Well, that was unexpected.

So, late the other night, in a fit of combined whimsy and frustration, I did a thing.

I do not plan on posting anything! I'm just using it to read people whom I cannot read at DW, or who post much more content on Tumblr than on DW. Plus, having a username means I can finally contact Tumblrites who don't have anonymous asks enabled.

Expect much panic, because this platform confuses me greatly. You don't even want to know how long it took me to figure out how to put an icon on there! And I still don't know how to make a profile/about-me/whatever you call it... I settled for a text post, as a placeholder.

Ahahaha, another tumblr holdout gives in...;) I'm elaineofshalott there too. The interface does take some getting used to. Once you do learn to use it, though, it becomes an awful timesink. :p These days I mostly use it when I'm painting my nails--I'll scroll through while I'm waiting for each coat of polish to dry.

Shhhh, I'm still holding out! I'm not posting anything there! :D

It's mostly a placeholder and a way to send the occasional ask. Half the time, when I go look at the Tumblrs I've been reading for months, I don't even bother to log in. I mostly have it because of cypher and ciceqi and askerian, who are technically on DW but seem to post a lot more over on Tumblr; this way I can more easily see what they're doing. (Theoretically. Like I said, at least two of them I've been reading on Tumblr for months without having an account of my own, so we'll see if having an account makes much of a difference to me.)

Currently the only thing I could really see myself using it for is photo hosting, should I suddenly sprout insane amounts of talent in the fanart department (unlikely) or otherwise need to post pictures for something.
