For preserving the least toxic and most culturally relevant Tumblr heritage posts.

Image descriptions and plain text captions of written content are expected of all screenshots. Here are some image text extractors (I looked these up quick and will gladly take FOSS recommendations):

-web

-iOS

-android

Please begin copied raw text posts (lacking a screenshot that makes it apparent it is from Tumblr) with:

What if oxygen is poisonous and it just takes 75-100 years to kill us?

My science teacher said he thinks that's true actually

Yeah this is actually pretty much what is going on. It's why anti-oxidants are such a big deal. Bonus fact: oxygen oxidizes stuff in your cells or, in other words, it's not toxic, just setting you in fire very slowly.

What if there are aliens out there but they subsist on entirely different substances and they're just scared as shit of us and our crazy ass hell planet? Once in a while some alien anthropologist type suggests checking out the on this inhabited planet out towards the galaxy's edge. The other aliens just look at the naive academic with horror. No!! We do not go to that world. That is where DEATH BREATHERS live. They recreationally consume poisons and are more or less composed of biological fire. Their atmosphere is made of rocket fuel. We must leave the DEATH BREATHERS in peace. Do not go there. Do not.

Human planet also had an unusual core made of iron which creates a crushing gravity. Gravity is actually so strong that even the gas that sorrounds the planet pushes on everything with a pressure of over 10 tons / m2. And when weather makes the pressure slightly less severe humans are like "I don't feel so good, the atmosphere is not crushing me nearly enough".
