Slayyyter on her fond memories of Tumblr: "There were artists who would hit off on Tumblr. I remember seeing like, Lana and Marina, GIFs of like M.I.A. or like random things, or like Tyler, the Creator and like the whole Supreme kind of hypebeast side. I know that there’s a lot of talk right now about people being like, oh, like so sick of the nostalgia bait and so sick out it. But I didn’t want to do things so on the nose, but I have such fond memories of Tumblr and a simpler time of the internet, that’s it’s just something I wanted to lean into without like going too, flower crown, studded shorts with it."
