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 once wrote a very, very disrespectful post about Rod, Jane and Freddy that suggested a lot stuff that I am very, very ashamed of in hindsight.

Because the day after I posted it, I found out Freddy (Marks) had died two days before. And so I subsequently wrote an apology post, and removed the original post because as much as I am a fan of free speech, I am also a fan of doing the right thing.

They used to sing songs on 1980s British Children's TV programme Rainbow.

Rod, Jane and Freddy (wiki)

[Edit] I kind of want to know what the Rod, Jane and Freddy post was now

no really i would like to know some of their sources. like, men's clothing today is so boring and that's what i wear on stage.

On TV at least, the three of them always (to my memory) had matching or themed costumes, so I imagine it was supplied by the TV Programme - unless they made them themselves?
