This ever happen to you? I dreamt in Tumblr last night.
I walked around the city, covered in little hearts and reblog buttons. I showed my appreciation for a beautiful sunset by reaching out and poking its like button. I saw some delicious tacos, hit reblog, and had some of my very own. This was a world I could live in.
Fast-forward to this morning: I was tired, disheveled, and there was a really pretty girl on the subway. To show my appreciation, I went to push her like button. Didn’t work. Hit it again. Nothing. I tried and tried, but nothing was working right.
Long story short, now I’m in jail. I used my phone call to select today’s five picks:
Gödel, Escher, Bach, Tumblr
GEBT is a book group dedicated to reading one chapter a week of Douglas Hofstadter’s 1979 masterpiece book about artificial intelligence, mathematics, consciousness, puzzles, music, and language. I know what three of those are!Growing up Heroes
I thought this was going to be something like a teenage Clark Kent blogging about how horrible puberty is, but Growing up Heroes is in fact much cuter and much less annoying than that.The Butter Room
The Butter Room is built to spread a passion for live music. This ten-person group posts a ton of great content, including reviews, daily features, interviews with musicians, photos from the road, and of course, some music.The Tickr
The Tickr covers the culture of professional sports fandom. Less about the scores than the athletes themselves, this Tumblr blog focuses on the sights and sounds that make it fun to be a sports fan. Don’t miss their guide to throwing a Super Bowl party.Fuck Yeah Dioramas!
While it’s true that the whole “Fuck Yeah” thing might be getting old, I can’t just sit by and let something as awesome as a bunch of dioramas all gathered together go unnoticed. It’s time to take a stand! Say it with me: Fuck Yeah Dioramas!Who do you nominate for the next episode of Tumblr Tuesday?
It’s Tumblr Tuesday!
