Anyone else falling for bits more often than usual lately? Are bits getting better or am I losing my critical thinking?(hexbear.net)

This is either a bit or a child.

This comparison has been made to the point of being cliché, but a big chunk of Twitter is just 2012-2014 Tumblr now.

It hits differently after my 2015 dirtbag radicalization

Fair enough. My timeline is full of people constantly quote tweeting these things and it all kind of blurs together at times.

The “hand-wringing over media consumption” radlib caucus on Twitter is reminiscent of some parts of tumblr as well – the “before you follow” page types
