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.

We had a mathematician come to a school event in 8th grade and taught us how to turn story problems into formulas we could solve.
"What" = "X"
"is" = "="
"of" = "÷"
And so on.
I was screaming internally, "Why has no one else taught is this before?!" Still use those methods today.
Except in this case "of" = "*", so keep on your toes.
