At TIME.com, we’re working on a guide to the best Tumblrs out there. But we want to know what you think first.
What Tumblr can’t you live without? (Aside from ours, of course.) Whether it’s news, photography, design or just cat videos, we want to know what you follow — and why.
Reply to this post (and include the URL) with your picks. We’ll mark popular suggestions as “Readers’ Choice” in our final list, which should come out by the end of January.
As I’ve already touched on today, I have my reservations when it comes to religion. It’s a topic I’m shamefully underinformed about. I mean, I know the main things, I know the five pillars of Islam, I know why the Christians don’t like men to get sexy on each other, but my biblical knowledge is to say the least, limited.
My only experience of the bible, save for finding the creepy passion-killing Gideon’s version in hotel room bedside tables, was reading the New Testament (do you cap that?) in RE in Year 11.
We read the James I bible, and there were parts of it, I rather enjoyed. Not in a moral way — is it possible to enjoy anything in a moral way? But in a, “oh that’s nice” way. Which is the way I enjoy most things I enjoy. If that makes sense, which patently it doesn’t.

Anonymous asked: What the F*#k is Operation Margarine? You certain don't give any explanation about the title of your site. Is it a secret? Do I have to learn a funny handshake and wear a hat with a tassel in order to know, or is Operation Margarine the latest gangsta fad? Inquiring minds want to know.
It’s the name of a chapter in Roland Barthes’s Mythologies. No tassels needed, just a minor grasp of literary criticism.
