23 Tumblr Text Posts From A Different Time

Once upon a time, there was a social media platform that was way more popular and well-known than it is now. Tumblr is a website that was once home to so many young teenagers who were all part of different fandoms. Fandoms are large communities that are based around an actor, TV show, band or just about anything else, and Tumblr was an important place for fandoms to come together. It was also such a customizable site where users could configure their profiles to look exactly how they wanted to match whatever they wanted to blog about and represent their personality.

All in all, it was a great site. Unfortunately with the ban of much of the popular content, among other contentious decisions, Tumblr lost a lot of its steam. It is still widely used though and harbours some great posts and memes. To take a look at the site that has been a little forgotten over the years, here are 25 Tumblr text posts from Reddit's /r/Tumblr that may convince someone to use the site again.

Pika-Clones

onemillionwordsofcrap Follow Nov 10 Nov 10.25 days ago Doylist explanation: They keep making new electric mouse pokemon because they're frantically trying to recreate the success of Pikachu. Or at least because it's tradition at this point. Watsonian explanation: A major predator of rodents is birds of prey. A mouse that can deliver electric shocks to flying-types has a much higher chance of living to produce more offspring. Thus, convergent evolution fills this niche in every region. "Pikachu" is just the pokemon universe equivalent of "crab".

We Don't Talk About It

a-fragile-sort-of-anarchy I was a professional juggler for like five years and all of my friends politely pretend it never happened. a-fragile-sort-of-anarchy Sometimes I will be holding three or more similarly sized objects and they will all shoot me the kind of warning glances typically reserved for cats who are about to swipe a fresh and crispy fish stick from a small child's hand. a-fragile-sort-of-anarchy I gaze wistfully at a basket of apples and they all think, "Don't you F dare," so hard that I take psychic damage.
