I will follow you into the dark.

I like when I am scrolling down my dashboard and I come across a piece of writing, and read it and like it, and I realize that I know exactly who wrote it without seeing the picture icon to the left, or the name that is at the top of the post because that person has his or her own identifiable style.

I dislike when I am scrolling down my dashboard and I come across somebody begging for attention by posting a link to their ask box because they are incapable of answering questions without you sending them a message of a number or a symbol. Worse is when they are in the mood to talk, but they refuse to take the time themselves to start conversation by sending one of their followers a message first.

I like when I am scrolling down my dashboard and I come across a new photograph, drawing, or even a GIF that I can trace right back to the original blogger without even looking at the user’s information that has posted it because I have become familiarized with their unique artistic perspective. 

I dislike when I am scrolling down my dashboard and I come across a generic picture or a GIF with thousands of reblogs that you are not even the original creator of and it interrupts my flow of content I actually wish to see on this website and then I wonder why I even follow your blog because all it is is a copy of an imitation. 

Post Notes

  2. alyomalley said: I understand your point about “reblogs” and how there’s very little original content on tumblr. But I also think you’re misunderstanding what tumblr is. (Apparently there’s a word limit on replies, so there will be a few of these)
  3. cuffs-n-collars said: maybe they’re not “begging” for attention, they just want a little attention you know. it’s not a bad thing really, to want a little bit attention then we usually get unless you’re justin bieber or other overrated celebrities out there.
