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.

The patent medicines were all full of opium , and if that wasn't enough , you could also get ether and pure heroin in any corner drug store.

Everyone is burning coal at home and at work too, so you're inhaling fumes and toxic ash every day of your life. You could be a housewife and still get black lung. Also , if your chimney got blocked you'd die of carbon monoxide poisoning in the night, but luckily you could just pay a child chimney sweep a few pennies to climb up inside the flue and clean it out.
