Feb. 3rd, 2011 09:42 amSomewhere, in something I've read, there's a bit where all these ballerinas show up to somebody's apartment for morning tea, and the author says something like: "Suddenly, it was May." tumblr is a bit like this. I'm twice the age of some these kids. What a pleasure to be communing with the future; they're keeping me young. My very favourite thing, though, is when they share their parents' reactions to their fandom, which are often very funny. This sort of thing.
