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.

Something that has taken me far to long to realize is that for me at least, I stink far far far less when wearing natural fabrics.
A polyester t-shirt can have me reek if I sweat the slightest bit in like an hour. But 100% natural fabrics like cotton, wool, or linen are way better for making me not stink.
I've noticed this as well. Even a cotton poly blend will be noticably stickier by the end of the day. In the winter, if I don't do anything too exerting or slop food down the front of it, I can get a couple of days out of a good cotton shirt.
I recently got a job where I have to wear this awful poly button down, and the thing gets so stinky so fast. Just one of the reasons I hate that shirt.
I hate unnatural plastics because when I use them in the dryer i swear they smell like burning plastic.
You probably are, and even worse is drying polyester is a huge source of micro plastic pollution
