The number in italics indicates how many spots a name moved up or down from the previous year. Bolded names weren’t on the list last year.

It’s humbling to be at #1. I’m all alone in a house in the Scottish Highlands otherwise I would hug somebody. But it’s only me.

It’s been a big 52 weeks on Tumblr. 

Maybe it was all part of a great big ineffable plan, but Good Omens was the most popular thing on Tumblr in 2019. Bigger than BTS by exactly 4.43%, but who’s counting? As for BTS…well, they deserved a break, but it did cost them the crown. Meanwhile, Marvel had a huge year. We could try to count how many Marvel-related tags are in Year in Review, but it’d definitely be at least 3,000. Steven Universe came to an end as a series, but came back as a beautiful feature-length film; the future’s looking bright. And how many SKAM remakes will make the TV list this year? There are two on this one—we see you, Germany and France. Game of Thrones also reached its conclusion (did we actually sit through all of those seasons for THAT?). Moving on to the Galar Region, Pokémon gave us the biggest gift of the summer: Wooloo. Thank you, Nintendo. Critical Role returns to this list after a long adventure with the Mighty Nein across Wildemount. And finally, we round things off with the Ship of the Year, our Ineffable Husbands, Aziraphale and Crowley. This is Tumblr’s Week Year in Review.

Un dimanche après-midi à l'Île de la Grande Jatte St. James Park

clandestine meetings, anyone? my attempt at recreating Georges Seurat’s Un dimanche après-midi à l'Île de la Grande Jatte/A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte. i tried my best but pointillism is so very hard to mimic.

I realized my laptop screen ruin the colors so I cannot color the comic at home, gotta finish it at work tomorrow. 

Aziraphale:”Explain”

Crowley:”Relatively useless but they still make you smile when you push them down the stairs”

Aziraphale:”Is this you telling me you’re gonna push Gabriel down the stairs?”
