Dear Tumblr,

soulcookie:

I would like you to explain Tumblarity.

I would like you to explain how normal, consistent interaction with Tumblr can subject a Tumblelog to wild swings of hundreds, if not thousands, of points within a span of hours.

I would like you to explain the secret sauce^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H algorithms that you’re using to determine our Tumblelogs’ “value” in the Tumblrverse.

I would like you to explain why you still apparently think this is a good thing, and why you’ve been silent about it.

I would like you to explain these things, and I don’t think I’m alone in wanting this.
