2013 Tumblring

Verb-

(2013 tumb-ler-ing)

Back in 2013, tumblr.com was just getting popular with a younger age group, scene and emo kids, the LGBT+ community, weeaboos , and hipsters . All of these groups combinded made the website a little unstable. Anyone with an opinion would get death threats, anyone who didn't ship two male characters were seen as homophobic, and if you didn't like tumblr then you would get thousands of 13 year old trying to convince you that they know how to hack computers and kill people.

Fandoms such a homestuck , SuperWhoLock , and various different anime became the head of tumblr in 2013. This caused problems, as they often went out of control. Stories people in homestuck cosplay attacking people with buckets (as it is a reference to the comic) and girls as young as 12 sending nudes to the many different adult male actors became common, but we're brushed off by tumblr.

2013 Tumblring refers to the attitude that people had during Tumblr is 2013. Acting like Tumblr is the best and if you disagree then you are wrong. Always being hyper, out of control. and pretending that you aren't responsible for your actions. Even though the website has grown up, there are many people today who are still 2013 Tumblring.

tumblrina

A dramatic, self-righteous tumblr-er who exaggerates prejudice and injustice to victimize themself and tries to make other people feel shitty about existing. Also known as a social justice warrior or sjw, the tumblrina may list ridiculous "triggers" and claim that anyone unlike them has "privilege" and should apologize for being born.

Tumblrinas are also hypocrites, constantly warning people against assuming someone is gender-binary or heterosexual, and then making such assumptions themselves about anyone they talk to.

You know that you're dealing with a tumblrina if you're called "cishet scum", "privileged" or any similar insult that targets your offensive normalcy.

While prejudice is a huge issue, and some words can trigger panic attacks in the severely mentally ill, tumblrinas take these issues and appropriate them to serve their own dramatic agendas.

I have a friend who had gotten to the point that certain words would completely disable them and render them entirely unable to function. THOSE were triggers. So if you have a subject that makes you mildly uncomfortable and you think it's okay to call it a trigger and whine about it on the Internet, FUCK YOU. You have NO idea what a real trigger is. You haven't seen your friend melt down in to a pile of half-shrieking, half-sobbing. You are a little shit who is making it so that people do not take mental illness seriously. So fuck you, fuck your drama, and I hope someday you'll understand the damage you're doing.
Monica loves to tell people how prejudiced they must be because they're white, heterosexual, and cisgender. Everything offends her all the time, and she whines about it on her Tumblr. She's even encased herself in a protective bubble of trigger words that other people have to tag to minimize any discomfort she might feel from having to view anything outside of her tiny, sheltered mindset. What a tumblrina!
