Tumblr coasts collide on May 7th, 8PM at M1-5.

Special guests Justine Bateman, Alan Sereboff, and Jill Kushner of FM78.tv.

(hat tip to the Ridiculous Food Society of Upstate New York for the glorious image.)

Join the Tumblr staff at M1-5 to watch the internet explode, take pictures of each other, and post them with pithy comments the next morning. We’ll kick-start it with a limited-time open bar, so equate fashionably late with fashionably sober.

Hey there, Tumblr! We’ve trying something fun today! As of now, you’ll see something new when you make a recommendation in the Tumblr Directory. Keep your eyes peeled for it!

And now, the five best Tumblrs in the entire universe:

DailyLit: Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland
The fine people at DailyLit are using Tumblr to share books in short installments so you can read them right in your dashboard. Also launching today are The Art of War and Poems by Emily Dickinson.

Great Showdowns
Scott C. illustrates some of the greatest confrontations in film history with the cutest little drawings you’ll see today.

Defaced
Vandalism may be frowned upon, but looking at photos of vandalism is fun for the whole family.

Art/Music: Indie
Indie music, indie cover art, and indie tunes. I hope including this blog doesn’t destroy all their indie cred.

Criminal Wisdom
The culture, art, and techniques of both criminals and detectives are explored in this Tumblr blog.

Visit the Tumblr Directory for more exemplary Tumblrs!

Name Ian Andersen
First post November 2009
Location Houston, TX

Ian Andersen always liked comics, but it wasn’t until he found James Kochalka’s American Elf that he started making his own. “The idea of just doing a strip a day about my own life really blew me away,” he says. Like many other cartoonists before him, he discovered that this daily routine pushed him to improve his ability in both drawing and writing. Ian has posted a daily comic for two years now, attends college, and drinks lots of coffee.
