I deplore in myself my occasional inability to take criticism (I do take criticism from the people I love but I find it extremely difficult to allow people who don’t know me to ever criticize how I come across) – I get very, very easily defensive and I am aware that it can get annoying. I deplore in others neediness, narrow-mindedness, lack of conscience, intrusiveness and insensitivity.

I think they look like human souls.
You’re right. They do look like human souls. Twisted souls. Regular Souls. Crazy souls. All depending on the kind of lives human beings lead.”

Anyway the last point I have to make here is that even if tumblr breaks under the algorithm (almost certain if they don’t back out of using it) and/or everybody leaves… I don’t have anywhere else to go or post things
people like to joke about it being bad, but I legitimately really like Tumblr. it actually feels like a blogging platform in a world where facebook and twitter are active political weapons that manipulate us elections. i don’t feel like i’m baring myself to content i don’t want to see here, or having to engage with a popularity-focused culture. the content isn’t sorted to influence you or trick you. it’s a bunch of people being themselves on their own terms. it’s oldnet.
yes, i do use other websites, but i’m not interested in posting personal things to any of them. this was a place i had control over and i’ll stay with it until i can’t. and when that happens there’ll be nothing left.

Be not comforted. Consolation is not what you need. Weep and be not consoled, but weep.
