Getting to Know Your Fellow Tumblrs
((gotta get this done now or else I'll forget about it and never do it like all those other memes I've been tagged in orz))
I was tagged by my darling beesjohn
1) Why did you choose your URL?
It is both a play on my initials (SED) and a shout-out to one of my fave characters ever: Edna Mode from The Incredibles
2) What is your middle name?
3) If you could own a fairytale/fictional pet, what would it be?
I've always wanted a Hippogriff!
Varies from day to day between blue and green
Fuck no I can't choose (I've recently been listening to Take me to Church on loop but that doesn't really mean anything; I always cycle through songs)
6) What are your top three fandoms?
Hetalia, Free!, The Hobbit/LOTR I guess?
7) Why do you enjoy tumblr?
I enjoy being on tumblr because I get to share my interests with lots of other amazing people and make wonderful new friends. For real, through tumblr I've met someone who offered me a place to stay when I was traveling (despite never having actually seen each other's faces before then), met people with whom I semi-regularly exchange letters (because why not, getting and writing cards is super fun!), met several someones who have offered words of comfort and support and wisdom when I was feeling down or upset, met the people behind the fanfics and fanart I enjoy so much, met people from all corners of the Earth through whom I've learned about different countries and cultures... Getting tumblr is what enabled me to come back into more regular contact with my high school best friend and reforge our connection stronger than before after having sort of lost contact during college. Getting tumblr has somehow resulted in me stumbling into a group of huge nerds FROM MY OWN CITY WTF HOW CONVENIENT; people who think like me and understand me and with whom it is not weird in any way to discuss which fictional character is taking which other fictional character's dick up the ass and while there are still some kinks I need to iron out I can genuinely say they are some of the closest friends I've ever had and I have amazing fun with them <3
For me, tumblr is a place of connection; connection to my fandoms and other areas of interest to me, connection to my friends; connection to people I have never met but who share my interests and are eager to talk about them, and that is what I love about it
8) Tag all 9 of your tumblr crushes (they do all 8 questions too)
There are a few people among my crushes I don't know well enough/don't feel comfortable tagging so I'll just choose some other people :3
