Long time, no see

Thanks to Hannibal fandom, I've finally given in to the horrifying new world that is tumblr. I resisted for so long, but if I want to be involved, I know I have little choice. I've written a few things for that fandom--a couple short fics, and one long fic that's nearly finished (and OMG, IDEK what to do with myself, it's sort of incredibly popular, like on the first page of AO3 Hannigram by kudos and comments, wtf is this??!?)
Anyway, if any of you are on tumblr and into Hannibal (or any of my other random fandoms) please look me up. It would be great to see some familiar faces over there! Same name as here: http://moku-youbi.tumblr.com/
Hope to see some of you!

On the one hand, it is an amazing fandom and everyone's so nice, but on the other hand, the exchanges with them just aren't very meaningful, and it's hard to keep motivated and continue communicating when it's such a pain in the ass (and I still haven't figured out the "rules" about when to reblog and when to privately answer, and when to comment and shit, so I always worry that I'm doing it wrong)

Oh man, that would be amazing if LJ made a comeback! (and just my luck, lol, right as I give in and go over there). I just don't think tumblr is somehow any better for sharing things, I guess? Like, how hard is it to click a damn link someone put on their livejournal?! And within a fandom, it's obnoxious that pretty much EVERYONE reblogs the same shit, so your dashboard gets spammed with the same things over and over. And there are people I follow who post upwards of 100 things a day, and I've had to put their usernames in tumblr savoir so I can even LOOK at any other content from other people.
I just think the interface sucks, and it's been around long enough, there's no good excuse for it (how ridic that there are no filter options and people have to use extensions to make tumblr functional?!).
I know, I know, all complaints, blah. It just confuses me how quickly fandom flocked over there, and how long people have stayed. If I had any other choice, I'd have said "fuck this."

once again, tl:dr, how are you? Are you still working on the plan for gay/trans youths? I thought that was so awesome. I'd love to do something like that!
