In the modern era, Tumblr is sort of an oddity of the internet. It’s kind of a throwback. A relic, almost. It has the sort of quiet intimacy that used to thrive on sites like Xanga and LiveJournal, for instance.

And in an era when social media standardization and website-builder templates rule the majority of the web, Tumblr still has that odd charm of being infinitely, even obnoxiously, customizable, like MySpace was in its prime. In a time where nearly all social media feels performative, going to someone’s Tumblr page still sort of feels like walking into their bedroom. Reading their posts still feels a little like peeking into their personal journals.

All that is to say, it’s a unique place to hang out. It has a great vibe. And a pretty much endless string of amazing moments that get captured and passed around like folklore. Here are just a few such moments, gathered for your enjoyment.
