This is really well written post but I also find it very interesting when people talk about tumblr as if it doesn't still exist and doesn't still have a lot of thriving communities. Yes it is not as big as it used to be but there is still a significant user base and a lot of content and memes being created, a lot of which "break containment" and become widespread internet phenomena, such as the goncharov meme from last year.
