meme of the year i’d say

Reblogs, likes, replies, @mentions—these interactions already show up on your desktop activity screen. You knew that. What you might not already know is that you can now filter different activity types on mobile.

Want to see @ mentions, replies, or reblogs separately on the go? Simply tap “All Activity” in the app, and pick from the drop-down menu that appears. Want to see how folks are interacting with your post about frogs in the kitchen? It’s all here—choose the “Custom” option and tailor your activity screen to suit your lifestyle. That’s really all there is to it. ✨

Thank you for all of the amazing questions! You can catch The Harder They Fall in theaters and on Netflix.

How will the James Webb Space Telescope change how we see the universe? Ask an expert!

The James Webb Space Telescope is launching on December 22, 2021. Webb’s revolutionary technology will explore every phase of cosmic history—from within our solar system to the most distant observable galaxies in the early universe, to everything in between. Postdoctoral Research Associate Naomi Rowe-Gurney will be taking your questions about Webb and Webb science in an Answer Time session on Thursday, December 14 from noon to 1 p.m EST here on our Tumblr!

🚨 Ask your questions now by visiting http://nasa.tumblr.com/ask.

Dr. Naomi Rowe-Gurney recently completed her PhD at the University of Leicester and is now working at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center as a postdoc through Howard University. As a planetary scientist for the James Webb Space Telescope, she’s an expert on the atmospheres of the ice giants in our solar system — Uranus and Neptune — and how the Webb telescope will be able to learn more about them.

The James Webb Space Telescope – fun facts:

Webb is so big it has to fold origami-style to fit into its rocket and will unfold like a “Transformer” in space.

Webb is about 100 times more powerful than the Hubble Space Telescope and designed to see the infrared, a region Hubble can only peek at.

With unprecedented sensitivity, it will peer back in time over 13.5 billion years to see the first galaxies born after the Big Bang––a part of space we’ve never seen.

It will study galaxies near and far, young and old, to understand how they evolve.

Webb will explore distant worlds and study the atmospheres of planets orbiting other stars, known as exoplanets, searching for chemical fingerprints of possible habitability.

The Gif Set

The gif set is one of Tumblr’s most renowned native flora. Its essential orderly cellular structure, each gif divided from the other by a neat strip of white space, is unmistakable.

Prior to the emergence of the gif set, Tumblr users were restricted to one image per post. Hard to imagine now!

Once unbound, creativity reached an apex. Able to capture fleeting moments and showcase them in alignment, the linear strictures of digital video were broken down. Gif-makers built a craft out of beautifying and arranging their instances of choice.

This is a prime example of Tumblr’s unique and irreplaceable ecology. Where else can one access the nearly limitless possibilities a gif set provides?

Images in motion propagate widely without any limits in many many places, but only on Tumblr are they able to all be viewed at once, in full. This simultaneity-simulacrum, silent but evocative—I believe it to be a pillar of Tumblr’s continued survival.
