so basically it means privileged white people in their 20s? what does that have to do with tumblr?

the late great, Wednesday, 4 December 2013 17:06 (ten years ago) link

those are nice tumblers

the late great, Wednesday, 4 December 2013 17:06 (ten years ago) link

Only privileged white people use tumblr

乒乓, Wednesday, 4 December 2013 17:08 (ten years ago) link

privileged white people are the only people to do a lot of things (listen to vampire weekend for example ;-)), seems weird to pick out tumblr

My Chief Keef Keef (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 4 December 2013 17:36 (ten years ago) link

like i know you are in animal collective with max and gr8080 so you're viewpoint might be skewed a bit

Anyway if you were being serious here flopson, there's plenty of POC on tumblr as well

Take it from one who uses it

Again, unlike ILM...

Haha, just kidding. Plenty of POC on ILM too

Lots who choose just not to make it a thing

I didn't either at first

乒乓, Wednesday, 4 December 2013 17:45 (ten years ago) link

i meant, like, agewise

flopson, Wednesday, 4 December 2013 17:50 (ten years ago) link

Oh, yeah. Tumblr is definitely not for olds. Lol olds. Why do they even exist.

乒乓, Wednesday, 4 December 2013 17:51 (ten years ago) link

ya its more like myspace or something. most of them aren't aware of it and if they did become aware of it they would be like "oh okay" and not think about it again

flopson, Wednesday, 4 December 2013 17:53 (ten years ago) link

tumblr is funny though, its simultaneously about curating your own special snowflake and about re-posting everything everyone else posts

i think that's maybe what whiney was aiming for by invoking "tumblr whites"

can't believe u thought i thought u were white

As snowflakes tumble through the air, swirling and spiraling, they each take a different path to the ground. Each snowflake falls and floats through clouds with different temperatures and moisture levels, which shapes each snowflake in a unique way.

Anyway I propose that 'tumblr white' be replaced with 'The Onion A/V Club white". All in favor, say aye. Aye. Okay, done

i'm glad that whiney found av club. best scapegoat for his meta paranoid internet generational critique. all the previous gloves just didn't quite fit right. it's like a match made in heaven.

flopson, Wednesday, 4 December 2013 18:13 (ten years ago) link

who was alex's zing aimed at?

If memory serves, someone accused me of crafting a thread that was less than original and told me to "go home to my wife and kids." One could credibly argue that I overreacted to this.
