why is the merthur tag red??????
Ok at first I was super confused as well! I looked it up on the internet and NOTHING.
Then I looked at the trending tags and saw that all of them are red now! So I thought, "oh, they changed the trending colour"
BUT NO
It's the Valentine's Day update!
All ships and trending tabs are red! Well, all the ships Tumblr acknowledges as such at least, lol
And there's a new heart animation!
Really cute
throwback to when bart stole his classmates dads car and drove it off a cliff. not even the craziest thing that happened in those two issues.
Old drawing that I made in February (I think??)
