Welcome to /c/Tumblr

All the chaos of Tumblr, without actually going to Tumblr.

Rule 1: Be Civil, Not CursedThis 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 PostsSome 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.

Superman can also rewind time, hypnotize people, telepathically control them, etc etc etc. This has nothing to do with him being able to punch real hard. It has to do with the fact that the comic character situationally has powers that make the comics make sense, else it doesn't make sense at all. He could solve any problem with the powers that appear throughout his 90 year history. So from one comic to another he suddenly has fewer powers, then the next he has tons more powers, else they literally wouldn't have a story.

wow, it's almost like his powers aren't the important part of the story!
