Hi Everyone! I Have Not Been On In A While But When I Logged On I Noticed A Bunch Of Posts That I Did

Hi everyone! I have not been on in a while but when I logged on I noticed a bunch of posts that I did not make. I assumed someone hacked into my account but thought I would look into it since it seemed really specific. Welp, turns out I was onto something. Sounds like not only is this a bot that is hacking into peoples accounts but tumblr has tried to stop it to some capacity. This is just a PSA to others who may run into this problem. Once it happens, change your password.

Today on 'tumblr is Perfectly Functional With No Flaws Whatsoever'

so i know we're all going wild over TumblrPremiumPlus or whatever the fuck but ive made a new discovery about the r//a///yba//n/s scam (or new to me) and since i spent the time i should have been writing up my thesis proposal doing Tumblr Science instead, i have to at least write it down

so my datemate got an IM from someone asking what 'the sunglasses scam' was. That's in quotes bc the specific phrasing will be significant later.

my datemate replies with a message more or less along these lines:

"The sunglasses thing was about a bot that would hack accounts. Once it had access to an account it would make a post about Ray-Ban sunglasses and if you clicked the link in the post it'd hack you too."

Ey hits enter, but the message won't send. Not unusual, we all know that tumblr IM wil just randomly glitch out when it feels like it. So ey hits refresh, and abruptly finds emself on the log-in page.

"Hi! It's time to change your password!" the log-in page says.

My datemate is naturally suspicious about unexpectedly being asked to alter eir password, but, since ey practises basic cybersecurity and actually uses different passwords for every site, ey figures there won't be too much risk. Ey resets eir password, logs back in, and types out the message to eir friend again.

Same thing happens. Message won't send, ey's booted back out to the log-in page, and told to change eir password again. So ey do.

The third time this happens, ey figures something has to be wrong with the message. I've been watching over eir shoulder for a couple of minutes at this point, so we do a bit of Sciencing to work out what the fuck is going on.

Hypothesis: Tumblr IM is, for some reason, flagging mentions of ray-ban.

Experiment: I send various ray-ban related words and phrases to my datemate via IM. If any of them refuse to send and I get kicked out on refreshing, we've found the culprit

Results: "ray-ban" is fine. "sunglasses" goes through no problem. the precise phrase "ray-ban sunglasses" gets me drop-kicked to the log-in page like i was trying to start a fight in a nightclub (or so i assume. ive never actually been out clubbing)

I do a bit of fucking around on text posts with that phrase to see if that achieves the same effect.

I even tried recreating the original scam post as close as i can get without linking to a malicious website.

Today On 'tumblr Is Perfectly Functional With No Flaws Whatsoever'

not a peep. i stay happily logged in.

so.

tumblrs solution to the ray-ban bots issue

was to blacklist the exact phrase "ray-ban sunglasses"

in the IM feature only

making it impossible

to TELL anyone

who uses the goddamn IM feature

about the goddamn scam

Bee and Puppycat Theory Part 2 (Includes Spoilers from Season 1)

However, in the middle of the (complex) spell, they are found by the bounty hunters (they detect and destroy magic.) I have a hunch these dark hands are either the bounty hunters, or a tool/spell used by the hunters to find and take/destroy all magic. Note that crystals *magically* grant wishes. And the music box (from the comics) they are wrapped around tells a story about a *royal* family and the princess ahs the same head thing as Puppycat’s fiance.

So, she opens a portal and transports her son to safety. The girl is under magical strain as she tries to put up protection spells, physical barricades, and maintain the momentum of her spell casting. She slips up and accidentally turns him into a, well, puppycat. At this point, she knows she does not have enough magic to change him again. She puts on her necklace with the elixir of life vial and uses her waning magic to open another portal to the land with no magic, where her son is, and where the Hunters won’t be able to find them. This drain on her magic breaks her protection spells. She pushes puppycat through the portal. The hunters break through the door. She is halfway through the portal. She gets shot by a curse dart. A sleeping curse dart, meant to stop her.Ā

Note that Cardamom doesn’t say she’s sick or in a coma, despiteĀ being a very proper character with aĀ large vocabulary. He says she’s SLEEPING. Additionally, there are no tubesĀ connected to her stomachĀ or mouth to feed her, yet there are plates of food that have not been touched. So if she’s notĀ eating, how is she alive? The elixir of life.Ā But she makes it through the portal just as it closes. She uses the last bit of magic she has to go to her son, destroying the portal stream. Puppycat is dumped on some strange planet, where he ends up finding the temp agency and works hard to find someone with magic who can help him get back to Violet.Ā This takes a while (months, years), backed up by the fact that Puppycat says he’s done some jobs before and has a maxed out save on the video game.

Meanwhile, on earth, as the curse starts takes effect, the boy frantically grabs the closest stranger he finds, and rambles madly about magic and curses and hunters and his mom. The stranger, an old charitable lady who rents out her estate, takes them to the hospital and takes in the boy. The mother goes into a coma, and the boy stays with the old lady and her dog for a few weeks. While not unkind, she is rather sensible and strict, and absolutely forbids him from talking about ā€œnonsenseā€ involving magic and spells and bounty hunters. She tells him he was just traumatized by what happened to his mom, and he eventually believes it. After a few weeks, the hospital says they will have to pull the plug or transfer her somewhere else, so the rich old lady sets up a room in her apartment, buys the medical equipment necessary, and keeps the mom in her home. The old lady raises the boy until he is 4, teaching him about the apartments, the world, and being a landlord. Then, she goes on an extended vacation with family. She allows cardamom and his mom to stay, as Cardamom faked aĀ ā€œletterā€ from hisĀ ā€œauntā€ saying the aunt would come and house sit and watch him until the old lady came back. At this point, Puppycat has found a way to ā€œthe magic-less planetā€, but he is transported somewhere random. He lands right on top of Bee’s head (see the pilot episode)!Ā And so, the boy takes up landlord duties to keep the money coming in for his mom’s life support. This is evident by the way Cardamom says he is their landlord NOW, implying this is something new, and doesn’t seem to know Deckard.
