumblr updated a while back and fucked up quote, then they changed them, then they fucked them up, and now they have fucked them up more. 

Honestly, I am really tired of the content I produce being manipulated in this way and feeling as though I am unable to present my writing in the way I want. Message me if you know of a way to keep my line break’s integrity on mobile. 

I am really at the point where I just don’t want to post because people don’t want to read things that seemingly don’t make sense. 

Another user requesting @staff to step up and own the problem of formatting. Lots of upset people in this neighbourhood. Take action @brimurph as CTO this should fall under your domain.

Close to just deleting my blog after all of these years. Trying to navigate Tumblr via browser is bullshit, but the app has gotten so bad it’s unusable. FUCK THIS BULLSHIT. I AM SO ANGRY.

Come of @staff It is time you stepped up and owned this problem. Lots of upset people in this neighbourhood. Take action @brimurph

Maybe Tomorrow

Maybe Tomorrow will see my face / reflecting the rays of a sun emerging / maybe Tomorrow will see my feet / tread the path between trees of Eden / maybe Tomorrow will see my health / lacking now restored and invigourated / maybe Tomorrow will be the day / I reenter the world again

@staff

I am so sick of your shit.

Why is it EVERY DAMN TIME that you update this WORTHLESS APP that you FUCK UP my writing even more?!

WHY?!?!

You certainly aren’t trying to help me. So, you must have SOME FUCKING REASON TO BE DOING IT!!!

Whay can’t you even leave my OLD POSTS alone, huh?!?!?

Are you so driven by greed and control that reformatting my GODDAMN WRITING makes some kind of gains for you???

HUH???

Jesus Christ, I hate this fucking site.

I think we can agree that there is room for improved in the Tumblr apps dev department. I’ve joined the android app beta program and will be reporting issues until they are all fixed.

teflon coated

I appear before you, not as myself but rather someone wrapped in layers; obfuscation if you like in the hope that I can present a more true reflection of that which is I. It is not my face you see, not my blue eyes and unshaven cheeks. You know not my name and to address me by mail you need handles, aliases cover all my closed entrances. Those are my tricks; in a trade of revealing myself to the public without the guilt sticking permanently.

I miss your hand / under the blanket / even as we drifted apart / our fingers touched / at night / I miss your hand / and our embrace / the touching / no longer / present

Smiling

There is beauty in death. As I watch you take the next step. As you leave me behind. I mourn as you rejoice in the sand untouched. All I ask from you, is to remember. Remember Me and times we had in the light. Smiling.

Tumblr is a strange beast…, I get notified when someone who has blocked me likes one of my posts…
