I know that app is cooked but I’m singlehandedly holding down the moodboard aesthetic there 😮💨

Also dude I am Forever enamored by the imagery of sissy spacek wearing a coat of pigs blood under a haze of film and that pretty sheen of prom lights. . this screencap in particular feels like goodbye horses coming on, and you just bought a pack of fresh smokes...
I hate that Cause i always wanna save em for a special occasion but I swear that they look at me and beg. American spirits are giving me the eyes and a mental illness is calling my name.
You just gotta let the night take you. and it will.

I’ve been on Tumblr since 2008. I had a blogspot for a while, which stills exists except none of the images were properly embedded so it’s just like, a bunch of text saying things like “i love this picture! i want to kiss somebody! I love music!” Tumblr is, in my opinion, the best social media site out there. It feels like the only place where images and information are passed around, saved and shared in a really earnest and personal way lol. I know twitter sort of works this way, too but I’m just not a twitter person, as much as I’d love to be. It’s also just a really lovely way of saving reference media, and it’s as anonymous as you want it to be. I love to use my tumblr as a mood board for my life. People are also soooo funny on tumblr, and I love the dashboard layout, it’s so soothing to me lol..but maybe it’s soothing because i’ve been using it as a comfort since I was, like, 12. I am rooting for tumblr to survive for as long as possible. Follow me @grossives it’s not that interesting but I give you full permission to scroll back to 2012 when I was reblogging cobra snake pictures of models, and flash photos of crystal blue pool water lol.

florinegrassenhopper riotgrrrl brendanooooo slowdazzle buck_mcgraw and indianjones — we did it. Not only did we successfully meet for drinks, but we also schemed the hostile takeover of this app from tyler tonight.
In all seriousness — weird that an app I downloaded in April would make genuinely want to drive back into Brooklyn during end of day traffic for a happy hour. Great app filled with great people.

I feel like there’s a special connectivity on this app that I haven’t felt in a long time, maybe since early 2010’s tumblr. The fact that you can’t promote yourself like IG is wonderful. The fact that there isn’t mass video content like Tik Tok is great. It’s not this monetized / paid sponsorship app. People are here because they want to be a part of something with nothing to gain besides friendship. Seeing the URL -> IRL meetups warms my heart so much (waiting for an NYC or Brooklyn meetup).
Thanks for your participation on this niche little app. I smile reading all the recs and all the comments and all the asks. Hope we’ll all be here for a long time.

I think a life rule for me is to surround myself with people who know more / are smarter / are cooler than me and just absorb their aura by listening / observing them. It’s made me the incredibly smart / cool person you all know and love.
I just never thought I’d feel the same way about URL friends. I’m constantly listening to the songs I see posted here, reading the articles, subbing to newsletters, and googling topics that get tossed onto the feed.
It’s nice to know you can become a more rounded person by just absorbing what your mutuals post on here. I’m going to sit on my couch, have a cocktail and digest my lovely feed. Happy Sunday!
