I just want to get on tumblr and reblog all the Orphan Black posts. All of them. But I don't want to be sucked back into tumblr after only what? a month and a half

Oh, honey. I know. Tumblr is a void of suck. I rarely actually check my dash. I have black listed so much shit I have more strings of posts that have been blocked than actual posts I can see. And I only click on the "home" button anyway so the stupid alert that so many new posts have turned up disappears because that red tab-like thingie irritates me and I want it to go away. I just hang out in the "Orphan Black" tag (and a few other ones like "Paul x Sarah" and "The Borgias") and I click on the "like" button when the inclination strikes because PRETTY so I have the posts filed away for when I want to reblog them. Which I definitely will, because I want to continue to reblog your Tyler alphabet (because it is beautiful) at some point, but Tyler's situation has depressed me into a state of passive observation where I only lurk on Tumblr for now in the Orphan Black and Borgia tags. Which is I why I am SO grateful and thrilled to pieces you started watching and love Orphan Black as much as I do so I have someone to talk to about it until

Part 1 (Because I'm apparently very chatty today.)
There was never any real big Tyler blogs who giffed him a lot and I see a few new people and I'm just sooo possessive over Tyler ya know? I'm like, "Where were you guys when this whole fandom hated him in S2 and I was here all alone holding it down for him?" "Where were you guys when everyone switched to Klaus and there were only a few of us still loyal to Tyler?"
I totally understand how you feel about all the Johnny-come-latelies. Sure, it's always great when more people come on board to support the cause, as it were, but there's that proprietary feeling you still have. Especially after battling it out in fandom to back up the character and the way you shipped him/her for years now. It's like you've been through a war of sorts with your fellow stalwart Tyler fans and had to deal with other people just not understanding or appreciating him, and after all the casualties and betrayals, these upstarts come along saying how awesome he is. And you're all like, bitch, please, preaching

Yes, see you understand me. This is why I love and adore you. *Hugs*
The bitter, oh-so-bitter and disappointed part of me wonders what might happened if these people had understood and appreciated Tyler and been around in S2 and stuck by him in S3 and railed against Klaus and the Originals on Twitter for Plec, et al, to see if, despite Plec's huge boner for Klaus, she might have gone through with killing him off in S3 as originally planned?Oh man, I can't even imagine the awesomeness that this would have been
