(I know I’ve been trying to stick to links in the “[link]” form lately, because–at least IME–these days it’s not always easy to tell in the dashboard view whether something is a link or not, but this post really does flow a lot better with embedded links.)

This notepad draft has been through a couple iterations today as I learn more stuff and think of more possibilities, but I guess I’ll post it now. Everything is still pretty up in the air, though.

I have made an account @brinbellway@pleroma.site. I do not know yet whether I will be posting anything there, or just reading. I will probably not stay on that instance long-term, unless maybe I only use it as a dashboard.

I made a Scuttlebutt account, but upon poking around in it I don’t think it’s really suitable for my current needs. I might try it someday, but not now.

I am fairly confident that my future OPs will be on Dreamwidth: https://brin-bellway.dreamwidth.org. There may also be link roundups and/or roundups of comments I’ve posted. 

Definitely for at least a little while, I will post links to new DW entries on Tumblr. The thought occurred to me this evening that I *could* do that indefinitely, and simply see whether the censors ever notice what some of those external posts are about.

Yes, I see the place is falling apart. Yes, I don’t trust the devs further than I could throw their server racks. Yes, I know they won’t want deviants like me here.

But what are they going to do? Delete me?

(You know what, I’m going to move the tag ramble into the main post body. I think I don’t want it to get left out of any reblogs, and if nothing else it’s less work for the future self cleaning up this WordPress-mirror entry.)

#I’m gonna go ahead and preserve the tag   #The Last Tumblr Apocalypse   #regardless of what happens next   #even if I end up not being in the first wave of evacuation I still believe   #that people looking back will see this as the beginning of the end   #but honestly the past couple days have been a fucking emotional whirlwind   #and I have not had enough sleep today   #and I don’t really know what I think anymore   #(and because this *is* still a Tumblr-hosted post I am trying very hard not to make any innuendos about any of that)   #just… bear with me‚ okay? bear with all of us‚ as we figure this out together
