As of today I am officially 19 years old!!

Hosts under the cut :3

Titanfall and its tower defense mode will always have a place in my heart

T2's tower defense was good

But T1's has my heart

This may be a bit naive, because I've been on and off Tumblr many times since 2012, and only really started spending more time on here since 2019

But I saw a post on bluesky yesterday where OP craved an online experience that only seemed to exist in 2012; many commenters agreed, chiming in that nothing could match the novelty of being on Tumblr or Twitter in 2012.

And I definitely agree. That's why I've been telling people who used to be on Tumblr back then to just...come back to Tumblr lol. It has changed since 2012, but it's still fundamentally the same place. It is different than it was, but even back in 2012, it was worlds apart from what Facebook/Instagram/Twitter were; it's a completely different universe from what any of those places are now.

I think that's Tumblr's strength.

I saw another post on Instagram before I deleted it off my phone that this country is gonna go through a kind of quiet revolution over the next decade. And while revolutions include protests and violence, they require a mass disengagement from the existing system. And that needs to happen for people on a personal level.

So if there are enough people (like those commenting on that bluesky post) that don't like this current system of social media/mass communication dominated by Meta/Twitter, they should just disengage.

Delete the apps from your phones and Go On The Computer. Reopen your old Tumblr or start a new one. Visit new websites. Make your own websites! Recreate the 2012 experience. Create the parameters for your own personal revolution.
