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.

Ah, sounds like they stole the lore from hacker hats.

Isn't it the other way around and a general fantasy trope?

Hacker hats come from old cowboy films, where you could tell who was good or bad by the colour of their hat.

I'm pretty sure hackers definitely came before witches.

Edit: I'm giving you shit. The initial joke.whooshed you, but that's okay. We're all here for fun.
