ok this is insane but like.. the new tumblrinas are more acclimated to the culture than some normal users. i mean it. like every single reddit refugee post has an INSANELY CLOSE like to reblog ratio and there all mutualing each other and sending each other asks and dms. like wtf. how are you better at this.
in all seriousness i think its because we welcomed them with such feral delight. like every single tumblr user individually saw the reddit refugees and were like “ok listen. we love you honey and hope you’re feeling good and here are the instructions” and they did SO MUCH MORE THAN WE THOUGHT THEY WOULD!!! AND NOW ALL OF THEM ARE LIKE HAVING SO MUCH FUN AND IM SO HAPPY FOR THEM!!!!
and also not to keep going but i adore how everyone is so so emotional about this. like every single reddit refugee is like “oh my god why are you so nicee i havent felt this happy in years holy fuckkk…” and were all like “its ok!!! im so glad you are having fun you are doing such a good job yknow? youre perfect at this!!” anyways if YOURE a reddit refugee lets be mutuals

Youre telling me the bartender is a mouse? Shes a girl whos a mouse? *chuckles warmly* That’s pretty out there. I’m too old for that kind of thing, but you have fun with that. *to myself after you walk away, but with no trace of spite in my voice* A bartender who’s a mouse… what will they think of next?
