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.

Fun Fact, this lifestyle was what the minimum wage was intended to provide when it was enacted. FDR talked about this. If somebody was working a full time job, then they should be able to have that standard of living. No matter what kind of job they were doing.

I'm crying.... But not of joy...

One of many reasons the man had such a generational run that they amended the fucking constitution to keep it from happening again and have spent the better part of 40 goddamn years tearing it all down.
