lesbians don’t need to write epic poetry, gay men don’t need to invent the computer, black women don’t need to work for NASA, jewish people don’t need to write famous comics or invent baseball, trans people don’t need to be famous doctors or screenplay writers or musicians, autistic people don’t need to prove the theory of relativity, to be an important member of society deserving of love and respect and care.

i really miss tumblr and i’d love to revive this blog (but not as a dnp blog lol that stage of my life is over) i just really miss the community and stuff yeah yeah you’ve heard all of that before. 

anyways.

1. start a new blog

pros: new beginning, i’d be able to have a clean slate, i wouldn’t have all the dnp stuff on my blog (i still like them, but i don’t really want to be a primarily dnp blog if that makes sense), i wouldn’t have only dnp on my dash

cons: i’d have to completely rebuild an audience and i wouldn’t have all the same mutuals unless i went around and told everyone i’m friends w to follow my new blog

2. keep the old blog, rebrand

pros: same mutuals, same followers, no need to rebuild

cons: all the old dnp stuff would still be there and my dash is onlyyy dnp rn. also i really like my theme on here rn and even if i never use this blog, i’m a nostalgic person and i’d love to have it around

you guys are smart, help me decide?
