using “what were YOU doing at the devils sacrament” to mean “yeah i made an embarrassing reference but you understood it which is also embarrassing” is very funny to me

my favorite part is that absolutely nobody says this except here. so if you use it in public, it’s a dead giveaway that you spent the last ten years on tumblr. but then again, they recognized it, which means they were at the devil’s sacrament

the most disorienting thing thats ever happened to me was when a linguistics major stopped in the middle of our conversation, looked me in the eye, and said, “you have a very interesting vernacular. were you on tumblr in 2014?” and i had to just stand there and process that one for a good ten seconds

I use Tumblr slang in the work chat to see if I can get anyone to out themselves as trash besides me obviously.

what were you doing at the devil’s circle karen?!

let’s be real the best tumblr has EVER looked was the short span of time where you could slap code into posts and we had classics like these

tumblr has never been closer to the core aesthetic and sense of humor of its userbase

Sometimes I can still hear their voice

Breaking: TikTok is better bc it’s more hostile towards humanity

The lack of video content is what kept us here… I thought we all agree that the best feature of this hellhole was and always will be anonymity.

Tumblr’s not asking for my phone number. It’s not going through my contacts to try and connect me with my fucking colleagues. I can come here and talk about whatever I want without anyone ever seeing my face or hearing my voice. I don’t have to censor myself and hide my interests or enthusiasm out of fear of consequences it might have in my real life.

I think the biggest misunderstanding they have of Tumblr is that they think of it as a social media platform when in actuality it’s a blogging platform with social features.
