today on the train home the guy next to me was on his phone and at one point i saw him go on tumblr and he just had like. a normie dash. like it was all photography. of nature and architecture. he was using tumblr the way a heterosexual landscaper for rich people might use instagram. i actually had to watch his screen for a few seconds to be sure it really was tumblr because i was so taken aback by the content he was viewing. this is why algorithmless websites are so beautiful btw because i genuinely didn't know that this side of tumblr even existed. he didn't even so much as scroll past any text posts.

EDIT: look i'm not going to turn off reblogs but i cannot stress enough that THIS WASN'T A HIPSTER BLOG DASH IT WASN'T AN AESTHETIC BLOG DASH IT WAS THE MOST WILDLY GENERIC COLLECTION OF IMAGES YOU HAVE EVER SEEN IN YOUR LIFE. I AM NOT EXAGGERATING OR BEING A QUIRKY FANDOM TUMBLRINA WHEN I SAY "NORMIE" I GENUINELY MEAN "SO NORMAL THAT IT CIRCLES AROUND TO WEIRD". CAN ANYBODY HEAR ME? HELLO?

#steph's post tag #also no more ''um actually there is an algorithm and this is proof'' THERE ISN'T AN ALGORITHM IF YOU DON'T LOOK AT THE FUCKING FOR YOU TAB #LIKE THE DASH IS A CHRONOLOGICAL FEED OF BLOGS YOU ALREADY FOLLOW. I DISCOVER BLOGS ORGANICALLY THROUGH THE ONES I ALREADY FOLLOW.#IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING AN ALGORITHM ON TUMBLR THAT'S A YOU PROBLEM.

Tab Hunter, on the photo pictured above. Which he took of his then boyfriend Anthony Perkins. It was found accidentally, while at an estate stale ( unbeknownst to Tab the estate sale was being run by one of Anthony's old friends)

me at age ten with unrestricted internet access googling “can tinkerbell and captain hook be in love” in incognito mode on my browser cause i didn’t know what g/t was but i sure did know i liked whatever the fuck was going on between those two:

#im pretty sure this was how i discovered fanfiction #g/t #giant tiny #growing up i only ever looked at gt on a private browser. like it was only sfw gt? and i had my own laptop no one looked at??#but it was only in incognito and only at night. if anyone woke up those tabs would close SO FAST #i felt so guilty about it as a kid. who knows why. glad thats over with #im shameless as fuck now ‼️ WE ARE PASSIONATE UNREPENTANTLY

Another thing I need pjsk fandom to realize:

1) there are literal 10 years old (and younger) children in this fandom;

2) the percentage of these children in the fandom is MUCH, MUCH higher than every single one of you here on tumbrl think it is.

"why do people write so much for popular characters?" "why do people write for kudos only?" aside from the fact that the "write for yourself" is a self-perpetuating issue in every fandom and the fact that every writer deserves engagement with their works, it's because there are kids here. Who want to fit in and get praised for their creativity. Which they can only achieve by writing for popular stuff. So maybe take that into account.

#jay rambles.txt #I've met so many kids who have no business knowing that pjsk is considering the Themes it deals with know what pjsk is #and if you want to argue this game is a) a scummy gacha game b) too grim for a lot of them - sure. did that stop YOU for being in #fandoms you shouldn't have been in when you were 12?#yeah I didn't think so. this is very normal and will continue being normal #seeing as the spaces for young kids on the internet have all but been destroyed by every factor imaginable #of course they're not interested in nuance and detailed characterisation as well. they are kids. were you media literate at 10 when you've #just discovered fandoms? like actually? at like 10? cmon now. give them some grace #sometimes when you see another run of the mill poor grammar and no formatting cliche yaoi fic of your otp I need you to stop and think #'wait a minute. is there a non-zero probability this is written by a 10 year old who just found out what fanfic is?' before you get mad #and then just close the tab and move on with your life. as god intended #'why is this misconception so popular!!' because 80% of the 'rui is a cannibal' people are edgy 13 years old who just Do This Shit. peace.#jay with the unpopular takes again hoo boy

...i forgot untitled has probably also tried eating text

#i seriously hope the hollowheads don't experience hunger like normal people tbh though #i THINK most of the stuff with SC eating is bc Minecraft Hunger Mechanics #but man. if poor untitled gets hungry he has probably tried eating all sorts of things #gnawing on the corner of your firefox tab #he's probably still pretty relieved when he discovers the outernet has normal food though #tommy's stickmen tag #tommy's aus #untitled time travel au

that post about drinking a beer by the lake and still opening tumblr except instead of “drinking a beer by the lake” it’s “standing on the santa monica pier watching the sun set” and instead of “opening tumblr” it’s “googling ‘please please please let me get what i want lyrics’”

#and then leaving the tab open for my future(current) self to discover and remember what i did

Ahhh, so he's the neglected illegitimate half-blood son of a merchant from a human-dominant society. Guess that explains a few things.
