Here's what's endearing about tumblr
Is the twentysomethings (like me!!!!) in some fledging state of crisis. All the urgency and squishy hot-water-bottle emotions placed in some kind of cyber amber.
Can you imagine what it must be like to be 16 with a livejournal in 2k9? It’s probs all anal sex stories and Miley Cyrus hate memes? Anyways, at least we can buy our own cigarettes and use those SAT words we never needed, you guys.
The best part is, we all feel cutting edge just for being here and are thus obligated to maintain a nominal level of brevity and cleverness. Other blogging platforms let you write about hating yourself and wanting to die, but only tumblr makes you feel like genuine self-deprecation should be involved (as opposed to just a plea for attention) in order to really be justified.
