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.

A small fraction of tv is full romance

(though most tvs shows have some romance in them, that's a separate problem)

Feels like 80-90% of pop songs are about love/sex/lust/relationships

The point of the joke was that you're choosing listen to the pop songs about romance. I guess a better analogy would have been "why does every candy have chocolate in it?"

Most people like love, most people like chocolate. They're in a lot of popular things because they're popular but they're far from the only option

Like 50% of the music I listen to is in stores and restaurants and other such avenues, so not really no :(

Make the other half something else lol

I listened to music all day and I don't think there was a single love song
