But the website is never too normal for long, and you'll have another weird thing happen that makes history.

    i think the situation with gaud being “cancelled” is just the all too common practice nowadays of finding a well known person annoying or unlikeable and then trying to find moral justification for that dislike instead of just accepting that you dont like them. i know because i fully bought into this. i thought gaud was annoying, i didn’t like their posts, i thought the ‘everybody changing their icon to gaud’ thing was a super tryhard-ish attempt to recreate classic tumblr events with their own brand, i didn’t like that they acted like their icon was their OC or something when it was clearly a close-up of one of those creepy japanese piggy banks that eat coins that went viral about a decade ago. but since i was still a teenager and impressionable i saw people who also found them annoying overblowing minor criticisms into gaud doing something morally objectionable, and it’s always more personally validating for someone to be unequivocally Bad than you just not liking them. its obviously super immature but i think thats what was going on there

    Only ones I can think of that are missing are wereralph (he’s been deleted twice so he’s now were-ralph, and was previously were-ralph), and heritageposts. Neither have big scandals that I know of, but they are often summoned and just generally infamous. Also a very recent addition is nyancrimew (the Swedish hacktivist who leaked the no fly list). She’s obviously infamous for other reasons, but now that she’s been banned from twitter, tumblr is kinda her main social media site. And she’s been gaining more of a following on there, especially for the phrase ‘stay silly :3’.

He's been known for very consistently chaotic posts for the past few years at least, and he's garnered quite a lot of traction for having this vaguely threatening vibe, jumping unpredictable between cosmic horror and petty little pokemon rat.
    Like, specifically his jello vaccuum post a few years ago got an insane amount of notes.
    I would have put him on the same level as gaud in terms of being prolific and also in terms of vibes.
    Also, he makes music as well, though I never bothered to check if it's any good.

    Once got accused on Tumblr for "harassing multiple users of AO3 for fics I did not like." It was all based on one comment I made where I criticized a character and the author disagreed. Even the people spreading the rumors admitted that the comments they accused me of were entirely different people. When I would ask people who had been "warned" about me, they admitted that they couldn't actually remember any of the comments they'd "seen." And when they went looking for them, the best they could come up with was one argument and another time I had mentioned that a song that was mentioned in the notes was a cover and originally by a different artist. And instead of being "kicked off multiple sites", I had actually gotten a website stolen from me by shady business partners. I also got accused of calling an autistic person the R slur because I disagreed with them. I never one used that word. I had no idea they were autistic and tried to clear things up with them only for them to go "oh yes, I'M SO [R Slur]." I challenged them to release the messages to prove this and they went silent. I definitely did some cringe shit on Tumblr, but I never used slurs, never "harassed" people (unless you count regular ass fandom arguments with the same language everyone used as "harassment." If so, it was two way harassment). Talking about my experiences as an SA survivor and my feelings on depictions about it in media also got me branded as a sexist and victim shamer. I got conflated with and confused with different blogs constantly or had things I'd said about completely different things applied to unrelated situations. So yes, I can attest to the telephonery of Tumblr.
