i saw some comments on tiktok where people were talking bout how they found tumblr too hard to use and part of it being that there was no lack of dates so “what if you reblog or like something from five years ago?!” 

buddy… we have posts circulating still from 2011, its literally just how it is

Being on tumblr for years like:

this post is 2 years old and it’s only going to get funnier as it gets older

I have to add that this is all kind of ironically funny given that so often I see  screenshots of ages old tumblr posts going around other platforms. 

Here they are, worried about outdated memes like they weren’t feeding off the run off to begin with.

This is what I tried to explain to US platforms like Patreon when they suspended my account for having a nude statue as the background image: I live in Europe, I can go and see a nude statue within a 5 minutes walk. Children can see them, they’re not in some 18+ container. I will never understand those policies.

As an American, the times I’ve gone abroad I’ve felt free and open in a way that made coming back to the US extremely jarring in a way I couldn’t fully describe. This is an aspect of it—a sanitized, dead culture entirely composed of constant advertisements and guns.

I’m confused how art with genitals in it can even get hand wringing? that’s just in every gallery? How do you even sanitise that without carving out some really significant parts of art history?

correct. now you’re catching on.


anyway this is really what America is like. the right wing is currently weaponizing this against gay and trans people by accusing them of “grooming”. it’s really interesting to me to watch Europeans discover the reasons WHY Americans are all insane. like we didn’t get this way by accident there are extremely powerful stressors acting on us from before the moment of birth that causes epigenetic syndromes, chronic illness and derangement lol

ADHD in the era of the personal brand is wild.

You get into a thing and hyperfocus harder than anyone ever has hyperfocused. Dozens, hundreds of posts across multiple platforms. You discover things no one knows, you create many new things, you intangibly weave your very digital soul into the threads of this niche thing’s fabric. You are now known as “The Thing Guy” on several websites (despite not being a guy). People screenshot it and crosspost it to other websites, and the comments are like “OH IT’S THE THING GUY AGAIN!”

three weeks later, you drop it like a stone. You still want to do it, but you have no more motivation, and you can’t force yourself to touch it again. Your brain just goes “bored now” and moves on. 

Mere months later someone goes “hey, aren’t you The Thing Guy?”. You are suddenly smoking a cigarette. You take a deep drag. “Used to be, long ago… back in March”. They look at the calendar. It’s halfway through May.
