My newest hobby (which should not come as a surprise): Boys I Love. It is the equivalent of the poster-covered walls of a tween girl’s bedroom, except it’s on the web. I will always be (on some level) a tween at heart. This is really what Tumblr is great for.

I’m pretty sure pictures of boys is like 97% of the reason tumblr exists. I also found one recently called Libraryland from which I may never emerge.
Desirae – Oh that one sounds great. Could you share the URL? I’d love to check it out.
Libraryland:

I don’t know how to actually make it a link – sorry.
That’s perfect – thank you so much!
Tumblr makes my head hurt (I don’t understand how it works. Maybe it’s the missing “e,” I don’t know.) but pretty pretty boys and men make it hurt less. ;)
Lisa – it’s just good for archivist-minded people who like to collect things and put them all in one place. If you like to do that sort of thing, I mean.
Interestingly, Dave Grohl is also very high up on Dave Grohl’s “Boys I Love” page.
hahaha
As well it should be.
I love tumblr so much. I’m going through a spell where my brain is acting like a regular cuntbag so it’s so soothing to be able to add pictures to my regular tumblr. And thanks to you I now have a crush one too. This is another of my faves, http://bookshelfporn.com/
JessicaR – we all go through cuntbag phases. For me, it’s like my version of a scrapbook – or the books I keep where I compile quotes I like. It’s a good thing for someone like me, a librarian’s daughter, to have everything in its place.
I love that bookshelf one – I’ve seen that, and it’s to die for.
So is Tumblr just for photos? I’m not sure I understand it either- how it is different from a blog. Either way, love the photos. I kept scrolling and aha! there is Alexander Hamilton. :)
Oh Sheila, you picked the good ones, fer sure. That Gary Cooper didn’t look anything like him – must have been really young then.
