Writer's Block: You and me and baby makes three

Oh, what the hell, Livejournal? What kind of inane, misogynist question is this? Were you wistfully wondering why there wasn't enough eugenicist talk lately? Did you think that women needed to be reminded that our bodies are never considered to actually belong to us? Did you just feel that it was a good time to have a rip roaring classist, misogynist, ableist party?

You're not even trying. Just throwing out questions wrapped in fake edginess and inviting your readers to show the worst of themselves to the world.

Seriously, stick to the fluffy questions. Don't bring anyone's human rights under debate. It's sickening.

could you maybe...walk me through tumblr a little bit? just a few sentences? i started one the other day and i follow lisa...how exactly do i find other people to follow? do you have any recommendations?
i really like the threaded comments here on livejournal (or dreamwidth) but it's basically a dinosaur at this point.
i want to go where the cool kids are. heh.

I am terrible slow about my tumbling, but if you get more active people to follow you can see what they have to say and respond to them (like, reblog, quote, etc).

I'm guessing you understand how to follow people? Clicking the button at the top that says "follow"? :)

And if you want to find other people to follow, see what people you already follow reblog, and click on the username of one of the other posters. That will lead you to their tumblr site, where you can read more of their posts. If you like what you see, you can follow them!

For example:

I follow 111 people, not all of which are politically-minded. Some of them post like...hipstery-y stuff (triangles and shit, idgi), some post fandom stuff, like tv show screencaps, and some are what I call "fan tumblrs", which are like...tumblrs devoted to a certain celeb/character/relationship. I run several, because I had no life during the summer (I don't update them nearly as much as I used to, which makes me feel bad). And yes, some are politically-minded/activist-y type blogs.

My favorite activist tumblr was ihatethismess, but I think she deleted hers for some reason. :( She's really well-informed about issues of intersectionality and multiple oppressions.

Oh boy, I think I wrote way too much here. D: I hope you get it?
