Calling all data nerds! Tumblr's 2023 Year in Review is here.

Are you aching to get your hot little hands on 52 weeks of Tumblr data around original posts, likes, reblogs, and searches, all weighted and ranked and tied up into categories with a nice little bow on top? Well, today’s your day!

Find a hammer, smash the "see more" link below, and have your mind blown by the intersection of math and pop culture.

i forgot how unhinged and plot heavy tcp is. like literally jude is sleep deprived and STRUGGLING and waiting for a moment to just sit down and process everything. its really fun and kind of fast-paced but most importantly ITS FUN TO READ. go read tcp if you havent already and like/want to get into reading ya. (gonna add the disclaimer that this book is like, REALLY background with the main romance of the series. the romance isn't even a subplot. the romance present in the book is, well....)

this video is cool to watch, at the very least. helps you sift through the action of the book if you're struggling with that.

Yes I love the idea of Russian Viktor and my head cannon is that he is talking about his fillings and thoughts in Russian because he just can’t let it out loud and this is only way he can.

As well New year is in an hour! Congratulations to everyone, wish you all the best!!

love you 🙆‍♀️

SPY X FAMILY SEASON 2 (EP. 5)

More stuff on the garden because it very much deserves to be talked about and appreciated!

While there's a lot going on visually, our attention was directed to two plants in particular: the Erica flowers and the winged spindle tree.

Erica flowers, also known as heath or heather, are blooms of many colors that are commonly associated with good luck and protection. They're also symbols of love and even of familial affection, with pink and purple flowers being associated with feelings of passion and romance and of admiration and beauty, respectively.

While I can't find much in terms of symbolism on the winged spindle tree, a quick search showed me that it's also called "burning bush" due to the red hue of its leaves and it reminded me of this story about the prophet Moses and how God appeared to him in a burning bush. During this interaction, God tasked Moses with the mission of leading his people away from a life of persecution and slavery into a life of freedom and prosperity.

But in the context of SPYxFAMILY, what could they mean?

I think the winged spindle tree represented Yor's mission during the Cruise Arc: she was chosen by Shopkeeper to protect Olka and her son as they attempted to escape the clutches of the Ostanian underworld to live a life of peace in a neutral country. On the other hand, the Erica flowers represented Yor's ever-growing feelings for her family. To me, her noticing these flowers first reflected how, during the mission, a lot of her focus was on thoughts of her family being on the Princess Lorelei. Shopkeeper pointing out the winged spindle tree corresponded to his and McMahon's efforts to get Yor to focus on and to prioritize her mission. Which, to Yor's credit, she does try very hard to do. But this parting shot of the Erica flowers hinted at how, despite her efforts, the Forgers would always be on the back of her mind.

A less focused but still very prominent element of the Garden scene are the leaves. Like, okay, obviously they're everywhere since it's a literal garden. But I do think these leaves—in particular, the falling leaves and the ones being pruned off by Shopkeeper—say something about Garden and its approach to the world.

Where there is life, there is also death, and a garden is not exempt from this. To me, the leaves are symbolic of people and their removal from their tree/shrub/bush is symbolic of death. Where the falling leaves are the people who are lost due to accidents and natural causes (i.e., forces of the world that cannot be controlled), the pruned leaves are the deliberate deaths. In the world of SXF, these are the targets or "customers" Shopkeeper and his assistants tend to so that they can maintain the beauty of this world.

What I find interesting is that despite Yor being a rose in our eyes, Shopkeeper might very well see her as just another leaf. A loyal and reliable leaf, but still a leaf. And as long as the shears are in his hands, she's a leaf that could just as easily be pruned if he decides it's necessary.

Help, I can't take it anymore 😭
