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

What was the name of the law that states that if techbro starts inventing a new form of transportation, they will always come up with shittier form of train given enough time
Thomas the Techbro Theorem
Lmao this is a recurring joke in AdamSomething's video essays.
"Cities of the future" with thousands of suspended, individualized cars on thin rails propelled by their own motors. New shiny dedicated roads with tons of individualized, but linked, passenger cabins. Heck, the hyperloop scam!
But hoo boi don't you dare say train. It sounds so... communal.
Really shows what these lofty designers think of the public they're allegedly designing for.
