What city do you live in?
Tokyo, Japan

Shanghai, China
São Paulo, Brazil
Mexico City, Mexico
Cairo, Egypt
Mumbai, India
Beijing, China
Dhaka, Bangladesh
some other city which is not among the 9 most populous cities in the world*
*as listed by the UN. post in the tags if you’re not from one of these cities!
I feel that this is an important case study in Tumblr demographics and what the polls are actually reflecting
actually based on my math this is currently pretty representative! 2.7% of respondents live in the most populous cities, which would be 216 million people (of 8 billion), and the total population of those 9 cities is just over 214 million!

the r/curatedtumblr -> tumblr migration is so funny to me. it’s like going to the zoo and enjoying it so much you climb into the enclosure to live with the monkeys
despite staff’s recent changes, we’re… winning??????
twitter: currently owned by techbro pissman
tumblr: actively removing functionality and bloating the interface with things nobody uses
discord: being retooled by ex-Meta management who don’t understand the appeal of the platform
youtube: neutered by advertisers and algorithms and also tiktokification
reddit: half of the site is down due to protests about the outrageous monetization of third-party API support
facebook: my mom is on there
kiddos
funniest thing about the “reddit migration” is that I haven’t seen a single post shitting on anyone coming from Reddit. when twitter started bleeding users everyone was firing rent-lowering posts but with redditors skittering about we’ve left the doors open and put out food bowls
ruh roh, it gets worse
easily the funniest single letter typo is p to o. why he ourple
“A submarine has gone missing” : Oh jeeze, I hope they find those people.
“A submarine visiting the wreck of the titanic has gone missing” : Well, that’s a little ghoulish but I can’t blame folks for a morbid curiosity, especially at a monument to white man’s hubris.
“An experimental cobbled together submarine visiting the wreck of the titanic has gone missing” : Well at this point y'all were just taking your lives into your own hands and also how is ‘slapped together submarine’ a legal thing that’s real.
“An experimental cobbled together submarine full of the absurdly wealthy visiting the wreck of the titanic has gone missing” : Okay now this just feels a little too on point someone has to be joking with me.
