GralunaIsland's 1 Year Anniversary!

I have no clue if it's cringe or not, but I just wanted to celebrate my blog's 1 year anniversary of existence a little!!

On this very day last year, October 21, 2021, I made my first Tumblr post, and it's been such a fun ride ever since.

Not only have I made some lasting, dear friendships because of it, it's just been a blast running it, because, yes, I get to run my mouth on a subject I feel so strongly about, but mostly because it's introduced me to a wonderful community of likeminded individuals and even some who disagree yet are so kind!

Continuing with the celebration, I'm shouting out some of my favorite followers/friends/visitors to my blog as a thank you for your kindness! (so sorry if this is embarrassing you; if it does, just dm me and I’ll edit it right away!)

@youthinkofacoolname My near and dear tumblr best friend, you've been my greatest supporter! Always giving me advice and discussing gr///via so wisely with me, even just chatting about whatever, and always understanding when life keeps me busy, not to mention liking all my posts and just being generally awesome! You're the best!! (Accept it!!)

@walkinginfiction My first amazing Tumblr friend who's very special to me, you’ve been here since the beginning! Even though you’re super busy with life, which is totally understandable, whenever you’re here, you give some of the kindest, most helpful support, and your comments are just so well thought out and intentional!

@pinkoperatorpursepie You're honestly just the sweetest person ever (with the absolutely cutest profile picture!!), always so on top of liking my posts as soon as they're posted. Your loyalty and vigilance mean so much to me! You're seriously one of my favorite followers!

@teamcharlastor You might change your username constantly, but you yourself never change! You’re so fun to talk with and you’re always sending me so many asks with great insight or questions! You’re such a great friend to me! Thank you for helping me keep the Anti gr///via fandom alive with your own posts on your blog too!

@bonnielass23 You've said some of the kindest things to me ever on this blog, and you're so thoughtful in your asks and comments! Your insight is superb! And your fanfics are brilliant! I utterly enjoy reading them; thank you for sharing them with me! Such a sweet person!

@nashadragneel Bestie, you're such a kind, amazing person! We may disagree on certain things, but our friendship is a testament that you can do so and look past your differences and live in harmony! You're a stellar individual!

@meancetosociety You’re such a sweetheart! You're so understanding, and you share your absolutely delightful head-canon and fanfic ideas with me and even ask for my humble opinion! I love talking to you!

@perfectlyimperfectcharacterfan Your insightful comments truly leave me in awe! I appreciate the meticulous attention you give my posts and for sharing your intelligent musings with me! They really have me thinking even deeper into the analyses I post, and I really appreciate how you push me to do so just by simply being a clever, sharp individual.

@nillajinx Last, but definitely not least-- your support really astounds me! You reblog so many of my posts I can’t even keep track! The appreciation I have for you knows no bounds. Thank you so much!

But also, huge thank you to all my followers and to everyone who even just reads my posts! >_<

Continuing on the celebration haha, in honor of 1 year of running this blog, over the course of today, I'll be reblogging some of my most favorite posts I've written over the year. I have no idea if other blogs do this, but if they don't I guess I'll just be the first to start this tradition!

My goal is that it'll let my new followers get a chance to see some of the older things I've written, and maybe some of my old followers will get to reread something they liked.

Lastly, just an update, I'm still getting through all my wonderful asks, so thank y'all so much for your infinite patience with me! Today my family came up to visit me from my hometown, so I don’t have too much time to myself rn, but things are getting done, I assure you (ง’̀-‘́)ง

Thank you all again for the support, and here’s to another year of Anti gr///via content!🎉
