Comment it out like this:

I forked this script over at https://gist.github.com/spoonyfork/d06e524df5dbe2b547f7d0e95fc9c37d with changes to get it to run on python 3.7. I also included instructions for use.
I also had success using this program to backup even more likes: https://github.com/neuro-sys/tumblr-likes-downloader

I have an issue where it worked for a while and downloaded some of my likes, probably about 1/5th. Now it says I have 6679 likes and 333 pages, but the total posts parsed and images downloaded are 0.
