A lot of Tumblr blog owners are looking at having a lot of their work accumulated over many years go up in smoke. MJ has already discussed some of the issues they face. Here's another blog owner's take and some of his/her suggestions.

They're being forced to move once but may be reluctant to move again at a later date.
Bottom line is that the opportunity to bring them to Lush likely has a "best if sold by" date.

I know lots of people are talking about migrating, but none of us are sure to where yet. Pillowfort seems to be an option, some people are talking about Twitter. But for now, it’s a mess, and even if we knew where we were going, it’s often a huge process, and a lot of us have stuff on tumblr that ONLY exists there.
One possible quick solution to save your blogs, both NSFW and personal, is to import it to WordPress. I found this solution through from frantic googling on how to save an entire blog, text posts an all. There are several apps for downloading all the pictures from a tumblr, (Plently for Windows, but only a few paid ones for mac, of which Tumbelog Picture Downloader is working for me so far) but this is the only solution I’ve seen so far that allows you to save EVERYTHING. I downloaded my NSFW blog in like 10 min. My regular blog, which is significantly larger, is in the process of importing, but I don’t anticipate any problems. I will, of course, update you if I have any.

You do realize that there are other forum sections right?
I'm still amazed that Seax would choose the one forum with "think" in the title to continue to post anything, let alone this.
Take a few moments and try this:
1. Go to your safe space.
2. Close the door.
3. Meditate on the question: "Could Seax be messing with my head?"
In the meantime, the subject of this thread is Camel Toes, not "how many irrelevant personal insults can I put in a post". You're welcome to start a thread on creative insults or perhaps get the powers that be to create a Forum section exclusively to showcase your blindingly brilliant wit.
I guess everyone is good at something.
In the mean time, please try to stay on topic.

Not really a think tank topic, but with all the toxic spew in most of the threads, kind of a welcome relief.
Please try to keep it on topic, Spritecus!
Step out of line one more time and you'll have to post a Camel Toe selfie. ;-)
Ah, nevermind. Just post it!

Your friends won't ride in your car because you've always got Rush Limbaugh on?
You girlfriend kicked you to the curb cuz you said you thought Rachel Maddow was hot?
You tried to date a woman from work but all she talked about was Elizabeth Warren's next run for President?

Been there, done that, bought the T-shirt, use it to wax my truck.
In my younger and dumber days I went through a bunch of those. I'd find them practically laying in the dirt, pick them up, dust them off, dry their tears, get them on an even keel, and watch them run right back to their abuser. Some women, and some men, are drawn to people who are down right nasty to them. I still don't understand the compulsion but I've seen it first hand and can tell you it is very real.
I picked up two things in your post that need to be recognized and dealt with. First, he will continue to use every bit of influence he has or can acquire to manipulate her. The children are no exception. Second, its common for abusers of that type to need to increase their level of abuse over time. She needs to break off contact with him yesterday if not sooner. The idea that she and the children will be safe until the children turn 18 is a false assumption. She is in physical danger right now. There is no way to predict when the psychological abuse will become physical abuse but odds are that it will.
But the bottom line is this. An old joke asks how many psychiatrists it takes to change a light bulb. The punch line is it only takes one, but the light bulb has to want to change.
Until your light bulb wants to change, until she recognizes that her behavior, while getting her the empathy and attention she craves from others, is in fact destructive, and resolves to make some drastic changes, there isn't a God damned thing you can do.

Something I read years ago:
Harry Truman showed us any man can be elected President.
Franklin Roosevelt showed us a man can overcome any obstacle to be elected President.
Dwight Eisenhower showed us we don't really need a President.
Richard Nixon showed us that might not be such a bad idea.

As Buz noted above, Petty was from Gainesville, home of the University of Florida. I was a student there before his career took off and saw a number of his free concerts with his band set up around an outdoor fountain at the Reitz Student Union.
Years later I heard one of the Miami rock DJ's telling a Petty story on the air. It seems that there was a music store in Gainesville that supported the local rockers. The store sold sheet music, vinyl albums, tapes in various formats, and all sorts of musical instruments. The owner encouraged the local musicians to try out the new stuff at a bandstand set up in the corner of the store. If they tried a new guitar or piece of gear they liked, he fronted it to them and allowed them to pay it off over time. Years later, when the owner was selling the business and going into retirement, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers put on a benefit concert in Gainesville with the proceeds going to the music store owner's retirement fund. It was their way of supporting the guy who supported them. I thought that was a very fitting thing to do. Put me down as another saddened by his untimely death.

