Reblog if you legally purchased something BECAUSE you saw it on YouTube or downloaded it.

And without the so-called piracy, you would never have discovered or gotten into it to begin with.

Yep, definitely.

What I’ve said….Without these sites I’d never discovered any of my fandoms and therefore never have started my original collections

prettyalarming replied to your post: Honestly, I think the worst part about the potential censorship laws is the possibility that I’ll have to acquire a real social life again.

what “real social life again”? I’ll become a hacker…and I’ll shut their shit down whenever I want…they wanted a war, they got one e__é

Teach me the ways of the hacker and I will join you. This will be just as serious as any other war, if not a million times more intense because there will be so many crazed internet fiends. THE BATTLE OF WITS HAS BEGUN.

Here comes…..the heavy artillery.

Tumblr can’t be shut down. It just can’t. This isn’t just a social blogging site. This is where people have made friends, found their soul mates, stopped people from killing themselves, raised awareness for certain diseases and disorders, discovered that we are not alone in certain aspects and learned that there are people who have the same interests as us outside of school or anywhere else. We express our real personalities on here. We are not the fake ones. Tumblr is a place for artists of all types, photographers, fashion lovers, multiple fandom supporters, and so much more. We are Tumblr. We are all connected in some way. We are one. We’re not just some social blogging site.

TUMBLR IS SAVE GUYS! TUMBLR STAFF SAID IT

I don’t know who are you Renee but I think that I love you~

electric-cookie:

I wish Tumblr had a “I feel your pain” button

because I feel terrible whenever I “like” one of your sad text posts

and it looks like I enjoy watching you suffer

because I don’t

I really don’t

my mom’s argument against piracy is “well what if you wrote a book and one person bought it and then hundreds of people got to read it for free and you didn’t make any money!”

MOTHER YOU HAVE JUST DESCRIBED

Don’t pity the dead, Harry. Pity the living and above all, those who are losing the Internet.
