I have returned after recovering from (moderate-to-large homework assignment that would have been infinitely easier had I not left it until the last… three-ish hours before the deadline? after knowing it was due for over a month?) to say more nice things about people on the internet!

@prophecyformula:

One of your about pages implies that you only follow highly interesting people. This is an excellent strategy because it makes your follows feel important and insightful even if they’ve only sporadically participated in a couple of ask memes since September

You’re really good at finding interesting articles from the Outside World and having thoughts about them. This is why you’re one of my favorite options for archive-trawling. If I accidentally like a post from three weeks ago please do not be alarmed

I’m most familiar with your blog as part of the @xhxhxhx, @lambdaphagy, etc. triad of people whose economics/sociology opinions I may or may not agree with but always enjoy reading. This is an A+ sphere of Tumblr in which to be involved

@sharkyminimalist:

1. pink hair!!! yes this deserves its own point

2. excellent taste in sushi, artsy hobbies, pretty dresses, and Instagram people

3. blog typically has more horses than sharks, despite what one may expect from the title, but they are very excellent horses

4. makes the CUTEST THINGS like omg

5. very fun to hang out with! also apparently people I have actually met in real life get bullet points not sure why this is

@reasonableapproximation:

You have a really pretty Tumblr avatar. I don’t know what it’s of, but it’s always nice to run across it as I’m scrolling through my dash and see it off to the side being all vaguely rainbow-y. This usually isn’t the kind of thing people hope to be complimented on, but avatar choice is important and you have chosen wisely

I don’t know about the approximation part, but the ‘reasonable’ half of your url is definitely applicable to every post of yours I’ve seen.

…This kind of sounds like a ‘damned with faint praise’ scenario, but seriously, reasonableness is one of the few characteristics that all of the writers I admire invariably share; it’s also important and that kind of consistency is admirable

@brin-bellway:

I haven’t posted them because space-conservation reasons, but your compliment meme request was the funniest! So you win on that front! and yes it was a competition this whole time

Your blog seems like a decent source of non-USian news and general Canadian-ish-ness. As your country has just elected an exceptionally cute prime minister, this is an incredibly important feature and I hope to see further updates in the future

I have a hard time finding blogs that contain Tumblr-typical humor without being too Tumblr-humor-y, so your blog is a great resource! Your anything-that-makes-me-laugh-this-much-deserves-a-reblog tag has been instrumental in bringing the Mint Mistake to my attention, for which I owe you my thanks

(I want to use this as a context link, but @floresapriles got force-safe-moded (for some probably-bullshit reason) and is too dormant to try to do anything about that. So, I skimmed through her blog on the dashboard view until I found it (I knew roughly when it was posted, so it wasn’t all that hard to find), and I’m reblogging it here. A link to this post will be showing up shortly, in an aside on a comment roundup.)
