I find it so interesting the parallel of what's going on on Tumblr versus on (my side of) Tiktok rn. On here we have the Goncharov resurgence, everyone contributing to the bit with fanart and in-depth analysis and all sorts of content. Then on Tiktok there's the 'dabloon economy' and more and more people are making elaborate posts role-playing things like 'president of the dabloon economy' and cat characters running a dnd style inn with wares and everything.
In both, we have people contributing to a bit and actively role-playing to keep it going. At the same time. And I don't think either is aware of the other. The internet just collectively decided now is the time for shenanigans and I love to see it.