None of which has got any relevance to the post I made. Yet again you miss the point. I'd get a refund on that MENSA membership if you can.

Not even the part about how Kool Aid makes me gag?
Anyway, thanks for looking out for my finances, but I think Mensa needs the money more than I do.

Please, dont try and make out that I said things that I didn't. I'll try and explain this to you so you can understand;
Your comment regarding previous Presidents having had the impact on world history that they could have, would have or should have had promted my reply about it not actually being in their job Description to 'have an impact on World history'.
I said absolutely nothing, nor did I ever imply anything regarding NATO and countries contributions to it.
If you want to try and make a point about how brilliant you think Trump is, don't make out I said something I didnt.
Keep drinking the Kool-aid.
A bad experience at summer camp gives me the heaves anytime I get near Kool Aid AKA "bug juice".
Not to sound my own horn, but I once was a National Merit Scholar and some years after that I took the test and joined Mensa on a bet. Standing in a wine and cheese party listening to people tell themselves how incredibly brilliant they are gets old quickly. So my time with that self satisfied group was short and not so sweet.
Long story short, I do not consider Donald J. Trump to be smart. But he's obviously smart enough to head a big bucks real estate empire and get himself elected POTUS. He ain't stupid either.
I wasn't trying to tick you off. It seems like so many people on here have a hair trigger and feel insulted at the drop of a hat. Not surprising given the level of vitriol spewed on these pages from time to time. But that was not my intent. Apologies for any offense.
What I did mean to say is that post WWI and certainly post WWII, formerly isolationist USA became a player on the world stage. A war weary Europe was more than willing for us to take the lead and face off with the USSR. They didn't really have much choice at the time. And regardless of the official job description, POTUS became "leader of the free world" with the American taxpayer picking up much of the tab for defending our friends.
However, the NATO treaty does place certain obligations on each of the members. They obligated themselves to spend 2% of their GDP on defense. Most of them don't. The USA has to pick up the slack or NATO will fold like a cheap suit.
http://time.com/4680885/nato-defense-spending-budget-trump/
Perhaps if the others were carrying more of the burden of collective defense, the USA might be able to divert some of its resources to the universal health care that so many European nations have, and our Left seems to insist we should have as well.
I'd like to remind those reading this post that Lyndon B. Johnson insisted that the USA could afford The Great Society, standing up to the USSR around the globe, and the Vietnam War simultaneously. Guns and Butter at the same time as it were. The economic result was roaring inflation that resulted in 20% interest rates under Carter before it started to come under control. Let's hope we don't repeat that bitter lesson.
Bottom line, If Angela Merkel has to spring for a bunch more Leopard 3's,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZblvLxXEFdE
or a lot more Tornado strike aircraft,
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panavia_Tornado
then perhaps the USA could close some of the bases we keep in Germany and divert some of that money to things we need to do at home.
P.S. The gorgeous young lady on your avatar has been edging for days now. I'm not sure if there is a female equivalent of the male "see your doctor if you experience an erection lasting more than four hours", but perhaps you could show her some mercy and let her cum?

I am not sure that the Job Description for President of the United States of America states that they are to 'have an impact on World history'.
Job Description
The Constitution assigns the president two roles: chief executive of the federal government and Commander in Chief of the armed forces. As Commander in Chief, the president has the authority to send troops into combat, and is the only one who can decide whether to use nuclear weapons.
As chief executive, he enforces laws, treaties, and court rulings; develops federal policies; prepares the national budget; and appoints federal officials. He also approves or vetoes acts of Congress and grants pardons.
If what you're saying is that you want us to go back to the kind of USA we were under Calvin Coolidge you might want to start by telling NATO to put on their big boy pants and start shouldering their fair share of what is costs to really defend the free world. The NATO treaty requires each member to spend at least 2% of their GDP on defense. They don't.
Oh, wait! Trump just did that!
Angela was not happy!
Neither was the perpetually outraged American Left.

