Help me out here, how does this person expect me to prove that I didn’t do something. What can I say except “hey that’s bullshit”. Do you want pictures of me not doing a thing? A witness account of me not thinking bad thoughts? The burden of proof is not on me when someone randomly accuses me of some made up bullshit, man, wtf is this

But what if it was all a dream

This is more unsettling. I know it’s there. I know it should be there. I know this pristine landscape is hiding its horrors like teeth.

Going to see Barbie this weekend and my friends are planning to dress up. I have never been one to pass up the opportunity to wear a funny little outfit but this is sooooo far out of my element. I’m GOTH I’m a LESBIAN what the FUCK am I supposed to do here.

The only clothing item I own with any pink on it is the MCR boy zone shirt that’s what we’re working with

WGA’s asking people interested in all the tree law fun to also sign this petition about a god damned bitch of an unsatisfactory situation on another street on the Same FUCKING lot. NBC Universal (whose CEO is Mike Cavanagh just btw in case Ron Pearlman is listening) has started a construction project that completely removed the sidewalks from five different gates, in two cases forcing pedestrians to literally walk into oncoming traffic. In addition to being an ADA violation, it’s just flat out despicably evil of them and WGA’s asking for public support on this issue.

To answer this question from @is-as-always, Yes, that did happen, I didn’t included it because I too couldn’t source it at the time of posting and didn’t want to put anything I couldn’t personally confirm here, but since then I have come across this article describing the situation which quotes from the NRLB complaint that the WGA filed that NBC Universals actions have quote “forc[ed] picketers to patrol in busy streets with significant car traffic where two picketers have already been struck by a car” so to answer, yes. Two people have already been hit by a car because of this. Fucked up, IMO.

Also, this isn’t related I’m just putting it in a more obvious spot, but a few people now have pointed out that this petition is on the official WGA West linktree (first link) in addition to being linked in a tweet that I posted elsewhere in the reblogs, for those who were rightfully cautious to make sure I’m not some guy on the internet making up what the WGA wants instead of relaying official requests.

So I think the best strat here is for the users who did get the new layout to just stop using the desktop version of the site for a while, like a week or a month or however long their ‘experiment’ is supposed to last, while the users who didn’t get the new layout should keep using the desktop version like normal or, perhaps, use it even more than usual.

My guess is that they’re doing basic A/B testing on the new layout to see if it would boost engagement: the userbase is split roughly 50/50 between the 2 versions and they are going to be comparing the engagement data between the 2 groups of users to see if it’s worth it switching everyone to the new layout or not.

Basically, if you got the new layout and don’t like it - don’t use it. If engagement metrics of group B (new layout) are lower than those of group A (no change), the experiment will be considered a failure and they will have to reverse the change.

If your tumblr suddenly looks like twitter - it’s a sign to log off and go touch some grass! (or just use the mobile app since that engagement data isn’t relevant to this particular experiment)

Don’t just not use it, send feedback too!

There’s a “contact us” option to send feedback about features being launched. GIVE FEEDBACK IN THE APPROPRIATE SPACE!

Not to “As a professional UX researcher” on this thread, but yeah, as a professional UX researcher, now is the exact time to provide clear (but kind!! the poor UX team is usually not responsible for these decisions) feedback on what your thoughts are in regards to this change.

In my job, if I were doing an AB test on a site layout and every person I interviewed said “I hate it, it looks like knockoff twitter, please put the old one back” then I would be very excited to include a nice little bullet point in my report that says “[x] number of participants disliked the new layout :)”
