Tumblr Rant. Jul 23

"I have 100 followers on tumblr!" "Oh yeah? I have 600."
"Guys. I have 2,000."
Well you know what? I don't. But I'm glad for the ones I have. Because I never thought a person's worth should be measured by the followers they have on a social media site. What I do think though, is that it's really awesome that I have people out there that randomly decided to follow me without me having to bribe them with follow backs and such. I think it's really sweet that 15 people out there somewhere, decided to allow my stupid posts to spam up their already busy dashes, and that those 15 people out there actually care to see my stuff. This handful of people didn't have anything to gain from following me, I'm not famous or a cute potential date from their local town, I'm not rich or some genius that can solve people's problems. I don't have "connections" or some crazy talent. Heck, I'm probably not even entertaining at all. But those people that don't know me, that know practically nothing about be, that have nothing to gain from me, are sticking with me and quietly, patiently letting my life in tumblr posts flood their dashes, they stick with me through thick and thin, on my good days, and on my bad. When I reblog random funny stuff I like or when I post nothing but gloomy depressing things for a week straight. I think it's pretty cool that they put up with all that, and that they're still there. Yeah, I don't really have many followers compared to some people. But I would be happy even for one. And I have even more than one; I have 15 of them. That's 15 people out there that have already done so much more than my family, or most of my "friends"... And it means a lot to me. Thanks guys ❤
