Stop curating, start creating.

I think I’m done reblogging. From here on out, it’ll be primarily my stuff. I’m done with the “click Reblog, click Create Post” nonsense.

Tumblr’s strength is in its users’ creativity and original posts (text, media, etc.). That’s what I enjoy most here, and that’s what I’ll be doing more of to bring out the best in this platform.

I’ll also be cutting down on following those who “only reblog” because there are far too many of these blogs and everyone should get out there and create. Any asshole can reblog/curate. But we all need to nurture our creative sides more.
