Tumblr?
Okay, so I am sure you are all very tired of seeing posts by people going, "Who is Tumblr? What is she, that all our fans commend her?" But! I have a question, brought on by ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
thehoyden, who is, it goes without saying, a terrible person. And so, yes, this is another How Does Tumblr post. Sorry.
See, I have always rejected Tumblr as Not for Me, because walls of text are not welcome there, and I am an entirely text-based creature. And I will probably always be a more or less passive Tumblr user, but - I was considering posting, like, shorter, single-thing recs there. For recs that will never fit in a set! Or whatever! It would still be all text, though. Is that a thing I should do? OPINE AT ME, Tumblr denizens! Assuming any of you still read this text-based medium.

Okay, on a more serious note, do the Tumblr thing if you wish, I'm all for everyone doing whatever makes them happy. I just... don't quite get tumblr. Or, hmm, it's fun for 5-30 minutes of surfing images-only, but the idea of following things on Tumblr makes my head hurt. The formatting of stuff is odd, and there's a certain shortness of posting and phrasing that always makes me feel like I've stumbled into a conversation already in progress.
