thanks, internet

Tuesday, April 10th, 2018

Look, I realize tumblr has a rep for being sort of the fanfiction.net of social media, but both of them have their benefits. I mean, seeing ff.net’s list of fandoms let me get a trivia question correct in eighth grade French (21 Jump Street, thanks ever so much brain for keeping that bit of info!) […]

“yes, I’ve read a poem”

Tuesday, February 13th, 2018

The Cornell Lab of Ornithology has a live cam of nesting Layson Albatrosses in Kauai, Hawaii. Very enjoyable background to working! And yes, it’s terrifying that google sees all and knows all, but it also means that I can search the phrase “tumblr baby bird is muppet adult bird has eyeliner” and it will *actually* […]

caturday musings

Saturday, February 3rd, 2018

What’s up with those three tumblr posts that pop up all the time? Like, I get all this new stuff, and then there’s the classics that come back every once in a while with new comments, and then there’s the Three Eternal Posts. They show up pretty much every day, and I have no idea […]

Florida ADVENTURE <3

Tuesday, November 7th, 2017

We did not go to the Kennedy Space Center, but we did go to the Kennedy Space Center gift shop in the airport. A thoroughly enjoyable experience! They had Mars Curiosity Rover commemorative coins, which made me tear up because the internet made me love a robot rover, and this is why: 1. that tumblr […]

poetry part 2

Tuesday, October 24th, 2017

Things I’ve learned about my poetry habits today: 1. I’ve shared the same poem/quote three times in three separate years, each time as if it was the first. 2. I once wrote a weird haiku about Michelle Obama and the Queen hugging?! (“I have no memory of this place.”) 3. There were a few other […]

poetry & tumblr

Tuesday, October 24th, 2017

It’s not that I dislike poetry, I just don’t tend to think of it as something I love. (Although an argument could be made that things like tumblr tags are a poetry of their own, and I certainly spend plenty of time reading those.) But there are certain poems I tend to think of, and […]

do it for the vine

Sunday, August 6th, 2017

(I miss ‘do it for the vine.’ It always felt more relatable to me than yolo, which I guess is an interesting commentary on the fact that I think personal gratification is a less compelling motivator than ‘people on the internet will think this is funny.’) But anyway! This vine compilation has made me laugh […]

I’m not crying, you’re crying

Sunday, May 14th, 2017

I have been off and on searching for a half-remembered tumblr post for a while now, and it turns out it was actually two posts that my brain had combined together! 1. The first was some art by Alister Lockhart and some totally spot-on tumblr comments over at Totally Panda Coffee. And heck, even if […]

movie Monday

Monday, April 3rd, 2017

I didn’t watch any movies this weekend, but I did spend a lot of time thinking about the new Power Rangers movie. And since I was just saying how I hadn’t seen any fan art for the movie, tumblr has now proved me wrong! Check out this adorable art by Cahlac!

workaday Wednesday

Wednesday, March 29th, 2017

You know what, I started writing a post about work, and then I got distracted by tumblr (as one does), and I found an epic story of pumpkin spice monkey bread that deserves to be shared so much more than my disorganized thoughts about corporate spending habits. check out this post by unpretty anyway this […]
