Used to be "So Much Older Then", and the Tumblr address still says that. The new avatar is now the world's most famous phytoplankton, the coccolithophore Emiliania huxleyi. I have a post on it called Coccospheres up close and personal.

The tumblr-name Mucholderthen is from Bob Dylan, poet laureate of the mid to late 20th century, who sang "But I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now."
