Dawn of the Final Day

 Well, the Tumblr Purge is officially tomorrow.

I just finished saving a handful of text posts from one of my personal sideblogs and archived them here. Also tried to snag some of my favorite pieces of art from my small fan sideblog. But honestly, I haven't done as much as I could. It's finals during my most hellish semester so far and my puppy comes home in just four days, so I've just been... overwhelmed

And now, Tumblr has blocked the Wayback Machine. For reasons I cannot even begin to fathom, they've actively blocked archival attempts.

Although I don't know how it's going to turn out, how much the internet may or may not change in the coming months and years... I can't help but mourn. I can't imagine things aren't going to change, and significantly. Maybe not overnight. Maybe even for the better. But so much is going to shift, so much is going to be lost.

It's hard to wrap my head around, really.

Just. Shit.
