For those looking to use the techniques I used in this post, feel free to check out the usage on these three CSS functions:

  • the linear-gradient function of the background CSS element
  • the blur function for the filter CSS element
  • the text-shadow CSS element

Here's the HTML I used in my post.

<div style="background: linear-gradient(180deg, rgba(2,0,36,1) 0%, rgba(9,9,121,1) 64%, rgba(0,106,255,1) 100%); width: 640px; height:480px; vertical-align: middle; display: table-cell;">
<p style="filter: blur(1px); font-weight: bolder; line-height: normal; text-align: center; font-family: Georgia,'Times New Roman',serif; font-size:5em; color: #ffe680; text-shadow: 8px 8px 1px black;">FUCK&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;YOU<br />TUMBLR!</p>
</div>

Visually a little messy and confusing, especially with all the rgba() colour declarations. I am terribad at CSS positioning so pls don't think the above is a good example of centring things.

Be mindful that stuff like the filter element might not work on older browsers, so ymmv

From what I can gather, a trans woman over there was getting harrassed for the usual reasons, asked for help, got none, but staff were more than happy to flag her transitioning timeline photos as porn (which it sounds like they weren't even explicit so wtf).

Trans woman then tells CEO to die in an absolutely cartoonish way for the utter failure of not maintaining site safety, CEO freaks the fuck out, siccs the FBI on the poor girl while misgendering her, and every trans person on tumblr Had A Problem With That, pushing the CEO further into a public meltdown
