Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:

From everything I've seen, the modern expectation of what it means to "grow up" is just validating and taking ideological ownership of the corrupt, exploitative systems of the people that fucked everything up to begin with. This expectation is largely pushed by the exploited, beaten dog victims of those systems, as misery loves company.
That's gonna be a no from me, dawg. If you want to spend most of your waking life self-flagellating for sociopathic profiteers in hopes you'll become one of their favorites, and subsisting for decades saving to finally enjoy life as a half blind, half deaf withered husk with 3 marbles left rolling around upstairs, if you make it that far, knock yourself out, grown up.
