I think so. I hope my page remains but I cant be sure. I need to find a way to export my blog that doesnt require hella memory and time (lmk, if u know how)
I will say, the vibe here atm is affirming, considering all other site updates and subsequent exoduses have been met with an air of cynicism that I never did like. it seems like now ppl are being honest abt the importance of what this site meant to them. obviously it’s not that serious but a lot of folks are lying to themselves by acting like it never really mattered
my time here spans a decade. Except for the annual hiatus… I never deleted, never remade, never even changed my username lol. it’s kind of gross when I think about how much time I devoted to tumblr but it is what it is. I was fresh out of high school, just starting college when I started tumblr and the user experience was everything i needed. it was the perfect platform to share my art and writing. being in an artistic and mostly queer space really elevated my work and helped me come into my own tbh. I learned sfm and connected with amazing people.
I was a kid when I started and now I’m old bitch! my archives chronicle almost the entirety of my twenties…wild. I figure this is a sign to move on. tumblr has contributed to my avoidance in a lot of ways because I got here what I was too scared to seek irl. and that’s the real tea. so maybe it’s time to like actually close this chapter and finally go outside
