Gives <urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed error. How do I fix this #157

Like I put in the title, when I do the last step, (python tumblr_backup.py yourblogname) it always shows up with <urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed. I've looked online and I can't find a way to get past this. I am also using a mac but I'm pretty sure I managed to change the instructions to work in mac (e.g added python in front of the last command). How do i fix this? I've attached a file of the code here. screen shot 2018-12-09 at 14 47 42
