A very old post that I wrote

between_time_and_42*dusts off Dreamwidth blog* It's a long story as to WHY, but I just remembered this silly thing I wrote in 2015 (maybe 2014?) and never actually posted on Tumblr because I never finished writing it. For that matter, I still haven't finished writing it, but I think it's funny enough to share... Anyway, I'm going to post it here instead of on Tumblr because I feel safer here, and because it's become somewhat outdated (though I still stand by most of the headcanons). Here's a post called "If the Straw Hat Pirates from One Piece Had Tumblr Blogs."
Zoro
Zoro would use a very minimalist theme. His blog would have a brief description (either something like "Zoro. 19. Swordsman," or a motivational quote/proverb), but no About Me page. He would mostly just reblog pictures of swords and inexplicably tag ALL of them with "#swords." He also reblogs fitness/training stuff and the occasional stereotypical Tumblr text post, like "shout out to so-and-so" or "reblog if you think so-and-so." He might also reblog a rare social justice post. Nothing he reblogs is ever tagged, except for the swords posts and some of the fitness posts with "#ref." The only personal posts he makes are photos he takes, never involving himself or his friends but rather scenery and cool things he sees in real life. Usually those posts are either captionless or have really cryptic captions (often using quotes as captions). He is notably one of the only Straw Hats who doesn't interact with the rest of the crew (or really anyone) on Tumblr, though he follows all their blogs and likes their posts. His follower count is kept secret, which irritates Sanji a lot more than it should. He's not Tumblr famous, but has a sizable amount of followers.
Sanji
Sanji runs a very popular cooking blog that posts new recipes daily. He also often reblogs recipes and food porn. He tends to publish his asks, especially if they're compliments and ESPECIALLY if it's a woman sending those compliments. Sometimes he gets random hate asks from men, which he deletes without responding. His blog is well-organized with several pages, including an About (that has a selfie or two... or three) and a link to his sideblog. The sideblog Sanji runs is a place where he only reblogs pictures of gorgeous women. Usually he adds on to their captions with gushings of love. Occasionally he reblogs girls' selfies to give them a confidence boost (though it often comes off as creepy). Finally, Sanji also has a personal blog that he uses to communicate with people, post positive life updates, reblog more pretty girls and pictures of men's fashion/hairstyles, and sometimes make annoyed posts about how his friends are bugging him (which of course the crew reads and uses to mess with him even more). He's very affable and talkative on Tumblr and has a huge follower count on his main blog and a pretty good amount on his personal blog; however, it still kills him that Zoro MIGHT be more popular than he is and he'll never know. He's the only member of the crew with more than two blogs.
Luffy
Luffy runs a blog that is considered stupid by every single person that lays eyes on it. Everyone pretty much agrees that there are no redeeming qualities to Luffy's blog at all. They even tell Luffy to his face that his blog is trash, but he just grins and says "I know!" It's almost impossible to describe what exactly Luffy;s blog IS. Once you can get past the massive "my eyes are bleeding" assault of the main theme, you will find: memes up the wazoo (and not even clever Tumblr memes, but literal memes from like 2008-2009, most of which don't even make coherent sense), many a reblog from the "fruitsoftheape" blog and its ilk, a good third of the audio posts just being those audios that hard cut into the "JOHN CENAAAAA!" theme, YouTube poops, a shocking amount of Vines (the good, the bad, and the off-the-wall)... Basically, Luffy only reblogs shitposts and dank memes. And he likes it like that.
