Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
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.
Sister Communities:
-
/c/TenForward@lemmy.world - Star Trek chat, memes and shitposts
-
/c/Memes@lemmy.world - General memes

A person's parents occupy a special place in their world, no matter the parent's beliefs or actions. Maternal grandparents raised me, didn't meet my dad until I was 20.
Dad was raised poor white-trash in a drunken, violent home. I was raised like a girl in a 50s-style sitcom house. I was already very much like dad when I met him. Wish mom and I had spent more time, but we're both self-absorbed assholes so we missed out a bit.
