Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

I'm seeing some conflicting reports indicating that study might have been canceled, there's conflicting information from different sources. Still awful that this was even considered in the first place.

I found this Guardian Article pretty comprehensive. In includes and explains the uncertainty about the status.

Because I've seen conflicting reports and I don't want to inadvertently spread misinfo.
