But I can't be Sherlock Holmes
Aside from the fact that it would eat my life, I think the problem with me getting a Tumblr is that I would completely overthink it. I mean, the world is full of beautiful time sinks. I'd have to go through a lot of them if I were going to represent accurately the spectrum of things I find attractive to look at or interesting to think about. I don't have the time for that. I'm engaged in a job search. My free time, what there is of it, will drop spectacularly if I'm successful. The last thing I need is to get stuck into a new social media platform that requires me to spend even more hours looking at things on the internet. I keep away from Twitter for similar reasons: I am an obsessive person and I already stay awake until four in the morning writing about things. Also I do not think I naturally generate witty tags. This train of thought brought to you by the couple of people recently who've asked if I'm on Tumblr and this photobombing blowfish.

Assented. I am trying not to, for all the above-mentioned reasons, but I will certainly tell people if I do!
