Something that’s hard to articulate, but I think about sometimes when I see Tumblr polls about culture and childhood, is the way you fit into a strange ‘I missed out on this but it was there’ box when you grow up poor.
Like, did you ever have a flip phone? No, but my classmates did. Did you ever play a DS? No, but my classmates did. Which of these classic shows did you watch? We couldn’t afford cable. What was your first video game console? Well, my friend had a Game Cube. Did you have MySpace? We didn’t have internet until I was in grade seven.
I don’t know. It’s just something I think about.
I think it could be cool to put together a board of the top Tumblristas in the world, that could see previews of what's coming up and advise on strategic direction. Who should be on it?
Okay, look. We're gonna do it like this, Matt. I used to work in market research. This one is free, next time I expect a month of free premium and if there's a third time I expect a job.

I wasn't bothered by the change
