The concept of a “real version” of internet content is so interesting to me.
irl museums feel special. Your “This is the real Starry Night” moment feels significant, certainly more significant than just googling the Starry Night and finding the first thing off Google. You already know what the Starry Night looks like before seeing it in the museum. But there’s a certain power to knowing this is the original. Van Gogh crafted *this* with his own hands and people have been admiring *this* for hundreds of years. It’s just special.
It’s the same kind of feeling with World Heritage tumblr posts. Comments like “This is a legendary post, I’ve only seen this in screenshots” are very common. It feels more real than just seeing it screenshotted or copied. It feels like a real piece of tumblr history. It’s wild to realize the original version of the post is still kicking around the internet in its original form.
But it’s not. It’s just a server sharing a copy of the original data and an app rendering it for you. Same process as if you looked it up yourself. Nearly the same process as if you found a screenshot. It might not even be stored on the same physical server as the original upload, depending on how they’ve done maintenance over the years and how many backups they store. The version in front of you is no more real than the screenshots you’ve seen.
Except isn’t it??

The Gimmick Blog mimics gimmick blogs. It's a Gimmick Mimic. Is this a world heritage post?
*The mimic stares at the ask, nervously. How had this person seen through its disguise? It took a deep breath and hid behind another blog.*
What? I've never heard of that. If that's true, I would say yes, but why would a mimic mimic gimmick blogs?

the world heritage post library part of my website is finally done
it's obviously not finished cause it'll never be. and at some point ill add an archive..
but for now it's finished
(btw if you have any links youd want me to add or title changes or maybe alternative threads to already existing posts, feel free to contact me about them. I'd prefer you sent them through github as "issues", but i could take them here too)
anyway here's the link
Looks like ass but that's life
(screenshot under cut. idk why i would want to include a screenshot but firefox allows me to take long screenshots so why not i guess)

every time someone asks me a stupid question at the library internally I’m just like “why would you ask us, a Narnia blog, this”

Every so often I'll see a tiktok or tweet that is just word for word a tumblr post and it has like 80 billion hits or something and I just have to laugh. You owe everything to us.

When someone created a blog called worldheritageposts it took all the fun out of decalring something a world heritage post.
There. I said it.
Like, you are not the arbiter of that, dude. We decide to value extremely random shit as a COLLECTIVE.

superhero romance is actually so fun because what does “I would die for you” mean from a guy who would die for anyone?

Hey so I don't know if you remember this but. In like 2020, when I was 13 years old, I sent you a message about reverse racism I think? Maybe I asked you to tag anti-white posts? I don't remember. I think I brought up Hamilton. Anyway, you understandably responded w/ disgust and 'come on, man' and I like cried for 20 minutes and then got over it. I wanted you to know, now that I am no longer 13 years old and actually have a sense of humor, that A) Can't believe I did that and B) Your response basically kicked me into the present and I became much more understanding and a lot less immature. Obviously I realize now that reverse racism is not a thing. I was being a stupid, insecure 13 year old so if that interaction was still making you lose hope for humanity, know that I am no longer like this... sigh.
omg yes. yes i remember you

My take every see this Tweet. I'm shocked no one has done it yet. It was really tough figuring out what to EXCLUDE from the meme since there's so much shit that goes on here. It's a hellsite, but it's my hellsite.

Good Morning, Good Day, Good Evening or, if you're sleep schedule is as horrid as mine, good night! LHP here, and I'm happy to say that we just got some
BREAKING LAYTON NEWS!
After an agonizing wait since the last trailer from the Level-5 Vision we finally got a new spark of hope at the horizon. Level-5 will be present at the Tokyo Game Show 2023 and already teased us with our favorite tophat wearing, work avoiding, puzzle solving professor, meaning that we can definitely expect some more info about New World of Steam!
The Tokyo Game Show will be held from September 21 to September 24, so keep your eyes open for that time!
