Before I joined Tumblr, I had the impression it was a bunch of bitchy 15-year-olds barely interacting and reposting innumerable pictures of hot guys. After I joined Tumblr, I discovered I was exactly correct. Still, barely interacting is easy, I like looking at hot guys, so it's been all right, although after you see approximately 15,000 pictures

The Sebastian Stan, wtf? I'd had a nice dashboard of maybe forty new posts a day, then I followed two Stan stans--just two--and suddenly there were over a hundred new posts per day, spamming the hell out of my dashboard with all the pictures--good ones, bad ones, dumb ones, every one. I finally had to unfollow one of them, and it's settled down quite a bit. I mean, I like the guy, a lot! But there IS such a thing as too much of a good thing.

Tumblr is also nice if you like pictures of nature, pets, weird weather, art, architecture, and in my case, ships and sailing.

So true! I see some beautiful photographs, and some gorgeous fanart for fandoms I'm not even part of but that are exquisite to look at. I also ended up following someone for posts in one of my fandoms, but all she posts lately are gifs from Fallout 4, something I never thought I'd be interested in, but holy crap, they're amazing. It's so great when you can find a new interest, or rather, when it finds you. Your specific interests (libraries, collections, &c.) sound awesome!

And YES, jumping in and out is so great--Tumblr is really low-pressure that way, as opposed to lj and facebook, platforms where you really interact with people. There have already been a number of people I followed whom I unfollowed just because at a certain point it was like, "I've seen enough of that." I enjoyed it while it lasted, but suddenly knew I was done.

I'm so psyched about the music project. I just finished it tonight! I'm thinking of asking her if there are any unclaimed songs from the album so I could do another one, because it was SO FUN.
