It’s only the second ever Tumblr Tuesday, but I hope we can all agree that our lives will never be the same after the past week. On a personal level, not only did I find some awesome new Tumblrs to follow thanks to all of your fantastic nominations, but I’ve also learned that my options for having bacon delivered to my apartment are rich and abundant. So, quite a big week all around.
And now, the Tumblrs you’ve all been waiting for…
This Shot Is Bananas
Banana Surprise! puts forth a seemingly simple premise: Get a banana, toss the banana to an unsuspecting friend or stranger, and take a photo of the confused banana recipient. Make no mistake, there’s genius at work here. The authors of this Tumblr did their homework, proving once again that bananas have been scientifically proven to be the funniest fruit in existence. (PROTIP: Kiwis are a close second.)
Golly Yes Prepubescent Organisms
Fuck Yeah Baby Animals takes the reader into the lives of a group of impoverished young artists and musicians struggling to survive in New York’s Lower East Side during the… Actually, wait. No, my mistake. That’s the plot of rock musical Rent. FYBA has baby animals. Really, really cute ones.
Through Sandwich-Colored Glass
Scanwiches fills a void I never knew existed. I love sandwiches, but I never realized that one can appreciate a sandwich in more ways than simply by eating one. It turns out that in addition to being a delicious form of sustenance, sandwiches are beautiful, nay, sexy creations. In fact: BRB, hoagie.
Ich Bin Ein Tumblr
GermanHeit is not, despite what you may believe, a Tumblr devoted to photoshops of German people in funny situations. It is, in fact, a Tumblr devoted to the German language and German culture. This is fantastic for two reasons. First, it’ll teach you to speak German. Second, you won’t feel guilty about spending all day on Tumblr, because you learned German.
Encourage, Inform, Inspire
Switching gears, To Write Love On Her Arms: On The Road is the official road team blog from the fine people at TWLOHA, an inspirational non-profit movement dedicated to finding help for people struggling with depression, addiction, self-injury and suicide. You are not alone, and this awesome and engaged community is proof.
