sometimes i'll watch a commentary vid on yt talking about 'toxic tumblr culture' and what not, and i'll just be bemused about some of the things they talk about, and most of the comments will be other people who are like 'yeah i remember this side of tumblr' and maybe i've just been in a cocoon on here for the past 10 years, but honestly i barely know any of the things they're talking about lol

#personal #like this isnt me saying i havent noticed some bad things on this site because oh BOY #but the way they talk about certain communities and stuff #that are now re-emerging on places like tiktok or twitter i'm like huh wait what what did i miss??#it's honestly like some of the 'insane tumblr moments' y'all talk about on here i was just completely oblivious to pfft #like even dashcon which happened when i was still blogging a lot on here #i barely remember seeing much about and was v confused by the ballput memes for literally weeks lol #idk lol...#i suppose what i'm saying is that social media is kinda what you make it #and seeing some youtubers blaming tumblr for these harmful communities when it was really only a section of this site is frustrating lol #i would say tho a vid that mina le did about a certain kind of 'tumblr girl' (one i hadnt actually heard of btw)#was rly interesting because she went beyond just the webbed site and explained the history of the trope #idk idk i think i'm just sick of everyone not on tumblr for complaining about this site #when for me it has honestly been one of the most fun and loving socials #ignore my ramblings lol
