I feel like, when I respond to something on Tumblr (whether through reblogging-with-additions or through an actual comment feature which happens sometimes), that my comments are just getting lost in the ether. And then on odd occasions someone WILL actually respond to my response, and it's always a little shocking. I don't know, it seems like a sort of NOISY concept, Tumblr, like people are just throwing their thoughts out into the world and people are passing them around without really slowing down and taking any of it in. I guess Twitter's even worse in that respect, but at least there you can actually have a back-and-forth conversation.

I think maybe people FIND like-minded people on Tumblr, and then they just communicate directly? Maybe? No, maybe not? I have no idea where people discuss things, either.
