I just discovered your site and I love it. I agree with the person who mailed you that your summaries were very helpful and clear. I write the Republican Idiots tumblr and the site's goal is to publish a picture w/ six sentences or fewer summing it up. Sometimes no summaries are necessary, sometimes more are needed. I'm telling you this because I'd like to reblog your stuff w/out your summaries but I won't do it without your permission. Obv I'd include your site as the source, though.

Thanks. That is fine with me with one caveat: Please keep the citations. Nothing bothers me more on tumblr when a photo isn’t credited to the original source. Tumblr takes care of re-blog credit but keeping the citation is appreciated. 

Good luck.

(OOTD is a non-political blog and whatever is re-blogged for political purposes - as “Republican Idiots” may do, I’m guessing - is how tumblr works, and the internet. So don’t assume I’m agreeing politically, just obeying the “Code of the Interwebs.” (Someone please write up “The Code of the Interwebs.”)
