Everyone loves to shit on this site but the truth is no major social media platform fosters a sense of community quite like tumblr nor does it generate such valuable conversations (amidst a lot of bullshit granted but there’s no escaping that anywhere on the internet)…….like the kinds of genuine love n connection that are created via tumblr are absolutely unique to the platform and I don’t know why or what it is and I sure as hell don’t attribute the quality to anything the staff has ever done but it doesn’t matter, there is something special about it here, an accident maybe but over its 11 years of existence it’s consistently bridged a gap between traditional text-based blogging and more recently popular photo-centric social networking that allows for more humanity & innovation than I’ve found anywhere else, and I’ll be the first to say I’m only leaving when they drag me out by my ankles and u bet your bottom dollar I’ll be kicking and screaming.
