kindly-whisper-norbury:

Soon, Tumblr as we know it will change… but before that happens, I just want to say…

…

Thanks for the mammaries

For the memes that wouldn’t quit

For agreeing to say “I like your shoelaces” if we ever met

–

Thanks for the bad puns

For the emotional support

And for opening our eyes to things we’d never seen before

–

Thanks for incorrect quotes

For the Mishapocolalypse

For all the OTPs that never quite became canon ships

–

Thanks for “the signs as” lists

For the fanmixes and fanfic

And for how a certain imagine could make us squee or squick

–

Thanks for AO3 feeds

For aesthetics and moodboards

For how “what is air?” worked when we were lost for words

–

Thanks for the headcanons

For shoving breadsticks in your purse

And how we never can forget the phrase “take me to snurch”

–

Thanks for the recipes

For how text posts derailed

For gushing about NaNoWriMo even harder when we failed

–

Thanks for SuprWhoLock

For cross stitch, knitting, and crochet

And for how Obama dropping the mic meant there was nothing more to say

–

Thanks for stories in the tags

For smudged writing on your hand

And for how 3AM drunk posts got many more reblogs than planned

–

Thanks for “beeves” and “snoteleks”

For warning that spoilers lay ahead

For how we’d whisper “just one more post”, but never go to bed

–

Thanks for arrows to the knee

For letting us obsess

And for when we agreed to disagree on the color of that dress

–

Thank you for the Science Side

For spoopy Halloween

For Canada, Australia, and for every place between

–

Thanks for “okay, that sounds fake”

For so much lovely art

And for the way a well-made gifset can truly break a heart

–

Thanks for the cute animal posts

For the cauliflower grandad

For the way that Denny’s posts made us think that they’d gone mad

–

Thanks for “follow forevers”

For every eccentricity and quirk

And for what different people thought of as “not safe for work”

–

Thanks for procrastination

For the celebrities we’d roast

For the loyal mutuals who reblogged every post

–

Thanks for hiatus therapy

For “trying to find them in a crowd”

And for letting us tell the world the things we’d never say aloud

–

So I said “thanks for the mammaries”

But what I really meant to say

Was thanks for all the memories that we’ve made along the way
