    It would be so great if all these big “social media” companies just went out of business.

    Tumblr’s administration is hot garbage. I don’t feel bad for them, and neither should you.

        If it was his actual account, I’m pretty sure the engagement level will be about the same. Or even less LUL.

    The users are having a ‘Crab day’ where everyone gives each other crabs to try and help boost the finances. Will be interesting to see if it has an impact
