Welcome to /c/Tumblr
All the chaos of Tumblr, without actually going to Tumblr.
Rule 1: Be Civil, Not Cursed
This isn’t your personal call-out post.
- No harassment, dogpiling, or brigading
- No bigotry (transphobia, racism, sexism, etc.)
- Keep it fun and weird, not mean-spirited
Rule 2: No Forbidden Posts
Some things belong in the drafts forever. That means:
- No spam or scams
- No porn or sexually explicit content
- No illegal content (don’t make this a federal case)
- NSFW screenshots must be properly tagged
If you see a post that breaks the rules, report it so the mods can handle it. Otherwise just reblog and relax.

Deodorant? More like odorant. It’s just over applied cologne/etc. by another name.
You still smell bad under that and need to take a shower, drink more water, smoke less, and eat fewer onions.
Fun fact: sweat itself doesn’t stink. Follow-up fun fact: humans make two types of sweat, and only one leads to dank body odor. Eccrine sweat glands are spread out all over your body. Apocrine sweat glands produce “stress sweat” that’s thicker and sticker, typically in moments when you’re anxious or nervous. Apocrine glands are in your armpits and taint. Bacteria love growing in this sticky sweat and are what make that typical “body odor”.

I believe that deodorant also contains stuff that kills the bacteria that cause BO.