Setting the coolness factor aside for the moment, we've actually had two Presidents who had at least attained Obama's level of education. Some people see a PhD or JD as a measure of intelligence. That's a debate for another thread. That other was Woodrow Wilson who was also a college level educator. They both had one thing in common, other than their Progressive political leanings. They both had no problem letting people know that they were the smartest person in the room, they tended to lecture those attending meetings rather than seek out their views, and generally had a "my way or the highway" approach to governing.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woodrow_Wilson
Wilson felt that negotiations conducted in The League of Nations would solve all of the world's problems and was caught completely flatfooted when war erupted in Europe in 1914.
I'll leave it up to the class to discuss whether either Wilson or Obama had the impact on world history that they could have, would have or should have had.

Quote some facts disputing the ones I gave rather than just saying it's a fact. Hitler may have started WWII but my point was he was supported and elected as is your current leader and the pre-election behaviour of both these men illustrated just exactly how they would behave once in office. Oh and please don't misinterpret this to mean I support either of their actions. The allies behaved exactly in the way I've illustrated and in real terms lost the war. My theme was the reality not what some flag waving naive people think. I was advised to read history books well these facts are all contained in those rather than in romantic movies like Saving Private Ryan. As for your cock thingy well I can live with whatever that means. By the way there were people who were saying the same thing as me in 1945.
"I saw a film today, oh boy,
The English army had just won the war,
A crowd of people turned away,
But I just had a look,
Having read a book, I'd like to turn you on..." -- The Beatles in "A Day In The Life" from Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
Apologies to your younger folks! The Beatles were an obscure group that Sir Paul McCartney was in briefly before he founded Wings.
Somebody in the back wants to know who Sir Paul McCartney is? Never mind!
Most of us unfortunately learned our WWII history from watching war movies with a tenuous grasp on what actually happened. The possible exception being anyone living in one of the former Axis countries. Losers tend not to make many war movies. The one exception I'm aware of is "Das Boot".

Anyway. For a rather in depth look at who fought, won and lost WWII look here.

OK, that made me laugh. But for those who don't get the punchline, it comes straight from Betsy DeVos confirmation hearing as Trump's nominee for Secretary of Education where she advocated for allowing guns in schools (???), and her example to illustrate why guns should be allowed in schools was in case a grizzly bear entered a school. She cited an incident in Wyoming I believe, yet no one has ever been able to confirm this ever actually happened. In any case, it's become something of an albatross for her. And rightly so.
For those not familiar with who she is, this should explain it quite succinctly. She paid for her position in Trump's administration. Flat out bought it.
"Yeah, but, John, if The Pirates of the Caribbean breaks down, the pirates don't eat the tourists." -- Dr. Ian Malcom (Jeff Goldblum) in Jurassic Park
I'm going to guess that if it happened it happened in Alaska. You see, in Alaska the bears actually chow down on people with depressing frequency, unless of course you're one of the bears.
In part of our AT&T training on firearms at work, um.... actually on the fact that they were forbidden at work, we learned that there was one exception. In all of AT&T's operations world wide, only one. In Alaska outside technicians were allowed to carry firearms in their trucks on company time after submitting a form to management. It seems that the bears sometimes thought a tech on the side of the road working with tech support on a Remote Terminal trouble looked a lot like a snack.

Sadly we dont get many different varieties of butterflies here in the UK to my knowledge. I dont even see many red admirals or the rather more common white cauliflower. Nice to see in the garden on a sunny day.
You can help rectify that by providing host and food plants that will attract the butterflies to your property.

My wife and I have been attracting and raising, Monarch, Viceroy, Queen, Zebra Heliconian, Gulf Fritillary, Ruby Daggerwing, Giant Swallowtail, and Pipevine Swallowtail butterflies in our yard (garden) for years. It's actually quite easy to do. Plant the right plants then step back and watch the fun.
