I wonder if any of the people I am following are ever going to post/blog anything that they have done themselves (besides the obvious people who have already, don’t get defensive, I know who you are). I just prefer not seeing tons of reblogged things. I’m following you because I want to see YOUR things, not someone elses. Or else I would just follow them. I know there is an option to unfollow, I just don’t want to have to use it.
Perhaps your use for Tumblr may be way different for other people’s purpose for it.
