I have a question. what’s going on

On 2022-08-19, tumblr user toskarin posted a tweet about Shinzo Abe's death. Most notably, this tweet was from a French source, resulting in several comments accusing toskarin of being French. This accusation was quickly denied and resulted in the current disclaimer "not french" on her blog.

(On 2022-10-25, tumblr user niraksot reblogged one of toskarin's posts. This reblog, along with the rest of the post, is the first known reference to what would later be known as a toskarinlike. It is unknown whether modern toskarinlikes were inspired by this or not.)

On 2023-05-26, a tumblr user going by toskarinfr (now deleted) reblogged one of toskarin's posts with "bonjour madame". This interaction is the first known modern toskarinlike, though the original toskarinfr would eventually deactivate sometime between 2023-07-22 and 2023-12-08.

Following the trend of toskarinfr (after being remade on 2023-12-08), multiple other toskarinlikes began emerging throughout the next few months. The next of these was toskarinpl, made in the style of toskarinfr, but Polish instead of French. While some later toskarinlikes also took on various nationalities, others would go for more varied concepts, such as toskarintetris and toskarintoast (the latter has provided a lore post on their creation as well).

On 2024-02-29, a post was made referencing the "ongoing toskarin cambrian explosion" and heralded a massive acceleration in the creation of toskarinlikes. Twelve of the currently known twenty-six were created during the next 48 hours. That same post predicted a future with "an incomplete fossil record", which resulted in the creation of the Toskarin Archive, whose goal is to prevent such a bleak future from happening.

About the Toskarin Archive

The Toskarin Archive, a 501(c)(3) non-profit, is building a digital library of Toskarinlikes and Toskarinlites in digital form. Like a paper library, we provide free access to researchers, historians, scholars, people with print disabilities, and the general public. Our mission is to provide Universal Access to All Toskarin Knowledge.

We began in 2024 by listing every known Toskarinlike, a form of art that was just beginning to explode in use. Like newspapers, content published on Tumblr was ephemeral - but unlike newspapers, no one was saving it. Today we have over 3 years of Toskarin history accessible through our blog and we work with several other partners through our Tumblr messaging program to identify important Toskarinlike blogs.

Anyone with a Tumblr account can send new Toskarinlikes to the Toskarin Archive. We work with several partners globally to save copies of their work into special collections.

Because we are a Tumblr blog, we only pay attention to other Tumblr blogs. Not everyone has access to the vagaries of Tumblr's search feature, so to provide universal access we need to provide consolidated links to Tumblr blogs. We began a program to digitize this process in 2024 and today we've scanned at least one Toskarinlike in at least one location around the world. Toskarinlikes created in or prior to 2021 are available for viewing, and dozens of them can be viewed through our Toskarinlike Database pinned post. One of the Toskarin Archive's missions is to serve people who have difficulty interacting with physical books, so all of our Tumblr links are available to people with print disabilities.

The Toskarin Archive serves several people each day and is one of the top 500 million Tumblr blogs in the world. A single copy of the Toskarin Archive library collection occupies 2+ Kilobytes of server space (and we store at least 1 copy of everything). We are funded through the generous free use of Tumblr. As with most libraries we value the privacy of our patrons, so we avoid keeping the IP (Internet Protocol) addresses of our readers and offer our site in https (secure) protocol.

You can find information about our projects on our blog (including important Toskarinlikes), contact us, and follow us on Tumblr. Welcome to the library!
