#the fuck you mean I’ve never reblogged Radical Saturday #I know I generally don’t participate in Tumblr traditions with a periodicity that small but I thought I’d reblogged it *once* #Tumblr traditions #that one post with the thing
#I know I am very late here #my consider-reblogging list piled up a bunch while I was sick and whatnot #(and for that matter I didn’t even *originally* see this post until it was too late to vote) #but what a beautiful piece of history #I especially love the illustrations #The Great Tumblr Apocalypse #surveys #bugs #I wonder how polls will show up in tumblr-utils scrapes #(…oh my god‚ in the new post UI you can edit tags)
{{Polls show up in tumblr-utils scrapes like this:
This is similar to what you’d see visiting the webpage. Almost all of the information is missing, available only through the dashboard view. As such, I will be using cropped dashboard screenshots to display polls here.}}
i love how podcast fandoms have a way of producing fifty million versions of the same character’s appearance and yet you know exactly which character it is every time
especially when there’s practically no canonical description of the character in question
i may not know what cecil “the voice of night vale” gershwin palmer or jonathan “the archivist” sims look like but i sure can tell them apart at a glance
This is a really interesting parallel to art of deities in classical civs (I don’t remember this lecture super well, but I’m trying!) Basically, you could tell which deity the artist was depicting not based on their features, but by their iconography: Artemis would be depicted with a bow, or dogs, or deer, so that you could tell it was her. I’m pretty sure the same concept is in action here! Different characters are depicted with different color palettes and motifs (such as eyes and tape recorders) so that you can tell who it is.
I just think that’s really cool.
Yeah, this. Like I’m not even very far into tma but I still know that it’s
