Good things that come from being on Tumblr for 5+ years:

  • By this point, you’ve either found a blog theme that you like or you’ve completely resigned yourselves to the default themes. Either way, you no longer care about your blog theme and that’s the way it should be.
  • You constantly gain a new appreciation for the, like, five followers that have followed you since the beginning.
  • You have a never-ending library of memes in your blog’s archives
  • If you ever need a pick-me-up, you can go back into the depths of your blog and find old content that you never thought you’d see again.
  • You probably never reblog unsourced/reposted art because you’ve been on Tumblr long enough to remember the original post in the first place.
  • A great appreciation for the updates that actually made the site work better (putting the reblog button at the bottom of the page, for instance)
  • A complete apathy to any sort of drama that this site devolves into.
  • You’ve probably discovered XKit by now and are grateful every day of your life.
  • You’ve seen and/or participated in some of the greatest events on this website, for better or worse (Mishapocalypse, the “reblog this if you’re in _______ fandom” posts, “What color is the sky?”, DashCon and the immediate fallout)

Bad things that come from being on Tumblr for 5+ years:

  • Different day, different discourse.
  • You’ve slowly watched people that you’ve followed for years go through eighty blog changes and that cool SuperWhoLock blog you once liked is now a belly-button fetish blog and you have to wonder where it all went wrong.
  • “Guys we literally settled this argument like two years ago why the fuck are we doing this all over again”
  • Living long enough to see people’s opinions on groups, events, and identities completely flip flop in the course of a couple of years.
  • Your block list is a mile long and full of porn blogs
  • Going from thinking that Tumblr was the best website ever to an old, jaded veteran who just wants to post memes is a very hardcore slide and it’s given me whiplash
  • Posts that you really used to like were deleted a long time ago back before deactivation was a thing.
  • Being 18+ years old on this site and knowing that the opinions of most of the users basically boil down to what minors think is social justice but really isn’t. Their hearts are in the right place…but… well, they’ve got a ways to go.
  • Out of the blue, someone will message you about why you don’t post about certain shows anymore and you don’t have the heart to tell them that you haven’t tuned into that show in 4 years.
  • I hate this website let me drink and leave me be.

supporting bi men also means supporting bi men who (heavily) prefer women. it means supporting bi men who end up marrying a woman and being happy with her, while also acknowledging that they are still bisexual men at heart. they arent acting their bisexuality out ‘the wrong way’, because there is no ‘right’ way. what they do with their love lives isn’t any of your business.

same goes for bi women who prefer men and who end up in a happy marriage with a man!!!

One of my favourite geology facts is this: These diagrams are a lie.

The mantle isn’t yellow. Nor is it orange, or red, or brown, or gray, or black.

The earth’s mantle is made up largely of peridotite.

The earth’s mantle is lime green.
