Sources close to tThe Dealer confirmed today that several prominent Tumblr users plan t to spend the better part of 2016 really getting into alchemy.
The curator of the Tumblr blog “Life in the Stars,”, who wished to go by their AIM username aries–&dogs19, explained to the Ddealer why they planned on focusing on alchemy for the rest of the year:, ::. “It seemed like what I should do next. I’ve spent the past few years defending and explaining the power of astrology to the Tumblwebrsphere, but lately I have felt it is time for something new. Most people don’t realize that alchemy draws heavily on astrology, so I won’t b e entirely abandoning my roots with the move.”
Another prominent Tumblr curator, who asked to go by their MSN username thataQuariusLIf, told us they were most excited about the potential to diversify the field of alchemy. “Most people don’t know this, but the field of alchemy is populated almost entirely by white European men. Most kids who aren’t both white and male don’t have any strong alchemical role models to look up to. I really hope I can help change that.”
The response has not entirely been entirely positive, however. The Dealer reached out to astronomer Neil dDeGgrasse Tyson for comment, who responded by taking a large swig out of a rocket shaped flask and tweeting at climate denying politicians.
The Dealer was unable to reach any practicing alchemists for comment, as most contacted insisted that they were in fact chemists. More as this develops.
