Anonymous: kebenda ni wey? tumblr kau ni pasai apa? kamus?

(For non-Malay speakers or, more accurately, people who speak more standard and non-bastardized Malay, the correction and translation is as follows:

Apakah ini? Tumblr kau pasal apa? Kamus?

“What is this (thing; since anon used “benda” I’m assuming kebenda is a contraction of ‘apakah’ and ‘benda’ which just doesn’t sound right in English OR Malay)? What’s your tumblr about? Dictionary?”)
